News Update 10/13/09

Gimme (Digory) is nearly complete, with Fetch integrated as its new querying engine. Along with Digory come some breaking syntax changes.

View the new GimmeDocs to learn about the updated API.

News Update 3/6/09

I've begun work on a new, stand-alone CSS Querying Engine (codename: Fetch). It's still in early stages and the source code is a bit sloppy. However, it has nearly achieved parity with Gimme's current CSS querying engine, and it passes all of the tests from the SlickSpeed Selectors Test (w/ one exception: pseudo not). When compared with other libraries that use pure javascript implementations (no XPath cheats), Fetch is out performing pretty much every library (at least in Firefox 3, where I do the majority of my testing). And the best part is the it's currently stands at only 2.5k (compressed and gzipped)!

Feel free to to take a look at Fetch (the source is available from the Source Code section), and please leave me your feedback if you try it out (sstchur(at)yahoo(dot)com).

Caspian Arrives!

Gimme v2.0 (Caspian) has moved out of beta and is now available for download at: http://www.codeplex.com/gimme/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=14321

Project Description

Gimme is a ECMAScript (or Javascript if you prefer) library designed to make working with "everyone's favorite scripting language" fun again!

The Gimme Promo Site

http://gimme.stchur.com

Documentation

Visit the Complete API Reference for documentation regarding Gimme's functionality (this is a work in progress)

Quick Sample

g('div.gimme').addEvent('click', clickHandler, false).addClass('pretty');

The above code snippet tells the browser "Gimme all <div> elements that contain the class 'gimme', and add a click event listener to each one that invokes the function, clickHandler when the click event is dispatched. And oh, by the way, add the class 'pretty' to each of those <div> elements while you're at it!"

sstchur — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 06:11:07 GMT

Gimme.Screen.getScrollPosition()

Retrieves the currently scrolled position of the browser as an object literal in the form { x: horizScroll, y: vertScroll }.

Returns: An object literal in form { x: horizScroll, y: vertScroll }
Params: None

Examples:

 
var scrollPos = Gimme.Screen.getScrollPosition();
alert('Browser is scrolled ' + scrollPos.x + ' in the horizontal direction and ' + scrollPos.y + ' in the vertical direction');

UPDATED WIKI: Gimme.Screen.getMousePosition(evt)

sstchur — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 06:04:55 GMT

Gimme.Screen.getMousePosition(evt)

Retrieve the current position of the mouse cursor as an object literal in the form { x: xPos, y: yPos }.

Returns: An object literal in form { x: xPos, y: yPos }
Params:

evt, required: A valid Javascript event object (generally obtained through an event function handler) which is used to determine the mouse cursor position.

Examples:

 
// assume console.log(..) is available to log arbitrary data to some console...
 
g('body').addEvent('mousemove', function(e)
{
	var mousePos = Gimme.Screen.getMousePosition(e);
	console.log('Mouse currently at: ' + mousePos.x + ', ' + mousePos.y);
});
