Prototype

I've got my old version of CompiledTemplate online in a Pastie. It's got the source and a simple example. I need to finish my new version and do some benchmarking.

It actually isn't often useful since it is usually better to generate content on the server side.

Robert Penner created a suite of mathematically genius actionscript functions to simulate real-life movements in Flash. The results are compelling.

A few years back, I ported Robert Penner's equations to JavaScript for use with Scriptaculous transitions. Here is a little playground I set up to test them out. They are available for download there as well. Here is Rober Penner's original demo and Easing Equations page.

We see swinging, bouncing, and elastic movements in real life, and even a lot on Flash and even TV due to the work of Rober Penner.

Thomas Fuchs uses my custom bouncePast transition on his site!

Mouseover and mouseout events are not intuitive. I've made a mockup and demo of a very short snippet that addresses the problem.

The problem is that mouseout events are fired when moving into a child element and mouseover events are fired when moving from a child element. This behavior is confusing.

On a mouseover, the relatedTarget property references the node from which the pointer came. On a mouseout, the relatedTarget property references the node to which the pointer went. On any event, the scope is the node to which the event is attached. When the relatedTarget is a not child of the currentTarget, a mouseover event is equivalent to a mouseenter event and a mouseout event is equivalent to a mouseleave event.
