jQuery Fade in/out on Rollover Effect
Use this to make any element fade smoothly from slightly opaque to fully opaque.
This is jQuery basics, but I figure some people could find it helpful.
What makes this (any animate() transition) smooth is using the stop() function before calling the animate() function. Continue reading

Query strings. Its all about query strings.
It is a kinda hacky way of going about this – but basically the concept is you add a variable to your URL (the query string) that is different every time it is loaded (e.g., a math random function).
In my example, I am using SimplePie, a PHP RSS agregator class, to pull in my flickr photos.
$flickr->set_feed_url(array('http://api.flickr.com
/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=83039253@N00=
en-us&format=rss?'.rand(0,99)));
At the end of the URL you will notice ?'.rand(0,99). The ? is the beginning of the query string, and the “.” is concatenating a random number between 0 and 99 onto the end of the URL.
Hope this helps someone.

Suckerfish IE z-index problem fixed
Place a div around the main ul, and give it a z-index of 999.This took me quite a while to figure out, so maybe this could quickly help someone out.
