(JavaScript) Session variables without cookies

Tue, 13 May 2008 07:39:06 GMT

"I never liked the JavaScript implementation of cookies. The storage space is limited (4 x 20 Kb per domain), the only data format that can be used is a string and the syntax for setting and getting cookies is unnecessarily complicated. On top of that they get added to the browser request header - and since a lot of corporate firewalls only accept a rather limited request header length they might prevent your pages from loading at all. (I've seen it happen - it's ugly.) So I've made a small script that let you use JavaScript session variables without using cookies. It will let you store 2 MB of data, with much less hassle than a cookie based solution."

(JavaScript) Execute Event.observer inside other different event (with prototype)

Tue, 01 Aug 2006 04:02:02 GMT

I've found a very nice (and standard) solution to firing events while it's not normally available, this piece of code searchs the active element (a text input) inside the Event.observers collection and fires the "onchange" event (normally not possible in explorer) when the return key is pressed. - this code requires prototype.js - Hope you enjoy it!
