Release NotesOf all the Ajax-specific frameworks, libraries, and toolkits that have popped up
in recent years, only Dojo has emerged as a prime contender. This JavaScript
toolkit can literally revolutionize the way you develop web applications, and
Dojo: The Definitive Guide demonstrates how to create ultra-portable widgets
that you can easily share or roll out on any web server. Widgets have become a
highly popular expression of Ajax, enabling developers to build small real-time
data applications that web masters and users can import into any web page --
applications that offer up-to-date stock quotes, weather, surveys, dictionaries,
and more. Dojo is best known for the impressive number of platform-independent
widgets it provides, but, like many open-source projects, its documentation is
not always complete. Dojo: The Definitive Guide offers you a complete
introduction along with a thorough, hard-hitting reference to this toolkit. You
will learn how to create complex layouts and form controls closely resembling
those found in the most advanced desktop applications. This book: Offers a
