When we talked about JoobsBox, a comment suggested that I should take a look at jobberBase, but despite the fact I didn’t keep my promise to check it later that week, I never forgot about it. Even more, yesterday, while I was browsing the Web without any special purpose, I bumped into some site mentioning jobberBase, and I decided to go ahead and take a closer look at it, so here we are…

…checking jobberBase, “the open-source
job board software that helps [...]

Some people I know simply love Web-based editors, but I must say I’m not exactly crazy about them. No matter if we’re talking about code or some article, I’m always more comfortable using Notepad++ or some other similar tool that I have installed in my computer already, and I don’t have to get into detail with this – after all, it doesn’t really matter what you like to use, as long as you get the job done, right?

Today, I have [...]

Some time ago, creating menus for a site was nothing less but art. I only said “menus,” yes? Good, because when talking about animated menus, we were already stepping into “Voodoo land” already, at least for most people using the Internet back then! Now, creating animated/dynamic menus has become a trivial task, and Kwicks is here to prove that.

Since this time there’s no big story to tell, let me tell you only this: Kwicks is a jQuery plugin that allows [...]

In my early freelancing days, I had to perform (a lot of!!) basic data entry tasks on some osCommerce-based site. After cursing the hell out of that platform, I got out of that job with my reputation clean, but decided to think more than just once or twice before playing with any kind of shopping cart piece of code.

Fortunately, the path I followed in the meantime helped me stay away from any kind of shopping cart (except those situations when [...]

For a pretty long time, I lived without a clock or a cell phone, that after having both of them. I can tell you that dropping those two devices that turn you into a slave is a real blessing, but – unfortunately – you can’t live like this forever… or maybe you can, but most of us can’t. Anyway, if you want to have some clocks ticking on your site, I got a little something for you right here, right [...]

These days, I think that a brilliant Web developer with a bit of talent in design can come up with amazing stuff without even touching Flash or Silverlight. Sure, I know people who unleash magic with Photoshop and a plain text editor like Notepad, but we won’t go that far today. Anyway, I am sure that some jQuery-based effects can help more people get the job done, so here’s Blend!

jQuery Blend, or just Blend, if you like to keep things [...]

Once you start writing on a blog, you’ll also start adding images to your articles, too. So far, so good, but if we forget about copyright and image optimization issues, there are still some image-related things we should take care of, and having nice image captions is one of them. Sure, you don’t necessarily need to have a blog to need a nice look for your images, and the good news is that ImageCaption works with any site you can [...]

Today it seems we’re flooded with image galleries, and I don’t think this is something bad. After all, the Internet wouldn’t be what it is today without its multimedia component, so I am sure you won’t be angry because I decided to bring AD Gallery into the spotlight!

To make things as clear as possible, I should only say that AD Gallery is a image gallery/showcase plugin for jQuery with a lot of customization possibilities and, as far as I [...]

One of the things a lot of Windows users dream of is the Mac OS X dock. No need to say more about it, don’t you think? After all, you can always get some of that RocketDock awesomeness and have a dock right on your Windows desktop, but there’s something even better, at least for developers: a dock-like menu right on your Web page!

iconDock is the jQuery plugin that will turn the Mac OS X dock dream into reality, allowing [...]

No, the title is not wrong. I understand unusual capitalization of certain brands, but when somebody decides to use “tablesorter” as the name of a product, that’s a bit above my ability to understand. Anyway, we’re not going to talk about the name, this was just a thought… since you get to use the code, and no matter its name, if a jQuery plugin gets the job done, who cares about its name?

tablesorter is a MIT/GPL-licensed jQuery plugin that allows [...]
