Richard:
OK, I downloaded again from jqueryui.com/download as you suggested.
A copy of color-picker is now sitting at:
C:/Computers/JavaScript/JQuery/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom/development-
bundle/demos/slider/colorpicker.html
and works fine.
I want to play with it, so I copied it to my main JQuery folder,
using the regular FireFox 'save page as' option.
That version now sits at:
C:/Computers/JavaScript/JQuery/colorpicker.html
with imports as follows:
<link type="text/css" href="colorpicker_files/ui.css"
rel="stylesheet">
<script type="text/javascript" src="colorpicker_files/jquery-1.js"></
script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="colorpicker_files/ui_002.js"></
script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="colorpicker_files/ui.js"></
script>
<link type="text/css" href="colorpicker_files/demos.css"
rel="stylesheet">
and files with those names are indeed present in the folder:
C:\Computers\JavaScript\JQuery\colorpicker_files
Just as before, the copied version Does Not Work properly, to wit:
The slider handle is missing.
Instead of a color bar to the left of each slider, there is a one
pixel wide color bar at the far left.
The upper border of each bar is thick dark gray for a distance fixed
by the initial value of the slider.
The lower border of each bar is thick dark gray and its right end
moves like a slider handle should when I click or drag on the slider.
The swatch changes color appropriately as I drag the lower border, so
the guts of the slider is working.
It seems to me that there is some implicit file that is not getting
copied when I save the demo.
The file ui.css only says
@import "ui.base.css";
@import "ui.theme.css";
so, as before, I added those files to the colorpicker_files folder,
but that still doesn't help.
Do you have any idea what the missing files might be?
