Whitehouse uses Jquery.

Cool Stuff, javascript

Doing a view source on the new whitehouse.gov shows that they are using Jquery.  Just thought that was kinda cool.

Defaulting the cursor to the First input box on any page.

Cool Stuff, javascript

Here's a short and simple  javascript using Jquery to put the cursor in the first text box on a web page.  I added this to one of our sites to make sure the cursor starts in the different forms / search boxes on all the pages of our site.


<script>
  document.ready(function()){
   $("input[type='text']:first").select();
  };
</script>

It's using Jquery to find the FIRST :  INPUT tag with a TYPE="TEXT" on the page.  Then it selects it to move the cursor.

Persistent Storage for Amazon EC2

Cool Stuff

On the heals of GOOGLE Apps having persistent storage Amazon decides to add it as well. This was the only major issue I had with EC2 as I didn't "get" how it would all work with S3. It seems they are planning to add an unformatted harddrive that you can partition and format to your heart's desire. There will even be an API to backup the harddrive to S3.

This is a very exciting development, I can't wait to try it out.
