Topic “MothersClick”

NOTE: This project has been superceded by the most excellent jQuery Calendar. All development on this plugin will now be merged with that project.

I am pleased to announce that my jQuery date picker is now ready for consumption, check it out here:

This plugin was originally written to improve the interface for adding activities on MothersClick.com and will be working as the new input widget for date module. Initial mom reactions have been extremely positive (from a couple beta testers) and we hope to roll this into production after we iron out the kinks with Karen to get this into date module as the new default widget.

In a previous article, I wrote about how to use jQuery to remove submit form buttons and replacing it with some “Saving…” text to prevent duplicate form submissions.

While this works well, it only works about 90-95% of the time—rest of the time the user either reloads the page and resubmits or has JavaScript off.

Then what do you do?
