Trac Report

Trac Report


Hello all:
If you can't tell, I've got an incredible amount of free time. That
bodes well for jQuery, and poorly for your inboxes. This is your
digest email for Trac stuff from today worth reviewing. I did this
because I don't know what view a more privileged person than I am has
that would show these changes. Responses to items probably fit best in
Trac so we can easily relate the discussion to the topic.
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/2747:
Changing the approach we have for .attr('href') could gain us some
consistency at the loss of backwards compatibility. What do you all
think about switching this to always return an absolute path?
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3178 (http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/1152):
Safari 3.1.2 Win chokes on quickExpr.exec( selector ); where
(selector.length > 49996). I don't think this is our problem. Close
it?
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3238:
I ran this problem down, but the situation isn't pretty. IE doesn't
pick up elem.filter unless it is set inline. Anybody have some
ridiculously clever idea for a way to get this information out of the
stylesheet?
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3245:
I didn't actually look at the attribute selection here, but the test I
came up with matches parallel with the selector results. This is very
similar to http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/2747 above. This is a good
start if anybody wants to come up with a solution...
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/2847:
IE will select comments on getElementsByTagName("*"). This patch
filters it out. Better ideas on how to handle it?
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3235:
An $.ajax call with bad information will throw an uncaught error,
preventing user defined error handlers. This patch fixes the symptom,
but maybe not the problem. (Do we need to pass around the caught
exception? Doing so was creating a situation where I was getting the
error handler called twice.)
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3240:
A disabled option or option group shouldn't be serialized. There is a
patch provided to fix the functionality.
http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3250:
Do we break the $.ajax() API for consistency's sake? How frequently do
people actually run into this?
