Real World Ajax: 3hr Tutorial, 1:00pm-4:00pm
- In this section you will hit the ground running as you get prepared for even more advanced topics that come later in the tutorial. Learn how to take the XMLHTTP Request object and wrap it into a component that can be used as a reusable Ajax engine for streamlining future requests.
- Learn how to bridge the gap between the front and back end of your web applications without refreshing the page. In this section you will learn how to create a bridge file with PHP and leverage it to make Ajax requests for basic database interactions.
- Once you have the Ajax-enabled database interactions under your belt it will be time to take some of the strain off of your server. In this section you will learn how to cache duplicate XML responses and only update them when it is absolutely necessary.
- Security is a simple step that is missing in most Ajax-enabled web applications. The risks of having no security in a database-enabled Ajax application are critical. Learn how to take a few quick steps to ensure that the requests coming to your server are safe.
