Need the three "Options" to be hyperlinks that submit the "choice" form. When submitted, I would like the value to be the text of the option selected (i.e. value=Option1, Option2 orOption3) and all three to have the same name. (i.e. name = Options) I saw this and some other posts here, but did not work with my set up - many "hyperlink i...
I am starting work on a project to be able to grab an arbitrary HTML snippet (e.g. all code within a <div></div> block) and generate the minimal CSS necessary to render the snippet on a blank page while maintaining the same visual styling it has on the originating web page.

In mobile, the internet is slow. If I have a list of 500 images, this is going to take forever to load. I'd like to load the title of the image in a list, but as the user scrolls down, I want to start loading/downloading the <img> tag. How do I use Javascript/Jquery to do this? ...
I'm writing WatiN tests to test an Ajax web application and have come across a timing issue with Ajax requests. After an Ajax request is triggered by an action on the page, I'd like WatiN to wait until the request is complete before validating that the page was updated correctly. I have a feeling that the solution will involve eval-in...

Always replace the removed characters with '...' If file length is under the max the...

I am fighting with a very strange javascript behavior on a jQuery UI widget I'm trying to fix. IE7 (win XP), jQuery 1.2.6 (yes, it's an old version). The widget is a combo-box, which captures keyboard events and has special behaviors for the arrow keys. When I try to type the "&" character into the flexbox input field, I get strange be...

When using jQuery to dynamically build markup, it sometimes becomes useful to have it return the actual HTML that it's generating as a string, rather than as a bunch of jQuery objects. Is there a way to do this? For example, here: $("<strong></strong>").text("Hi there!"); I want to be able to extract the plain-text string "<strong>H...
