Cool Apex Integration with AJAX, YUI, Google Maps, and more. (5.65MB) Presented at: Utah Oracle Users Group (UTOUG) Date: 03/14/2008 Abstract: Years ago I used to discuss performing asynchronous activities with the hidden JavaScript page. With the improvements to JavaScript and our use of XML, Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) provides functionality we've been using for years, but it's much easier to implement now. This presentation will cover AJAX in a variety of forms. Oracle Application Express (Apex) provides a little known secret called the "On Demand" feature...which allows for AJAX calls back to the database. Google and other companies provide AJAX functionality that you can use for application integration. In this presentation you'll learn how to write your own AJAX server side code and how to make use of existing server side AJAX code. This presentation will also discuss and demonstrate how you can take a series of latitudes and longitudes and turn them into a visual map containing your data using AJAX.
