Design Elements with Javascript


JQuery is the go-to library for designers utilizing JavaScript in their web pages, but you should also be careful not to over-use it and frankly, should avoid use of it when you can because many web browsers now come with features that can block JavaScript, like Firefox and Google Chrome.
For this reason, you should only use JavaScript in special cases and in a fashion where redundancy won't hurt the look or feel of your design. I used it to show brief overviews of a company's services, but also provided separate sections that were readable in browsers that accepted CSS/HTML standards.
Here is a sample of the small accordion I made using JavaScript and the JQuery library:
