Yes, jQuery, Yahoo's YUI and Mootools are all nice libraries. However, since Tapestry and Struts 2 bake in Dojo by default, it makes it a little difficult to not include it. Maybe we should just make it easier to include a different Ajax framework than Scriptaculous? Right now, we only use it for highlighting and setting form focus - maybe we should move those into global.js (which I've thought of renaming, suggestions welcome) and make them independent of any framework. Or we could continue our abstractions on top extractions and use Ext JS or jMaki - I believe both libraries allow you to use other libraries underneath.
The good news is we don't plan on Ajaxifying pages by default until AppFuse 2.2, so we have some time to make these decisions. For those of you who have experience with any of these libraries, now is the time to speak up. Personally, I still like Scriptaculous and Prototype, but I haven't worked as much with the others.

Have you considered using jQuery? It seems to be a little more lightweight than prototype and scriptaculous and definitely supports progressive enhancement. I'm currently in the process of replacing prototype etc in my AppFuse projects just because I love the tablesorter plug-in. There's a jQuery plug-in called Interface that so far replaces all of what scripatulous does in a 1.9.4 app. Brett Knights --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
