No doubt that Web2.0 is one of the best things that happened in our lifetime (besides the internet itself). When we mention Web2.0 first things that come into our minds are AJAX, rounded corners, clean and light layouts and of course RSS feeds. Nowadays, you either provide an RSS feed or consume it in your web app using AJAX/JavaScript. The only bad thing is that you can not request cross-site

Most of the time custom jQuery plugins and extensions that we create do not use a callback functions. They usually simply work on DOM elements or do some calculations. But there are cases when we need to define our own custom callback functions for our plugins. And this is especially true when our plugins utilize AJAX querying. Let’s say our custom jQuery extension gets data by making some

In this post, I would like to share a little jQuery code snippet that makes getting URL parameters and their values more convenient. Recently, while working on one of my projects, I needed to read and get parameter values from URL string of the current page that was constructed and sent by PHP script. I came across this short and sweet JavaScript code snippet by Roshambo that does just that. //

One of the reasons that make a software popular is its extensions and plugins. jQuery has plenty of plugins that do almost anything you want, from simple button hide to full blown galleries. Plugins let non developers easily add functionality they need to their websites and there are times when one might include more than one javascript library such as prototype.js, YUI or mootools with jQuery.

I came across a forum post where user was experiencing problems while using Digg this (diggthis.js) button code with jQuery’s .wrap() method. According to him Mozilla Firefox (FF) is freezing and Apple Safari is crushing when he tries to wrap the div that contains diggthis.js file with another new div like so:

Form submission is one of the most used actions and double form submission is one of most occurred problems in web development. Rather than dealing with this problem server side, eating up your CPU process time, it is much easier and better to deal with this problem client side using JavaScript. When we talk javascript, what it a better way to write it other than using jQuery?! So this Friday’s

I was asked to create a user interface locker using jQuery. The main idea behind was to lock all user interactions with the website while jQuery AJAX loads block contents and unlock when content is loaded. So I thought I would share the code and released it as a jQuery plugin called uiLock. The plugin extends jQuery and adds two main functions called $.uiLock(); and $.uiUnlock(); Here is how to

This post IS NOT about jQuery’s JSONP support. This post is about how to make AJAX queries to domains other then yours. Basically how to achieve cross domain scripting with jQuery. The technique will help you resolve the access to restricted uri denied" code: "1012 problem. UPDATE: If you want to get cross-domain RSS feeds, there is a better way to do that with universal RSS to JSON converter.

A colleague of mine who is not very javascript or for that matter jQuery aware asked me to help him to do a little trick with jQuery. He needed to select the contents of the input box when user selects it (when onfocus event is fired basically). Selecting a text in your inputbox on focus is easy and actually 3 lines of jQuery code, but it add a nice usability touch to your site. This “select all

Smarty is the first template engine I have learned and used in my projects. Smarty makes your PHP code cleaner and promotes the V in MVC. Here is an example of Smarty template: User User Information: Name: {$name} Smarty will replace the {$name} with the variable that you set in your PHP code. Anyway, do you see the
