Klaatu, Barada and Nikto were also creatures on Jabba’s sail barge in Return of the Jedi – a subtle nod from George Lucas to a great sci-fi film.

I know… I ooze geek!

Hey, i was just showing this page to a colleague from work and he didn’t know where the term “Klaatu Brada Nikto” came from (no, not army of darkness). Am I the only “old-timer who remember the movie?

Cool! I really like the floating title and checkbox. I am not much a coder though, so I’m sure I’ll have “fun” trying to implement it

Yup, another fine collection. Like to bottom set of on and off buttons, very stylish.

One of my fav’s but I know its quite popular is the Java LightBox script for displaying images in a semi transparent overlay over the entire screen, that sort of grows outward.

Have added this to my site, for some of my photograph categories. I really like it, its not immediately obvious either until your click the image, nice and subtle.

Also the various JQuery tabbed box menus you can get, too many to mention, but they all serve a useful purpose to tidy up your front end.

JQuery is one technology that I am really excited about learning, seems to damn cool.

This is a great list of effects! I’ve used JCarousel in the past.

I would like to add Adobe’s Spry framework for Ajax to this list:

I’ve been experimenting with it lately and have found it to be a great option for a variety of my needs due to its ease of development as well as its variety of pre-built widgets. One of my personal favorites is the Spy Accordion Widget:

Like many widgets, creating a collection of elements on your page (divs in this case), giving them the appropriate id’s or classes, and calling your JavaScript function transforms your html into an accordion menu. Not only is it simple to implement, it degrades incredibly well.
