Painless AJAX, it’s DWR

So I did my first adventure into the world of AJAX today. Nothing fancy, just a lookup on the server for the name of the area based on the zip code. DWR made it all a breeze. I spent a little time figuring out the config, but the amount of config and amount of code I had to do was extremely small. And thanks to the Spring integration it initialised and served up one of my simpler DAOs just like that, no changes to it.

I’m not really that experienced in JavaScript, so this would probably take me ages without DWR. Excellent lib!

Amazing taglib for displaying data in tables

Ever needed to present a bunch of data in tables and started to get sick of using logic:iterate ? Then you need to try the <display:*> library. Just send in your array of data and it displays everything in nice tables.

If you need to customize the look & feel you just write your own decorator. Cool stuff! 🙂
