I am using jQuery-Lint (or more specifically FireQuery) to check my code which uses a drag operation. I’ve simplified it in the code below, but I still get the same messages from jQuery-Lint every time my mouse moves:

  • You’ve called css([object Arguments]) more than once on the
    same jQuery object
    • Why not combine these calls by passing
      an object? E.g. css({ “left”: 63, “left”: 64 })

I know why I’m getting these messages, it’s because I am changing the left property every time the mouse is moved, but this is the behavior I want because it is a drag operation.

Is there a better way for me to use jQuery to drag that won’t cause these messages from jQuery lint, or do I just need to ignore them?

<html>
    <head>
        <style>
            div {
                width     : 50;
                height    : 50;
                background: #f00;
                position  : absolute;
            }
        </style>
        <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
        <script>
            $(function () {
                var $div = $("div");
                $div.css("cursor", "none");
                $(document).mousemove(function (event) {
                    $div.css("left", event.pageX - 25);
                });
            });

    Those warnings don’t make sense (for this use case), so you should ignore them.

    You do need to be able to set the left property on the $div on mousemove, to show the drag effect you want.
