Re: [jQuery] New Forums
A little quibble I'd like to add is that, as a plugin developer who has been relying on filtering incoming emails to support the plugins, now I have no way to easily do so, since the forums can't email me everything that's happening. I think a workaround is being instated, but I'm not sure. I've also tried to reset my pw at the forums two times and each time it emails me the password confirm link and takes me right back to the beginning, so I have no idea how to actually confirm my registration.

Re: [jQuery] Complicated Question
This may or may not help you, but often in situations like this what I
do is use .closest() to get the id that I need for the edited record,
like this:
ul id=forms
li id=r_123 class=recordyour form gets injected here/li
li id=r_456 class=recordyour form gets injected here/li
/ul
assuming each form has it's own submit button, you could use event
delegation to handle the click and get the record id:
$('#forms').click(function(){ // create click handler at UL level
var $this = $(this);
if( $this.is('submit') ){ // check to see if a submit button was clicked
var recordId = $this.closest('.record')[0].id.split('_')[1], //
get the recordId
data = $this.closest('form').serialize();
// do some stuff with your recordId and serialized data
return false; // to prevent the submit from actually submitting,
assuming you're handling the submit via ajax
}
});
Maybe that'll give you some ideas. If you can, use a 'button' instead of
a 'submit' button type and remove the return false; from the example.

I have sets of records on a page each has an edit link, clicking the link
loads an edit form into the record the user wants to edit, so a user can
click edit beside every link creating an unknown number of forms on the

li id=r_456 user records edit /li
li id=r_789 user records edit /li
Each form loaded into the reords li has its own unique id so submitting the
form is fine my problem is that its only submitting to the record / form
that opens last. So if the user clickes edit, edit , edit for each of the
example records above its only submitting to the last record.
I know where the problem is, I just don't now how to fix it. When the user
clicks edit the js gets the variable from the newly loaded form_id and
that gets passed in the uRec(form_id); saying to edit this form so as
soon as the user clicks edit again the first form_id is gone and replaced
with the newly opened form. Any ideas where I am going wrong here? I cant
change the idea to have only 1 form at a time open setup. If I could add a
bind sumbit to the script to grab the form_id of what was just submitted
then run the function i think that would do the trick. Pretty new at this
and not sure where I would go about adding the bind submit. Something like:
var form_id = '#?php echo $form_id ?';
$(form_id).bind(submit, uRec(form_id) { return false; }
My script onthe page with all the records is :
script type=text/javascript
var form_id = '#?php echo $form_id ?';
uRec(form_id);
/script
My external js:
function uRec(selector){
var $form = $(selector);
$form.submit( function() {
var data = $(form_id).serialize();
var form_url = $(form_id).attr('action');
var form_target = form_url.substr(1).replace( new RegExp( / ,g), _ );

Re: [jQuery] Complicated Question
If uRec is still like it was before:
function uRec(selector){
var $form = $(selector);
in the example below you're passing it an id, so try:
var $form = $('#' + selector);
I was suggesting changing the button type from submit to button, yes.
It's no big deal, but at least it will prevent inadvertent submits while
you're working things out.

My form submit is a button type = submit. Is that what you were saying to

Re: [jQuery] Complicated Question
If you're rendering the button on-the-fly (as part of your form) be sure
to either a) hook up that button click handler after the button is
rendered or b) use the event delegation approach I showed in my example.
It sounds like your click is not firing now, probably because the click
isn't actually getting bound to the button.

Re: [jQuery] Listmenu Question: Number of returned lines...
Each browser performs differently, because of how the plugin takes the original set of DOM nodes (list items, usually) and moves them around in the DOM. Basically, IE6 sux wind, but IE7+ is OK. Safari and Chrome seemed to be the fastest in my not-so-scientific tests. Firefox 3+ was OK. I didn't try it with 1500 items. I think the most I tested was around 400. If you have the 1500 items already getting rendered, it shouldn't be too hard to plug it in and see what happens. I suspect it might take a noticeable while to load. I've thought about some alternate approaches for loading large sets of items or making it easy to show a loading message (at worst), but haven't set down to code any of them yet. You might want to experiment by capturing the HTML from the plugin demo page and adding your items to one of the demos. If your items aren't changing often, there might be a way to dump out the generated HTML and reuse that as static HTML, but it'd take some chopping on the plugin to get rid of the stuff that creates the HTML. If you don't need to use the includeOther:true option, you could prefix the items you want to exclude with some text other than A-Z and 0-9. - Jack Workingman wrote: Is there a limit to the number of lines that the menu can handle. Meaning if I give it 1500 or so names of products that I would like it to filter and display under the associated letter or number.

[jQuery] Re: keeping table header fix
Hmm, I gave this a try. Setting height stretches the table rows out
vertically if there are less records than the height. I tried putting a
fixed height div around the table and not setting a height on the tbody,
but then the tbody overflow-y never kicks in. Hmm.
Also, if I set the height of the tbody and the overflow-y does kick in,
then the scrollbar eats horizontal space in the rightmost col, which
means that I need to style that col to allow for it. Either way: if the
scrollbar were to show outside the table I'd need to allow room for it,
but just bringing it up as a caveat.
I know this issue has been tackled various ways in table plugins, but I
don't think I've seen a plugin made specifically just for show/hiding a
scrollbar and working around some of these issues. Anyone?
Thanks,
Jack

You might be able to use the show, hide and destroy methods here to make sticky tooltips: http://craigsworks.com/projects/qtip/docs/api/ but I don't think there's support for dragging. I used this library recently and found it to be solid across browsers, FYI. - Jack rvdb wrote: Hi, I'm trying to find a tooltip solution that allows for the display of HTML elements as tooltips, with following specific behaviours: -tooltips popup on mouseover; disappear on mouseout -tooltips can be made sticky + draggable on click, and can be closed with a 'close' link The first requirement is met in most tooltip libraries: only one tooltip is shown at a time, content can be picked up from other HTML elements on the page, and tooltips disappear on mouseout. The second requirement is often found only partially: many tooltip libraries offer sticky tooltip options, but don't allow multiple sticky tooltips to appear simultaneously. So far, I only found one tooltip library that did it all out of the box: domTT. The demo at http://www.mojavelinux.com/cooker/demos/domTT/example4.html shows what I am looking for. I have successfully combined this library with JQuery in my webapps, but unfortunately bounced into memory leaks on large pages (probably due to the domTT library itself). Without any disrespect, that library has its age and I guess modern-day JS frameworks like JQuery are better geared to avoiding memory leaks by design. Therefore, I'm looking into a pure JQuery solution to implement this functionality, since it promises fast + robust js development for common behaviours + an extensive plugin library. The biggest problem, however, is that even elaborated JQuery plugins like clueTip are limited to displaying only one sticky tooltip at a time. Thanks in advance to any suggestions! Ron

[jQuery] Re: Listmenu - tips for making it faster in IE
Hi Anoop. I spent considerable time tuning the code for performance, but yes, IE does lag behind, especially when approaching 1000 items or more. I found Safari and Chrome to both be quite fast and Firefox nearly as fast as those. The IE issue stems from the code that moves the items from the original UL or LI into the separate lists used for each submenu. I messed around a little with implementing a built-in Loading... message, but found IE's behavior so annoying (it likes to appear hung when it's not and workarounds only delayed the load time) that I decided not to include that in the plugin. I'm on vacation right now, but early next week could take a look at a workaround you might be able to use to show a message and then hide it after IE is done chugging way. Let me know and I'll put some thought into it. Thanks, Jack Anoop kumar V wrote: I am using listmenu and it works fantastically well... except only on firefox. On IE 7 it is quite slow, the lag is very noticeable - the menu appears after about 6-7 seconds and the counts come much later after about 8-10 seconds. Since this is an intranet app, I need to ensure that IE 7 works very well. I have about 2000 elements and they are not at all balanced across the alphabets... Are there any tips that I could follow such that the menu displays quicker in IE? Or at the very least is there a way I can show a Loading... text or an animated gif while the menu loads.. But thank you for this wonderful plugin it is really well made, I only wish IE would catch up soon ;-) Thanks, Anoop
[jQuery] ANNOUNCE: new revs of listnav and listmenu plugins
Hi All, New versions of the jquery listnav and listmenu plugins are now available: http://www.ihwy.com/labs/jquery-listnav-plugin.aspx http://www.ihwy.com/labs/jquery-listmenu-plugin.aspx What's new: -- ListNav plugin - 1. added an includeOther option to provide a top level '...' nav link to access items that start with chars other than A-Z and 0-9. For example, chars like Ä and Ü. 2. added a prefixes option to provide a way to show The New York Times under T and N. Pass in your own prefix array. See the new demo 6 here for examples of both: http://www.ihwy.com/labs/Demos/Current/jquery-listnav-plugin.aspx -- ListMenu plugin --- 1. added an includeOther option, just like the one for the ListNav plugin. 2. added an onClick option that simplifies handling clicks in the dropdown menu (for things like pulling an href out of the clicked link to use it for an ajax call). The onClick uses event delegation, so is low overhead and the clicked object is available as a jquery object in your onClick function. See demo 3 here for includeOther example and demo 6 for onClick example: http://www.ihwy.com/labs/demos/current/jquery-listmenu-plugin.aspx Some of these features were based on user requests. Thanks to everyone for the feedback. - Jack

[jQuery] Re: Listnav initial display of no items?
Ah, I see. Since you have includeAll: false, it required a different
workaround, since that forces the first available letter's contents to
show. I grabbed a copy of your test and verified that this works:
$(function(){
var clicks = 0;
$('#alphalist').listnav({
includeAll: false,
// cookieName: 'xalpha_list',
onClick: function(){
clicks++;
if(clicks == 1){$('#alphalist').show();} // this has clicks
== 1 instead of == 2 now
}
}).hide(); // I added this
});
Hope that works for you.

[jQuery] Re: Listnav Umlauts and special chars
Good idea making All a variable. You're the 2nd person in the last few days who had a need for that. And thanks for your thoughts on the special chars. As I mentioned in my other email a few minutes ago, I'll be adding support for that, I just need to think it through a bit more. It seems like it would be nice to have them automatically appear in the navigation, but that means losing control over how many things are in the nav, and therefore how wide it will be on the page (which could result in wrapping). One idea is to lump them into an other listnav item, but that doesn't seem very good, either. Another is to add a new row to the nav for dynamically adding nav links for special chars. Or the other could be a dropdown (but then it's items are out of view, which reduces the ability to quickly visually scan the list). Offhand, I don't know if there's an easy way (or whether it really makes sense logically to a user) to degrade chars to their nearest neighbor. I don't know enough about other languages to know. Thanks, Jack sixtyseven wrote: I ran into a problem when having umlauts as first letter in the li tag. They will not be shown, until I add them to the letters array. IMHO the better way would be to have a function, that degrades the letter to the next near neighbor, i.e. if it is ü, make it to u, if it's é make it to e, etc. Do you have any Idea how to achieve this? Such a function would make the listnav more multilingual. While speaking of this, perhaps you could make the word All a variable, too. Same thing with special chars like *,# etc. How about adding them into a group of its own? Probably one could handle it like this: If the first letter is neither a number nor a letter, it must be a special char. Hope I could explain the problem, my english is not that good.

Hi, I'm assuming the little treasure is the plugin? ;-) Thanks, glad
you like it.
There's nothing built into the plugin that will hide the full list (it's
wired to show the first available letter unless you specify a letter to
show), but here's a workaround that might do the trick for you:
1. set the css for your UL to:
display:none;
2. add a function to the listnav onClick option that will show the UL if
it's not showing already, something like:
var isShowing = false;
$('#yourUL').listnav({
onClick: function(){
if(!isShowing){
$('#yourUL').show();
isShowing = true;
}
}
});
That onClick will fire on every letter click, but that's minimal
overhead since you'd be just checking the value of isShowing after the
first click is handled (which makes your UL show up).

and here's how it could look:

[jQuery] Re: AIR plugin for jQuery?
From your examples, it looks like you're thinking more about helper
methods than just exposing the API, which makes sense, but then the
question is what helper methods should we create to make this a good
framework? (I think). If that's the case, have you thought about it
much? Helper method meaning something that wraps a chunk of air native
code up to support some reusable functionality beyond the lower level
air stuff.

I just blogged about this idea:
http://andymatthews.net/read/2009/06/12/jQuery-and-AIR:-AIR-methods-abstracted-into-jQuery-plugin
I think that this is a great idea and I'd love to get involved in it,
but I'd want others to be included as well. My jQuery foo is fairly
strong, but I've never written a plugin, and would really want someone
to provide a good code review for best practices. The cool thing is
that there wouldn't be much jQuery in the plugin. It's mostly an
abstraction of the AIR APIs into a tighter, simpler package.
I think the best place to start would be some of the lower hanging
fruit. Some of the API methods that are straightforward and don't
require a lot of options. Then we could move into SQLite, File System
access, etc.
Thoughts?

OK, yeah, that's what I figured you were looking for. I haven't seen
anything like that, but it would be cool if it existed. Doesn't seem
like it would be a ton of work (famous last words). Have you got any
thoughts about how it might work across the sandbox bridges? I use the
bridges and build the non-app sandbox stuff very much like a regular
web app and create and expose certain functions via the bridges
to/from the app and non-app sandbox, since all the direct air API
access can only happen in the app sandbox.
I haven't really thought it out, but wondering if maybe you have.
Maybe you're looking maybe for something that would just be used in
the app sandbox and it'd be up to the end user to create the bridge
stuff that they need?

Thanks Jack...that's not quite what I meant.
For example, even though the AIR method for minimizing a window to the
system tray is short:
nativeWindow.minimize();
It would be cool if this functionality was packaged up so that you
could apply the minimize method directly to an object. Here's what I
do now:
// this assigns the minimize functionality to the minimize button
$('#minimize').bind('click', function(event) {
iface.minimize();
});
and here's how it could look:
// this assigns the minimize functionality to the minimize button
$('#minimize').air.minimize();
Obviously that's not a great example, but the code for adding a menu
to an icon running in the task bar is much lengthier. You can see how
this might benefit from an abstraction layer:
setupIconTray: function() {
// shortcut to the nativeApplication object
var app = air.NativeApplication.nativeApplication;

[jQuery] tables and chairs app
Hi All, I'm thinking out how to put together a web app that allows a user to have a room and in that room, place tables and chairs, which will then be used for a scheduling app. The scheduling part I'm on top of. The graphical part for positioning tables and chairs is what I'm looking for a good solution to. At minimum the user has to be able to drag/drop and rotate the tables and chairs, to position them in a way that resembles the real room. Ideally, they should be able to either resize the table (drag sides of a rectangle or enlarge a circle) or, less desirably, I could give them a set of different tables to choose from (or both). Right now I'm thinking of using canvas and looking into jQuery plugins. Any pointers? Thanks, Jack

The first thing that the listmenu plugin does is this:

It works ok, but maybe you could consider adding this so it would be

[jQuery] Re: listmenu plugin: non-ascii characters
Hi, I considered building something like that in, but decided I didn't know enough about other languages to decide how best to handle them. Thanks for starting the dialog. Does anyone else have any opinion on this? The main thing I'm wondering is whether collecting them all under one nav item would, in some cases, result in *many* things ending up there and not many things left under the individual letters (depends on how many items start with these kinds of chars). Also, I think that # would mean starts with a number to most people, but numbers are already handled via the optional [0-9] nav item. If not #, then what else might make sense? On a related note: does anyone know offhand if high ascii chars like these can be used as CSS class names? I haven't ventured into researching that yet.

[jQuery] Re: scrollTo plugin: prevent tabbing between slides?
Thanks for the ideas. Interesting idea, disabling the fields out of
view, but my scenario actually has a series of forms (like 6 of them),
so that'd seem like a bit much for my case.
Here's what I ended up doing (which amounted to disabling the tab for
the relevant fields):
1. created this plugin:
(function($) {
$.fn.preventTab = function(options) {
return this.each(function(){
$(this).bind('keydown', function(e){
if(e.which == 9){
return false;
}
});
});
};
})(jQuery);
2. added this to form fields that the tabbing went to before going to
the next slide:
class=preventTab
3. wired up the plugin by doing this:
$('.preventTab', $myContext).preventTab();
The rub is that it disables shift-tab as a result, so once the user goes
into that field, they can't shift-tab back out. It also doesn't take
care of shift-tabbing from the first form field to one in a previous
slide (unless I apply it to that field, too, in which case tabbing
forward from it won't work). I did a little googling to see how best to
handle/detect shift-tab, but so far am not sure (other than maybe to use
the jquery hotkeys plugin, which I've already got in the project anyway.
Thanks,
Jack

[jQuery] Re: listnav, but for tables?
Hi, I wrote the listnav plugin. Can you elaborate a little more on how you'd want it to work? There might be a selector we can tweak to make it do what you want (like use tr instead of li). - Jack Tor wrote: I'm looking for a plugin like the listnav plugin (demo: http://www.ihwy.com/Labs/Demos/Current/jquery-listnav-plugin.aspx), but for tables?

The listnav plugin is exactly what I'm after, but it works on ol/ul only, and I need to use it with tables.
[jQuery] state of the art for corner rounding?
Hi All, I have a half dozen bookmarks for rounded corner plugins, but am wondering if there's a state of the art plugin kicking any booty on that these days? What I'd *really* like is to just be able to set -moz border radiuses in CSS and have a plugin magically use those to create rounded corners in IE and Safari (IE mainly... using excanvas or something with it is fine, too). Any advice? For the project I'm working on now I don't need to have lines at the border (ie: no border:1px solid black or anything). Thanks, Jack
[jQuery] flexbox question
I'm evaluating Flexbox for a project: http://www.fairwaytech.com/Technology/FlexBoxDemo.aspx In example #1 there I can type in some chars and items with those chars *inside* a result get highlighted (though only the first instance of the found chars in any given item gets highlighted). In all of the other demos the matching only occurs at the beginning of the items. Is it possible to have the *in the words* matching behavior happen (like in example #1), but also have the list filtering behavior that the other demos show? IE, if I have: Guinea Pig Pig Iguana Fox and type in i, I would like to have the dropdown display all matches with i anywhere in them: Guinea Pig Pig Iguana The jquery autcomplete plugin will do it (type i in the E-Mail example): http://jquery.bassistance.de/autocomplete/demo/ but there are some other features that Flexbox has that I'd like. Thanks, Jack

[jQuery] detect quicktime?
Hi All, I'm looking for a jquery plugin (or vanilla method) for detecting quicktime, so I can decide whether to embed a QT movie or not. Did some googling, but most of the methods seems really old and I didn't see any jQuery plugins dedicated to detection. Any links/advice? Thanks! - Jack
[jQuery] Re: Tablesorter with pager extension check boxes not present on form submit
Checkbox names are only posted if they're checked. You'll need to check for the presence of the name on the server side and if it's not there, then none were checked. That's not a tablesorter issue (doesn't sound like it). - Jack Justin wrote: Hello everyone, This is my first post to the jQuery group. I am using the tablesorter and tablesorter.pager jQuery plugin in an ASP.NET web page. Each row in the table has a checkbox and is intended to be used by the user to add or remove an item from the final selection. The problem is that when the form is submitted and you are on a page with no checkboxes checked, on the server side, the Request.Form.AllKeys does not show the checkbox's named as a member of the request. I think this has something to do with the caching mechanism and the fact the checkboxes are physically taken out of the table. What methods are there to make sure all the hidden rows form elements are submitted back to the server? Thanks, Justin

Cool. The one thing I wonder about is mixed images in landscape and portrait modes. Most gallery demos don't show that, I'm guessing cuz it's less pretty, but from my experience it's often matters.

Agreed on the behavior, that's how I'd want it to act, too. Is the site you're putting the gallery on public?

Been searching for the last hour, found some solutions, but still not
good enough.
I have a navigation menu -- when I hover over a header, I want the
submenus to slideDown, and then on hoverOut, I want it to slide back
in. First, I was having problems with it only displaying 2 or 3 of
the dropdown items if I got crazy with the hovering (on, off, on, off
quite rapidly). Then I found the .css(overflow:visible) fix. That
causes the menu to at least always display all the items, but the
effect is lost if you hover on/off quickly.
What am I missing? This can't be this hard.
Here's the link:
http://www.threedaysaside.com/cep
Javascript:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(.sub_div).hide();
/*$(.sub_div).css('opacity', 0.9);*/
$(.subnav_a).hover(function() {
$(.sub_div).stop().css('overflow',
'visible').slideDown(800);
}, function() {
$(.sub_div).stop().css('overflow',
'visible').slideUp(300);
});
});
The Residential link is the only one with a dropdown. And don't worry
about the styling, I haven't even had a chance to worry about it
myself yet.
