>>1. I'm a CF programmer who doesn't use any kind of framework (okay, please let's not go off on THAT tangent). I'm a formally taught CompSci grad dude who's been using CF now for about ten years, never messed with ASP, never messed with PHP, etc... I'm just 100% CF and I roll all my own. >>2. I'm a reasonably good Javascript programmer who's done what I'd call "intermediate" JS, but nothing really super DOM heavy. >>3. I'm really interested in Ajax, but I want to learn it from a "CF Coder who uses Dreamweaver as his main IDE" point of view.
Your profile is about the same as mine, I don't use any framework, (except mine ;-) You can forget about AJAX, CFAJAX and all big theories. Just see how The HttpRequest Object works, and use it: ex: http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_http.asp It's no big deal, just keep in mind that the apparent relation to XML is just ... well apparent. You can use the functions with no XML involved. I developed some tools using it a long time ago, then I discovered that a bunch of geek started a religion about it and that they called it AJAX ;-) -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
