A modular, jQuery compatible, ultra light-weight JavaScript micro-library for modern browsers

Hi there 👋

I am Stefan Gabos, a web developer working from Bucharest, Romania. I'm half Hungarian, stubborn, articulate, and slightly afraid of women.

I started coding when I was around 14 (that's way back in 1994), and I am extremely passionate about it. I started coding in BASIC and then went on with Assembler and Turbo Pascal. In 1997 I started developing commercial applications using Microsoft Access. Since 2001 I'm developing exclusively for the web using PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

I am an incurable workaholic and a perfectionist. I work with PHP, MySQL, HTML and CSS and JavaScript and have been using these things since back when GeoCities was the most visited website on the Internet and the <blink> tag was cool. I am among the 6 people in the world who were never afraid of Internet Explorer 6.

I develop rock-solid PHP libraries and super-lightweight, highly optimized, bad-ass jQuery plugins and open-source them because I am a web developer even when I'm not at work.

When working, I listen to massive amounts of music – alternative rock, in general. When I am not working (it sometimes happens), I enjoy playing the guitar, sleeping, cooking, watching Formula One or a good movie.

zebrajs's Issues

ajax POST wrong address

Hi,
Thanks for sharing this beautiful and light library!
I'm triyng to send a POST request with ajax, but it seems something goes wrong.

function send(){
var address = 'http://ip/path/thepage.php?a=b';
$.ajax({
    url: address,
     method: 'POST',
     data: {
         a:b,
         bar: 'bax'
     }
 });

looking at console:

zebra.js:1 POST http://ip/path/[object%20Object] net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

the page has been replaced by this [object%20Object], or am I missing something?
Thanks, BR

$.fn.data uses private prop zjs and not domelement.dataset

<div id="Hello" data-name="World"></div>

  $("#Hello").data("name") == undefined

should be

  $("#Hello").data("name") == "World"

however, this works, 

  $("#Hello")[0].dataset["name"] == "World"

ps. zebrajs is one of the best post-jquery frameworks

Customised build error

Hi - love zebra, just what I'm looking for!

There is a bug in the selector regex in the customised build version only:
if (selector.match(/^\#[^\s]+$/)) elements.push(parent.getElementById(selector.substr(1)));

in the customiser, this gets generated as:
t.match(/^#[^s]+$/))

the s needs escaping:
t.match(/^#[^\s]+$/))

Interestingly, the full minified version doesn't have this bug!

Thanks, keep up the good work.
