In this video we continue exploring new features added to ASP.NET Ajax 4.0 with a thorough discussion of Templates, both “one way templates” and “live templates”. Using the JavaScript library Sys.UI.Template namespace we show how to create template fields using JavaScript merge expressions with a double curly brace notation. This provides an easy way to bind JavaScript objects (like JSON objects) to UI elements. Similarly, “live templates” allow you to bind to HTML form elements using a single curly brace notation. In an extended demonstration, we call again on Sys.Observer to provide a way to add and remove items in a list via a simple HTML form.
