You have probably seen this effect. The one when you have the mouse over text or a thumbnail you get a bigger instant preview of the image. Now a jquery plugin is available for this kind of thing, it’s really small (1kb minified) and provides a cool set of options for you to customise. For instructions, demo and download visit imgPreview’s official page.

Multiselectable jQuery Plugin

January 19th, 2009 - Frontend, jQuery - No Comments

We all now that the <select> tag gives us an option to select multiple values. Well, while it’s really easy to do it, u can’t count especially on public web applications that everyone knows how to do it (yes, by pressing the CTRL key and selecting the values) and Multiselectable jQuery Plugin solves this problem in a really nice way by using 2 select lists. One with the available options and one for the options that we need to select. It’s been used before but if you are jQuery fan then this is nice (and clean) implementation of the technique. For more info visit its official page.

We do know that browser alert dialog boxes look ugly. They look different from browser to browser and while sometimes this is a good thing as the user is used to their browser’s alert dialog boxes, there are times that we need a common style for our alert, prompt or confirm dialog boxes. jQuery Alert Dialogs is a jQuery plugin that will take care of this. With many styling options this is probably all you need. Read more at its official website and view the demos.
