AJAX

Check out the ie7-js javascript library. It helps with a bunch of css, layout, hover, PNG support, etc.

I ran across Firebug a couple months back. I installed it and didn’t think much of it…this past weekend i ran into a situation where i needed to know certain CSS styles and some Javascript code that were buried in their respective files.

This extension lets you debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript, without having to open the file in an editor or right click and view the page source.

Pretty nice for development.

This is the way to get AJAX going…and gotta love that browsers all handle it differently.

[js]try { req = new XMLHttpRequest(); / e.g. Firefox / } catch(e) { try {

req = new ActiveXObject(\"Msxml2.XMLHTTP\");  /* some versions IE */

} catch (e) {

try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");  /* some versions IE */
} catch (E) {
  req = false;
}

} } [/js][…]
