[jQuery] Re: [autocomplete] Repeated AJAX search when selecting a returned value
No, you aren't doing anything wrong. While the implementation may be
less then optimal, the additional request is by design. It ensures
that the selected value really is a valid match.
If you consider that a bug, please file a ticket:

[jQuery] Autorefreshing DIV
Good morning all, I have a requirement to automaticly refresh a DIV with some content from another URL every couple of seconds and was hoping to get your opinions on how this is best handled. For instance, I have a div which looks like this: I dont need a full blown AJAX call as I simply want to fill this div with the content from a remote file every few seconds, for instance. / some_folder/my_div_content.html. I've currently got a working Spry (sorry for swearing) example on the page but as part of our move over to jQuery (woohoo) I'm looking for your thoughts on how best to achieve this!?! Many thanks for your thoughts guys, Robert
[jQuery] Tabs ui links
Hi everyone, I am using jQuery UI tabs version 3.0. I am calling the tabs content via Ajax, but the links inside the tabs don't open inside the tabs, instead they load into a new page. Is there any way to make my links load via Ajax into the current tab? Thanks, Daniel
[jQuery] Plugin developement
Hi @ all,
i have a problem with the understanding of public methods of an
plugin. Specialy how to create and link them to the plugin.
For example:
;(function($)
{
$.fn.pluginname = function(options)
{
var _options = $.extend(
{
label: "data",
debug : false
}, options || {});
return this.each(function()
{
// this works, of course
_doSomethingPrivate();
// this too
var data = _options.label;
});
// private method
function _doSomethingPrivate()
{
}
};
// public method
$.fn.pluginname.doSomethingPublic = function()
{
// this won't work
_doSomethingPrivate();
// this is not accessible either
var data = _options.label;
}
})(jQuery);
Obviously the above code won't work. I've tried several things to get
this working, but had no success.
So please, can somebody explain me this or point me into the right
direction.
If this question was aked before (and i'm somehow sure of this, but
had not found something jet) please let me know the Url.
Sorry for my english, i'm not a native speaker of this language.
Regards
Martin
[jQuery] enable/disable to text inputs with checkbox
Good afternoon guys, I'm pretty much a jQuery novice and I'm looking for your advice on how to achieve this task. I have two input fields which I want to be disabled by default, with a checkbox which is checked. Then, if a user unchecks the checkbox it will enable the two fields for them to enter data in. In addition to this, if they enter information into the two fields and then recheck the box, I would like it to clear any values they entered and disable them again. Can anyone offer any pointers or code for this? Many thanks guys, Robert
[jQuery] Start page load with collapsed DIV
Hi, Is it possible to have a div collapsed at/before page load so I can neatly unfold it on page load? Currently before my form's submit, I slideToggle the result container, add some "loading" text to it, slideToggle it again and submit the form. All smooth and quick. Now when the page comes back it would be neat if I could start with the same situation as before the submit so the animation seems complete. Any suggestions?
[jQuery] No response with jQuery Form Plugin in Opera
I have a form, that uploads a file. It is initialized by the following
code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#image_upload_button').click(function() {
$('#imageform_step1').ajaxSubmit({
beforeSubmit: function(formData, jqForm, options)
{ alert('sending'); },
success: function(responseText, statusText)
{ alert(responseText); },
dataType: 'html'
});
}
return false;
});
}
And the form is simple:
Upload image
The problem is that in Opera from 9.27 up to the last available stable
version success event never comes.
In all other browsers (ranging from ie6 and up to firefox 3 and
safari) everything is ok.
Version of jQuery is 1.2.6, jQuery form plugin is 2.12.
[jQuery] Sorting mixed data
Hi all, Currently i am working on tablesorter plugin with jqery to sort column values in a table. My problem is when there is mixed data in a column like some numbers and "-" (when there is no data to display) its sorting the digits treating as string. e.g. in a column if the values are 7, 12, 9, 15, - then it treats 9 as a highest value. When i sort it it arranges like 9,7,15, 12, -. Thanks, Swaroop

here is the final tweak,
(after adding this modified find method)
query = (this.prevObject && this.prevObject.query) || this[0];
I strongly believe that such property should be added to the main
distro of jQuery.
After all, the idea of find-and-modify approach - one of jQuery
fundamentals.

[jQuery] Nested Selectors
Hi Guys,
Just wondering how many times you can nest selector functions like
parent, not, has, etc
I tried the following...
$
(".someDiv .someSpan:parent(:has(input:checked))").addClass("hasSelectedCB");
and
$
(".someDiv
.someSpan:parent(:has(input:not(:checked)))").addClass("notSelectedCB");
The first worked, the second returns zero items.
Anyone know if there is a limit to nesting these selectors or Is there
a better way I should be doing this?
[jQuery] Question about the new jQuery website
Hello all,
About the new jQuery website, you noticed that it has 3 blue links:
- Lightweight Footprint
- CSS3 Compliant
- Cross-browser
When you hover, it displays a box that stays above the link. I was
looking into the code when I found this:
//cta tooltips
if($.browser.msie){
$('div.jq-checkpointSubhead').hide();
$('#jq-intro li').hover(
function(){$(this).find('div.jq-checkpointSubhead').fadeIn(500);},
function(){$(this).find('div.jq-checkpointSubhead').fadeOut(500);}
);
}else{
$('div.jq-checkpointSubhead').hide().css({'opacity': 0.0001,
'display': 'block'});
$('#jq-intro li').hover(
function(){$(this).find('div.jq-checkpointSubhead').fadeTo(500,
0.);},
function(){$(this).find('div.jq-checkpointSubhead').fadeTo(500,
0.0001);}
);
}
Now, my question is: why they used a $.browser.msie detection to make
the event different in IE? Why not use the same code for all browsers?
Is there a bug in fadeIn/fadeOut, or maybe fadeTo?
[jQuery] Access Ajax content with jquery DOM

[jQuery] XML manipulation
Dear all,
is that possible to get a nodevalue including full tags , not merely
text..
eg, I have the following xml data,
-
empire burlesque
bob dylan
usa
columbia
1985
-
and if there any way by jQuery, once I input $
(myXML).find("cd").toString(), it returns
-
empire burlesque
bob dylan
usa
columbia
1985
-
cause $(myXML).find("cd").text() only returns below text value..
-
empire burlesque, bob dylan, usa, columbia, 1985
-
best regards,
thx
[jQuery] Re: best techniques to optimize loading of multiple libraries?
Thanks a million Mike!
I hated that code but wasn't sure how to make it better... :)
So just to clear things up, you prefer using document.write() to
insert tags instead of appending the elements to the DOM:
var finan = document.createElement('script');
finan.type = 'text/javascript';
finan.src = 'http://www.mydomain.com/js/mts_finan.js';
head.appendChild(finan);
i guess its more efficient because you don't have to access the
document object, but any other particular reasons?
Awesome, one huge problem out of the way!
We're currently at a point where our server isn't exactly being
overloaded so i think its safe to host jquery.min on google code and
the plugin (yet to be minified) and custom code possibly combined in 1
file, since there won't be a lot of custom code to begin with.
Also, to satisfy your curiosity, the whole purpose of using the
mts_load.js function is because this code is a part of a banner we're
planning to distribute and host in numerous websites, so a lot of them
won't want scripts other than their own embedded directly, so we found
that calling one simple function (mts_load) that would to all the
dirty work was acceptable with them :)
