Menu Firstchild | drupal.org
by claire_By default, Drupal 6 requires that you enter a path for each menu link you add/edit from the Menu administration page. There are cases you may want to create a parent item, without any path, that simply links to its first viewable child item. Menu Firstchild provides this functionality.
jQuery UI.Layout Plug-in
by redyrod & 3 othersThis plug-in was inspired by the extJS border-layout, and recreates that functionality as a jQuery plug-in. The UI.Layout plug-in can create any UI look you want - from simple headers or sidebars, to a complex application with toolbars, menus, help-panels, status bars, sub-forms, etc.
Combined it with other jQuery UI widgets to create a sophisticated application. There are no limitations or issues - this widget is ready for production use. All feedback and requests are welcome as development is ongoing. If you create a good looking application using UI.Layout, please let us know.
This plug-in is on the jQuery site at: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/Layout
If you like it, please 'rate it' for the benefit of other users :)

Google Testing Blog: Automating tests vs. test-automation
by mbertier (via)The common attitude, that the UI deserves most attention because it is what the user sees, is flawed. Even a perfect UI will not satisfy a user if the underlying functionality is corrupt.
