The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

Search and Share - Text Selection

1. Get credit for your content. Whenever someone selects more than 40 characters from your web page and clicks the “Copy” link, your page title and URL will be included in the footer of the copied text. No longer will excerpts of your paragraphs float around AIM, or other places on the web, without attribution.

2. Improve word of mouth. Or word of email anyway. Just like the copy functionality, your users will also be presented with the option to directly embed the excerpt in a newly composed email within Outlook, Gmail or Yahoo Mail.

3. Go new-media viral. Make it easier for people to tweet about you. If you’ve got a younger audience, this twitter option will be a mass-promotion alternative to the more direct but confined email.

Context button plugin

A lightweight context menu that can be attached to any html element. The menu opens by hovering mouse over the element and can be customised in various ways.

Basic usage: $().contextMenu(['menu_item_1', 'menu_item_2', ... , 'menu_item_n']);

All the menu items can call custom functions.

The graphical representation is fully customisable through CSS.

For demo, download and docs see the plugin home page and demo

ContextMenu Plugin - Simple but powerful: themes, animations, many options, highly extensible

Submitted by mkruse on October 20, 2008 - 11:33am

This plugin enables you to display a custom context menu on right click in browsers that support it. This is commonly used in web applications that are simulating desktop behavior or wish to add advanced functionality for their users.

There are other context menu plugins - so why did I write one? This one is extremely configurable, customizable, and extensible. If any part of the default behavior is not exactly what you need, it is very simple to override the default functionality without changing the plugin code. Several themes are included so you can display the context menus in a style that you pick. Writing your own themes is very simple. Understanding and customizing the CSS is straight-forward and documented.

There are many examples showing off lots of the functionality here. The best way to see what this plugin can do is to try it out!
