NO COPYRIGHTS OR LICENSES. DO WHAT YOU LIKE.
This is the new jQuery Tools license.
Copyrights and patents are evil. They block the natural progress of development. We all know it: if people start sharing instead of owning the world would be a better place. Today money is king. This results in closed systems and poor quality and in many cases people are even seriously exploited. For businessmen nothing is enough.
Releasing with this so-called license is a risky move. They should explicitly release the work into the public domain, using the words "public domain". Otherwise it's not clear (from the perspective of software licensing, which will eventually come up in the life of every project) what they mean by 'No copyrights or licenses'.
Interesting. Are you using Chrome for Windows, perhaps? I'm using Chrome for Mac (5.0.375.29), and all that happens when I click "See it in action" is that the page is scrolled to the top.
Doesn't work for me (Chrome nightly build on the Mac). Didn't work in the Chrome mac production build either.
For anything web related, no matter how slick it is, if it doesn't work on a few browsers, it won't get adoption unless you run a website that only caters to specific browsers on a specific platform (like a website that can only be accessed on an iPad device).
WebKit (Safari, Chrome etc.) has more complete and more robust HTML5 support than FF. What you're seeing is a Chrome-specific issue, as it works just perfectly in Safari.
Looks like this will be awesome once the compatibility issues are fixed. Right now it's a no-go on iPad. Works well on Mac Safari and Mac FF latest versions.
I wonder if it has dependencies on mouse-overs that are killing it for iPad right now?
Doesn't work in Chrome either. The interesting thing is that they claim that it works everywhere: "The form works on all major browsers even in IE6"
Note to developers: If you're going to make a claim that it works everywhere, something that works with IE6 won't necessarily work on newer browsers. I think web developers will often check to make sure it works in their current browser, then check IE6. And if it works in both browsers, make the claim that it works everywhere.
Yeah I've learned the hard way that to say something works in a browser you have to test it in that browser. That version too. And with http and https (the latter sometimes behaves differently due to caching differences).
I'm guessing platform specific... because the chromium builds don't work either and the nightly builds are built off of the chrome trunk. But since it doesn't work on any of the mobile browsers, I'm guessing the code might have other issues too.

That's a pretty strong statement.
