Developing Service-Oriented AJAX Applications on the Microsoft® Platform (Developer Reference)

Make your rich Internet applications easier to write, manage, and update by leveraging ASP.NET AJAX, the Microsoft AJAX Library, and the Windows® mmunication Foundation Web programming model. With extensive code samples and guidance from an AJAX expert, you’ll learn to separate the Web services API layer and user interface—a service-oriented approach that allows you to easily add features and integrate components as your application evolves.

Discover how to:

• Employ an architecture pattern that highlights the Web services API
• Tap the AJAX Library framework, extensions, namespaces, and runtime controls
• Enable authentication, profiles, and authorization using AJAX application services
• Apply JavaScript models for object-oriented development and XSLT for client-side rendering
• Use the AJAX Library event-based programming model and component-based JavaScript architecture
• Deploy Web services and AJAX controls to Windows SharePoint Services® 3.0 and Microsoft Office SharePoint® Server 2007
