Course Details

Transform the way your Web applications look and feel! With Ajax programming, you can create applications that provide levels of responsiveness previously unheard of on the Web. In fact, you can use Ajax to develop Web applications that behave and respond just like desktop applications.

In this course, you'll learn each of the technologies that Ajax is composed of. We'll spend several lessons digging into JavaScript, a programming language essential to Ajax. You'll discover the wonders of the Document Object Model (DOM), cascading style sheets (CSS), the XMLHttpRequest object, extensible markup language (XML), and PHP scripting. Together, these technologies are what give Ajax its power.

Along with every lesson is a project application that we'll create together. Each application will give you hands-on practice with the technologies you'll be learning. By the time the course is finished, you'll be able to create your own Ajax applications to give your Web site faster and more streamlined functionality. Also, since Ajax skills are highly prized, you will be in a great position to begin a new career as an Ajax programmer.
