In this post I will list some well known and widely used jQuery plugins and extensions. Actually I want to maintain this list with “required” stuff to build sites using jQuery framework. I can’t and don’t want to hold here full list of plugins (actually it is already available on jQuery plugins page) - instead I want to list “common” plugins that I and other developers / designers use on most of web sites. Please let me know if you use some cool plugin that you use all the time and I forget to list here.
- jQuery UI – “provides abstractions for low-level interaction and animation, advanced effects and high-level, themeable widgets”
- Form Plugin – “allows you to easily and unobtrusively upgrade HTML forms to use AJAX”
- Metadata Plugin – “extracting metadata from classes, random attributes, child elements and HTML5 data-* attributes”
- Validation Plugin
- Dimensions Plugin – “Extends jQuery to provide dimension-centric methods for getting widths, heights, offsets and more”
- Bgiframe Plugin - “Fixes z-index issues in IE6″
- Watermark Plugin – watermark capability to HTML input and textarea elements
- jReject Plugin – “jReject provides a simple, robjust, light-weight way to display rejections based on a the browser, specific browser version, specific platforms, or rendering engine”
to be continue…
