Great idea! I think the biggest problem for jQuery beginners is the "Using
selectors" part. So I would suggest much more examples there!

When you do something like this, you probably want everything between 2
and 5, so why not extend jQuery to something like

$("p").bt(2,5)

for between. This should mathematical be 2 < x < 5.

That, and the Internationalization of jQuery, are the two big projects
that are going to take place post-1.0. They won't be easy, but the

Re: [jQuery] jQuery and openjsan.org

2006-08-21 Thread Larry Garfield
I'm a PHP guy through and through, and hate Perl.  Am I what you're looking 
for? :-)

Seriously thought, I'd not actually heard of openjsan until this thread.  The 
problem with CPAN-like systems, though (such as PEAR, the PHP equivalent), is 
that they get big, fast.  Just a base PEAR install is huge, and includes a 
ton of test code, documentation, configs, and other things that are 
completely irrelevant to running the code.  They also really don't work in 
individual downloads.  You have to use their installer, which means pretty 
much you have to have a dedicated server that you're running things on.  You 
can set things up without it, but frankly they're all hacks that only sorta 
work.

The other catch is inter-dependency.  That means all code has to be written to 
essentially the same standard.  It also means you get a lot of code that 
requires other code that requires other code.  That's OK on a server but for 
Javascript, that becomes a TON of code you need to send to the client.  Add t 
that the fact that there are so many different common standards for JS coding 
makes the problem even worse.

Frankly, I think a better solution for jQuery is to become its own 
repository. :-)  Provide svn space for contrib modules, under a common 
MIT/GPL dual license, automate the documentation, make it easy to mix and 
match.  Right now there's just so many cool things being announced on the 
list here that I can't keep up with them, but none of it ends up on the web 
site, except maybe in the blog.  For a modular system like jQuery, a better 
way to present and advertise those contributed modules and plugins is very 
important.

Re: [jQuery] jQuery and openjsan.org

2006-08-21 Thread Blair McKenzie
It's nice to have all those libraries in one place, but without some kind of comparison or rating system its not really that much more useful than google.When I first started hunting for libraries, I was interested in their specialty/category, strengths, weaknesses, development activity, and community support (ie mailing list), bugs. And now that I've found one I like (and only one - I find code easier to manage if you stick to one flavour) I might switch - but only if I am presented with all this information in a convenient info-at-a-glance format, and can read about other people's experience with it.
Some possibilities:Less drill down. Put a description of the library on the main page with the name. Combine the file list and documentation pages (or make the file page a library documentation page)

Re: [jQuery] New Plugin: jQEm - Interact with the base 'em' unit.

2006-08-21 Thread John Resig
This is really great Dave - I've definitely needed something like this
in some of my projects. A couple quick suggestions:
- Using an event name like "fontSizeChange" may make more sense than "jqem".
- Also, it's possible to pass arguments in to an event that's been
triggered, like so:

$.event.trigger("jqem", [ "cur_val", "old_val"]);

meaning that the called function would receive:

function( eventObj, cur_val, old_val ) { ... }

Just a thought.

John -

> Cool.  I'm glad Perl is still alive.  ;-)

I'm a Perl guy too, but I wanna put in my 2 cents. ;-) I've been
following JSAN since the very beginning and love the concept, and
would love to see it grow.

> If so, I'd really like to hear your thoughts on openjsan.org and how
> we could make it better.

Some of the biggest changes that I would make:
- Feature modules prominently.
- Categorization.
- Detailed plugin descriptions (to browse by).
- Less cryptic names (e.g. DOM.Util.0.13 -> DOM Utilities)
- Detailed guide on how to get started
- Use .zip instead of .tar.gz
- Demo pages
- Talk about modules in a practical sense (e.g. This is how you make a
div slide down) as opposed to a programmatic sense (e.g. These are the
methods that you could use to make a div slide down).

This one is the hardest:
- Some way to use the modules without needing to install/setup JSAN

Essentially, you want to make the barrier to entry as low as possible,
especially for a Javascript user (who, typically speaking, is not very
technical)

Is there a reset() method on the jQuery object? I didn't see one. Also I
think you meant #commentsFormZ, it's the id of the form, right? Can you try

[jQuery] bad example on documentation page

2006-08-21 Thread abba bryant

http://john.jquery.com/jquery/docs/index.xml
If you click "B" then "background( )" the result is operating on some html
without a background set. Seeing the "" *empty* result as the result is
fairly worthless.

It might be more useful to start with a background and show the returned
results with something in them.

Just a nitpick - good docs help a ton though.

Re: [jQuery] "Erasing" contents of a form

2006-08-21 Thread Bruce MacKay


Thanks for the responses Kenton,Matt.  I've only been partially
successful however in progressing these solutions.
I have tried your solutions: The .val is partially successful in that it
erases a form element's content, but only by inserting a blank space in
its place  (e.g. $("#sComment").val(" ");).

The ID of my form is 'commentsFormZ' but I cannot get the .reset()
option to fire at all.   
What am I doing wrong?
My code (with the various attempts) is:
$.fn.ajaxSubmit = function(e) {this.submit(function(){ var params =
{}; $(this) .find("[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]'text'],
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'hidden'], [EMAIL PROTECTED]'password'], [EMAIL PROTECTED],
textarea") .filter(":enabled") .each(function() { params[
this.name || this.id || this.parentNode.name || this.parentNode.id ] =
this.value;
});$("div#indicate").show();$("div#comments3").hide();
$.post(this.getAttribute("action"), params,
function(text){

   $("div#indicate").hide();
   
$("div#comments2").html(text).fadeIn("slow");
   
$("commentsFormZ").reset();
   
$("#sComment").val(" ");
   
$("#sEmail").reset();
   
$('#hilightcomment').highlightFade({color:'yellow',speed:2000,iterator:'linear'})
    }); return false;
});}

[jQuery] New Plugin: jQEm - Interact with the base 'em' unit.

2006-08-21 Thread Dave Cardwell
Hello there, folks.

While working on the next release of jQMinMax[1] (coming soon) it became 
apparent that I'd need to be notified when the user increased or 
decreased the font size.  I can imagine there are a number of situations 
where this might come in handy, thus I give you jQEM.

The short version: it creates a 'jqem' event that is triggered globally 
whenever a change in the value of 1em in the  is detected.  This 
way, you can use jQuery's built in event (bind/unbind) functions.

There are a few more features than that, so you may want to read the 
rather hideous docs at the url below.

[1] http://davecardwell.co.uk/geekery/javascript/jquery/jqminmax/
[2] http://davecardwell.co.uk/geekery/javascript/jquery/jqem/0.1/


Any feedback, requests or suggestions would be fantastic.


Best wishes,
Dave Cardwell ~ http://davecardwell.co.uk/



P.S. Mr Edwards - I know you read this list, and just wanted to say a 
quick thank you for 'packer'.  It's a fantastic little tool.

Re: [jQuery] jQuery and openjsan.org

2006-08-21 Thread Stephen Howard
I know you wanted to hear from non-Perl programmers, but I thought  I'd 
throw this in, as I've suggested on the jQuery list in the past that 
people submit their jQuery work to JSAN (I have a couple of pre-jQuery 
items on JSAN myself)

The killer I think for JSAN is the infrastructure's immaturity. At least 
for a time, Casey seemed to be running the uploads for JSAN manually, so 
you never knew when your code would hit the repository.

Another thing I think needs improving is a browseable interface to the 
repository.  I think this is one of cpan.org's strengths that is missing 
from openjsan.  In addition to the search box (search.cpan.org), CPAN 
has browseable categories for modules.  No such interface seems to exist 
for JSAN.

People from other language backgrounds may have different objections, 
but those are what seem to be standing in the way from my point of view.

[jQuery] jQuery and openjsan.org

2006-08-21 Thread John Beppu
to John Resig:

Have you considered uploading jQuery to openjsan.org?

I ask, becuase I feel the Perl guys could use a decent foundation to
do their work on, and jQuery might fit the bill.



to everyone else:

I'm a little concerned about JSAN, because it started out as a
promising project to bring something CPAN-like for all Javascript
programmers, but it's kinda fizzled out after the initial excitement.
One serious problem in my mind is that it's mainly Perl people who
seem to care about it right now while people from other language
communities (like Ruby, Python, PHP, Java, etc.) seem to ignore it.
In the very beginning, this wasn't the case, because the guy who wrote
Prototype was willing to work with the JSAN group, and the guy who
wrote MochiKit (a python guy) actually has uploaded a few versions to
openjsan.org (although it seems like he hasn't uploaded the latest
versions).  There was an initial willingness by a diverse group to
work together, but this doesn't seem to be the case anymore, and
that's sad.

My hunch is that aspects of openjsan.org take a bit too much from the
Perl community, and for whatever reason, this is a turn-off to
non-Perl programmers.  (I think using POD for Javascript documentation
may be one of these things but it's hard for me to say)



Anyway, I'd like to hear from non-Perl programmers what they think of
openjsan.org and especially what they DO NOT like about openjsan.org
(so we'll know what to fix).

See, there's something of an issue surrounding this, though. I haven't
decided if its a bug yet, or not. For example, assume the list:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

doing :lt(5) gives you
1 2 3 4
then doing :gt(3) gives you
4

However, doing :gt(3) first, gives you:
4 5 6 7 8
then doing :lt(5) gives you
4 5 6 7

The order is definitely important. Every time you do a "filter" (like
eq or lt) it prunes the list down so all future operations must be
relative to the previous operations (If that makes any sense).

Additionally, I just recently added shortcut methods for eq/lt/gt so you can do:

$("p").lt(5).gt(3)

I moved around the examples before the release and forgot to change the

[jQuery] slideDown/Up from/to settings

2006-08-21 Thread Peter Lambert
Hi,

I am trying to create a set of tabbed panels. Whenever a tab is clicked 
instead of simply hiding one div and showing another I want the existing 
tab panel to grow or shrink to the size of the next tab panel. To do 
this I have been looking at jQuery's slideDown and slideUp methods 
however they do not facilitate a *from *or *to *setting. Has anyone 
hacked a solution to this? Or created anything similar?

I think I made it once like this (cannot find it anymore):

$("p:lt(5)").filter("p:gt(3)")... ;

Maybe this is enough:

[jQuery] Event does not always bind to object

2006-08-21 Thread Raffael Luthiger
Hi,

I have a pretty strange problem with one of my scripts. I am working on 
a little CRM and the customer overview page has six blocks looking 
something like this:
the title

familiy name
first name 


When a user clicks on the image/link the following script runs:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a#general_opener").click(function(){
if ( $("div#general div.block").is(":hidden") ) {
 $("div#general div.block").slideDown("slow");
}
else {
 $("div#general div.block").slideUp("slow");
}
 return false;
   });
... ( For each of the six blocks I have one $("a#something_opener") )
});


And now the strange part. The whole thing works for almost all customers 
except for about 5%. And it is based on the customer I open up. With 
those 5% only the first 3 blocks work and not the last three ones. With 
the last three ones it just jumps to the top again. When I look in the 
JavaScript Console (Firefox) I get the following messages:
once
---
Warning: variable h hides argument

this};

three times

Warning: reference to undefined property ret[0]
Source File: http://URL/js/jquery.js
Line: 14

I looked around in the DOM Inspector (under JavaScript Object) as well 
and I found out that the events for those three blocks are not bound to 
the object (e.g a#general_opener).

But I have no idea why this could happen. Because the only thing that 
are changing from a customer to the other are the things inside a 

Does anyone have an idea or a hint what I could check?

It turned out to be file permissions on the jq-corner.js script. Apache runs

[jQuery] Serializable Form Upload Element

2006-08-21 Thread ashutosh bijoor
HiI was looking around for a neat and generic way to handle file uploads. I found several different approaches, and it seems like this is a classic case for using ajax in any case (

http://www.codeandcoffee.com/2006/08/02/too-much-ajax/). Some of the references I found:- 
	Asynchronous file upload with AJAX progress bar in PHP (http://tomas.epineer.se/archives/3
)- AJAX File upload Progress (
http://blog.joshuaeichorn.com/archives/2005/05/01/ajax-file-upload-progress/)- Rails Upload Progress (
http://sean.treadway.info/demo/upload/)
etc.From what I saw, it seems inevitable that one needs to use an iframe to submit the upload because the browser will not allow you to access the file from the local system due to security issues. However, most of the solutions I've seen seem to be obsessed with showing the progress of the upload. I'm not so concerned about the progress. 
My logic is this - I look at forms as a mechanism of data entry. I want to be able to use the data entered by a user in the form in any way that is required by the application, with client-side and server-side logic by using a combination of _javascript_(+jquery), json and ajax.
To this extent, the form serializer (part of the jquery svn) and deserializer(part of jquery plugins) do the jobs of extracting and inserting data from HTML forms respectively. However, the file input is the only form element that breaks this model.
I want to find a way of serializing the file upload element.To achieve this, here is the approach I thought of - 

Convert all file upload elements into text elements! The text/hidden element will contain the uploaded path of the file.So suppose we were to make a plugin for this, let's say we call it 
serializeuploads. This is how I see it working:1. Start with a form, say MYFORM where some elements maybe file upload elements 2. The serializeuploads plugin initializer will convert each file upload element into a separate form by wrapping a form around it. 
3. It will also create a hidden iframe for each file upload element to which the form can be submitted.4. When you want to serialize the form, you first call the serializeuploads plugin. This will submit each of the file upload elements' forms to the respective iframes.
5. The server side script which accepts the upload can be anything... it is expected to save the file on the server and return the server path of the file.6. On completion of each submit, the plugin will insert a hidden/text element to MYFORM, whose value will be the server path of the uploaded file.
7. On completion of the submits, one can specify a callback function which is called. At this time, the normal form serializer can be used to get the path of the uploaded file.8. The plugin can also accept a max timeout, so that it will abort all uploads which do not complete in the given time, and intimate the result to the callback function.
Whoosh! Guys, is there a simpler way of doing this?RegardsAshutosh-- Reach1to1 Communications

There are two bug filed for this:
http://proj.jquery.com/dev/bugs/bug/22/
http://proj.jquery.com/dev/bugs/bug/60/

But for some reason they have been closed (even though it still occurs
in the latest SVN).

Simple test:

http://jquery.com/src/jquery-svn.js";>
Hello




The DIV 'foo' ends up as

html


You don't notice any difference in how it looks but you never know if
it may cause issues in the future - plus it makes debugging with
Firebug a bit harder (using the inspector).

Re: [jQuery] The format of xml response

2006-08-21 Thread Michael Geary
You are not sending down a Content-type: text/xml header, so the browser is
interpreting your XML as plain text.

To confirm this suspicion, change your alert to:

   alert( xml );

You want the alert to display something like [object XMLwhatever]. Instead,
it will probably display the actual XML text. This indicates that it was
interpreted as plain text. Adding the header will fix that.

[jQuery] The format of xml response

The following is the interface file:

$.post("ajax-post-handler.php",{
name: "John",
address: "123 Main St."
}, function(xml){

The following is the handling file. The above form posts to this file to
handle.

But when the alert is shown, its blank. I couldn't figure out wats
hapenning. I think the problem is reading back the  in the XML format
or the

Is the returning XML is in the correct format?
Is the $("name",xml).text() syntax correct?
Help me out plz.
