Atlas Tutorial: Creating an Ajax scribble application []

Use Ajax technology to write on the web!

 

Introduction

ASP. net Atlas is a rich set of client side and server side libraries to develop Ajax-style applications using ASP. net. this tutorial (and probably more in this series) attempts to provide a general view of the features available in Atlas. since, Atlas is a very vast library this very first tutorial concentrates on two most important features of Atlas:

1. Ability to call server side web services from client side scripts
2. Lack of developing cross-browser compatible JavaScript code

Background

MFC scribble application was one of the first application that I used to learn MFC. therefore, I decided to base this tutorial on scribble. scribble application allows users to draw freehand sketches using the mouse. I first saw a similar application on the web, utilizing Ajax technologies, at the Javascript draw website. the javascript draw website works only on Mozilla Firefox. this article describes how to build a cross-browser version of the application. we will build onApplication in each article in this series to demonstrates more features of Atlas.
