In order to declare a Javascript object inside another one you would need to enter code similar to what is below.
var book = {
title: 'Nothing new!',
author: {name: 'Annyce', email:'annyce@gmail.com'}
};
You could then reference the author’s name via:
book.author.name
and if you wanted to update the name of the author, you would use
book.author.name = ‘Sarah’;
This feature of Javascript becomes very useful when you attempt to create an object with default settings and so forth.

This is useful because for some reason the :contains selector in jQuery is not case-insensitive. BTW the code below works with jQuery 1.3.
jQuery.expr[':'].contains = function(a,i,m){
return jQuery(a).text().toUpperCase()
.indexOf(m[3].toUpperCase())>=0;
};

Ok so finally I found this amazing post that answers a question that has been driving me insane the past two days…How can I pass a variable to an onclick event with a link that I just created dynamically in JavaScript. And then I come across this post and it just makes so much sense; why didn’t I think of it myself.
Anyway, if you ever have the same question here is the link…

I was trying desperately to uninstall MySQL on my new MacBook Pro. I received a few weird messages that the ‘mysql.sock’ was running and I didn’t know how to shut it down. Finally after searching through many, many blogs I found the solution.
I needed to view the list of processes, get the process id and then kill the process. Here’s how you do it.
To see a list of processes type below in the Terminal:
ps uxww
To end the processes type below in the Terminal:
kill process_id process_id
example:
ps uxww
kill 2345 2455
