[jQuery] Autocomplete Behavior clarification
I have an Autocomplete on a form that uses local data. However, the input allows users to enter values that are not in the local data array. If the user enters and selects matching data the .result callback function sets a corresponding key value that is submitted with the form. The intent is to help enter known values, but others are allowed. What I'm observing is that if a match is entered, the corresponding key will be set. But if the user further edits the matched value the autocomplete doesn't fire again. This creates a problem because the key never changes. Is that expected autocomplete behavior? If so, is there a workaround? Here's the code: $(#calibration_location_name).autocomplete( locations, { minChars: 0, width: 310, selectFirst: false, scroll: true, matchContains: word, mustMatch: false, autoFill: false, formatItem: function(row, i, max) { return row.name; }, formatMatch: function(row, i, max) { return row.name; }, formatResult: function(row) { return row.name; } }) .result(LocationAutoCompleteCallback) .blur( function(){ if($(this).val() === '') { $(#calibration_locationkey).val(0); } }); Thanks
[jQuery] Expand/Collapse multi-line table cell from 1 to all lines
Consider a table of locations where one column is a mailing address. Each address is at least 2 lines, a few addresses are 6 lines and everything else falls in between. I have a request to display the table with only one address line with the option to expand/collapse the address cell to show the full address. I can imagine a number of solutions to this. (1) only output the first line and use Ajax to pull the full address on demand. (2) only output the first line, but store an array of all addresses client side and use that to toggle 1 line/full address display. (3) output the full address in the table, but use CSS to initially set display to one line, and jQuery to toggle between 1 line/full address display. I like this solution because it won't involve any changes in the backend code (solution 1 and 2 will). (4) another solution? I know how to do 1 and 2, but am curious about 3, and welcome other suggestions. Admittedly this is more of a CSS question than pure jQuery, but I'm curious if someone may have done this or if a plugin might exist?
[jQuery] validation showErrors error
I'm using the validation plugin to perform client side validation on a form that uses $.post. To be safe, I also re-validate all inputs on the server side. Ideally I'll never have a case where client-side validation passes but server- side validation fails, but in case I do, I want to display errors back that the browser. I have my server side code returning a JSON object. It contains a status, an errors object, and an info object. The errors object may contain multiple errors. $.post(ajax.php, formdata += 'from=calibtype=submit', function(data){ if(data.status == false) { // update form errors $.each(data.errors, function(fld,msg) { console.log(fld,msg); // See what's coming back. Looks OK! var v = $(#calib_entry).validate(); // because of scoping issues I need to redefine validator v.showErrors({fld:msg}); // = This is throwing a jQuery error }); } ... }, 'json' ); I'm testing my server side validation and have hard-coded bad value so validation will fail. When I call v.showErrors Firebug is showing an error within jQuery itself. Unfortunately the server I'm working against has a minified version installed (I've requested they install the full version). Until I can see where jQuery is failing, can someone who is more familiar with showErrors tell if the problem is how I'm calling it? The console.log call shows that fld and msg are both strings.

Other have offered solutions where you hide the links, etc. A variation of that theme would be to originally display the links with some inline JS, e.g., a href=mysite.html onclick=myPrematureClickSentinel() Where myPrematureClickSentinel simply returns false. In your document.ready() $(a).removeAttr(onclick); // get rid of all myPrematureClickSentinel $(a).click( function() { // your actual click handler goes here. }); You could chain those if you want.

I wrote this function to check an input field. I can fire it when the field blurs or when the form is submitted. If an .error is visible when the submit button is clicked, it won't be submitted until they are all gone. When I try to update to 1.3 this function no longer works. jQuery.fn.form_realemail = function () { return this.each(function (){ if ($(this).attr('value') != ) { error2 = 0; if ($(this).is([...@value$='@hotmail.com'])) { error2 = 1; } if ($(this).is([...@value$='@gmail.com'])) { error2 = 1; } if ($(this).is([...@value$='@yahoo.com'])) { error2 = 1; } if ($(this).is([...@value$='@msn.com'])) { error2 = 1; } if ($(this).is([...@value*='@'])) { } else { error2 = 2; } if ($(this).is([...@value*='.'])) { } else { error2 = 2; } if (error2 == 0) { $(this).parent().find('.error').hide(); } if (error2 == 1) { $(this).parent().find('.error').show(); $(this).parent().find('.error').text(Company Emails Only.); } if (error2 == 2) { $(this).parent().find('.error').show(); $(this).parent().find('.error').text(Enter A Valid Email Address.); } } if ($(this).attr('value') == ) { $(this).parent().find('.error').show(); $(this).parent().find('.error').text(Email Address is Required.); } }); }

[jQuery] Re: Best way to Table Sort using server side calls
By Toggle the sort I'm assuming you want to change a visual sort order indicator in the clicked th? As MorningZ suggested your click will fire an ajax .load. The .load's callback will: * populate the tables tbody with the return result set * manipulate the clicked th css to indicate a sort order change I know you mentioned you can't do client side sorting, but I would study the Table Sorter plugin and see how they change the sort order display. IIRC it involves toggling (or removing/adding) a class that has either a background up or down image. You can test the asc or desc state of the column by testing for a specific class, .e.g., $('th').hasClass('asc'); $('th').hasClass('desc'); On Mar 17, 12:59 pm, Tony K tony.kowal...@gmail.com wrote: What would be the best way to Toggle the sort using jQuery?

[jQuery] modifying parts of cloned inserted content

[jQuery] Global Object, Scope question
This is really a javascript question, but will use jQuery. When a page first displays I would like to save a bunch of data about a form. For example the IDs of all of the inputs and how they are originally defined. Depending on user actions I may need to restore individual form fields to their original state. I don't need to reset the entire form. I know how to use jQuery to select the original form elements, but am struggling with how to store them into an object that I can refer to and retrieve individual input data for later. // a global object that stores form data What goes here? How do I make it global and persistent? // a function that resets an field to its original state function resetField(id) { // refers to the global object, but how? } $(document).ready(function(){ // save initial form configuration how called? });

Restoring the input field's value is only one part of the problem. There are a number of other attributes that might need to be restored. Depending on how the backend code originally displays the form, a field can start out enabled or disabled. It can start out with a special class assignment. These attributes can dynamically change as the form is used. Therefore resetting a field may involve more than restoring the field's original value. What I was hoping I could do was store an jQuery object that contained all of the information about the field and somehow (magically) use that to overwrite the current representation of that same field.

[jQuery] Re: How do I adapt this code for multiple uses?
Ian, See the docs on how to develop a jQuery Plugin. http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Authoring. However, since your code applies to each instance of a given class and not specific elements it already appears to do what you want. For example I changed your form to have two inputs and gave the second one a maxlength of 40 for fun. I didn't change any JS code and both text inputs reflected remaining characters correctly. As long as you use that label input span structure and give the input class=word_count you can reuse that code. form action= method=post div class=input label for=field1Text:/label input type=text name=field1 id=field1 maxlength=50 class=word_count / span class=counter/span character(s) available /div !-- New Text Input here -- div class=input label for=field2Text:/label input type=text name=field3 id=field1 maxlength=40 class=word_count / span class=counter/span character(s) available /div /form On Mar 10, 5:42 pm, IanR i...@ianroke.co.uk wrote: I have got some codehttp://pastebin.com/mc99132cwhich counts how many characters have been entered in a textbox and subtracts it from the maxlength to show how many characters are left.

The problem I have is with how the plugin matches this data. I want the matches restricted to the names only and not the locationkeys. For example if someone types 100 all the locations with keys contain 100 show up as matches. That isn't desirable. Is this possible or do I need to have two local arrays: one with the names only and another that can be used to lookup the keys? I'll use the keys to make an AJAX call to get all the data for a chosen location. Thanks

[jQuery] photoshop like image navigator
Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for something that works a bit like the image navigation in Photoshop? I'm working with a large image and need a way for a user to be able to zoom it in and out and view the large image in relation to a thumbnail. The magnify plugin from Josh Nathanson (great plugin!) is nearly there but I need the large image visible initially and ideally be able to zoom in and drag around. thanks in advance Brad
[jQuery] blockUI, select box and IE6 (again)
I'm having the same problem that is documented at http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-en/browse_thread/thread/976e49897120d95c?tvc=2, but can't reply to that thread (too old?). To summarize the problem, with IE6, when blockUI is called the select boxes dissappear. When unblockUI is called they reappear. I have a form that has a number of multi-line select boxes, therefore this problem is very noticeable. The referenced thread above hinted at a fix, but didn't provide any details. Any ideas would be appreciated.

[jQuery] hover question
This isn't so much about hover, but about the selectors I've had to use within its 'over' and 'out' functions. Consider the following. I'm working on a project where I'll have to repeat this pattern often. I'll hover over a table's tbody, but will need to affect rows or even specific row cells within that tbody. // This will highlight a tbody's rows on mouseEnter. // The original row coloring will be restored on mouseLeave. // A tbody may have numerous rows. tbody.hover(function () { $(this).children('tr').addClass('hovered'); }, function () { $(this).children('tr').removeClass('hovered'); }); In the above I had to repeatedly specify $(this).children('tr') Is there a shorthand way to only specify it once in the over function and refer to that in the out? Similar patterns would apply to toggle, etc. Thanks!

[jQuery] Dialog Box Too Small
Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I have a dialog box on my page that pops up after clicking the link. My problem is that when it comes up, it is too small. My content requires the size of the dialog box to be both wider and taller. I've downloaded jquery-ui-themeroller.css from Themeroller. I've tried to add width and height to .ui-dialog, but it doesn't make a difference to the size. I can change the border width, and that changes... I've tried resizing the background image, but that doesn't change anything either. I made it 200px high and kept the width. How can I make my dialog box larger? Thanks, Brad .ui-dialog { /*resets*/margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; outline: 0; line-height: 1.3; text-decoration: none; font-size: 100%; list-style: none; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; background: #ff url(Images/Dialog/ff_40x100_textures_01_flat_0.png) 0 0 repeat-x; color: #22; border: 10px solid #dd; position: re -- Brad McIntyre

[jQuery] uiTabs - Reference to self during Init.

The problem I'm having is that in the handleTabLoad function I need a reference to the tab area that is being initialized. Is that possible?
[jQuery] Re: uiTabs - Reference to self during Init.
Let me try to better explain what I'm trying to do. I have a page that has 5 tabs on it. These tabs are loaded via Ajax. Each loaded tab can contain a relatively complex form. These forms also use AJAX. Some of these forms contain help text that may refer a user to features in another tab. I'd like to include links in the help text that can be used as tab switch shortcuts. The UI Tabs docs give an example of how to do this. var $tabs = $('#example ul').tabs(); // first tab selected $('#my-text-link').click(function() { // bind click event to link $tabs.tabs('select', 2); // switch to third tab return false; }); The problem I'm having is that if declare that first line when I load a tab that has the help text, it appears that it it totally reinitializing the tab object. I note that .tabs' load, select, and show option functions do have visibility to ui. I've changed my initialization code to this: var $tabs = $(#tabarea ul).tabs( { selected: 0 , disabled:[2] , spinner:'' , cache:true , ajaxOptions: { cache: false } , load: function(e,ui) { handleTabLoad(ui); // this doesn't = $tabs? } , select: function(e,ui) { handleTabSelect(ui); } , show: function(e,ui) { handleTabShow(ui); } }); My hope was that passing ui to handleTabLoad would somehow provide a reference to that tab control so that I could do something like this: $('#my-text-link').click(function() { // bind click event to link tabctl.tabs('select', 2); // switch to third tab, where tabctl was determined from ui return false; }); I've poked around with Firebug, but I'm not seeing what I need.

The last one will contain from 1-20 rows depending on your page size. You'll need to also output links that correspond to the various pages. Your Javascript will hide all all tbody, except for the page you want to display. Look at the jQuery show() and hide() functions. You'll need to bind a click event to each of the page links. That event would have a function that hides the pages you don't want to show, and shows the page you do.

[jQuery] Re: Determine if a Javascript has loaded?
Here is a different approach. Include the javascript source for the weather.ibegin.com in the body of your page. On load run a delayed function to see if it has written its forecast to your page.

[jQuery] blockUI styling question
I'd like to accomplish a couple of things with BlockUI. I suspect these can be done by changing styles and other settings but I haven't been able to achieve the desired affect. 1. I want the mask to be transparent. IOW, the user should not be aware of the overlay, but also shouldn't be able to interact with the page during blocking. In some cases my blocking is very short. Some users have commented What was that? What background color and opacity settings would I need to achieve this? 2. I'd like to position the blocking message so that it always appears in the upper right hand corner of the viewport. I also would like the message to not have any borders and would like for the message to be preceded by a spinning gif. Example text would be Reloading..., Saving..., Updating... Has anyone done anything close to this, do you have a style example? Is it best to $.blockUI.defaults.css = {}; and use my own style sheet? Thanks

[jQuery] Re: Store a Css class as a variable?
Matthew, .css() doesn't return a class Name. In your example it might return the background image url. Here's an example console dump from a banner of a site I work on: var foo = $(#banner).css('background-image'); foo url(http://www.mysite.com/img/homebanner.jpg) You can try something like this: var className = $(this).attr('class') and then use addClass, but that is assuming the matched element(s) has a class. I can see circumstances where that will return more than one class or could result in unexpected results. I don't know if there is a way to iterate over each of a jQuery objects CSS properties. If there is you could conceivably read each then set the css attribute of the target div.

Chris, A simple example that shows the background color of a link changing on hover. This same effect could be achieved through pure CSS. html head meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 / titleUntitled Document/title script src=jquery-1.2.6.min.js type=text/javascript/script script type=text/javascript $(document).ready(function(){ var bg = $(a).css('background-color'); // save to restore $(a).hover( function () { $(this).css({'background-color':'red'}); }, function () { $(this).css({'background-color': bg }); } ); }); /script /head body a href=#one/a a href=#two/a a href=#three/a /body /html This doesn't fade in and out but simply changes the background color. I tried animate instead of css, but I don't think that animate can change colors. If you really want a fade affect you may have to write a function that progressively changes the background color from orginal to final and vice versa. Search this form for animate change color. There might even be a plugin that will do what you want. hth I don't have access to a public test server to create a demo, but I'll see if I can create a test case.

[jQuery] Re: php mysql
I'm certainly not a jquery.guru but do use jquery for database update (php/mysql) I think from your post your thinking of jquery in the same league as server side languages like php ruby and its not. Its client side javascript with all the restrictions that brings but a much nicer way of dealing with it. Ashley's mention of understanding how you would do it using standard forms is really good as you are essentially enhancing not replacing that. jquery will still send information in much the same way as a form would though with the benefit of extracting page info from the DOM not just in form fields, not refreshing the page and hiding a lot of the background work. so for a very simplified psuedocode example in a row you want to update. Use jquery to grab the data in the row with something like $ (this).parent('td').text then put into a post call and use the callback to check the response from the php script which does the work with the database update $.post(, { name: data from row }, function(data){ if(data == 'crapped out') { alert(Damn it the script + data); } else { alert(Hey it worked, the database row is + data); } }); In your_script_that_works_with_the_sql.php you would check the post values and work with them exactly as you would with a standard form then just echo out the response to the update which gets sent back as the callback data. eg. if($result) { $return = 'updated'; } else { $return = 'crapped out'; } exit($return); On May 6, 8:57 am, John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have the same question.

I don't think an explanation would be voodoo - it'd be a lifesaver. I already understand the old ways - school me on the jquery. Thanks John This is a pretty big question. What you need to do is learn how to do it with regular HTTP interaction with the backend. Once you understand that you'll be able to adapt it to Ajax. A firm grounding in HTTP makes XHR pretty straightforward. Doing this right is not simple. You should probably read up on REST and understand which parts should GET and which parts should POST (or really even PUT/DELETE but that's often unused due to bad support and general lack of understanding). The take away point is that if you don't know how to do every part with regular forms and backend interaction already, doing it in Ajax will seem like insurmountable voodoo.

Okay. I figured it out. Since smartPosition was tracking the moving div, and since the moving div was always in the same place after the initial switch, the calculations weren't returning the div upon scroll up.
