[jQuery] cluetip feature request: disable; clear cache
Hello, I'm enjoying the jquery cluetip plugin -- it works very nicely and does what I want it to. But I have two requests. (1) $(foo).cluetip('disable'); This would disable the cluetip on a specific element or array of elements. $(foo).cluetip('clear_cache'); This would invalidate the cluetip cache for a specific element or array of elements, so that the next time the elements were hovered their cluetip contents would be reloaded via AJAX. In the current usage, could this already be achieved by simple setting the cluetip on the same elements a second time? Or does that do nothing? Thanks! Eric
[jQuery] Missing the previous jQuery site visual style?
Hi everyone. I miss the previous visual design of the jQuery site... I was away for a few months and when I got back it looked like it had stepped a couple of years backward and taken on a very Rails-in-the- early-days look with that Trebuchet font and big empty sidebars... No offense intended to its current designer, but I really loved the openness, readability, and space efficiency of the older version. Temporary solution for those who share my dismay: this guy CSS'd up a nearly complete fix -- if you're using Firefox you can get this almost instantly here: http://userstyles.org/styles/11536 He pretty much put it right back in the earlier style, much more readable, and adds nothing to the load time since it's client-side CSS on a tiny, tiny FF plugin. Check it out! (and to John and the site's maintainers... any chance we might see a rollback of this weird move?)

[jQuery] Re: Loading help with contextmenu plugin.
Mauricio, This sounds like a good place to use the livequery plugin: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/livequery Its purpose: keeping events properly bound to elements that satisfy a selector even when the elements are loaded later, or loaded dynamically.

[jQuery] Weird Firefox error related to switching to jQuery
I'm busily switching all my page templates from Prototype to jQuery. I'm getting the following error I never saw before (seen via Firebug) on a page that has been entirely changed over to jQuery, with prototype all gone and no longer included/loaded. [Exception... "Component is not available" nsresult: "0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///H:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsSessionStore.js :: sss_saveState :: line 1753" data: no] [Break on this error] oState.session = { state: ((this._loadState == STATE_RUNNING) ? STATE_RUNNIN... What could be causing this? Is it just a Firefox bug? (FF 2.0.0.14 on winXP) I've seen only one "component is not available" error similar to this one (though not the identical error) before and it disappeared when I fixed a separate javascript error due to some mistake I had made. But this time is not so easy because I have no other errors on this particular page that I'm aware of and it is otherwise "working". Eric
[jQuery] Re: Syntax question regarding value of currrent element being clicked.
Do you understand why? It's not the event that has the value that you wish to submit. What has the needed value is the object whose "onchange" callback is currently being executed. And since we're in that callback at the moment, it just so happens that the identifier "this" refers to the callback's owner.

[jQuery] Re: how can a landing page verify that the user has logged in?
Typical behavior is for the username and password to be sent to the server for verification. What you do to accomplish this on the server side is a matter of what web development framework you are using... Ruby on Rails, for example, or Django, or a zillion other options... or something you create yourself. Yes, normally the server-side code will access a database to check that the password matches the username. And yes, most of the available web development frameworks out there rely on the concept of a "session" that stays the same for a given user, such that once a user has logged in they remain logged in, and your pages are able to easily check and verify that fact, until either the user logs out or their session "times out". So you are going to need to choose a framework to work with unless you like the idea of reinventing everything from scratch. The framework you choose should depend on what scripting language(s) you are already familiar with. There is plenty of information on these subjects out there for the searching.

[jQuery] Re: JQ Comments and Bug help
Exactly which jquery files are you using when you get these errors? Which version of jquery and which version of jquery-ui? I had several similar (though not identical) problems with ui.droppable() recently, and the solution involved matching jquery 1.2.4a with jquery-ui 1.5b4. jquery 1.2.3 caused jquery-ui 1.5b4 to throw the errors. Also, using the jquery-ui website's customized download builder fixed some dependency issues that were formerly causing "foo is not a function" errors.

[jQuery] Re: why is droppable() 's init method trying to read outerWidth() of a div?
Oh, ok. Thank you. The jQuery website gave me no idea that jquery ui 1.5b4 was dependent on jquery 1.2.4a. In fact I had no idea 1.2.4a was even available. Allright... I switched to the (nightly) 1.2.4a, and the error of course disappeared. The jqueryUI site could make it more clear that a specific jquery build is required. Also, isn't it a little strange that a beta build depends on an alpha in this case? (1.5b4 depending on 1.2.4a) ? What would I downgrade to if I wanted to run stable versions of both jquery and jquery-ui? Thanks!

[jQuery] why is droppable() 's init method trying to read outerWidth() of a div?
Take a look the following from jquery.ui-all-1.5b4.js: -- it's inside of the droppable() method's init method: 802 //Store the droppable's proportions 803 this.proportions = { width: this.element.outerWidth(), height: this.element.outerHeight() }; I have been stuck for a while on an error this causes. I am calling droppable() on a div and I get an error saying this.element.outerWidth is not a function. Of course, because elements don't have an outerWidth! The div from which I'm calling droppable() has a width, offsetWidth(), scrollWidth(), as checked with a Firebug breakpoint at the time of calling droppable(). But it naturally does not have an outerWidth(). This seems like an error in jquery-ui. But if that were true, wouldn't people have tripped over it everywhere? Therefore it makes me wonder what I am doing wrong instead. Can anyone offer some insight about this? Eric
