JavaScript Minifier that doesn't break code (in Perl)
JavaScript Template Libraries

<script language="javascript">
    var data = {people:[{first:'Fred', last:'Flintstone'},
                        {first:'Barney', last:'Rubble'}]};
</script>
The templates that convert this data into bits of HTML are commonly stored in hidden elements in the page.

<textarea id="people_jst" style="display:none;">
  {for p in people}
    <li>{p.first} {p.last}</li>
  {/for}
</textarea>

<script language="javascript">
    var result = TrimPath.processDOMTemplate("people_jst", data);
    document.getElementById('list').innerHTML = result;
</script>
