A quick referral to Panama Jack’s blog where he discusses implementing a new AATraders template for 0.30 of the popular PHP space strategy and trading game. The new template uses AJAX, well with HTML rather than XML, to offer some options to resize each section of the interface as a user pleases, while remembering these choices with small CSS snippets stored server side.

It’s stuff like this that gives AJAX a good name – it improves upon what already exists, in a manner separate from the previous templates so it’s entirely optional. I know my own Astrum Futura is AJAX heavy, but PJ proves you don’t need a massive amount of work to leverage some AJAX tweaks for useability.
