Cool stuff: Less code is always better, jQuery content slider in 380 bytes

February 1st, 2010

Sometimes you really need a complex tool, that has all sort of options and settings. But usually that’s not the case. At least not for me. As a web developer I usually look only for core functionality, because i will have to customize it anyway, and its so simple to do when you  have only 14 lines of code. Even  more: it’s all you need. Less code – less bandwidth. Less code – faster execution. Etc. Etc.

I am talking about jQuery content slider, that was posted in webdeveloperjuice.com blog. I love it!

Procrastination: youtube on repeat!

January 18th, 2010

DIY youtube on repeat. Drag this button ->> Play4ever <<– to your bookmark toolbar. Click it when you want the video on youtube to play on repeat.

This is the same just packed in html. useful if you want to control youtube in your site: flash.html (xHTML and JS are commented, so feel free to view source)

And by the way, this is a nice place to procrastinate: Youtube APIs and Tools

Ext JS platform

Ext JS is a Javascript platform for web application development.

It looks just like regular desktop application (or the desktop itself if you prefer). Now it’s very easy to create applications like gmail and google reader. Or maybe something that looks even better!

Check out this page to see a lot more of cool demos and samples:

Wordpress N.B.: Taxonomy will be hierarchical only when it is registered as hierarchical.

January 9th, 2010

If you want to use ‘child_of’, ‘parent=’ and similar arguments in function get_terms(), then you have to register taxonomy as hierarchical first. Here is how you do it:

register_taxonomy(
‘Your taxonomy name’,
‘object_type’,
array( ‘hierarchical’ => true)
);

On the related topic I am curiuos, what benefit wordpress gets by separating hierarchical and non-hierarchical taxonomies.

Merry Christmas everyone!
