 Hi all,

 Getting a very strange issue with the datepicker component.  It seems
 that whatever the first date on the bottom line of the displayed
 picker is, is being duplicated.  Take a look at what I mean here:

 http://i773.photobucket.com/albums/yy12/lmcmullen8/datepicker_prob.jpg

 There are lots of individual datepickers being created on this form
 and I'm getting this behaviour with all of them

 Has anybody come across this before?

[jQuery] Autocomplete form submit on enter problem?

2008-12-03 Thread Lee Mc

Hi

I've implemented the ui.autocomplete to a number of inputs and
textareas on a form, they all work fine and as expected.  All except
one, for some reason on one of the autocomplete fields, when I've
scrolled to a value in the list and press enter to select the value,
the form is being submitted.

I'm completely puzzled because this doesn't happen on any of the other
autcomplete fields.  Here is the code which initialises the
autocomplete:

$(function(){
// Set up the requestor field
requestor_tab.setup();
});
var requestor_tab = {
setup: function(){
// Set up the requestor field
this.requestor_setup();
},
requestor_setup: function(){
// setup the request_for autocomplete
$('#requested_for').addClass('autocomplete').autocomplete
(settings.users, {
matchContains: true,
mustMatch: true,
minChars: 0
}).result(function(event, data, formatted){
if ($(this).val() == settings.cur_requested_for) {
alert(user is the same);
} else {
 alert(user is different);
}
});
}
}

I've looked a little deeper and it appears to be something to do with
the alert - when I remove the alert calls, the form doesn't submit.

In the live environment the alerts aren't going to be there so
therefore the problem will disappear but I'd still like to try and
understand why this is happening if possible.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,
Lee


[jQuery] ui.jquery.com - down?

[jQuery] Lightbox/ThickBox/ui.dialog etc

2008-11-27 Thread Lee Mc

Hi there,

Does anyone have an opinion on what they think is the best lightbox
implementation to use?

It's not going to be used to display images, it's mainly form
interaction. My only caveat's are:

- Must be draggable
- Must (unfortunately) work in IE6
- Must be modal

I've been playing with ui.dialog and really like it.  However I seem
to be having some issues in IE6 - using the same theme as displayed on
this page:

http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/ui/demos/functional/#ui.dialog

The close image on the title bar is causing some layout issues and
also select elements from the underlying content are appearing
through into the content of the dialog.

A quick search brought back this: http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/.
Appears to do everything required except be draggable.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers,
Lee

 In your original post is #field_id within the content of the first
 tab, or is it the content warpper of the first tab?

 If it is the wrapper, then you are putting the image outside of what
 is hidden, if not then changing that field width shouldn't affect any
 other tabs.

 From what I now understand you don't want the image there unless you
 are on the first tab? So placing it within the content of that tab may
 be the solution?

The example HTML only has a single text input, it's this input I'm
having issues with. Apologies, the example HTML gave the field a
different ID than the JS contained. Im copying the code from an in
process project so it's stripped down for readability.

Therefore the different ID in my HTML is just a typo.

   That all seems like it would work fine. I went back and re-read your
   original post. I found that I may have misunderstood the problem.

   In your original post is #field_id within the content of the first
   tab, or is it the content warpper of the first tab?

   If it is the wrapper, then you are putting the image outside of what
   is hidden, if not then changing that field width shouldn't affect any
   other tabs.

   From what I now understand you don't want the image there unless you
   are on the first tab? So placing it within the content of that tab may
   be the solution?

[jQuery] $('#id').width()

2008-11-18 Thread Lee Mc

Hi, i'm having an issue with setting the width of a field using $
('#field_id').width(). My setup is as follows:

- I have a form with multiple divs, on load I run some code to turn
these divs into tabbed content i.e. only one div showing at any
point.  When tab=x appears in the URL, my code opens that tab
instead of the default 1st tab

- There is a field on the first (and default) tab which I'm a)
reducing the width of and b) placing an image next to using the
following:

$('#field_id').width($('#field_id').width() - 25)).after
('img_html')

- I then add a click event handler to the newly inserted image using $
('#img_id').click(function(){js_to_run});

This works completely as expected when the form opens to the default
tab.

My problem is that when I open the form to a different tab (e.g. using
tab=3 in the URL), the width of the field is not being updated.  The
image is still inserted and the image click is still handled.  It
appears that the only thing not being updated is the field width.

Has anyone come across this before or have any ideas if (and where)
I'm going wrong?

Cheers,
Lee

Hi, here is the JS.  I haven't pasted the form_tabs.build() function
but can do if you think that might help.


$(function(){
// Build the tabs on the form. form_tabs is contained in the js/
tabs.js lib
form_tabs.build();
// Set up the field
field_setup();
});
function field_setup(){
// Create image which does something when clicked
var img = 'img src=images/icons/user.gif id=field_img
alt=blah';
// Append image to the requested_for field
$('#test_field').after(img).width($('#test_field').width() - 23);
// catch the image being clicked
$('#field_img').click(function(){
// code for image click here
});
}


Cheers,
Lee
