Handle Cloning with jQuery Uniform

If you try to apply uniform styles for cloned elements, you may come across some weird situations where you don't get the expected output. Just try this if it applies to you also.

The bold text is the most important and it should be applied in the same order.

$.uniform.restore('.is_variant_enabled');
$('.is_variant_enabled').uniform();

 

[sourcecode language="javascript"]
$.uniform.restore('.is_variant_enabled');
var row = $("#tbl_variants").find('tr:eq(1)').clone();
$("#tbl_variants tbody").prepend(row);
$('.is_variant_enabled').uniform();

Change Database Collation with PHP

This little sql statement can change the collation in your database including tables, columns and everywhere. This is something phpMyAdmin can not handle completely.

Credits goes to original poster.

[sourcecode language="php"]

$conn1=new MySQLi("localhost","root","","exam_db");
if($conn1->connect_errno){
    echo mysqli_connect_error();
    exit;
}
$res=$conn1->query("show tables") or die($conn1->error);
while($tables=$res->fetch_array()){
    $conn1->query("ALTER TABLE $tables[0] CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci") or die($conn1->error);
}
echo "The collation of your database has been successfully changed!";

$res->free();
$conn1->close();

Prepend Items to Bootstrap Typeahead

This is a little code snippet for manually adding static items along with typeahead suggestions list. This can be used to prepend or append items. I'm using biggora/bootstrap-ajax-typeahead

You only need to look for render event of the plugin and inject your code.

[sourcecode language="javascript"]
$("#customer").typeahead({
        onSelect: function(item) {
            ...
        },
        updater: function(item) {
            return item;
        },
        highlighter: function(name) {
           ...
        },
        ajax: {
            ...
            },
           
        render: function(items) {
            var uber = {render: $.fn.typeahead.Constructor.prototype.render};
            uber.render.call(this, items);
            this.$menu.prepend('<li class="nostyle"><a href="#" autocomplete="off" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#itemModal"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i> New Customer</a></li>');
            return this;
        }
    });
