Widgets
Dragtable - A jQuery UI Widget to re-arrange Table Columns via Drag & Drop
Being able to re-order table columns has been something that I have always wanted to do. Because of a tables' markup you can't just use the jQuery UI sortables widget. After seeing akottr's dragtable plugin I was inspired to create a jQuery UI widget similar to his plugin. I set out with a few design goals; Flexible API, very responsive column drag(works with well with tables that have +1000 cells) and a easy to customize css framework.
ShortScroll - A jQuery UI Google Wave style scroll bar
I have never been a fan of custom scroll bars. Most of the time they are just eye candy and end up getting in the way. That was until I saw the scroll bar in Google Wave. I thought it was the best UI feature in the whole app. It added functionality and style making much better than the browser default scroll bar. So I thought that I would create a scroll bar like it as a jQuery UI widget.
