Hi all
I have a form with a couple of input fields, embedded within spans. I am
using script.aculo.us for dragging and dropping, and want to reorder the
input fields that way. The input fields are display:inline because I
want them all on the same line.
Does anyone know of a smart trick to be able to drag these input fields?
Just setting their disabled attribute doesn't work, because then they
get no events. Not setting disabled just causes the fields to show a
text cursor when you try to drag. I have a working solution with
absolutely positioned blocks on top of the inputs, that drag the fields
with them, but I find it quite ugly.
Anyone any better suggestions?
Thanks

You need to do for <span>'s what has been done for <div>'s with drag and
drop.

put them inside a div, the div will get events. , drag the div.

I tried it, but clicking inside the <input> element within the DIV will
still cause normal cursor handling for an input, it will not allow me to
drag the input field.
At the moment I'm just putting a padding around the input, so that you
can drag the span or div, but it would be nicer if one could drag the
whole input field around, instead of just its thick border.

Maybe you could put a transparent div over (Z-index) the input field, and
make the visible one follow the covering one...

That works, but it's inelegant. I just hoped one of you guys/gals would
think of something elegant.
Thanks for thinking with me.

Can't figure this one out. The "validate" function below checks to make sure the field "names" is
not null. "validate" actually calls "isEmpty", which scans the field.
Here's the situation. <input> for "names" first existed in an html file. The test worked just fine
there. If the field was filled, the test would pass. If the field was cleared after having been
filled, it would fail as it should.
The field is then passed, via POST,...

Hello,
I'm trying to put together a form with a very tight table formatting.
However, every time I put an text-type input field in, the browser
pads the area to the right of it with space. I've tried to eliminate
it several ways, but it won't go away.
It looks like it's forcing at least one space (line break?) in after
each field, and then there's some mystery padding on the right that
also refuses to go away. I've put up a demo of...

Does anyone have thoughts on whether the text-transform attribute of input
tags should apply to the displayed text in the browser? It's not
*enclosed*, which I think is what the CSS2 spec refers to, and KHTML
doesn't do this, but Gecko and IE both do.
An example may be found at

If you look at this page in IE or a Gecko-based browser, the input field's
text will be in allcaps, but in...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
