<p>So everywhere you look, you see “jQuery this” and “jQuery that”. For the last year or so, this library has been the darling of the Javascript world. But do you feel that you just can’t seem to learn the dang thing? This daily video series by Jeffrey Way will teach you PRECISELY how to use the jQuery library in your own projects.</p>
<h3><a href="http://css-tricks.com/video-screencasts/1-converting-a-photoshop-mockup-part-1-of-3/" target="_blank">Converting a Photoshop Mockup</a></h3>

<p>Thanks to the wide adoption of libraries like jQuery and Mootools, JavaScript’s popularity has skyrocketed in the last few years. However, in the process, an interesting thing occurred: many newer developers are learning these libraries without taking the time to actually learn about raw JavaScript techniques. If you want to truly understand the library you’re working with, and improve your skill-set, it’s vital that you learn the fundamentals of raw JavaScript.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you just published a new post? Or want a traffic to your blog? Then you might find this list helpful. Yes, this is the list of 10 Best places from where you can get really, really huge traffic. Some of them are in moderation mode so you may have to wait for while to get in the news. But it is worth waiting. I would recommend to submit your post or article to each and every site listed below. I made this list to share some good sites available which always try to give only the best contents to the readers. So<strong> I request you to do not spam these sites</strong>, or we will loose beautiful contents on the web.</p>
<p>Remember that the traffic to your blog strongly depends upon the contents. So if you have excellent contents then submitting it to the following site will definitely make difference.</p>
<p><span id="more-1553"></span></p>
<h3>1. Hacker News</h3>

It has two news sections, Editor’s choice and Public Choice. You can broadcast your post by creating an account here. I got most traffic followed up to this site.</p>

<h3>3. Design Newz (Moderation Mode)</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1565" title="Design Newz" src="http://nikhilmisal.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/design-newz.JPG" alt="Design Newz" width="530" height="300" /></p>

<p>The .NET Award winning magazine for Best Blog is also a good choice to put your news. Although it accepts only the best contents of its niche but the traffic generated is really huge.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.noupe.com/designnews.php">Submit here</a></p>
<h3>5. PSDTUTS Community Link Feeds (Moderation Mode)</h3>

While the above sources generate traffic for a limited time but this site sends traffic even after months of publishing the post. So I guess this is the most important advantage of SU.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/favorites/">Submit here</a></p>
<h3>9. Abduzeedo User News</h3>

We do our best to avoid misunderstandings, and we try to spread knowedge and present only the best design practices and development techniques. However, sometimes we do make mistakes. And when we do, we apologize and do our best to correct what we’ve done.</p>
<h2><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1164" title="Discussing PHP Frameworks What, When, Why and Which" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/discussing-php-frameworks-what-when-why-and-which.jpg" alt="Discussing PHP Frameworks What, When, Why and Which" width="150" height="150" />17. <a title="Permanent Link to Discussing PHP Frameworks: What, When, Why and  Which?" href="http://www.noupe.com/php/discussing-php-frameworks.html">Discussing PHP Frameworks: What, When, Why and Which?</a></h2>
<p>PHP is the world’s most popular scripting language for many different reasons – flexibility, ease-of-use, among others – but often times coding in PHP, or any language for that matter, can get rather monotonous and repetitive. That’s where a PHP framework can help.</p>
<h2><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1165" title="Rotate Product Listing with PHP and jQuery" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/rotate-product-listing-with-php-and-jquery.jpg" alt="Rotate Product Listing with PHP and jQuery" width="150" height="150" />18. <a href="http://blog.themeforest.net/tutorials/rotate-product-listings-with-php-and-jquery/">Rotate Product Listing with PHP and jQuery</a></h2>
<p>Today, I’ll teach you a simple way of rotating content on your site. We’ll be retrieving data from a MySQL database and using a dynamic widget that auto refreshes using AJAX.</p>

<p>In this article I will explain how to create a PHP Class that will encrypt and decrypt any data with a given password. It is object programmed and uses existing PHP algorithms.</p>
<h2><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1167" title="The Definitive Guide to htaccess Techniques Do’s and Don’ts" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/the-definitive-guide-to-htaccess-techniques-do_s-and-don_ts.jpg" alt="The Definitive Guide to htaccess Techniques Do’s and Don’ts" width="150" height="150" />20. <a title="Permanent Link to The Definitive Guide to htaccess Techniques: Do’s and Don’ts" href="http://www.noupe.com/php/htaccess-techniques.html">The Definitive Guide to htaccess Techniques: Do’s and Don’ts</a></h2>
<p>Of all the elements of web design and coding, htaccess can be one of the most intimidating. After all, it’s an incredibly powerful tool and one that has the potential to completely break your site if you’re not careful.</p>
<h2><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1168" title="10+ Mod_Rewrite Rules You Should Know" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/10-mod_rewrite-rules-you-should-know.jpg" alt="10+ Mod_Rewrite Rules You Should Know" width="150" height="150" />21. <a title="Permanent Link to 10+ Mod_Rewrite Rules You Should Know" href="http://www.noupe.com/php/10-mod_rewrite-rules-you-should-know.html">10+ Mod_Rewrite Rules You Should Know</a></h2>
<p>Mod_rewrite is an Apache-based rewrite engine for dynamically rewriting URLs. It’s built into Apache servers natively, though not enabled by default.</p>
<p>It’s capable of functions beyond simple rewrites, though, some of which are included below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi! Last time we learned about <a href="http://nikhilmisal.com/2009/08/18/25-tips-and-tutorials-of-html-css/">basics and advanced techniques of HTML and CSS</a>. Now moving forward here are the amazing tutorials on jQuery for beginners to get started as well as for intermediate and advanced developers. So get your feet in the jQuery.</p>
<p>[digg=http://digg.com/design/25_Tutorials_a_Resources_on_jQuery_Powerusers]</p>
<p><span id="more-1054"></span></p>
<h2><a href="http://blog.themeforest.net/screencasts/jquery-for-absolute-beginners-video-series/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1055" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="jQuery For Absolute Beginners Video Series" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/jquery-for-absolute-beginners-video-series.jpg" alt="jQuery For Absolute Beginners Video Series" width="140" height="140" /></a>1. <a href="http://blog.themeforest.net/screencasts/jquery-for-absolute-beginners-video-series/">jQuery For Absolute Beginners Video Series</a></h2>
<p>So everywhere you look, you see “jQuery this” and “jQuery that”. For the last year or so, this library has been the darling of the Javascript world. But do you feel that you just can’t seem to learn the dang thing? Do you hate how the existing tutorials assume that you know WAY more than you actually do? If this rings true for you, I can help.</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.learningjquery.com/category/levels/beginner"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1056" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="Learning jQuery" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/learning-jquery.jpg" alt="Learning jQuery" width="140" height="140" /></a>2. <a href="http://www.learningjquery.com/category/levels/beginner">Learning jQuery</a></h2>
<p>In the words of <a href="http://jquery.com/">jQuery</a>’s principal developer, John Resig, “jQuery is a simple JavaScript library that helps you to write the code that you want to write and really simplifies the interaction between JavaScript and HTML.”</p>
<h2><a href="http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/24-javascript-best-practices-for-beginners/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1057" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="24 JavaScript Best Practices for Beginners" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/24-javascript-best-practices-for-beginners.jpg" alt="24 JavaScript Best Practices for Beginners" width="140" height="140" /></a>3. <a href="http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/24-javascript-best-practices-for-beginners/">24 JavaScript Best Practices for Beginners</a></h2>
<p>As a follow-up to &#8220;30 HTML and CSS Best Practices&#8221;, this week, we&#8217;ll review JavaScript! Once you&#8217;ve reviewed the list, be sure to let us know what little tips you&#8217;ve come across!</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.sohtanaka.com/web-design/jquery-easy-tips-tricks-tutorial/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1058" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="New to jQuery Don’t be Scurred" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/new-to-jquery-don_t-be-scurred.jpg" alt="New to jQuery Don’t be Scurred" width="140" height="140" /></a>4. <a href="http://www.sohtanaka.com/web-design/jquery-easy-tips-tricks-tutorial/">New to jQuery? Don’t be Scurred…</a></h2>
<p>I have been getting familiar with jQuery recently and the more I get into it, the more I’m impressed with it. When I first heard about jQuery I was definitely intimidated by it since I had no previous background with javascript, but I soon realized once you get the basics down its not very hard to pull of some neat effects.</p>
<h2><a title="Permanent Link to Learning jQuery: Revealing Photo Slider" href="http://css-tricks.com/revealing-photo-slider/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1059" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="Learning jQuery Revealing Photo Slider" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/learning-jquery-revealing-photo-slider.jpg" alt="Learning jQuery Revealing Photo Slider" width="140" height="140" /></a>5. <a title="Permanent Link to Learning jQuery: Revealing Photo Slider" href="http://css-tricks.com/revealing-photo-slider/">Learning jQuery: Revealing Photo Slider</a></h2>
<p>So in my journey to to learn jQuery, I’m trying to learn to do some things that CSS can already do but that jQuery can do “sexier”. Jonathan Snook has an article up “Content Overlay with CSS” in which extra content is revealed in a certain area when it is moused over. This inspired me to try to do something similar with jQuery. My first thought was a thumbnail photo gallery, where clicking a button would reveal the entire photo and more information about that photo.</p>
<h2><a title="Permanent Link to Learning jQuery: Fading Menu – Replacing Content" href="http://css-tricks.com/learning-jquery-fading-menu-replacing-content/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1060" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="Learning jQuery Fading Menu – Replacing Content" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/learning-jquery-fading-menu-e28093-replacing-content.jpg" alt="Learning jQuery Fading Menu – Replacing Content" width="140" height="140" /></a>6. <a title="Permanent Link to Learning jQuery: Fading Menu – Replacing Content" href="http://css-tricks.com/learning-jquery-fading-menu-replacing-content/">Learning jQuery: Fading Menu – Replacing Content</a></h2>
<p>So now instead of thinking about CSS as page layout and a way to style your page when it loads, you can use in animation and change it on-the-fly to react to events that happen on your page. Take for example a menu. You can take the “click” event that happens when clicking on a menu to do lots of stuff.</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.gcmingati.net/wordpress/wp-content/lab/jquery/newsticker/jq-liscroll/scrollanimate.html"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1061" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="News Ticker" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/news-ticker.jpg" alt="News Ticker" width="140" height="140" /></a>7. <a href="http://www.gcmingati.net/wordpress/wp-content/lab/jquery/newsticker/jq-liscroll/scrollanimate.html">News Ticker</a></h2>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s this?</strong> liScroll is a jQuery plugin that transforms any given unordered list into a <em>scrolling News Ticker. </em>To build your news ticker all you need is the above markup: an unordered list with a <strong>unique ID.</strong></p>
<h2><a href="http://www.webdesignerwall.com/tutorials/jquery-tutorials-for-designers/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1062" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="jQuery Tutorials for Designers" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/jquery-tutorials-for-designers.jpg" alt="jQuery Tutorials for Designers" width="140" height="140" /></a>8. <a href="http://www.webdesignerwall.com/tutorials/jquery-tutorials-for-designers/">jQuery Tutorials for Designers</a></h2>
<p>This article contains 10 visual tutorials intended for web designers and newbies on how to apply Javascript effects with jQuery. In case you don’t know about <a href="http://jquery.com/">jQuery</a>, it is a &#8220;write less, do more&#8221; Javascript library. It has many Ajax and Javascript features that allow you to enhance user experience and semantic coding. Since these tutorials are focused on jQuery, I’m not going to get into the details of the CSS.</p>
<h2><a title="Permanent Link to Simple jQuery Dropdowns" href="http://css-tricks.com/simple-jquery-dropdowns/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1063" style="margin: 5px 10px;" title="Simple jQuery Dropdowns" src="http://nikhilmisal.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/simple-jquery-dropdowns.jpg" alt="Simple jQuery Dropdowns" width="140" height="140" /></a>9. <a title="Permanent Link to Simple jQuery Dropdowns" href="http://css-tricks.com/simple-jquery-dropdowns/">Simple jQuery Dropdowns</a></h2>
<p>There are lots of dropdown menus already out there. I’m not really trying to reinvent the wheel here, but I wanted to try to do something slightly different by making them as dead simple as possible. Very stripped down code and minimal styling, yet still have all the functionality typically needed.</p>

<p>At the University of Minnesota&#8217;s web conference, <span style="cursor: pointer;">MinneWebCon</span> I gave a talk on, &#8220;jQuery Essentials&#8221; and it seemed well-received. I enjoyed giving the presentation and I particularly enjoyed it because I finally was able to present in my home state of Minnesota!</p>

<p>I’ve had quite a few questions regarding the tooltip on my side navigation so I figured I would write a tutorial on it. The tooltip used on my blog was actually from www.jQueryForDesigners.com, but I decided to write my own with some simple jQuery.</p>

<p>Image scrollers are of course nothing new; versions of them come out all the time. Many of them however are user-initiated; meaning that in order for the currently displayed content to change, the visitor must click a button or perform some other action. This scroller will be different in that it will be completely autonomous and will begin scrolling once the page loads.</p>

<p>Let’s take a look at bulletproof ways to ease into Javascript at an <em>accelerated</em> pace. Javascript is the perfect place to start to learn scripting because it is generally less complex than other scripting languages, and is client-side – meaning that you will be able to test your scripts on your computer as you script it, in real time, without setting up servers or putting forth any more effort than you really need to.</p>

<p>The idea is a good one: having the data on the page in a table allows it to be accessible, and the chart can be shown as a visual enhancement. Our attempt at solving the problem uses jQuery and provides several types of graphs, such as Pie, Line, Area, and Bar.</p>

<p>Sometimes it&#8217;s just fun to play around with the programming languages we know and see what we can create. I thought it might be nice to create a little online keyboard with CSS, and then make it work with jQuery. The keyboard includes &#8220;action&#8221; keys (caps lock, shift, and delete) which dynamically changes the keyboard when clicked. I&#8217;ll show you how to build it today.</p>

<p>Hi everyone, my name is Toby Pitman and Chris has asked me to write a post about a recent experiment that I posted up on the forum a little while ago. It all started when I was looking at the WebKit blog and saw an article on the new CSS3 animations and the one that caught my eye was ‘rotate’. I started thinking what the hell can you rotate on a webpage (it’s animated GIF’s times ten!). Then it hit me — a clocks hands rotate! Bingo!</p>

<p>Popular <strong>JavaScript libraries</strong> such as jQuery, MooTools, Prototype, Dojo and YUI can be great for accomplishing common JavaScript tasks.
