[jQuery] Can a ThickBox appear over the top of my Flash content?

[Oddish]

Since the link in the thickbox QA is broken, could someone explain
how I can make my thickboxes appear over the top of my flash content?
Thanks in advance!

[jQuery] Re: Radio button validation

[Oddish]

Thanks for the response. I went with the first option and placed a
custom error label manually in the HTML, and it works great.

 There still is that positioning problem with radio buttons and
 checkboxes. Currently you have two far-from-perfect options: Place the
 error label for that group in the HTML (see the second example on the
 demo page), or use the errorPlacement-option to override the default
 positioning (insertAfter element, see custom-methods-demo).

 In case the element is completely ignored and the form is submitted as
 valid, there may be another problem. You should at least see an error
 label inserted behind the first radio input. An example page of your
 setup may help.

[jQuery] Radio button validation

[Oddish]

I've got a bunch of radio buttons, all with the name type and all
with different id's (type1, type2 etc.), and for some reason the
validate plugin doesn't protest when I don't select a radio button,
and I don't get any javascript errors either. Here's the code:

$(#addForm).validate({
focusInvalid: false,
event: blur,
rules: {
type: { required:true }
},
messages: {
type: Please choose type
}
});

-

And here's the html

label for=type1
input type=radio name=type  id=type1 value=1 /Type 1
/label

label for=type2
input type=radio name=type  id=type2 value=2 /Type 2
/label

Anyone got a clue?

Thanks!

[jQuery] Re: Validate optional field

Thanks a lot! :)

 How do I make this field optional? I only want to check the birthdate
 if the user has provided one. (I'm aware of the date method, but I'm
 purposely using a custom method).

 This is going to be controlled by your custom function. If you look at
 Jörn's built in validation methods, you'll see he validates the field if the
 field is also required:

 rangeLength: function(value, element, param) {
 var length = jQuery.validator.getLength(value, element);
 return !jQuery.validator.methods.required(value, element) || (
 length = param[0]  length = param[1] );

 },

 You can use the same approach in your custom validation, or you can just
 pass back true if the field is blank to say it passes validation.

[jQuery] Variable in selector

[Oddish]

I'm trying to hide an image, and I have the id of that image in a
variable (imgToShow). Here's what I'm trying:

$(#+imgToShow).show();

This is not working. What am I doing wrong?

[jQuery] Re: Variable in selector

[Oddish]

That unfortunately hides the whole page. It goes completely blank in
both FF and IE7. :-(

Don't worry about this. My original code does work, but there was a
css rule the interfeared. Thanks for the help!

[jQuery] Best practice for image source change

[Oddish]

I've got a bunch of thumbnails, and when clicking these thumbnails, a
larger image is supposed to change. I do this by changing the src
attribute of the larger image, but I'm very new to jQuery so I was
wondering about the best way to accomplish this. Right now, I've got
this working code, but maybe it can be optimized?

I wrap each thumbnail with a link:

a href=javascript:; id=tnLink01img src=thumbnail01.jpg
alt= //a

This is the amateurish jQuery code I've conjured up:

$(a#tnLink01).click(function() {
$(#mainImage).attr({src:another_large_image.jpg});
});

I'll need one of these functions for every thumbnail and that seems
wrong somehow, so I'd really appreciate any helpfil tips and
strategies for switching a larger image when clicking thumnails.
