How to Make a Single Page Website in jQuery
This tutorial explains how to create a vertical-scrolling single page website in four steps using jquery.There are at least 3 kinds of Single Page websites. The basic idea is that all content is placed on one page, but only a portion of it is centered on your computer screen at a given time. Then you can watch the old content slide away when you click a link, instead of loading a whole new page. Often, the scroll bar is still visible on the side, so you could actually drag it up and down and see the whole page at once.

SFX.js : Simple JavaScript audio wrapper for easy Sound Effects
Simple audio wrapper for easy sound effects on your website. SFX.js plays OGG files when browser supports them, and falls back to MP3 otherwise. OGG is prioritized because it is an open format with developer friendly licensing, unlike MP3… If a browser support for OGG files will be ubiquitous, I’d like to drop support for MP3 in SFX.js.
SFX works in Chrome, Opera, Firefox, Safari (with issues), and IE9+ (haven’t tested other browsers). Supported file types are:
- Chrome: OGG + MP3
- Opera: OGG
- Firefox: OGG
- Safari: MP3
- IE9: MP3
