Karl,
Thanks. I do plan to continue it. If you have any specific suggestions for
improvement I can get on them ASAP.
And yes; the idea was that creating a widget with this mini-library would be
ridiculously easy (I had to read all of the API to create this, and let me
tell you that it is *not* easy as it currently stands).

Hey Yehuda,I've been meaning to respond to this for a while. Just wanted
to say that I'm really impressed with the initial work you've put into this
and hope that you'll continue developing it. It shows a lot of promise, and
the tiny bit of code that would be needed, along with jquery.js and your
plugin, to create a widget is remarkable. Keep up the great work!

I've begun work on a Safari widget pack, that allows you to work with
Safari widgets in a way more jQuery way.
For example:
var y =
$("#scrollArea").makeScrollAreaWithBars({singlepressScrollPixels: 50}, {id:
"scrollBar"}, {id: "horizBar"})
.bind("mouseover", function() { y.focus(); }).bind("mouseout",
function() { y.blur(); })
z = $("button").makeGlassButton();
z[0].click(function() { y.horizontalScrollbar ().toggleAutohide();
});
z[1].click(function() { y.verticalScrollbar().toggle(); })
The above code does the following:
Line 1: Converts a div with id scrollArea into an AppleScrollArea with
horizontal and vertical scrollBars (with attributes provided)
Line 2: binds a mouseover event to the newly created scrollArea widget and
then a mouseout event
Line 3: Converts all buttons on the page into glass buttons, and returns
an array of the new glass buttons
Line 4: Gets the first glassButton and binds a click handler which toggles
the autohide on the scrollArea's horizontal scrollbar
Line 5: Gets the second glassButon and binds a click handler which toggles
the vertical scrollbar
This would obviously be way more than 5 lines if you used the Apple API ;)
The files are in the plugins in svn under safari_widgets. There's still a
lot of work to do, but I wanted to get some feedback on the work I did. The
best way to look at it is to open the HTML file that's packed with the svn.
You'll need OSX 10.4.3 or higher.
Thanks!
