The Mutiselect page (http://lab.arc90.com/2007/07/02/multiselect/) contains the following line:
“Add a link to the javascript file in the page(s) you’d like alternating rows implemented”
Is there a mix up in the instructions with alternating rows?

Hello,
The tool is beautiful, but I can’t seem to make it work handling the onChange and onBlur events…
Do you happen to have any samples…
Thank you very much,
Jacob

Hello,
Is it possible to have the multiselect work without a form select element?
I would like to gererate the div’s from at server so i don’t need to put a select-element on the client first. This would also mean that during onload the div-elements don’t need to be created, which would be faster.
Another important fact is:
When using a backbutton (after sending a form post) in the browser always the last position of a select is kept on the option of the previous page. When eliminating the select, this problem will be eliminated.
thanks
Leon

Is there a way with this tool to limit how many options the user selects? So maybe they could only select 3 options?

Sorry if this is the wrong place, but I arrived on this page from the feedback link on the jQuery Multiselect page. There are a few bugs I’d like to report in jQuery multiselect.
1) line 450 in updateSelectTitle: when trying to calculate the number of selected items, the selector has a typo for the “select all” CSS class. It has selectall when it should be a9selectall.
2) line 134, 135 and 136: These 3 globals cause problems when you use more than one instance on the page. Move them into the “this.each” loop that starts on line 165.
3) line 174 in multiSelect_closeWindow: The callback function “multiSelect_closeWindow” is causing a stack overflow in IE8 (didn’t test other versions) due to an infinite loop. Inside the method it invokes “selectTitle.click( )” which is causing recursion. I’d suggest changing the “selectTitle.click( )” to “selectTitle.triggerHandler(“click”).
Otherwise, nice widget! :)

This component contains errors; if you select and unselect diferents checks, the value that submited is not valid.

Is multi-select *supposed* to work with IE6? It doesn’t for me.
The instructions at http://lab.arc90.com/2007/07/02/multiselect/ state “Currently, the alternating rows script has been tested and confirmed on the following browsers: Internet Explorer 6.0 …”
Why does it say “the alternating rows script”?

Hi:
I’ve found a problem with this amazing library. In your examples and download you use jQuery 1.2.1.
I’ve tested with 1.2.3 and 1.2.6 and it works. But if you use any of the new jQuery 1.3.* there’s a small problem. The click out of the layers of checkboxes that calls to “multiSelect_closeWindow” function, does not work. It does not close the layers. You can just close it clicking in the select field, but no out of the boxes.
Do you think you can fix this ? :)
Thank you very much in advance !

By the way, the error of the browser when you click out of the select is:
Error: too much recursion
Archivo de origen: http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js
Línea: 19
(I use Google CDN Libraries, but with local jquery libs the error is the same)

I don’t like this patch but at least solves the problem:
function multiSelect_closeWindow( )
{
select_state = ( select_state )? false : true;
selectContent.toggleClass(‘collapsed’);
//selectTitle.click( );
$(‘body’).unbind(“click”, multiSelect_closeWindow);
}
Simply use the “click function” lines inside the multiSelect_closeWindow function.
Until a solution is given, at least, works ! :)

For the stack overflow bug, removing the below line works
jQuery(‘body’).bind(“click”, multiSelect_closeWindow);
But then the multiselect needs to be closed by clicking on the arrow, not by clicking outside the component.

I have made an bugfix based on v1.1
row 231:
/* When the user clicks the select box title, display the contents. */
selectTitle.click(function()
{
select_state = ( select_state )? false : true;
selectContent.toggleClass(‘collapsed’);
if (select_state==false)
$(‘body’).unbind(“click”, multiSelect_closeWindow);
});
row: 174
function multiSelect_closeWindow( )
{
selectTitle.click( );
//(‘body’).unbind(“click”, multiSelect_closeWindow);
}

Hi! I love your bookmarklet, keep up the good work!
But lately I’ve been trying to use TBUZZ and discovered that, after logging me into my Twitter account, the pop-up window didn’t recognize that I am logged in. It still says: “Log in to your Twitter account…”, but I am logged in. I use Firefox on Win Vista, and the problem wasn’t there when I first used TBUZZ. Can you please help me?
