API Changes

Introducing BorderContainer

Try out the new dijit.layout.BorderContainer widget, now available in trunk. This widget combines the functionality of the LayoutContainer and SplitContainer widgets, and does so with a smaller and simpler implementation.

New attribute mapping feature for Dijit (ticket #3058)

In revision [10527] the attributemap branch has merged into trunk. Now all widgets have a property called attributeMap that is responsible for listing attributes which Dijit should copy over from its source when creating a new widget.

Caveats of upgrading to 0.9

The 0.9 release has a number of improvements over 0.4:

New Dojo Offline Release

I've pushed out a small, new version of Dojo Offline. Release notes:

* An optional new feature has been added to speed up the sync process. Currently, we always refresh the list of offline files during syncing; this can be quite slow if you have alot of files, however, and I have added a way to version your offline files. This means that we only refresh offline files when the version changes, which can speed up syncing considerably. More details here.

New Dojo Offline Release

Dojo is proud to announce a new beta release of Dojo Offline. This release has a huge amount of exciting new functionality, including a full port to Google Gears, a port from Dojo 0.4 to 0.9, and more. Read more below.

Documentation update

Thanks to Jeff for his comment on the documentation. I am really embarrassed for my broken grammar, misused syntax. So I revise this documentation and integrate the experience on implementation of the cube.

You may download the PDF, DVI and LaTEX source from my website.

Before we code, we document

Before rolling-up sleeves to make my hands dirty, I would like to document each step we take: the design philosophy, implementation challenge, refactory to keep the community updated what I am doing in this summer.

Dojo Offline Beta Released: Toolkit for Offline Web Apps

We are proud to announce the beta release of the Dojo Offline Toolkit. Dojo Offline is a free, open source toolkit that makes it easy for web applications to work offline. It consists of two pieces: a JavaScript library bundled with your web page and a small (~300K) cross-platform, cross-browser download that helps to cache your web application's user-interface for use offline. This is an early-access program, so there are a few bugs, but we have made tremendous progress - it's time to get the beta out the door.

dojo.query: A CSS Query Engine For Dojo

The time has finally come for Dojo to adopt a CSS query engine. That doesn't mean our standards are lowering any, though. Introducing dojo.query: high-performance plumbing for real-world applications.

Dropping IE 5.5 support

At today's 3D2, we unanimously agreed that it is time to drop official support for IE 5.5. The cost of extra code and testing required to support IE 5.5, a browser no longer supported by Microsoft nor distributed as any part of currently shipping versions of Windows, is no longer considered to be a worthwhile investment of our limited resources. We'll be putting together an official IE 5.5 deprecation plan, and put it to a vote this week.
