Programming By A Tool

This is quick one, so hold on to your… whatever. Want to get rid of that X at the top right of the modal “Control”? Well here it is: (The bold part, moron) jQuery(‘#WaitingDiv’).dialog({ autoOpen: false, bgiframe: false, height: 150, width: 200, modal: true, open: function(event, ui) { jQuery(‘.ui-dialog-titlebar-close’).hide(); } }); And that’s really it. [...]

So here’s a quick on for all you boys and girls… and anything else I might have missed. Say you want to check all check boxes in a grid or whatever, but you want it to toggle. So if if it’s time to check all, all get checked and then the next time the button [...]

You could look at this post as a self serving block that I will use to save stuff I don’t want to remember later. Or you could see it as a knowledge transfer that you the reader can learn from because I am a generous and giving tool. Whatever, I really don’t care. I won’t [...]

So this is sort of a repeat of another post, but I figured it has some use on its own. Say you have this: <div> <input type=”checkbox” name=”JqueryIdList” value=”1″ /> <input type=”checkbox” name=”JqueryIdList” value=”2″ /> <input type=”checkbox” name=”JqueryIdList” value=”3″ /> <input type=”checkbox” name=”JqueryIdList” value=”4″ /> </div> <div onclick=”getIds(‘JqueryIdList’);”> CLICK </div> And you need the getIds [...]

Good old Stackoverflow. Wasn’t sure how to post this without looking like I’m trying to get search engine hits. However, wanted to pass this one on anyhow. How to center a div using jQuery. Have used it. Works brilliantly. Although the: this.css(“position”,”absolute”); May be overkill since any “pop up” div I create already has that [...]

Course for me it doesn’t take much to learn something new, but let’s not get into that. So pop quiz, and one that doesn’t involve a hostage and shooting. jQuery(document).ready ( function() { for(var loopCounter = 0; loopCounter < 3; loopCounter++) { var tempThing = loopCounter; alert(‘in’ + tempThing); jQuery(“.someButton”).click ( function() { alert(‘out’ + [...]

So I’ll just straight up file this under “I really shouldn’t have” and not bother asking for forgiveness. For some reason I had it in my mind I wanted to see if I could take the stuff I learned from this guy and this guy and see if I could make a simple Whack A [...]

So you may have seen this post about how I came to create such a wonderful menu with no real purpose as of yet. Well that menu has been improved and can be downloaded here. Remember that question you never asked? Well once again I’ve answered it. To take the normal sliding menu farther I [...]

So for no real reason at all I had it in my mind that I wanted to make a horizontal menu with jQuery that would work like that weird scrolling menu thing that Macs have. No idea what it’s called. So basically I don’t need it, have no reason for it, but damnit I’m going [...]

So this could be filed under “I did it because I can” (which is a really good mantra in science…) and am not sure I’ll use it but it is useful in the concept. LIVE EXAMPLE HERE The idea is to set the hover on one div to show/hide another div WITHOUT having to use [...]
