Does anyone have a good recommendation for a drop shadow jQuery plugin?
I've been working on a project that had every element on the page with a subtle drop shadow, we started using RUZEE to do the shadows but there was a severe performance hit when you had more then 4 or 5 shadows being calculated on the page.
I went to writing my own plugin, I call it simple shadow and it only uses jQuery to inject images in floating div's around the div you want a drop shadow. Nothing elegant but for the purpose of completing that site it worked without performance hits.
Now my plugin isn't anything special but I am still in search for a good light weight shadow plugin.
CSS 3 will support drop shadow. Firefox and Safari are already supporting the feature.
You might want to use that instead of the jQuery functionality, since it will run in browsers who have turned off javascript.
Take a look at http://www.css3.info/preview/box-shadow/ for a demo of the shadow.
The original site hosting the jQuery Dropshadow plugin has apparently gone down.
For anyone looking for it, I'm currently hosting it on my Dropbox account.
jQuery UI also provides drop shadow functionality.
The JQuery UI no longer supports shadow functionality.
try the FontEffect jQuery Plugin, sorry I can't post the link, but you can find it easily on google or jQuery plugin site.

So far I've been using jquery ui's draggables and droppables, but I've also heard of extjs and I'm sure there are more. I'm looking to develop a (hopefully) professional plugin. What would be the best library to use and or is anyone aware of any limitations to jquery ui's functions for this?
I'm going to need to go 1-3 layers deep at least of dropping things inside each other, if not more.
There are various options available to you even including the possibility of writing your own drag and drop functionality if you really wanted.
jQuery UI isn't a bad choice and there will be plenty of support going down that route. jQuery UI sortables sounds to fit the behaviour you desire. I've used this for nested drag and drop in the past.
dragula is a nice vanilla js alternative for drag and drop behaviour supporting IE7+ that could also be a good choice.
Hope that helps!
Depends on the browsers you need to support. HTML5 has native drag & drop support, so if you only have to support IE9 and above, you can just use the attribute draggable=true and handle the drag events; see http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_draganddrop.asp for examples. If you need to support IE8, however, jquery ui is the best (read: easiest) I've used.

I know these types of "questions" are discouraged but since I have quite specific needs I believe this question does have a definitive answer.
I need an image carousel that meets the following requirements:
I can make my own transitions (basically I want to apply a class and have a CSS transition)
Mobile support with swipe
My own markup if possible
Manual switching as well as automatic switching
Is there any library like this out there?
I've tried Flexslider but it doesn't allow me to have my own transitions.
Maybe I'm better off just using Swipe JS and writing my own transitions, though there are many edge cases to be aware of so I'd rather not do this myself.
jQuery Cycle is a very good plug in that mostly does what you want.
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/
You can use any of the default transitions or create your own named ones in the options.
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/adv2.html
I ended up using a custom built version for desktop and SwipeJS for touch devices.

As the title says, I am searching a very tiny rich text editor. Every editor I've seen is big and has too many features. All I need is buttons to make text bold, italic, set the font of text, set the style to a paragraph or a heading and to add/edit links. I won't have a big library for that.
I think I will need to change it a bit. I have to integrate an image upload (already existing) as a feature to add and resize images in the content.
Thank's in advance.
Check out:
TinyEditor
TinyEditor is a simple JavaScript WYSIWYG editor that is both
lightweight (8KB) and standalone. It can easily be customized to
integrate with any website through CSS and the multitude of
parameters. It handles most of the basic formatting needs and has some
functionality built in to help keep the rendered markup as clean as
possible.
If you using bootstrap. Consider to use summernote.
Super Simple WYSIWYG Editor on Bootstrap.
http://summernote.org
It depends on what you're looking for. Do you need WYSIWYG? If not, I've had success using markitup:
http://markitup.jaysalvat.com/home/
Did you look at TinyMCE?
If you're using bootstrap try Bootstrap-WYSIWYG
How about bootstrap-editor?
It's simple and beautiful. It extends bootstrap-wysihtml5 with file-uploading feature (by using jQuery-File-Upload).

I've been searching for a long time now for a fairly simple JavaScript based tooltip solution. It needs to be:
Open-Source and freely re-distributable, and allows my application to include it which would be distributable via free or commercial license.
'Sticky' i.e when opened it stays visible until the user clicks a little close button on it or ESC button is pressed.
Style-able via CSS (preferably) or JavaScript.
Compatible with IE6 or IE7 onwards, as well as modern browsers ;)
I did manage to find http://www.nickstakenburg.com/projects/prototip2/ (see the buttons example on that page) which meets all the requirements - except that I wouldn't be able to distribute what I'm creating for free which makes it a no-go :(
It only needs to able to handle basic HTML (div, p, span, img, etc) within the tooltip.
Thanks,
Alex
Use qTip a jQuery based opensource tooltip plugin, you can control the events when to show the tip. for example show: { when: { event: 'click' } } this will show the tooltip on click on the target element. Hope this helps
If you're looking for a tooltip that also works without a library (like jQuery) you can use Opentip which uses adapters for all major frameworks, and provides a native adapter that doesn't need a framework.
It's open source and MIT licensed.

I am looking for a JavaScript based carousel such as absolute website. The main part that I am interested in is that it slides in a similar way to the main site flash, highlighting one item/image at a time and items are in a line.
Plug-in for any kind of library is welcome but indeed I would prefer jQuery based one as I have used it for my earlier works.
And yes I have done lots of googling but wasn't lucky enough :)
jCarousel is still a classic.
I can't open your example so I'm not sure it has all the features you want.
Check out the jQuery UI Carousel. It's still in development, but usable :)
MooFlow is beautiful!
EDIT: ImageFlow seems to a good alternative.
I'm a jQuery user. I've just used JCarousel w/ jQuery 1.3.2. on a Joomla 1.5.x.
It works fine even on Internet Explorer 6 (which is a pretty good thing, hehe). Hope it helps.
