Since I discovered PHP, I don't do as much JavaScript work as I used to but when you need client-side validation or don't want to rely on a server for functionality, JavaScript is what you need.

Here's some JavaScripts I've written. As always, comments, bug-reports and feedback is always appreciated:

Menu Script - download (11K) - See the navigation menu to the left? That menu is generated through Javascript. Yes, I could use SSI and library objects (I use Dreamweaver to maintain this site) and such but I like to use Javascript. The best part about this script is that you change once, write everywhere - to add/delete/modify the menu you change the library, not every single friggin' page on your site. Takes seconds!

Date Script - download (4K) - See the date near the top-right of the page? That is generated through a Javascript I wrote. Originally I wrote it to generate a link to a website for their most current page but they changed their format. I cleaned it up, abstracted it a bit and present it here for you to use. I've got a bunch of ideas about improving it (listed in the script) but for now you'll have to settle for the ability to change the format.

Breadcrumbs Script - download (4K) - I like 'breadcrumbs' on websites, they are a great way of enhancing navigation. For example, a 'breadcrumb trail' for this page might look something like this:
    You are here: Home > Technology > Javascripts
I wrote this script for use on the LearnLink website a few years ago. Amazingly, they still use it even though the site has gone under a serious redesign.

Pull-Down Menu Script - download (3K) - You'll also want the library script (2k) that goes with it. I hesitated to even put this script up here - it's only a single line! But, it works nicely on my recipe page and I see potential for using this as an object in other scripts so here you go!
