[GNHLUG] NHRuby.org Meeting TUESDAY, Feb. 20, 2007: RJS Templates.

[Scott Garman]

It's that time again - time for the second meeting of the NH Ruby/Rails
User Group!

WHEN: Tuesday, February 20, 2007 from 7-9 PM.
WHERE: Portsmouth Public Library, MacLeod Board Room. Portsmouth, NH.

For a map and driving directions, see:

WHAT: RJS Templates - an exciting feature of Ruby on Rails that allows
you to make changes to your web pages and make AJAX calls while still
writing Ruby code. It's literally a Ruby-to-Javascript API, with hooks
for Prototype actions and Script.aculo.us visual effects.

You might use RJS Templates to do things such as:

* Insert or replace data on your web page.
* Dynamically show or hide objects on your web page with impressive
visual effects.
* Standardize your web application's interactive behavior across
multiple pages.

...all without requiring page reloads.

We'll be watching a PeepCode screencast on RJS templates, with a Q&A
session afterward.

There will be FREE STUFF to giveaway during this meeting! No one will
walk away empty-handed.

After the meeting, a few of us are likely to hit a local bar in
Portsmouth. Anyone is welcome to join us!
