Re: [jQuery] Javascript MVC

It looks like a creative pairing of buzzwords to me :) But it's a clever exercise. --Erik Oh bless you, someone who gets it. :-) Yes, most web apps that claim to be MVC are actually PAC (Presentation-Abstraction-Control). In MVC, the Controller is used only for updates and the View has direct read access to the Model. In PAC, the Controller does everything and simply pushes it through the Presentation layer, using it as just an output channel and theming layer. There's nothing wrong with PAC, especially on the web, but people really need to stop confusing the two. :-) I blame Sun for calling anything with JSP MVC just to sound cool. -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 6817012 If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. -- Thomas Jefferson ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Re: [jQuery] jQuery and XHTML as XML
On Fri, August 25, 2006 7:18 am, Klaus Hartl said:
Hi,
I just spotted in Revision 226, that jQuery will not by all means
support XHTML as XML.
Line 743 reads:
if ( table this.nodeName == TABLE a[0].nodeName != THEAD ) {
nodeName in XML preserves case, that means in XHTML as XML it would
return table and thead so that doesn't work here.
This may not have high priority but needs to be fixed, maybe in jQuery
1.01 or something?
Fix:
if ( table this.nodeName.toUpperCase() == TABLE
a[0].nodeName.toUpperCase() != THEAD ) {
Actually the standard fix I've seen most often is to fold to lowercase,
not uppercase. (Lowercase, because it's variable height, is generally
easier to read.)
This is an incompatibility between HTML (where JS folds to uppercase) and
XHTML/XML (where JS stays at the existing lowercase). Case folding to
lower is the recommended future-friendly method, I think.

On Tue, August 15, 2006 11:49 am, bbuchs said:
I would argue that less is more. One of the most fantastic things about
jQuery and the syntax is that it's so damn light. What's the most common
scenario for a date picker in a web app? Is it really neccessary to pick a
date 2, 3 years in the future?
Othewise, great plugin Kelvin. My only suggestions would be (1) to remove
the extra markup and use a DOM creation method or a wrap() to add the
container DIV, and (2) instead of doing INIT calls to use something more
jquery-esque:
$(input.mydate).datePicker({format:'mm/dd/', startdate:'08/15/2006',
enddate:'08/31/2006'});
But that's just me... Great work!
I would second this. The init method in use currently, if I understand it
correctly, means that multiple date pickers on the same page must have the
same settings. That is not always desirable. Passing a config object as
in bbuchs's example above would not only look cleaner, it would make each
picker independently configurable. Spiffy!
Now, if there were a way to make the start and end dates dependent on
another date picker field, then you'd have support for from and to
date fields, automatically enforcing the the to can't be after the from.
That would be highly cool. :-)
That said, this is still a most excellent plugin!

should be able to do that with something like:
$('[EMAIL PROTECTED]myfield]').val();
Right? What about multi-value fields like select boxes or radio button sets?

jQuery has great ways to interact with forms built right in.
$('#formfieldID').val() gets the value
$('#formfieldID').val(someVar) sets the value
Those are just the two basics. There's loads more built in.

Subject: [jQuery] jQuery form handling
Hey folks. I'm evaluating jQuery for my company, and have a few questions
that I've not been able to find answers to in the Docs on the site yet.
The major question I have is about form handling. Specifically, does
jQuery (either core or a well-supported plugin) provide functions to
easily manage forms? By manage, I mean things like pulling values out,
setting or changing form values programmatically, attaching events in a
browser-independent way (Safari and events are vil, IME), validation
rules, etc. Compound form elements (date pickers, time pickers, drag-drop
ordering of elements in a multi-select box, etc.) are good, too.
Where does jQuery stand on these? I'm hoping well, but am not sure
presently. :-) Thanks.

Re: [jQuery] Moving up the DOM

There's the new .parent() and .parents() methods which allow you to traverse up - which is exactly what you want. You can find basic documentation for it is (temporarily) here: http://john.jquery.com/jquery/docs/ --John Hm, spiffy, that does look like just what I'm looking for. Thanks! Is that documentation page based on dev, beta, or latest? I'm fast getting the impression that the jQuery web site docs are well out of date compared to the current version. Is the temp link you listed auto-generated? It would be really nice to have auto-generated docs built out of code comments (a la JavaDoc and PHPDocumenter) available on the site for each of the main trees (dev, beta, latest). Is there a Javascript equivalent for documentation? --Larry Garfield ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
