Tired of looping through recordsets to create select lists? This creates them easily with all the bells and whistles.

IsEmail

Record Navigation Bar
Creates VB-style recordset navigation control with a standard HTML form. You can see it in action in many places on this site like the Recipes page.

JavaScript

Form Event Monitor
Tool for observing how events fire in an HTML form. For example, which fires first in an <INPUT> form field--onChange or onBlur? Did you know the order is different in Firefox and IE? It's vital to know stuff like that when writing cross-browser JavaScript event handlers.

JS Toolbox
A collection of useful JavaScript functions I've developed over the years. Includes form validation routines, cookie handling and JS equivalents of dozens of common ColdFusion functions for working with dates, lists and strings. If you've ever pulled your hair out trying to validate a date someone typed into a form field, this will save you the price of Rogain. Updated to include RFC 3696 email validation.
