What do you think is the best way to deal if the user's browser is with javascript disabled? Block the page access telli...
I have some DIVs that I am using JQuery to hide and show using the toggle() function. This has been working fine. But I just recognized some relationships between some of these DIVs that would allow me to group some of them into a class. I was hoping that this would allow me to toggle the DIV class instead of each of the DIV ids. So ...
I have a page on which, periodically, I must change the URL to incorporate some GET parameters in the background using JavaScript, such that the page refreshes using the new GET parameters. So, for example, I'll periodically do window.location.href = window.location.host + '?' + ss; or window.location.search = '?' + ss; Where 'ss'...

I'd like to use TinyMCE to WYSIWYG support inline editing of a page's body. The tricky thing is that my page body isn't necessarily rectangular or in the shape of a normal textarea.

I am currently using $.blur(fn();) for form validation, but this only takes effect when the form field loses focus. Is there a way of doing it on keypress to get realtime validation? I suppose I could do the 'poll all fields every second' approach, but I am sure there must be a more elegant way? ...
This is a challenge question / problem. Hope you find it interesing. Scenario: You have a very long list (unreasonably long) in a single column.
