AjaxToaster Description

AjaxToaster will allow users to write web services for Ajax applications. It lets you turn an XMLtoaster script into a web service instantly and provides a simple framework for writing ad-hoc web services. It is designed so that configuration and maintenance is as simple as possible. Todays modern web applications can be written using one of the new JavaScript libraries that provide a rich user experience, often equal to a locally installed traditional fat client application. Part of the power behind this approach is that the applications use a design pattern known as “Ajax” (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) which allows the client to interact with the server without reloading the web page. For an Ajax client to provide really useful functionality it must normally interact with a relational database on the server, which is when things can become complicated very quickly. AjaxToaster allows clients to get data from a database and save data to a database simply by passing an HTTP request to a URL. It does this by linking the URL to an “XMLToaster” script which provides the power to extract/update relational database data. This tutorial will cover some of the basics of the XMLToaster, but for more in depth coverage please look at the XMLToaster tutorial on the www.inverse2.com web site. And just in case you are thinking that by using XMLToaster we are restricted to only using XML data then there is no need to panic... AjaxToaster can serve up your data as either XML or JSON.
