jQuery tooltip: Trouble with remove()
- by Rosarch
I'm using a jQuery tooltip plugin.
I have HTML like this:
<li class="term ui-droppable">
<strong>Fall 2011</strong>
<li class="course ui-draggable">Biological Statistics I<a class="remove-course-button" href="">[X]</a></li>
<div class="term-meta-data">
<p class="total-credits too-few-credits">Total credits: 3</p>
<p class="median-GPA low-GPA">Median Historical GPA: 2.00</p>
</div>
</li>
I want to remove the .course element. So, I attach a click handler to the <a>:
function _addDeleteButton(course, term) {
var delete_button = $('<a href="" class="remove-course-button" title="Remove this course">[X]</a>');
course.append(delete_button);
$(delete_button).click(function() {
course.remove();
return false;
}).tooltip();
}
This all works fine, in terms of attaching the click handler. However, when course.remove() is called, Firebug reports an error in tooltip.js:
Line 282
tsettings is null
if ((!IE || !$.fn.bgiframe) && tsettings.fade) {
What am I doing wrong? If the link has a tooltip attached, do I need to remove it specially?
UPDATE: Removing .tooltip() solve the problem. I'd like to keep it in, but that makes me suspect that my use of .tooltip() is incorrect here.
