Although I don't normally do this, per a reader request, I've made the book's examples available to be seen and used here. The book has three primary examples, each in an Ajax and non-Ajax form. The pages are:

dept_form.html

This page returns all of the employees in a selected department.

add_employee.html

This page uses Ajax to add an employee to the database (note: the version running on this site does not actually execute the INSERT query that updates the database.)

search_form.html

This page provides a simple search to retrieve employees by last name.

There's no navigation within or among the pages. You'll need to click Back to return to this page to see another example. To run one of the examples without Ajax (to see what that'd be like for visitors that can't use the Ajax version), disable JavaScript in your Web browser.
