ff javascript library is a minimal library meant to develop real-life Javascript-enabled Web sites. ff javascript library offers a cross-brower API for all common browsers.

That is, all w3 standards compatible browsers (Mozilla/Firefox, Opera, Safari/Konqueror, etc.) on one side and Internet Explorer on the other side. At less than 7kb for the compressed Javascript version and even less than 3kb for the gzipped version, it offers quick loading even for dialup users.

Here are some key features of "ff javascript library":
Crossbrowser AJAX, Event and DOM functions offering the same API for w3 DOM compatible browsers and Internet Explorer.
DOM helper functions and a DOM builder allowing to easily create complex DOM trees.
Firebug support / emulation. If the library is executed on firefox with firebug installed it uses firebug's logging and error reporting functions -- otherwise it sets up a firebug emulation. This emulation by default does nothing and logs to a debug DIV when the URL parameter "ffdebug=1" is passed to the document.
ScriptDoc comments enabling Code Assist functionality in Aptana

What's New in This Release:
More and better documentation.
Two examples were added.
ff.dom.append was fixed.
DOM builder IE compatibility was increased.
Firebug console emulation was enhanced.
Some additional ff.dom and ff.style functions were added.
