Recommended way of doing what exactly? You can certainly split it up into as many files that make sense. However, once you're done with development and ready for production you should definitely merge them into a single minified js file.

So right now I'm generating some simple arraylists of just strings (based on a certain set of parameters, doesn't matter). I'm wondering if there was a way to get these lists and put them and save them in some text files.

Not with just Javascript in a browser.

Pagination is generally not done client side and is done server side(in your case, with Java).

A variable declared without the var keyword is global.

Perhaps make your code > 94? It's possible the ajax return happens when it's false on unload, and since false is not the string 95, you get a background change. This is my pre-coffee first guess, so it's probably wrong. I'll look again in an hour when I wake up.

Also thank's for the reminder as to how ugly "plain" ajax code is. I don't miss writing stuff like that at all. /me gives jQuery a hug.

Yeah - I suggest using parseInt first and then if that is successful then do the comparison to your current count.

jQuery:

code:

$(".outbound").click(function()
{
    return confirm("You are leaving ... ");
}

It might be nicer to redirect the user to a intermediate page on your own site (example.com/outbound?url=gogole.com) where you show the message or use some sort of lightbox instead of the confirm dialog.

Date.parse seems to be pretty slow. Does anyone have any well-performing alternative suggestions for parsing RFC 1123 dates?

If the element you are binding the hover event to is a parent of the smaller element then you'll always be hovering the parent element even if it's inside the smaller element.

That said unless the smaller element is 100% contained (visibly on the screen) you should still use the setTimeout trick so that if the mouse goes outside the parent element's visiblity while moving between inner elements you don't lose your the popup.
