Integrating dojo toolkit with drupal?
davosian - August 19, 2006 - 21:35
I am wondering whether someone has expercience with using the dojo Ajax library (http://dojotoolkit.org) in drupal.
Is this possible at all, are there any known problems? I would like to use dojo because of the strong industry support, but it only makes sense if the library fits into drupal.
Is there an alternative library that works better with drupal? I am aware of the Javascript Tools, but this is only a small component selection and does not provide an easy to handle interface for XMLHTTPRequests.
Thanks for your input,
Dennis

Hallo,
Have you ever tried your suggestion? The integration should be possible because dojo (version 4) is using namespaces so that there should be no collisions with the drupal internal javascript code.
If you have some experience please share it.
Thx, Willi
There is this...
http://dojotoolkit.org/node/744
If I remember, it completely overrides jQuery for the standard Drupal functions... and makes Dojo available to the rest of the Drupal site... it wont however negate the need for jQuery if a module you install requires it.
This was written by one of the contributors to the Dojo project.
