jQuery Tokeninput dropdown is under Colorbox window - drop-down-menu

I have got a problem with Loopj's jQuery Tokeninput inside Jack Moore's Colorbox window. The problem is that dropdown of Tokeninput shows under Colorbox window, as on screenshot below:
I think that the problem could be with this code inside tokeninput library (lines 343-347):
// The list to store the dropdown items in
var dropdown = $("<div>")
.addClass(settings.classes.dropdown)
.appendTo("body")
.hide();
because it is appended to body, not to colorbox window.
Could anyone help me solve this problem?
PS. I am using this lib also outside colorbox window, so appending it to colorbox probably will be a bad idea.

It should be possible to fix this issue by altering the z-index of the TokenInput's dropdown.
The z-index of a Colorbox is 9999, the default value for the TokenInput is lower than that.
Depending on which TokenInput version you're using - if it supports the z-index parameter, you could alter the value with that on initialisation. e.g.
$('#myID').tokenInput("http://sourceurl.com",
{
zindex: 100001
}
Else if it's an earlier version, try altering the value for div.token-input-dropdown in the token-input.css file.
I've put in a pull request for this issue on GitHub, but sadly, the project now seems to have sunk back into inactivity.

how to scroll to the loaded ui-view

I have a ui-view inside of my page.
When some button is clicked, the ui-view is loaded and replaced by some HTML.
I want the page to be scrolled down to the just-loaded part of the page.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance
The ui-router module has been updated to scroll to the ui-view by default. You can add the autoscroll="false" attribute on <div ui-view> to prevent this. The default setting is true which scrolls to the ui-view upon state change.
I would think it should be the other way around where you have to set the autoscroll to enable rather than disable but this is the functionality of the updated ui-router.
You can read about it here.
In the linked Github issue, it says that the default value is autoscroll="expr" but I have found that expr does nothing and that the default value is autoscroll="true" (which makes more sense).
On Route change it will scroll to the top of the page.
$scope.$on('$routeChangeSuccess', function () {
window.scrollTo(0, 0);
});
put this code on your controller. (Change the value as per your requirements)

kendoui validation tooltip in custom popup editor not positioning correctly

Please see jsfiddle for example, blank out First Name field to have validation tooltip show. In a normal form the validation tooltip positions correctly to the right of each element. But in the popup editor for the grid it still trying to position the tooltip below the element as if it where editing inline. I have tried <span class="k-invalid-msg" data-for="FirstName"></span>but it doesn't change anything. Is there a setting I am missing to get this working in popupeditor? I guess I could manually modify the .k-tooltip but I am hoping for something more built in that handles the positioning correctly, because I am not very good at css.
As you've discovered, the error template for the grid is different to that provided by the kendo validator when applied to standard inputs.
Unfortunately, the validator that is created internally by the grid does not pass along any errorTemplate that you might define in the options object and by the time the "edit" event fires, the validator has already been created and the error template compiled, hence why setting the errorTemplate in the manner you describe does not work. Really, I think the Kendo grid should respect any user defined errorTemplate option but until it does we have to hack a little bit.
The key is to define a custom template and to apply it in the edit event, but instead of using the options object, set the private instance directly. Not ideal, but it works:
edit: function (e) {
e.sender.editable.validatable._errorTemplate =
kendo.template($('#tooltip-template').html());
}
See this updated fiddle for an example of what I think you might be looking to achieve.
http://jsfiddle.net/nukefusion/eQ2j7/10/
(I would post this as a comment but not enough reputation yet...)
I'm successfully using nukefusion's solution. I, too, fought with the syntax error from jQuery for a long time and discovered through debugging that how you define the template is important. In particular, it appears that the template has to be written on a single line without any formatting, as in:
<script id="tooltip-template" type="text/x-kendo-template"><span class="k-widget k-tooltip k-tooltip-validation"><span class="k-icon k-warning"></span>#=message#</span></script>
If you try to make it "pretty" and format the html in the template, you get the syntax error. I don't know where the real bug is, as this sort of thing shouldn't cause an error. But it does and I stopped worrying about it once I got it to work correctly.

onclick does not fire in first Item in GalleryView 1.1

So I have a page using GalleryView 1.1 here. I like the behaviors just fine except that the left-most item's onclick event won't fire for some reason.
I also grabbed the 2.1 version from the GoogleCode page; the author's page at http://spaceforaname.com/ has gone. So here is a page implementing 2.1.
Since 2.1 has a bunch of behaviors I hate and seems to completely prevent my onclick events I would like to sort out the issue with the left-most item's onclick in the v1 page.
I have read through the code but failed to find what is interfering.
The function looks like this:
$('.myslides').click(function() {
//alert($(this).attr('alt'));
$('#big_pic').attr("src", $(this).attr('alt'));
return false;
});
and the items like this
<li><img src='g/weddings/slides/1.jpg' width='165' height='110' alt='/g/weddings/slides/1_big.jpg' class='myslides'/></li>
I have tried moving the class attribute to the LI, and also adding an anchor around the image and giving it the class but neither of these had a visible effect.
// Edit
The page validates and yes I know the big pics are blurry. Don't have them from GD so did best I could stretching thumbs.
Does anyone have an idea of how I should pursue debugging this?
So when inspecting the elements in question I found that the working thumbnails were all image elements but the non working first thumbnail was a div with id "pointer".
Since the author's site with the docs has evaporated I can say what function #pointer has in my filmstrip slides but in jquery.galleryview-1.1.js on line 319 I changed its width to 1px in the JS CSS and this resolved the issue of the obstructed onclick. #pointer may have a function I am not employing here. At any rate the issue is resolved.
Width was previously set to
'width':opts.frame_width-pointer_width+'px',
Now set to
pointer.attr('id','pointer').appendTo(j_gallery).css({
'position':'absolute',
'zIndex':'1000',
'cursor':'pointer',
'top':getPos(j_frames[0]).top-(pointer_width/2)+'px',
'left':getPos(j_frames[0]).left-(pointer_width/2)+'px',
'height':opts.frame_height-pointer_width+'px',
'1px',
'border':(has_panels?pointer_width+'px solid '+(opts.nav_theme=='dark'?'black':'white'):'none')
});
Also tried adding display:none but this resulted in jerky animation.

jquery colorbox and jquery date picker

I am using jquery colorbox and jquery date picker. My problem is date picker doesn't work in my popup window using jquery colorbox. I tried to used outside colorbox and its work fine.
Any help would greatly appreciated.
I tried the code below but still doesn't work.
onLoad: function(){
$('#date-pick').datepick();
},
I think you may write these codes $('#date-pick').datepick(); in colorbox's onComplete function. When all dom elements are ready then the code will work.
Well, for starters, to create the datepicker with jquery-ui its:
$("#datepicker").datepicker();
It may well be something else, but you really haven't shown us much. I don't even know if you're using the jquery-ui datepicker as you've provided very little information in your question.

Jquery Validation plugin and Colorbox

Does anyone know the best way to get the Jquery Validation plugin to run when submitting a form that has been loaded dynamically into a Jquery Colorbox modal window?
Add the validation set up to the colorbox callback. That way the color box has been loaded and the form exists before you attempt to set up validation for it.
$('selector').colorbox({...options...}, function() {
$('form',this).validate( {...options...} );
});
I was playing around with this and found a better solution (at least for myself).
$('selector').colorbox(
{options, onComplete:function(){$('selector').validate({}
});
Visually I can see when the lightbox is finished loading, it'll attach this function to the lightbox. It's the same as what tvanfosson posted, but I like mine for readability purposes.
