How do you make jQuery ui tabs works with Sammy.js?

I know this topic has been raised before and you can find many workable solution. Some solution does not works with content via ajax and only can support one ui tabs. This solution is to overcome that limitation.

First you must bind select event to ui tabs.

$('#your_tabs_id').tabs({select: function(ev, ui) { location.href = "#/ui.tabs/" + $(this).attr("id") + "/" + ui.index;                  return true;                    }});

With this way, if you select any tab, it will redirect you to url #/ui.tabs/your_tabs_id/your_tabs_currentindex. Now, define routes in your sammy application to handle this url.

var app = $.sammy(function() {              this.get("#/ui.tabs/:id/:index", function(context){ $(document.getElementById(this.params["id"])).tabs("select",parseInt(this.params["index"],10)); }); });

I define routes with :id and :index to capture tabs id and tabs current index into params[“id”] and params[“index”] respectively. So, with this information, we know which tabs index to select. You can also implement this technique on accordion. The concept is similar.

Software for Women:Virtual Makeover and Hairstyler Application

I'm sure some women like this software so I decided to share it. It is called jKiwi. By using one photo, jKiwi was specifically designed for helping to instantly find out how you would look in hundreds of haircuts, try different lip colors or eye contact lenses and shadows without paying much attention to the software and instead concentrate on your new look.
I haven't tried it yet and never plan to install it. Don't ask me for review.

Java 1.5 or 1.6 with Coldfusion 7

Trying to upgrade coldfusion jvm directly to java 1.5 or 1.6 will cause "Unsupported major.minor version" and/or "CFCServlet must be initialized". These are the steps I used to get ColdFusion MX7 on windows with embedded JRun working with the Sun JDK 1.5. Haven't tried it on linux. Probably will doing it soon.

1. Download jrun updater 7 http://www.adobe.com/support/jrun/updaters.html
2. Stop coldfusion service.
3. Install jrun updater on runtime folder of your coldfusion MX7. 
4. Download and install JDK 1.5 or 1.6.
5. Open jvm.config file found in the runtime\bin folder.
   
6. Modify java.home to point to your JDK folder (for example, java.home=C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_11)
7. Open web.xml file found in the wwwroot\WEB-INF folder.
   
8. Now the tricky part, change MessageBrokerServlet load order to other than 1. In my case, I change it to 4.
• Example: from <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> to <load-on-startup>4</load-on-startup>
9. Restart your coldfusion server.
   

Now you can use your favorite java library with Coldfusion 7. Use it at your own risk.

*Step 8 will prevent "CFCServlet must be initialized" error from appearing. Why this step fixed that error?. I'm not really sure. If you know why, please share the info with me.
