Quirksmode is So Fishing Good. I use it all the time, even sometimes as simple functional resource, not just for discrepancies between browsers. We should get that guy in here.

Large but a very interesting approach

For understanding more about unobtrusive

javascript

 , Christian Heilmann's original online course is still very useful:

Also, to balance out recommendations of Prototype, I'd also recommend JQuery - http://jquery.com/ - as another good library for small to medium effects.

Handy

  Encoder in case you are into that sort of thing...

some bells and whistles:

Ajax

ajax

 load.info/

There are some *sweet* little code snippets in that site... I've downloaded all of the JS and CSS on it and am gonna give it a look. The first thing I really liked was that in IE the "Indicator Type" drop down is captions... but in Safari it's the images themselves... a nice little yummy for people of different browsers.

I'll post if I find something really interesting... NICE ONE arms

quality stuff
can i throw mootools in the mix? its about 20% of the size of prototype and works just as well
plus you can make it smaller by customizing what you want

Talk more man

er.. well goto http://mootools

.net

 /
they got a cool thing where you "tick" what features you want and it creates the libraries you want on the fly and u download it
so if all u want is a few faders itll be a few k, or if u want all bells n whistles about 20k [but still loads smaller than prototype]
try it its cool

you ptobably know this one but:

tinyMCE a
