New Projects Section

All of you JavaScript lovers out there who have been following this blog recently will probably know already that I recently released a jQuery plugin to add Publish/Subscribe functionality. The Announcement was posted just a few days ago. Well, I decided I can’t just leave the information about the plugin in a post that will fade into the ages of the archive, so I created a Projects page, which you can access via the link on the main navigation bar.

New jQuery Plugin: Publish/Subscribe

I recently started looking through Dojo because another blog writer seemed to highly recommend it while saying there’s no real need to use jQuery. Dojo seemed quite powerful, probably having DOM manipulation on par with jQuery, but only if you required the correct extra modules. Also the syntax for Dojo is far more verbose. Still it seemed like Dojo had something that jQuery didn’t, so I sought to find what jQuery was lacking. It turns out that the only thing that Dojo (excluding Dijit and it’s other separate libraries) had that jQuery didn’t was a publish/subscribe module.
