I recently delivered the solution to a stackoverflow question. The question was around using a select menu to display different content contained in divs using jQuery.
Below is the solution, but the only difference is that I've contained it in a Bootstrap page. The important bit are highlighted in red.

Bootstrap formhandler calling class methods with JSON returned and processed
This entry offers a number of techniques through 4 files.
$myclass->mymethod;
This approach is a quick way of utilising many classes. It does not require a .htaccess file to simplify form actions and is flexible in its handling of returned data through JSON.
Have fun.

- index.php contains a message alert which will only be displayed when there is a message to put in it. The forms use an action which contains the name of a class and method which will be used to process the results. There is also a call to custom.js
- custom.js handles the form submissions and delivers the data returned to the page. It passes the form action and field content to formhandler.php. It receives JSON which then is either passed to a message alert or a data table.
- formhandler.php receives the call from custom.js. This contains the form action and field content. It takes the form action and uses them to create calls to classes and methods named in the form action. For example and action of myclass/mymethod would be used to create calls similar to those below. The inclusion of the $_POST array allows the form field content to be passed to the class. The data returned is then passed back to custom.js for processing.
$myclass->mymethod;
- myclassname.class.php contains the example class and methods. The class receives the $_POST array and processes its content. There are 3 methods which demonstrate how to return a string, an array and an object.
This approach is a quick way of utilising many classes. It does not require a .htaccess file to simplify form actions and is flexible in its handling of returned data through JSON.
Have fun.

Display PHP code in the browser
There are 2 ways to do this I've recently discovered:
First, use the highlight_file command thus,
highlight_file('hello.php');
Second, allow .phps files. To do this (I'm using an Ubuntu Apache on local host here), go to the file /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.conf
Change the line highlighted in red to the one highlighted in blue
<FilesMatch ".+\.phps$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php-source
# Deny access to raw php sources by default
# To re-enable it's recommended to enable access to the files
# only in specific virtual host or directory
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from all
</FilesMatch>
Now, if you rename hello.php to hello.phps and display it in your browser, it will show as PHP code.
Hope this helps.

Simple Twitter Bootstrap with Knockout
The code below demonstrates some simple features of Knockout (or knockout.js) within a Twitter Bootstrap page. The funny thing is, you need jQuery for Twitter Bootstrap, so you're forced to get the best of both worlds, at the cost of your page loading speed.
The page does 3 things:
As you put text into the input box, the text is synchronised with the H1 tag
When you're happy, you can click the "I'm happy" button
Clicking the button adds the text to the list group below
I've put the Knockout items in red.

- Thumbnails of each image as the indicators.
- Hovering over images highlights the fact that you can click on them.
- Clicking on an image will display them in a modal window.

Launch images in modal windows within Twitter Bootstrap using jQuery
So the challenge has 4 parts:
Make the image appear in thumbnail size on the page before it appears in the modal.
Change the opacity of the image on hover, so that users know if they click on it something may happen.
When the image is clicked, take information from the image tag and pass it to the modal window.
Make the image take up the whole modal window when launched.
Below is how to do it. I've highlighted the code in red.

Basic HTML5 web app template which works online and offline
Here I provide the code for 3 main files in the creation of a web app. This obviously remains working when there is no internet connection, but differently since back end databases etc. would no longer be available.
In order for this to work, you should also download jQuery.
First we will need an appcache file (in this case mobile.appcache) which tells the browser what to store locally. It should look like this:
CACHE MANIFEST
# 2015-02-23 v1.0.0
index.html
html5shiv/3.7.2/html5shiv.min.js
respond/1.4.2/respond.min.js
jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js
onlineoffline.plugin.js
NETWORK:
*
Every time you make a change, update the date and version numbers in order for receivers of the web app to get the updated version.
Next we'll need a jQuery plugin (onlineoffline.plugin.js) to handle differences in web app behaviour when online or offline:
(function($)
{
$.fn.extend(
{
onlineoffline:function(options)
{
}
});
$.fn.handleOnline = function()
{
console.log('Handling online');
};
$.fn.handleOffline = function()
{
console.log('Handling offline');
};
})(jQuery);
Finally, the HTML file (index.html). This makes a reference to the appcache and detects if the web app is online or offline. I've kept the CSS in this file too in order to reduce the number of files needed in this example.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" manifest="mobile.appcache">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<title>Simple online/offline</title>
<style>
body
{
font:0.9em/1.5em Sans-serif;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello world!</h1>
<script src="jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="onlineoffline.plugin.js"></script>
<script>
setInterval(function()
{
if(navigator.onLine == true)
{
$(this).handleOnline();
}
else
{
$(this).handleOffline();
}
}, 250);
</script>
</body>
</html>
