More than just a simple XMLRPC system, performancing allows WYSIWYG, drag’n'drop from web pages, saving as note, etc… It is a very nice plugin, see following screen-shots : |

In a previous post I was talking about a list of Ajax indicator. Better than a list of indicator ajaxLoad generates indicator which can be downloaded : fun and usefull  |
More and more web application are build with same constraints as « heavy client ». We all want our application looks like an OS native application in a web browser.
A lot of cool framework allow developper to build such application. The problem now is the application loading. A very « heavy » application can take more than 1 or 2 seconds to be loaded and while application loads, end user don’t know if the application works or if it is down.
There is an alternative to this kind of problem : the splashScreen. This kind of feature could be implemented by dojo with the famous dojo.addOnLoad Method.
Here is a simple exemple showing how to make a splashScreen with Dojo :
function showApp() { dojo.byId("splash").style.display = "none"; dojo.lfx.fadeShow("real", 100); } dojo.addOnLoad(showApp); <div id="splash" style="position: absolute; top: 200px; width: 100%;z-index: 100;"> <div align=center> ... </div> </div> <div id="real" dojoType="LayoutContainer" style="opacity: 0.01;filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=1);"> ... </div>
In this exemple, we simply show in simple splash when page is shown and we remove it when all Dojo js has been executed (with a fade – just for fun) for showing the main application. It is very simple… let try it.

Ajax and Javascripts allow developpers to make more and more awasone things in a web browser. The last I found « exciting » is playing sound with very goog javascript APIs?. Take a look at Sound Manager 2 (Using backgrounded flash player to play sound) – Project Home page – , it is crazy what we now can do with Javascript You can see also:
