Training Provided by Skills Matter Course Title: Core Ajax: Enterprise Web Development in Ajax
Course Code: AJAX-06-04
Course Duration: 4 days
Course Price: GBP 1990/delegate
Course Locations: London, Paris, Podznan, Aarhus


This intensive, 4-day Core Ajax training course teaches a scaleable way of writing robust, user-friendly and secure Ajax solutions for the Enterprise.

We will start by introducting Ajax from a business, design and coding perspective. We will then look at Ajax and The Network, consider HTTP traffic Patterns, objectt serialisation across HTTP and management and measurement of HTTP traffic. You will also learn about reverse Ajax and Enterprise Comet.

You'll then be introduced to the impact of Ajax on the User Interface, Prototype and some important Data Validation Patterns. You will also learn how to use event-driven code and callback functions and Scriptaculous.

Then, we will discuss Ajax within the context of your Enterprise Architecture. You will learn how Ajax works with SOAP and REST web services and how to use Mash-Ups to interact directly with third-party web services .
Finally, you will learn how to look after your code, with Unit Testing and Functional testing using jsUnit, TestMaker and Selenium.

Learn How To:
Apply the technologies underlying Ajax
Manage and measure HTTP traffic
Use Ajax UI libraries, including Prototype and Scriptaculous
Implement Ajax with REST and SOAP Web Services
Select and implement server-side Ajax Toolkits, such as Sajax, DWR, Backbase, JSF and GWT
Look after yoru code through UnitTesting and JavaScript code profiling
