Javascript Is Kinda Ugly

Working my way through web development with JavaScript + HTML + CSS.  The whole things seems rather poorly documented-- well there is plenty of documentation, its just all over the place, and of utterly random quality, not in any one central location like you can get with C++(via MSDN).

 I found an alternative language/syntax for JavaScript called coffiescript, whitespace sensitive and very concise, how Pythonesque.  I'll have to test it sometime.

 Currently I'm trying out JQuery, a JavaScript framework that supposedly eases the processes of building webpages.

For my own purposes, my running list of useful links/plugins:

Infinite Drag: just a background effect..not what i want
2 Way Infinite Drag: links here for usefulness
All open panel widget


Graphing:
jPlumb  looks real nice
dracula place with lots of links
