Nowadays most developers already know how to quickly code a menu or a layout structure, but there’re always a great difficulty when coding a form, either contact, login, newsletter, comment etc.
Formee is nothing but a framework to help you develop and customize web based forms. works with the technique provided by Fluid 960 Grid System to compose the form’s layout, allowing total flexibility to put it in any website or web system.
The form has a structure built around percentage widths, thus allowing its inclusion in any project, adapting to the space available. Formee has its structural code independent of the style codes, facilitating the complete customization and manteinance of the form.
The form was built with care to preserve web standards and their semantic values, working with the smallest possible amount of tags and according to the W3C rules.

jTicker takes an elements’ children and displays them one by one, in sequence, writing their text ‘ticker tape’ style. It is smart enough to ticker text from an element heirarchy, inserting elements back into the DOM tree as it needs them. That means almost any content can be ‘tickered’.
jTicker handles any number of alternating cursors (or just one). jTicker’s cursor container is styleable using the class .cursor, or can be defined as your own jQuery object. jTicker reacts to jQuery events “play”, “stop” and “control”.
Requirements: jQuery Framework

Mercury Editor is a fully featured editor much like TinyMCE or CKEditor, but with a different usage paradigm. It expects that an entire page is something that can be editable, and allows different types of editable regions to be specified.
It displays a single toolbar for every region on the page, and uses the HTML5 contentEditable features on block elements, instead of iframes, which allows for CSS to be applied in ways that most other editors can’t handle. Mercury has been written using CoffeeScript and jQuery for the Javascript portions, and is written on top of Rails 3.1.
Requirements: Chrome 10+, Safari 5+, Firefox 4+
