Do you wish to eliminate the time involved in writing JavaScript code and managing JavaScript-compatibility between browsers to build an AJAX web application quickly?brbrThis book goes beyond the documentation to teach you how to do that. It will show you how to get the most out of JBoss RichFaces by explaining the key components and how you can use them to enhance your applications. Most importantly, you will learn how to integrate AJAX into your applications without using JavaScript but only standard JSF components. You will learn how to create and customize your own components and add them to your new or existing applications.brbrFirst, the book introduces you to JBoss RichFaces and its components. It uses many examples of AJAX components which, among others, include: Calendar, Data Table, ToolTip, ToolBar, Menu, RichEditor, Drag'n'Drop. All these components will help you create the web site you always imagined. Key aspects of the RichFaces framework such as the AJAX framework, skinnability, and CDK (Component Development Kit) will help you customize the look of your web application. As you progress through the book, you will see a sample application that shows you how to build an advanced contact manager. You're also going to be amazed to know about the advanced topics you will learn like developing new components, new skins, optimizing a web application, inserting components dynamically using Java instead of XHTML, and using JavaScript to manage components. This book is more than a reference with component example code: it's a manual that will guide you, step-by-step, through the development of a real AJAX JSF web application.

Customer Reviews: Spend your money on something better.. March 5, 2010 S. Pettit (Atlanta, GA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful While this book does give some basic Richfaces component uses, it offers far less knowledge than is shown on the Richfaces live demo site. The author goes into detail on the usage of some of the basic components, but does not go into depth on many of the technicalities of the components. I would not recommend this book if you are looking for a higher level of component understanding than is offered in most JBoss tutorials. Only a small fraction of the Richfaces components are used extensively, and most are used in such a generic way that you will never see the author encounter most of the known flaws of the components, which is what I was hoping to gain a better understanding of. br / br /If you are looking for some simple JBoss tutorials, then this may be your book. If you are looking for more advanced concepts, then this is not your book.
