Showdown (also known as PageDown) is a JavaScript parser for Markdown-formatted text. It’s used on this site to generate a formatted preview of your comment as you type it. Showdown is library-agnostic, but fortunately, using it with jQuery isn’t much of a problem.

Every time you click that shiny little Reader button, Safari generates an HTML document and displays it as an overlay to the original document. Let’s have a look at the HTML and CSS used in this process, and find out how we can mess with it.

A few days ago, Martín Borthiry contacted me with a question. He had been using the optimized asynchronous Google Analytics snippet for a while, and noticed an additional speed gain when wrapping it inside a setTimeout() with a delay of 0 milliseconds. His tests made it pretty clear that this technique was indeed slightly faster, but Martín had no clue why.

“Touch icons” are the favicons of mobile devices and tablets. Adding them to your web page is relatively easy, but it gets more complicated as you target different devices and firmware versions. Let’s dive in!

This is one of those posts I wrote just to be able to link back to it later. I see a lot of questions on the subject, and even though I don’t mind explaining the same thing over and over again, it’s probably easier to just write it down once.

Fun fact: var foo = { H̹̙̦̮͉̩̗̗ͧ̇̏̊̾Eͨ͆͒̆ͮ̃͏̷̮̣̫̤̣Cͯ̂͐͏̨̛͔̦̟͈̻O̜͎͍͙͚̬̝̣̽ͮ͐͗̀ͤ̍̀͢M̴̡̲̭͍͇̼̟̯̦̉̒͠Ḛ̛̙̞̪̗ͥͤͩ̾͑̔͐ͅṮ̴̷̷̗̼͍̿̿̓̽͐H̙̙̔̄͜: 42 }; is valid JavaScript. It may not be immediately obvious, but the real surprise here is that the Cthulhu-esque property name is not surrounded by quotes. Intrigued by this, and having written about the similar topic of JavaScript identifiers before, I decided to look into valid property names in JavaScript. When do they need to be quoted? When can the quotes be omitted? And in which cases can dot notation be used instead of bracket notation to get or set a property based on its name?

Are the quotes in font-family: 'Comic Sans MS' required, or not? If you thought the answer was yes, you may want to read on.

Looking for a list of all reserved words in JavaScript? You’ve come to the right place. I recently needed such a list myself, but ended up comparing the reserved keywords in all ECMAScript versions as well. The result is listed below, for future reference.
