[jQuery] Animation glitch in Innerfade
Hi All, I have created a fading rotating section on my new travel site which is designed to cycle through a number of special offers. When the page loads it created 3 ul which innerfade works on perfectly. Visitors to the site are able to view more info on hotels which removes the special offer content and replaces it with hotel information using ajax. If they then click the Back to specials button the reverse happens, with the hotel info dissapearing and being replaced by the special offer content appended using ajax. (this is all as designed) This is where the problem strikes - the animation on the content flicks back and forth between the different special offers before settling on the correct one. Does anyone know why this happens on the ajax appended content? Because this is a pre-production site I really can't publish the url here however I will happily email it to anyone privately. I hope I have explained my probelm sufficiently for someone to know what on earth I am going on about :)

Andy, Thanks for your comments - the same thing has been happening to me - I will need to examine the order I call the fade() and $.ajax functions.

I'm using IE7/PC and I noticed a few things that don't look quite right: Anytime the far right sidebar changes content here's what happens: 1) Existing content fades out 2) Existing content fades back in for about a half second 3) New content suddenly appears. It seems like you've got something out of order in your code as the center column works flawlessly. All in all this appears to be a great site and makes me wish I was in Europe right now riding the rails. -Original Message- From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andy Matthews Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2007 8:45 AM To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Subject: [jQuery] Re: Update on new travel site Ah...never mind.

Hopefully I will get some more feedback form our Mac/Safari and Opera users this week. I am also going to be working on improving the site's ability to degrade gracfully when javascript is turned off. I can see this being quite a challenge.

[jQuery] Re: datePicker v2 beta
Wow absolutely fantastic! I played around with the previous version on a travel website I was developing but found it just wasn't quite right. But this new version looks awesome. It works perfectly in IE7 - any news on backwards compatability with IE6 for example? Also - how difficult would it be to link the two datepicker example to a length input/select, to track nights for example? Anyway thanks for all your hard work developing this. Ben On Apr 24, 10:54 am, Kelvin Luck [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'd like to announce the beta release of v2 of my datePicker plugin for jQuery. This release is a complete rewrite which makes the date picker considerably more powerful and flexible than it previously was. Check out the temporary project page: http://kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/datePicker/v2/demo/ Note, this is currently in beta and may be a little rough around the edges but I'd love to get some feedback. I've tested in FF2, IE6 and Opera 9 but it would be good to know if it works in other browsers (particulaly Safari). Plus any other feedback on extra stuff you'd like adding or bugs you discover, Cheers, Kelvin :)

[jQuery] New Travel Site using jquery
Hi everyone, I have just released my first site using jquery and in particular jquery's ajax functions. The concept is to provide a one page application and improve the user experience. It only launched today (as always there are a few teething problems) but I would love to hear your comments. Regards Ben

Ok, I have got permission to post code snippets - sorry for the mucking around.

Double check what your server is returning to the client using firebug (your ajax requests) Good luck.

[jQuery] Re: AJAX problems in IE6
THhanks for all your help guys - I have searched through line by line and found the real problem was IE6 couldnt apply changes to the DOM so quickly, so I used the pause plugin and applied that strategically and it has solved the problems. The site works a treat in all major browsers now. On Apr 18, 3:00 pm, Brandon Aaron [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: No it isn't. Could you post what the 'data' is?

To me it sounds like it is most likley style / animation based, however you may find that you will be successful using a process of elimination.
