Open Source Alternative

What is Open Source Alternative?

Open Source Alternative or oslat.com is a website that lists an Open Source Software alternative to a well-known Commercial Software. This is very good if you can not afford buying a commercial software and you are in need of the features that the software provides, in this website you can look for the alternative for this commercial software. I must say that it is listing more and more software alternatives each day but I must say that you may not find an alternative for some commercial softwares that you want but you can suggest this software. The website has many categories for software products such as Graphic applications, development, security & privacy, web development and many more.

ModalBox – Web 2.0-style Modal Dialogs and Wizards

What is ModalBox?

ModalBox is a JavaScript technique for creating modern (Web 2.0-style) modal dialogs or even wizards (sequences of dialogs) without using conventional popups and page reloads. It’s inspired by Mac OS X modal dialogs. And yes, it may also be useful for showing bigger versions of images.

ModalBox is built with pure JavaScript and is based on Sam Stephenson’s excellent Prototype JavaScript Framework, script.aculo.us and valid XHTML/CSS. ModalBox uses AJAX to load content.

ModalBox technique is still in development. Believe me it is wonderful.

Really Easy Field Validation

Form validation is a crucial thing in web applications and making them sometimes requires hard work. Here’s a form validation script that is very easy to use. It has a number of tests built-in but is extensible to include your custom validation checks. Here’s the list of tests available to add to your field elements:

  • not blank – required
  • a valid number
  • digits only
  • letters only
  • only letters and numbers
  • a valid date value
  • a valid email address
  • a valid URL
  • a date formatted as; dd/mm/yyyy
  • a valid dollar value
  • first option e.g. ‘Select one…’ is not selected option
  • At least one textbox/radio element must be selected in a group

Here is a demo of the field validation.
