beforeload event in tab widget
I have a seemingly common situation where each tab performs an AJAX request to load in data into the tab panel. I am also using the cookie utility to remember the last selected tab. I want to display a "Loading..." message in the ui.panel element, which is easily accomplished via the "select" event, but only when a tab is clicked on: select: function(e, ui){ $(ui.panel).html("<p>Loading...</p>"); } However, if the selected tab happens to fire an AJAX request when the page first loads, there
jQuery UI skeleton theme
This probably is not a new idea but anyways.. I'm a front-end developer and used jQuery UI components multiple times, I think they are easy to implement and usually they do the job just fine. But, there's always but, most of the time our graphic designers want make changes to colors, backgrounds, icons etc. and that gives me usually headache. I have to overwrite UI's othrewise fine CSS in my own css and it feels like a hack (one element, multiple css). So my proposal is jQuery UI skeleton theme css.
Theme URI in Theme download
When one customizes their own theme using the theme roller, downloads it, implements it, then later decides they want to make small changes to it, for example changing the icon color for default button state. That person is currently SOL, because even though they have a hard copy of the theme, they can't go back to the theme roller and say, "Remember that theme I was working on last week? I want that theme, but change the icon color." The URI of the download page holds all the meta data required
Firefox Bookmarklet Get Theme
How feasible would it be to make it so when you use the Firefox bookmarklet on a page that uses a jQuery UI theme to give you a link to the ThemeRoller page with all the elements of that particular theme set? I had created a theme a long time ago and forgot to save it but it's still on my website and can't think of an easy way to get it back other than redoing the whole thing. Just an idea :) Mike
jquery.ui.tooltip: flexible width when using ajax
Hello, I know the tooltip plugin is still under development, but it's unclear to me where I should log suggestions/questions such as this one. If you go to http://flexin.be/site/en/TLD/publicInformation/100007.html?_s=0&, you'll notice a list of extensions we support at the right of the page. Hover any of the price tags you see, and we are asking the server to return the exact tax calculations from the server to display them in a nicely put tooltip. The issue we have with this is that the tooltip
VCS
I think it would be wise to change VCS from svn to git for jquery-ui.
Why should left and right keys trigger autocomplete search?
Can we ignore the left and right keys or make it an option to have these keys trigger the search action? It seems strange that moving the cursor left or right would trigger it. Add: case keyCode.LEFT: case keyCode.RIGHT: just before case 16: case 17: case 18: // ignore metakeys (shift, ctrl, alt) in the _create function.
Button GET\SET Value
Because the button is a part of a form element and can be used as a checkbox or radio, it should have a get and set value method. Though the values inherited from markup, i would propose to add this feature. For example I'm working with an Ajax form, and i need to change state of button each time i get a response, that kind of behavior i don't need while submitting the form to a URL.
