[jquery-dev] Re: Exception when sending document.location in $.post

2009-12-28 Thread Shade
I think you probably want to use document.location.href which is the string representation of the location object. Also, jus as an aside, document.location is actually a deprecated alias (by spec) to the real window.location, so you might consider updating your references to window. instead of

Re: [jquery-dev] GOALS? Feature Request: $.ajax(): Detect json via response header

2009-12-28 Thread Rick Waldron
We're struggling with the best way to inform .ajax() that we expect multiple data types. Either, with a setting like auto or by passing an array of data types (or maybe allowing both). Perhaps it would help if we defined a list of goals. I'll start. 1. $.ajax() - if dataType has not been

John, While I'm glad to see a scope arg available, i still think this is negligent to the future of jQuery and ES standards. I really think a fn.bind() implementation would ideal (since it would be jQuery-wide and not just available in one function), but as I've noted in the past and is exampled

This page: http://docs.jquery.com/Traversing/contains needs to be removed from the docs. (Only a sysop can do this) It is not currently accessible from the main Traversing index, but it still exists and someone came in yesterday wondering why this didn't work in jQuery 1.3.2. FWIW, this is how

Rick, your 1 (which I too have suggested in the past) might bring about unease as folks would prefer any eval-ing to come through explicit request. I also think it's imperative that the behavior of any dataType setting (including null) shouldn't change (especially to one that suddenly evals!). But

I can compromise with your #2, and give them both my vote. Passing it on... *1. Allow $.ajax() to accept multiple expected dataTypes. 2. Setting to have $.ajax() auto-detect/translate via response content-type header.* Julian - your thoughts? On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 3:39 PM, webbiedave

I made a simplified page to demonstrate this behavior. Unfortunately, that page doesn't exhibit the behavior. *sigh*. I'll keep investigating. In the mean time, if anyone has ever seen this kind of behavior and knows why it happened to them, their feedback would be appreciated. On Sun, Dec 27,

I made a post about how confusing people may find the name bind some time ago. Suggested renaming bind to something like event, and keeping bind as an alias of course. That was rejected. I don't get what you are talking about a fn.bind() implementation in jQuery, or what you mean by available
