jQuery Hide/Show Button
Feb 20th
This is just a small example of how you can use jQuery to make an effective show/hide button(s) on a page with a few lines of code. It will support multiple instances per page and use it with HTML markup, you don’t need to edit the Javascript every time you want to use it. It’s generic and re-usable code.
I have provided a download for the example at the bottom of the page; although all of the needed code is explained and shown further down in the article.
jQuery ‘AjaxLinks’ Plugin
Feb 18th
I previously wrote an article showing how you can turn a normal ‘A’ link into an ajax request and place the returned content into divs. This does the same job but used as a jQuery plugin with more customizable options and flexible use.
The download is at the bottom of the article and the script in the zip file is minified to 1.22kb; the code below shows the full script.
Google Gears: LocalDB Example
Dec 24th
I have recently been playing around with google gears; Gears is an open source project that enables more powerful web applications, by adding new features to your web browser such as interacting with the desktop, storing local data and running Javascript in the background. Here is a simple link manager I created to test out the LocalDB usage.
In this example I have made a link manager, where you can add/delete links from categories – as well as add/edit/delete existing categories. I have been using JQuery to automate some things, so if you use any of this code at all make sure JQuery is loaded beforehand.

Easy JQuery AJAX Links
Dec 5th
This is something pretty basic, but I thought it would come in handy for people that might want to use JQuery AJAX but doesn’t want to write a lot of code to do it. The following code will allow you to transform any normal HTML ‘a’ link into an AJAX request just by adding an extra parameter to the HTML tag.
