Tutorialzine

I've been meaning to implement this one for some time: http://tutorialzine.com/2011/02/converting-jquery-code-plugin/

It also allows images and degrades to pure select elements if necessary.

It doesn't allow for keyboard navigation (which is nice) but are there other benefits of DropKick that I'm overlooking in my quick glance?

The reason I haven't updated my select elements to these is because there are several cases on my site that a select will appear or disappear when the user engages with other parts of the site and the above code doesn't check for the visible state of the parent element. Any chance that's in your pipeline? I think it would make it more usable for modern sites (But maybe I'm the only one who frequently hides/shows select elements?).

Other than that, I like this. Thanks for putting it out there.

Instead of trying to do it all at once you might want to take it in chunks.

I would start on the front end and

I would start with looking into Bootstrap and jquery. And look at using PHP to deliver the webservice data to jquery.

------

I would also google some MVC PHP tutorals to get some idea of how MVC works since alot of modern frameworks are modeled after it.

----

next pick a javascript framework to make a SPA
here's some tutorials(middle of the page) on using angularjs with php: http://www.angularcode.com/

-----------

now your ready to swap out php for another server technology. nodejs, RoR, whatever.

There's also: yearofmoo [0], the AngularJSLearning Index [1], David Mosher [2], tutorialzine [3], and the ng-newsletter. [4] I would like to see the Integration With Other Languages/Frameworks section expanded (D3, PouchDB, etc). Are you guys planning on expanding on that?
