Enter the Dojo

I was struggling with a project at work last week involving Dojo, and elements of AJAX, JSON.

One downside, the Dojo documentation is all over the place, a lot of it is incomplete and when you google search you often see out of date pages or broken links come up first.

My project was cool in a way and I can go into what it involved. But first to give credit where credit is due, I found this really helpful tutorial to add checkbox inputs to a Dojo/Dijit tree (yes it is much harder than one would think)

Examples were easy to follow and worked (note that the first steps in the tutorial don't actually work in Dojo 1.4, but he helpfully points that out the workarounds near the end).
