The UI Pattern Factory
tech blog » Blog Archive » Some love for JavaScript applications
During our last hack week, Aakanksha Sarda and I set out to build a library that helps JavaScript developers use the Dropbox API. My main goal was to take “static” Web applications to the next level. However, the JavaScript library can be useful for any application that runs a significant part of its logic in the browser, as well as for node.js server-side code. If you prefer getting your hands dirty right away, go ahead and register for a Dropbox API key, set up an application in your Dropbox, borrow sample code, and read the library documentation. Motivation: static Web applications Thanks to recent improvements in browser support and VM performance, I often find myself writing small and medium applications completely in JavaScript, whenever I can get away with it. My interest in static Web apps is greatly influenced by how easy they are to deploy. However, up until now, having to handle per-user data has been a different story.

9 Common Usability Mistakes In Web Design | How-To
Advertisement By now, all good designers and developers realize the importance of usability for their work. Usable websites offer great user experiences, and great user experiences lead to happy customers. Delight and satisfy your visitors, rather than frustrate and annoy them, with smart design decisions. 1. Hyperlinks are designed to be clicked, so to make them usable, it makes sense to ensure that they’re easy to click. Here’s an example of the same interface element, the comments link, but this time with a much larger clickable area: Newspond comments link. Why would we want a larger clickable area? <a href=" style="padding: 5px;">Example Site<a> The CSS has been placed inline together with the markup to make the example simpler, but in real life you’ll likely want to add this styling to your CSS file by giving the link a class or id and targeting it with that. 2. Pagination refers to splitting up content onto several pages. 3. 4. The Basecamp landing page. 5.
How to create a better jQuery CSS stylesheet switcher
Style Sheet switchers (or "colour theme choosers") are not really that new. Apart from that fact, they still are pretty fun to use and cool to see. I was wondering how jQuery could help me achieve this technique. While searching, I came across several solutions. There is a problem when using these techniques, which I will explain later. Make sure to check out the demo to view what we're trying to accomplish. The cute little monsters used in the demo are created by Fast Icon (Dirceu Veiga). Normal way First, I'll show how jQuery users normally would change their CSS file. This is the trimmed down version of the HTML file. Nothing really fancy going on here - just the markup that we need for the page. Now straight to the important part of the CSS file: The colorchanger. As you can see, the boxes each have their own color and hover effect. jQuery This works great! The problem There are two problems when looking at this solution: One small one, and a bigger one. The solution That's all!
