ibCom is happy to announce support for the JSON ["jason"] data communication standard in the upcoming onDemand 2.0 service.
JSON is considered by many as the default standard for exchanging information within and between web applications and supporting services - it is seen as lightweight version of XML.
Within the webbrowser environment tools like Javascript, jQuery and jQuery plugins, all support JSON. By adding JSON support to the ibCom mydigitalspace onDemand service, we are making it even easier for web application developers/assemblers to build rich internet applications (RIAs) with great user experiences.
JSON can also be used in non webbrowser environments.
We will of course continue to support the text/html and xml options – so as the application developer/assembler you have a choice.
