Top 10 custom JavaScript functions of all time
“If there was ever a universal common.js shared among the entire develosphere, you’d fine these ten (plus one bonus) functions. It would be the swiss army knife no developer would go into production without. They have no doubt been tested tried and true and have proven usefulness and helpfulness to all those who’ve used them. So without further ado, here are what I believe to the top ten greatest custom JavaScript functions in use today.”

I just recently delved back into the world of web programming and have been learning the basics of javascript. These functions have given me something new to learn and study.

The list of functions include:

• addEvent()
• addLoadEvent()
• getElementByClass()
• cssQuery()
• toggle()
• insertAfter()
• inArray()
• getCookie()
• setCookie()
• deleteCookie()
• $() Prototype Dollar Function

The Comments section has numerous suggestions on ways to imporve the code given and other common functions. Check out this great list of javascript functions.
