i am dustin diazEpisode 11: Top 10 JavaScript Functions Review
Now with better audio equipment, in this episode I paid a revisit to my Top Ten JavaScript Functions of all time entry from November of 2005 and did a complete analysis explaining the pros and cons of each function and what could be improved, and if, perhaps, there are better functions today as an alternative. Regardless, the functions were good for their time, but with JavaScript at the forefront of development, new ones are being reborn every day and are simply replacing the old.
In the News
Nothing really that special. Basically I'm going to London for the @media 2006 conference so I hope to see you there. And the other piece of news I discussed is the recent release of the latest YUI JavaScript frameworks, which by the way, now includes a CSS framework that allows you to create over 100 different page layouts with just one 1.8k css file. Pretty dope eh?
