I wanted to make ‘Allow pings and comments’ default to OFF in Wordpress and couldn’t find the option so Google showed me a nice little time saver here - then I found these options somewhere in the Wordpress admin interface :P

Clearfix CSS Hack

Thanks to Jeff Starr for this

/* slightly enhanced, universal clearfix hack */
.clearfix:after {
     visibility: hidden;
     display: block;
     font-size: 0;
     content: " ";
     clear: both;
     height: 0;
     }
.clearfix { display: inline-block; }
/* start commented backslash hack \*/
* html .clearfix { height: 1%; }
.clearfix { display: block; }
/* close commented backslash hack */

jsTree

jQuery Draggable, Reorderable Tree - looks like it’s pretty much the best one around currently. Anyone know of a better one?

Fantastic Date Range Picker using jQuery UI

iPhone interface in modal windows?

@jquery

jQTouch - A jQuery plugin for mobile web development on the iPhone, Android, Palm Pre, and other devices. jqtouch.com

I actually quite like the idea of this working in modal windows for website preferences - one problem, it only works (properly) in webkit sigh It works wonderfully in Chrome :)
