This should be a simple question for someone. Could somebody please explain the meaning of the following two lines of code:

$("select, input[type=file]").not('select[multiple]').uniform();		
$('input:checkbox, input:radio').checkbox();

Open in new window

I seem to have a problem related to these lines of code, but I thought I should first understand what they are doing before I start debugging anything.

Thank you.

$('input:checkbox, input:radio') select all checkbox and radio button of the document
$("select, input[type=file]") select all dropdown boxes and file input of the document

Thanks for the post. What about the reference to 'not' in the following:

$("select, input[type=file]").not('select[multiple]').uniform();

Open in new window

$("select, input[type=file]").not('select[multiple]')

$("select, input[type=file]") select all dropdown boxes and file input of the document but NOT listbox (dropdown with a << multiple >> attribute)

<select multiple="multiple"
<select multiple=""
<select multiple="blabla"
