To me jQuery is javascript library that helps the developer in interacting with HTML element/DOM but what library that can be used to help in manipulating the Javascript object?I found “Underscore.js” which can be found in here (http://underscorejs.org). It provides the user to manipulate the JS object (e.g It provides function to manipulate Arrays, Add delay to your function, throttling your JS function, Check the data type of an object, etc)

A couple functions that I found useful

1. Manipulating your JSON object with “Where, filter and findWhere”

2. A few helpers to validate the data type of an object

It’s pretty clean to set, bind and use enum in your javascript

//Enum declaration
var AvailableActions = { “Action”: 1, “Priority”: 2, “Status”: 3 };

//Bind
function Load()
{
for (var action in AvailableActions) {
jQuery(“#MandatoryActionList”).append(“<option value=” + AvailableActions[action] + “>” + action + “</option>”);
}
}

//Use the enum
AvailableActions[“Priority”] will return 2
action will return the string representation in this case e.g “Action”, “Priority”, or “Status”

I was required to create a SQL Splitter function and I tried to browse internet to find an article about it but I never thought there is someone has done wonderful job in comparing the performance of his SQL Split function including with the benchmark and technical break down. Now based on this article, I’m quite sure I have a strong/high performance SQL Splitter function

I’ve just found that Microsoft has just released a repository for all scripts which are driven by Technet script repository and Microsoft Customer Script & Support, the sample scripts are based on the real world scenario which are expected to save the IT admin/developer to reinvent the wheel for a particular task and instead they can build upon it or modify it. The repository covers sample for Microsoft Office, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Sharepoint, Microsoft Windows 7, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and Office 365
