[jQuery] Re: Adding :hover css support to IE6 - ie6HoverFix
Thanks Christian! I had this same frustration on a recent product and simply added a manual class for IE6. It was a quick fix but you had to remember to update both if the look and feel was ever changed. I like your method much better because it uses the actual original :hover class definition.

[jQuery] Get the element that's appended directly without using second step?
This is exactly how I do it. I don't even append the new element until it
has been fully populated or manipulated. I don't want my users to see a
half way completed div if some procedure takes longer than expected.

You could do it like this, perhaps:
var $testDiv = $("").appendTo(
window.document.body);
Is that what you're looking for?

With the help from a few jQuery'ers, the only way to dynamically
create and append element using jQuery for multiframe application is
$(window.document.body).append("");
This jQuery statement returns window.document.body object.
There will be quite a few elements created this way in a same
document, it will be confusing to use array index to retrieve the
newly created element. So the question is: if I want to get that newly
created object directly, what's the correct way to do it?
Thanks.
[jQuery] Re: fancy menu - tell me what you guys think
This is great but I have to also comment on the delay. It does feel a little unresponsive. If I click on a menu item before the slider has time to get there (which is quite easy to do) it tends to flash and act a little quirky.

My only comment is that there's a delay on mouseover in your version versus the mootols version. It's slight, but it makes the menu feel unresponsive or laggy. If you can fix that then it would be perfect.

[jQuery] Best way to select a cell in a table?
You're right GTG.
I found this out quickly after my post. I'm using the following:
$('tr:eq(2) td:eq(3)')
which seems to get exactly the one cell I'm looking for.
Just for sake of argument this is a very simple example. I use variables in
my code and I have only one table on the page. If I had multiple tables
this would indeed return multiple elements unless I selected the individual
table as well. At least this is my understanding.

I don't think ur selector is right for selecting the 2nd row, 3rd column.
It most probably is returning you more elements depending on the number of
rows u have.
Eg: if you have 3 rows in your table, then it should return, 1 tr and 3 td's
each representing the 3rd column in every row.
I would use $("td:eq(2)", $("tr:eq(1)"))

This is a rather simplistic example but is this better than, say, giving

[jQuery] Coder vs Designer?
Good catch Klaus & Christof. I am a coder and relatively new to CSS. I do have a little tenancy towards classitis which I am trying to cure myself of. Thanks for the good suggestions!

How about Course Title ... And then in the original code have Even less bloated, less to transfer, more expressive and my suggested code should still work (as it does with your suggestion). Christof
[jQuery] Coder vs Designer?
It seems that before Web 2.0 and jQuery type frameworks it was easier to
separate server code from web presentation. Now, especially with AJAX,
things seem to be blurring again.
In my present job we don't have a designer, so us coders are the designer.
I don't mind but I'd still like to keep the two separated as much as
possible.
For instance, in one of my projects we show students the courses they have
taken. If the student hovers over a course I have a jTip like feature that
loads the details such as their grade, course number, when they took it,
etc. I have all the main layout in the presentation layer and well
organized css & js folders. I use Jayrock and JSON to populate the data,
however, for simple tasks like the jTip I'm building the presentation part
(the divs, spans, etc) directly in the JavaScript code. This seems very
mingled in my point of view.
What are others doing to make sure that even small snippets of HTML aren't
creeping into their js files? Do you have this in separate html files that
you import and then fill with data? Are you using some sort of template
framework that works with jQuery?
I just think code like:
$('#courseHist').append('Course Title' + crs.title + '');
is very ugly and muddled.
Thanks!

[jQuery] Re: Good Javascript editor or IDE?
Thanks for all the great suggestions. I used IntelliJ at a previous job and loved it. Unfortunately we're a MS house here and I doubt I could get the request approved. :) I'll check out Aptana's latest as well as Spket. I use Notepad++ for quick and easy edits so that's my general text editor of choice. Thanks to those offering similar solutions. I'm looking more for an IDE that can understand the link between several js files and assist with intelligent Intellisense / Snippet like features. If anyone else has others to offer keep them coming! Thanks, Matt
[jQuery] Good Javascript editor or IDE?
I've just started developing with jQuery in the last month. I usually use VS 2005 or Notepad++ for my JavaScript. It's features are pretty much nil as far as intellisense goes. Mainly all they do is syntax highlighting and formatting. What recommendations on JavaScript editors or IDEs does anyone have? Is there something sophisticated enough that can have intellisense with jQuery or my own objects in external js files? Thanks, Matt
[jQuery] Cannot get json using a .load(url) request?
Is it not possible to load json data into the page with a div.load(url) function? I was trying and in FireFox the function just quit when opening the connection to the url. In IE 7 I received the error that the page is trying to load data that may be malicious and it's been blocked. I use Jayrock with jQuery. I was attempting to use jTip to load data when a user rolls over a div. Unfortunately I'm mangling my code to get it to work with jTip or betterTip since I need to format the json result first. So I'll just do it manually rather than using the plug in which is definitely cleaner for my project anyway. I just thought I'd ask about the loading raw json into the dom part for future reference. Thanks! Matt
[jQuery] Can jQuery get attributes of the actual style sheet?
IE does not support the CSS class :active but FireFox does. I use this to change the background color on a div to give feedback similar to a button click. For IE users I attach the mousedown and mouseup events to a function that simply does the same thing. However, if I ever change the color in my CSS class I have to remember to change the jQuery function to match. Can I have jQuery find this background color attribute in the css class in the style sheet? If so, I could just change it once in the CSS style sheet and jQuery would use the latest value. I haven't seen any examples on obtaining values from a style sheet so I thought I'd ask if it was even possible. Thanks, Matt Penner
