Packing Javascript, Dean-Edwards-style?
I've been looking at the results of Javascript optimization in Drupal 6 and it appears to me to be not all that optimized. It should really just be called Javascript "concatenation" as it doesn't appear that comments or white space is removed.
I'm guessing that there were problems with double-packing of jquery.js.. Can anyone point me to the thread where this was discussed?

Hi,
I'm interested in taking a part as a student in GSoC 2008. So, here's my idea.
Drupal came with jQuery as its default javascript library. For some user, who uses another javascript library outside jQuery (such as mootools, prototype etc.), this thing often causes any trouble because their script always conflicting with jQuery.
So, i would like to develop a module which is allow user to:
<

Read moreJSON Server and Facebook
I am currently using Flex to consume an amfphp service, and it works great. However, when you try to use the swf on a Facebook profile, you have to click on an image first in order to load the swf.
My thought was to use the JSON server to return JSON to my facebook app. However, I get hit with the cross domain security issue. Has anyone here successfully accessed the JSON Server from a remote domain?

Read moreImproving Drupal's page loading performance
This article I wrote should appeal to people interested in high performance Drupal sites. Most of the performance gains are achieved by doing things with the Javascript and Drupal's File API.

You can expect another article soon, about the same topic, but then putting it to practice. I'll use the CDN integration module (of which I'm also the maintainer) and the included core patches to do it in just a few simple steps.
Read morejQuery / JS ninja wanted for collaboration
It's that time. Time to start porting MySite to Drupal 6. It will take some effort, since I will be refactoring some code and doing an API cleanup to more closely integrate with Panels.
One of the coolest features in MySite is the ability to drag-and-drop elements around the page. Problem is, the feature is a little buggy and relies on the jQuery Interface project. Based on some recent discussion, I think a Drupal-specific solution might be best.
Read moreThe Google AJAX Feed API for use with FeedAPI module
Has anybody bothered to take a look at the Google Ajax Feed API with the intention of using it for Drupal aggregation?
We've implemented client side aggregation for a project being released soon. This gives a similar experience to NetVibes.
Read moreInline search
I plan to make an inline search module for D6. Basically it would provide a UI for various pages such as permissions, modules, menu, and other core ( and well supported module pages ) to provide a very fast way to narrow down the page content to find what you want.
Read moreJavaScript errors with Google Gadgets
Over on the MySite project we're having a recurring issue with handling the JavaScript for Google Gadgets on our pages. It looks as though there is a problem with the order in which the JS are executed -- but that's really a guess on my part.
Sometimes, Flash embeds don't fully load: http://drupal.org/files/issues/gadgets.png
Sometimes, the JS loads the same element repeatedly: http://drupal.org/files/issues/GoogleWidgetScreenshot.png
Expert 'scripters exploring the issue would be much appreciated.
Read moreMake iframe resizable (like textarea) with JQuery
Hi,
I wonder how hard it would be to make an iframe resizable, much like textareas are resizable in Drupal (with the textarea.js).
The reason i ask this, is because i have created a module to integrate the "Whizzywig" WYSIWYG editor into Drupal (see http://drupal.org/project/whizzywig).
This editor replaces the textarea with an iframe to allow WYSIWYG editing.
