I'm trying to make a li-menu that use sIFR. What I wanna do is to make sIFR replace the first level of the menu but not the second level. The menu is only in two levels.
You can find the menu at: www.norrlandsoperan.se/default.asp?id=10135
I would really appreciate if you could make me a hint on how to make this work.
Many thanks.

If the sub menu is contained within the parent <li>, you need to wrap the text in the parent <li> in a <span> element. Then use a selector like ul#menu > li > span to replace just those elements.
Specify a selector like ul#menu > li to only get the first level of <li>s. I think that should work with sIFRs own selector engine, otherwise use jQuery (you can find in the sIFR documentation how to change it.)

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 looking for a solution that doesn't require JavaScript, jQuery or anything too advanced; mostly HTML/CSS as those are what I am restricted to using.
The idea I have is a layout with two smaller div classes within one div ID. Each box have their own content and are placed side by side. What I'm trying to accomplish is to create an anchor link within one div that changes its content to something else.
e.g. box 1 on default displays "abc" as its content while box 2 displays "def". When you click on an anchor link in box 1, the content would then change to 123-- without affecting what's in box 2 or moving it down with the anchor.
Hopefully that makes sense.
There's no code to edit/work off of so any help would be appreciated.
You can use the :target selector to hide both div, and show element with the ID in the URL hash:
div.MyBox {
display: none;
}
div.MyBox:target {
display: block;
}
Clicking an <a> tag pointing to #someId would then show that element.
I have created tab layout as in this example http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/#bottom with controls bellow the panel. I have 3 default tabs, which can't be delted and than user can add some more tabs and also delete them.
The problem is that the default tabs should be on the top like there http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/#default so because UI doesn't support two control panels, I have created new element looking like control panel on top <p class="ui-helper-reset ui-helper-clearfix ui-widget-header ui-corner-top tabs-header-top"></p> with fixed heigth. But now I don't know how to move the default tabs to the right position. I tried adding them position: relative; top:-20em; ,but to make this working, the whole tab container must have fixed heigth and that's bad, because I need it to stretch within the window to be as big as possible.
So is there any other way how to move the default tabs to the top?
Thanks
edit: here is example of my idea, but achieved with fixd heigth http://jsfiddle.net/L6QjK/2/
To be clear: This method is technicaly working, so the questin is not about making tabs with two control panels, but about positioning the tabs
Not sure if it will work, but try creating two DIVs, one with default styling and one with the bottom styling:
<div class="tabs">...
<div class="tabs tabs-bottom">
and then use $(".tabs").tabs(...)
So finally I managed to create two control panels on my own by changing the jquery ui code.
If somebody is trying to make same thing as I here are some tips:
1) To create multiple control panels, find this.list=this.element.find("ol,ul)").eq(0)
now, the .eq(0) selector causes, that onlz the first ul or ol is made to control panel, so I simply modified the find selector to this :this.list=this.element.find("ol,ul:lt(2))") and the :lt(2) selector will make first two ULs to two control panels. Now we have two control panels and it is all about css positioning, you can get isnpired here http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/#bottom to move one control panle to the bottom.
2)I am using schema, that the first control panel contains static tabs, and to the second one are added dznamic tabs. So I also needed to change the target during adding tabs. For this you have to find h.appendTo(this.list) and change it to h.appendTo(this.list[1]) because ad.1) this.list now contains two elements and I want the tabs add to the second one.
So finaly to make two control panels tab layout isn't that hard
On my jQuery Mobile page, i'm using a horizontal control group for some buttons.
But in some languages the text within these buttons is too long.
Instead of wrapping the text within each button, the buttons themselves wrap onto the next line.
this is the base code:
<div data-role="controlgroup" data-type="horizontal">
short button
really really really insanely long button is really really insanely long. No really, who makes buttons this big?
</div>
and with this css, we convince it to wrap inside the buttons. Otherwise the text is truncated with an ellipsis
.ui-btn-inner{
white-space: normal !important;
}
On the third page of this fiddle the problem is demonstrated
http://jsfiddle.net/koesper/R8Kwe/
Anyone have any ideas how I might tackle this?
Thanks in advance,
Casper
ps. Inspiration for the original fix came from Tosh in Jquery Mobile Multiline Button
You could set widths for the links in your control-group:
.ui-page .ui-content .ui-controlgroup a {
width : 49%;
}
This will keep them on the same line. Here is a demo: http://jsfiddle.net/R8Kwe/6/
Also, just to be thorough, the white-space : normal actually needs to be applied to the .ui-btn-text element which is a child of the .ui-btn-inner element (so it still receives the inherited value).
Trim your long buttons - that's a usability issue. If you have action buttons named that long seems like that just defeats the purpose of an action? Other than that I wouldn't use controlgroups for something like this. I would use a custom data theme & some grids to house my buttons inline.
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)
