Software Engineering in WordPress, PHP, and Backend Development
Posts introducing, updating, and covering various projects to which I’ve contributed or that I maintain.
A couple of years ago, I maintained a small project that sought to make it easy to incorporate a JavaScript slideshow in any web-based project.
Though I no longer maintain the project, there is a bit of organic traffic that still stumbles across this site and I periodically receive emails asking about Slideshow JS so I’m posting the last working version of the utility here.
jQuery 1.4.3 was recently released and SlideNote is 100% compatible with the new version.
SlideNote is a jQuery plugin that I created in an attempt to make it easy to display sliding notifications on your website or in your web application.
Hey – I’m Tom and this post is a bit obligatory.
I’m a software engineer living just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. When it comes to development, I’m into a number of different methodologies and technologies. I also enjoy working on a few side projects, contributing guest articles, and keeping track of notes.
Rather than throw that stuff all over the Internet, I wanted to track it all in one place so I thought I’d track it here.
