Railo - AJAX Tags

August 27, 2009 · By Gert Franz · 10 Comments

I have just uploaded Andrea Campolonghi's current RC version of the ajax built in tags. Here's what you need to do in order to install and test the tags.First go to the Railo web administrator and add a new provider with the url: http://railoajax.org/provider.cfc (New Link - Nov 23, 2009)


After you have entered it you can test it by clicking the verify button.


If the test succeeds then you will see the AJAX tags listed in the applications of the Railo administrator. Please note that you can either install the tags globally for all web contexts (then do the above tests in the server administrator) or locally for a single web context.


If you click on the Application name (in this case 'Railo Ajax') then the details are visible.


Then you only need to click on the 'install' button in order to download and install the application. In this extension there are some example scripts which you can choose to either install or not. Have fun with Railo Ajax.

    I've been so busy I haven't had time to read blogs recently, so I'm just catching up with the latest developments. It's great to see real innovation being promoted by the Railo team - keep up the good work guys! Out of interest - is this proprietary AJAX or does it make use of one of the major JS libraries?

    James,

    we are using JQuery for the AJAX tags. It's a work Andrea Campolonghi made as a contribution to the Railo project...

    Thats great - jQuery is my JS lib of choice. Just one other question though...

    Does the extension use a local copy of jQuery, or does it use a Google hosted copy (http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxlibs/)?

    @James, why not download it and take a look?

    Besides, it's open source: you could always change it to suit your needs and submit the changes back to Andrea (project lead).

    Hi,
    you can grab a copy from public svn:
    http://code.assembla.com/railoAjaxProxy/subversion/nodes
    I suggest you to use last version from tags folder.

    With reference to my previous comment , I found solution that link given in image is correct which is below
    http://preview.getrailo.org/ExtensionProvider.cfc
    But
    http://railoajax.org/provider.cfc is incorrect

    So please remove that entry

    I added it from extension provider though then after I am not able to see it in the application. So please guide me how I can proceed.
