[jQuery] Re: Simple Selector Question -- Context
Liam,
Right, but that defeats the point of "caching" the jQuery object that
was created by:
var pError = $('p.error');
Since I'm just calling it again with a different selector, namely,
the :visible one.

[jQuery] Re: Simple Selector Question -- Context
Or pError.filter(':visible').
By using 'pError' as a context, you are looking for it's children, not
the elements themselves.

[jQuery] Re: Simple Selector Question -- Context
it would be this
$('p.error:visible')

var pError = $('p.error');
Then I can do the following with no problem:
pError.text('lorem");
Yet, I want to check for the paragraphs that have the class "error"
that are visible, I would think it is something like this:
var visibleError = $(':visible', pError);
However, this fails.
Is this because the visible selector is different in creating the
wrapped set of paragraph tags with the class error?
What is the proper way of using the context of pError with the visible
selector?
Thanks!
[jQuery] Re: Simple selector question
Ah, got it.
I tripped myself up again, because on my test page, all of the tables were
collapsed.
Thanks for following up on this. You probably saved me a bunch of
troubleshooting about a month or two from now

Hi Geoff,
that's fine if you want to *set* the borderCollapse property to "collapse"
for all tables. But if you are trying to select them, using .each() with an
if statement inside or Brandon's .filter() suggestion would be want you
need.

How would one select all tables in a document that have the css property
border-collapse set to collapse?
My goal is to make a work around for a FF bug
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244135) where borders
disappear sometimes. I am hoping for find all tables with
border-collapse=collapse, set them to separate then set them back to
collapse again.
Thanks

[jQuery] Re: Simple selector question
You could also use filter to get a jQuery object of the tables that
have borderCollapse == collapse.
var $tables = $('table').filter(function() {
return $(this).css('borderCollapse') == 'collapse';
});
Now you can run any jQuery methods you might need on this result set.
That is if you need to use this group of tables again later.

Hi Geoff,
You should be able to loop through he tables with .each() and see if they
have the css property border-collpase set to "collapse" and if so, do
something. The following should work -- inside a $(document).ready(), of
course:
$('table').each(function() {
if ($(this).css('borderCollapse') == 'collapse') {
//do your magic
};
});

$('table').attr('css','border-collapse')
Maybe?
