Over the past few months I've been fielding an increasing number of
support requests via Twitter (for Cycle, BlockUI, and Form plugins).
In some ways it's a nice way to respond to simple questions but
obviously it's not well-suited for more in-depth questions and
responses. I generally direct people to this Google Group for
anything non-trivial but I'm wondering what others think about
leveraging Twitter for simple Q&A. Thoughts?

Anyone familiar with this plugin? The docs say that it supports
colspans but it doesn't appear to do so. The script has a
checkCellColSpan function defined but it is never invoked. I really
need colspan support.- 15-Feb-2009 06:20 PM

I've received many email requests for this feature and I'm happy to
say that it has finally been released. A demo is available here:

I've been getting a lot of email questions about the Form Plugin's
compatibility with jQuery 1.3. A couple weeks ago I updated the
plugin to fix a minor compatibility issue with the file upload logic.
The latest version (v2.18) is available here:
http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/form/jquery.form.js
Documentation is here:

TypeError occurred at line 1017 when ret[i] referred to a script
element (FF3.05).
1016 if ( jQuery.nodeName( ret[i], "script" ) ) {
1017 ret[i].parentNode.removeChild( ret[i] );
I've just uploaded a new version of the Cycle Plugin:
http://malsup.com/jquery/cycle/
This new version adds some new transition effects, the ability to
create custom transitions, and the ability to transition on a click
event rather than a timeout. But the biggest change is an overhaul to
how transitions are defined. Transitions are now defined using a
plugin scheme. This means you can create your own transition
definitions, plug them in to the Cycle Plugin, and then use them by
name. This provides a lot of flexibility, and together with the
custom transition support lets you create some pretty wacky stuff.
The documentation provides lots of examples.
Cheers!

In case anyone missed it, Google recently released an API for mashing
feeds on the client.
http://googleajaxsearchapi.blogspot.com/2007/04/announcing-google-ajax-feed-api.html
It's really quite cool (and fast). Below is a short demo of how it
works. To try it, replace [your key] with your Google API key.

I've added file upload support to the form plugin and I could use some
help testing it out. If this feature interests you then go ahead and
grab the beta plugin at:
http://malsup.com/jquery/form/file/jquery.form.js
File upload support is baked right into the plugin and there are no
external dependencies. The plugin will automatically detect file
input elements and use an iframe to submit the form if there are files
to be uploaded. No extra coding or metadata is needed to take
advantage of this new feature. In addition, even though an iframe is
used instead of the XHR object, callbacks and global triggers still
work as expected (so any code that you have in place to display
activity indicators or blocking elements will still work).
However, there are some challenges when using iframes in this manner.
For one, it is quite difficult to determine if the submit operation
succeeded or failed. The iframe becomes the target of the submit
operation and so that is where the server response is written. The
form plugin does its best to determine the data type (html, xml, etc),
but the status is always 'success' unless an exception is caught
during the type determination. (Note that dojo and YUI haven't
figured out how to solve the status problem either.)
I've prepared a sample page with several forms here:
http://malsup.com/jquery/form/file/
If you use this page for testing *please* be kind to my server and
only upload small files! I'd really prefer that you download the
plugin and integrate it into your own test environment if possible.
I've done some testing on FF, IE and Opera and the results are
encouraging. I don't have access to Safari so I'm sure there are
issues lurking for that platform.
If you're interested in the code you can find it all tucked into the
end of the ajaxSubmit method in a function called "fileUpload".

http://jquery.com/discuss/- I just posted a new version of BlockUI. I bumped the version to 1.0
just for fun.
Changes:
- Element blocking with messages; you can now have custom messages
appear over blocked content when blocking a subset of the page.
- Improved "settings" support; it is now much easier to override the
default blocking styles, including the overlay itself. So for
example, using a blue overlay instead of white is a one-liner.
- improved Opera 8 support
Examples and documentation can be found at: http://malsup.com/jquery/block/
The plugin is available at:

http://jquery.com/discuss/- I've just rewritten my Taconite Plugin and added some pretty cool
features. If you're not familiar with Taconite, it's an easy way to
effect multiple client-side updates with the results of a single ajax
call. With this latest version there is absolutely no code required
to process command documents returned from the server. The plugin
detects taconite responses and automatically processes them for you.
Other changes:
- Available commands now include almost everything in the jQuery API
- Vastly improved logging/debug support
- Fully extensible

PS: For anyone using my old xmlExec plugin, this is a drop-in replacement.

http://jquery.com/discuss/- The latest version of the form plugin has some new features that you
may not be aware of.
New Functions:
resetForm, clearForm and clearInputs
// invokes the form's native 'reset' method
$('#myForm').resetForm();
// clears all (appropriate) fields in the form
$('#myForm').clearForm();
// clears matched fields
$('.myStuff').clearInputs();
New Options for ajaxSubmit and ajaxForm:
resetForm, clearForm
// resets form after successful server response
$('#myForm').ajaxForm({ resetForm: true });
// clears form after successful server response
$('#myForm').ajaxForm({ clearForm: true });
As always, the latest form plugin can be found at:

http://jquery.com/discuss/- I've been trying to chase down a problem with one of my unit tests.
The issue is that evalScripts is executing and appears to find a
script tag where none exists. Looking further, it seems that 'find'
never returns a jQuery object of size 0. For cases like the one I was
testing, where no match exists, find returns a jQuery object like
this: [undefined]. That is, it has a size of 1 but element 0 is
undefined.
Things work fine in 1.0.4, but in the current SVN code the following happens:
// alerts 1 (should be 0)
alert($('no-such-tag', this).length);
// alerts 'undefined'
alert($('no-such-tag', this)[0]);

plugins in my lite build the javadocs are not stripped (but they are
from core). The min and pack builds seem to work just fine. lite.js
looks like it should work but it doesn't (for me).

I just updated the form plugin to fix a bug found by Zach Tirrell.
There was an error in handling pre-selected options for
'select-multiple' elements. Details about the bug can be found here:

Thanks, Zach!

http://jquery.com/discuss/- I just checked in some more changes to the form plugin. The methods
were reworked to use the standard plugin style for specifying options.
The signatures for ajaxSubmit and ajaxForm now take just a single
argument which is an object literal. Here are the details from the
docs:
-----------------
The following options are supported:
target: Identifies the element(s) in the page to be updated with the
server response.
This value may be specified as a jQuery selection string, a
jQuery object,
or a DOM element.
default value: null
url: URL to which the form data will be submitted.
default value: value of form's 'action' attribute
method: The method in which the form data should be submitted, 'GET'
or 'POST'.
default value: value of form's 'method' attribute (or 'GET'
if none found)
before: Callback method to be invoked before the form is submitted.
default value: null
after: Callback method to be invoked after the form has been
successfully submitted.
default value: null
dataType: Expected dataType of the response. One of: null, 'xml',
'script', or 'json'
default value: null
semantic: Boolean flag indicating whether data must be submitted in
semantic order
default value: false
...
The dataType option provides a means for specifying how the server
response should be handled. This maps directly to the jQuery.httpData
method so the following values are supported:
'xml': if dataType == 'xml' the server response is treated as XML
and the 'after'
callback method will be passed the responseXML value
'json': if dataType == 'json' the server response will be
evaluated and passed to
the 'after' callback
'script': if dataType == 'script' the server response is evaluated
in the global context
-----------------
I've updated the example page and unit tests to reflect these updates:
http://malsup.com/jquery/form/
Note: Like the previous update, this version of form.js requires
jQuery 1.02 or later.
Cheers.

http://jquery.com/discuss/- I've updated the form plugin once again to fix a bug in ajaxSubmit
which I found while unit testing. I thought I'd take this opportunity
to summarize the changes made recently:
1. Incorporated Matt Grimm's optimized serialization code.
2. Defaulted the form method to 'GET' per Klaus's suggestion.
3. Fixed ticket #160 using suggestions from Renato and Jörn.
4. Fixed bug in ajaxSubmit which caused inconsistent callback args in
post-callback method.
5. Fixed bug in image submit element coordinates (requires dimensions plugin)
6. Updated documentation in the source file.
I think (hope) everyone is on-board with the changes listed above.
I'm also suggesting two other changes:
1. Rename form plugin's current "serialize" method to "formToArray"
2. Create a new "serialize" method in the plugin which returns the '&'
delimited string.
These last two items may cause issues for some but to me they are far
more intuitive than what we currently have and I think the discussions
earlier this week were leading in this direction. Currently, the form
plugin's "serialize" method returns an array of objects and core's
"serialize" method returns a '&' delimited string.
On a final note, I've updated the demo page to include a link to run
the unit tests. If some of you Safari users could run the unit tests
I would appreciate it.

Unit test: http://malsup.com/jquery/form/test.html
