Open Source Alternative to Teamspeak (TS) and Ventrilo (Vent)

Looking for a open source cross-platform alternative to Teamspeak (TS) or Ventrilo (Vent)? Check out this project for a great gaming VOIP solution;

"Mumble is an open source, low-latency, high quality voice chat software primarily intended for use while gaming."

Gentoo have recently masked Teamspeak client/server due to security issues because it contains Internal copies of vulnerable libraries.

So now a great time for you to discover a true open source alternative!

JQuery plugin : onFocus/onblur INPUT text/password color change

This is a small JQuery plugin which will make every single text and password box on the page change color when it gains or loses focus.

I wrote this so i could just include the plugin rather than using the standard js way of adding a onFocus+onBlur event to every input box on a page.

When a input gains focus a CSS class called "highLightInput" is added to it and when it loses focus (blurs) this class is removed.

jquery.textinput.focus.colorise.zip

Demo

Usage

  1. Download/Extract JQuery
  2. Download/Extract our plugin
  3. Include jquery and the plugin in your page with;
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.textinput.focus.colorise.js"></script>
    
  4. Setup a CSS class called "highLightInput" which the text box will be set to on focus. e.g. ;
    .highLightInput {
        background-color: #FCFFC5 ! important;
        background-image: none ! important;
    }
