4. JQUERY.ARBITRARY-ANCHOR.JS

With jquery.arbitrary-anchor.js , you can easily create useful and neat dynamic anchor scrolling by simply adding a jQuery/CSS selector after the hash (#) in your page’s URL. This plugin extends the normal anchor functionality, that is, an anchor tag with a name value attribute will still get scrolled to as normal. The same goes for an element with an ID which matches the hash.

5. jquery.pep.js grid

I’ve recently received some help adding in snap-to-grid functionality to my jQuery plugin: jquery.pep.js. Issue #52 had been open for far too long when a user of the plugin and gave a little insight into some code changes he had made to add in this functionality. The result is flawless.
