انتقلت إلى رحمة الله جدتي الغالية “منيرة بنت عبد العزيز الزامل”، توفيت يوم أمس قرابة الساعة العاشرة والنصف صباحاً عن عمر يناهز 87 لتلحق بجدي “عبد الرحمن بن عبد العزيز الراشد” رحمة الله عليه بعد 58 سنة، قضت معظمها رحمة الله عليها في تربية أطفالها الستة ثم العناية بأمها رحمة الله عليهما.
جزاك الله ألف خير، وغفر لك، وأنزلك الفردوس الأعلى يا رب.
لا تنسوها بدعائكم

I was not a big fan of JavaScript, until new cool technologies emerged that utilize JavaScript in really useful ways, the most impressive of course would be AJAX related functionality.

AJAX is really easy to use, put some features are hard to implement which lead to JavaScript libraries emerging every where, the most popular are:

• Yahoo! UI
• Prototype and script.aculo.us
• jQuery
• Dojo
• MochiKit
