Below is the example of INNER JOIN between table Customer and Member:

SELECT customer.name, member.name

FROM customer INNER JOIN member

     ON customer.member_id = member.id

Here is the magic of using WHERE syntax:

SELECT customer.name, member.name

FROM customer, member

WHERE customer.member_id = member.id

Though the syntax doesn't look shorter enough, but it will be very handy for some SQL statement that joins a lot of tables.

This trick works fine with MySQL and HSQLDB. I haven't tried on another engine yet.

Tell me if i made a mistake. thanks

Selectors I used:

• p:nth-child(even)
• p:nth-child(n)[class] > a
• p:nth-child(even)
• p:nth-child(n)[class] > a
• p:nth-child(even)
• p:nth-child(n)[class] > a
• p:nth-child(even)
• p:nth-child(n)[class] > a
• p:nth-child(even)
• p:nth-child(n)[class] > a

JavaScript Frameworks I used:

• jQuery 1.2.6
• jQuery 1.3.2
• Dojo 1.2.3
• MooTools 1.2.1

Here is a piece of sample code of PHP's encryption function: base64_encode():

function base64_encode( data ) {

    var b64 = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/=";

    var o1, o2, o3, h1, h2, h3, h4, bits, i = ac = 0, enc="", tmp_arr = [];

    data = utf8_encode(data);

    do {

        o1 = data.charCodeAt(i++);

        o2 = data.charCodeAt(i++);

        o3 = data.charCodeAt(i++);

        bits = o1<<16 | o2<<8 | o3;

        h1 = bits>>18 & 0x3f;

        h2 = bits>>12 & 0x3f;

        h3 = bits>>6 & 0x3f;

        h4 = bits & 0x3f;

        tmp_arr[ac++] = b64.charAt(h1) + b64.charAt(h2) + b64.charAt(h3) + b64.charAt(h4);

    } while (i < data.length);

    enc = tmp_arr.join('');

    switch( data.length % 3 ){

    case 1:

        enc = enc.slice(0, -2) + '==';

    break;

    case 2:

        enc = enc.slice(0, -1) + '=';

    break;

    }

    return enc;

}

The library is available in 2 different packages:

• Namespaced (min/packed)- all functions are contained in one object; and
• Normal (min/packed)- just a collection of standalone functions.

New features on 1.3 are:

• Replaced old CSS selector engine with Sizzle, a standalone framework which is developed by John Resig and donated to the Dojo Foundation.
• A new event API, Live Events, that can binds event to the future DOM elements.

Rewritten features are:

• Standardized jQuery Event according to W3C standards and makes it work smoothly across all browsers.
• Rewritten HTML Injection, and it's 6x faster than before.
• Rewritten .offset() from scratch, and it's 3x faster than before.
• Deprecated browser sniffing API, replaced by a new technique called 'feature detection' that simulate a particular browser feature or bug to verify its existence. This feature detection is encapsulated into a new object, jQuery.support.

The release note of this version can be read at here.

Trivia:

Version file size comparison:

At first, I thought that Switch was just only for 'equal' comparison. But actually it is more than just equal. So I did a search, and I found there is a way that can code Switch just like If. Well, I'm lazy to explain, so let's see the following sample codes of getting Grade from Score:

If statement:

$score=78;

if ($score>=85): echo "Grade A";

elseif ($score>=70): echo "Grade B";

elseif ($score>=55): echo "Grade C";

elseif ($score>=40): echo "Grade D";

else: echo "Grade E";

endif;

Switch statement:

$score=78;

switch(true) {

  case $score>=85: echo "Grade A"; break;

  case $score>=70: echo "Grade B"; break;

  case $score>=55: echo "Grade C"; break;

  case $score>=40: echo "Grade D"; break;

  default: echo "Grade E";

}

Both code produces same result, that is "Grade B".
