    $(&#39;[id ^=aName][id $=EditMode]&#39;)

Alternatively, you can use the &quot;add()&quot; function for readability, but I would recommend Chaos&#39;s method:

    $(&quot;[id ^=aName]&quot;).add(&quot;[id $=EditMode]&quot;)



`rgb(255,255,255)` notation has been available since CSS1. But `#ffffff` seems to be vastly more popular.

Obviously it&#39;s slightly more compact. I know that hex is more closely related to the underlying bytes, and understand that there would be advantages in carrying out arithmetic on those values, but this isn&#39;t something you&#39;re going to do with CSS.

Colour values tend to be originated by designers (such as myself) who would never encounter hex notation anywhere else, and are much more familiar with the decimal notation which is the main way of specifying colour in the apps they use -- in fact I have met quite a few who don&#39;t realise how a given hex value breaks down into RGB components and assumed it didn&#39;t directly relate to the colour at all, like a Pantone colour system reference (eg PMS432).

So, any reason not to use decimal?

Are there any good reasons for using hex over decimal for RGB colour values in CSS?

These lines in C#

    decimal a = 2m;
    decimal b = 2.0m;
    decimal c = 2.00000000m;
    decimal d = 2.000000000000000000000000000m;
    
    Console.WriteLine(a);
    Console.WriteLine(b);
    Console.WriteLine(c);
    Console.WriteLine(d);

Generates this output:

    2
    2.0
    2.00000000
    2.000000000000000000000000000

So I can see that creating a decimal variable from a literal allows me to control the precision.

* Can I adjust the precision of decimal variables without using literals?
* How can I create b from a?  How can I create b from c?

I have a group of buttons on my web page which all have an id that end with the text &quot;EditMode&quot;.

I&#39;m using jQuery to assign an event to like so

    $(&#39;[id $=EditMode]&#39;).click(editHandler);

However now I want to prefix the id with a name (which I will know in advance) so the id would be &quot;aName+someotherstuff+EditMode&quot;. How do I alter the above expression so I match on aName AS WELL as editMode? 



jQuery selector for matching at start AND end of ID?

I have a group of buttons on my web page which all have an id that end with the text "EditMode".
I'm using jQuery to assign an event to like so
<pre><code class="hljs language-ini">$('[id $=EditMode]').click(editHandler);
</code></pre>
However now I want to prefix the id with a name (which I will know in advance) so the id would be "aName+someotherstuff+EditMode". How do I alter the above expression so I match on aName AS WELL as editMode?

What&#39;s the best way to store a `key=&gt;value` array in javascript, and how can that be looped through?

The key of each element should be a tag, such as `{id}` or just `id` and the value should be the numerical value of the id.

It should either be the element of an existing javascript class, or be a global variable which could easily be referenced through the class.

jQuery can be used.

Best way to store a key=&gt;value array in JavaScript?

I have code that looks like this:

    &lt;div id=&quot;header&quot;&gt;
        &lt;ul class=&quot;tabs&quot;&gt;
            &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/user/view&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;tab&quot;&gt;Profile&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
            &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/user/edit&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;tab&quot;&gt;Edit&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
        &lt;/ul&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;

I&#39;d like to use jQuery to add the following to the list:

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/user/messages&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;tab&quot;&gt;Message Center&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

I tried this:

    $(&quot;#content ul li:last&quot;).append(&quot;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/user/messages&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;tab&quot;&gt;Message Center&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&quot;);

But that adds the new `li` *inside* the last `li` (just before the closing tag), not after it.  What&#39;s the best way to add this `li`?




How to add a list item to an existing unordered list

I&#39;m trying to set the Accept HTTP header to &quot;text/xml&quot; with this jquery code:

    $.ajax({
        beforeSend: function(req) {
            req.setRequestHeader(&quot;Accept&quot;, &quot;text/xml&quot;);
        },
        type: &quot;GET&quot;,
        url: &quot;[proper url]&quot;,
        contentType: &quot;text/plain; charset=utf-8&quot;,
        dataType: ($.browser.msie) ? &quot;text&quot; : &quot;xml&quot;,
        username: &#39;---&#39;,
        password: &#39;-------&#39;,            				    
        success: function(data) {
            var xml;
            if (typeof data == &quot;string&quot;) {
                alert(&quot;Data is string:&quot; + data);
                xml = new ActiveXObject(&quot;Microsoft.XMLDOM&quot;);
                xml.async = false;
                xml.loadXML(data);
            } else {
                xml = data;
                alert(&quot;Data is not string:&quot; + $(xml).text());
            }
            // Returned data available in object &quot;xml&quot;
            //alert(&quot;Status is: &quot; + xml.statusText);
            $(&quot;#ingest_history&quot;).html($(xml).text());
        }			   
    });

In firefox it works great.

But in IE, the value that I am trying to set for the Accept header seems to get appended onto the end so it becomes: `Accept: */*, text/xml`.  This causes my ajax call to return the html version as opposed to the xml version which I want.

Does anybody know how to properly set/clear the Accept header in IE 8?

Updated: For some reason the asterisks weren&#39;t appearing as I entered them.  The Accept Header in IE appears to be: `Accept: */*, text/xml`.
