  There's obviously no such thing as a soul. There's no mystical "true self" ghost in our bodies. (That's nihilistic, to place value beyond our actual selves and bodies, beyond reality.) And we don't transcend reality by changing, we simply change. We are bugs on a rock in space, h... read more »

  I couldn't figure it out but your older csv parser version worked on BD7 after again moving some comments out of the middle of a function. BD chokes on that. Thanks!... read more »

  If it helps, it outputs an array for every row correctly, and the first 16 have the correct number of columns, then it drops to one column short and later correct again, but no discernible reason why as columns on the csv are missing values throughout, for example. And throughout they are a... read more »

  I'm back, sorry. I have this working locally on Railo but it doesn't work onsite with BD JX7 (7, not 7.01 or 7.1). The array is outputs is very odd, almost entirely blank then 1 value in an array after 46 rows, and some other odd ones lower down. (Btw, had to move the comments just af... read more »

  Ok, I see now it is supposed to be a comma in between not a semi-colon. Uhh, jquery and untold brackets and semi-colons and commas... Thanks! Btw, my 2 comments above now say "Matt" made them. Something messed up there.... read more »

• jQuery Events: MouseOver / MouseOut vs. MouseEnter / MouseLeave

  Posted on Apr 20, 2010 at 3:21 AM

  No, it is snapping back without any further mouse movement, while still hovering - it should animate (not snap) back only when the mouse no longer hovers over the div. Hover doesn't seem to work right, or not intuitively right anyway. Are you sure hover is using MouseEnter/MouseLeave? I thi... read more »

  Any idea why this animates properly then - with no extra mouse movement - jumps back to the starting position a moment later? Does the same on mouseout to0. $('#banner').hover(function(){ $(this).animate({backgroundPosition:"-250px 0"}); $(this).animate({backgroundPosition:"0 0"... read more »

  Thanks. Before I try that, this is my local computer, Railo on Tomcat - can anyone explain how to check and increase the memory for it? Maybe it's too small but I'm not familiar with managing either or tweaking any Java settings.... read more »

  I get a java heap error on a 4000 line x 8 col csv file. (Processing only, not doing anything with the result yet.) If I cut the file in half it works. Why does it use so much memory? Can anything be done to the function to improve that?... read more »
