2. New TLCC Course for Notes and Domino 9 - XPages Development 1 for Notes and Domino 9

XPages Development 1 for Notes and Domino 9 takes a deep dive into XPages, the most exciting new feature in Domino since LotusScript! You will learn how to create an XPages application using Domino Designer 9. All the basic building blocks of XPages, from controls to events to the JavaScript editor are covered in this course that you do right in your Notes client and Domino Designer. You will learn:

  • The Design environment for XPages in Designer 9
  • The Programming options available to an XPages application
  • How to use Domino views and documents as data sources
  • Create, display, edit, and delete Domino documents
  • Use container controls like the Repeat and Data Table to display information
  • Set up validation
  • Use CSS to style and format your XPages
  • How Themes can be used to apply a common style to all your XPages
  • Server-side and Client-side JavaScript
  • Use Custom Controls to share common parts of your design on multiple XPages
  • Combine a view and a document on one page with complete edit capabilities
  • Combine multiple documents or multiple views on a page
  • Create dynamic tables with repeat controls
  • Join data from different views and databases into one view
  • Filter views to show only certain categories or the results of a full-text search
  • Use the built-in AJAX functionality to enable type ahead and partial page refresh
  • Display a responses-only column so it appears just like the Notes client
  • Enable Authors and Readers fields
This distance learning course, like all TLCC courses, includes many demonstrations and activities you will do "live" in Domino Designer. No simulations or videos are used. You will get hands-on experience building XPages while learning at your own pace in your own home and/or office. A Domino server is not required and the course will install on your local system. Need help? An expert TLCC instructor is a click away via an integrated course discussion database.

Watch for more Notes and Domino 9 courses in the next few days and weeks!
