Web users are getting tired of the traditional web experience. They get frustrated losing their scroll position; they get annoyed waiting for refresh; they struggle to reorient themselves on every new page. And the list goes on. With asynchronous JavaScript and XML, known as "Ajax," you can give them a better experience. Once users have experienced an Ajax interface, they hate to go back. Ajax is new way of thinking that can result in a flowing and intuitive interaction with the user.

Ajax in Action helps you implement that thinking--it explains how to distribute the application between the client and the server (hint: use a "nested MVC" design) while retaining the integrity of the system. You will learn how to ensure your app is flexible and maintainable, and how good, structured design can help avoid problems like browser incompatibilities. Along the way it helps you unlearn many old coding habits. Above all, it opens your mind to the many advantages gained by placing much of the processing in the browser. If you are a web developer who has prior experience with web technologies, this book is for you. </p>

读后感

对我这等菜鸟来说，也能一窥Ajax奥妙。 唯一不满的是译者的旁注太多，有炫耀的嫌疑。如果对于内文没有帮助，我觉得译者没有必要废话太多。 一点小意见。  

把书里面的东西都翻了一遍,并没有想象中的那么精彩,我觉得这本书的噱头的确不错,但是中间的内容显得很充实,但是非常不幸的是里面的代码质量不是很高,很零散,建议新手不要买此书,如果JavaScript的水品上了一个台阶,此书还是不错的进阶教程.不过如果有了一定的水品,我建议大家去...  

前面看了《Ajax基础》可以说是一种复习，总会觉得内容很基础也很必要，但不够深入。而这本《Ajax实战》则是一种延续，更全面、更深入、更让人觉得舒服.章节设计非常合理,让我爱不释手.随时都想拿起来翻看.好书! 一直关注Ajax,但真正让AJax渗透我心的就是《Ajax实战》

这本书我来回看过两三遍了，代码不敢恭维，但是一些思想的火花和AJAX的开发模式很喜欢，但是看不懂很多地方，如果大家可以在这里讨论一下读书过程中的一些细节，应该会很受用。 关于模式那里提了一大堆，我只看懂了第一条，don‘t repeat yourself 还有封装了的.net 异步类，...

用户评价

应该不错

很好的写Ajax的书，写的好的还是前面对于Ajax风格的描写部分。比如Ajax对Web应用带来的影响，"single page" web应用的大量出现等。至于具体的实现技术，比如JavaScript, XML还是看相关的手册吧

比较晦涩。也许我太低了

第一本Ajax的书籍，我把例子都调试运行了一遍。

读的是中文版（英语烂），但内容还是不错的～
