When using FireBug to step through your JavaScript code in FireFox, sometimes it does not break on a line that you know is being executed. If you are like me you are like WTF, what is going on? I eventually realized that the reason FireBug was not breaking on some lines of my […]

Often you wish to use setTimeout to call a function in the objects you are creating with MooTools or perhaps even more often you would like to pass parameters into your set time out calls. Well, the MooTools framework has given us a plethora of tools to do all of this and more. […]

Some times you have an error inside a loop that can be a real pain to get to. You certainly don’t want to put a breakpoint inside a loop and hit F10 a few thousand times until you get to the error condition. In this article, I would like to talk about a […]

In this article I would like to cover some of the basics of using Firebug to debug JavaScript in Firefox. If you do not have Firefox or the latest version I suggest you download

In my last post I talked about the differences between IE and Firefox when creating dynamic tables with the Document Object Model. Thanks to chatdor’s comment to my “Dynamic Tables In JavaScript for IE and Firefox” post, I realized that I was not paying attention to the full DOM. Perhaps many of us, like […]

Edit : After reading chatdor’s comment I realized that I was consentrating so much on the Element that I was not seeing the whole DOM. See my new post on the DOM, for a better sample for creating table elements in JavaScript.

Recently I had the “pleasure” of dynamic creating some tables in JavaScript. […]

I have made a couple of small updates to the JavaScript Color Picker and the Color Picker project page today.

I fixed a bug with IE and dynamically created tables using the DOM method. Fixed a few layout issues I came across and added the showColorInfo Option. I also updated the example pages so […]

I have done some debugging of the color picker in Opera. There were problems with many of the Canvas functions needed in Opera 9.0, but things work beautifully in Opera 9.1.

I have also done some testing with Firefox 1.5 and Safari. Things do not work at all well in FireFox 1.5 as it […]

Welcome to the final installation of my JavaScript based Color Picker series. I have made a lot of changes to the color picker since my last installment.

Layout
I found some major problems based on the document type with the way I was laying out elements in the color picker dialog, so I decided that […]

With the previous implementation of the Color Picker I used div elements to make the individual “pixels” of the color picker, attaching an event to each div element. This incurs quite a bit of overhead, causing the color picker to perform poorly especially on slower systems. The most obvious way to create something […]
