i came up with this very ham-fisted fix that is at least going to
allow me to say that i got more finished today than staring emptily at
the screen:
function makeMenubar(w,wid,c) {
var menu = $("##"+w+"Header");
menu.append("<a class='close' id='"+w+"_close'/>");
menu.append("<div class='menubutton'
id='"+w+"_menubutton'></div>");
var jq = $;
$("##"+w+"_menubutton").click(function(e) {
$.extend(jq);
fileMenu(w,e.clientX,e.clientY,c);
});
$("##"+w+"_close").click(function() {closeWidget(wid,w);});
}
it seems like a really cheesy way to get the thing working, but it
does add all the missing functionality back into the jquery object.
i'd like to understand the "right" way to fix the problem, because the
way i've got it doesn't really make me comfortable.
