We have introduced jQuery iPhone-like Password Fields few months ago. Now, we have a similar iPhone Style Passing Masking using Mootools – PassShark. It is a free and easy-to-implement password masking class, which has been on tested on Safari 3+, Firefox 3+, Opera 10+, IE 6 and 7.
The goal with delayed password masking, is to help the user through a less painful way of populating forms and specifically password fields. This methodology is fast becoming popular on Mobile Devices, Desktop applications and the Web browser alike.

Tutorialzine has just showed us how to make an Advanced Event Timeline with the help of PHP, MySQL, CSS & jQuery, that will display a pretty time line with clickable events. Adding new events is as easy as inserting a row in the database.
The main idea is that we have two divs – timelineLimiter and timelineScroll positioned inside it. The former takes the width of the screen, and the latter is expanded to fit all the event sections that are inserted inside it. This way only a part of the larger inner div is visible and the rest can be scrolled to the left and right by a jQuery slider.
Now you can create a sleek event timeline that you can modify to showcase the important events that mark your days. It is easily modifiable and you are free to use it in your or your clients’ projects.

Requirements: PHP, CSS and jQuery Framework

As web developers, we spend precious time laying out our pages, using every UI concept in the book to conserve space, while trying to maintain a user’s focus on the task at hand. There are many techniques to use Lightbox, Carousel and Tabs to name a few – and recently Scott Robbin has offered up another: jQuery pageSlide.
jQuery pageSlide was inspired by the UI work of Aza Raskin. Aza introduced the idea of sliding content aside to reveal a secondary content pane. This plugin allows any developer to recreate a similar interaction on their own website using a few simple lines of Javascript.
By attaching the method to an anchor tag, pageSlide wraps the original body content into a wrapper and creates an additional block for the secondary content load. The slide is animated whenever the click event is invoked.

New York Times online had an article which showed a road in Brooklyn that had been reconstructed to make it safer and more pleasing to the eye. To show the difference in the reconstruction project, they showed a before and after picture using Flash that let the visitor drag a slider over the images, which were sandwiched with one on top of the other, so that you could easily see how dramatic the changes were.
CatchMyFame found this very useful and immediately created Before/After jQuery Plugin for the same purpose. The possibilities for this plugin are endless. Doctors can have before and after images of patients, Photoshop users can show the before and after differences between images, remodelers can show the before and after images of projects and on and on. This plugin weighs in at only 7K and can be used multiple times on a page.
