Tag jquery

Jannis Leidel has put together this useful blog post which shows how to use jQuery to provide autosuggest on your django-tagging fields in Django, in both the automatic Admin screens and in your own custom forms.

The only real downside I can see is that it sends the entire tag list with the initial request, so if you have hundreds or thousands of tags then it wouldn't be overly bandwidth-friendly. In those situations it should be relatively easy to modify this to use an XMLHttpRequest, though.

Nice work, Jannis!

Google are using their CDN to host a number of Javascript libraries (including jQuery, prototype, and others). This means that a browser should only have to download the code once, rather than once for each site they visit that uses it.

You can link directly to the .js files, or use a Google API call to always load the latest version of a library.

Two month ago we’ve presented the 50 favorite jQuery plugins many developers use and we promised that the second version will be coming soon. Today, we are going to introduce 45+ more jquery plugins that were recently created, so you don’t have to do the search as we did it and will continue to do it to build a useful library of jquery plugins and solution

A great little jquery plugin to draw rounded corners using the web browsers 'Canvas' functionality, including a Canvas implementation for IE. Very clean, non-jagged corners.

Live Query, previously called Behavior, utilizes the power of jQuery selectors by binding events or firing callbacks for matched elements auto-magically, even after the page has been loaded and the DOM updated. This means you can assign a function to a set of elements ("a" for example) and later, when you add more "a" elements they inherit those functions. Cool.
