AJAX and Flash.
I'm keen on the stable release of IE7 & heard recently it's availabe on bitTorrent. Want to grab a beta release soon.AJAX and Flash(incl: Flex RIA) ruling the hot debate on blog circuit quite recently. I feel, in the the happening days of web applications still focus is on the conventional tags usage of DHTML and CSS2(P).Quite recently CSS multiple background issue was doing sounds from the Opera browser dungeons. I'm curious to have a better understanding of 'CSS multiple background' theory since it's very interesting to bisect the browser in multiple background mode, which is not possible in the current versions of browsers.
Back to Ajax, I was on a short interactive process with one of the 'thin client network centric' company here in Bangalroe recently. It was a usal project and consulting focussed process.It was a good time having conversations with guys aboard. For my best surpirse, the guy on the other end had a extensive knowledge about the Ajax and the use of it in current UI applications persepective. He was discussing about the 'Ajax Data grid part' which was made public just a few days back.I am very much amused by the fact that, Dis Ajax already made a foray into conventional applications design methodology?. But the bottomlines is it's nothing new except the old wine in the new bottle. Because it's just the hybrid version of Javascript, aka Dhtml with which we're all aware about. I feel it's not a great deal, since 'light weight UI phenonmenon' is fast paced word in the global design village !
A topic which was floated by: Jesse James Garrett (Ajax) has made a phenomenal impact in the applications design area. And more over it's a accessibility & CSS2 bug bitten era!. There're abundent number of bloggers who are proactive-ly flashing light on pros & cons of :AJAX and Flash. I feel, it's right time to catch this hot topic here:
