Re: Share with CakePHP´s community

Hi Emiliano,

yeah I certainly don't read any Argentinian news papers. Heck I rarely read the German ones either. But that's because the major media outlets these days are either dull and don't question the things they talk about, or are so full of [...] that it'd be a waste of time to read them as well ; ). Anyway even so that might just have been a bad preparation to my next sentence: I'm always interested in trying out and reading about new technologies. There is a lot of good stuff out there that has yet to get the audience it deserves and I'd be a shame for it to loose momentum because of a lag of international marketing.

But in this case my advise for you to go with jQuery stays, I think it's really the best option out there right now ; ).

Felix, thanks for the reply. As I`m not a AJAX guy (almost neither a
PHP coder), I thought it could be a good thing to share what an
argentinian newspaper show today in their pages (not many bakers read
argentinian newspapers).

I will follow your advice and learn JQuery.

Hi emiliano,

I looked at it and besides the fact that I got some JS errors while
browsing (with FF 1.5) I think this is not really an 'Ajax Framework'.
It seems to be more like a XLS parser that tries to extend HTML via
Javascript (using ajax of course). To me this ignores the nature of the
web. All code resulting from using this will be broken when the user has
JS disabled (their homepage sure is), most likely be unsemantic /
inaccessible, and worst of all highly CPU hungry. Besides that the
entire thing seems to be pretty verbose, and I dislike things that
require me to type a lot (if it doesn't improve readability or has other
benefits).

Ok, I really don't want to bash your local fellows, they've probably
spent a lot of their time on this. But as a true jQuery evangelist (it's
my second religion after CakePHP), I have to post this little link for
you so you can make up your mind for yourself:

http://www.jquery.com

It's all about writing less and doing more. Or as Paul Graham would say:
succinctness = power <http://www.paulgraham.com/power.html> (= jQuery)

I would like to share a "AJAX Framework" that I discovered today while
reading a national newspaper. It´s open source and it was created by
some guys from my university (but I don`t know them!).

I didn´t use it yet, but it seems nice!
