Thanks for the detailed answer!

Hi

I was wondering what js frameworks are going to be reviewed in your book and will there be some real full code examples or only theory?

Daniel.

Hi

I was wondering if the book is about pure js , or does it cover some ninja Technics that can be used in jQuery or some other widely used js frameworks

What knowledge does a reader will gain from reading this book ?

Daniel.

Hi

Does this book "Hello! HTML5 & CSS3" provides "best practices" / suggestions on when one better use css3 instead of js to achieve stuff ?

For example till recently I wasn't aware that its possible to use a delay (transition-delay) in css (css3) and thought its only possible to achieve with JS/Jquery ?

Well...

Actually the thing you need to do is: You need to hide the default button, and instead of it put you own custom button that will call the action of the original one


I did it once...

You can either do it with css or you can do it with jQuery

here couple useful google search strings :

1) INPUT TYPE="file" how to make a custom button
2) how to customise the input file button

and here couple of website i found with it :

http://tiagoe.blogspot.com/2010/01/css-style-typefile-tags.html
http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/inputfile.html

Hope it helps you,

Hi,

First of all the books sounds really promising!

but I wanted to know if the book contains real life situations and code examples at least for most of the chapters ? or its more a theoretical discussions ?


Thanks ahead,

Daniel

That's why I asked him

Hi

First of all , I must say that the name of the book made me really curious about the book

I got the following Questions:

Does you book is General Only? Or it got specific information as well?
Does it got language specific examples?

Does it have more "real life situations examples" or more "theoretical examples"

Thanks in advance,

I'm posting the question on this forum , cause after some googleing with relevant key words I was re directed to this forum and I got no answer on other forums :/

So, here goes nothing...

Hi

My web app runs on tomcat server, The clients are connecting from Citrix stations with SSO (wich runs on Apache , port 80), they can also log in without SSO by using the 8080 port (tomcat)

When the client try's to connect with the SSO (port 80) the web app works fine, except for the pages which includes the EXT js (its a JS Framework) files, on that pages a js error pops up with the "Ext is undefined " message :/, all the other pages are being loaded just fine

If the client logs to my web app without the SSO (by using the 8080 port) all the pages are being loaded fine - including the pages which includes the EXT js files,

I really got not even the slightest idea on what could be gone wrong with my web app, and how the SSO can conflict with the EXT js files...

Any idea will be much appreciated,

Thanks ahead,

Daniel.

Hi

I got a list of items that i present in <h:selectOneMenu on my page (the first page the user sees

the label that are show in the ><h:selectOneMenu are date + time , and the time itself is stored in the db in UTC without any + or - (e.g UTC +2)

In order to show the correct time in the labels of the ><h:selectOneMenu i'm adding the needed offset of the user timezone

the problem is that the ><h:selectOneMenu is being populated from the managed bean before i'm passing the offset from the xhtml page itself using jQuery $.post(

like this
><h:head> <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function($) { d = new Date(); var tz = -1 * d.getTimezoneOffset()/60; $.post("/servlets/TimeZoneFromClientServlet",{timezone : tz}); }); </script> </h:head>

any ideas how can i pass the TimezoneOffset to the application before the managed bean is loaded?

I was using IceFaces and i have to say its great...

But I moved to PrimeFaces (Cause I'm working on Google App Engine - and PrimeFcae were the only one that supported it) and its awesome!!!


never used RichFaces (although it looks nice)


Take a look on each of the above Show Case.... just type in google PrimeFcaes Show Case... Its WAY cooler than the other two (Way way cooler) PrimeFaces got tons of components... they adding new ones all the time and improving the existing

PrimeFaces got Themes... lots of... (and you can easily create your own.


So If you want to develop an application that will look great... go for PrimeFaces...
