It works with Array types. The example is a simple list of numbers, but the array could contain anything; lists of strings, functions, DOM nodes, whatever. Unfortunately, a lot of things that seem like arrays in the DOM aren't really, so you can't shuffle the images on a page with just document.images.shuffle() all by itself.

I had searched high and low for a way to generate a palette of web-safe colors. Despite Google's best efforts, what I had found was lacking for my needs. So, I decided to write a library that would generate all 216 web safe colors, and then allow me to manipulate those colors in any way that I chose.

If anybody is curious as to why I would want to do something so... simple, it is because I needed a very light-weight color picker, and didn't want to mess with any fancy options.

Very easy to use and understand, hope you will find it useful and easily edit it to fit your needs.

This script performs reliable, cross-browser input autofocus that often can be used simply by dropping it in, with no modifications to the form or HTML body. It refuses to switch focus if it detects that the user has interacted with the form (avoiding a major source of annoyance with autofocus scripts) and correctly handles Firefox tabs opened "in the background", which most autofocus scripts fail on.

A wrapper on top of createElement for getting around IE problems with manipulating the name attribute. Unlike most solutions for this, it tests for which method to use once when the page loads rather than every time an element is created. By Chaos of Lost Souls MUD (a text-based fantasy RPG).

This script will allow for conditional loading of javascript libraries. The example here only has one condition to check for IE or Firefox then loads the appropriate .js file.

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
