Hey guys, my company wants me to learn how to create dynamic web content. Currently, I'm thinking about AJAX or Flash but I'm a bit new to either technology (and to be honest, websites in general).
The application is a bit like a stock ticker where new information comes from the server (possibly as XML or JSON) and the web page has to display the new information graphically. The information isn't updating very fast but ideally, we wouldn't have refreshes to get new data. The web page also has to be able to transmit commands back to the server.
Flash seems like an obvious choice but AJAX is supported on an iPhone right? That's a bit important.
Oh, also, I'm going to need to find training or mentorship. Maybe a class in San Diego or something.
Ideas? Questions? Thoughts?
