owen: hi - are you around ? |
| 16:12 |
|
owen |
Yup |
| 16:13 |
|
rch |
was wondering what the issue was with jquery ? |
| 16:13 |
|
rch |
i have need for some more javascript stuff... |
| 16:13 |
|
rch |
btw, the sweet Titles thing is very nice |
| 16:14 |
|
owen |
I'm sure it's possible to put together a good jquery system to do the thing we're trying to do. I was just trying to find something pre-made so that a lot of time wouldn't go into it. The jquery system I showed you relied on storing the popup text in an external file, and that wasn't a very flexible way to do things. |
| 16:14 |
|
owen |
I |
| 16:14 |
|
rch |
ah, right. |
| 16:15 |
|
owen |
I'm fairly new to jquery, so I don't have confidence that I could whip something together in a short time. |
| 16:15 |
|
rch |
you have an opinion on jquery v yui? |
| 16:16 |
|
owen |
Jquery is so lightweight, I'm attracted to it just for that. On the other hand, YUI has a lot of stuff built in that makes it very useful |
| 16:17 |
|
owen |
To be honest I haven't done enough with either one to really be able to make a judgement |
| 16:19 |
|
rch |
yeah, i'm looking for more of a cut-n-paste solution than to learn jquery (or yui)... too bad sweetTitles can't do what i need... |
| 16:19 |
|
owen |
It can't? |
| 16:21 |
|
rch |
I need to pop up a full marc record |
| 16:21 |
|
owen |
Oh, you're talking about something different. I thought we were still on title tooltips. |
| 16:22 |
|
rch |
ah, no... the tooltips are great as they are... |
| 16:22 |
|
rch |
but it would be nice to have the same code handle this, since it's for same site. |
| 16:22 |
|
owen |
What are the requirements? |
| 16:22 |
|
dewey |
the requirements are listed on koha.org/support/free.html |
| 16:23 |
|
rch |
i just need to hide/display the full marc on z39.50 search. |
| 16:23 |
|
rch |
there's an issue with that script, though, that makes it a little weird. |
| 16:24 |
|
rch |
the axynchronous zoom search forces several pages to load... so divs are defined multiple times |
| 16:32 |
|
owen |
I'm not sure I understand the problem... I'm picturing the z39.50 results list, and a button or link or something that says 'view MARC' ? |
| 16:32 |
|
owen |
And you'd like that click to open up a window that shows the contents of the MARC record? |
| 16:34 |
|
rch |
yep. tho' i'd rather have all the marc data in the searchresults page and show/hide div. |
| 16:35 |
|
owen |
You could have the click show/hide a div that uses AJAX to dynamically load the MARC as needed |
| 16:35 |
|
owen |
I'm not sure what would be involved in styling the data you'd be retrieving |
| 16:36 |
|
rch |
well, i can get it _as_formatted, and put it in <pre> tags, which works |
| 16:36 |
|
rch |
or as xml and apply xslt, which is too hard for me right now, but would be cool. |
| 16:37 |
|
owen |
Agreed on both counts. |
| 16:37 |
|
rch |
but i was looking for js library to add some nice style to the hide/show bit. |
| 16:38 |
|
rch |
tho, frankly, i'm having more trouble with the basic hide/show than i expected... |
| 16:38 |
|
rch |
too bad the documented ESCAPE="JS" doesnt' actually work in html::template :( |
