[jQuery] jQuery 1.3.x XPath
Earlier version of jQuery allowed one to search for elements using XPath, but after the implementation of the Sizzler selector engine, the XPath support was lost, or so it seems. Any comments?

I have tried it, but it yields no results when searching for elements. What I loved about the xpath functionality was that I could have used the same functions on XML documents, not only on XHTML. I suppose another feature that has been lost is the custom psuedo selectors.

Any comments? Hi Neil, You're right that 1.3.x removed support for the [...@attr] syntax, but it had been deprecated already for a long time. Using [attr] will achieve the same thing. As of jQuery 1.2 (released Sept. 24, 2007), basic XPath such as location path expressions, was removed. There is an XPath compatibility plugin for those expressions athttp://plugins.jquery.com/project/xpath/ . Is that no longer working for you? --Karl Karl Swedbergwww.englishrules.comwww.learningjquery.com

[jQuery] jQuery.support IE6 or later
I fully understand why support detection is considered much better than browser sniffing. But I have yet to see a way to detect the flash/ selectbox bleed-through issue that exists in IE version 6 or earlier. For that reason, I think that jQuery.browser should be maintained in future releases of jQuery.
[jQuery] Class selectors not working when using jQuery 1.3 with Mootools 1.11
Hi I'm working on a project that used to implement Mootools 1.11. It has been decided however that we switch over to jQuery since it is much faster and more light-weight. However, because we have created numerous widgets in Mootools, we still have to use it while the jQuery equivalent widgets are being developed. We have implemented the noConflict method with various degrees of success. We have noticed that after upgrading from jQuery 1.2.6 to 1.3, that using the old Mootools 1.11 along with jQuery, renders the class selector useless. Executing something like jQuery(.myClass) or jQuery(div.myClass) returns an error: context.getElementsByClassName is not a function. It occurs in the following section: if ( document.documentElement.getElementsByClassName ) { Expr.order.splice(1, 0, CLASS); Expr.find.CLASS = function(match, context) { return context.getElementsByClassName(match[1]); }; } Strangely enough the expression if ( document.documentElement.getElementsByClassName ) yields a result of true, but context.getElementsByClassName is still undefined. The context in this case is the document object itself. I'm suspecting that it has got something to do with Mootools that is throwing a spanner into the works. Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Or has anyone got some comments on the subject?

[jQuery] Disable/Enable jQuery Added Events
Something I would like to do is to add several events handlers to an element and control the firing by enabling disabling it. For example: jQuery(.sample).click(function() { // do something }).disable(); Clicking should not fire the event until jQuery(.sample).enable() has been called. Have anyone done something similar?
