Share with CakePHP´s community
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!).
http://www.htmli.com/I didn´t use it yet, but it seems nice!

Re: Share with CakePHP´s community
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 (= jQuery)

Re: Share with CakePHP´s community
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.

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 ; ).

Oh definitely! I've not touched Prototype/Scriptaculous since somebody
mentioned jQuery to me. There is nothing wrong with them, and both of
those libraries have brought a lot of good things to the universe, but
jQuery is a couple steps above on the evolutionary ladder of JS code.
My own experience was that when I first converted one of my projects
from prototype to jQuery, I instantly cut my current JS code in half.
This was before I really knew most of what jQuery could do. Now the JS
code of this project is probably 1/4th or 1/5th of it's original size.
Or to express it with the a quote from a recent discussion on the
jQuery mailing list:
Dave Methvin wrote:

Using jQuery has had a hugely positive effect on my JS coding. But more
then that, it actually changed my attitude towards the language itself.
Before jQuery I thought Javascript was doomed to produce ugly spaghetti
code, and even the cool ajax stuff wouldn't change that. Well now I
actually really started to like the language and have learned a lot
more about it and it's been great fun.
Anyway, I just noticed that I sound like one of those technology
evangelists who spent more time talking about the technology they love
then actually using it. So please go ahead and give jQuery a try, you
won't regret it ; ).

Amen to that, brother. I've been using jQuery for all my latest
Ajax-related needs and like the small footprint it offers as well.
The compact version of jQuery is under 19K in size. I used it to do
some neat effects on a pop-under ad for our forum sites at work (it's
known as a 'catfish').
Smaller and simpler is better in this case. I wish someone would
hurry up with jQuery helpers for Cake (I know, I know, I had talked
about it in the past but my spare time isn't so spare any more).

Re: Share with CakePHP´s community
Thanks Felix, I do love finding someone passionate about something :-)
I have found a few plug-ins in JQuery that could be immediately useful
to me (like table sorting, tabs, and menus to name a few). The basic
functionality looks good too.
The next question is: have you put together any Cake Helpers for JQuery?
Or do you just code it straight in your pages?

How so? I've heard good news about jQuery, but why do people like it
better (besides footprint)?

Maybe that's just lines. The main thing I don't like about JQuery is

I that's partly due to the train-wrecked-ness of the library.
Prototype isn't overly verbose - most calls to that (or
scriptaculous) are one liners in my experience. Sure there's times
when you want to chain things or queue events...
Well, there's that, and Prototype usage isn't much like vanilla DOM
scripting.

Re: Share with CakePHP´s community
If you like the view-based js approach in cake, the head helper is still doing a very good job. Jquery rocks ! On 12/11/06, Langdon Stevenson <langdon@...> wrote:

Hey John,
here it comes, the ultimate why jQuery beats prototype post:
Maybe that's just lines. The main thing I don't like about JQuery is
ThatMany.linesOfCode(endup).lookingLikeA(TrainWreck);
Ok here is the deal. jQuery is like a big bucket that captures DOM
elements (and objects in some cases). You fill this bucket by providing
a selector for elements to match. This can be done using CSS selectors,
XPath and some custom expressions (more below). After that you start to
manipulate the bucket. This means adding classes and setting
attributes, but also appending and removing nodes as well as filtering
things out of the bucket or adding new items to it. Each of this
operations returns it's results in form of a new bucket that can be
further manipulated. Let me show you a little example:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$('p').addClass('updated')
.append('<span>This paragraph has just been
updated!</span>')
.filter('p:hidden').show()
.appendTo('div#hidden-paragraphs');
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This little snippet will do the following things:
- Fill the 'bucket' with all <p> elements in the document
- Add the class 'updated' to them
- Append a <span> stating this at the end of the paragraphs
- Filter the bucket for <p> elements that used to be hidden
and show them
- Move these previously hidden <p> elements in the DOM and
append them to a div called 'hidden-paragraphs'.
Now please feel free to come up with a prototype example for this, but
to me the train wreck style is the heart of jQuery. It is very
simple to understand and allows you to to very advanced things with
very little code. I first was a little hesitant about using it, but now
I truly love it!
Superior Design & Philosophy
jQuery's philosophy is all about typing less, doing more and
keeping things intuitive. Prototype fails at that. The best example
showing how jQuery's pragmatic approaches beat Prototype is updating an
element via AHAH (ajax):
Prototype:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
var myAjax = new Ajax.Updater('elmentId', url, {method: 'get',
parameters: params, onSuccess: myCallback});
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
jQuery:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$('#elementId').load(url, params, myCallback)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now and this is only updating 1 element. Updating several elements with
jQuery is just as easy:
jQuery:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$('ul li.update-me').load(url, params, myCallback)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This will update all <li> elements that have the class
'update-me' within a <ul> element with the data recieved from
'url'. In Prototype you would need to do a loop and create several
instances of the Ajax.Updater to do this.
Intuitive
element selection
Prototype does best when working with elements you know the id of.
jQuery however leverages the full power of CSS, XPath and custom
selectors to make DOM traversing the easiest thing in the world. You
don't believe me? Check out the following resources:
Also check out this Zebra
Table Showdown
where almost all big JS libraries are compared on the task of
highlighting every second row in a table. Here is the jQuery vs.
Prototype example:
Prototype
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$A(document.getElementsByTagName("table")).each(function(table){
$A(table.getElementsByTagName("tr")).each(function(row,i){
if ( i % 2 == 1 )
Element.addClassName( row, "odd" );
});
});
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
jQuery
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$("tr:nth-child(odd)").addClass("odd");
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
jQuery has a build-in plugin system
jQuery has some neat conventions used by other developers to create
plugins for it. It's not like a framework, but it certainly had an
educational effect on the Users of jQuery and I really like it:
http://jquery.com/docs/Plugins/Authoring/
Prototype has no standard like this and therefor different widgets take
very different approaches which makes it less convenient to implement
them.
jQuery has a great community and a lot of good plugins
jQuery has a very active community (especially the mailing list which has more messages then
CakePHP's). Prototype definitely lacks that. This community has also
produced a great amount of useful
plugins, some of the best are:
- The Interface library.
It's kind of scriptacoulus for jQuery and has lot's of goodies.
- Thickbox is
jQuery's answer to Lightbox.
- The history
plugin makes it very easy to make the back button work with AJAX
- An excellent corner plugin
that let's you create existing boundaries for your content
jQuery has awesome documentation
Unlike prototype where the best information seems to be the reference,
jQuery has excellent documentation:
So if all of this has not convinced you yet, simply go over to jQuery.com,
download the code and do a little test ride. It's free but I'm almost
certain it will convince you to buy into the jQuery philosophy ; ).
Let me know what you think John ; ).

The Interface library is probably what you are looking for: http://interface.eyecon.ro/.
I'm not sure if it has every single animation Scriptaculous does
because I'm not into using JS as Flash that much (^^), but I think it
should have the most important things. But writing your own effects is
very easy as well, so if you are missing something let me know what you

The Interface library is probably what you are looking for:
http://interface.eyecon.ro/. I'm not sure if it has every single animation
Scriptaculous does because I'm not into using JS as Flash that much (^^),
but I think it should have the most important things. But writing your own
effects is very easy as well, so if you are missing something let me know
what you need and I'll see what I can do ; ).

Re: JQuery and Prototype [was Re: Share with CakePHP´s community]
Have you evaluated what is the impact of using JQuery *instead of* prototype
with CakePHP? Impact = needed changes
I've never used, and never will use the CakePHP Ajax helper. This is
not because it's bad, but because it is doomed to create inline JS and
therefor is more targeted at JS beginners. If you want to do a real JS
project, you are going to have your own JS files where all your code
rests.
Therefor jQuery has only saved me work and not added any because of
CakePHP. jQuery ajax calls are also recognized by the RequestHandler
component, so no trouble there either.

Creating inline JavaScript!?! Perish the thought!
You must have missed the announcement:
http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/44212b3da1159961/d4f559fecb58d1c7And those features are being enhanced in 1.2, so that <script /> tags
for code written to external files are automagically written to <head
/>.

RE: Share with CakePHP´s community
Hey Emiliano, what newspaper was it? Since it was Monday I'm assuming La
Nacion, am I right? Was this the article?
http://buscador.lanacion.com.ar/Nota.asp?nota_id=866485&high=htmli(non-spanish bakers: link in Spanish)
Felix & JQuery, what a work of evangelism ;)

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.
