[jQuery] Re: jQuery introduction script (Alert Message is now showing!)

[cewagner hotmail]

yrstruly,

I replaced the DOCTYPE and html begin tag with this statement in order to 
keep browsers from entering quirks-mode.

You original code worked fine in most of my browser tests except for IE8 RC.

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en">


You might consider using IETester to verify which versions of IE your 
scripts work with, http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage.


Hope this helped.

Subject: [jQuery] jQuery introduction script (Alert Message is now showing!)



Hallo

Im new to jQuery. I have donwloaded the jquery-1.3.2min file and i
have copied that introduction code from the website and saved it in
the same directory as the jquery file. When i run the script it seems
to be working and when i click on the link it goes to the website, but
isnt this script suppose to show an alert message first, before it
goes to the website?

Please what am i doing wrong? Have a saved it correctly or is the file
i donwloaded not valid? Please help. The code follows:




  
  


  
   $(document).ready(function(){
  $("a").click(function(event){
alert("Thanks for visiting!");
  });
});


  


  http://jquery.com/";>jQuery

I think the OP does want it to follow the link, but show the alert first ?

So "return false" is not required.

OP - make sure jQuery is loading (there's no error if it doesn't). Try 
just an alert message within $(document).ready() itself.

Hi,

You need to return false so the anchor tag does not behave in its
normal way (ie, take you to the link specified).

So this should work:

$("a").click(function(event){
alert("Thanks for visiting!");
return false;
  });
