The third podcast in this series of Ajax Programming Patterns. The 29-minute podcast covers five patterns. As with the previous podcast, there is reason for concern about the audio quality herein. Firstly, three patterns on DOM population - taking server response data and displaying it or storing it in the DOM:
- XML Data Island Retain XML responses as "XML Data Islands", nodes within the HTML DOM.
- Browser-Side XSLT Apply XSLT to convert XML Messages into XHTML.
- Browser-Side Templating Produce browser-side templates and call on a suitable browser-side framework to render them as HTML.
The second group of patterns (representing a different chapter in the Ajax Design Patterns book) are a couple of generic Javascript patterns to make the code more maintainable and portable:
- Server-Side Code Generation Automatically generate HTML and Javascript from server-side code.
- Cross-Browser Component Create cross-browser components, allowing programmers to reuse them without regard for browser compatibility.
