jQuery Mobile Team Meeting – May 03 2011

##New volunteer: Alex Kessinger, developer at Mixed Media Labs and their jQM/native hybrid PicPlz app, and speaker at last jQuery Conf. Can’t be on the call but will check in after.

###Navigation re-write status update and planning

  • URL handling:

    • in-progress, test written, code changes this week by Kin

  • Extensibility hooks: need to document on wiki page

    • Steven Black will start a wiki page with suggesitons

  • Caching: a simple "don't cache" flag per page

    • A new data-cache attribute on the page div to tell framework to re-load it if shown again, default is “true” (re-use the page) but you can set data-cache="false" to tell the framework to re-load ever time it’s viewed
    • $( "[data-role='page'][data-cache='false']" ).live( "pagehide", function(){ $(this).remove(); });
    • Issue: https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/issues/1554

  • Memory management: how to keep the DOM from getting too big?

    • A new global configuration option to set the max number of pages to keep in the DOM at once. Once that max is hit, we run a a document-wide $("selector").remove() at the appropriate juncture in every changePage invocation (post Ajax success) that finds all pages that are data-cache="false" or oldest in the stack and delete them. We’ll need to check for alreadyLocalPage = ("[data-url='...']:not([data-cache='false']")
    • Default to a sensible number like 15-20 pages but this can be overridden to any number more than 2 (to allow for transitions) or turned off completely
    • Issue: https://github.com/jquery/jquery-mobile/issues/1555

  • Focus: can we handle this better?

    • we need to have focus brought to the top of the current page on transition for accessibility and keyboard/focus-based navigation
    • Scott Jehl will create a wiki page with suggestions

  • Transitions: how to smooth out, eliminate blinking

    • Kin will tackle this after URLs

###Radiobuttons can't be selected once they are selected, then de-selected

###Opera Mini Page ScrollTo issues - blank & cut off pages

###Blackberry 5 support - A or C grade TBD based on performance.

###Checkbox array support

##PULL REQUESTS

###listview.filter / data-filter performance optimization

###Decoupling Navbar State from Button "active" State

###Images with full URL broken in FF

###Theme inheritance in dialogs

###Update functional tests: bind click event to objects

###Dynamically insert thumbnail item at 0-index position doesn't update all style after listview refresh

###Several patches - Faster data filter / control what is filtered + Load dialog content from other base URL

###Patch for issue #1024 (Duplicate pages created in DOM)

jQuery Core Team Meeting – Apr 11 2011

Minutes (Notes) of the meeting of jQuery
Location: #jquery-meeting on Freenode
Time: Noon ET

Official Agenda:

42 (timmywil): .closest() fails on disconnected nodes

  1. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/291

46 (john): jQuery throwing error on replaceWith

52 (gf3, cowboy): Add Function.prototype.bind() support to jQuery.proxy

  1. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/133

51 (danheberden): Support relative values for .css()

  1. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/78 original
  2. We wanted to see this patch DRY’ed out a bit, but we discussed in meeting and determined that it would probably introduce overhead to share this code between modules, and it’s not that much repeated code.  consensus was in favour of landing as-is. Dan is going to clean up the code a bit more.
  3. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/297

valHooks (the more modest version)?

  1. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/295

    • John: Looks good to me!

  2. http://jsperf.com/jq152-vs-jq16pre-trigger/3

Bumped to 1.6.x / 1.7

20 (dmethvin): Attach data cache directly to element — In process, need to create separate list for global events.

  1. Eventually  (1.7?) we will only support firing ajax* events on document and remove global events entirely.
  2. http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/8792

45 (jboesch, reviewed by john): Make .width() work correctly for inputs

  1. http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/4146

  2. https://github.com/jquery/jquery/pull/253

    • John reviewed: Needs formatting fixes and possibly a code fix

  3. also fixes http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/3333 ?
