So I though it was time to post another Dojo widget tutorial. This time I have written a widget for displaying a tag cloud. Even though you could use it for any kind of links, the most common use is obviously tags from your blog or other website. The TagCloud widget is using dojo.data and [...]

Dojo Toolkit 1.1 was released today with huge improvements. I’ve been testing the beta of 1.1 for some time now and it’s really great.
You can read more details in the Change Log, Release Notes and Porting Guides.

Hi. Troy here. Viktor has been nagging me to write something about the LotusScript JSON classes that I created, so here goes. You can read some background information about the classes here.
First a little history. I originally wrote the JSONReader to support a particular piece of functionality we were putting [...]

Troy Reimer at SNAPPS has created LotusScript classes for parsing and creating JSON text. These classes are contained within five script libraries. There is a JSONReader and a JSONWriter class together with some wrapper classes including JSONArray and JSONObject. The JSONWriter class is really cool.

There are many articles out there explaining what JSON is and where to use it, including a very good article written by Scott Good titled JSON and Domino.
What I’m going to try to explain in this tutorial is why associative arrays are our best friend when coding with JSON and Ajax. We have all seen [...]

Many of you have requested that I publish the sample database I used for the Faster Ajax with Domino and JSON speed test. I posted the article back in March and I should have done this a long time ago.
All documents/notes has been deleted from the Domino database to save some space and bandwidth on [...]

As several bloggers have posted, there is a new way of getting data out of Domino views using JSON. This feature was planned for Domino 8 but “slipped” into the 7.0.2 release of Domino.
I wanted to know if it would be faster to parse the data with JSON out of a huge view, with over [...]
