New Demo Page

Cody Lindley contacted me today to let me know about his views on jQuery – and a new jQuery demo page. If you’re looking for more examples of what jQuery code looks like, and some of the neat effects that it can do, you should definitely check it out. I’ve added a link to his […]

Mini Tutorial

I’ve been digging through my referrer logs and Technorati to see who’s talking about jQuery. Today I ran across someone who wrote a quick tutorial on how to use jQuery. The tutorial, itself, is rather new (e.g. nothing immediately borrowed from the docs) – so if you’re looking for some more sample code, in addition […]

Easy Input CSS Rules

I ran across a post on the DOM Scripting blog, the other day, and saw a great opportunity to demo the brevity of jQuery, observe:

First jQuery Plugin

Michael Geary contacted me today to let me know that he’s finished the first third-party jQuery plugin. His particular plugin loads in a remote JSON file, which can then be manipulated further.

Announcing the jQuery Blog

I’d like to take this opportunity to announce the jQuery blog. With jQuery having been announced just over a week ago, the response has been enormous. Making it to both del.icio.us popular and the front page of digg just shows how badly Javascript programmers want a better library for writing code with. I’m going to […]

RSS to JSON Convertor

This script is capable of taking an RSS (or Atom) feed and converting it into a valid JSON object. I currently cache feed requests once per hour, to save on bandwidth – so keep that in mind when developing an application. You can use the interface that I have setup, below, or you can download […]
