I have a jsfiddle to show what I'm trying to do: http://jsfiddle.net/n9bSC/3/
The jsfiddle works well and does not demonstrate the bug.
In my actual code, the transfer finishes directly below the target (instead of directly at the target).
I've tried removing the float, adding various "position" styles, etc.
Any thoughts on what could be causing the behavior that I've described?
I don't fully understand this, but I think the problem is fixed.
Our CSS had:
body{
position: relative;
}
So I now change that to "inherit" on the page where I'm doing the jquery-ui transfer effect.
Then, I use conditional CSS for only IE7 to do this:
.joyride-tip-guide {
margin-top: -10px;
}
(I'm using Joyride and noticed that changing the body position messed up the Joyride tour step positioning for Internet Explorer 7.)

Is there a proper way to have 2 differently styled jquery ui buttons on the same page?
I am able to copy css around for the second button but there are a lot of different !important styles that I keep needing to add a second !important after the first in order to change the style.
for ex:
.ui-state-active {
background:none !important;
background-color:#E1E1E1 !important;
color:#000 !important;
}
I will then have to go and add right after (and it needs to be after
.new-theme.ui-state-active {
background:none !important;
background-color:red !important;
color:#000 !important;
}
the problem is these important styles are all over for each state so I have to mind where they go. Is this normal or is this usually handled a different way?
Are you using an older version of jQuery UI that requires you to use !important to override their styles? Newer version have fixed this: Use of !important in jquery-ui.css should be avoided.
If you can/are using a newer version, try getting rid of !important and instead rely on selector specificity to get your desired results.
I would recommend using jqueryui-speciffic css. Except difficulties with different button stylings, there may be performance problems while rendering larger amounts of buttons.
This resource is relatively old but I found it very valuable while using jqueryui css.
I have attached two pictures, the first shows the "desktop" of the webapp I work on, some of the icons you see open dialogs made of a <div/> containing an <iframe/>, but while on a normal pc it all works properly, on the iPad it seems there is a problem with the z-index of some elements, as shown in second picture.
The small red rounds with number inside are defined as follows:
.countComunicazioni {
position: relative;
background: url(/images/admin/menu_sgs/counter.gif) no-repeat center center;
height: 35px;
width: 35px;
color: #FFF;
top: -105px;
left: 120px;
z-index: 0;
font-weight: bold;
display: none;
}
.countComunicazioni p {
margin-top: -5px;
padding-top: 10px;
}
The markup is a <div class="countComunicazioni"/> tag and a <p/> tag inside.
I also noticed that now the problem also appears in Google Chrome V22, the numbers in red circles are always on top even if they have z-index == 0 and the dialogs have z-index > 1000.
As per this bug report ( http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=144518 ), the change seems to be intended, even if I would bet it'll broke many layouts, not only ours.
This problem was not present in previous versions of Google Chrome, nor is present on Firefox V15 or Internet Explorer V9, where everything is rendered problem.
How can this problem be solved? I'm no CSS expert, so I must admit I have tried little, if anything, so far... And also, who is "right" here? Is our markup incorrect, or does the problem lie in google chrome new rendering strategy?
EDIT
It seems I've been able to solve the issue shown in the two pics: all the dialogs generated from my web app are placed inside a <div/> with position:fixed placed on the very top of the body, now I tried to move the div to the very bottom of the page, and the layout seems now correct.
There is one more problem though: when opening a modal dialog, the opaque layer that is supposed to be created between the dialog and the below content, is actually created above it, see new screenshot.
How could this problem be solved? Does it require modifying our javascript or is it an issue with jquery ui itself?
Just found out myself that the way that chrome 22+ handles z-index has been altered.
Check out this awesome explanation here that I didn't write here...
http://updates.html5rocks.com/2012/09/Stacking-Changes-Coming-to-position-fixed-elements
Basically the way I understand it is that elements which have
position: fixed
now get counted with their own z-index layer so you'll have to adjust your pages accordingly to suit.
Hope that helps!
I have been using JQueryUI for various aspects of my site, and a small tabbed menu set was working well, except in firefox. The image below shows the same code rendered in firefox on top, and IE9 below. Note the gap under the tabs and the (possible?) increase in padding inside the tab. I have removed all my stylesheets from the site (the 2nd image) leaving just the base JQuery UI one, but the gaps still appear, and only in firefox.
The js call is as basic as it can be:
$("#menuTabs").tabs();
It's not often I have display issues where IE is better than firefox... Having removed all the CSS I generated, and made sure there's no styles being applied, I'm at a loss as to where to look next!
If you can offer any suggestions as to what might be causing it, I'd be a happy chappie!
[EDIT]
After scaling back the code as far as I could, and using only 'known good' libraries, it turns out that it is caused by it being in a table cell!
Here's some code you can have a play with! http://jsfiddle.net/XVHTk/
It does however work when "Normalized CSS" is checked, so it could be padding inherited from the cell maybe?
[EDIT #2]
Right.
So.
It turns out that CSS styles applied to a table to remove padding and margins and borders and so forth are not enough. You have to include cellpadding="0" and cellspacing="0" in the table definition otherwise the jQuery tabs have some extra padding around them.
Odd.
jsFiddle with table and no extras: http://jsfiddle.net/XVHTk/1/
jsFiddle with table spacing/padding stripped: http://jsfiddle.net/XVHTk/2/
Why the HTML cell properties are being transferred into the tabs, I have no idea. I'm just happy to have fixed it!
This is caused by a bug in the ui-helper-clearfix class. See ticket #8442 and the associated fix. As you can see from the ticket, this was fixed in 1.10.1. I've created a fiddle showing this working properly with 1.10.1 and using 1.8.x with additional CSS to fix the issue. The latter shows that if you can't upgrade to 1.10.1+ right now, you can just include the following CSS:
.ui-helper-clearfix:after {
border-collapse: collapse;
}
I have a jQuery UI dialog on a page of mine. The "X" in the upper right-hand corner is made possible by this little piece of CSS:
.ui-widget-header .ui-icon {
background-image: url(images/ui-icons_222222_256x240.png)/*{iconsHeader}*/;
}
The problem is that that doesn't work. It only works when I add a leading slash like this:
.ui-widget-header .ui-icon {
background-image: url(/images/ui-icons_222222_256x240.png)/*{iconsHeader}*/;
}
I know I could just make this change in the jQuery UI files, but that doesn't seem right. It seems hacky, plus, when I upgrade to a newer version of jQuery UI, all my changes will get blown away.
How can I make my jQuery UI images work? I don't know if the fact that I'm using Symfony2 matters here but I thought I'd mention it just in case.
Should work provided your files are in the right place. This other SO Question has lots of references that illustrate how relative urls in stylesheets are relative to the stylesheet itself, not the containing document.
So as long as you aren't breaking up the jQuery UI download and moving the assets around, should work with a relative URL just fine.
I had the same problem.
The problem was the name to the CSS-file in my index-file.
First I had jquery-ui-1.10.1.custom.css. I changed it to jquery-ui-1.10.1.custom.min.css and then it worked.
I developed a good site layout which works like a charm in Webkit and FF based browsers... but in IE 7 and 8 everything get broken up like.
I've never seen so much difference between Safari/Chorme and IE. I tried different DOCTYPEs but there was no difference.
If I remove all the jquery css everything works fine.
You can see it working on [removed]
Can anyone hint me on how to solve this mess?
You have a compatibility issues, I think you need to override the ui-state-default and .ui-state-hover classes on the buyitui.css file to fit IE.
You can use firebug in firefox to go throught the css files.
To overide the css, create one css file and put all the overrides on this file and place it on the bottom of all the css files. Assuming you make sure you are not using inline style sheet.
EDIT:
You need to override this three:
<div class="clear"/>
<div class="separator" style="width: 950px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; float: right;"/>
<div id="pie" style="float: right;">
The Problem seems on the clear class you have above the separator. When you do clear both, all the floating is cleared and the separator is getting up of the page with the height exanding almost all over the page.
Try to change this and you will see the changes:
This could not be the exact solution, but it really points out the problem on your pages.
on the clear class
remove the clear:both; or make it clear:none;
on the separator class
add float:right and margin-right:200px;
on the pie id
add float:right; and margin-right:200px;
the jquery accordion was what was breaking everything, regeneratd and problem solved (just the regular no standars on IE)
