Enlight is based on both the Zend framework and the Symphony 2 framework but, unlike them, focuses on the developing of modern rich internet applications (RIA) as well as individual ecommerce applications.

The integrated Enlight plugin system makes it possible for users to create own plugins along with update routines. It is also possible to make use of a vast range of community plugins.

The framework comes with a native administration interface for an easy handling of the individually created applications. Through the standard integration of ExtJS 4, the Enlight framework offers you the most diverse UI and charting components for your own modules.

An awesome way to add life to single-page sites.

jQuery Scroll Path is a jQuery plugin for defining a custom path that the browser follows when scrolling.

The plugin uses canvas flavored syntax for drawing paths, using the methods moveTo, lineTo and arc. To help with getting the path right, a canvas overlay with the path can be enabled when initating the plugin.

Scrolling can be done with the mousewheel, up/down arrow keys and spacebar. The spacebar scrolls faster than the arrow keys, and holding shift while pressing space will scroll backwards. A custom scrollbar is also included, which allows click and drag scrolling.

The plugin also allows rotating the entire page, using CSS transforms. This can be done either along a path, or around the current position. In browsers without CSS transform support, all rotations are ignored, but paths are still followed. This means the plugin works with graceful degradation in all browsers.

Normally, when a developer comes across this requirement, the only thing to do is to open the image up with your favorite graphics editor, use the select tool to cut out the shape you want, and then save the result as a PNG, since it is the only image format used by all web browsers that support alpha channels.

The problem is that PNG images, while compressed, are not as small as JPEGs if the source image is a photograph, and the download time of a page can balloon to unacceptable levels if there are many of these types of image on a page.

polyClip.js is a jQuery plugin that uses HTML5 canvas to clip a JPEG (or any other image for that matter). The library also supports older versions of IE (7-8) using the Excanvas JavaScript library which polyfills canvas using VML.
