vice-versa - Google Code - 0 views

  •  
    every browser has some good feature: it could be performances, it could be something "not standard yet", it could a feature ready for ECMAScript 5. vice-versa project aim is to bring good stuff from every browser into a single, cross-browser, lightweight, JavaScript file.

ColorPicker 0.6 - 0 views

  •  
    This colorPicker is a light weight all-rounder (only ~46k incl. all 16 files) that can display and let you choose the entire color palette (~16.78 mil. colors) in 6 different color modes (+3 extra modes in RGB). This highly customizable and easy to install app comes in 4 different sizes (from 151 x 87 pixels to 405 x 302 pixels) and therefore different feature levels so you can use it for every supposable cause from 'easy choice' to 'professional determination'. That's probably all you'll ever need to let your clients choose the right color.

Why REST ? | /var/log/mind - 0 views

  • ‘ls’ or ‘List Directory’
  • ‘cd’or ‘Change Directory’
  • ‘put’ or ‘Upload’
  • ...26 more annotations...
  • you soon realise that every file and directory is uniquely addressable by its fully qualified path (either absolute or relative) and you can refer to each file and directory by its path. You are also aware that a valid path will uniquely resolve to only one directory or file.
  • the server allows you to retrieve the list of subdirectories and files within your current directory. It always shows you the current state of that directory.
  • following elements
  • A shared understanding of where the files will be uploaded, how they will be uniquely named, their specific file extensions (optionally) and the specific format of the file eg.
  • daemon process on the central office computer (the FTP server) which regularly scans the directory, parses each file as it comes it, does the relevant processing on it, and generates the appropriate result files and places them in the appropriate directories using the shared understanding of the directory structure and the file naming convention to communicate back the results of the processing.
  • RPC allowed you to invoke remote procedures by supporting an ability to pass messages which included the message name and the values for all the parameters necessary to be supplied to the message. Unlike FTP which was meant to do data transfer across a network, RPC was geared to do things remotely.
  • FTP required understanding of very few basic verbs (ls, cd, get, put). Thus the training required to understand FTP semantics was far less than that for RPC. This was partially due to the fact that RPC had a programmatic interface.
  • Moreover each time, new procedures were added or parameters added, these required programmatic changes
  • HTTP protoco
  • Unlike FTP and email, this required the authors to understand a new language, but used a simple markup syntax to keep the learning curve to the minimum
  • get/view/download/save a document
  • Along with RPC, these were essentially different technical manifestations of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) principles.
  • Many services were usually expected to “do something” though quite often some services would simply return the requested data. Usually but not necessarily the services were identified by using ‘verbs’.
  • allow us to use the web to ‘do something’
  • Resource and media types as the basic units
  • Unique resource identifiers
  • Each resource has often one default manually readable representation
  • Each resource representation optionally includes contextually relevant hyperlinks to other resources
  • REST encourages a uniform interface
  • GET, PUT, POST and DELETE
  • Default Rendering
  • a default HTML rendering capability
  • Aspects such as non maintenance of conversational state, greatly increase the scalability of REST applications even if they do incur a minor cost in efficiency (which can be due to repeated redundant communication of data elements, or additional processing requirements due to preclusion of conversation state).
  • is much easier to understand from a data perspective than an invoice processor API.
  • However the simpler, cleaner and minimalistic abstractions often are far more important than feature richness. A point I would want to make in favour of REST even as I admit that conventional SOA technologies are far more feature rich than REST.
  • REST encourages you to view and model your architecture as a set of resources rather than services.

jQuery 1.4: What you need to know - 5 views

  •  
    Matt Nowack has taken the awesome HTML5 presentation app in HTML5, which is open source, and has created a presentation discussing jQuery 1.4. It is good stuff, using the fact that you can embed the features that you want to show. Just as long as you can hit the right arrow to get through the "look at all the people who use jQuery" part (we get it! lots of people use jQuery!)

JavaScript setTimeout Function - JavaScript Timing Events - 0 views

  •  
    JavaScript setTimeout Function - JavaScript Timing Events November 16, 2007 by Blogging Developer JavaScript features a couple of methods that lets you run a piece of JavaScript code (javascript function) at some point in the future. These methods are: * setTimeout() * setInterval() In this tutorial, I'll explain how setTimetout() method works, and give a real world example. You may find the details of setInterval() method in JavaScript setInterval Function - JavaScript Timing Events setTimeout() window.setTimeout() method allows you to specify a piece of JavaScript code (expression) will be run after specified number of miliseconds from when the setTimeout() method is called. Syntax var t = setTimeout ( expression, timeout ); The setTimeout() method returns a numeric timeout ID which can be used to refer the timeout to use with clearTimeout method. The first parameter (expression) of setTimeout() is a string containing a javascript statement. The statement could be a call to a JavaScript function like "delayedAlert();" or a statement like "alert('This alert is delayed.');". The second parameter (timeout), indicates the number of miliseconds to pass before executing the expression. Example An alert box will be shown 5 seconds later when you clicked the button. clearTimeout() Sometimes it's useful to be able to cancel a timer before it goes off. The clearTimeout() method lets us do exactly that. Its syntax is: clearTimeout ( timeoutId ); where timeoutId is the ID of the timeout as returned from the setTimeout() method call.

JavaScript Shell - 0 views

  •  
    Features: You can enter statements and expressions at the same prompt. The result of each non-void statement or expression is shown. User-defined variables. b = document.body User-defined functions. function f() { return 5; } JavaScript error messages are shown in red. Previous statements and expressions are available through Up and Down arrow keys. Tab completion. Multiline input (Shift+Enter to insert a line break). If the shell is opened using a bookmarklet, JavaScript typed into the shell runs in the context of the original window. Works well in Firefox, mostly works in Opera 8 and in IE 6 for Windows. Suggested uses: Test short bits of JavaScript, bookmarklets, or user scripts. (For longer bits of JavaScript, try the JavaScript development enviornment too.) Explore DOM objects such as document.body using props (Alt+P) to figure out what is possible. Explore the DOM of a specific page using the bookmarklet version of the shell. Modify the DOM of a specific page using the bookmarklet version of the shell. Use the shell like you would use the home screen of a calculator such as a TI-83. Alt+M gives you easy access to math functions such as sin and pow.

LightWindow Demo - 0 views

  • After researching every single modal window, lightbox, slimbox, etc out there nothing fit the bill. Granted some of them were very nice but only fit a specific purpose, others were a nightmare on the code end, and others were just hacks of another. None of them truly supported all of the features we needed and those that were close could not be easily adapted without a bottle of Prozac near by.

InfoQ: ECMAScript 5 released - 1 views

  • The introduction of strict mode aims to avoid common coding problems in ECMAScript applications. This is achieved with the presence of a lone string literal in a unit (script or function): "use strict;"
  • for either the entire script (if at the top of the script) or for a single function (if the first part of a function).

7 + 8 === 7 in JavaScript » Debuggable Ltd - 0 views

  • JavaScript assumes that any 0-prefixed string ought to be referring to an octal number. This will not become apparent until your string represents an invalid octal such as '08'. So in order to outsmart this "feature" you have to explicitly provide the base for your integer:
