Jquery up your Backend
I have a content management system I developed a little while back. When I first made it I was extremely pleased with the results, it had some shiny new features not seen that widely on the web, let alone in the back end management tool, things such as drag and drop, pop up fading alert boxes, save via ajax etc.
To achieve these things I did what I always have, I wrote the code from scratch. This involved hours of head-scratching, cross browser compatibility testing, scouring the web for fixes to mind bending browser ‘quirks’, if you have ever done any JavaScript development, you will know exactly what I mean.
