Who this book is for

This book is intended for application developers who are building web applications using the Oracle Application Express development environment.

In combination with Ext JS, a cross-browser JavaScript library for building rich internet applications, you will learn how to create an innovative, visually appealing web user interface with most of the characteristics of the desktop applications.

The majority of Oracle Application Express developers come from a database development background, so they already have the necessary database skills, but are less familiar with web development HTML, CSS, and JavaScript syntax.

You may already be an experienced Application Express developer, looking to take your applications to the next level, to go beyond the "out of the box" functionality.

If so, this book is for you.
