For a long time I was using Firefox just for Firebug. You know, sort of like when two people stay married for the kid. I was sick and tired of how Firefox rendering looked, hard to explain just not quite as smooth. When Chrome for Mac was released in the beta phases I was stoked… [...]
WTFramework Summary
WTFramework is a dead simple, and well designed way to detect which framework a site is using as well as version. Being primarily a JavaScript developer I was always looking through the source to find which framework a certain site was using. Or to see if the developer had done something particularly cool with [...]
This is a relatively simple concept and is nothing to elaborate but I wanted to share a small piece of code that will take every link with the class of “ajax” and access it using AJAX instead of actually going to that page. This using the same Request instance which will keep it optimized and [...]
In my attempt to use MooTools on new projects with other developers, share MooTools with other developers, or just releasing a MooTools class; I’ve come across the same complaints about this incredible framework.
MooTools Complaints
Poor Documentation
While its true MooTools is poorly documented compared to other frameworks it is still worth learning and with people like Aaron [...]
Let it be known. This class doesn’t have a lot of options but it is fairly dynamic. If people actually use this class I will make it more customizable to the options and not just the class itself.
While this is nothing special and there are plenty of great MooTools graphing systems out there I wanted [...]

For Example: A company has a page full of images of employees that work for them with links to their Facebook accounts or personal websites. What if I’m not [...]
While this is a very basic piece of code it adds a very nice effect to any item you choose. The MooTools Fader Class will fade any item to a specified opacity and fade it back to a specified opacity.
This is a small piece of code that is mostly the brain child of the incredible David Walsh. His version is written in MooTools and you can see it here. There are a few differences however, I removed some of the basic form validation, I set up a Gravatar function to be called onBlur rather [...]
So I’ve been wanting to write a class like this for a while now and I finally got around to it. It creates a content slider. That being said a content slider could be a number of things these days but, this particular one creates a slider that manipulates the position of the content in [...]
Hopefully the plug-ins and classes I write are simple enough to figure out and manipulate. Its an extremely simple and customizable little testimonial rotator that also supports HTML. So yes your quotes can have links, logos or even avatars. It will support as many quotes or testimonials you may need. The options that can be [...]
