jQuery is a new type of Javascript library. It is not a huge, bloated framework promising the best in AJAX - nor is it just a set of needlessly complex enhancements - jQuery is designed to change the way that you write Javascript.

moo.fx is a superlightweight, ultratiny, megasmall javascript effects library, written with prototype.js. It's easy to use, fast, cross-browser, standards compliant, provides controls to modify Height, Width, and Opacity with builtin checks that won't let a user break the effect with multiple crazy clicks. It's also optimized to make you write the lesser code possible. moo.fx has been successfully tested with: Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer. It should work in most of the gecko browsers too. Only Height and Width will work in Opera, since that browser does not support opacity.

JavaScript’s increasing popularity throughout the web makes it more important than ever to make sure our client side code is implemented with a nice mix of stability, speed, and reusability. One of the best ways for accomplishing this is to use a simple library and syntax to use as a foundation for every project. Thankfully, Sam Stephenson created an amazing library of functions that we can rely on called Prototype.js to ease our JavaScript development practices.

So, I’ve created a basic effect, to smoothly scroll from an object’s position to another.

To get all a elements in the document with a “info-links” class. getElementsByClassName(document, "a", "info-links"); To get all div elements within the element named “container”, with a “col” class. getElementsByClassName(document.getElementById("container"), "div", "col"); To get all elements within in the document with a “click-me” class. getElementsByClassName(document, "*", "click-me");

That's why I came up with Behaviour - my solution to unobtrusive javascript behaviours. Behaviour lets you use CSS selectors to specify elements to add javascript events to. This means that instead of writing:

If you have a form where you want to allow a user to upload more than one file, you’re stuck with either adding as many file input elements as the number of files you want to upload, or possibly having new ones appear ‘magically’ through Javascript.

Quelques functions javascript pour manipuler les attributs class des objets DOM

AJAX (asynchronous javascript and xml) has been getting a lot of press lately. It is seen as a way to add desktop-application functionality to html pages. Things like Drag and drop, Fluid animations and Dynamic page updates. It's great to see public uptake of these technologies - but it worries me to see the influx of <SCRIPT> tags and onclick attributes into webpages.

Well written code will help to minimise the performance impact of User JavaScripts.

Content, structure and presentation are now precisely defined, but I believe that the behaviour layer is too tight for javascript, javascript is not only about events, and separation is not good for the evolution of javascript. Modern javascript is in fact breaking the layer-model we thought was correct. I believe it’s perfectly logical to have presentational javascript which can go throughout structure and presentation.

A web developper blog. Fresh design.

Inspired by Andy, I decided to have a crack at something I've been thinking about trying for a long time. document.getElementsBySelector is a javascript function which takes a standard CSS style selector and returns an array of elements objects from the document that match that selector.

hurrah ! all js dom classes, methods etc
