Phosphorus and Lime

Encountered a problem yesterday on IE trying to apply style sheet setting to a class name that had been dynamically set using DOM. Worked on Firefox, failing on IE. Isolated the problem and summarized it as:

"ie set class name css"

That is the search that led to this nice write-up which offers a solution and also links by comment to this more thorough solution.

Anyway, I'm starting a page on my wiki for all the aggravating little exceptions I find in javascript/DOM implementation.

Kwyption is a javascript class that uses javascript implementations of md5 and rc4 to provide a simple object interface for encrypting and decrypting strings. A demo can be found here:

I've been working with Javascript a lot lately and that has led me back to an old challenge: developing a simple, clean framework for dynamically loading javascript classes. Most the mature javascript and AJAX frameworks have this, but upon examination, most proved too involved. I wanted something that could be set up simply for a new class and, ideally, be used for multiple classes in coordination.

After much research, trial, and tribulation, I think I've arrived at something that accomplishes this. I call it J.ini, or jini. More details can be found here:
