jQuery and WCF Data Services (OData) - Perfect Together - David Hoerster
You've created web sites and spruced them up with jQuery to improve your user experience. You've played around with WCF Data Services to create lists of data from your server. But what happens when you bring the two of them together. It's like peanut butter and jelly; peas and carrots; well, you get the idea. This talk will describe how to connect your jQuery-based web application with your OData data service. If time permits, we'll also look at binding your OData feed to interesting jQuery plug-ins like jqGrid.

Address: 2300 Wilson Blvd City: Arlington State: VA Zip Code: 222015424 Description: Abstract:
the name alone instills loathing and dread into the hearts of developers. The language, which is neither Java nor script, used to be safely confined to the browser, as a tool of last resort. Then something happened: like a horror film, JavaScript started appear everywhere -- even on the server! Despite numerous attempts to crush the language, it has grown and thrived. Love or hate it, JavaScript is a fact of life for developers in the 2010s. This presentation is about one die-hard Silverlight/C# developer's savage journey into the heart of JavaScript and how he came to realize: it's not that bad after all.
