New Release 0.9.4 and jQuery Port

Maik — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 06:41:09 -0000

Despite the release of 0.9.4, which featured some bugfixes with selects and Opera 10, i'm pleased to announce that jQuery porting has finally begun. Thanks to dfilatov81 and his jQuery inheritance plugin, porting won't take as long as i had expected. After figuring out the jQuery API i managed to get the checkboxes module working already - took about 4 hours from the download of jQuery 1.4.2 to clicking a cfe-jquery checkbox. Stay tuned!

New Release 0.9.3

Despite the usual bugfixes, this release features a single compressed library file for all those of you who want to quickstart using cfe (i used yuicompressor for minifying). The integration therefore gets even easier (see http://customformelements.net/howto.php\). Enjoy!

Developer docs for cfe

For all you who want to have a deeper look inside cfe or extend cfe, i just launched the online docs which might be helpful to you. See them at http://customformelements.net/docs. Enjoy

Support for Attribute disabled added

Maik — Fri, 15 May 2009 17:15:59 -0000

HTML Elements with disabled set to true are now correctly handled by cfe. I modified the graphics and css to show the disabled state. It's even possible to disable/enable elements on-the-fly with javascript, if you use the provided methods $('myElem').disable() and $('myElem').enable(). Note: those methods only work with form elements defined by w3c (see http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.12.1\)

CFE 0.9 released

Just released 0.9 of cfe. Be sure to read the ChangeLog and the installation notes.

This version will be the last before going 1.0, so please post any bugs you find.

After releasing 1.0 i'll port cfe to jQuery.

Big update ahead

Maik — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 22:49:10 -0000

I'm currently working on the last bugfixes for the new cfe version 0.9. It will offer advanced event handling and a more solid and flexible architecture. It will be possible to create any cfe dynamically via javascript without the need for a hard-coded html form element.

After v0.9 evaluation phase and bugfixes i'll move cfe to 1.0 stable and start porting it to jQuery.

Stay tuned.

Small update - more to come

Hi there,
since im currently busy with studies i have not much time for cfe - i apologize for this.
I still wanted to fix an annoying bug - the select field now gets auto-selected with the option you specify in the original select-html-element.

I'm planning some major improvements to the structure, but it may take some time...

Stay tuned and post bugreports :)

Thanks

Offer: Addon / Feature development

Maik — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 12:46:23 -0000

I'm about to write my diploma thus having not much time for the development of cfe. After graduating I want to spend some weeks in Japan with my friends.

We're big fans of the japanese culture and already took some lessons in Japanese to be prepared for our trip. While in Japan, we want to blog about our experiences and show you the beauty of this country while road-trippin' from Tokio to Nagasaki.

But as you can guess, it's pretty hard for students with limited amounts of money to pay the tickets and to travel around in Japan. So my idea was to utilize cfe to earn some additional bucks by developing addons or feature requests for you.

If you want to support the development of one feature or addon, you may donate via SourceForge donation system. Please add the name of the addon / feature as a comment.

When receiving donations for a specific feature, I'll start developing it. You may check the current status of each request on this page.

There will be a list of donors nearby the feature to see, who supports active development - if you want to get linked back from cfe, just add a link to your site in the donation comment.

After hitting the target amount, I'll do my best to release a stable version of the feature as soon as possible, which all users of cfe can enjoy.

Thanks for featuring CFE today! It had a great impact on user stats and downloads and i'm happy to get some feedback for my work.
