We’re working on making this site more compatible, most of the code should now be working in IE 5.5, Opera, Safari, and Firefox. Also, I’ve installed a new syntax highlighter (Codepress). In the future we’ll add some member features so anyone could contribute in real-time.

Before jumping into things, I would like to introduce the Javascript Color Matrix Library. It’s a very simple example of the most basic ColorMatrix formulas — much of it is inspired by Quasimondo’s wonderful Flash 8 ColorMatrix Class. Today, we’ll be combining the Color Blindness library along with a <canvas> implementation of ColorMatrix. So now, just like in Actionscript, you can apply photoshop-like filters to <canvas>.

Today, we have a few new updates for you. First off, the Color Conversion Library has been expanded to include HEX, RGB, HSV, CMYK, XYZ, Lab color spaces. On the same note, I’d like to introduce the DHTML Color Picker v2.0 — another Open Source product (GPL & CC) by the ColorJack crew. This color picker was developed for one of our upcoming products… Keep tuned for more news on that!

Previously featured as the most popular widget on Apple.com, the Piano Theory code is now GPL’d! It’s currently being used in schools across the country to help teach people the theory behind piano. Feel free to expand upon the code, and create something even more useful.

The entire NoFunc catalog has been re-released under GPL, aka “copyleft license”, thus removing many of the restrictions of Creative Commons. Enjoy! :)

Two new libraries added:

1. Color Conversion Library (converts between: HEX, RGB, HSV, RYB + WEBSAFE)
2. Color Blindness Library (blindness filters: Protanopia, Protanomaly, Deuteranopia, Deuteranomaly, Tritanopia, Tritanomaly, Achromatopsia + Achromatomaly)

Check out the newest nomadic function, much like the DHTML Color Picker, however, this time it’s resizeable + very compact. You can resize from very small, or VERY LARGE :)

Play around with it, it’s kinda fun.

Two new functions this week dealing with tables. The 1st one is something that I’ve been trying to get to work for quite some time… the ability to move rows and reorganize columns quickly, stylishly, and with as little code as possible. The other script is for sorting tables. Using both these nomadic functions you can create this music playlist example.

We’ve decided to move off the mudcube website, and onto our own domain NoFunc.org (as in “Nomadic Function”). Also, check out the code section… they all now include examples! Currently the site is heavily under development, so check back for changes soon. I’ve got a few more releases in mind…

Have a nomadic function you would like to release? We’d love to hear from you.

We’ve put together a small archive of 11 nomadic functions. From the DHTML Color Picker, to the AJAX Star Rating system, to the Quicker onLoad script; these functions cover a wide area of topics. All functions listed in the codebase, are licensed under the GPL. Use them for your projects!
