"This jQuery plugin implements a simplified version of the CSS3 text-overflow property. The text-overflow property allows stylesheet authors to specify how and where text should be clipped. This is usually done by adding an ellipsis character "…" or three dots at the point the text should be cut off. Various browsers support this property, such as Opera, Internet Explorer and Safari. Firefox unfortunately does not. However, using this plugin you can simulate this functionality (well, as close as you can get without a native implementation.)" - Micah Wittman from Bookmarklet

jQuery replaceText: String replace for your jQueries! (This plugin was just made available Nov 21, 2009) - http://benalman.com/project...
"So, why not just set .html( new_text ) ? While using the jQuery .html() method is one of the fastest ways to replace text in a huge HTML structure, when you do this, all event handlers and references bound to any child elements are lost. This is not good!" - Micah Wittman from Bookmarklet
Example: $("body *").replaceText( /this|that/gi, "the other" ); - Micah Wittman
Example: $("body *").replaceText( /(something)/gi, "<b>$1<\/b>" ); - Micah Wittman

jQuery Plugin: Tracing Your Selector Paths - http://www.bennadel.com/blog...
"The way the tracer works is that it starts at the top of the selector path and walks through each selector step, adding a CSS class to each set of resultant nodes, giving them each a successively darker background color." - Micah Wittman from Bookmarklet

A good presentation by Paul Irish I caught at the jQuery Summit today. Having a second chance to look at the slides shows there's a bunch of good information there (the actual presentation was rushed...) Good stuff. - Lindsay from Bookmarklet
Thanks, Lindsay. And - good to see you! Your feed's been quiet, but you're busy at the summit (and probably lots else), but you had me worried for a bit there :) - Micah Wittman
Yeah, been kind of busy lately at work and otherwise... but a lot of interesting stuff to post about at the summit. Still at work, attending remotely. - Lindsay

Transfr - Python / Django, jQuery based file sharing web app. #OpenSource - http://haineault.com/projects/
"Transfr is a simple file sharing application developped in house at Centdessin Design. The first goal was to make the process of sharing files securely as easy as possible for our graphic designers and our clients. After years of using the FTP protocol to transfer files between our graphic designers and clients we got tired of the recurrents problems that can't be fixed with FTP." - Micah Wittman from Bookmarklet

Aptana Jaxer - The Javascript Server
"Create entire apps using JavaScript and Ajax Use the same ubiquitous set of languages you find in the Web browser, on the server to build full apps or presentation tiers faster and more easily." Use jQuery on the server side, yo! - Lindsay from Bookmarklet
OH GOD NO. I use JavaScript more than I ever wanted to already, and that's just doing client-side stuff. I use it any more and my brain will explode. - Chris, Taskerrific Guy
LOL! But you wouldn't have to "switch" back and forth that way, Chris... It's all one happy language. - Lindsay
I'd much rather be able to do my server-side scripting in C#, or maybe Perl. (Seriously, Perl in the browser, how awesome would that be? :) - Chris, Taskerrific Guy
C# looks more and more like Javascript with every release anyway... we've got chaining and stuff now... It's much easier to flip back and forth for me with C# than other options. - Lindsay
had a lot of fighting to get in working with WAMP and failed :( Looks promising but needs some better documentation and the forums are locked so no help available either :( I really want this to work, I am currently using phpQuery to do stuff clientside (along with my PHP based CMS) and would love to switch to JS and jQuery. - Dave Pook
