Karl, I'm with John Farrar: ColdFusion guys is, maybe, the most active group from this list. ;-) I'll wait Rey Bango CF+jQuery(maybe talking about ajaxCFC???).
Thanks Karl for your time with jQuery. Cheers 2007/7/23, Karl Swedberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Not put off that you do PHP, but you are not going to hit a market segment like you want if you don't spread out just a bit.) For that, you'll have to buy Rey Bango's upcoming book: *jQuery and ColdFusion, a Marriage Made in Heaven*. :-p Hi John, I realized after I sent this that it might have come across too flippant. Sorry about that. The serious answer is that given the constraints we had to work with, we weren't able to venture into other server-side languages. Also, we had to strike a balance between giving enough server-side code to have the (ajax) examples be useful and not giving so much as to distract from the main focus of the book. We chose PHP for two reasons, (1) it's a very popular server-side language and (2) it's the sever-side language we ourselves are most familiar with. We also wrote 2 1/2 times more than we had originally contracted for, so, if anything, we were trying to keep word count down. That said, if the publisher ever wants us to write a second edition, this might be the sort of thing we could add. Maybe an additional ajax chapter showing how to achieve one task with jQuery + PHP, jQuery + ColdFusion, jQuery + Python, etc. Other books have done that sort of thing in later editions, so it's not out of the question, I suppose. Again, I'm really happy to hear that you like the book. Cheers, Karl
