Using jQuery for a Simple Animated Fade Effect
I know I have already done a fade effect between two images with jQuery, but here is a quick little piece of code that will just add a nice animated fade effect to single images. Whenever a person hovers over an image, we will use jQuery to lower the opacity to make it appear lighter. Easy and not that impressive but still pretty cool.
Full Size Background Image jQuery Plugin
I guess I am on a jQuery plugin kick since it seems to be all I am doing lately. I just really dig how versatile the jQuery library is and all the amazing things you can do to a Web site with it. I had to create a resizing background image that would fit the full size of the browser window and this little plugin does just that.
Easy Overlay Modal Window jQuery Plugin
I developed the following jQuery plugin for the Design options admin panel of Magazine Premium. All it needed to do is display an example of all of the @font-face kits that are available with the theme. It is pretty simple and just fades in a centered modal window containing an image when you click on a link.
Creating a jQuery Plugin to Increase Font Size
I have been spending a bit of time lately figuring out how to create my own plugins for jQuery.

For this example, I will create a plugin to increase the font size of a selected div when a link is clicked.
Find the Category ID using the Category Slug in WordPress
This is a quick little piece of code that I have been using a lot lately. I needed to get the category ID but all I had to work with was the category slug. Luckily WordPress has a neat little function called get_term_by() which makes it super easy. The function can be used to get a lot more information but for this example I am just going to extract the ID.
