The *biggest* thing is that you must understand what jQuery is and does. If you try understanding how to work with jQuery by only looking at the Seaside binding, you _will_ get lost. Sorry if I try to stress too much, but I think this is where most Smalltalkers are going wrong: they don’t take a look at the jQuery documentation. So… my advice is: read jQuery documentation and examples, then take a look at how Seaside binds to that library. I’m sure you will understand.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">And I’m happy to answer questions if you have any on the road :)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Johan</div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 22 Apr 2015, at 18:34, Hilaire <<a href="mailto:hilaire@drgeo.eu" class="">hilaire@drgeo.eu</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class="">Hi,<br class=""><br class="">This is a newbie question:<br class=""><br class="">What is the Seaside extension and documentation a beginner should look<br class="">at regarding state of the start Ajax with Seaside?<br class="">I read Scriptaculous, JQuery, Bootstrap but I don't know what to look at<br class="">first and where to spend try & test time on.<br class=""><br class="">Thanks a lot<br class=""><br class="">Hilaire<br class=""><br class="">-- <br class="">Dr. Geo - <a href="http://drgeo.eu" class="">http://drgeo.eu</a><br class="">iStoa - <a href="http://istoa.drgeo.eu" class="">http://istoa.drgeo.eu</a><br class=""><br class=""><br class="">_______________________________________________<br class="">seaside mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:seaside@lists.squeakfoundation.org" class="">seaside@lists.squeakfoundation.org</a><br class="">http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside<br class=""></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
