Learning Ext JS
A week ago I was contacted by Packt Publishing to review their new book Learning Ext JS. Having worked with Ext JS a few times (Mainly whilst helping develop Fork CMS), I’ve only scraped the surface of the possibilities so far and therefore am looking forward to receiving the book in my mailbox. In the mean time – the book is expected to be delivered within three weeks – both you and me can read the sample chapter, covering layouts: 7. In an AJAX World, You Need a Good Layout.

What if you could extract all text strings from a PSD file into a TXT file? Sure, it’s possible, thanks to PS_BRAMUS.TextExport, the PSD2TXT script I wrote a few months ago. Now, what if you wanted to do that in the opposite direction and import strings from a TXT file into a PSD file (viz. TXT2PSD)? Look no further, PS_BRAMUS.TextConvert is here, and does both!
jQuery.serializeAnything : Serialize anything (and not just forms!)
Code snippet I found somewhere in my archive: jQuery.serializeAnything() is a jQuery Extension that serializes any element you specify, in contrast to jQuery’s builtin serialize() function which is limited to serializing form elements only.
