Are you an end user? Me too. Xul is as you know, ideal for Puppy but what of those like John Murga who prefer Opera?

They might find Ajax programs and its methodology of interest.
Like javascript it is a kludge BUT (and it is a big but) it works. It also works from all modern browsers . . . neat.

Works, works for me . . .

Anyone programming in this style or considering it - can it be done from Puppy?

There is an Article about that in current c't -magazine in Germany.

Unfortunately not available online, but here are some links they refer to:

http://www.adaptivepath.com/publication ... 000385.php
http://www.ajaxpatterns.org/Ajax_Frameworks
http://www.ajaxmatters.com

I think the google-links are mentioned as examples.

I did not have a look at Ajax yet.

I had tried using Ajax to implement a search page for Puppy that can search both the forum and the wiki (in one search box), as mentioned somewhere by klhrevolutionist. Well...that's too difficult (for me

) and I gave up...

Another way to do it would be using frames, seems not as nice as Ajax thou.

An example of a meta-search engine using Ajax:

Glad it was of use - maybe some dojo training would also be useful . . .

From what I understand XUL is preferable, being far more secure but to get a system up and running might be more of a priority and all those great services that enhance the web also enhance Puppy and all our possibilities.

XUL is better and does more than Ajax but . . .

Until Flock, FireFlock and Mozilla rule we have to go with Ajax - and for offline use Puppy serves us so well
