Django makes it easy to serialize objects for responses to XMLHttpRequest, because that's an important server-side thing. Even if you don't use the serializers, Django makes it ridiculously easy to construct responses in different formats depending on whether you're responding to an "AJAX request" or a "normal" request. Personal opinion follows: Django has never included and, hopefully, will never include "AJAX helpers" of any sort. It is my firm belief that there are lots and lots of really good standalone JavaScript toolkits out there which will serve you far better in the long run than having your server-side framework try to do magic tricks and write your code for you. It is also my firm belief that if you choose a framework based on what magic JavaScript tricks it can do, you should expect to get your clock cleaned by competitors who can roll their own magic on the fly -- they'll be able to do it faster and better every time. -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
