[jQuery] Re: :visible fails in MSIE8 (in a ThickBox)

 Okay, so jQuery 1.3.2 defines the visible filter like this:

 Sizzle.selectors.filters.visible = function(elem){
        return elem.offsetWidth  0 || elem.offsetHeight  0;
 };

 Now I've got a table of hidden (style=display: none) rows.  The user
 will click something that will .show() a specific row, and the whole
 table -- along with a lot of other stuff -- will be displayed in a
 lovely thickbox.

 The problem is that MSIE 8 assigns offsetWidths and offsetHeights to
 the rows; even those with display: none active on them.  In
 compatibility mode, MSIE will set the offsetHeight to 0, but there
 will still be an offsetWidth.

 Firefox doesn't have this problem; Chrome doesn't have this problem.

 I'm not sure if MSIE got wildly confused by moving hidden rows into a
 thickbox.  I know I've broken MSIE's rendering of other similar tables
 on the page, but I doubt those have anything to do with jQuery.

 I've gotten around it by using .addClass and .removeClass and
 filtering on that new class instead of :visible, but I'd rather know
 that :visible is working as intended in the long run.

[jQuery] Re: question re: .live() and .empty()

2009-05-30 Thread Brandon Aaron

The .live() method binds event handlers at a higher level than the
node(s) selected. So, in other words the events aren't actually bound
to specific nodes so they won't be removed when you call empty.

If you need to remove a live event, just call .die(). It is like
.unbind() but for .live() events.

 I'm debating using it in a plugin, but am wary because of what could happen
 with multiple instances of the plugin and maybe no ability to destroy it

 Hi All,

 Wondering if someone knows the answer to this:

 Using jQuery 1.3.2, if some items inside a div have events bound to them
 via .live() and then .empty() is called on the div will the events that were
 bound via .live() get removed? The .empty() doc says:

 http://docs.jquery.com/Manipulation/empty

 Note that this function starting with 1.2.2 will also remove all event
 handlers and internally cached data.

 But something I'm working on makes me think that the .live() events are
 not removed. I haven't nailed it down yet.

[jQuery] Re: Questions about $.live, Live Query and performance

2009-04-20 Thread Brandon Aaron
LiveQuery when used for events does not use event delegation. It binds the
event directly to the matched elements. The reason the latest version of
LiveQuery depends on 1.3.x is to take advantage of some internal changes to
jQuery, not because it uses live. The live method in jQuery uses event
delegation.
If you use LiveQuery *a lot* then you will most likely see slow downs. Live
Query tries to be non-invasive about its operations but if it is a large dom
with lots of queries, then it will be slow. You can minimize these affects
by using a context and good selectors.

The reason to use LiveQuery over live is if you need to do something more
than bind an event or if event delegation just doesn't work for the event
you are binding. Otherwise you should use live if you need to bind events to
a large number of dom elements that may or may not be in existence at
runtime. If it is a small number of elements and they exist at runtime then
you should still use bind.

 $.live and Live Query are both wonderful. I am hoping to put them to

 I have a few questions about $.live and Live Query and their effect on
 performance.

 Background: If I recall correctly, the original release of Live Query
 could have some performance problems. I don't remember if things
 bogged down when the DOM had a lot of elements, when you added a large
 number of Live Query events, did a lot of updating or exactly what.

 Question 1:
 What were the specific concerns around performance with the 1.0.x
 releases of Live Query?

 Now with jquey 1.3, there is $.live. $.live does not do everything
 that Live Query does, but does do some of it.

 Question 2:
 Does $.live use a different technique for handling events than Live
 Query?

 Question 2a:
 If it is different, are there any performance concerns using $.live
 like there used to be with Live Query?

 Live Query 1.1.x requires jquery 1.3. I am guessing that the new
 version uses $.live internally.

 Question 3a:
 Is the performance of Live Query better in the 1.1.x version?

 Question 3b:
 Are there some selectors that have better performance than others? or
 to say it another way, do all of the selectors perform the same or,
 for example, does
 $('input').livequery('click', function() { });
 perform better than
 $('input').livequery('change', function() { });?

 Using $.live or Live Query.
 Question 4:
 Is there any difference in performce between using
 $('input').livequery('click', function() { });
 vs
 $(input).live(click, function(){ });?


 I am thinking of really diving in to using $.live and/or Live Query. I
 am trying to get a complete understanding of all of the issues that
 may arise.

 Hi all,

 Doing this in a debugger gives:

 $(#x).width(222); // makes element shrink
 $(#x).width(); // 216

 The number returned from $.width() is equal to the innerWidth() (at
 least it is on my button, which has a border but no padding).
 When you set it though, if you set it to the value returned, it will
 shrink! It won't do this if you pass the return from $.outerWidth().

 This seems backwards; I would never expect that passing the return of
 a getter to its corresponding setter to change the return from the
 getter!

 Can someone tell me if this is a bug or is by design - and if by

[jQuery] API Browser for your iPhone and iPod Touch

2009-01-28 Thread Brandon Aaron
I wrote an API Browser as a Web App for the iPhone and iPod touch. It
downloads the docs to a local sqlite database for quick browsing of the API.
It is basically a proof of concept right now (the code is ugly and a little
buggy). However, if enough people like it I'll go ahead and take the time
the polish it up and fix the quirks/bugs. Let me know what you think, how it
performs, etc. BTW... If you add it to your home screen it will launch
without the Safari chrome.

Beware the first time you visit this site it will download the docs in XML
format (368KB) and then store them in the database. So be patient, the setup
screen will let you know what is going on and there will be a big Continue
button that shows up once everything is done.

http://brandonaaron.net/iphone/index.html

One bug I know is fairly annoying is that if you click the back button to a
long page it won't scroll. Just click back one more time and then go to that
page again and it will magically scroll again. I tweaked the iUI framework
to use CSS transforms for the slide animation and it seems to be causing the
issue.

It really depends on how you are using LiveQuery. If you are using it only

It works by referencing the method with bracket or array notation. You can
reference properties and methods of an object this way. For example:
var obj = { test1: 'test_one', test2: 'test_two' };
alert( obj['test1'] ) // alerts test_one
alert( obj.test1 ) // also alerts test_one


The other code doesn't work because your aren't looking for a property on an
object. To make it work you evaluate the expression and then call the method
like this.

(expr ? 'a' : 'a')();

However, since your function 'a' is global it is a method of the window. You
could use bracket notation to reference the method like this.

window[ (expr ? 'a' : 'a') ]()

 My first step was to simply replace 1.2.6 with 1.3b2 and continue using
 LiveQuery.  It feels like the events get registered, but when I drag, it
 seems as though the start function isn't being called (which is confirmed by
 setting Firebug breakpoints within the function that aren't triggered).

 I'd of course prefer to use the new $.live functionality, but can't figure
 out how.  There are other events in my code that I register as:

   $(.foo).livequery(click, function() { ...

 that I can convert to

   $(.foo).live(click, function() { ...

 and they work both ways with 1.2.6 and 1.3b2.  It's just that

   $(.foo).livequery(function() { $(this).draggable({ ...

 that I can't seem to get working either way (LiveQuery or $.live).
 Besides the helper not being generated, the drop event isn't caught either,
 so the whole drag  drop is broken.

 Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks!

[jQuery] Re: Use of getBoxObjectFor() is deprecated. Try to use element.getBoundingClientRect() if possible.

2008-11-29 Thread Brandon Aaron
What plugins are you using? getBoxObjectFor is a XUL method but
getBoundingClientRect isn't available for older version of Firefox. I'd just
suggest using the .offset() method from jQuery core. At any rate it is just
a deprecation warning. I imagine whatever plugin uses it checks to see if it
exists first and then uses it. When Firefox finally removes it, the code
should jump to the next branch. Unless they did browser detection :(

 Hi all, ive just started using jQuery, and also the livequery plugin

 I set up jQuery to automatically stripe a table, and also do a

 To do this I started using livequery to bind the events after the tab
 is loaded.

 Ive noticed the performance of the row mouseover row highlight is now
 pretty poor, and wondered if Im doing something wrong?

 Pretty trivial code

 $(document).ready(function()
 {
  $(.stripeMe tr)
.livequery('mouseover', function() {
$(this).addClass(over);
})
.livequery('mouseout', function() {
$(this).removeClass(over);

 Is there a reason this technique would degrade performance ?

It is most likely an issue with selecting the a tag by the href attribute.
Sometimes the href attribute gets serialized by IE. Try using the $=
attribute selector (

that a tag.

[jQuery] Re: LiveQuery with Tipsy (tooltip) help

2008-11-07 Thread Brandon Aaron
Are you using jQuery for the AJAX? Live Query really only works
automagically if you are using jQuery to modify the DOM. If you aren't using
jQuery for the AJAX, there are a few options. Live Query has an API doing
things a little more manual. After you load in the content from the AJAX
call run the following code:
jQuery.livequery.run();

That will invoke Live Query as if you modified the DOM with jQuery.

Hmmm ... you don't expect your CSS queries to throw an error if they don't
match an element do you? It'd be silly if it did. Then you'd need
a separate style sheet for each page instead of making good use of reusing
styles. Same goes for jQuery code. Matching zero or more elements is a
corner stone of being able to progressively enhance your web site/app with
unobtrusive javascript.

[jQuery] Re: LiveQuery won't allow explicit onchange firing?

2008-10-08 Thread Brandon Aaron
So this is an interesting use case. Typically you use Live Query to bind
events to elements that don't yet exist in the DOM. Granted it binds to
elements that already exist in the DOM as well. However, there is a
miniscule delay in the actual binding and the trigger is happening before
the event is actually bound. One way you can overcome this is like this:
function change(event) { alert( $(this).is(':checked') ); };

$('input')
.bind('change', change).trigger('change')
.livequery('change', change);

I'd say that this is a bug. I'm not sure when I can find the time to fix it
... but in the mean time you can use the above code to work around it.

 My problem is the chained change function call. It looks like

 custom events don't work either:

 $(input),livequery(demo.change, function(){

 This does work, but doesn't utilize livequery:

 Although maybe misunderstood the original question.

  Quickly looking over the jEditable docs, 'editable' isn't an actual event.
 You can instead use a function based live query like this:

 $('.editable, .bline_measure caption').livequery(function(){
$(this).editable(function(value, settings) { ... });
 });

[jQuery] Re: livequery and iui

2008-09-26 Thread Brandon Aaron
In this particular case event delegation might serve you better. Live Query
really only works if you are using jQuery methods to modify/manipulate the
DOM. The iui code does not use jQuery and that is why Live Query can't see
those particular updates.

Just use jQuery.noConflict(true) to rename the jQuery namespace to whatever

Now you can use test(selector) instead of $(selector) or jQuery(selector)

 The function I've attached with LiveQuery to the Add new question

 example, if I add 3 groups, then click the Add new question button
 for the second group, I get 3 DIV objects getting logged to the

 div.

 I'm obviously doing something wrong but the livequery documentation is
 rather sparse.  I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this, what

Close but in your example newWidths is an array of numbers. In your case
you'll want a way to extract the largest width from the array and then use
that value to animate the li width. Maybe something like this.

var width = $('li.hello img').widths().sort().revers()[0];
$('li.hello').animate({ width: width }, 'slow');

Thanks for a nice real-world example. :)

In testing this I found a bug and created a new release 1.0.1.

Oh ... you want to make sure the width of the li adds up to the width of all
the images? The earlier snippet just made sure the li was as wide as the
widest image. You could do something like this to add up all the widths.

var width = 0;
$.each( $('li.hello img').widths(), function(i,w){ width += w; });
$('li.hello').animate({ width: width }, 'slow');

As for the feature suggestion ... I think it is an interesting idea. It
might be a little out of scope for this little extension/plugin but I'll
have to give it some more thought. Most of the things you mentioned are
already very easy to do with arrays and probably easy to extend the Array

 Wouldn't it be a nice feature to add some built-in manipulations to the
 batch? i'm thinking 'sum' to add them all and return the result, 'concat',
 'join:,'  to join each with a comma in-between, 'average' to get the average
 of all integer values, etc. a kind of built-in callbacks if you like for
 most common operations.

 $('li.hello img').widths('sum');

[jQuery] Re: Attaching Events with Live Query

Adam,

Live Query works so nicely because it sits on top of jQuery. It isn't
working for you because you aren't using jQuery's methods to append the
content to the DOM. You can however manually run the registered live queries
by running the following: jQuery.livequery.run();

You might also investigate utilizing one of the event delegation plugins for
jQuery such as Ariel Flesler's Listen plugin.

LiveQuery has two types of queries: event and function. A function
based LiveQuery fires a given function when an element is added to the
DOM and another function, if given, for when an element is removed
from the dom. The function based LiveQuery is not attached to a
particular event. The docs are here: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/livequery

[jQuery] Re: How to bind to a dynamically created object

2008-02-03 Thread Brandon Aaron

Ugh ... large tables always needs lots of optimizations. First ...
you'll want to minimize the number of .append()s. Concat all your HTML
into an array and then append. Something like this:

var html = [];

for (var i in data) {
// generate your html like this
html.push('trtdblah/td/tr');
}

// once the loop is done ... make the array into one long string and
append
$('#eintragsliste').append( html.join('') );


Next, you are calling LiveQuery every time you append. That defeats
the purpose of LiveQuery. Call LiveQuery once and it matches all new
elements for you. None-the-less... When dealing with events on large
tables my suggestion is to use event delegation. This is primarily to
keep the number of event handlers to a minimum as having lots can
cause issues of their own. Here is a new plugin that handles event
delegation rather elegantly: 
http://dev.jquery.com/browser/trunk/plugins/delegate/jquery.delegate.js

You'd need to use it like this:

$('#eintragsliste')
.delegate('click', '.expanding', collapser_expand_all)
.delegate('click', '.collapsing', collapser_collapse_all);


If you wanted to still use LiveQuery you can use the following:

$('.expanding', '#eintragsliste').livequery('click',
collapser_expand_all);
$('.collapsing', '#eintragsliste').livequery('click',
collapser_collapse_all);


But remember to put whichever method you use (delegate or livequery)
outside the loop and use these methods for their strengths. And
remember ... optimize, optimize and optimize some more when dealing
with large tables.

Using jQuery.each will provide you the isolation you need to make your

jQurey.each( [0,1,2,3,4], function(index, num) {

You should also be able to write it like this:

})(i);
}

jQuery.clone(true) will only clone the events that it knows about ...
in other words ... it clones the events it bound.

You can use the filter method to select what you need. It would look

});

 I think you'd have to loop though them all checking the value.
 $(document).ready(function() {

   $(this).focus();

 Hello all,

 I recently started using jQuery in Greasemonkey scripts and am loving
 it.

 I have two Greasemonkey scripts running on a page. Script A adds an
 element to the page and binds a mouseover handler using DOM
 addEventListener method. This script is not using jQuery.

 Script B wants to trigger the event on that element added by script A
 using the jQuery .trigger('mouseover') method. But the event doesn't
 fire.

 Looking at jQuery code (1.2.1) and with the help of Firebug, I found
 that .trigger('...') fires if the event handler was specified using
 'on...' attributes to an element. But it doesn't fire if the event
 handler was bound via addEventListener. This seems to be true whether
 the element was native to the page or was dynamically added later by
 Greasemonkey.

 Is there any way I can make this work, short of merging the two
 scripts (which I'd rather not do), or rewriting the script A to use
 jQuery .bind() method to bind the event handler?

 Thanks for your time.

[jQuery] Re: LiveQuery (Discuss Please)

2007-11-02 Thread Brandon Aaron

I'd argue that it actually provides you more control over the element
in the sense that you will know when it is initially added or removed
from the DOM.

It is actually pretty smart about how it watches for DOM changes.
Thanks to jQuery's architecture this is all possible with very little
initial overhead. For example if you had the following chain:

$('...').css('...').attr('...').append('...');

Live Query wouldn't run until after the append was done even though
the css and attr methods are also monitored. It also doesn't apply
just to chains. The above could also be broken apart and Live Query
still wouldn't run until after the append was done.

$('...').css('...');
$('...').attr('...');
$('...').append('...');

The performance issues come about when you are selecting _lots_ of
elements with several Live Queries. It has the same performance
concerns as you would with regular jQuery selectors. For example to
increase performance give it a context.

$('div', '#myDynamicArea').livequery('...')

That will obviously run faster than just $('div').livequery('...').

As with all performance concerns ... don't get caught up in pre-
optimizations. After the app is built use profiling and experiment
with selectors to find the areas that are actually slowing you down.

Finally, Live Query will never bind a particular event to an element
more than once. In fact it _only_ binds the event (or calls the
callback) once per a newly matched element.

Live Query's main purpose is to solve a _very_ common problem in AJAX
development ... the need to rebind events to elements added to the DOM
after the initial page load. It does this _very_ well and on most
common uses there will be absolutely no noticeable performance hit.

 DOM changes and hence maybe not rebinding things in as efficient a

 make time for that, to ease my concerns

[jQuery] Re: LiveQuery (Discuss Please)

2007-11-01 Thread Brandon Aaron

Perhaps you didn't see the example page:
http://brandonaaron.net/jquery/plugins/livequery/test/test.html

Doing those same two examples without Live Query would require you to
write other helper functions to bind those events and to manually
monitor when an element is added or removed. Hardly just two lines of
code. Feel free to add an element to the list via firebug as well to
see how it works.

I personally feel that Live Query should not be put in the core. To
many people seem to think it is a replacement for bind and perhaps
that is my fault for making it a little to easy. Remember that the
power comes at the price of performance. Live Query is best used on a
section of your web site that changes via AJAX calls and you need to
bind events or even just know when the change took place. There will
be absolutely no noticeable performance hit when using it this way. It
is when you start using Live Query in place of your regular bind calls
that you will start to see performance drop.

Live Query should not interfere with any Ajax history manager nor any
hijax methodologies. Live Query is only calling .bind for you.

Also Live Query doesn't make you lazy ... it simply abstracts a more
difficult task into one line. The only reason to suspect you've become
lazy is b/c you are a programmer and I believe we are all a little
lazy at times. :p

Live Query is a very cool plugin but don't use it just b/c it is cool.

BTW ... the adoption rate has been pretty good from my perspective.

 A lot of us beginners don't get what itch is getting scratched. The

Try creating a small, trimmed down test case ... removing other elements
from the page. You should be able to find what is causing the problem then.
The only reason live query would be attaching the event to all a tags is if
your selector a[rel=sec] matches all your a tags. You might want to try
running some code in firebug to see what results you are actually getting
from that selector.

   action the the click event:
 
   $(function() {
   $([EMAIL PROTECTED]'sec']).livequery(function(){
   $(this).bind('click',function(){
   $(#top).ScrollTo(800);
   //showSector($('[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
   this).attr(id));
   });
   });
   });
 
   the commented out part is the function i eventually want to call, im
   just using the ScrollTo action for testing purposes
 
   The problem i have is the live query is adding the click action to ALL
   a elements, anyone come across this before ? or know how to add a
   click action to an element that is created on the fly?




[jQuery] Re: 1.2 bug? $(window).height(); always the same as $('body').height();

This is fixed in the latest svn.

 I have a page with content that goes below the fold.

 I'm trying to calculate the height of the browser's viewable area this
 way...

 $(window).height();

 ...but it always returns the height of the whole page (above and below
 the fold) - the same value as $('body').height();

 Is this correct behavior?

 For now, I'm using $.viewportHeight plugin to get by. I've searched
 the forum, and can only find a couple of vague references to this
 problem with no definitive answer.

 Thanks!

[jQuery] Re: Interesting post about conflict with jQuery and SWFObject

2007-09-29 Thread Brandon Aaron

I believe this issue will be resolved with the next release of jQuery.
It has to do with the document.ready detection. SWFObject uses
innerHTML which causes the conflict when the DOM isn't ready yet. I
haven't tested this yet ...

 If so and your solution differs from what this fellow has posted, how
 about lending him a hand.

[jQuery] Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: Chili 1.9 much faster

2007-09-28 Thread Brandon Aaron
First ... sorry this thread got so off-topic...

I can give you a couple of use-cases. :)  Lets say you have an element on
the page that needs to animate but only once it is  75% viewable. Another
good use is if you have a widget that uses lots of system resources, you can
pause or disable it while it is out of view.

 That's pretty cool. How are you using it?



[jQuery] Re: When will the API be updated for 1.2.1?

2007-09-27 Thread Brandon Aaron
The documentation is going through some growing pains. Currently the only
source of documentation for 1.2.x is on the wiki. I've been thinking about
how we can take those docs and create an XML file like we had before ...
currently the only idea I have is to screen scrape which if you look at the
actual markup of the Wiki is a pain and doesn't scale well for inclusion of
plugins, etc. I've made a little progress (still have a long way to go) with
using Hpricot to at least get the core docs into XML.

  I use this:
 http://jquery.com/api/

 all the time because it's the simplest, easiest, reference for jQuery
 methods and behaviours. But it still lists it's version as 1.1.2. Are
 there plans to update this reference?

 Alternately, I'd argue that there needs to be ONE single point of entry
 (on the jQuery site at least) for a straight up reference. I'm not talking
 about the fluffy examples found in the wiki area, but just a terse
 explanation of the method, it's parameters, and how to use it.
