I need clarification on this particular idea. I believe the elements are not yet loaded into memory/accessible during the first firing of a script in the head tag, so this would cause me an error (or at least it has):
document.getElementById('cText').onkeyup = function addBlurb(e)
So in order to solve this I had to put it inside the onload method of the window. However it seems as if I am missing something here. Any words? Do I have to attach events inside the onload? Are there things I should know relative to this in regards to jQuery (for future reference).
How can I attach events with parameters? PHP Code:
for (i=0; i<document.getElementsByTagName('input').length; i++) document.getElementsByTagName('input')[i].attachEvent("onclick", element_onclick); // adds event to all input elements (saves time)
I've been reading forum posts (not just on this site) and unsuccessfully trying to apply the examples to what I'm doing for hours now. Can anyone help me do this correctly?
I need the browser window's resize event to trigger resizes on different objects on my page. The objects are added dynamically, so I can't just have one function to set it all up at the beginning, although so far that's the only way I know how to do it. I understand that using this method (below), that there can be only one such statement, but I need to add new functions to the resize event as I add new items to my page.
What is a cross-browser method for attaching multiple functions (like the two above) to the browser window resize event, where they aren't both done at the same time (like above)?
I have a dynamic form with fields named using brackets ([]). Validation is working for fields that existed on the initial page load, but when I add append the code for a new field, the validation events are, of course, not attached to the new DOM elements. What's the best way to accomplish this?
I am trying to "ajaxify" my site. Now I have one problem:
$("#posts").children().remove(); $("#tag-sidebar").children().remove(); $.each(data.Tags_Sidebar, function (indexInArray, valueOfElement) { var insert = $("<li>");
[Code]......
Now when I click one of those links (href1, href2, href3) generated, the click event won't execute! What's the problem? Also, is it right that I have to transfer the valueOfElement over, like I did? What does stopEventPropagation do? Prevent the href from being navigated to? That's what I am trying to do.
I have been trying to do the following. Using JS I want to create an input element (text box) and attach a event listener. I have done in in two different ways. The first is using xml elements directly (as in e4x) and the second using the dom method createElement (which is much clunkier to write). I'd prefer the former. I've included a stripped down example below.
It appears that when creating an input element using the line:
var inputBox = <input type="text" size="30" />
that it does not have the same properties as when it is created with:
var inputBox2 = document.createElement("input");
because when an event listener is attached using addEventListener, an error is generated on the first, but not the second.
My thoughts on this are either 1. The namespace for the input element is not correct and whether input can have a listener attached. However, my guess is that it would not show up in the first div box. Code:
1. Is there any possibility to find out if mouseover, mouseout or any other mouse event is taking place for the given element right now? 2. Is there any possibility to find out for which element such event is taking place right now?
Im working on a ajax app and not sure what is the best way to bind events to elements (performance wise).I have a number of elements with 'click', 'focus', 'keydown' events which can be assigned though the delegate to the parent, like so:$('#parent').delegate('#child', 'click', func.....)but is it better to add a delegate to the 'document' for multiple events and use IF statement to filter for elements which should fire an event, like so:[code]Each element can be replaced with an updated version retrieved from the server.
I define a "click" event on "a" tags in the ready part of a page. It fires just fine when I click on any "a" tag on the page. I then have a button which sets the content of a div using ajax. This content contains a couple of "a" tags. The issue now is that the "click" event does NOT fire when clicking on these tags. I suspect it is because they did not exist when the page was initially rendered. What is the "JQuery way" of dealing with an issue like this? Of course I cannot be the only one in the world who needs to return HTML with events from my ajax calls :-)
It looks like when I do $("object").bind("<mouse-event>") the event isn't actually being bound to the element in Chrome and Firefox (not sure about IE). Using $("object").each(function()
while creating this i am attaching the change event using live() function. On changing the above option i am recreating the above dropdown again. This dropdown in under a div .For eg:it has an id=1. During the time of recreating the above dropdown,i am dettaching the event handlers using die() and after that i remove the div with id=1.Again i will create a div with id=1 and a dropdown.
The problem now is that when i try to change the option two change events are triggered.I think the die() method haven't worked. Is it because i have created the dropdown under the div with same id?
I'm trying to use a javascript class to assign specific event handlers to different elements. I create an object and pass it a reference to the element, and some properties for the event handler to use. When the event fires, I want the handler to reference the properties of the object. But I'm clearly doing something wrong as multiple instances all refer to the most recent object only.
I have an div element (lets call it div number 1) that I have attached a click event to using jquery.bind() method. That works fine. I then have another div element (div number 2) that is absolute positioned on top of div 1. Now div number 2 also has a click event binded to it, which works... the problem is when I click div 2 and the click event triggers, so does the click event from div 1... I don't want the click event from div 1 to fire.
DIV 2 is inside DIV 1. DIV 1 has mouse events (i.e. onmouseover, onmousemove). The problem is, when DIV 2 is over DIV 1, the mouse events don't fire. In my specific case, DIV 2 follows the mouse so it's always right below the mouse and always above DIV 1. How can I make the DIV 1 events fire?
On my site, I have some click-able spans (will be referred to as toggle spans) that show or hide other spans (that contain the content I want on my site; will be referred to as content spans). The layout of these spans is like this:
Using $.get() and insertBefore() work great for what I'm doing. But, the data I insert does not respond to events that I have set up. I'm notsurprised by this. I'm sure there is something extra I need to do. But, what is that?
Internet Explorer can't bind events to absolute positioned elements ? can't bind a "click" to an element that is overlapping another.Have tried loads of different ways, here are 5 of them:
version 1: $(".classHolder").click(function(){ alert( $(this).html() ); }); version 2:
In the examples for live() and delegate(), the selectors match at least one element that already exists. Will either of these commands work on elements for which there is no match at all on page load?
In my case, I want to bind a keyup event to the textareas that jeditable creates. I could probably create custom plug-in (to the plug-in :) to do the job, but I'd like to use live or delegate if they would work.
I have just started my adventure with jQuery. I wrote a post on a forum and a men wrote me:"Don't mix javascript with the html of the view as in your <body onLoad="load()">, but put it in a different javascript file thatyou include. In the JQuery tutorial there are example of how to attach events to DOM elements without "touching" the html. "I know how to put my javaScript code to the a ****.js file but I don't can not find any information how to do:attach events to DOM elements without "touching" the html. I was looking for a tutorial here but I couldn't find
