Look at the xajax extension.
Otherwise, a brand new json one is coming soon there

Hiya

I think there is some difference between the xajax & json extensions. The xajax extension packages the xajax project ( http://www.xajaxproject.org/ ) and provides access to an ajax library. It doesn't actually do anything itself. It's a great starting point for adding ajax functionality to a site.

From what I've read, Xaviers JSON extension will provide access to eZpublish objects (nodes, objects etc) via ajax (presented in JSON format). This sounds a little more specific to me.

So xajax would be a great base for building any ajax functionality, JSON sounds like it will be excellent it you need to deal with eZ Objects via ajax. (While I haven't yet seen the JSON code it could be built using the xajax library)

@Xavier - I think you need 2-3 more *s in the JSON project description ;)

Cheers
Bruce

Hi,

Generating a bit of html is easy on ez:

Create a view that you want (eg ajax)

create a layout that is empty (I think fullscreen is standard)

/set/layout/fullscreen/content/view/ajax/<nodeid>

I use jquery on the client side, about one line to call that page and update the page to add the new content.

Otherwise, yes, might need to update the description of the project ;)
