PageAnnouncement.XML is a handy and lightweight ajax-driven website widget that displays announcement boxes on pages. Unlike most of the other widgets I provide, it does not come with predefined skins, but users can easily modify the looks of the announcement boxes via the various attributes exposed in the PageAnnouncement.XML/Announcements.xml file.

The free version of the script is fully functional and does not have any restrictions, and the only difference from the full version is a small credit message with a link to my website. If you wish to remove this message you may purchase the full version of the script for USD14.99.

When the “top center” value of the “background-position” CSS
property is used for a background image of an element that is an odd number
of pixels wide, Firefox 3 blurs the background image (No other browsers,
including Firefox 2 behave in such a manner).

TinySite.XML is a lightweight AJAX-driven and JavaScript-based CMS suitable for small websites. It uses a flat XML file for data storage and retrieval and provides almost codeless site development and maintenance, targetting even unexperienced users with a basic knowledge of HTML. The result is valid, semantic and accessible code with cool looks and killer loading speed.

The lite version of TinySite.XML comes with two predefined site layouts and a couple of skins, that can be modified using CSS. Along with the easy content management it provides, the lite version also comes with a set of components such as:

• Mailing List Form
• BlogRoll Panel
• Search Panel
• Voting Poll
• Freetext Panel
• Footer Panel

All these components are easily configurable as they are loaded from xml files. The good news is that they could be turned off and on from the website’s config file, so webmasters that do not need a particular component can simply exclude it from the page rendering.

Several on my scripts (RadioButton.XML, TabStrip.XML, AJAX Photo Gallery, Antipixel Buttons.XML 1.0 and Web 2.0 AJAX Loading Panel) are already available for download as setup executable files for easier deployment and usage. In the next days I will create setups for the rest. Happy coding!

I noticed an interesting issue with FireFox 3 and FireBug 1.2.0b3.

Certain sites using the XmlHttpRequest object, parse xml data or the scripts use the
Element.getAttribute() method throw a JavaScript error “Permission denied to
call method Element.getAttribute()“. This happens when FireBug is enabled.

If you disable FireBug (Tools > Add-ons > FireBug > Disable) and then
restart FireFox - the problem is gone.

I believe the FireBug guy is aware of this issue and will fix it soon, as
the latest FB is still in a beta version.

Test with FireFox 3 and FireBug 1.2.0b3 on / off this page: http://www.w3schools.com/Xml/tryit.asp?filename=tryxml_parsertest.

Rock on.

I spent the last few days in code refactoring and porting the website and the data source to the latest version of my JS CMS. Now it utilizes some of the coolest AJAX website widgets I have created - TabStrip.XML, RadioButton.XML, CheckBox.XML, AJAX Photo Gallery, Web 2.0 Loading Panel and Antipixel Buttons.XML. Also, I’ve implemented a brandnew AJAX rendering engine. I think the result is evident. Enjoy…

Finally RadioButton.XML 5.0 (formerly known as Skinnable Radiobuttons) is here! Almost two years after I’ve introduced it, here is an AJAX-driven, codeless solution that comes with 10 predefined skins, several client methods for adding, removing and disabling nodes, attaching custom click functions, wizard and other cool stuff!

TabStrip.XML is a lightweight, yet powerful AJAX-based script for creating tabbed interfaces for websites. It is easy to configure by simply adding a few lines of code and defining tabstrip placeholder (a <div>… </div>) element with an ID on the place where the tabstrip should be rendered.

TabStrip.XML comes with a set of 10 predefined skins – Acid, Blue, Classic, Default, Green, Mac, MSDN, WeMakeSites, Vista and WindowsXP, but users can easily create their own skins by modifying and existing skin or creating one from a scratch.

Apart from its multiple functionality, allowing users to disable certain tabs, to add custom click functions to the tab button, defining width to the tab buttons and even disabling the entire tabstrip, TabStrip.XML allows multiple instances on one page.
