Counting Button Clicks With JavaScript

Sometimes you need to know how many times the user clicks on an element. The most common solution is to create a counter as a global variable but with jQuery, you can prevent polluting the global scope by using data()to store the counter.

    $('button')
        .data('counter', 0)
        .click(function () {
            var counter = $(this).data('counter');
            $(this).data('counter', counter + 1);
            alert($(this).data('counter'));
        });

Preload Images On Your Website With JavaScript

This code will prevent your site form taking more time to load. This kind of situation looks bad but is also unprofessional. All you have to do is add your images to the preloadImages section and you are ready to roll.

<script type="text/javascript">

    var images = new Array();

    function preloadImages(){

        for (i=0; i < preloadImages.arguments.length; i++){

            images[i] = new Image();

            images[i].src = preloadImages.arguments[i];

        }

    }

    preloadImages("logo.jpg", "main_bg.jpg", 
        "body_bg.jpg", "header_bg.jpg");
