Pure JavaScript MP3 Decoder – jsmad

Post pobrano z: Pure JavaScript MP3 Decoder – jsmad

Advertise here with BSA

jsmad is a JavaScript-powered MP3 decoder which allows browsers to play MP3 files without Flash .

The project is actually the port of the popular libmad audio decoder and a great effort of translating 15,000 lines of C code.

jsmad

It has support for ID3 (with most of the tags) and works out-of-the-box in Firefox, requires "enabling Web Audio API" in Chrome and other browsers are not yet compatible.

As you can guess, the project is pretty experimental. With better browser support, it will be so useful specially for building real-time audio applications implemented in JavaScript.

Lightweight jQuery Plugin For Overlays: Simple Overlay

Post pobrano z: Lightweight jQuery Plugin For Overlays: Simple Overlay

Advertise here with BSA

Overlays are used widely when we need to block HTML elements or the full body and transfer the attention of the user to a specific point.

There are high-quality plugins for creating overlays but most of them come with Lightbox or modal dialog capabilities and sometimes all we need is only the overlay.

jQuery Simple Overlay

Simple Overlay is a flexible and lightweight jQuery plugin that can display the overlay using jQuery's fade effect, slide effect or no effect at all and can be improved further with built-in CSS hooks like CSS3-glossy effects.

The overlay can also be customized more by setting its color, opacity level, whether it'll be removed with onClick and more.

Thanks to custom callbacks, any functions can be fired after onShow and onHide events.

PHP Library For Creating & Validating Forms – Zebra_Form

Post pobrano z: PHP Library For Creating & Validating Forms – Zebra_Form

Advertise here with BSA

Building good-looking HTML forms which work well in every browser and applying client+server-side validation usually takes a serious development time.

Zebra_Form, a free PHP library, handles this process very well and enables us to create secure and chic forms with a few lines of PHP code.

The output can be generated either with the ready-to-use styles (with valid HTML) or with any new/custom ones.

Zebra_Form

An integrated cross-site scripting prevention mechanism removes any possible malicious code submitted. It also helps preventing automated spam submissions.

The client-side validation is handled with jQuery, alerts are displayed inside tooltips and many validation types can be used (like "required, e-mail, length, etc.").

Besides standard input types, Zebra_Form supports Ajax-like file uploads, date-time pickers and captchas.

TN3 Gallery – jQuery Image Gallery With Multiple Albums – 5 Licenses Giveaway

Post pobrano z: TN3 Gallery – jQuery Image Gallery With Multiple Albums – 5 Licenses Giveaway

Advertise here with BSA

TN3 Gallery is a professional and very flexible jQuery image gallery plugin for displaying and rotating a collection of images in various ways.

It works cross-browser (including mobile), has multiple transition effects, can show captions and present the thumbnails horizontally or vertically.

TN3 Gallery

The plugin can automatically generate these thumbnails with or without resizing them on the server-side (with the help of a PHP file) and enable users to browse the gallery by clicking to these thumbnails.

Thumbnails are not the only way to view the images, there are also prev-next buttons, mouse-wheel + keyboard support, auto-slideshow and, optionally, bullet-type-of-navigation can be used rather than thumbnails.

A lovely feature is the ability to present multiple albums with each album having its own thumbnail and caption to help users better understand "what is inside".

TN3 Gallery Multiple Albums

TN3 Gallery can use XML as the data source which is great for integrating the gallery with 3rd party software like CMS applications.

For maximum customization, the API comes to the aid in every point with functions to change everything.

There are also many other features like Flickr integration, skinning, fullscreen display, support for Cufon or @font-face and more.

It comes in 3 flavors;

  • Lite: with limited features and free
  • Pro: with all the features and licenses to a single site
  • Multi-Site: with all the features and licenses to unlimited sites

Post pobrano z: Social Coding for Subversion – uberSVN

Flash-Like Animations With JavaScript – Mashi

Mashi has a "controls" module which provides buttons like "play" and "pause" with their logics and it works in all major browsers including mobile and tablet.
