Avoiding rethinking wheels for the web ranking feature

I need to implement a rating function and would like to do it with a netflix-like star mouse.

What's my best approach? Here are some that come to mind.

  • write it manually in HTML and Javascript
  • use flash or java applet
  • use Starbox (if you've used Starbox then feel free to comment on it)
  • use another java script library (specify)

I really like the jQuery Star Rating Plugin , no obstacles, will work even if JavaScript is disabled, its based on the radio set and very easy to use.

Starbox is an easy-to-use way to do it without reinventing the wheel.

I did it before using HTML / js, but it is not very easy and gets messy.



Flash and Java applets are overkill and not worth the effort (I haven't used any "real" Java applets in years).
