Chris,
We use the DojoJSONServiceEventHandler in our controller.xml file to make
service request via an AJAX client. The client specifies the service name
and appropriate parameters. Then the handler returns a json string back to
the client. We've like using json for many things as it is lighter than RMI
and easy to parse.
Sample controller elements:
<handler name="dojojson" type="request"
class="org.ofbiz.webapp.event.DojoJSONServiceEventHandler"/>
.....
<request-map uri="getTestQuestions">
<security https="true" auth="true"/>
<event type="dojojson" invoke="getTestQuestions"/>
<response name="success" type="none" value="CommonContentAdmin"/>
</request-map>
