||||||||
Each time I build a new project I find myself adding in several common objects from a variety of languages. One of those objects is a JavaScript based Google Analytics tracking object.

Book review: JQuery Mobile – a first look |
||||||||
I was recently sent a copy of JQuery Mobile by Packt publishing for review. I've dabbled in the JQuery Mobile development language a fair amount, so I was interested to see what this book could teach me that may be different from the information out there in the community.

FancyBox JQuery plugin reborn as FancyApps |
||||||||
I'm a big fan of the fancybox plugin. It is a very flexible JQuery lightbox plugin that has met every project requirement I've ever needed a lightbox for. It also has a great library of events attached to it that have fit most of the User Interfaces I've ever used it in.
The fancybox plugin has matured into version 2 and been re-badged slightly as part of the fancyApps suite.
It has to be one of my top ten recommended JQuery plugins.

Licensing changes
I've since found that the new version of fancybox (2) has had a license change. Version 1 is licensed under both MIT and GPL licenses (http://docs.jquery.com/Licensing) but version 2 is 'Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0' and requires an $89.00 fee for commercial use, as discussed here in a Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/fancybox/browse_thread/thread/fc4467bf0bf3ef6d/3edff176327fed35?lnk=gst&q=license#3edff176327fed35

Using URL hashes to control AJAX requests |
||||||||
Following on from my previous article here (http://www.mccran.co.uk/index.cfm/2011/10/17/Adding-hash-values-into-URLs--The-basics) this article deals with injecting Hash values into URL's and using them to power AJAX requests.
Starting with the code of the previous article I'll expand it to include an AJAX request based on the Hash inserted into the URL.
