Training Ajax – 3 days

Class overview :

This is a server-side agnostic Ajax training class. Examples in the provided course manual are in JSP, and there are equivalent examples in the class files in PHP, ColdFusion, and Classic ASP. The focus is on the client-side aspects of Ajax (i.e., JavaScript), so, while it’s helpful to understand the server side, it’s not required or assumed.

Class goals :

Learn how Ajax and the XMLHttpRequest object work.
Learn to write cross-browser Ajax code.
Learn to use Ajax to make a call to the server without a page refresh.
Learn to modify content blocks on a page without refreshing the whole page.
Learn to use server-side form validation with Ajax.
Learn to pull down content from the server to dynamically display more content.
Learn to manipulate XML documents with JavaScript using the DOM.
Learn to manipulate XML documents with JavaScript using XSLT.
Learn to work with various JavaScript/Ajax libraries, such as Prototype, Dojo, and Scriptaculous.

Training Programming Java EE and Frameworks – 5 days

Class overview :

This course provides students hands on experience with cutting edge Java Enterprise (Java EE) technologies, creating dynamic web and enterprise applications that utilize several Java frameworks and technologies including JSP’s and Servlets, Java Persistence API (JPA), JNDI, JDBC, AJAX, Web Services, Spring and Hibernate.

Class goals :

The goal is to enable students to exploit the Java EE platform and accompanying frameworks to facilitate the development of distributed, web-enabled applications.

Students will architectural design issues as well as specific coding models for a variety of Java EE components. By working with several Java frameworks in hands on labs, students will build applications that incorporate many of the patterns commonly used in these and other Java frameworks. Upon completion of the course, students should be able to learn and effectively utilize frameworks appropriate for their application environment.

Starting with Java Server Pages and Servlets, the course then introduces some of the most widely used frameworks to provide concrete illustrations of the services available. Since coding and deployment files are standardized by the Java EE specifications, students may readily apply the skills learned in this class to write code for any compliant server, including Apache Tomcat, JBoss, WebSphere, Oracle, WebLogic and many others.

Students will learn how to utilize ANT, a flexible and powerful XML-based build utility, to compile, deploy and execute stand-alone and enterprise Java applications. They will also use ANT to execute standalone client applications that communicate with Java EE applications. Comprehensive hands-on lab exercises reinforce instructor lectures and build direct competence in the topics presented throughout the course.

Training Ajax with ColdFusion – 3 days

Class overview :

In this Ajax training course, students learn to make calls to the server with JavaScript and to manipulate XML content returned from the server. Ajax opens the door to creating sophisticated web-based applications with much more of the logic (and therefore code) is handled on the client. While Ajax allows for more dynamic and responsive applications, it changes the traditional role of JavaScript dramatically and forces developers to rethink how they write and manage JavaScript code.

Class goals :

Learn how Ajax works.
Learn to write cross-browser Ajax code.
Learn to use Ajax to make a call to the server without a page refresh.
Learn to modify content blocks on a page without refreshing the whole page.
Learn to use server-side form validation with Ajax.
Learn to move elements around the page with Dynamic HTML.
Learn to show and hide elements.
Learn to manipulate XML documents with JavaScript using the DOM.
Learn to manipulate XML documents with JavaScript using XSLT.
Learn to program in JavaScript using Object-Oriented techniques.
Learn to work with various JavaScript/Ajax libraries, such as Prototype, Scriptaculous, and Sarissa.
