jQuery: The Write Less, Do More JavaScript Library

Plugins

From jQuery JavaScript Library

Jump to: navigation, search
Note (18 June 2007): We have launched a new plugin repository at http://jquery.com/plugins/. If you are a plugin author, please add your plugins to the new database. We'd like to get as many of them added as possible within the next couple weeks.

These are plugins, developed and contributed by jQuery users. To use them with jQuery, simply include their source file after you include jQuery's and it should work instantly. If you're looking for some small code snippets you can use in your own pages, check out the Cookbook section as well.

Remember that this is a wiki page, so feel free to edit it if you change the link to one of your plugins. Or add your plugin or those from others that are worth mentioning.
