- Widgets within Widgets - Higgins for President
At the day-job we do a lot of Widget work. We have Container widgets that hold Panel widgets, which hold Box widgets, which hold other widgets. The widgets themselves create other widgets and place them in their own ownership. Our full-page/no-refresh/Ajax-app with the long lived page views creates and destroys all these widgets based on the various events published around the page, but we ran into a problem along the way: a lot of the widgets weren't being destroyed. Ever. The whole system is quite sound, though lacked in this one regard. To be fair, Dijit cleans up after itself. Everything that is created when a Dijit widget instance is new'd up is removed when that instance is destroyed. Everything that is created declaratively in a template is cleaned u

- Web 2.0 Development and Business Lessons: Dojo Package Loading Hacks and Best Practices
One of key strengths of the Dojo Toolkit is its class system and package loader. It allows you to neatly structure your code and load classes on demand when they are needed. While the package loader is fairly straightforward on the surface, there are a few nuances that are worth exploring. It's also important to understand how best to structure your classes and when to load them so that you optimize not only the load time, but also the users perception of load time. This article assumes you understand the basics of the dojo.provide and dojo.declare functions as its focus is the dojo.require function which does the actual loading. If you're not too familiar with them, I refer you to the this article from DojoCampus before you proceed any further.

- Zooming, Scrolling, and Panning in Dojo Charting
As mentioned in my previous post Dojo Charting Reorganization, this week I worked on zooming, scrolling, and panning of charts. It turned out to be a more complex task than I anticipated due to the little-known fact that Dojo Charting can stack multiple plots per chart and can show multiple independent axes on all 4 sides of the chart. These problems were solved and a new API was introduced on the chart object

- Dojo from the ground up, Part 3: Creating rich user interfaces with the Dijit component framework
The Dojo toolkit lets Web application developers create Rich Internet Applications by offering a wide variety of features that save development time and effort. From DOM helpers and Ajax to a full-blown widget library and object-orientation features, Dojo includes virtually everything you need to build large-scale Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (Ajax)-powered Web applications. If the functions you are looking for are not included in Dojo itself, it's highly likely that you can find it in DojoX, a repository of extensions and experimental features that are not included in the Base or Core modules of the toolkit. In Part 3 of this three-part series on developing rich web-based applications using the Dojo toolkit, learn about the Dijit rich user interface.

- Create Awesome Pie Charts From PHP Arrays Using Dojo Charting | Tech Chorus
In the previous articles I've written about using Dojo date pickers and filteringSelect widgets. If you are a PHP programmer with little or no JavaScript experience, you can take advantage of the integration of Zend Framework and Dojo Toolkit to build great user interfaces without writing a single line of JavaScript. In this article I will demonstrate how to create awesome pie charts from simple PHP arrays. Check out the demo page to see how our pie chart looks. We draw a pie chart of the types programmers in an obviously fictitious development team.

- On Rolling Your Own - rmurphey
There’s been a lot of activity around my last post, On jQuery & Large Applications. A number of people have asked me why, exactly, I’m so opposed to using jQuery as part of a roll-your-own solution.

- On jQuery & Large Applications - rmurphey
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about JavaScript applications. As my skills have evolved, I’ve had the privilege of working on more actual applications, and I’ve gotten further and further from clients who want to add a bit of Ajax or bling to an otherwise fairly traditional web site. The most interesting applications I work on are client-side intensive: the server is responsible for providing data as JSON to the client, and most everything else — templating, state management, data management, site navigation, and of course user interaction — is left to the client side.
