Subject: Re: [jQuery] jQuery Powered Sites - Keep the Links Coming This recent site upgrade was my first site to use jQuery in any significant way: http://www.novita.org.au/ Click one or two of the italic definition links within the page content (particularly in the Disability section http://www.novita.org.au/Content.aspx?p=3 ). The definition text of the pop-ups is drawn from the definitions which are included towards the bottom of each page. JQuery made this job a whole lot easier! Making this feature screen reader friendly was particularly important. My biggest challenge was finding ways to work around IE's handling of whitespace text nodes in generated elements. jQuery and I have both since grown up a little :) I expect I would do it a little differently now. But this is the site that prompted me to look into JavaScript libraries that used CSS selectors - and I was not disappointed! jQuery now plays at least a small part in most of the ASP.Net sites built at work. There's a couple of great examples nearing completion. It took only a small (rather heavy) fling with Atlas on one particular site to make jQuery look like the smarter choice for our DOM scripting needs. This community has taught me a great deal. It has been great, as a designer, to teach the developers at work a thing or two about JavaScript :) Thank-you! _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
