Try this practical, working example to see how you can combine AJAX with XML Web services to create truly powerful applications using JavaScript.
In a previous TechTip, I introduced you to the JavaScript objects used to access XML Web services via Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX). This time, I'll expand on what I covered last time and show you a working sample of a Web page.
With JavaScript, you don't have to reinvent the wheel. Someone has always been there before you.
Sometimes you discover things that make you say, "Well, that's clever!"
If you have ever monitored a help desk, you know that Mr. Clumsy may have accidentally turned Caps Lock on when signing into Windows. If this happens, a message pops up stating that Caps Lock is on and that it might prevent the user from signing in correctly. I think this message is very clever, and I am sure it has saved a lot of calls to help desks.
