If you have ever played with jeditable, eventually you will get to this issue, which is dealing with the textarea. The Textile renderer on the official jeditable demo page works perfectly fine, but when I tried it I experienced quite some difficulty. Basically the text I enter would NOT be what I see after pressing the ok button, due to the html rendering of the newline character. I found a lot of people sharing their pain all over the internet: ...

After much research, at least at this point there is no way to include html tags in the mailto body. If a particular email client plays nice then you are in luck, otherwise there is no standard, or cross email client way to include html tags in the mailto body. During my research (just googling around…), I found this nice tool that can help construct the mailto link. You simply need to fill in the to, cc, subject, and body, then the mailto link will be generated for you. Check it out at http://jscode.com/generators/mailto_generator.shtml ...

Sometimes people prefer to use their own email client application to add their own styling. That’s when we will need to pass the relevant email content to the email client. It’s simple enough so I won’t explain much. Here I am passing the email info from php to javascript. $email_to = "johnsmith@somewhere.com"; $email_subject = "some email subject"; $email_body = "some long text, will need to escape this."; //$email_body = urlencode($email_body); // not this one, empty spaces will turn into +'s $email_body = rawurlencode($email_body); // this will encode correctly $email_url = "mailto:$email_to?Subject=$email_subject&Body=$email_body"; $('#email_btn').click(function(){ // bind to the email btn window.location = "$email_url"; }); That’s it! Now upon pressing on the email button, the user’s default email client should pop up a new email window with the fields pre-filled. ...

There are times to open links in the current window, sometimes in a new window, sometimes in background. Here is how to do it. function open2(url, opt){ if (opt == 0) // current window window.location = url; else if (opt == 1) // new window window.open(url); else if (opt == 2) // background window {window.open(url); self.focus();} } The syntax is a bit confusing, I guess these should be standardized in the future. ...

The default sample code for in jeditable has an OK button. That ends up requiring one more click to pick a value from a dropdown. $('.editable').editable('http://www.example.com/save.php', { data : " {'E':'Letter E','F':'Letter F','G':'Letter G', 'selected':'F'}", type : 'select', submit : 'OK' }); To take away that OK button, just take out that “submit” attribute. Magically, after picking a value from the dropdown the value gets updated. Kudos to the contributor who enabled this feature. ;) ...

I have been playing with qTip2 for a bit. Once you figure out the code to popup a tooltip, the next thing you think about is probably styling. I was looking for ways to set the background color from the default white to something else. If you give your qTip2’ed content, say a div, the background color yellow, you will still see white padding around your div. To take away that white border or padding, Have the following styling. ...

Below is what you need for a “select all” checkbox to toggle the rest of the checkboxes. Below assumes your checkboxes all have the name “my_chkboxes[]”. $('#my_select_all').click(function(){ $("input[name='my_chkboxes[]']").each(function (index, el) { if ($('#my_select_all').is(':checked')) { $(el).attr('checked', 'checked'); }else{ $(el).attr('checked', false); } }); });
