Hi, Rick. Here's a quote to my hosting news group that 'splains' what has happened since yesterday. Maybe you could comment on the latter portion if you have time. TIA.........Ron
<quote to newsgroup> It turns out that what I downloaded from jQuery ended up with a bunch of line feeds in it...my bad I'm sure. I ended up copying the jquery.js from the another site's installation and still had the same problem, but then it dawned on me that I should look to see if my editor(s) 'wrapped' the file and, sure enough, I let it get screwed up with those 'stinking' extra line feeds! <blush> To add insult to my stupidity, one copy paste from that other site wrapped the file with <pre>.......</pre> <blush> My only excuse is that, after 12 years, I'm now using linux with Bulefish and Screem editors that have 'con-foo-zed' me. >> I *really* feel stupid at this point.........Ron I'm getting too old for this......:=) Now for my 'extra' question: > ........ > var jq = jQuery.noConflict(); > jq(document).ready(function() > ....... I noticed the 'var - noConflict' line above and saw it in another site like this: var $bfa = jQuery.noConflict(); $bfa(document).ready(function(){ and in his function content "$bfa" showed up in many places like $bfa(".post img").each(function() { var maxwidth = centerwidth - 10 + 'px'; var imgwidth = $bfa(this).width(); ........... First of all, I'd seen no mention of "jQuery.noConflict()" in their docs and then seeing all those "$whatervers" all through a function's code mystified me. I'm guessing it uniquely identifies/isolates each function somehow. What is that all about and do you do that for some reason? A link somewhere that explains the above would be fine.
