Javascript function not getting called in Drupal 7 which used to run proper in Drupal 6



I am in the process of migrating my Drupal 6 site to Drupal 7. As a result i am facing some issues with the code. The calling of javascript laced with jquery etc is different in Drupal 7 is what i have read. This is the image of the page i had in Drupal 6. On change of the dropdown box, the table above it gets populated with projects belonging to that status. This works fine in Drupal 6. But in Drupal 7 i see this javascript error.





This is the form element for the Dropdown in my php file.







<? php

$form['status_list'] = array(

'#type' => 'select',

'#title' => t('Freeway Project Statuses'),

'#options' => array(

0 => t('-Select Status-'),

1 => t('Draft'),

2 => t('NotSpecified'),

3 => t('Quote'),

4 => t('Forecasted'),

5 => t('InEvaluation'),

6 => t('Cancelled'),

7 => t('Booked'),

8 => t('InProduction'),

9 => t('Completed'),

10 => t('Closed'),

),

'#default_value' => array('0' => 'Select Status'),

'#weight' => 0,

);







And this is the JavaScript I have modified it with the additional tags for Drupal 7







(function$){ .. })(jQuery); .







These tags were not needed in Drupal 6.







(function$){

$(document).ready(function () {

$("#edit-status-list").change(function() {

var selectedStatus = $(this).find(":selected").text();

var charExists = ((window.location.href).indexOf('?') >= 0) ? true : false;



if(charExists){

var split = (window.location.href).split('?');

var loc = split[0];



loc = loc+"?status="+selectedStatus;

self.location.href= loc;



}



else{

var locf = window.location.href+"?status="+selectedStatus;

self.location.href= locf;



}



});



$("#create-freeway-project").submit(function() {

$(":submit", this).attr("disabled", "disabled");



});



$(".common_link_class").click(function() {

//alert("Hello");



var count = ($(this).data("clicks") || 0) + 1;

$(this).data("clicks", count);





if ($(this).data("clicks") >= 1) {



}





if ($(this).data("clicks") >= 2) {



return false;

}

});





$("#edit-analysis-code-one").change(function () {

// Get the configs and split them.

var cfgs = _get_configs("edit-custRef");

var split_cfgs = cfgs.split('/');



// Create some new configs and put it back into the configs textfield.

//var new_cfgs = $(this).val() +"/"+ cfgs[1];

var new_cfgs = $("#edit-analysis-code-one option:selected").text() +"/"+ cfgs[1];



$("#edit-custRef").val(new_cfgs);

});



$("#edit-analysis-code-two").change(function () {

// Get the configs and split them.

var cfgs = _get_configs("edit-custRef");

var split_cfgs = cfgs.split('/');



// Create some new configs and put it back into the configs textfield.

//var new_cfgs = cfgs[0] +"/"+ $(this).val();

var new_cfgs = cfgs[0] +"/"+ $("#edit-analysis-code-two option:selected").text()

$("#edit-custRef").val(new_cfgs);

});





});



})(jQuery);





(function$){

function _get_configs(id) {



return $("#"+ id).val();



}

})(jQuery);







#edit_status_list is the dropdown of our interest.





Would like to have your suggestions as to what additional change needs to be done for proper javascipt calling in Drupal 7

  1. It should be

    (function($) {


    Not

    (function$ {


    What you've got is a syntax error. The first one instantiates a function such that its first argument will be available via the symbol $ in its body code. The function is invoked after the body:

    // ...
    })(jQuery);


    and the global "jQuery" object is passed in as the argument. This setup assures your code access to the correct framework (that is, to jQuery) via the common "$" symbol without having to worry about another external binding for "$".

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
