Re: [jQuery] select links not children of li

2007-01-09 Thread Andy Matthews 
Ooooh...

I think I see now. You're saying that once I get a jQuery object, I can
filter out children of that object but not parents?

Can you give me a quick example Jörn?

Then the API is wrong.

filter() (and it's inversion, not()), can only handle expressions down the
tree, not upwards. In other words: It can only check for attributes or child
elements, but has no idea of the context the element is in.

it should probably be "return this.set", not "return jQuery.set", if i'm 
right?..

Re: [jQuery] select links not children of li

2007-01-08 Thread Andy Matthews 
Then I guess I'm not understanding what a filter is then. The API for not()
says this:
 
"Removes the specified Element from the set of matched elements."
 
The API for filter() says this:
 
"Removes all elements from the set of matched elements that do not match the
specified expression."
 
That seems to me like it should work.
 
$('a') // select all a elements
$('a').not('li a') // that are not children of an LI tag

Re: [jQuery] select links not children of li

2007-01-08 Thread Yehuda Katz 

You could do something like this:

$.fn.notFind = function(obj) {
 if(typeof obj == "string") return $.map(this, function(i) { return
$(obj).index(i) == -1 ? i : null  })
 else if(obj.jquery) return $.map(obj, function(i) { return obj.index(i) ==
-1 ? i : null  })
}

then you could do $("a").notFind("li a")

.not(n) only works when n is a filter, like .not(".absolute") or
.not(":visible")... it can not be used to test arbitrary expressions.

On this code:

a link inside an li tag
and another


and finally another link at the bottom

It correctly removes the bottom and top links, but it also removes the two
links found within LI tags, which from the way I read the API it should
not.

Re: [jQuery] select links not children of li

2007-01-08 Thread Andy Matthews 
Why doesn't this work:

$('a').not('li a').click( function() {
$(this).remove();
return false;
}); 

On this code:
this is a link


a link inside an li tag
and another


and finally another link at the bottom

It correctly removes the bottom and top links, but it also removes the two
links found within LI tags, which from the way I read the API it should not.

You'd use a custom filter:

$("a").filter(function(elem){ return $(elem).parent("li").length == 0; })

Should be:

$('a').not('li a');
