Preloading a webpage image is not an easy feat. Some don’t look good, others don’t really work. QueryLoader is a very quick and easy way to pre load images for your website.
You can download QueryLoader from http://www.gayadesign.com/diy/queryloader-preload-your-website-in-style/. The code is incredibly simple. All you have to do is include the plugin and then place the following line of code at the end of your page:
QueryLoader.init();
With the popularity of the iPhone, many plugins exist to replicate the functionality of the iPhone operating system.
Today I will talk about a plugin I stumbled upon. It replaces all checkboxes with a checkbox that is styled to match the iPhone.
I have put together a very basic demo of this plugin. You may view it here.

One of the features of this blog will be what I am calling “Plug-In Spotlights”. In a Plug-In Spotlight I will discuss a plug-in I have come across that is note worthy for either its usefulness or how cool it is. If it is a simple plug-in or one that I find to be extra valuable I will provide my own tutorial about how to use the plug-in on your site.
Most of these posts will be relatively short but will be valuable to know about. You never know when you will need that one obscure feature. I plan on releasing the first spotlight this Friday so check back then.
