  5. Great fixes. Nice work! Big “Thank you” to all the developers in the jQuery UI team!

    I can’t wait for the form controls (selectmenu, button, radiobutton etc..). That is going to improve the experience on our website greatly.

    I think there is a bug with buttons after clicked now. They remain in the hover state. Also in dialogs, the hover state is “stuck”. I could be mistaken, but just in case. It happens even on jQueryUI.com’s ThemeRoller.

  11. This is the first time I looked at the JQuery. Maybe I don’t know how it should work.

    But, the UI demo page does not look very good to me.
    I use Chrome v6. After I clicked “view source” at the position demo page, it only shows me a couple of lines instead of entire source. It did not create a scroll bar for my Chrome.

    However, if I select some of the source code and drag down, then I can select all of the source. If I want to move to the top of the page, then I have to select some source code and drag my mouse up to the top.

    On IE 7, it present all source code for me to view, but it does not show readable line break. It shows me a very long horizontal line. The good thing is IE 7 generates a horizontal scroll bar for me that I can drag to the right of the screen.
