Adds any character at the given index of a string.

NOTE: Count starts from 0

This simple function simply removes the character at the given index from a string.

This snippet allows an aspx page (c#) to accept URL parameters to allow styles or script to be dynamically appended to the rendered page.

I wrote this simple snippet to allow one of our vendors to accept a style override so that their application would morph into something more closely resembling our own portal application. Please see screenshots for clarification.

I found this to be a neat little trick for hiding(somewhat) source javacscript code from peering eyes...

This function will unload all linked javascript files so that when you view source - you see no javascript files! (Especially helpful when using FF and using web-developer tools - no linked js files are displayed) The files remain resident in memory - allowing for the functions to work.

Just call the function in the tag

Just confirms if the user really wants to save the page or just hit the Ctrl+S accidentally. Works in FF maybe in IE too.

This creates a black screen if the browser is inactive for a certain amout of time. I am not sure if it works in IE too but works fine in Firefox.

This is a brief revision to my previous snippet. It is still what it was: a small, simple system for using XMLHttpRequest without using globals.

I'll put the API spec in the code this time, so as not to clutter the front page further.

Changes:

Changed name to HTTPRequest (far more accurate)
Added HEAD requests
Shortened code by making a GenericRequest function
Used a better method for getting an XMLHttpRequest object (checks multiple MS versions and implements the latest one)

This is a simple script to provide basic cross-platform XML request functionality in Javascript. It's meant to be the core component in any AJAX style framework. It is not an instantiable object, but instead is a namespaced microlibrary.

Calling is easy:
XMLRequest.GET(uri, query, callback, fallback)
uri: The location you're after
query: an associative array of form data to provide via the URL
callback: callback function of the form myCallbackFunction(objXMLHttpRequest), which is called upon successful (response = 200 OK) retrieval of the XML data
fallback: myFallbackFunction(objXMLHttpRequest), which is called upon failed (response != 200 OK) retrieval of the XML data.

XMLRequest.POST(uri, query, form, callback, fallback)
Similar, but does the query using the POST method. 'query' is the URL-appended data, still in associative array form, and 'form' is the same for the POST data.

This code is used in an Educational Portal product but can be tweaked to fit your need.

This code adds a small icon next to the title of a 'portlet' that resides on the page. By clicking the portlet title, the portlet usually maximizes within the constraint of the portal template - but the extra icon allows for the portlet to be opened in it's own window.

This simulates an MDI interface.
