Step-by-step guide reveals best practices for enhancing Web sites with

Ajax

- A step-by-step guide to enhancing Web sites with Ajax.

- Uses progressive enhancement techniques to ensure graceful

degradation (which makes sites usable in all browsers).

- Shows readers how to write their own Ajax scripts instead of relying

on third-party libraries. Web site designers love the idea of Ajax--of

creating Web pages in which information can be updated without

refreshing the entire page. But for those who aren't hard-core

programmers, enhancing pages using Ajax can be a challenge. Even more of

a challenge is making sure those pages work for all users. In

Bulletproof Ajax, author Jeremy Keith demonstrates how developers

comfortable with CSS and (X)HTML can build Ajax functionality without

frameworks, using the ideas of graceful degradation and progressive

enhancement to ensure that the pages work for all users. Throughout this

step-by-step guide, his emphasis is on best practices with an approach

to building Ajax pages called Hijax, which improves flexibility and

avoids worst-case scenarios.
