PalmStudios Model Agency
Jul 14th
I would like to introduce you my last web project: http://www.palmstudios.com
For this project I have developed a sort of MVC (Model View Controller) over the RedBeanPHP DB library (PHP 5.3.2). This project even though it looks quite simple it has a very power CMS (Content Management System) on its backend that allows the model agency to control most of the aspects of its business:
- - Clients Management
- - Models Management (Men, Women, Children & Extras) -contact details, measurements, pictures, and so on…
- - Promotional Packages Management – this is a special addon which allows the agency to create model promotional bundles to send More >

Jun 15th
I would like to introduce you this simple but very efficient plugin that will help us speed up the downloading time of our web pages. I am talking about mr Mika Tuupola’s Lazy Load JQuery Plugin.
This plugin loads the images of a web page as the user scrolls to their position, that is, images wont load until they are not within the visible viewport margins of the window.
How to use
First we need to insert the following references into our code
<!-- insert a reference to jquery and the jquery.lazyload plugin --> <script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="jquery.lazyload.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Cookie jQuery Plugin
Jan 2nd
As published on my last post, JSON gives us the great possibility to save objects on Cookies. I have already created a JSON Plugin for jQuery, then, why not create one Cookie Plugin that, in conjunction with the JSON plugin, allows us to save objects on cookies? Well, the challenge was simple and I decided to do it for those using jQuery.
The codeRemember than this plugin works in conjunction with my JSON jQuery Plugin, also on this blog.
jQuery.cookie = {
set : function(name,value,options){
options = $.extend({}, options);
if (value === null) {
value = '';
options.expires = -1;

JSON jQuery Plugin
Dec 30th

As you all know jQuery do not have a JSON encode function. I truly do not know the reason why but to implement it was quite easy -maybe the guys from jQuery thought that it wasn’t really necessary and I agree with them. Most of us use JSON on the server side through PHP or whatever the server tech we More >
