MiniAjax is a very nice collection of some great DHTML and Ajax scripts. It’s not a huge collection but the pieces available are bits that would be useful across a number of websites.

Just a few of the scripts include:

• Prototype Window which allows you to add a window in a HTML page.
• Ajax Star Rating Bar that allows users to rate things with no page refresh.
• A drop-in Ajax contact form that can be used in WordPress.
• Ajax powered IM system that sits right on your web site.
• Ajax domain search script

Like I said, a very nice collection with some helpful bits that you could use on various websites.

Koller Jürgen has given out a free download to easily create a CSS Tab Menu. (Take a look at the example image below)

You can set whether the tabs change on click or mouseover. The one thing I don’t like is that everything is in one file. I would personally put the CSS in an file and the javascript in a file. Of course Koller notes that you can do this as well.

There’s a lot of ways to achieve this type of menu, but this solution is a good one. Go give it a look.
