Customer comments on this selection.
 Succint intro, but not much more
I bought this book thinking I would learn a lot. I've done very little JavaScript and Ajax before so I was expecting to soak this up like a sponge. I did the examples and read through the book and felt like I got a great introduction to using Ajax with Rails. That's the problem though, I feel like the book needs more meat, especially in the RJS section. Now that I have a good foundation, I'm looking elsewhere for more intermediate concepts that should've been part of this text.
 Ajax on Rails
It's a good book, the structure and ideas are clear and comprehensive maybe I miss to download the examples' code from internet but I quite a few happy with this purchase, I got my money's worth.
Not bad at all
I've bought this book with expectation. The title implied the feeling that this book would be THE book I'd ever need for AJAX on Rails. However it gave less than I've expected. There's a large portion of reference material you can easily find in the rails documentation. It was an easy read, I've completed in one day. In the end, I found Peepcode videos to be more informative than this book.
 very concise and useful
The chapters are short and cover what is needed to start programming in any of the subjects they cover such as: prototype, rjs. Examples are also well chosen.
This book assumes good level of familiarity with javascript and ruby on rails.
Need more examples, half of the book is filled with Documentation
Why do I have to buy a book for documentation? I can look it up online for free. People learn by examples. These book needs more examples than just reproducting the dry documentation.
