jQuery for Beginners
Posted: 23rd Nov 2009
Following my article on Woorkup, I thought I'd just post a working demo of what I wrote about - a basic jQuery form fade.
Copy and paste the code below in to your website, and it should work! I have also put a working demo below as well.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.pack.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('.showform').click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
$('#mydiv').fadeIn();
});
});
</script>
<!--Start of container div, and form-->
<div id="mydiv" style="display:none;">
<form id="myform" action="wherever.php" method="post">
<input name="myinput" type="text" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
</div>
<p>To show the form <a class="showform" href="/mylink.php">click here</a>.</p>
<!-- End of form and container div -->
To show the form click here.

Jquery Field Replace
Posted: 15th May 2009
It's time for some cool Jquery code, it has been too long - we do apologise.
I've been working on my Jquery Field Replace script which automatically switches the value of an input with the title. This is useful if you want to auto populate an input field to explain what it does but not keep it in there. Code is all yours, but please credit us or at least let us know if you have used it by dropping a comment. Enjoy!
Jquery Lightbox for HTML?
Posted: 22nd Apr 2009
We were trying to find a lightbox plugin that works well for HTML (not just images). Normally we would use Shadowbox but they do charge for a commercial license. So another great plugin one can use and easily adapt for use in your own site - is Facebox which looks and feels just like the Facebook popup. We have adapted it lots to make it work well with our apps and it's great. Check it out here.
Jquery Form Validation - Checking Fields
Posted: 8th Apr 2009
TECHY WARNING: Warning this post has 'techy-talk' be warned.
We thought we would share a cool way of checking form fields in Jquery. Just set the submitButton and the requiredFields variables and you are on your way. It is really useful for for validating a form before sending the data to the server (and you should always check before AND after sending the form don't forget!). This could be made in to an even neater, packed function if I had time, maybe later.
Have a play...
Jquery Zoom Effect
Posted: 6th Apr 2009
We just found an amazing Jquery zoom plugin which we've used on a clothes shop website. It is very cool check it out!
Jquery Dropdown Menu
Posted: 3rd Apr 2009
We have just revised the drop down menu on our CMS. We wanted something that had a really small filesize, was really simple, fast, worked in all browsers and used Jquery. Previously we had been using something that was quite slow and were finding glitches with it in IE6. Now we have found something REALLY simple and it justs uses Jquery to add and remove classes. The CSS is simpler too!
Jquery Date Picker
Posted: 9th Mar 2009
We have been looking around for a nice way of selecting dates in forms. You see them a lot when you go to flight comparison sites. Well we found one that is very cool and utilises the Jquery UI library. Funnily enough, it is called date picker - look out for it in our apps!
Select all checkboxes with JQuery
Posted: 6th Mar 2009
We have just built a cool 'select all checkboxes' function in JQuery and released the code. It is for administrators of Halogy to be able to simply grant permissions to their users at a category level, but if they want to they can open up the category and grant individual permissions.

New portfolio section using JQuery Carousel
Posted: 3rd Mar 2009
We have just launched a new Portfolio section called Our Work. It uses a (quite heavily) adapted version of jCarouselLite. We are quite chuffed with it, and also it worked first time in IE6!
A cool new AJAX search feature
Posted: 2nd Mar 2009
We have just implemented a cool new tag based AJAX search feature to the Halogy blog system. It searches tags or keywords that are attached to the blog posts, and then returns the top results underneath. Like the Google "Suggestions" system.
