Creating a Mashup Dojo Widget

"Dojo is a powerful user interface toolkit that lets developers build interactive web applications. In a previous article, I explained the steps you can take to create a custom Dojo component. While that article covered how to create the component structure, template, class, style, and how to test the component, the example I created was pretty simple. In this article, I will show how to create a more meaningful component that interacts with third-party APIs.

"As you may remember from the previous article, the component template defines the HTML representation of the component, while the component class represents the component data and behavior. The elements of the component template can be referenced and used in the component class using the Dojo attach points."
