[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Hi guys,

I am not sure what the negative pixel issue is? i am not active in the
mailing list for the last couple of weeks, coz i am very pressed for time.
so, am sorry if i am missing something very obvious. BTW, it might take me a
few days before i can come back to normal participation in the list. sorry
for any inconvenience caused...

[jQuery] Re: Release: Accordion 1.5

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

In my opinion (and only my opinion) i think that it is kinda disturbing if
we hover on one item and immediately if we hover on another item, the
accordian doesn't open for the second item.

If you look at the mootools.net home page, you see the kwick(horizontal
acoordian). I am working on something like that. I am facing the same
problem there as well. But in the mootools site, if you hover from the left
end to the right end fast, you could see that the intermediate items
partially animate...

As far as i know this can be solved using the stop() method in fx. But the
stop() method is available only as part of the interface's animation
extension. John has promised that as part of the core in 1.2 though.

So, again, in my opinion, i would favor an approach where if we hover over
one item and then immediately if we hover over the other item before the
animation of first is complete, then the animation of the first item should
be stopped in the middle and the second animation should start. That would
be ideal. But i am not sure how easy or difficult it is.

I am keen and willing to do any help that might be required.

I am aware of that... coz, i have my plugins already listed there.
What, i was trying to convey was, although my plugins are listed there, i am
not motivated to effectively use the plugin web site for issue tracking and
feature requests because, i don't have the actual code in the repo.

[jQuery] Re: Plugin Repository - Report New Bugs and Request New Features?

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

For starters, i don't know if i have write access to the jquery svn
repository to checkin my plugin. Once i know that i already have it or not,
or if i am given one, then i might be more interested in tracking bugs and
enhancements from the plugin page itself.

Second, the plugin site is fairly new, and as u know we faced quite a few
issues using that in the first place... So, it is just a matter of time
before both developers and users get confidence in the repo.

Third, the main jquery page still points to the docs.jquery.com/plugins wiki
instead of the plugin page. Many people are still using that.

And, as Stephan says it is both a problem of education and the barrier to
entry. But, these are expected from the users to get quality extensions from
any open source software. Yet, it has to solved.

Again, i guess i am just rambling...

P.S - Among other things, i think it has a min width and a max width and
between those widths, you are able to dynamically resize.

[jQuery] Re: Release: Accordion 1.5

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Jörn, this is fantastic... very re-usable as well..

I have a question/suggestion though... When i hover over one of the items,
and before the animation completes if i hover over another item, the
animation for the second item doesn't occur. Now, i will have to move my
mouse out of that item and hover over it again to get the other item to
expand. Is it something that can be fixed, or is it a known limitation that
we will have to live by...

[jQuery] Re: [ANNOUNCE] LavaLamp for jQuery lovers released!

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

True, that is primarily because, in the test version i was using interface
plugin's animation, so that i can have access to the stop() method.
But, i thought, asking to include interface plugin(even a part of it) could
be a deal breaker for many. So, i rolled out a poor man's stop() function
within the LavaLamp plugin.
For most part it is good, but when you hover the mouse all the way from the
beginning to the end fast, the effect seems a tad choppy.

So, what do you suggest. I cannot makeup my mind. If i were the user, i
would take the bit of choppiness for another 10K download, but i don't know
if i am thinking in the right direction.

[jQuery] Re: how to get the height of a div?

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

$('#divElem').height() should work. You don't need the dimensions plugin
unless u want the height of the "document" or "window".

In case, you are looking for the height that includes margin as well, then
dimensions plugin has a method called outerHeight() that might help u.

[jQuery] [ANNOUNCE] LavaLamp for jQuery lovers released!

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Hi friends,

Thank you! both for all your patience and valuable feedback. This sure
helped shaped this plugin into whatever it is today.

LavaLamp is a very simple menu plugin for jQuery. As many of you already
know, fancy hover effects is what gives it character.
It was originally written by Guillermo
Rauch for
the mootools library.
I just ported it for the benefit of jQuery lovers.

You can get a complete overview and how to implement it in your site here -
http://gmarwaha.com/blog/?p=7

Special thanks to Stephan Beal who gave it its name and to Glen Lipka who
generously chipped in and helped with image sprites.

If you like it, don't resist the urge to digg it at
http://digg.com/design/Lava_Lamp_for_jQuery_lovers. I would be really glad
if more people came to know about it.
I would be happy to answer any questions, comments or suggestions you may
have...

Thanks again,
-GTG

[jQuery] Re: co-existing with mootools: help

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Interesting... I should admit that, we don't have a plugin that does exactly
that in jQuery. But there are quite a few upload related plugins that may
partially solve your needs.
Sorry, couldn't be of much help here... But i am sure, someone somewhere
(including Benjamin) is writing a plugin that exactly solves this need for
jQuery.

I will take a look at it in depth... But, in the meantime, can u try using
some other id for the div instead of "document". Sometimes crazy things like

[jQuery] Re: Classic noob questions

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

I recommend, you take a look at the jCarouselLite plugin. Even if you don't
use the plugin itself (if your intention is to learn), the code there will
provide some starting point, because i guess it solves the same problem that
u r trying to solve.

[jQuery] Re: co-existing with mootools: help

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

I don't think there is a way to make mootools play well with other libraries
when using the infamous "$". jQuery is probably the only library that
understands this concern and has implemented appropriate precautions in its
code base.

That said, to look at ur needs from a higher level, i think i will first
need to understand what is that u r doing with mootools that can't be done
in jquery. If we are able to easily achieve the same using jQuery, then you
wont have to use mootools at all in the first place...

[jQuery] Re: Dinamically add elements to a existing jCarouselLite

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

hi thorfinn,

Using the present featureset of jCarouselLite, you will not be able to add
content at run-time once the carousel is initialized.
You have 2 options
1. To add the "li" elements before u even initialize the carousel
2. look into jCarousel. Although a bit heavy, it has a host of features that
jCarouselLite does not support.

Lemme know if you have further questions.

[jQuery] Re: New Plugin: Live Query (previously called Behavior)

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

wonderful... before behavior plugin, i used to convince myself that the
extra effort is worth it because it creates more readability and reusability
by separating out methods that attach events etc.

But, now, u r making me lazy, and i am really glad u are ;-)

Thanks brandon, for this wonderful plugin. The utility of the plugin cannot
be overstated. anyone using ajax and unobstrusive javascript just has to use
it..

BTW, one quick question... do u have any idea how mootools / prototype
handle this scenario. Are there plugins, is it built into their core etc?

Ok, there is no way i can oppose that. You are an authority in what u r

That said, the interesting part is, in the case of my lavalamp plugin

solve the problem that could be solved by stopping animations in the middle.
I don't understand how this works then. I willd be glad if you can explain

Cool, That seems to look like an extension of my jkwick source. Was jkwick
the starting point? :-)

Anyways, i guess u r facing the same problem as i am at this point.
Initially i had it similar to yours, but the problem is the individual items
bump left and right especially when we are hovering onn kwicks from left to
right. I am sincerely working on getting a solution for that. If u find a
solution, then lemme know.

[jQuery] Re: request for comments - a periodic execution plugin/function for jQuery

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

I am sure westamastaflash will reply to ur query, but in the meantime, since
i am still awake (3 PM here), i thought i will do a good deed before i goto
bed.

try $.periodic(callback, {frequency: 5});

You were using quotes for the options object. That was probably the cause of
the problem

And you mentioned "period" instead of "periodic", and i am sure that was a
typo, coz, u said it works ;-)

[jQuery] Re: request for comments - a periodic execution plugin/function for jQuery

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

This is a neat utility plugin that i will definitely use... There are a few
suggestions - just thinking out loud though

First, to answer your question, i dont think u need to use $.extend, there
isn't a function called periodic in the core, so it should be fine...

My suggestion is, typically periodic execution is done to update some part
of the dom periodically. So, in addition to whatever the plugin is already
doing, if it works on the DOM (like $.fn plugins) and take a URL for ajax
request, and periodically update the DOM element with the ajax response.

Just a thought.

[jQuery] Re: Interface slider - get value of multiple handles

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

>> I don't think you can get both values using onSlide().

That might not be true... There is a method in interface slider called
SliderGetValues() that can come to ur rescue.
I guess that is not in the docs, but it is similar to SliderSetValues() that
is documented, just that this sets whereas we want to get.

[jQuery] Re: Draggables help

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Gordon,

I just wish u finish this widget in style... I also have similar problems
with interface slider and wasn't able to get around it... Interface slider
also has problems when executing callbacks. For example, when the handle is
dragged and dropped, the onChange fires, but not when you click somewhere on
the slider bar that moves the handle... That was pretty annoying, coz,
onChange events wont work fine in my cases... I sincerely wish u get it
right...

Lemme know if you want my help testing it... I will give my best shot to
break them if u need me to.

Also, remember, there is a jquery UI project taht is going to implement a
slider... But, i am not sure when it is due. Either ways, i think u r in the
right direction...

Also, can u post ur example somewhere where i can take a look...

Hi Kelvin,

The link that you have posted for the modified version of jCarouselLite and
for the patch is not reachable. The server is timing out i guess.

I would really like to take a look at the changes and the page in which it
wasn't working. This will help me fix the plugin for everyones benefit.

[jQuery] Re: is this possible in jQ: plugin namespaces?

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

I dont think it is possible Stephan. jquery core requires the plugin method
to be part of the $.fn (which is jQuery.prototype internally). This way
jQuery will be able to call the method in the context of the jquery object
itself. This is how we get "this" to represent the jQuery object itself. I
also wish there was a way to have our own namespaces. But atleast couldn't
find a working solution.

But if you wanted to create direct $.myPlugin plugins (like $.ajax). You can
have these in ur namespaces. Coz, there is no need for "this" reference
here.

i think u r doing it right... just that u will have to remove the attribute

can u provide more explanation on what u r trying to do and what is

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

cool, i guess, the concerns of unresponsiveness are now gone...

The name has been established (lava lamp). Thanks to Stephan Beal.

All that is pending is, add Glen Lipka's sprites(thanks a ton), remove the
dependency on hoverIntent (as we dont need it since i added ifx dependency)
and create a true reusable plugin out of it...(taking care of some useful
features like making it work without images etc) and release it.

Ok, lets see... I will try to get it out by this weekend maybe...

Thanks Glen i will incorporate the sprites tonight...

In the meantime, i tried using interface fx library for stopping animations
which should effectively make it perform exactly as the mootools version.
have a look at it and lemme know if the delay problem is gone...

http://www.gmarwaha.com/jquery/jfancymenu/test/test.html

But, ofcourse, this means that u need the interface fx plugin. But, it is a
start... I will experiment with Glens sprites and more optimized hoverIntent
tonight... Lets see what comes out of it...

Brandon: Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, i am planning to add the background
using javascript in the final version... Just wanted the js a bit clean when
i am experimenting with the animation issues and work arounds...

P.S. Glen: You da man

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Thanks Glen... I am not hardcoding the easing effects. That is an option for
the user.

About the button being 2 different images. Yes, i understand, that it isn't
very professional that way. They are the images of the original author
though and i don't have too much expertise creating images... any help from
an expert like u  will be sincerely appreciated. But, don't get me wrong...
i know u r busy too... So, if you can't do it i will understand, and will
try to roll out my own pretty soon...

[jQuery] Re: fancy menu - tell me what you guys think

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

wow, u guys overwhelm me ;-). I sent this message before starting for work,
and when i reach my desk i have such a pleasant surprise... Thanks guys...

Now, lemme answer some of your concerns...

@Stephan - I am sure u know what !important is. If your question is, why i
have commented that out, then, it is because, the original mootools author
chose to use images as menu items instead of text for some reason. Since he
used images, he had to hack IE 6 with gif versions of the images. So, he had
the !important hacks in place. But, since i figured it is cleaner and easier
to use text rather than images there, i didnt need those hacks, so i just
commented them out. ;-)

Also, the backout easing effect is causing the bubble to move out of the
target sometimes... I experimented with other easing effects, and it looks
cool for most of them. I chose to display "backout" as my first effect
because that is the same as
what mootools version uses and that will give you apples and apples to
compare and comment.


@Brandon - Thanks a ton... <>

@Mike - Thanks

@Andy - I am using the hoverIntent plugin, that is probably causing the
delay, but as of now i dont have a choice because, if i directly use hover,
then the effect will be spoilt. For example, if you move your mouse all the
way across from the first menu item to the last menu item and then back, you
will notice a long animation that slowly passes over one menu item after
another although your intent was not to hover over the interim menu items.
This can at present be solved with interface's animation library. I will try
that next. The good news is, once jquery 1.2 comes out, i wont need
interface plugin as well, coz John has promised a method to stop animations
for jquery 1.2

@Rick - Yes, you are right... You will find lot of documentation when this
little thing progresses into a  plugin. I really have an eye for
documentation. Take a look at my
jCarouselLite<http://gmarwaha.com/jquery/jcarousellite/index.php>and u
will know what i am mean ;-)   jus kidding...

@Rajesh - See comments for @Andy above. I guess that should address your
concern.

Thanks again guys... Based on the reponse it seems that it is worth making
this into a real plugin... I will start doing that...

[jQuery] fancy menu - tell me what you guys think

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Hi all,

I have ported this fancy menu over from mootools to jquery. You can take a
look at it http://www.gmarwaha.com/jquery/jfancymenu/test/test.html

The original mootools version is
http://devthought.com/cssjavascript-true-power-fancy-menu/

Tell me what you guys think. As always, based on feedback, we can consider
packaging it as a plugin or not...

Thanks in advance for the great feedback as always,

[jQuery] Re: What is wrong with this code?

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

No problem karl I like being "quoted" ;-)

But, the jkwick doesn't actually use the technique he needs. Instead it uses
a boolean called "running" to determine if an animation is running or not
and if it is running, then it doesn't trigger another animation until that
has finished. Actually it is just a hack to get around the issue of not
being able to stop animations in the middle.

That said, "Eridius", if all you need is to stop the animation midway, you
have to take a look at the interface Fx plugin. Just the way mootools has
moo.fx as a module, you get interesting FX features with interface plugin's
FX. One such thing is <> a way to easily stop
animations. Take a look here... http://interface.eyecon.ro/docs/animate

Eridius, come on, it is not a "lot of code"... the whole jkwick plugin(which
is packaged for reuse) is just approximately 1K leaving the comments out.

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

As far as i know, you wont be able to pass a form id to $.ajax method.
Unless you want to pass it through one of the available parameters.

[jQuery] Re: $.ajax question

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

If you are looking to submit a form using ajax, the you should take a look
at the form plugin. http://www.malsup.com/jquery/form/

This plugin offers 2 methods( among others) to submit a form using ajax.
They are ajaxSubmit() and ajaxForm().

More info can be obtained from the documentation.

[jQuery] Re: Creating plugins

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Eridius,

Whatever u choose is upto u, but i just want u to be make a clear and
informed decision...

Anyways, the demo now will reflect creation of class outside $(function())
method. I guess, u just have to try a bit more, coz every new language or
framework has its ways of doing things, and it takes some time and patience.

But, the funny part in this piece of code is that, it is not jquery at all.
It is plain javascript.

Have fun.

[jQuery] Re: Problem with animation on mouseover/mouseout!

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Nazgulled,

I understand exactly what u are after. They key to the solution is interface
animation's stop() method. I guess it will take some work to get this done,
and i sincerely can't squeeze in enough time to ponder around for a
solution. So, i would leave this for other jquery experts here, or request
you to try along the lines of the stop() method.

[jQuery] Re: Creating plugins

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

>> why do i get error saying that test is not a function of t?

Because you are approaching it wrong. This is how u can achieve what u want
to

$.ajax_request = function(options) {
this.options = {test: "test"};
}
$.ajax_request.prototype = {
test: function() {
alert(this.options.test)
}
}
var test = new $.ajax_request();
test.test();

You can see a demo of it here...
http://gmarwaha.com/test/other/testClassCreation.html

Although it is possible to do this, doesn't mean that it is the right way to
approach a problem. Mootools excels in giving class structure to javascript.
But jQuery feels class structure is a overkill and that is the reason why
class a class framework is not give out of the box.

Also, as John Resig mentioned in a reply to ur post, creating a class and
this members is such a trivial task which doesn't benefit much from
framework intervention. Anyways, if all you want to create is class
structure, there you go, you got the code and link to the demo...

Have fun... and welcome to the world of jquery, the world that created a
difference in my life...

[jQuery] Re: Creating plugins

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

When you create a plugin that will be executed on a selected set of DOM
elements, you use

jQuery.fn.myPlugin = function() {}

When you create a plugin that is going to be executed statically, like
$.ajax, you create it like this.

jQuery.myPlugin = function() {}

Effectively, jQuery is an instance of a class and jQuery.fn is nothing but
jQuery.prototype.
So. if you assign functions to jquery.fn, then you are creating plugins that
operate on instances of jquery (eg: when a set of dom elements are selected
using the $() syntax).
If you assign functions to jQuery itself, it can be executed statically on a
jQuery object itself. Like $.ajax.

Hope that helps

[jQuery] Re: Do we have something like Mootools:Kwick on jQuery?

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

I am working on something like that... it is not a completed version, but
works enough to get the point across.
I will be making it into a full featured plugin sometime this week.

Here is the link to it...
http://www.gmarwaha.com/jquery/jkwick/test/test.html

Hoep that helps.

[jQuery] Re: Why jQuery over Mootools

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Benjamin,

Think google maps... It is a nice class, which can be instantiated and setup
any number of times within the same page... So, in this case class offers a
convenient blueprint for further instantiation.
Hope that clarifies a bit.

[jQuery] Re: jCarousel vs jCarousel LITE

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Hi ashok,

It really depends on the number of thumbnails u have. If the number is not
too large, the jCarouselLite is a good choice, because of its light-weight
nature.
But, if the number is too large, then you will need the ajax facilities of
the jCarousel plugin.

Hope that helps

[jQuery] Re: Problem with animation on mouseover/mouseout!

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Hi, the demo that is posted was just a way to approach that problem...

As i mentioned already, you can use the hoverIntent plugin to approach it as
well...

If you are fine to use interface plugin, then you can use interface's
animate() method, coz, that allows you to stop animation in between...

Hope that helps.

@Ty, Since jCarouselLite supports any HTML content as its individual items,
i am sure it is possible as long as your requirement is not to scroll both
vertically and horizontally.
If i have some time this weekend, i will try to get a demo for that in
place.

[jQuery] Re: [ANNOUNCE] jCarousel Lite - version 1.0

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

olaf, jquery and javascript in general is for developers pal... plugins make
developers job easier and reusable, thats all. In any case, only a developer
can truly get the benefit of any javascript library, even as easy to use as
jquery.

But, assuming that is not the case, what is ur suggestion? If you have a way
for this plugin to handle this, i am all game for it... I am ready to listen
and implement as long as it makes the users life easier.

[jQuery] Re: [ANNOUNCE] jCarousel Lite - version 1.0

[Ganeshji Marwaha]

Hi Olaf,

u r absolutely right. When javascript is disabled, there is no need for a
button there. One should probably put the markup for the button through
javascript. jCarouselLite as such doesn't bother about how and where the
button is placed. In fact, the buttons need not be part of the carousel's
div itself. It can be anywhere in the page and can be created by pure HTML
or by javascript. So, it is upto the developer how to do it. Once the button
is created, all you need to provide jCarouselLite is just the selectors for
the button, and jCarouselLite will take it from there. Makes sense?

Andy and Marshall - Than you very much for ur kind words... It is feedback
from friends like you that motivated me to fix most(if not all) of the
issue.

Chris - Thanks for your comment. But, i think, you got it wrong. My site's
demos are specifically done such that disabling javascript will disable the
entire carousel. This is not the problem of the plugin itself. For example,
take a look at this page -
http://gmarwaha.com/jquery/jcarousellite/test/testDefault.html . Here, i
dont have that kind of setup. Here, the carousel should unobstrusively
display all the elements based on what your css style rules are... In my
case, i don't have any style rules except for the browser default. Thanks
for the feedback though. I love feedbacks.
