Learn how to write acceptance tests and test "user stories" with your applications using the new doh.robot module, dijit.robotx, for Dojo 1.2, without modifying your application code or even upgrading your version of Dojo.

Hola dojoers,

Recently, GFX 2.0 got new important feature! It is called LoaderSystem. As name describes, it will load external data format (especially graphic markup language such as OBJ file)... Anyone familiar with Suzanne from Blender? It is auto loaded in the GFX 2.0 in the start up page... You can rotate it, you can move it as well... Not forget to mention other mesh such as Cylinder is added as well...

Today SitePen, Inc. announced the release of a co-sponsored "demo" utilizing Adobe's AIR runtime and The Dojo Toolkit affectionately named "The Dojo Toolbox". Don't let the term "demo" fool you though, this thing is a fully functioning application providing a pluggable API built around the question "what can be done offline to better Dojo?" ...

I had the chance to talk about Dojo at JavaOne last week, and one of the attendees, Kenn Thisted, was nice enough to create OpenSearch plugins for dojotoolkit.org and api.dojotoolkit.org:

If you are using Firefox 2 or 3, or Internet Explorer 7, you can easily add Dojo search to your browser's search bar.

We are proud to announce the beta release of the Dojo Offline Toolkit. Dojo Offline is a free, open source toolkit that makes it easy for web applications to work offline. It consists of two pieces: a JavaScript library bundled with your web page and a small (~300K) cross-platform, cross-browser download that helps to cache your web application's user-interface for use offline. This is an early-access program, so there are a few bugs, but we have made tremendous progress - it's time to get the beta out the door.

The JS Linker was just committed to the Dojo repository.

We've been having a lot of fun at the Ajax Experience. Alex talked for 3 hours today... Brad and I will be talking for 90 minutes each on Friday. We've talked and talked and talked some more, as well as spending time testing the 0.3 release candidates. After tonight's panel, we chatted with the Microsoft people atending the conference, and found out that there are some nice, significantly improved, free developer and debugging tools for IE. Nikhil's blog entry tells more about the day.

We can add JSEclipse to the list of authoring tools that support Dojo. The JSEclipse integration appears to be particularly complete, as it includes auto-completion for Dojo APIs. Congrats to InterAKT! Great tool support like this brings Dojo one step closer to truly being a ubiquitous "standard library" for JavaScript. Just wait 'till you see what we have up our sleeves for documentation.

I thought I'd share a bookmarklet I just threw together which has come in quite handy: ReCSS. It reloads all the stylesheets pulled in via links by adding a query string argument to the end of the URL. Quite handy for applying CSS tweaks to dynamic apps. Update Now with Safari support.

While many of you are using Dojo to create high-powered, dynamic applications, I often find myself "sprinkling" Dojo here and there to improve the user experience on "normal" web pages. It is with that in mind that I present to you dojo.io.FormBind. FormBind allows you to quickly setup your "Web 1.0" form for asynchronous submission. How do you do it? Easy:

function magicForm() {
  var x = dojo.io.FormBind({
    // reference your form
    formNode: document.forms[1],
