I have inherited a web application where the usual ability to press return in any of the input fields has been disabled for the very good reason that the page contains multiple forms, and the application would not be able to determine (or, so I am told) which form to action.

Need some advice on creating a floating menu that behaves very similar to what is used on the apple website shopping cart.

So a quick example: $("div").get(0).innerHTML; is the same as: $("div").html(); Obviousl...
