In Part 1 I had a look at the new files (templates, source, etc.) shipping with Clarion 9.1; now it's time to see what's changed in the existing files.

The ClarionSharp blog entry on H5 contains this mention of JSON:

H5 apps use the jQuery library, either jQuery UI or jQuery Mobile (UI), and JSON for updating client side data without a full page refresh.  They run under the AppBroker SE, so you just install the service and deploy — no IIS knowledge required.

JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation, and is a simple data format with a wide variety of uses. You can find out more at http://www.json.org/
