A Javascript based ‘CoverFlow’ effect - SideFlow 1.1 by MediaEvent Services

April 4th, 2008 Jay Garcia

SideFlow, created by MediaEvent Services is a pretty radical way of providing a ‘CoverFlow’ effect with pure Javascript.  I’ll be honest, I am disappointed with the speed, but expected it to perform the way it is.  I mean it is javascript.    I still have to say that it’s very impressive.

According to the blog article, it uses  the Tigra Slider control, Scriptaculous and Prototype

One way to get form panels in a window to work with data records or json easily

April 4th, 2008 Jay Garcia

Below is an example of how to get a formPanel to work inside of an Ext.Window really easily. Simply call the class’s .show() method with a json object or an instance of a Ext.Data.Record object and it will do the rest. I realize that this should have probably been done in a ‘module’ or ’singleton’ pattern but I wanted to exercise my use of classes and Ext.extend, etc. In fact, the class could have been blown out more to accept any instance of a form, etc, but I started to get crunched on time.
