Question. Does django help developers by writing some of the AJAX code, as it helps them with HTML and SQL? If not, is there sample code to suggest a path? AJAX may not be needed for newspaper-type sites, but quite a few potential django sites need the snappy and small-grained interface that AJAX provides. Write me down as someone who would like to see AJAX support ... and, of course, feel free to delete this comment if it's ill-placed or irrelevant. -- Dan Kelley In case you're watching this page, I suggest taking this to the mailing list, as the Wiki isn't exactly a discussion venue. It's available on Google Groups: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/ -- there are already a few good threads on AJAX support. Django already provides [http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/serialization/ serializers to JSON and XML]. Django allows you to easily pick your own JS toolkit. == Resources == * Somebody said this link: http://www.kelvinism.com/tech-blog/simple-ajax-django/ * Another similar link (but more indepth) is http://www.willarson.com/blog/?p=36 * Reusing forms to do AJAX validation: http://toys.jacobian.org/presentations/2007/oscon/tutorial/#s67 * Doing server-side form validation with Dojo: (old-school style): [wiki:AJAX/Dojo/RefactoredFormSubmit] * Easy to use AJAX libraries for Django: http://www.dajaxproject.com
