Web Sockets Now Available In Google Chrome
December 11, 2009

The Web Sockets API enables web applications to handle bidirectional communications with server-side process in a straightforward way. Developers have been using XMLHttpRequest (“XHR”) for such purposes, but XHR makes developing web applications that communicate back and forth to the server unnecessarily complex. XHR is basically asynchronous HTTP, and because you need to use a tricky technique like long-hanging GET for sending data from the server to the browser, simple tasks rapidly become complex. As opposed to XMLHttpRequest, Web Sockets provide a real bidirectional communication channel in your browser. Once you get a Web Socket connection, you can send data from browser to server by calling a send() method, and receive data from server to browser by an onmessage event handler. A simple example is included below.

JSON allows us to overcome the cross-domain issue because we can use a method called JSONP that uses a callback function to send the JSON data back to our domain. It’s this capability that makes JSON so incredibly useful, as it opens up a lot of doors that were previously difficult to work around.

dhtmlxScheduler is a Web-based JavaScript events calendar that provides rich and intuitive scheduling solution similar to Microsoft Outlook Calendar, Apple’s iCal or Google Calendar.

Advanced drag-n-drop functionality allows users to change events dates and time by easily moving or resizing event boxes. The events can be displayed in Day, Week or Month views.

JavaDB: An idea whose time has finally come?
Once I realized what JavaDB was capable of, my mind start to whir a bit on the possibilities. For example, let’s say all PCs, public kiosks, and seat-back Internet terminals on the planes we fly include at bare minimum a browser, Java, support for Java Specification Request 80 (more on that in a second) and a USB port. Now imagine that everything you normally keep on your PC (documents, contacts, etc.) is stored on a USB key that’s compliant with both JavaDB and JSR 80: the Java USB API that, according to official description, “allows Java applications to discover, read, write, and manage USB devices.”
