Is it possible to have XML-embedded JavaScript executed to assist in client-side (browser-based) XSL transformations? How is it done and how official is it? Microsoft's XML DOM objects allow this on the server-side (i.e. in ASP/ASP.NET). Clarification: I do not mean HTML DOM scripting performed after the document is transformed, nor d...
In Google Reader, you can use a bookmarklet to "note" a page you're visiting. When you press the bookmarklet, a little Google form is displayed on top of the current page. In the form you can enter a description, etc. When you press Submit, the form submits itself without leaving the page, and then the form disappears. All in all, a very...

As the title states, I'd be interested to find a safe feature-based (that is, without using navigator.appName or navigator.appVersion) way to detect Google Chrome. By feature-based I mean, for example: if(window.ActiveXObject) { // internet explorer! } Edit: As it's been pointed out, the question doesn't make much sense (obviousl...

Google Maps used to do this bit where when you hit the "Print" link, what would be sent to the printer wasn't exactly what you had on the screen, but rather a differently-formatted version of mostly the same information. It appears that they've largely moved away from this concept (I guess people didn't understand it) and most websites...

You might want to know about this in order to capture information on a site you create or, as a user, to prevent a site from capturing data on you.
