I am currently using JQuery UI for several UI elements on my site. Is there a way to make the highlight and error bars thinner?
I am referring to the two things found in the lower-right here.
I imagine there should be a CSS property that I can change to fix this, I just can't seem to find it.
Solution: .ui-state-highlight p { margin-top:3px; margin-bottom:3px; }
On the jQuery page there is a margin on the p tag in the content. It should conform to the content that you are inserting. Can you post the problem you are having.

I've created a tablesorter through JSFiddle, and the best way apparently to show it on a site is through adding /show at the end. However when I add this to my site, and all the other ways I've tried there is a scrollbar within the tablesorter and the heading can be scrolled up because of the results and edit in JSFiddle.
I know that probably sounds like rubbish, so I've attached a link to my site where it apepears, as you can see it is scrollable.
Is there a way of disabling the scrollbar in the HTML, CSS or JavaScript so that when it appears on my site it is fixed.
I hope ive been clear, thanks.

I'm assuming you mean the scrollbar in the iframe that contains your JSFiddle? I think that iframe is taller than the "tabs" div containing it. I made an inline change to the height of the iframe to 530px (allowing for your header block) and the scrollbar isn't displayed.
So, I think you could just make the iframe smaller, or make your containing div taller, or set its overflow to 'hidden'. But, your page looks like it's going to contain a lot of data down the road. I'd suggest you look at adding the 'stickyheader' or 'scroller' widgets to your tablesorter to manage the overflow more gracefully.
<iframe src="//fiddle.jshell.net/tome98/abkNM/5961/show/light/" sandbox="allow-forms allow-popups allow-scripts allow-same-origin" style="height: 530px;"></iframe>
Not sure where to look for an answer, but here's my quest:
http://www.mobiliteitsvisie.nl/
On this site I've made a one page parallax, but when scrolling the main text moves underneath the menubar, but the headers (h3 & h4) seem to move over it...
But where would I need to adjust this? In the .css or in the .js file?
Thanks in advance!

Since you're problem is with the style you need to make a change to the CSS.
In your case you want to get the menu on top of all other objects. Just give the menu container a large z-index.
Add this to your css file:
header {
z-index: 100;
}
The z-index property specifies the stack order of an element.
An element with greater stack order is always in front of an element with a lower stack order.
Note: z-index only works on positioned elements (position:absolute, position:relative, or position:fixed).
Additional question about the same site. When scrolling through the site, the menu-item should change with every slide it passes. At this moment the last clicked menu-item is highlighted, even when scrolling through to the several slides. Is there an easy way to make that work in CSS? Or would that be possible by just adding a jQuery.nav.js to the index.html?
I'm having an odd problem with jQuery draggable this morning, I wonder if anyone else has come across this.
I have many small divs inside a large div. They are absolutely positioned: "position:absolute" in CSS for their class, with the actual position itself calculated and set in JS on demand.
Now I'm adding functionality to allow these divs to be draggable.
But, as soon as I make one draggable, it is given "position:relative" directly on the element, which as you might imagine, seriously messes up the on screen position.
Does anyone know why it changes the "position" like this or how to tell it not to?
EDIT:
Just realised there is a rather obvious answer staring me in the face - !important on my position:absolute! This seems to fix it. BUT I'm still interested if anyone knows why it sets "position: relative" like this (and doesn't either make it configurable or check first if it needs position)...I'm wondering what problems I've just stored up for myself ;-)
"I came across the same problem today. The reason was I was applying draggable() on a dynamically created element. I was 'later' appending it to dom. The element should be in dom when you apply draggable() (if style is being applied by a class). In short, when it finds no position attached with the element , it adds relative." - Jashwant
Firs do: .append(jElement) Then: jElement.draggable()
For some reason Jashwant put his answer in the comment to the question. So I thought it will be convenient to other to repost it here.
It also happened to me, but only on Chrome. Reason?
It was like this:
$("#div-popup").draggable({ handle: ".top", containment: 'document'});
Then I removed the containment parameter, like this:
$("#div-popup").draggable({ handle: ".top"});
So it's about the Browser (Chrome in this case), which sets position to Relative when you specify which containment the element will be draggable.
in my case it seems to be a race condition between the stylesheets and javascript loading...
i realized i'd made the mistake of including the stylesheets AFTER the javascript in the document head. they should be included BEFORE the javascript because $(document).ready() does not account for the CSS being loaded by the browser: https://stackoverflow.com/a/1324720/3633109
I'm trying to override the default behavior of list items and buttons in jQuery Mobile, which has text which doesn't fit on one line as hidden overflow.
If you view this on a skinny browser window or iPhone you'll see what I mean: http://m.gizmag.com
I'd like to be able to wrap the text in the h3 and p tags of each list item onto new lines.
Thanks in advance!
Try setting a style of white-space:normal for the elements.
I just did this with an anchor (<a>) element inside a jQuery Mobile listview-styled li, and it worked to wrap the text as I expected. I used Chrome's developer tools to determine where the CSS attributes were coming from and interactively changed them to make it work the way I wanted.

If feasible, enclosing it inside a <div> will also make it wrap. (But finding the affected element and declaring white-space:normal is the more proper solution)

I have a textbox that I am attaching jQuery UI's Autocomplete functionality to and I am using CSS to give it a max height via the example here. My problem is that doing this causes the z-index problem that bgiframe solves to come back again, but in a different way. The initial autocomplete menu is above all the controls underneath it, but when I begin to scroll the autocomplete menu falls behind them.
Any suggestions?
EDIT:
This is purely an IE6 bug.
As you can see, after scrolling down the autocomplete falls behind the other controls.
I could solve the problem by replacing offsetHeight by scrollHeight in the following line (from jquery.bgiframe.js) :
height:'+(s.height=='auto'?'expression(this.parentNode.offsetHeight+\'px\')':prop(s.height))+';'+
This change solved the bug for the autocomplete fields with vertical scrollbars. I could not spot any regression in other kinds of dialogs (but I did not run extensive tests).
You need to reverse the z-index order of the form elements (or their containers) using javascript. I.e., "Social Worker" has the lowest, "DX Code" the highest z-index.
You could change the offsetHeight to scrollHeight, like Siggen says, but I have encountered problems when there is only 1 result returned from the autocomplete. The 1 result is squished into a window that only like 2 pxs high.
I found a fix though.
When you have a data.length<2, you should use the offsetHeight, rather than the scrollHeight.
You have to modify autocomplete.js.
Locate this code:
if($.fn.bgiframe)list.bgiframe();
And make it this:
if($.fn.bgiframe){
if(data.length<2)
list.bgiframe({height:'expression(this.parentNode.offsetHeight+\'px\')'});
else
list.bgiframe();
}
Remember, this code should be used in combination with Siggen's fix.
I have used a combination of both parameter for the height like this:
'height:'+(s.height=='auto'?'expression(Math.max(this.parentNode.offsetHeight,this.parentNode.scrollHeight)+\'px\')':prop(s.height))+';'
Look at the max function. Now it is good with no scroll bar (shorter list and longer list as well)
and now the autocomplete component looks perfect in IE6.
