jQuery Forum

I'm using sortable to add drag/drop functionality to a table (setting it for the tbody). It works fine, but for some funny reason it disables the mouse's scroll button in Firefox, but works ok in IE (that's a first).  Any idea if I'm missing something?

I don't know if this is the place to discuss about plugins.jquery.com.   If so, I have a suggestion about the 'most popular' plugins.  Right now it's pretty much useless. It sorts the plugins by 'stars' only. To be any sort of useful it should have a tiebreaker of # of votes.  That way, a 5 star plugin with 30200 votes should show above that plugin I made yesterday and voted 5 star on myself. 
There are sooooo many plugins out there (most are just attempts of someone to do their own version of something already done) that there really needs to be a better filtering option. The proposal above should help a bit.

I'm using the great cloud zoom jquery plugin to add inside zoom to an image in my site, but I want to add a delay on the hover before the zoom takes place.
I created a jsfiddle so you can see the code in action http://jsfiddle.net/eTvKK/1/
hover over the image and the effect takes place immediately. I'm not sure how to make it wait say .5 seconds before it happens.
So far there is no jquery involved from me, I just put the image inside a <a class='cloud-zoom' href='address of big image'><img src='address of small image'></a> to make it work
Any ideas?

I've seen examples using 'find' that make me think I'm not getting the whole thing or I'm missing something.
Isn't $('#joe li')  the same as $('#joe).find(li)  ?   What would be the difference between those two statements and when would I use one instead of the other?

I want to add a tabbed area to a page. I checked the tabs widget and obviously it does what I need, but I was checking the accordion widget and saw that it also does tabs. My first thought is to use 'Tabs' as, well, that's what it's supposed to do best, or am I wrong and I should use accordion instead?

how would I do so a pop up window resizes to its content's width/height (plus browser header, etc.  basically, the minimum width and height so it doesn't show scrollbars) and centers itself when loaded?
