This is an open source 3D album component for Flex which is similar to the Cooliris‘s (formerly PicLens) attractive interface.
The component is inspired from the 3D album tutorial of Bartek Drozdz.

ProtoForm is a "very easy to implement’, lightweight (4kb) & unobtrusive form validation & Ajaxed submit solution that depends on Prototype.
Parameters are mentioned within the attributes like:
<input type="text" id="name_Req" name="name" title="Required! Try again" />
This makes it very easy to implement (a negative point can be requirement to define the ids in a specific way).
ProtoForm also sends data and shows response with Ajax, highlights the form field on focus and on error.
jParallax is a jQuery plugin which enables you to create Parallax effects.
This effect simply moves layers in response to the mouse, and, depending on their dimensions (and options for layer initialisation), they move by different amounts & create a depth.
Info: If you’re new to parallax effects, check the demo to see it (Parallax in Wikipedia).
jParallax simply provides the necessary options for creating the animation like layer controlling, positioning & timing.

While creating a filebrowser for a project, I have tried several JavaScript tree menus and found this one the easiest to work with.
dTree is an easy to setup & use classic JavaScript tree menu.
With a XHTML 1.0 strict validated output, this tree menu supports unlimited number of levels and remembers the state between pages.
The items don’t need to be in an order within the code as you can re-order them. This is a functional feature when creating the menu from a database.
The script is well-documented and this example shows how flexible it is.
Opentape, inspired from Muxtape, is an open source application that enables you to create & host your own mixtape.
You can upload songs, reorder-rename them & customize the look with an Ajaxed admin panel.
The application has a nice-looking embeddable Flash mp3 player (JW Player) that makes it possible to play your music on any website.

This tooltip script is also lightweight & accepts HTML to be displayed.
UniTip uses transparent PNG’s for creating the tootip balloon. And, for better compatibility with IE6, Unit PNG fix is already included with the package.
The script does not rely on any JavaScript frameworks & can be applied to specific tags or classes.
