Objective-J - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Objective-J - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Objective-J is a programming language developed as part of the Cappuccino web development framework. Its syntax is nearly identical to the Objective-C syntax and it shares with JavaScript the same relationship that Objective-C has with the C programming language: that of being a strict, but small, superset; adding traditional inheritance and Smalltalk/Objective-C style dynamic dispatch. Pure JavaScript, being a prototype-based language, already has a notion of object orientation and inheritance, but Objective-J adds the use of class-based programming to JavaScript.

Programs written in Objective-J need to be preprocessed before being run by a web browser's JavaScript virtual machine. This step can occur in the web browser at runtime or by a compiler which translates Objective-J programs into pure JavaScript code. The Objective-J compiler is written in JavaScript, consequently deploying Objective-J programs does not require a plugin attached to the web browser.

Functions: Functions for external data

This new feature lets you get information from filetypes such as xml, html, csv, tsv, as well as RSS and Atom feeds that you might read today in Google Reader.

Additionally, the limit on functions per spreadsheet is 50.

=importXML("URL","query")
* URL - the URL of the XML or HTML file
* query - the XPath query to run on the data given at the URL. For example, "//a/@href" returns a list of the href attributes of all <a> tags in the document (i.e. all of the URLs the document links to). For more information about XPath, please visit http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/
* Example: =importXml("www.google.com", "//a/@href"). This returns all of the href attributes (the link URLs) in all the <a> tags on www.google.com home page

=ImportHtml(URL, "list" | "table", index). This imports the data in a particular table or list from an HTML page. The arguments to the function are as follows:

* URL - the url of the HTML page
* either "list" or "table" to indicate what type of structure to pull in from the webpage. If it's "list," the function looks for the contents of <UL>, <OL>, or <DL> tags; if it's "table," it just looks for <TABLE> tags.
* index - the 1-based index of the table or the list on the source web page. The indices are maintained separately so there might be both a list #1 and a table #1.
* Example: =ImportHtml("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_India", "table",4). This function returns demographic information for the population of India.

* punypng: the new kid of the block.
* smush.it: Uses pngcrush as the main PNG optimizer. Currently, available in Yahoo’s YSlow Firefox plug-in. I believe it uses the -brute option for pngcrush.
* OptiPNG: A slighlty better algorithm, compared to pngcrush. In case you’re wondering, Google’s PageSpeed plugin also uses OptiPNG for it’s compression library.
* ImageOptim: The heavyweight contender. Available for OS X, ImageOptim uses every major library out there: advdef, pngcrush, optipng, pngcrush, jpegoptim, jpegtran, and optionally pngout. I ran this the benchmarks with pngout enabled.

javascrip animation

Javascript Animation: Tutorial, Part 1 - Schillmania.com
Javascript Animation: Tutorial, Part 2 - Schillmania.com

From my experience and findings over the years, the primary source of CPU drain stems from the browser's reflow/redaw response to dynamic changes in the DOM.

var points = {
  // moving a box "from" and "to", eg. on the X coordinate
  'from': 200,
  'to': 300
}
var frameCount = 20; // move from X to Y over 20 frames
var frames = []; // array of coordinates we'll compute

// "dumb" tween: "move X pixels every frame"
var tweenAmount = (points.to - points.from)/frameCount;
for (var i=0; i<frameCount; i++) {
  // calculate the points to animate
  frames[i] = points.from+(tweenAmount*i); 
}
// frames[] now looks like [205,210,215,220, ... ,300]; etc.

A more realistic tweening effect (including acceleration and deceleration) is achieved by changing the amount of motion made with each frame.

var points = {
  // moving a box "from" and "to", eg. on the X coordinate
  'from': 200,
  'to': 300
}
var animDelta = (points.to - points.from); // how far to move

// animation curve: "sum of numbers" (=100%), slow-fast-slow
var tweenAmount = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1];
// move from X to Y over frames as defined by tween curve
var frameCount = tweenAmount.length;
var frames = []; // array of coordinates we'll compute
var newFrame = points.from; // starting coordinate
for (var i=0; i<frameCount; i++) {
  // calculate the points to animate
  newFrame += (animDelta*tweenAmount[i]/100);
  frames[i] = newFrame;
}
// frames[] now looks like [201,203,206, ... ,228,236,245, ... ,297,299,300]; etc.

A linear acceleration and deceleration motion as above produces a visual improvement over a straight, linear motion. Each loop iteration adds a percentage of the total distance to move according to the tween amount, which adds up to 100%. Full-featured Javascript animation libraries go far beyond this in using bezier curves and fancier math functions, which provide much smoother motion tweens.

Keyboard events and key identifiers - Input Method Editors

http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/keyset.html#IME

A.1.3 Input Method Editors

Also known as front end processor, an input method editor (IME) is an application that performs the conversion between keystrokes and ideographs or other characters, usually by user-guided dictionary lookup.

This specification does not provide a representation of the input method editor (IME) events, i.e. the IME's functions and the IME context are not represented in this set. As an example, receiving a keydown for the "Accept" key identifier does not necessarily imply that the text currently selected in the IME is being accepted. It only indicates that a keystroke happened, disconnected from the IME Accept functionality. Depending on the device in use, the IME Accept functionality can be obtain using the Accept key or the Return key. Keyboard events cannot be used to determine the current state of the input method editor.

Keyboard events correspond to the events generated by the input device after the keyboard layout mapping but before the processing of the input method editor.

The following example describes a possible sequence of keys to generate the Unicode character 市 (Kanji character, part of CJK Unified Ideographs) using Japanese input methods. This example assumes that the input method editor is activated and in the Japanese-Romaji input mode. The keys "Convert" and "Accept" may be replaced by others depending on the input device in use and the configuration of the IME, e.g. it could be respectively "U+0020" (Space key) and "Enter".

1. "keydown": "U+0053" (Latin Capital Letter S key)
2. "keyup": "U+0053" (Latin Capital Letter S key)
3. "keydown": "U+0049" (Latin Capital Letter I key)
4. "keyup": "U+0049" (Latin Capital Letter I key)
5. "keydown": "Convert"
6. "keyup": "Convert"
7. "keydown": "Accept"
8. "textInput": "市"
9. "keyup": "Accept"

Best way to load your JavaScript

Best way to load your JavaScript

I’ve come to the conclusion that there’s just one best practice for loading JavaScript without blocking:

1. Create two JavaScript files. The first contains just the code necessary to load JavaScript dynamically, the second contains everything else that’s necessary for the initial level of interactivity on the page.
2. Include the first JavaScript file with a <script> tag at the bottom of the page, just inside the </body>.
3. Create a second <script> tag that calls the function to load the second JavaScript file and contains any additional initialization code.

function loadScript(url, callback) {
    var script = document.createElement("script")
    script.type = "text/javascript";
    if (script.readyState) { //IE
        script.onreadystatechange = function () {
            if (script.readyState == "loaded" ||
            script.readyState == "complete") {
                script.onreadystatechange = null;
                callback();
            }
        };
    } else { //Others
        script.onload = function () {
            callback();
        };

    }
    script.src = url;
    document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(script);
}

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://your.cdn.com/first.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
loadScript("http://your.cdn.com/second.js", function(){
    //initialization code
});
</script>

What if your page requires more than two files? Then you should be concatenating your files together either at build time (using something like Sprockets) or at run time (using something like mod_concat or a combo handler).
