Sick of creating web sites that reload every time a user moves the mouse? Tired of servers that wait around to respond to users' requests for movie tickets? It sounds like you need a little (or maybe a lot of) Ajax in your life. Asynchronous programming lets you turn your own websites into smooth, slick, responsive applications that make your users feel like they're back on the information superhighway, not stuck on a dial-up backroad. But who wants to take on next-generation web programming with the last generation's instruction book? You need a learning experience that's as compelling and cutting-edge as the sites you want to design. That's where we come in. With "Head Rush Ajax", in no time you'll be writing JavaScript code that fires off asynchronous requests to web servers...and having fun doing it. By the time you've taken your dynamic HTML, XML, JSON, and DOM skills up a few notches, you'll have solved tons of puzzles, figured out how well snowboards sell in Vail, and even watched a boxing match. Sounds interesting? Then what are you waiting for? Pick up "Head Rush Ajax" and learn Ajax and asynchronous programming the right way - the way that sticks. If you've ever read a "Head First" book, you know what to expect: a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. "Head Rush" ramps up the intensity with an even faster look and feel. Have your first working app before you finish Chapter 1, meet up with the nefarious PROJECT: CHAOS stealth team, and even settle the question of the Top 5 Blues CDs of all time. Leave boring, clunky websites behind with 8-tracks and hot pants - and get going with next-generation web programming. "If you thought Ajax was rocket science, this book is for you. "Head Rush Ajax" puts dynamic, compelling experiences within reach for every web developer." - Jesse James Garrett, Adaptive Path. "A 'technology-meets-reality' book for web pioneers on the cutting edge." - Valentin Crettaz, CTO, Condris Technologies.
