Web Design and the DMCA: Giving and Getting Take Down Notices
by Gregory Rutchik (in Articles)

It's a change of pace this week for Digital Web, as we turn away
from web design for a relaxing look at the world of copyright law
and take-down notices. Attorney Gregory Rutchik lays down the law
(see what I did there?) on what to do when you give--or receive--
a DMCA take-down.

Excerpt: Accelerated DOM Scripting with Ajax, APIs and Libraries
by Jonathan Snook (in Articles)

The abundance of JavaScript libraries available to developers can
be both a blessing and a curse: it's great to have variety, but
how do you know which one to choose for which purpose? The
venerable Jonathan Snook makes it look easy with an excerpt from
his upcoming book, Accelerated DOM Scripting with Ajax, APIs and
Libraries.

Building a Bulletproof Contact Form with PHP
by Matthew Pennell (in Articles)

Some of us know PHP inside and out, but many of us still have yet
to take the leap into learning this very useful language.
Virtually all the sites we create need contact forms, and PHP is a
straightforward and safe way to build them. So, for those who are
eager to find reliable PHP code they can copy (and tweak just a
bit), or those who can build a basic contact form but are
concerned about preventing some of the spam-related dangers,
Digital Web Managing Editor Matthew Pennell walks us through the
process, step by step.

jQuery Crash Course
by Nathan Smith (in Articles)

When it comes to the thorny subject of JavaScript libraries,
picking the right one for you can be a difficult decision. File
size or features, animations or AJAX, global namespace pollution
or... whatever the opposite of that is. Digital Web columnist
Nathan Smith thinks he's found his ideal partner in jQuery, and
takes to the sky to prove it.
