I have been working on a ColdBox application for a few months now, which has a lot of Ajax calls when a user is signed in. The one thing that I have not really handled, is how do I tell the browser that the users session has timed out.
ExtJS can make this very easy, and the code that I am showing will work in both ExtJS and ExtJS Core.

In a previous post I talked about how there isn't much of a difference between ExtJS Core and jQuery, and today I am going to go through some of the syntax used for doing some DOM work in both.
Before I go and discuss this I would like to also point out one thing, only because I am not sure people are actually aware that ExtJS Core is a completely separate package to ExtJS. As with jQuery it is also very free to use in your applications.

There is a lot of support on both sides to this argument, and one that really at the end of the day comes down to user preference. One of the myths that does surround extJS is that it has a huge footprint and is bloated, this is not true and in fact ExtJS Core is not that much bigger than jQuery.
The decision to use either is really down to personal preference and the support that each of these products do offer, as well as what type of application you are looking at developing.
if you are looking at just doing simple DOM manipulation then both have their strengths, and are of around the same footprint in terms of size. Personally I think ExtJS also offers a lot more out of the box and which can attribute to its slighter higher file size difference.
So what is best for me in terms of development.

In my second instalment to writing and using ExtJS that comes with ColdFusion, I am going to begin by building a custom widget that can retrieve Frequently Asked Questions from the server, based on what the user enters as a search Criteria.

This is the beginning of a series of tutorials that I will be writing that shows how to use ExtJS that comes with ColdFusion, in both ColdFusion 8 and 9.

I thought I would post this very quick Ajax tutorial and how easy it is to use, without using any extra frameworks or JavaScript libraries that don't already come with ColdFusion.
