DZone asked me to write an article about DOMAssistant, so I chose to give an introduction to how to work with element selection and especially different ways of making AJAX calls. Please read Making Element Selection and AJAX simple with DOMAssistant for more information.
Many people ask me how I choose to address an situation where all content in a web should be available without JavaScript, but certain parts hidden if JavaScript is enabled.
We have just released a PictureSlides plugin for DOMAssistant, with which you can create picture slideshows, image presentations and also complete picture galleries.
There has been a fair share about JavaScript and event delegation, but since a lot of people doesn’t seem to have read it, I thought I’d re-iterate the point here. The more the merrier, right? 
I have been interviewed for DZone/Web Builder Zone, where I mainly talk about DOMAssistant. Hopefully you get answers to some questions you have possibly had.
The new version of DOMAssistant, 2.7, is finally out and my impression is that it is a very stable and solid release. Faster CSS selector performance, new features while at the same time a smaller file size.
Today I though it would be a good time to tell you about two web developers who I would really like to recommend to you: Lim Cheng Hong and Pelle Wessman 
(Pelle’s blog).
A number of exciting things have been going on in the DOMAssistant camp, so I thought I’d fill you in with some of the latest. We’re talking plugins, developer tools and taking a glimpse into the future.
Almost a month ago, I wrote a hesitant post about DOMAssistant in DOMAssistant - Why bother?, so it’s about time to talk about that again.
Maybe I’m just writing this because I’ve been feeling a bit low lately, but I do wonder if there’s any idea that I put any more time into DOMAssistant.
I’ve had some people worrying about the GPL license I’ve used for DOMAssistant, and it being too strict so they can’t use it in their commercial project.
Therefore, DOMAssistant has now changed to a MIT License, which basically means you can pretty much do anything with it!
Enjoy!
I just released DOMAssistant 2.5.5 yesterday, but with the feedback given, some tweaks had to be made to the new AJAX module post method. Instead of updating the same version multiple times, which is wrong, I’ve new made a new minor release where the issues have been taken care of.
So, download the new 2.5.6 version if you’re using DOMAssistant.
Just as mentioned by chenghong, I made a mistake and stripped the URL in AJAX GET requests as well. Something I knew, but that’s what I get for preaching about assertions but not applying it properly to my own code. I guess my intuition took overhand for a while. 
Anyway, I’ve released a 2.5.7 version of DOMAssistant now (available for download) where everything should be sorted. If you’re using the 2.5.5 or 2.5.6 version, everything should be working fine but the AJAX module’s get and post methods, but please update to make sure you have the latest working version.
I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this might cause you.
I have just released DOMAssistant 2.5.5, which contains some very useful features and improvements, and a CSS selector bug fix.
After listening to a number of JavaScript developers, seeing how they work in real life and analyzing their needs, I’m happy to provide the heavily updated DOMAssistant 2.5!
