Using AJAX with portlets

02-Feb-2007

An interesting technical article on the Sun Developer Network provides helpful tips on applying AJAX to JSR 168 portlets. The article concludes that, "Indisputably, limitations and caveats exist in programming AJAX with respect to JSR 168 portlets," and offers a sample that bundles the Dojo Toolkit. Together with most other vendors, Sun is also behind the new and delayed portlet standard, a.k.a. JSR 286, which according to the article "is evaluating solutions to better support portlets that make asynchronous calls with AJAX." As readers of the recently updated Enterprise Portals Report know, the presentation layer should be one of the first things you test -- and implement -- in any portal project.
