[jQuery] Re: dev tip: combining JS script files
My understanding is we put script tags in the head so as to not clutter up the body DOM. I don't think it has anything to do with ready(), and I'm pretty sure ready() doesn't require script tags to be in the head... Yes, but if you put the scripts at the end of the body you don't need to use ready(), e.g. that is literally the same as using ready()... So why don't we just always put script tags at the end of the body? What's the disadvantage of that? One disadvantage is that it can lead to sloppy display behavior when the page loads. The browser will never start rendering a page while the HEAD is loading. But once it starts loading the BODY, the browser is free to render a partial page any time it feels like it. In practice, this doesn't usually happen unless something causes the page loading to stall. In particular, if there is a script tag that loads an external script, the browser is very likely to render the page using whatever it has available at that point. You can see this in action on any typical newspaper site such as www.mercurynews.com. Any time you navigate to a new page, stuff jumps around all over the place while the page loads. This is caused by the script tags that are sprinkled willy-nilly throughout the page. A script tag at the very end of the body is less likely to trigger this behavior, but it could still happen if the script modifies DOM elements earlier in the page. The browser reaches the script tag, and while it waits for the external script to load it decides to render what it has so far. Then the script loads and modifies the page, so things jump around when this happens. -Mike

[jQuery] IE takes link when firing onclick event
Hi guys,
New to jquery but really loving it so far. I've done some code that
seemed to work in all tested browsers, except IE
The code:
$(a.more).click( function(){
$(a.more).css(color,red).css(font-style,italic).css(font-
weight,bold);
$(dl.hidden).show(slow);
return false;
}
I am returning false, so the default behavior should've be nullified,
but IE still insists on taking the link to a non-existing page (and
displays an error). any help with this matter is dearly appreciated. I
will update if I find the solution. Thanks all.

Chris,
You can do one of two things:
1) When the form is submitted return the new comment. In other
words, when the new comment is posted, return what you would return
from your newcomments.php script. If you do that, your javascript
would look something like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#myForm').ajaxForm(function(newcomment) {
$('#thankyou').show('slow');
$('#newcomment').hide('fast');
$('#comments h1').after(newcomment);
});
});
Note that the callback function is passed the server response so if
your comment.php script returns the new comment everything will fall
nicely into place. This would be my preferred method since it
requires only a single round trip to the server.
2) You can use $.get like you're attempting to do now, but you need
to handle the response. Your $.get call is working, you're just not
doing anything with the response. Try something like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#myForm').ajaxForm(function() {
$('#thankyou').show('slow');
$('#newcomment').hide('fast');
$.get('newcomments.php', function(newcomment) {
$('#comments h1').after(newcomment);
});
});
});
Again, note that the callback is passed the server response (the new comment).
Hope this helps!

I'm not sure what problem you're having. The pages appear to render identically in FF and Safari... What about it do you think isn't working right? In looking through the generated source in firebug, it appears that all of your classes are getting added to the correct elements... Actually, upon closer inspection, there is a small 1px white line between the column headers in FF that isn't in Safari, but it isn't bad, and is probably the result of a rendering difference between the browsers, not a jQuery issue. --Erik On 7/16/07, Will Kelly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Not sure if this is a bug or not, but Firefox seems not to properly apply a series of class names.

$('#getStudentInfo').submit(function()

}
});
}
The html that is correctly returned, but I cannot get the new class=gao
link or the form (id=getStudentInfo) within that html block to be re-bound
for subsequent action.
As you can see, I've tried to unbind the functions before binding them

Rey, It was a great question. I know I've been in that pinch and thats why I started archiving these emails on my box as well as downloading copies. That way, if I like the plugin and the author abandons it, I still have the code to update it with. I wonder if that's worth archiving on the jQuery site somewhere. Either an FTP folder or a web folder with directory browsing turned on. Something that would just take FTP'ing the plug-in to the site. -Dan
[jQuery] Re: jQuery - form plugin
debussy007, The difference between ajaxForm and ajaxSubmit is this: ajaxForm prepares a form to be submitted using AJAX. It binds the submit event and click events and then waits for the user to submit the form. When the user clicks the submit button it invokes ajaxSubmit on your behalf. ajaxSubmit submits the form immediately. I just checked the sample pages and I'm not having any problem with them. Are you getting an alert box when you click the submit buttons? Mike Hi, I am trying to understand the difference between AjaxForm and AjaxSubmit. There are some examples Here : http://www.malsup.com/jquery/form/#sample1 With some forms. But for each form, when I click Submit, I get on a dummy.php page with some text on it. It doesn't look like an Ajax call. Has the website some problems or maybe I didn't understand the way it works ?

[jQuery] Re: Plugin Annoucements and Additions to Plugin Library
Some potential problems with the new plugin repo include: a) Spambots are gonna figure out how to invade it at some point (probably). Yeah, that's definitely a potential issue--especially with the popularity of jQuery. b) There are nearly no controls in place to keep a malicious user from spamming his plugin all over the place, e.g. by adding it to every category or uploading it via multiple names. c) The alphabetic display of plugins rewards those authors who name their plugins starting with the letter 'A', because those are the first ones which users will see when browsing the list. While overall B C are possible, I'm not it'll be a problem with the jQuery community. Issue B might crop up from time to time, but moderating will take care of that. As for Issue C, I think most developers are going to read through the list of all the plug-ins to make sure they grab the one that best fits their needs. There are lots of similar plug-ins (especially when dealing with tooltips and lightbox implementations.) Even if a developer does name their plug-in with A, it's still got to do the job correctly or people will abandon it. I guess as long as the jQuery plug-in repository is a list of open source, non-commercial plug-ins, I can't see B or C being much of an issue. -Dan
[jQuery] Re: I thought I understood threads...Works in Opera
Sorry to be replying to my own threads, but this just gets more interesting.
Apparently, in IE and Firefox, the function must run to completion before
the UI is updated with any CSS / DOM changes, but in Opera, the UI is
updated immediately upon the jQ call.
I was trying to get a 'waiting' gif to appear at the beginning of a long
function call, but found that it was never appearing. I guess I need to
display the gif in a function before the long function.

[jQuery] Re: I thought I understood threads...
OK, OK, I know - I'm having a nice conversation with myself here. Just found
this :
http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/timing-and-synchronization-in-javascript/
Timing of Rendering
Programmatic changes to the DOM or style sheet might not render immediately.
It depends on the browser.
For example, if the background color of an element is changed through the
DOM, the DOM will immediately reflect the change (and the DOM mutation event
will be dispatched immediately and synchronously), but we do not know for
certain when the browser engine will come around to actually rendering the
changes visually on the screen. While it seems that in Mozilla and Internet
Explorer the changes are postponed until the current event dispatch has
completed, these changes seem to be rendered immediately in Opera.

[jQuery] Re: IE takes link when firing onclick event
QuEz,
If you take away all your .css, does it work? Also, I am assuming it was a
copy/paste error, but you are missing an ending )
Also, you should be able to combine your css tags:
.css(
color:'red',
fontStyle:'italic',
fontWeight:'bold'
)
Let me know if this helps any.

[jQuery] Issue w/cloneNode(true) and form elements in IE 6/7...
While working on a jQuery Interface project, I came across an issue with some code using the Draggable library. It turns out in IE6 the cloneNode(true) does not properly copy the current state of all HTML elements. Checkbox, radio and select box elements all lose their current settings. I blogged some more info here: http://blog.pengoworks.com/blogger/index.cfm?action=blog:599 And here's an example: http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/bugs/cloneNode_issue.htm (The example code uses straight DOM manipulation to simplify the examples and to show it's not jQuery specific.) Anyway, I believe this issue is the root cause of some other issues that have been reported about jQuery such as Ticket #769 (Checkbox's state is erased after wrap() action (IE 6)): http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/769 I provide a solution to fix the problem in my blog (and in the example code.) Perhaps this fix should be implemented in the clone() method and other places where cloneNode(true) is used. -Dan

Using my Field plug-in (http://jquery.com/plugins/project/field) you could
do:
$(#id_cliente).setValue(2);
The big benefit to using my Field plug-in is that you can change the form
field from a select box to a checkbox or radio element and you would not
have to refactor code that grabs/sets the value of the field.

Maybe I'm giving jQuery Developers too much credit, but I would think the majority of developers are going to look for the best match for their project--not just the first match. Regardless, if the plug-in is crappy, people will go back. A possible solution to this would be to factor sorting by a custom weight which is based upon age and rating. Provide the most popular plug-ins at top by default. However, I wouldn't implement this solution until there are more ratings in the database. Plus, I know there's a bug (http://jquery.com/plugins/node/185) where rating a plug-in doesn't always register.

[jQuery] IE Problems

Internet Explorer. Right now, I am using the JQuery tabs plugin, remotely
calling a page that displays various links. These links are the links that
I am using in my code. They use another page and return the results in a
DIV.
Here is the code I am using.
$(document).ready(function() {
// add markup to container and applier click handlers to anchors
$(#racks a).click(function(e){
// send request
$.post(buildRack.php, {rack_name: $(this).html(), rack_id:
$(this).attr(id)}, function(pre) {
// format and output result
$(#ird).html(pre);
});
// stop normal link click
return false;
});
});
I hope I explained this well enough, I am new to JQuery, sorry for the
noobie. :)
Thanks!

Hi Hugh,
You might want to use the .each() method for this so you can iterate through
the links and create new elements as you go.
Something like this should work:
var $extLinks;
$(#content a).not([EMAIL PROTECTED]'mysite.com/']).each(function(index) {
if (index == 0) {
$extLinks = $('ol id=extLinks/ol');
}
var thisHref = this.href;
$('li/li').text(thisHref).appendTo($extLinks);
});
$extLinks.appendTo(#content);

Hi All-
This is a newbie designer question. I think jquery's great and I'm trying
to find more uses for it.
I've got this-

I was trying to get a line break in between each link but couldn't and I
was hoping somebody here could give me a hand.
I'm trying to learn so I'm trying to do this step-by-step. I've been
reading the doc's and see that $(a) going to pick up the anchors. I saw
.getUrlParam and tried .getUrlParam(href) but was only able to get strHref
has no properties.
It's probably obvious but what I'm trying to do is go through the content
div, collect all the external http:... addresses and put them into a ul or
ol at the bottom of the page. I just want to make it easy for people to copy
them.
Thanks and thanks for jquery. When you're doing sites by yourself it's
hard to add the kind of enhancements that jquery offers.
Thanks again,

[jQuery] Re: Problem with jQuery.fix in event model
Thank you very much, that solved the problem.
As a note, I tweaked the solution slightly and it is a bit simpler and works
just fine:
// Calculate pageX/Y if missing and clientX/Y available
if ( event.pageX == null event.clientX != null ) {
var e = document.documentElement, b = document.body;
event.pageX = event.clientX + (e e.scrollLeft || b b.scrollLeft ||
0);
event.pageY = event.clientY + (e e.scrollTop || b b.scrollTop || 0);

Next, start a page refresh and move the mouse while the page is being

An error occurs on line 1445 jquery.js, where document.body is null,

[jQuery] Re: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Two questions I had when starting with jQuery, and glancing through the API docs, I still don't see them documented (maybe in a tutorial?): (1) How do you select an element by its ID? (2) How do you select all elements given a CSS class? This leads to an interesting documentation question: How do we explain JQuery to people who don't know CSS? Part of the initial appeal of JQuery for me was exactly the use of CSS for selecting the DOM elements, with the promise that if that ever is not enough, I have much of XPath available. But a certain basic concept is just assumed at almost all levels of JQuery documentation, namely that, for example, div#myId .myClass represents all elements inside the div whose id is myId which have class myClass. The link near the beginning of the Selectors page to the Wikipedia CSS article is fine, but is easy to overlook for the user who doesn't really know what they need CSS for in the first place. I don't have any particular suggestions, but it might be worth considering the most basic of CSS primers on the Selectors page. -- Scott

I don't believe val() is 100% cross-browser compatible for select elements.
val: function( val ) {
return val == undefined ?
( this.length ? this[0].value : null ) :
this.attr( value, val );
},
The code only works if the element returns a value attribute. This might
work in most modern browsers for a select-one element, I'm not sure what the
behavior is for a select-multi element.
Also, my getValue()/setValue() methods work with checkbox and radio elements
(well, every field element--the only exception being the setValue() on
read-only elements.)
Another question (Mike, Dan?). What are the differences between form and
field plugin?
The Field plug-in is basically a companion/stand-alone to the Form plug-in.
You don't need Mike's Form plug-in, but it works great in conjunction with
Mike's code.
My plug-in is geared towards reading and manipulating the form fields
themselves. Methods such as the formHash() make it really easy to populate a
form based upon a JSON packet.
It's also the first jQuery plug-in that allowed both getting and setting the
value for all form field elements.
I'm also working on adding addition useful form-based UI methods. I just
recently added limitSelection() (allows you to limit the number of
checkbox/select elements that can be selected) and createCheckboxRange()
(allows you to [SHIFT]+click to highlight a range of checkbox elements.)

But when my test engineers test the system with an old machine, which CPU less than 1Gz, blockUI will make the CPU 100% and need 2-5 seconds to wait even which real operation might only take less than 1 second. I mean there still have a lot of old machine there, and we still need consider them. What do you say? Thanks, Jiming Ce message Envoi est certifié sans virus connu. Analyse effectuée par AVG.

[jQuery] Re: selectbox: change selected item
Klaus,
As Dan pointed out, his Field plugin is very adept at getting, setting
and otherwise manipulating data for field elements and Dan is adding
new capabilities regularly. The Form plugin is mostly geared at
providing ajax capabilities for the submit process. It also provides
methods for getting and serializing field values, but there is no
complementary setting or deserialization capabilities at this time.

Using my Field plug-in (http://jquery.com/plugins/project/field) you
could
do:

The big benefit to using my Field plug-in is that you can change the form
field from a select box to a checkbox or radio element and you would not
have to refactor code that grabs/sets the value of the field.
-Dan
Dan, that truly is an advantage. But I was of the opinion, that val()
works with selects and radios as well, thus the refactoring possibility
exists for core jQuery as well (of course I don't want people to stay
away from your plugin by saying that).
I don't believe val() is 100% cross-browser compatible for select elements.
val: function( val ) {
return val == undefined ?
( this.length ? this[0].value : null ) :
this.attr( value, val );
},
The code only works if the element returns a value attribute. This might
work in most modern browsers for a select-one element, I'm not sure what the
behavior is for a select-multi element.
Also, my getValue()/setValue() methods work with checkbox and radio elements
(well, every field element--the only exception being the setValue() on
read-only elements.)
Another question (Mike, Dan?). What are the differences between form and
field plugin?
The Field plug-in is basically a companion/stand-alone to the Form plug-in.
You don't need Mike's Form plug-in, but it works great in conjunction with
Mike's code.
My plug-in is geared towards reading and manipulating the form fields
themselves. Methods such as the formHash() make it really easy to populate a
form based upon a JSON packet.
It's also the first jQuery plug-in that allowed both getting and setting the
value for all form field elements.
I'm also working on adding addition useful form-based UI methods. I just
recently added limitSelection() (allows you to limit the number of
checkbox/select elements that can be selected) and createCheckboxRange()
(allows you to [SHIFT]+click to highlight a range of checkbox elements.)

[jQuery] Re: ANNOUNCE: tablesorter 2.0 beta released!
Immediately after sending the above I think I realized what the problem
is.
Each of the numeric values in that first column is wrapped in a/a
and you're probably sorting on that. Do I need to write a parser? If so,
what might it be?
This should work:
$.tablesorter.addParser({
id: 'genericLink',
is: function(s) {
var exp = /a[^]*(.*)\/a/.test(s.toLowerCase());
if(exp) this.type = (/a[^]*(\d+)\/a/.test(s)) ? 'numeric' :
'text';
return exp;
},
format: function(s) {
var val = s.toLowerCase().match(/a[^]*(.*)\/a/)[1];
// format your data for normalization
return (this.type == 'text') ? $.trim(val) :
$.tablesorter.formatFloat(val);
},
type: 'text'
});
It works for a element with text and numeric values.

[jQuery] Form in Thickbox window
I have a form with JavaScript validation. It is displayed in a Thickbox window and pulled from an inline div (initially hidden). For some reason, the JS form validation doesn't work. I believe it is because the ID or NAME attribute of the form elements are being changed somehow to create the Thickbox window? I went through Thickbox but couldn't find anything like that. Does it possibly duplicate the form elements and so the JS validation is looking at the original input ID? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Form-in-Thickbox-window-tf4098540s15494.html#a11654694 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[jQuery] Announce: filemanager-like-view plugin (BogoFolders)
Hi, all! This morning i put together a plugin which provides a basic filemanager-like view, called BogoFolders: http://wanderinghorse.net/computing/javascript/jquery/bogofolders/ In short, it uses two HTML elements: one holds a list of icons/label (e.g., the file list) and one holds the content of the currently- selected entry from the file list. It can be considered Beta software. While there are still a number of significant missing features and a minor bug or two, it basically works as advertised. For the full list of known bugs and (potential) TODOs, see the docs in the uncompressed source file. It was tested in FF 2.x and Konqueror 3.5.7 (in Konqi, *some* icons require two clicks to activate them - no idea why). If anyone out there has MSIE (anyone? anyone? Bueller?), i would love to know if it works (or not) in IE. Same for Opera and Safari, though i must admit i honestly don't give much of a hoot if it doesn't work in those browsers. :D Happy hacking!
[jQuery] Re: Behavior Problem
Behavior binds the events (in this case a click event) for you and listens
for major DOM modifications (such as adding an element) and binds the
events to new elements that match the selector. In your example the only
thing that changes is the class name. But lets say you made a major DOM
modification too. Behavior would match the new class and bind the 'selected'
click event but the previous event would still be bound also.
The example you provide would be best written without using behavior at all.
However this is an interesting use-case and I would like to explore it in
more detail. Would you mind providing a complete example for me to dig
through?
Here is the example written without the use of behavior which should give
you better performance and results.
$('.codeNumbersRow, .codeNumbersRowSelected').bind('click', function(event)
{
var lineNum = $(this).attr('id').substring(4);
$(this).toggleClass('codeNumbersRow').toggleClass('codeNumbersRowSelected');
$('#code'+lineNum).toggleClass('codeRow').toggleClass('codeRowSelected');
alert($(this).attr('class'));
});

You might want to use the .each() method for this so you can

Something like this should work:
var $extLinks;
$(#content a).not([EMAIL PROTECTED]'mysite.com/']).each(function(index) {

I think what is probably happening is that the two queued effects
(animate and fadeIn) haven't started at the point you try to set focus
on the element. If you wanted height and opacity simultaneously then
you should try to do them together in a single animate. Then do
the .focus() in a callback function on the animate. Something like
this:
$(#advsect)
.removeClass(hidden)
.css({opacity: 0})
.animate({height:200, opacity:1}, 1000, function(){
this.focus();
});
BTW, If I add 'alert(hello world);' anywhere between the { and } of
the #advtab.mousedown above I don't get a warning.
That probably gives it time to do the animation before it sets focus.

Very cool idea. Anything to get rid of confirmation dialogs! I see one problem: Many people habitually double-click everything - links, buttons, you name it. If you double-click the button, the second click ends up confirming it. You could avoid this by disabling the button for a second with a Wait label on it, and then re-enabling it with the confirm label. That might be a little annoying, but probably not too bad, and it would keep the double-clickers out of trouble. -Mike From: Stephan Beal Confirmer is a plugin for jQuery which implements a novel approach to the process of confirming an action.

This allows a much cleaner solution, though. :D

There is/was some mail client (can't remember which) which uses/used a similar idea when you move a mail to the trash. After clicking the Delete button to move a mail to the Trashcan, the button changes to Undo Delete until you take another action, at which point it reverts back to a Delete button. If you click Undo before doing anything else then you can undo the delete. i never actually used the app, but read about that feature in some UI design article a few years ago. I see one problem: Many people habitually double-click everything - links, buttons, you name it. If you double-click the button, the second click ends up confirming it. That's an interesting point. i've been using KDE in single-click mode for many years, so i haven't actually double-clicked anything since i had (was forced) to use Windows some time in 2006... thus i didn't consider the posibility that so many people double-click out of habit. Once you get used to single-clicking everything, double-clicking becomes tedious and seems downright barbaric. Now that i think about it, i'm constantly saying to my g/f, don't DOUBLE-click those links! That causes two hits on the server! as if she might someday magically understand what i mean by that. :/ You could avoid this by disabling the button for a second with a Wait label on it, and then re-enabling it with the confirm label. That might be a little annoying, but probably not too bad, and it would keep the double-clickers out of trouble. That's a very good idea. A 500ms wait shouldn't be a big deal. i'll take a look at how that might be made configurable. The only potential problem i can think of with that is that it might require, as a target, an element for which a disabled state is possible (e.g. a button), whereas the current implementation can be applied to other elements (in theory, any elements for which click() and html() are valid).
[jQuery] Re: Announce: Confirmer plugin
Cool idea. Just add support for a class that's being added to the button when in 'confirm' mode - otherwise there is no way to visually highlight this new UI approach for the user ; ). -- Felix -- My Blog: http://www.thinkingphp.org My Business: http://www.fg-webdesign.de Stephan Beal wrote: Hi again, all! Confirmer is a plugin for jQuery which implements a novel approach to the process of confirming an action. Normally this is achieved via a yes/no dialog box or a button with a confirm checkbox next to it. The Confirmer plugin instead sets up a single button which changes to a confirm the action state if it is clicked one time. If the button is clicked again within a specified time then the action is confirmed, otherwise it times out and returns to its initial state. http://wanderinghorse.net/computing/javascript/jquery/confirmer/ Includes a live demo link. Happy hacking!
[jQuery] Resizable textarea
Does anyone could combine a textarea with a Drag and Resize plugin to create a Resizable Textarea. (A feature like this is available in TinyMCE). Thanks. Mark

My initial thought was to use an onclick callback so the user could modify the element using an arbitrary animation, but you're right - adding a class is a good generic solution without the usage overhead of a callback. i've added this to the TODO list. Thanks :).
[jQuery] Re: Announce: Confirmer plugin
Stephan, In the demo, once i click, the action gets cancelled too quickly before i understand that i need to click it again... Also, i guess it is pretty difficult to explain this to the user... There should be some other way, instead of just time before which the event is cancelled. Just thinking out loud, maybe something like clicking outside the button cancels it... i dont know I know, we can increase the timing there, but still, i am not sure if the timing approach is the best for confirm kinda dialog. For undo style dialogs that probably is a better idea... Just something to ponder... -GTG On 7/17/07, Stephan Beal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Jul 18, 12:47 am, Felix Geisendörfer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Cool idea.

[jQuery] Re: Announce: Confirmer plugin
Just minutes after typing the email for u, i realized that i had seen a pretty cool site from which your plugin can gather some inspiration. This site allows you to completely interact with any UI without any clicks at all. Along similar lines, once a user clicks the button, an extention slides out, asking to confirm, and if you click that extention, you got your confirmation. Oops, i almost forgot the link - http://www.dontclick.it/ -GTG On 7/17/07, Stephan Beal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Jul 18, 1:43 am, Ganeshji Marwaha [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In the demo, once i click, the action gets cancelled too quickly before i understand that i need to click it again... Also, i guess it is pretty difficult to explain this to the user... You're right - i had the timeout delay set very low because when testing it it gets really annoying to wait a full 3 seconds (the default timeout period). i've re-set it to 3000ms. There should be some other way, instead of just time before which the event is cancelled. That would involve adding another UI element, which is part of what i was trying to avoid. Any ideas which don't involve an extra UI element or dialog? Just thinking out loud, maybe something like clicking outside the button cancels it... i dont know That could have weird semantics in some use cases: Let's say i have a Delete Object button which performs the delete UNLESS i confirm the action (that is, it's usage is backwards - i'm going to delete unless you cancel the deletion by clicking the confirm button). Granted, that would be an unusual use case, but users often come up with weird things to do. Stealing a click like that could lead to other confusion, as the widget the user actually clicked on (a hyperlink, form control, or other button) doesn't get the click. We might be able to pass on the click by figuring out what the coordinates are, but that gets very ugly very quickly. Also, i'm not 100% sure that i could get the click-anywhere event handling working cross-browser. i only have Linux machines, so i can't test on the most popular (MSIE) and most esoteric (Safari) browsers. A quick look at the subject lines of the last 100 posts in this forum suggest that about 20-30% of the users have some sort of problem which applies on to MSIE, and i don't want to do anything in jQuery which is so tricky that the world's most popular browser cannot handle it. I know, we can increase the timing there, but still, i am not sure if the timing approach is the best for confirm kinda dialog. For undo style dialogs that probably is a better idea... Just something to ponder... In principal i agree with what you're saying, but i don't think the click-anywhere-else is the proper solution, and i don't have any ideas which don't involve an extra UI element or dialog box. i'm open to suggestions. Keep in mind that this particular plugin is intended to be light-weight and free of dependencies on other plugins (e.g. Dimensions would be useful for the click-anywhere support, i think).
