Extendable Flash Banner with jQuery Flash
Saturday, July 26th, 2008
Yesterday I had to figure out a way to make an extendable banner in Flash that when extended covers the content. The main idea with the approach I took is to load the shockwave in a div tag that is positioned above the content and have a movieclip in the shockwave for instance move down when the mouse is positioned over it....

jQuery Treeview with MODx Wayfinder
Sunday, July 6th, 2008I’ve begun creating a site for a friend of mine who will sell diving, Asian Diving Vacation (please don’t bitch about the way it looks at this point, it’s a work in progress, the only reason I’m linking to it at this point is because there is also a lot of bitching about demos going on, so here you go demo freaks) . I’m using MODx because it simply rocks for the purpose, we don’t need any strange modules that would require something from the giant repositories of Drupal or Joomla.
There will be a lot of information on the site and I hate drop down menus because they don’t keep state when you browse, a tree view would though. The one I chose is made by Jörn Zaefferer.... Read More

The blog saga continues, we still don’t have any fancy Wordpress style filtering of the content. You know, creating these nice looking quotes and filtering potentially nasty html and stuff. Sure enough, TinyMCE has some function for allowing only certain tags and discarding others but I haven’t had time to look at that yet, I will though… Fancy filtering is not in the requirements for this project either however. But changing and deleting blog posts are necessary actions though, so is some kind of search for articles. Let’s begin by looking at what’s been added to the desktop menu:... Read More
