I love it when a developer takes some of your code and improves it in ways you cannot imagine. The original 360 Visualizer was just an attempt to recreate some functionality that is often seen in Flash, but rarely in DHTML (I know it is fashionable to call everything AJAX these days, but really these Web 2.0 visual effects are DHTML, not AJAX. But I digress). J5, an extremely talented developer took off on the Visualizer. He integrated a mouse-drag interface and implemented a config file for the Visualizer (the old one just looped through a folder of images, quick and easy, but not very customizable).

This is just a demo of a DHTML visualizer often seen on auto sites (I had done some [a lot] work on the Nissan GT-R Global Site which has a flash 360 visualizer). There have been many of these done in Flash, I just wanted to see if it was possible using the same assets and JavaScript.

The FAQ Accordion project started as a demonstration identifying some of the advantages of using jQuery over JavaScript DOM manipulation. Both the plain JavaScript and the jQuery plug-in versions of FAQ Accordion operate in the same manner. No extra markup or stylesheets are required for either to work. The plain JavaScript version can be used on simple sites that do not utilize the jQuery library
