My Portal Project

Jack Slocum is fast approaching deity status with this last project. He has created a YUI extension library for some kick-butt Web 2.0 layouts. The toolkit allows you to create collapsible sections, multiple (even nested) splitter bars, even automatic content tabs when you place two divs on top of each other. This library allows even a Javascript hack like myself to create browser applications that behave and look like more advanced thick desktop applications. I have already made use of Jack’s grid extension, and everyone who sees my animated help tutorials, using Jack’s animation extension, make comments to the effect that this is not your typical “web app”. Hat’s off to Jack for making us all look good at work!!
