How much coverage is there in the book in regards to the XML portion of AJAX? I could use more help with XML than the JS side. Thanks.

Hi Shawn,

Chapter 7 deals with it in great deal using a component of the Java Web Parts project called JSDigester. If you are familiar with Commons Digester, it's a client-side implementation of it (a limited implementation). I've always stayed away from XML on the client because it's, shall we say, not terribly pleasent to work with in my experience, but JSDigester makes it extremely simple. I personally go with JSON over XML any time I have a choice.
