I have blogged a lot about the new AJAX related functionality that comes with CF8, and some of my examples have demonstrated how to utilize the underlying EXT and YUI JavaScript libraries that power these great features. There are 5 functions that ColdFusion provides that give you access to the JavaScript objects, and if you are proficient at JavaScript, I highly recommend you spend some time researching each of the libraries so you can be familiar with how you can customize them to your needs.
If your not familiar with JavaScript, get familiar. More and more attention is being focused on making websites more engaging for users, and knowing how to use javascript to implement AJAX related features is a powerful tool to have at your disposal.
