  1. Comment on Animated Scrolling with jQuery 1.2 by Karl Swedberg

    Learning jQuery (Sep 8 2008) jQuery Explore Article

    Animated Scrolling with jQuery 1.2 A few weeks ago I wrote about how to use jQuery and a couple modules from the Interface plugin suite to automatically have same-page links scroll to their target location when clicked (Animated Scrolling for Same-Page Links). Well, now that jQuery 1.2 is out, and I've successfully upgraded this site to it without a hitch, we can do the same thing with jQuery core alone. ... (Read Full Article)

  2. Comment on Working with Events, part 2 by Karl Swedberg

    Learning jQuery (Aug 23 2008) Explore Article

    Working with Events, part 2 In my last article, I described the common problem of events seemingly ceasing to work for new elements added to a document, whether by some form of ajax or by DOM modification. We examined one way to overcome the problem: Event Delegation. With event delegation, we bind the event handler to a containing element that remains in the DOM and then check for the target ...

  3. Comment on Simple Effects Plugins by Karl Swedberg

    Learning jQuery (Aug 21 2008) jQuery Explore Article

    Simple Effects Plugins jQuery has a nice selection of core animation effects, such as .show('speed') and .hide('speed'), .slideUp() and .slideDown(), and .fadeIn() and .fadeOut(). It even has a couple methods for toggling effects — the aptly named .toggle('speed') and .slideToggle(). All of these methods have optional speed, easing, and callback arguments — although a couple are special cases. The .show() and .hide() methods, when used without a speed, will immediately ...

    Learning jQuery (Aug 19 2008) jQuery Explore Article

    Working with Events, part 1 CSS and JavaScript are different in many ways, almost all of which are too obvious to mention. However, one difference between the two bears explanation, because it is often the cause of confusion and consternation, especially among those who are making the transition from CSS guru to jQuery novice. In fact, it was one of the first things I asked about on the jQuery mailing ... (Read Full Article)

  7. Comment on Quick Tip - Set Hover Class for Anything by Karl Swedberg

    Learning jQuery (Aug 6 2008) Explore Article

    Quick Tip - Set Hover Class for Anything Sometimes it's nice to be able to give users visual feedback when they hover their mouse over an element on the page. It's easy to do, of course, with a little CSS: #hover-demo1 p:hover { background: #ff0; } That little style rule changes the background of any paragraph that is a descendant of an element with id="hover-demo" to a nice bright yellow ...

    Learning jQuery (Jul 25 2008) Explore Article

    clueTip Plugin Beta 2 Beta 2 of the clueTip Plugin for jQuery is out the door and on the server. I’ve made a number of fairly significant changes (for the better, I hope), both to the script and to the CSS. One notable addition is the ability to apply a “jTip” style to the clueTips by changing the CSS, setting the new “arrows” option to true and the new “dropShadow” ... (Read Full Article)

    Slicker Show and Hide Last time I showed you how to make something appear and disappear on a web page. This time I'll show you how to do it with style. Like we did last time, we'll start with our $(document).ready() and put everything else inside of it. Adjust the Speed This time, however, we're going to adjust the speed at which our item shows and hides. To do so, ... (Read Full Article)

    More Showing, More Hiding We've received a number of comments recently from people looking for variations on the showing and hiding theme. For the basics, you can take a look at two earlier entries, Basic Show and Hide and Slicker Show and Hide. For a full-blown plugin solution with lots of options, look no further than Jörn Zaefferer's Accordion Menu. But if you want to try some showing and hiding ... (Read Full Article)

    Learning jQuery (Jul 9 2008) jQuery Explore Article

    Updated jQuery Bookmarklet About 1 1/2 years ago I put together a little "jQuerify" Bookmarklet (and blogged about it here). It's a nice little tool that allows you to play around with jQuery on a page that doesn't already have jQuery loaded and see the results immediately. Based on feedback from others, I've updated the bookmarklet a bit. Now, it first checks to see if jQuery is already loaded on ... (Read Full Article)

    Three Quick Ways to Avoid Widows A few months ago I threw together a quick redesign of the Learning jQuery site. It's nothing fancy, mind you, but I was itching to retire the thin veil covering the tired old WordPress Kubrick theme, so something had to be done. Almost immediately upon changing the font-family and font-size of the blog post titles, I noticed a few unsightly widows (just to clarify, ... (Read Full Article)
