[jQuery] Re: Vexed with SuckerFish Flash
I just finished up a site that used SuperFish and swfObject (and Cycle and idTabs and Accordion...), although I'm using jQuery 1.1.4 still. You don't need to re-output the SWF to get the transparent background, you just need to add a paramater to the swfObject setup code: so.addParam(wmode, transparent); That should be enough to ensure that your CSS layers appear on top of the SWF. I did run into a problem with Firefox on Mac that had to do with an Opacity bug. That's an issue with the plugin, and not jQuery/ Superfish. Here's a link to the Superfish plugin: http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish And here's a blog post about the FF Flash bug: http://jakeo.org/blog/2007/03/16/css-opacity-and-flash-transparency-in-mac-firefox/ Oh, and if anyone is interested in a two relaunched sites using jQuery: http://www.laphil.com http://www.hollywoodbowl.com - bry On Nov 27, 2:04 pm, Jay Fallon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Awhile ago I implemented a basic menu based on jQuery/Suckerfish(a href=http://be.twixt.us/jquery/suckerFish.php;/a), and I never realized the implications of the menu appearing behind a flash object until said object became available. I've read though the posts and I've seen some talk about solutions, but as of yet I haven't seen anything that worked in the wild. My current implementation uses the latest jQuery.js and I've tried to implement the flash object using swfObject.js (which causes a conflict with other scripts), jMedia.js and jquery.flash.js, along with bgiframe.js but as of yet I have not been successful. Has anyone been able to overcome this problem? I don't have access to the Flash IDE at the moment, so I'll try and get it working with a transparent background, but if anyone has actually implemented a fix, I'd be really appreciative. Thanks.
[jQuery] Re: Transparencys and Overlays
Take a look at BlockUI: http://jquery.com/plugins/project/blockUI It will apply an overlay to either the whole page or a specific element. Might not be exactly what you need, but it's a good starting point. - b On Oct 26, 11:02 am, Glen Lipka [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: CSS is used by the plugins. Do you use Firebug or IE Dev toolbar? They are invaluable to inspect elements on the page and see what makes them tick. Look at the JS of this page:http://parkerfox.parkerfox.railsplayground.net/labs/zoombox/ Look at the dimScreen plugin that it uses. You will notice how it uses the css tag opacity and z-index to manipulate that stuff. This article goes over the CSS rules in detail.http://www.mandarindesign.com/opacity.html Glen On 10/26/07, S.

I think CSS provides the ability to do this, but I'm not sure. What is the basic CSS to: 1) Put a gray, semi-transparent sheet over the whole page? 2) To do the same over just one element? 3) And to raise one element over that transparency? Much appreciated.
[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: SimpleModal
I think he's referring to the queuing and duration of the fade effects. First the overlay fades in, the the modal fades in... start to finish it's more than a full second from the moment the trigger was clicked. Your fade durations are set to 'slow'. I haven't played with it yet, but from what I read those can be configured, which would make it appear snappier. - b On Oct 25, 4:14 pm, Eric Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Oct 25, 8:05 am, R.

I see from your website that you are in India, is that correct? What browser are you using? Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Thanks, Eric
[jQuery] Re: datePicker plugin inline

Unfortunately my timeframe allowed for this project is measured in hours, not weeks, so I doubt I'd even have time to try and figure out how to do it myself. Is there a method that you think would work that you haven't tested yet, or is it just a non-available feature? Is there some alternate plugin you can recommend? Or some possible alternate interface that's similar that could be accomplished with datePicker?

A date picker calendar (with the paging etc) only exists as a popup and if you use renderCalendar then you don't get paging or anything. The ability to use a date picker not in a popup is one of the two additions I wanted to make before I stop calling the date picker v2 beta. Unfortunately I'm really busy at work at the moment and realistically it will probably be a couple of weeks before I get a chance to work on the date picker again. If you want to try and figure it out yourself then feel free and report back on your progress, otherwise if you can wait I'll try and get it done then, Cheers, Kelvin :) Larry Garfield wrote: Hello, jQuery. My apologies if this is a dupe; the first copy didn't seem to go through. I'm working with Kevin Luck's datePicker plugin, v2[1], because it seemed the least unsuited for what I was trying to do and I'm already using it elsewhere. What I'm trying to do is have an inline calendar grid rather than a popup, and have that inline grid offer paging and multi-select abilities. Then on submit, grab all of the selected dates and serialize them to a hidden field and submit. I'm replacing a YUI widget that did that, but did so only on certain systems when it was in certain moods, making it far too unreliable. According to the docs, I can get paging and multi-select in a popup easily[2]. I can also render an inline calendar instead[3]. What I have found no documentation on and have been unable to do myself is get both to happen at the same time. If I render my own calendar, it gets no paging, no select ability at all; it's really just a static read-only display. I've looked at the plugin's source, but haven't been able to find any indication of what I'd need to copy out or reference directly in order to get the picker parts of datePicker. Any tips on how to have my picker and see it, too, would be most appreciated. Samples of working code would be even better. :-) Thanks.

[jQuery] Re: Validate() and TinyMCE problem
In simple terms, you need to move the content from the TinyMCE
control to the textarea for validation.
$('button.save').click(function(){
if (tinyMCE) tinyMCE.triggerSave();
});

Usually, these RT editors update the contents of the field/textarea
element just before the form is submitted, which probably happens
after your validation.
I work around it by manually updating the value of the field/textarea
before I call the validation/submit the form.
Could you describe in more detail how you do that? As this issue is
quite likely to occur for others, I'd like to write examples showing how
to integrate validation with those editors.
