OpenJS Grid – Instant & Customizable Datagrid

Advertise here with BSA


OpenJS Grid is a very easy-to-setup solution for displaying records as a user-friendly datagrid.

It comes as a plugin for jQuery with the PHP files for handling the Ajax requests and can be called with a simple/one-line function.

The data to be shown on the initial load can be limited to a desired number, rest of the records can be browsed with pagination and every column can be sorted.

OpenJS Grid

And, there are many options like:

  • showing/hiding row numbers
  • inline editing
  • deletion of records
  • filtering records with date range

There are callbacks on every step (rowClick, loadComplete, saveFail, etc.) and the design of the grid can be totally changed with CSS3-powered theming support.

CSS-Like Selectors For JSON – JSONSelect

Advertise here with BSA


Accessing JSON data can get complicated if you are not using a library/class (for JS or the server-side language used) which makes working with that data type easier.

JSONSelect is a JavaScript library that simplifies reaching JSON data with CSS-like selectors.

JSONSelect

Besides standard hierarchical selectors like ".objectName .objectName2", there is support for :first-child or :nth-child as well and you can quickly target any part or all of the dataset.

The library is still under heavy development, more features are expected to be added, however, it is already pretty powerful and functional.

CSS Sprite Generator – Spritemapper

Advertise here with BSA


CSS sprites are great for minimizing the number of requests made for loading images, however, the design and coding part can be painful if there are too many images.

Spritemapper is a tool for easing this process by merging multiple images into a single one and creating the CSS positioning rules for each slice.

The tool is a simple command-line tool that performs the job via a Python package including its own PNG and CSS parser (without any 3rd-party dependencies).

Humans.txt – Let The Users Know Who Built That Website

Advertise here with BSA


We all know robots.txt, the text file that is uploaded to the root folder of websites and helps us communicate with the search engine bots for telling them which pages to not to index.

What if we want to communicate with humans and tell them who built the website? There is usually not a suitable space for this in websites and visitors may not be interested in seeing such an information inside "about" pages (in most cases).

Humans.txt

This is where Humans.txt, which is an initiative for knowing the people behind a website, comes in.

Just like robots.txt, you upload a humans.txt file to the root folder of the website and can mention every detail that "careful eyes" would be interested in learning about the team behind, the designers, developers, copywriters, etc.

It won't be wrong to expect it getting popular as some big guys like Google or Flickr already have it. And, WRD has it too : ).
