AJAX and PHP Bootcamp

The best PHP and DB Conference of 2006php/db|works 2006 Session Schedulephp/db|works 2006 Session Synopsis Index → AJAX and PHP Bootcamp

Speaker: Christian Wenz
Start time: Tuesday @ 09:00
Duration: 3 hours
Talk synopsis: This tutorial covers all you wanted to know about AJAX (in combination with PHP, of course) and did not dare to ask: Opportunities, caveats, hacks, and tools.

AJAX revived both JavaScript and those in the industry who still master this language. However AJAX applications will be buried again soon when some common pitfalls are not avoided (for instance: bookmark support, working back/forward browser buttons).

This session features a thorough introduction to the necessary JavaScript for AJAX applications, problems and solutions, code, and a quick look at PHP packages that facilitate the creation and maintenance of AJAX websites.

Interfacing Ajax and PHP (#285)
By Mr. Elasu Moses McLean on 2006-08-12 15:19:21

Am developing an information system for a university here in Kampala, Uganda. I want to interface it with PHP, MYSQL and Ajax but the problem i have is that am in need of an Ajax book that i will read to help me implement this. Recently i was asked to present what i had to the Heads of Department and they were impressed with my work of php and mysql now i want to add there ajax and prevent the effect of having pages to refresh. i want it to be just like the way the comments section on this site appears.
Looking forward to hearing from you

I will suggest for you to visit this site:
http://ajaxpatterns.org/

About interfacing Ajax with PHP is quite the same that with any other back end program, you just point to an url that implement some kind of web service. There are frameworks that can help you but you don't really need them. (check: http://ajaxpatterns.org/PHP_Ajax_Frameworks)

Ajax Patterns have a great deal of best practices, solutions and links to other sites that will help to develop your solution.

Hope this help, Hernan
