Some of these snippets are going to be things that have just been supported with jQuery 1.4.2 whilst others are really useful functions or methods that can help you do things better or quicker. I’ve tried to bare in mind optimal performance with these snippets so if there’s anything you see that you think could be done better, please feel free to post your version in the comments!.

Over the past year, we’ve seen website toolbar’s become an increasingly popular way for site-owners to offer users a consistent set of powerful social features, regardless of what page they’re on – Share, Subscribe, Tweet, Talk – you name it and chances are there’s a toolbar out there that offers some variation of these features. Facebook were one of the first companies to introduce this toolbar concept and have been the source of inspiration for many others.
Taking a leaf from their book, companies like Wibiya and Meebo have been at the forefront of a toolbar-for-the masses revolution, offering easily customizable widgets for almost anyone to install on their pages. Larger companies have also been hopping onto the toolbar-band too, with sites like CNET.com embracing this concept as a way to offer their visitors more ways to interact with their site.
In today’s post, I’m going to show you how to create your very own jQuery-powered website toolbar and then we’re going to pack it full of lots of useful widget features such as those found in the Wibiya-toolbar – I call it jQuery Fubar.

After a few weeks away in the US, I’m back with a brand new jQuery post – this week taking a look at a new style of navigation menu. jQuery has made it simple for developers to define an idea or wireframe for a component and then implement it reasonably quickly, which has certainly helped it become the most popular JavaScript Framework out there at the moment. I feel like some of the navigation options out there right now don’t provide you with enough information about the sections of a site you can visit, so today we’re going to learn how to create a menu that solves this problem.

Hi guys. Today I wanted to share with you interface tutorials for some of the ideas I’ve found quite inspiring over the past few weeks. In this post you’ll find tutorials that will teach you how to create easily switchable gallery views, a 3D rotating share button carousel, the Facebook Admin Panel and much more. We often come across small pieces of design that make us pause and think .. “Wow. I really want to do that..” so I hope that this post goes a little way towards helping you add a few special touches to your own interfaces.

Preface: Chris Coyier, of CSS-Tricks fame, recently gave an excellent presentation on how to extend CSS using jQuery. I remember seeing this wonderful presentation floating around recently but hadn’t been aware of who the author was until now. I would like to apologize to every one of my readers, including Chris, for posting this article up without any reference to the slides author – my original online source didn’t include any mention of him (or any author for that matter) so I had rather foolishly gone ahead with the use of them without investing more time into researching who put them up. This revised version of the article gives full credit to Chris who is indeed the man that gave the original presentation and was kind enough to give his permission for his slides to be used. I and this article would like to thank him for being the main inspiration behind this topic.
Having viewed Chris’s presentation, I thought I’d write a post around it to help my readers see how jQuery helps us to extend CSS in ways that make our jobs a whole lot easier. I’ve always thought that jQuery was extraordinary framework – allowing both web developers and designers an easy way to harness the full visual capabilities of JavaScript. One of the nicest advantages of jQuery has been ability to extend CSS beyond what was previously capable with simple mark-up alone. In this post, I’m going to show you how to use jQuery to fix cross browser compatibility issues, solve some shortcomings with CSS, do things CSS just can’t do on it’s own and we’ll finally also go through some real-world problems that will be useful to both those new to the framework and those coders who’ve been using it for a while. I hope you find it helpful!.
