A List Apart: Articles: Test-Driven Progressive Enhancement
Progressive enhancement has become an established best-practice approach to standards-based development. By starting with clean, semantic HTML, and layering enhancements using JavaScript and CSS, we attempt to create a usable experience for everyone: less sophisticated devices and browsers get a simpler but completely functional experience, while more capable ones get the bells and whistles.

Julien Lecomte’s Blog » Building Web Applications With Apache Ant
Modern web applications are large and complicated pieces of engineering, using many different technologies, sometimes deployed on hundreds (or even thousands) of servers throughout the world, and used by people from dozens of locales. Such applications cannot efficiently be developed without relying on a solid build process to do all the dirty and repetitive work of reliably putting all the pieces together.

Ext JS - Blog
If you are building a large application, don’t try to use Ext to decorate an existing app via “unobtrusive JavaScript” or build an app half with conventional construction and half with Ext. Instead, embrace Ext as a framework and start from scratch with something like a Viewport, and build components on top of that foundation.

Developing an accessible slider | Filament Group, Inc.
The solution we devised is based on the core principle of progressive enhancement: start with basic, functional markup and then layer on complexity, if supported. In most cases, coding for progressive enhancement allows us to build a single code base for both the basic and enhanced versions; we then apply additional CSS and Javascript to create the richer experience for capable browsers. But when we're developing the UI for a web application and creating widgets that capture data, we're often starting with form element markup that doesn't readily cooperate with CSS, or that doesn't have all the moving pieces necessary to create a more complex widget.

Software As She’s Developed » Blog Archive » Cross-Domain Communication with IFrames
This article explains iframe-to-iframe communication, when the iframes come from different domains. That you can do this effectively is a relatively recent discovery AFAICT, already used in production by Google, Facebook, and others, and has powerful implications for the future of Ajax, mashups, and widgets/gadgets. I’ve been investigating the technique and working some demos, introduced in the article.
