Jquery Plugin - Youtube Playlist

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 10:54:00 +0000

For a recent client project, we wanted to be able to turn a list of YouTube links into a playlist. This would allow the client to manage their videos on YouTube and simply insert links to the videos on their site. With javascript enabled a nice playlist is created, whilst without javasript the user gets a regular list of links to youtube pages.

WinBinder: easily build native Windows applications using PHP

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 02:29:00 +0000

WinBinder is an open source extension to PHP, the script programming language. It allows PHP programmers to easily build native Windows applications, producing quick and rewarding results with minimum effort. Even short scripts with a few dozen lines can generate a useful program, thanks to the power and flexibility of PHP.

Key benefits
- Large installed base of PHP programmers.
- No compiling and linking steps necessary: just code and run.
- Access to the vast range of existing PHP functions and extensions, including databases, graphics, web functions, XML, PDF, and much more.
- A small set of WinBinder functions encapsulates many complex aspects of the Windows API and makes programming for Windows an easy task.
- Provides 100% native Windows classes and controls.
- Interfaces directly to the Window API. This means fast execution, no extra libraries and no installation required.
- Supports both procedural and object-oriented programming models.
- High performance, compares favorably to most scripting languages.
- Produces standalone applications that can be easily installed and removed with no reboot.
- Small footprint. A simple Windows application, complete with the PHP runtime and SQLite extension, is smaller than 700 kB (zipped).
- A database-independent framework allows easy coding (no SQL knowledge is necessary) and smooth integration with the WinBinder code.
- No database server required if using SQLite.
- Does not need to use to the Windows registry, but may use it if necessary.

QuickFlip jQuery Plugin

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 02:10:00 +0000

QuickFlip jQuery Plugin

QuickFlip is a jQuery plugin that uses a CSS trick to cause a div, paragraph or any other piece of HTML markup to flip like a card. With a result similar to the UI animation on the iPhone, this jQuery plugin is easily integrated into your webpage to make any portion appear to flip and show its back.

How QuickFlip works
Normally QuickFlip uses two panels: a front and a back. When a flip occurs, the front panel is split in half with Javascript. The right and left halves slide into one another, and afterwards the opposite occurs with the back panel. While it’s not as smooth as some Flash animation, it all happens so quickly that it really looks like the panel is flipping over.
