The Future of JavaScript � take a peek today!
The ECMA committee is working hard on designing the next version of JavaScript, also known as "Harmony". It is due by the end of next year and it is going to be the most comprehensive upgrade in the history of this language. Chrome and V8 are committed to pushing JavaScript forward and have already started implementing the new features. You can try some of them today in the latest dev channel release. Here’s a summary: Lexical scoping. Now "let" is the new "var" – traditional "var...

Understand this in JavaScript
In JavaScript, this is always pointing to the owner of a function or a method. Function Let's check out function first. function introduce() { alert("Hello, I am Laruence\r\n"); } For this function, what does this point to? In JavaScript, a global function's owner is the current page, i.e, the window object. Because its a method of the window object if we define a global function. Now you should know the this will point to the window object in the above function. ...

Writing API clients in Perl and Python
I recently released a couple of API clients for the Ge.tt file sharing service, one in Perl and one in Python. (I am just a fan of the service, not an employee or contractor.) I would judge myself an "intermediate" pythonista mostly due to inexperience. It's a culture shock coming from a background of CPAN. The old joke is that Perl is just a life support system for CPAN and that is arguably true, but I am here to tell you: you may not appreciate how good Perl hackers have it with respe...

trim() in JavaScript
In the past, JavaScript didn't define the trim() function for String object. This makes web programmers frustrated since they often need to implement this function themselves if they want to handle user inputs. The new version of ECMA-262 introduces the trim() function.15.5.4.20 String.prototype.trim ( ) The following steps are taken: 1. Call CheckObjectCoercible passing the this value as its argument. 2. Let S...

Load and execute JavaScript
When we load and execute JavaScript in a webpage, there are many points we need to care about because of its design and feature. There are two features about JavaScript execution in a browser: 1). The JavaScript codes will be executed immediately once loaded;2). When JavaScript codes are being executed, they will block the following contents (including page rendering and other resources downloading). So if there are multiple js files to be loaded, these codes will be executed sequentially. Since...

Why does LinkedIn migrate to NodeJS from Ruby?
Node.js, the server-side JavaScript-based software platform used to build scalable network applications, has been all the rage among many developers for the past couple of years. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices. Because of these advantages, there are many websites are migrating to Node.js.One of them is LinkedIn. LinkedIn was initially built on Ruby...
ECMAScript 6 looks promising
I am quite excited about ECMAScript 6, after watching David Herman’s talk at YUIConf 2011. I am especially looking forward to seeing some of these features landing up on V8 soon, so that I can use it on node.js. These additions will solve many common sources of frustration that newcomers face when working with JavaScript. Although the spec is not expected to be finalized till 2013 (so says David in the video), a lot of these features are expected to hit Chrome and Firefox much befor...

Output control functions in PHP
The Output Control functions in PHP allow you to control when output is sent from the script. This can be useful in several different situations, especially if you need to send headers to the browser after your script has began outputting data. The Output Control functions do not affect headers sent using header() or setcookie(), only functions such as echo and data between blocks of PHP code. These output control functions include ob_start(0, ob_clean(),ob_get_contents(), etc. To be honest, I a...

Mastering Async/Await in JavaScript: A Comprehensive Guide with Examples
As a veteran JavaScript developer, I have seen the evolution of JavaScript's asynchronous programming landscape. From callbacks to promises and now async/await, JavaScript has come a long way in making it easier to handle asynchronous operations in a clean and readable manner. In this article, we will delve into the world of async/await and explore why it has become a popular choice for handling asynchronous operations in JavaScript. We will cover the basics of async/await, its syntax, and how i...

How to handle ES6 modules in NodeJS
In modern JavaScript, there are two types of modules: ES6 module and CommonJS module used by NodeJS. These two types of module are not compatible. Many people would wonder how to load ES6 modules in their NodeJS project. This post will show how this can be done. Difference The syntax of the module being loaded is different. CommonJS modules are loaded with require() and exported with module.exports. ES6 modules are loaded and exported using import and export respectively. Merchanismwise require(...
