I have got a problem with a slider. When i grab the handler, i change the .src of the image, just to change its color. However, i want it to change back to the original color when i release the mouse button.

The situation is next: I have php file, which parses a web-page. on that web-page is a phone number and it's digits are mixed with each other.

I am looking for a consistent way to determine when Flash is going to be unloaded. I need to handle this event in order to call a tracking API once rather than each analytical event.

I'm about to start coding a new, javascript-heavy website, but before I start I'd like to minimize my debugging time in Internet Explorer by knowing beforehand what the quirks are. I'm not planning to worry too much about IE6. What are the common mistakes/differences to avoid in javascript code that work fine in other browsers, but brea...
I'm trying to find an elegant way to inform a user that s/he is about to be logged out and I know that most browsers will give you some indication that a hidden tab has an alert box open. I would like to duplicate this functionality without actually showing an alert box. I have thought about forcing the tab/window to gain focus, but tha...

We're currently pulling jQuery and jQueryUI (and jQueryUI CSS) libraries from the google CDN. I like this because I can call google.load("jquery", "1"); and the latest jQuery 1.x.x will be used. Now I am to pull the libraries locally because of security. I'm happy to pull them locally but I'm wondering what are some of the other benef...

Hi, I'm trying to implement a JQuery autocomplete widget based on a php service I have built. Right now, for testing, the service is extremely simple and only returns an array of three names. While debugging with firebug, I'm noticing my service is returning a code 200, but there is no response text that comes along with it. Obviously, ...
What's your strategy for passing parameters to unobtrusive Javascript? Say we have three dynamically generated input fields which need to be validated for ranges: <input id="smallValue" class="validatedRange" /> <input id="mediumValue" class="validatedRange" /> <input id="largeValue" class="validatedRange" /> In the Javascript: Ext....

Are there any real world examples of a major modern library being incompatible with extending Object.prototype? I'm not interested in hypothetical "someone may write bad for in iteration code in a library that you want to...
Well, that's pretty much my whole question. I can see how they check for CSS3-support, trying to fetch style.borderRadius and such to see if the browser knows what the heck is going on. But since most browsers will let the attribute stay (<input type="date">), but still not support it fully, I can't understand how they do their magic. ...
