Stumbled on this JQuery Corner Demo which shows a really nice and flexible way to create rounded corners (or not even rounded) for boxes. The only potential problem here is: is this more CPU cycles than using the image/CSS tricks? Probably worth a very good try if you are already using jQuery on your sites. Regardless, worthy of a bookmark - especially if you need rounded corners at 2am in the morning.

James Padolsey has a nice imgPreview jQuery plugin, which i kinda like the look of. It shows a preview of an image when you hover over a link, similar to a tooltip.

This plugin allows any developer to recreate a “page slide” interaction on their own website… pageSlide wraps the original body content into a wrapper and creates an additional block for the secondary content load. The slide is animated whenever the click event is invoked.

FancyBox is another lightbox but according to it’s author it’s “something fresh and Mac-like”. Uses jQuery.
Features:
* Automatically scales large images to fit in window
* Adds a nice drop shadow under the zoomed item
* Groups related items and adds navigation through them (uses preloading)
* Can display images, inline and iframed content
* Customizable through settings and CSS

FancyBox is another lightbox solution using jQuery. Not too impressed - i don’t like the way the photos disappeared as you “scroll” through them but does hold out some promise as something to consider. According to the site, looks like it’s also going to be reworked in the near future.
