jQuery Autofill City & State from Zip Code with Ziptastic

jQuery Autofill City & State from Zip Code with Ziptastic

Most address fields on web forms ask for city, state, and zip code (or city and post code, outside of the US). But as us nerds often lament, city and state are redundant with zip code. Or at least they can be inferred from a correctly entered zip code. That’s the kind of thing computers are good at. What we need is a proper API to cough up that information for us on demand

We’re going to watch the zip input for keystrokes. Should the final value after a keystroke be a valid zipcode, we’ll attempt to get the city and state through Ziptastic and reveal the other fields.

Flux Slider : jQuery CSS3 Animation based image transitions

Flux Slider : jQuery CSS3 Animation based image transitions

Flux slider is a CSS3 animation based image transition framework, inspired in part by the fantastic Nivo Slider jQuery plugin.

Instead of the traditional Javascript timer based animations used by jQuery, Flux utilises the newer, more powerful CSS3 animation technology. Its in a fairly early/rough state at the moment but testing on the iPhone/iPad does appear to produce much smoother animations. Desktop performance (as with Nivo) is very smooth but the use of CSS3 enables us to produce some new effects that Nivo can’t, e.g. rotations.

The aim is to use hardware acceleration where possible to improve performance on less powerful devices, such as mobiles & tablets.
