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.
