While using my little tag plugin, AP Tags, I ran into a small snag where I have a dialog box that I am crafting dynamically using jQuery UI. In this dialog I have my tag plugin, and I am calling it every time a different “Edit” link is created. I’m doing this so I can populate the tag editor with the tags of whatever item I’m editing.

It would seem that every time I call AP Tags, however, new spans and hidden field DOM elements are being created, causing duplicate DOM elements to be created. I have corrected this in version 0.2.0, and it is now available on the jQuery website for download.

Cheers, and happy coding!
