DojoConf 2011 is under way, and we continue our Dojo enlightenment with a trifecta of tutorials!
In this tutorial, we will show you the basics of creating and using simple form elements using Dijit—including how to set up a Dijit theme for your web application.
In this tutorial, we will explore the widgets in the dijit.form namespace which enhance the user experience of HTML select elements: Select, FilteringSelect, and ComboBox.
In this tutorial, we will further explore Dijit’s select widgets—particularly how to create instances programmatically, populating their drop-down lists from dojo.data stores.
