An idea from the CodeIgniter user guide used the Scriptaculous “blind” effect to show/hide the table of contents for the guide. By the strange force that is fate, I came across the Rico Accordion effect on the same day. Both of those came the day before I had to decide how to implement the […]
Awesome idea from William Beh at Lotus Notes on Web 2.0, where he used the Rico/Scriptaculous Accordian effect on Domino web categorized views.

I use MSN search sometimes to supplement other searches since I know their methods are different, but I was curious as to why Mike had such bizarre results. The reason: […]
Third-party tools, exports to Excel, SVG, VML, and Java applets; these are the tools for the Domino developer who wants to create charts from their Lotus Notes\Domino applications.
