If there are errors, the other fields removes the error message/class when the requirements are satisfied. For some reason, my email field does not change until I press submit again. Is this how it was intended?

I found this tutorial on creating a slideshow and it is very basic. I've been fiddling around with it and got it to slide the thumbnails horizontally instead of vertically.

What I've been trying to do and failed on both is adding a previous button and making the animation pause on hover over the container.

Here's their demo: http://nettuts.s3.amazonaws.com/585_slider/demo/code.html

I tried creating a reversed sift function to make the previous button...

1.     function sift_r()
       {
           if (index<(thumbs.length+1)){index-=1 ; }
           else {index=0}
           show (index);
       }

It sort of works, but once it goes back to the first slide, the opacity stays 0 for all of the images.

I've tried various ways of implementing a hover function on the #container, but none of them did anything.

none of the validation plugins and jquery tools validation seem to fit my needs, so i decided to follow a tutorial and write mine from scratch.

i followed the tutorial for the jquery side from here:
http://yensdesign.com/2009/01/how-validate-forms-both-sides-using-php-jquery/

i've incorporated a php email script i had for a while instead and copied the email validation from my jquery script into php so they match. jquery and php validation both works and email sends

[php]
if(trim($_POST['email']) == '')  {$hasError = true;}
     else if (!eregi("^[a-zA-Z0-9]+[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9]+[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+[a-zA-Z0-9]+.[a-z]{2,4}$", trim($_POST['email']))) {$hasError = true;}
     else {$email = trim($_POST['email']);}

[jquery]
var filter = /^[a-zA-Z0-9]+[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9]+[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+[a-zA-Z0-9]+.[a-z]{2,4}$/;

then i realized the email validation filters out newer, but valid addresses.. so i tried to validate it following this website:
http://www.addedbytes.com/code/email-address-validation/

[php]
$email_array = explode("@", trim($_POST['email']));
$local_array = explode(".", $email_array[0]);
for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($local_array); $i++) {
     if (!ereg("^(([A-Za-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_`{|}~-][A-Za-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_`{|}~\.-]{0,63})|(\"[^(\\|\")]{0,62}\"))$", $local_array[$i])) {$hasError = true;}
     }
if(trim($_POST['email']) == '')  {$hasError = true;}
     else if (!ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,255}$", trim($_POST['email']))) {$hasError = true;}
     else if (!ereg("^\[?[0-9\.]+\]?$", $email_array[1])) {
          $domain_array = explode(".", $email_array[1]);
          for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($domain_array); $i++) {
               if (!ereg("^(([A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9-]{0,61}[A-Za-z0-9])|([A-Za-z0-9]+))$", $domain_array[$i])) {$hasError = true;}
          }
     }
     else {$email = trim($_POST['email']);}

the new php validation works. i've been with php longer than jquery, so i'm having problems trying to convert that into a jquery filter which i can replace the old one.. can anyone help?

I have a website which I am developing offline and I have run into a problem. I am using several jQuery plugins together and I am not sure which is conflicting. I know scrollables from jQuery Tools conflict with ScrollTo, so I have already disabled that part. I have the following jQuery plugins embeded:

jQuery.ScrollTo
jQuery.LocalScroll
jQuery.SerialScroll
jQuery validation
jQuery Tools

I never got jQuery Tools tabs and SerialScroll to work together. On the main page, I have LocalScroll working for the entire window. I got jQuery Tools tabs to work in a subsection with ajax/history. I am trying to put a scrollable/serialscroll inside the ajax tabs. I think jQuery Tools scrollables was a little complicated for me to implement, so I went with serialscroll. I have a working test file with SerialScroll working the way I want, but when I move it to the main file, it breaks jQuery Tools tabs. Both the test file and the main file use the same javascript and they both work separately. What is conflicting?

The way I have my form set up, I have a line break between the input fields and their labels. By default, the Validation plugin puts errors after the input field. I am trying to put the errors next to the labels so it looks like...

Name: This field is required.
[                     ]

I've read the documentation and tried modifying the errorPlacement example, but I never got it to work the way I want it. Here is the form I am using.

1.       <form action="index.php#contact" method="post" id="feedback">
2.         <p class="first">
3.           <label for="name">Name: </label><br />
4.           <input id="name" name="name" type="text" class="required" maxlength="64" />
5.         </p>
6.         <p>
7.           <label for="email">Email: </label><br />
8.           <input id="email" name="email" type="email" class="required email" maxlength="254" />
9.         </p>
10.         <p>
11.           <label for="subject">Subject: </label><br />
12.           <input id="subject" name="subject" type="text" class="required" maxlength="128" />
13.         </p>
14.         <p>
15.           <label for="message">Message: </label><br />
16.           <textarea id="message" name="message" class="required" maxlength="1024"></textarea>
17.         </p>
18.         <button type="submit" name="send" />Send Message</button>
19.       </form>
