Question

Tinymce stops working if on the same page I use the selectmenu from https://github.com/fnagel/jquery-ui

Tinymce with default configuration

and selectmenu:

$('select.flags').selectmenu();

EDIT:

The problem is that on the page with tinymce i dont load the script for the selectmenu function. Should I remove it from the js that runs all the functions or is there any way to modify it to run only if the function exists and will be able to be ran

Answer 1

Here is an easy way to make ‘function does not exist’ problems go away.

 $.fn.selectmenu = $.fn.selectmenu || $.noop
 $('select.jquery_smenu').selectmenu(); //do what you will

or you could do it like this:

if( $.fn.selectmenu ){
   $('select.jquery_smenu').selectmenu(); //do what you will
}

for the record, function does not exist or var is not a function is a javascript problem more than a jQuery one. Hope this helps!
