jQuery 1.1.1 update
If you're using jQuery 1.1, download immediately the 1.1.1 update. There are a few minor bugs that were fixed, but one was major for me. (see the full list here).
The first item: Setting the numerical value of a css property failed, for example: .css(”opacity”,0.5) (also occurred with zIndex, fontWeight), which by the way only affected IE, was causing my interface drag and drop not to work. For those of you not familiar with interface, it's a collection of components made in form of plugins that facilitate the development of Rich User Interfaces.
The particular problem I ran into was defining draggables. The code looks as follows:
$('#drag2').Draggable(
{
zIndex: 1000,
ghosting: true,
opacity: 0.7
}
);
{
zIndex: 1000,
ghosting: true,
opacity: 0.7
}
);
Behind the scenes, this invokes the $().css('zIndex', 1000) function, which for some bizarre reason was translated into setting zIndex to 1000px; go figure. What amazes me with that Firefox, the all standard based web browser, actually ran this code, and IE, the all forgiving-stimulating-bad-code-practice was the one that broke.
Anyways, the jQuery team quickly released an update and I have not experienced any bugs since. Keep it up.
