It has been 6 months I have started using Blogger, and during this time I have been facing a common question about “Blog designing” from many of my friends [Even in my college]. Each time, I have to explain them that, there is nothing particular which is known as “Blog Design”. Designing a Blogger or a WordPress blog is all about “Web Designing”. To design your blog, the way you want, you need to MASTER CSS and xHTML...

First of all, thanks to all of you for your great support. Through out this month, due to college, freshers etc, we [Me and Pyrotechnicpixie] were unable to update our blog regularly! Still, the page visits, traffic, subscribers have increased dramatically and this is really something we can say “Achievement”.

How many times you have thought of making such a widget on your Blogger/BlogSpot which can show a particular content on your Blog Home-Page, and some other content on individual pages?

Just like any other AJAX based widgets, the main advantage of the widget is that, it will load the twitter...

If you are a JavaScript Programmer then you must be aware of the fact that you not only need to code your script properly but also you need to make the size as low as possible! But while scripting the code, obviously our attention stays on making the code unique, stylish and easy to debug! We add lots of comments inside the code to make things easy to remember and debug and often over look the size! It may sound weird, but if can remove...

About a week back, my Photoshop Expert friend Nishad asked me about the Contact Form we are using at inTechgrity. Nice contact form…how does it work…. i expect som tuts from u based on contact form… The question was quite obvious, because, by default blogger does not let us to make Contact Me form and if we share our emails directly then what we are going to get everyday is SPAM. So making a Contact form is rather useful...

You should have noticed the cool Tooltip we have implemented at our inTechgrity blog. Yes, this one! Now this is quite cool isn’t it? Basically it is nothing but a jQuery plugin which we are using! After talking much about jQuery FAQs for beginners I thought of extending this topic over many plugins, their implementation guide and of course discussing on jQuery core functions. So today, we are going to share a simple yet powerful plugin,...
