Formatting a number with grouped thousands (11)
In PHP, formatting a number with grouped thousands can easily peasily be done through the number_format() function. It’s a shame JavaScript doesn’t have such a function.

On in what ways the world of web developers would be a better place if only IE wasn’t shit. Read more →
Highlighting alternate sorttable rows (20)

- Via del.icio.us I stumbled upon The Real-time HTML Editor™. This indeed is a cool little tool for experimenting with (X)HTML, though I found its code could be better. A couple of Bad Things it involves are frames, hard refreshes, and no semantics. Since live previews are commonly-used bits of JS in the world of weblogs, I figured this could be done better. And look: even I managed to create an online HTML editor with real-time preview and no hard refreshes! How cool is that? :) (10) ¶
- I just made a kick-ass favelet for the kick-ass Polaroid-o-nizer tool that’s been, like, kicking ass lately. Just point your favourite browser to an image, then click Polaroid-o-nize. Need an image to try it on? No problem. Have fun Polaroid-o-nizing! (15) ¶

I think I’m not the only one who sometimes desperately wants to see how a page would look with a little Fitts’ Law applied to body text links. My preferation goes out to

For those who don’t know what the hell I’m talking about: just by placing
.nyud.net:8090after a page’s domain name, you can cause it to be cached in a big network of free caching computers. Cool eh? Well, here’s the favelet (my first ever!): Free Cache. Happy caching! (0) ¶

The comments textarea resizer is a very popular piece of JavaScript in the world of bloggers. I first saw it in use on Dunstan’s — I even think he wrote the script. (I’m not sure though, as there’s no blog post making it official or anything.) Read more →
