Dojo Toolkit v0.4 Graphics and Charting APIs Built on SVG


Posted by Antoine Quint apropos SVG on the Web on Wed Oct 25th, 2006 at 09:15:06 BST

The popular Dojo JavaScript toolkit recently was upgraded to version 0.4. Among new features, such as new accessibility packages and new and improved widgets, this Dojo release introduces the new dojo.gfx APIs which allow for rich graphics creation using a rendering back-end provided by either SVG, in browsers with native support of SVG (Firefox, Opera, etc.), or VML, in Internet Explorer which does not yet support SVG natively. Another new feature of Dojo is its charting engine, which also makes use of SVG for rendering. Demos are available for the graphics and charting engines. Dojo 0.4 is can be downloaded for free as an open-source library licensed under the GPL, and the source code for the dojo.gfx APIs can be browsed on their subversion web interface.

Dylan Schiemann wrote a fairly comprehensive article on the dojo.gfx APIs, which is well worth reading.

I'm concerned about fixes more than new features.

Why is IE always so behind or our of date, or just doesn't seem to work with much.Stick to opera and firefox :) Thank you, Drew

Dojo Toolkit v0.4 is a nice tool. We used it ones when we had another outsourcing software development project. Frankly, there are many software releases here at svg.org describing tools we used in our work.
