Greg;AJAX is a client side technology based on JavaScript, however IceBreak ships with an implementation that is available in all server instances which makes it more easy to play with. You don't have to install DOJO or what ever AJAX framework out there ....
midrange.com
A small client code looks like:
____________________________________________________________
<html>
<script language="JavaScript1.2" src="System/Scripts/ajax.js"></script>
<body>
<input type=button
value='Click here to run the Ajax request'
onclick="adAjaxCall('myresult','http://icebreak.org:60000/ajaxServer.asp?manuid=SONY');"
/>
<div id=myresult></div> </body> </html> ____________________________________________________________So when you click on the button a round trip to the server is made by the adAjaxCall function. The RPG ASP program ajaxServer.ASP is called and the result is in this case placed in the div tag "myresult"
.. You only have to include the ajax.js from the system/script directory .. Pure magic ...
The server side, by the way, is in this case building a small table. So by using AJAX you can build your pages with small components instead of making big monolithic pages. Ajax runs faster and performs better ... I'm and AJAX fan 100%
The server side:
_____________________________________________________________
<%
F*Filename+IPEASFRlen+LKlen+AIDevice+.Keywords+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Comments++++++++++++
Fproduct1 if e k disk
d pmanuid s like(manuid)
/free
*inlr = *on;
pmanuid = qrystr('manuid');
%>
<table>
<%
chain pmanuid productr;
dow not %eof(product1) and manuid = pmanuid;
%><tr>
<td><% = prodid %></td>
<td><% = desc %></td>
</td>
<%
read productr;
enddo;
%>
</table>
_____________________________________________________________
This is simple stuff. Taking the manufacturer id from the query string (the
URL-parameter) and read all related records. Producing the HTML table - and
only the table. This is the trick with Ajax - it is only the table component
there are build in this program. This program has no idea of how the result
are styled and in which context it is used.

There was an add in the Salem paper sometime back (before the move to Paris) for a Perl programmer. Maybe in a different department? We're new to the Weband we only have a few dynamic pages being served right now. I was allowed to make use of my past experience and do them in Perl. If I could, I'd eat Perl for breakfast instead of Wheaties. Hope I didn't spook you. We're located just on the other side of I57 from NAL's Salem facility. Iappreciate your responses. It's very helpful to get an opinion from someonewho isn't selling but using.

I have no experience with AJAX but I am interested in hearing your opinion on different Web development options. I'm new to this list and I've read some of the recent threads. I know that you have been doing some research and some hands-on experimenting. Have you decided on CGIDEV or still looking? Have you looked at other RPG-based solutions like IceBreak, RPGsp, JACi400, etc.? Please excuse me for expanding this thread.
