I was getting kind of frustrated with some of the lack of Database CSV scripts I was finding. None of them really did what I wanted - of course not every script out there is suited for your own personal needs. I thought I would whip something up that’s pretty flexible when thrown into various situations.

It’s Sunday afternoon and it is probably the hottest day Ottawa has been hit with so far. So I went out to The Bay, bought an air conditioner, sat on my computer and hacked away. I decided to make a small jQuery plugin that provides an unobtrusive approach to using images as checkboxes and radio buttons. I had seen a few out there that just take care of the checkboxes and that don’t work at all with labels. I figured that I can whip something up that might help a lot of people out. The script figures out whether it’s a checkbox or a radio button - you just have to provide some styling info.

Well as awesome as it sounds, it’s pretty cool how it works. It’s a sliding menu built with jQuery that allows you to achieve a "flash" kind of horizontal content scroll. I know you may have seen it before, but do the other ones bounce and ease when you click them? Hopefully not! (more…)

I wrote something last night that will save a lot of people a lot of time. It’s a class that opens a .csv file (normally saved through Excel) and parses your data accordingly to build an INSERT query for it. Then it inserts all of the information into whatever table you specified. You can also choose to create the table if it doesn’t exist. (more…)

First off, Merry Christmas! For those of you who feel that I’m scrouge for not giving you anything for Christmas, well I’m about to prove you wrong. I spent a few hours on Christmas eve building a little tabbed menu script. (more…)

After reviewing the CSS for a star rating system at komodomedia.com, I decided to make my own star rating system using AJAX. There are a few out there, one is another really good one created by Ryan Masuga over at www.masugadesign.com. I really could have just used his, but oh no, I needed to challenge myself - and I wanted to add feature or two. (more…)

I created this form class for a project I was doing that used multiple fields. Now let’s face it, making a variable for over 30 fields is just rediculous. This simple form class is meant to simplify your life! You can make as many fields as you want in your HTML and have them either emailed to you or inserted into your database. (more…)
