That happens because of how JavaScript treats empty arrays (which is, a lot of the, treated as a string).
So that first piece of code:

(![]+[])

Creates the string "false".
This is because when you do this:

![]

You get a boolean false, because an array is not considered false, so therefore when used with the ! (not) operator returns false. Inversely if you were to do this:

!![]

You would get a boolean true, but that's not really important.
In order to convert the boolean to a string the boolean is incremented by an array; that is the same as incrementing by an empty string. The following two lines do the same thing:

![]+[]; // "false"
![]+""; // "false"

So now you have the string "false" and need to get the "f" out of it, which is at index position 0.
Before explaining that, take the following for example:

+5; // 5
-5; // -5
-+5; // -5
+-+5; // -5
-+-5; // 5

The positive/negative symbols do pretty much what you'd expect:
- Positive plus Positive equals Positive
- Positive plus Negative equals Negative
- Negative plus Negative equals Positive

Or, in other words:
- No negative sign, or equal number of negative signs, equals Positive
- Otherwise equals Negative

What happens when you use these with an empty array?

+[]; // 0
-[]; // -0

Yes, negative zero really is a thing.

So using that, you can easily get the "f" from a string of "false":

var falseStr = ![]+[]; // "false"
var fStr = falseStr[+[]]; // "f"

// One line:
(![]+[])[+[]];

Now knowing how to do goofy shit like that, you can break that code into smaller chunks:

// Generates "f":
(![]+[])[+[]];

// Generates "a":
(![]+[])[+!+[]];

// Generates "i":
([![]]+[][[]])[+!+[]+[+[]]];

// Generates "l":
(![]+[])[!+[]+!+[]];

And it stops becoming an incomprehensible mess.
Make sense now? :)

P.S.
I don't consider this a "fail" at all; just a neat trick produced by abusing the hell out of JavaScript.

Ignoring the stupid memes this video is a pretty interesting talk on some goofy things JavaScript does (as well as Ruby).
And this post explains why JavaScript does the things that are outlined in the video.

Last night I spent over 6 hours refactoring my SimpleJS JavaScript framework.
The new source code is here and I think it's a hell of an improvement.
This is the old source code for comparison.

That took a while, but it was totally worth it. :)

Wow... You certainly have talent. I don't know how a man can have nerves to make over 1000 lines of code. Congrats!
And for what did you make that framework? For a school project or something?

1,000 lines really isn't that much. A lot of that is also the comments; there's probably only about 600 lines of actual code.
And nope it's not for school; just something I made because I don't like how complicated vanilla JavaScript is, so I wrote a framework to simplify it without adding any custom wrappers like jQuery and MooTools do.

Pretty good. Still have a lot to do though.

That's the spirit.

Going to make a little thingy now, I think I should be finished in 2 hours. Then I'll post it here.

I couldn't do better. And why does the code look similar to AS3?

To Ninogrounds:
kiwi-kiwi is right. The blue/white combination really stings the eyes. You could try the dark blue/light blue combination.

Any suggestions on how to fix this site ? It looks fine in Chrome and FF

Ahah. Definitely some weird folks out there.
And for the record, I don't know what show that is, but I saw Ricky Gervais, and Ricky Gervais is awesome.

As someone whose job it is to make websites I completely agree that IE is an absolute pile of shit, but unfortunately if you want to make websites or a living you have to learn how IE works.
I tried loading that site in IE9 and it certainly seems to be loading incorrectly; I do not know why though. Best advice I can give for writing IE compliant HTML is to treat your page like a series of boxes, and each box does not contain elements that extend its boundaries. IE doesn't like that.
