JQuery, XOOPS and Internet Explorer 6

OK, IE is a dick, but it's the dick most people use.

I'm using JQuery to make some tabs in a bunch of blocks. A more eye-candy interface and all this. OK, everything is going fine... except on IE 6.

I've used JQuery before in non-XOOPS sites and it works fine, but I build my XOOPS sites using the more complex default theme. I think the problem is that IE is selecting nothing when I write something like:

$('div#example ul').tabs();


I don't even know how to learn what's worng. I've spent this morning looking for known issues regarding IE 6 and Jquery, but did not find anything useful.

This is the site:

http://www.anince.es

Help needed. Thank you.

jquery is my favorite script of its class simply because it has minimum of code and does more then those using prototype or whatever else.

So far i successfully used it in xmspotlight module and regular XOOPS blocks an example can be seen at http://test.pierdtimp.ro/xblock/
..which later was placed by david in a dummy module and works with no problems in XOOPS

What particular jquery plugin you try to insert in xoops?

I'm using Tabs.

It works flawlesly on Firefox, but it fails on IE and Opera (!). This last is more surprising.

Opera error console reads:

Quote:
Inline script thread
Error:
name: TypeError
message: Statement on line 11: Type mismatch (usually a non-object value used where an object is required)
Backtrace:
Line 11 of inline#2 script in http://anince.es/
$(document).ready((function ()
{
$("div.round-container").corner("round 15px");
$("div#bottomCcolumn.tabs > ul").tabs({fxFade : true, fxShowSpeed : "fast"});
$("div#bottomCcolumn > ul").css({backgroundColor : "#990000", color : "#005500"});
}
));


BTW, I'm also using the round plugin, and as usual, it works on FireFox, but not on IE.

I can't believe it.

This line also makes it fail on IE and Opera:

$(document).ready();

This is the simplest function, the initialization of all stuff. I just updated JQuery two hours ago and haven't modified it.

How is it possible?

FOrget it, I found a solution. When calling jQuery, don't use $, but simply "jQuery" like this:

jQuery(document).ready();

The problem is that XOOPS own javascript defines a function named $, just like jQuery. One overwrites the other.

hi,

example in "head" :
<{$xoops_module_header}>


<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<{xoAppUrl xoops.css}>" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen,projection,print" href="<{xoImgUrl css/layout-soup.css}>" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" title="Color" href="<{xoImgUrl css/style.css}>" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="<{xoAppUrl /jseffects/jquery/jquery.js}>">script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    JQ = $;  //rename $ function
script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<{xoAppUrl /jseffects/jquery/pluginpage.js}>">script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<{xoAppUrl /jseffects/jquery/toggleElements/jquery.toggleElements.pack.js}>">script>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<{xoAppUrl /jseffects/jquery/toggleElements/toggleElements.css}>" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="<{xoAppUrl /jseffects/jquery/toggleElements/toggleElements2.css}>" />


In the plugins “.js”, to think of rename the “$” by “JQ”

Thanks, Kris.

OK, we have two solutions that seem to work. I'd like some feedback about both.

I use jquery a lot and in my module yogurt it is very used

Just had a look at xoops.js and yes it uses a function called $

I can change my calls to the function $ to jquery or JS as kris suggested yes but I hadn t any problems till now of compability, maybe cause I declared my js through $xoTheme->addScript ?

Is there a cascade system like css for javascript ? Or will I have problems in all cases just for redeclaring the function with the same name?

A sad day :(

And please XOOPS core developers think about changing the core function $ to anything else but we can t have an incompability with such a great script library as jquery is.

Would like to hear more about it.

I found a very nice workaround. Put it in the wiki.

In jQuery, the $ function is just an alias. Just use the original jQuery function. So, instead of...

$(document).ready(...

write...

jQuery(document).ready(

That easy.
