jQuery Star Rating Plugin v2.61 (2009-01-23) What is this? The Star Rating Plugin is a plugin for the jQuery Javascript library that creates a non-obstrusive star rating control based on a set of radio input boxes. What does it do? It turns a collection of radio boxes into a neat star-rating control. It creates the interface based on standard form elements, which means the basic functionality will still be available even if Javascript is disabled. NEW (18-Feb-2013): Compatible with jQuery 1.3+ and the latest 1.9! How do I use it? Just add the star class to your radio boxes Use the checked property to specify the initial/default value of the control Use the disabled property to use a control for display purposes only What about split stars and 'half ratings'???
Use metadata plugin to pass advanced settings to the plugin via the class property. Use custom selector Make sure to upload these changes on to your server, this would be a great plugin for your blogs and review sites NEW to v3 API methods can be invoked this this: Database Integration.

When it comes to lightweight client-side communication, I’ve noticed that many of you prefer ASP.NET AJAX’s page methods to full ASMX web services. In fact, page methods came up in the very first comment on my article about using jQuery to consume ASMX web services.
Given their popularity, I’d like to give them their due attention. In this post, I will clarify exactly what is and isn’t necessary in order to use page methods. Creating a page method for testing purposes. Writing a page method is easy. Putting it all together. Conclusion. Why ASP.NET AJAX UpdatePanels are dangerous. If you’re like me, it’s hard to resist the lure of tossing a half dozen UpdatePanels on every page and reveling in AJAX goodness. The UpdatePanel makes AJAX trivially easy for anyone to implement, even without knowledge of what’s actually going on behind the scenes. Unfortunately, that very lack of transparency regarding the mechanics of the client/server exchange makes it all too easy to shoot yourself (or your application) in the foot. Let me give you an example that you’re probably familiar with by now, and thoroughly sick of seeing: protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){ Label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString();} Simple enough.
Button1 is clicked, an asynchronous request is made for the current date/time, and that is displayed as Label1′s content. As simple as it sounds, take a look at the actual HTTP post and response necessary to accomplish the partial postback: Shocking, isn’t it? Page Methods. 50+ Amazing Jquery Examples- Part1 | Noupe.

With jQuery, you can get to just about anything on a web page. In this entry, I’ll show you a few ways you can use jQuery’s versatile selector expressions to traverse to an element — or group of elements — in the DOM. I’ve put together a short paragraph and an ordered list scattered with inline elements such as <em>, <code>, and links.
It’s all wrapped in a DIV with an ID of “jqdt,” which allows me to focus the demonstration to one area of this page. Each button below the “jqdt” DIV will toggle a yellow background on and off for the parts of the DIV described. This is a paragraph of text with class=”goofy.” List item 1 with dummy link to silly.pdf list item 2 with class=”goofy“ list item 3 SURPRISE! $('li:eq(0)') gets the first list item $('li:even') gets all odd-numbered list items (because, in javascript, numbering starts with 0, not 1).
jQuery’s selector expressions cover the full range of CSS 1-3, along with basic XPath and a few jQuery-only expressions.
