How to create a game using jQuery
Today we are making a simple puzzle game called “Fifteen”. The purpose of the game is to slide 15 square blocks around to form an image. The goal of this tutorial is to look at this simple browser-based game and explain how it was made line by line. It’s a great way to learn jQuery. For this tutorial, We will use a 2D image square-sliding game I created last week and I will go over each line of code to demonstrate the train of thought. I really do believe that breaking this game up into explanations on per-line basis will help you understand how to use jQuery in your own projects.

3D CSS3 Book Generator with jQuery
Today we made up my mind to develop something really interesting and useful for you. A new jQuery plugin – as a generator of books. The main idea is to display user friendly book basing on raw text (with images). The book consists of pages, each page consists of 2 sides (as in a usual book), there are buttons Back-Next at the sides of pages to navigate through the pages, and when we turn the pages we see that the pages are turned in 3D (powered by CSS3). In order to achieve this 3D effect we use CSS3 transform (rotate3d, preserve-3d and rotateY) and transition effects.

Webcam Video Capture in HTML5 and CSS3 filters
As we know – HTML5 defines a new element called <video> for embedding video. Usually people use this element to embed a video into web page. It is very convenient. Because the <video> element is designed to be usable without any detection scripts. You can just specify multiple video files, and browsers that support HTML5 video will choose one based on what video formats they support. Now, let’s imagine that we can use the same element to access a user’s camera and microphone. Our article opens these boundaries. I’m going to show you how to capture a video from your webcam in HTML5, and even more, I will show you how to pass this video into <canvas> object, and even – how to apply custom CSS3 filters to our video.

Javascript cross-domain api for your website
Welcome our readers. Today I would like to give a small but very important lesson where we will create our own cross-domain javascript api. I think that many of you have already tried to implement something similar, and maybe you faced with the impossibility of normal operation with the API functions at third-party domains. Basically, you just can not make a normal AJAX requests to a remote server and receive a reply in your javascript function. And all because of security regulations. But today I’ll show you how to solve this problem.
