restrictive place holder - Specifying a set of values makes the place holder restricted.

jQuery Fundamentals

0

The jQuery library provides the jQuery function,

var listItems = jQuery( 'li' );

1	var listItems = jQuery( 'li' );

Is same as…

var listItems = $( 'li' );

1	var listItems = $( 'li' );

Which select all ‘li’ elements. The following ensures the page is ready for jQuery operations.

$(document).ready()

1	$(document).ready()

Is same as…

$()

1

$()

Example:

// $( document ).ready(function() {
$(function() {
  console.log( 'ready!' );
});

1

2

3

4

// $( document ).ready(function() {

$(function() {

console.log( 'ready!' );

});

Get some elements from a page

$( '#header' ); // select the element with an ID of 'header'
$( 'li' );      // select all list items on the page
$( 'ul li' );   // select list items that are in unordered lists
$( '.person' ); // select all elements with a class of 'person'

$( '#header' ); // select the element with an ID of 'header'

$( 'li' ); // select all list items on the page

$( 'ul li' ); // select list items that are in unordered lists

$( '.person' ); // select all elements with a class of 'person'

Filtering selections with jQuery:

var listItems = $( 'li' );

// filter the selection to only items with a class of 'special'
var special = listItems.filter( '.special' );

// filter the selection to only items without a class of 'special'
var notSpecial = listItems.not( '.special' );

// filter the selection to only items that contain a span
var hasSpans = listItems.has( 'span' );

// filter the selection to only items without a class of 'special'

var notSpecial = listItems.not( '.special' );

// filter the selection to only items that contain a span

var hasSpans = listItems.has( 'span' );

Events

$( '#my-unordered-list' ).on( 'click', 'li', function( event ) {
  console.log( this ); // logs the list item that was clicked

dummy sendmail

Lets say you are developing an app that sends mail, but you don’t want to actually send any mails out. The answer for your quest is “dummy sendmail”

#!/bin/bash
# replace the /usr/bin/sendail with this shell script.
# Everytime someone sends a mail, the content of the mail will be written to a file under /tmp/mail.20150203.log

TS=`date "+%Y%m%d"`
FN="/tmp/mail.$TS.log"

cat - >> $FN
