The book begins by exploring the roots of Ajax, covering how the evolution of the web and new technologies directly led to the development of Ajax techniques. A detailed discussion of how frames, JavaScript, cookies, XML, and XMLHttp requests (XHR) related to Ajax is included. After this introduction, the book moves on to cover the implementation of specific Ajax techniques. Request brokers such as hidden frames, dynamic iframes, and XHR are compared and contrasted, explaining when one method should be used over another. To make this discussion clearer, a brief overview of HTTP requests and responses is included. Once a basic understanding of the various request types is discussed, the book moves on to provide in-depth examples of how and when to use Ajax in a web site or web application. Different data transmission formats, including plain text, HTML, XML, and JSON are discussed for their advantages and disadvantages. Also included is a discussion on web services and how they may be used to perform Ajax techniques. Next, more complex topics are covered. A chapter introducing a request management framework explores how to manage all of the requests inside of an Ajax application. Ajax debugging techniques are also discussed.

Readers should have familiarity with XML, XSLT, Web Services, PHP or C#, HTML, CSS. Professional Ajax 2nd edition adds nearly 200 pages of new and expanded coverage compared to the first edition.

Book excerpt: There are summers that will change your life. There are summers that may end it. In the lush green hills beyond Florence sits the Villa Medici—a graceful pensione surrounded by manicured gardens. Rachel, a college student from an unfashionable London suburb, can’t believe her luck in landing a summer job here. Especially when she’s drawn into a circle of privileged young sophisticates, including her glamorous coworker Diana, who promises to help Rachel win the affections of handsome, confident Sebastian. But as champagne flows and rivalries fester in the Tuscan countryside, Rachel realizes that Diana has motivations of her own. Adrift in a world of backstabbing and bed-hopping, lavish parties and easy betrayal, Rachel feels the stakes rising along with the temperature until, one night, something snaps. Someone dies. And nothing will ever be the same… In this atmospheric thriller set in sun-drenched Tuscany, Lizzy Barber weaves a deadly web of manipulation and desire that will keep readers enthralled until the breathtaking last page.

Book Conversations in Philosophy

Download or read book Conversations in Philosophy written by Ed Brandon and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-05 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection of essays in this anthology is divided into three categories, namely “social epistemology”, “epistemology”, and “freedom”, respectively. The first category addresses questions related to the social dimensions of knowledge. Various issues are interrogated, including the lack of attention to testimony in much standard philosophizing, the need for advocacy, and the role of history-making in social reconstruction. The second category deals more directly with some of the concepts that generally crop up in the theory of knowledge, provoking questions such as: How much do we really know about each other? What is the content of the knowledge we think we have, and how far does it depend upon our social being? What is the relationship between knowledge and truth? Essays in the third category deal with the concept of freedom both at a personal and a social level and discuss dilemmas such as: To what extent are some of the arguments put forward in favour of genetic determinism flawed or sensible? Does the idea of genetic influence pose a threat to freedom? What is the area within which the subject is, or should be left to do, or be, without interference from other persons? In this era of globalization, is cosmopolitanism or communitarianism by itself sufficient for promoting freedom? Conversations in Philosophy: Knowledge and Freedom is the second book in a series, based on a selection of papers presented at the annual Cave Hill Philosophy Symposium. The first book, Conversations in Philosophy: Crossing the Boundaries (published in 2008, also by Cambridge Scholars Publishing) consisted of essays that revolved around the question of the nature and meaning of philosophy. This second volume of Conversations in Philosophy offers a careful and balanced examination of many issues that recur in discussions on knowledge and freedom. The essays are thoughtful, provocative, and challenging.

Book OOP   Java 8

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rudolf Pecinovsky
  • Publisher : Tomas Bruckner
  • Release : 2016-12-13
  • ISBN : 8087924053
  • Pages : 383 pages

Download or read book OOP Java 8 written by Rudolf Pecinovsky and published by Tomas Bruckner. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Majority of introductory courses of the object oriented programming presents a number of object constructions and syntax rules in certain programming language. However, mostly they do not illustrate the explained subject matter on the development of some non-trivial program, which would contain at least 20 mutually connected and cooperating classes.This book tries to fill this gap. It should serve as a basis for repeating the lessons and, at the same time, as a guide leading the students step by step through the development of the text conversation game (adventure), which should correspond to a set of conditions. Simultaneously it should help them to learn how to work with external libraries and frameworks.In the explanation, the passages describing what should be solved alternate with those going through the theory, how similar problem classes are solved, and with those entering the real steps for solving the assigned problem.The application described in this book as well as the framework on which the application stands can be a reasonable inspiration for teachers who search an example for exercise not only at universities but also at a number of secondary schools teaching programming.
