<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=810173414-10012007><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I think that the idea of having 0 stars is important and
I'd suggest putting it back in. For example Netflix, the first place I saw that
used this sort of thing, has a special icon for "0" (or not rating). Here's a
screenshot for perusal:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Building on the good conceptual work of Wil Stuckey for Star Ratings,
I have refactored the star rating he built.<BR><BR>Some notable changes:<BR>*
It's around 1/2 the size<BR>* I removed the option to do 0 stars, because it was
confusing and the few people I asked to quickly usability test it couldn't
figure out what it did <BR>* Selecting a number of stars prevents further
changes.<BR><BR>I reused Wil's demo page, because the API is exactly the same
(even though most of the code is rewritten). While I rewrote a lot of the code,
I entirely reused the basic concept behind the plugin, so kudos WIl! <BR><BR>You
