Get Latitude and Longitude with Google Maps V3
Jan 22nd
I would like to share with you a little piece of code that I find quite useful in my applications.

Here I will do my best to explain a step procedure on how to do that -once you know the procedure, it is easy to create plugins or whatever you wish to do.

SWFUpload_0_0. Error HTTP Status: 403 Solved
Jan 5th
SWFUpload is a client-side file upload tool originally developed by Vinterwebb.se. It uses a combination of Flash and JavaScript to provide file upload functionality beyond what the basic browser provides with the <input type=”file” /> tag.
The main features that SWFUpload provides are:
- The ability to select multiple files in the file browser dialog.
- AJAX-style uploading without a page refresh.
- Upload progress events.
- Namespaced classes compatible with other JavaScript libraries (i.e., jQuery, Prototype, etc.).
- Flash 9 and Flash 10 support. (Flash 8 support dropped in version 2.2.0)
SWFUpload is different from other Flash based upload tools because of the philosophy behind its design. SWFUpload gives developers control by More >
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;

Cookies on Roids -JSON Based
Jan 1st
Every Web programmer, one day or another, works with cookies. Some of us prefer to use server side cookies, others client cookies, and also both, client and server cookies. On my older blogspot blog, one that I even really care to update everyday as I do with this one, I post one class to work with cookies on the client side and one fellow programmer told me about json cookies. I thought it was a great script and that was because by using JSON (thanks David Crockford again!) encoding we could save objects and arrays of information into our good More >
JSON jQuery Plugin
Dec 30th
I finally got a bit of time and I started playing around with the creation of jQuery plugins and did created a couple of them that I believe all of you will find useful, one of them is a JSON plugin.
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 >
