Re: [jQuery] hoverIntent r5 = plug-in ready to be plugged-in

2007-03-28 Thread Theo Welch
Great work, Brian! Thanks for sharing this really helpful plug-in! On a site I am building (NDA'd) I am currently using setTimeout() to delay drop-down menu appearance (and disappearance) to avoid that "flicker" problem so common with drop-downs. It actually works quite well. But hoverInten

I can't believe I'm writing these words, :) but from my experience, it is unlikely that this is due to an IE bug. I have seen the same thing before...where the warning about "some items not being secure" appears in IE but not Firefox. It may have been to some relaxed (or misconfigured) Fi

Hi Scott, I may not understand the details of your situation, but it seems you are quite close to the first part of a solution (I am no expert either). Could you just give each of your fields a common class name as well as the unique id: And then your jQuery code could

Re: [jQuery] Accordion plugin

2006-11-09 Thread Theo Welch
Brilliant, guys! Thanks a lot for sharing these enhancement ideas Joel and Brandon. Not only can the text in the accordion now be resized with no penalty, but this also makes it possible to swap out the contents of the accordion sections at runtime! This was a big help (and enlightening). :) Thank
