    Google's not helping me today.

    Anyone got any good Ajax resources, particularly with handling forms?

    Thanks

    in .NET you can use the AJAX toolkit which is dead handy.

    Or for an autocomplete sample (AJAX in a form) try here

    what do you mean by an AJAX "resource" ???

    Are you "rolling your own", so to speak? Or looking for options?

    There's a lot of frameworks already out there - its mostly a case of what you want to use.

    Some of the (Java) guys in the office have been playing with Google Web Toolkit. Its apparently not bad.

    I use prototype. Allows me to do AJAX calls with a minimum of script and do it unobtrusively unlike the frankly horrible toolkit Microsoft have released. This from a .net developer.

    http://mootools.net/ .. think Prototype only a whole lot smaller. Have made the switch on about 11 or 12 projects now, and haven't noticed anything lacking in Moo so far.

    Anthem for .net is amazing.

    Basically you have all the .net controls that can be used exactly the same way but you dont need to do postbacks to make server calls.

    Prototype is also handy too
