Lightbox 2 problems
Now, your prototype.js is throwing an error: "Object # has no method 'dispatchEvent'". Which browser are you using to test with? I recommend either Firefox + Firebug or Chrome so you can see these error messages easily yourself. …

How to 'push' data onto a webpage
Browsers don't support "push". A server cannot initiate a request and push data to the browser. A technique that Gmail's chat uses (and I'm assuming Facebook's as well) is the "hanging request" technique. Her…

jQuery form plugin> onclick handler problem
The reason your top code doesn't work is that on the "onclick" event you define a function. You don't actually call that function, you just define it. Remove the function definition. Try something like this: onclick="docume…

simple javascript moving effect
Check out jQuery's animate to animate over the div's position. I'm not sure how smooth it will be though, especially at a very slow speed.

Lightbox 2 problems
At a glance, it looks like you're loading 2 different copies of jQuery. The second copy (a local copy called jquery.js) is being loaded after the jQuery plugins. My guess is you're overwriting the plugins because that second jQuery copy re…

What Happened to Coded Preview
I guess if you used it you would know :) I liked the repeating backgrounds, simulated page-to-page navigation, access control, etc. Obviously nothing a competent web guy couldn't do on his own, but it saved a little time. Anyways, the merits …

onClick handler not working
Sorry, it's working for me. Check your document type and browser. Make sure there aren't any JavaScript errors anywhere. I tested in Chrome using HTML 4.01 strict. I'm not sure how exactly you plan to use this, but instead of using v…

Vertically Center Inline Image
Yes, I'm well aware of vertical-align, but unfortunately it doesn't actually center it. Sure, it's centered based on the line's x-height, but that's almost always a couple of pixels off. Try it, you'll see what I'm…

Help using jQuery to center an element horizontally and vertically over varying image dimensions.
It looks like the styling for the magnifier is based on a "span" tag but the span tag never gets created. In my tests, elem.append("") does not generate a span tag. Try this instead elem.append($("")). Also, your "…

Margin Extends Beyond Parent
Thanks wolfcry...I can't imagine an article that addressed the problem I was having more accurately. In fact, the instance which finally moved me to make this post was actually the h1 inside a header div :) At least now I understand why; I…

Capture Email DB for Client
Putting together a simple admin area is not very difficult; you don't have to put together full user support when you can just use a single hard-coded username and password (inside the code itself, do DB required). You're only talking abou…

Favorite text editor
I can't count the number of times I've gone back to the drawing board looking for the perfect text editor nor the number of text editors I've tried. If you're looking for a real text editor I think Ultra Edit will fit your perfec…

Store/Shops locations
Can you be more specific? I doubt there is a plugin as specific as jCreateStoreLocations (obviously, this would be a jQuery plugin), but you may be able to leverage other plugins or just jQuery itself. What exactly do you want to do?

Help with a menu..
Although pretty much anything (including this) could be achieved with JavaScript, I would actually recommend you don't use JavaScript. I think the same thing can be achieved with CSS. You ultimately want the navigation background shifted the e…

Fancy jQuery Clock (IE Fail)
I know this isn't going to make or break it, but it might be a good idea to get out of Quirks mode in IE; give that sucker a doctype. Also, your "text-align: center" on the body is throwing it off in IE7 (IE8 should be correct with a…

Event delegation and "sliding door" links?
Sorry, I thought you were trying to clean up your existing method for the purpose of making it less "hard coded" so you could be more flexible with the code inside the anchor. It seems like you ultimately want to stop events past the anch…

Event delegation and "sliding door" links?
I have an idea using jQuery (I don't really know any other libraries). In the event handler, try using target.parents('#demo a') to get the correct anchor if a nested element was clicked; this should work for any dom element and with …

SOLVED: problem making nav "on" states with jquery addClass
Either you've already figured out the problem and fixed it, or I'm not able to reproduce the problem you're seeing in Firefox 3.5, Safari 4.0 (PC) or IE 8. If you're already fixed it, then good for you. Otherwise, what browser ar…

File Uploader for Multiple Files or Entire Folder
"Stack" said:That cant be done with javascript. You would need a PHP or ASP script written to upload the files. I should point out that uploading a file from start to finish cannot be achieved completely with JavaScript; in fact, to get t…

drop down menus
Yeah, I just finished a page that uses the z-index property on the navigation and I'm not using absolute positioning either. I think it will work on any box whose position is absolute, fixed or relative. At the very least, you can make it relat…

drop down menus
Try the z-index property. This will allow elements to appear "on top of" other elements that appear after it in the DOM.

Disabling Played Flash Animation
I know Flash has the capability to communicate with JavaScript because the SWFUpload project handles all the uploading events in JavaScript while the actual uploader is in Flash. The develop of this project is pretty responsive, so you might just po…

Click event & Cursor style
I'm not sure I understand what the problem is. It sounds like you want the hand/pointer to appear when hovered over the "Click here to register" link. As shown in the screenshot below, this is already happening and it does so in Firef…

Javascript to PHP
What you need to employ is the much-hyped AJAX. Since the process of setting up an AJAX connection is different for different browsers and IMHO adds quite a bit of unnecessary markup within the page itself, I would recommend using a JavaScript frame…
