Never Clever

“Your [gas] is horrible.”

“No, no it’s not. It’s like someone made you a peanut butter sandwich and you didn’t even know you brought lunch.”

For Zero Punctuation to get old. It seems like everything that really entertains me on the Internet has a short life. Hilarious for a week, funny for a month, meh after that. But I’m starting to doubt this will ever happen with Yahtzee. See for yourself:

Using jQuery to coax .NET into cloning table rows with properly numbered id/ name attributes:


var MyNamespace = {
init: function()
{
// attach row clone to passenger table
$("table#tblPassengers tr:last :input").change(function() {MyNamespace.cloneRow("tblPassengers")});

// attach row clone to contacts table
$(”table#tblContacts tr:last :input”).change(function() {MyNamespace.cloneRow(”tblContacts”)});
},

cloneRow: function(sTableId)
{
var oRow = $(”table#{0} tr:last :input”.format(sTableId));
oRow.unbind(”change”);

var oNewRow = $(”table#{0} tr:last”.format(sTableId)).clone();

$(”:input”, oNewRow).each(
function ()
{
MyNamespace.cloneInput($(this));
}
);

$(”table#{0}”.format(sTableId)).append(oNewRow);
$(”table#{0} tr:last :input”.format(sTableId)).change(function() {Flights.cloneRow(sTableId)});
},

cloneInput: function(oInput)
{
oInput.val(”");
var oRegex = new RegExp(/[^”]ctl(\d+)/g);

var sId = oInput.attr(”id”);
oRegex.exec(sId);
var iIdCount = parseInt(RegExp.$1[1]);
var sFind = “ctl” + MyNamespace.padIntegerString(iIdCount, 2);
var sReplace = “ctl” + MyNamespace.padIntegerString(++iIdCount, 2);
oInput.attr(”id”, sId.replace(sFind, sReplace));
oInput.attr(”name”, oInput.attr(”name”).replace(sFind, sReplace));
},

padIntegerString: function(iInt, iNumberOfCharacters)
{
var sTest = iInt + “”;
if (sTest.length >= iNumberOfCharacters)
{
return sTest;
}
var sPad = “”;
for (var i = 0; i < iNumberOfCharacters - 1; i++)
{
sPad += “0″;
}
return sPad + iInt;
},
};

2.0.1, actually. Now I just need an excuse to use it somewhere.

We get along so well:
