DOM Onmousedown - When A User Pushes Their Mouse Down On A DOM Element, Allow Them To Move It?
Sep 10, 2010
When a user pushes their mouse down on a DOM element I want to allow them to move it, so I would like to setup an on mouse move function. The code i have is:
I am wanting the user to move their mouse over a word and a description should appear. Like this: [URL], move your mouse over copyright symbol, which is down in the right hand corner of the photo. Could someone please tell how to do this? I know this would need JavaScript, but not sure what to search for in a search engine.
With the following code I can change the mouse pointer. However, if you click in Mozilla (with IE it works perfect) on 'Show hourglass' the mouse pointer changes only if you move the mouse at least on pixel.
<html> <body> <script type = 'text/javascript'> function show_hourglass() { document.getElementById("my_href1").style.cursor = "wait"; document.getElementById("my_href2").style.cursor = "wait"; }
I am looking to have a javascript that can be included a page that can highlight or set a border for a the div, p, span, or img DOM element when clicked on. Now this element may or not have a element name or id. And also, the code on the individual objects do not have a onmousedown behavior.Lets say for example there is this code.
And in the browser, I wanted mousedown on a section of a page and highlight the parent object. Suppose I moused-down on 'My First Sentence Text', its parent would be that p tag. Is there a way I could reference that p tag so that I could highlight it with a border. Granted, this would be a no brainer if that p tag already have an id and name, but in this it does not.
i have a menu generated by a list with nested lists. i want the parent link to stay highlighted when the mouse hovers over the sub menus. because those sub menus are also generated by jquery (qtip), CSS alone won't do it (triedul.topnav li:hover a {background-color: #F00;}).is there a way to do this using jquery?
I want to add a global event handler for mousedown that will register whenever the user clicks anywhere on the page but I'm having trouble.This is what I'm trying to do:
var body = document.getElementsByTagName("body"); alert(body); body.addEventListener(mouseDown, myHandler);[code]....
But the event handler is never called. I can't even seem to get access to the body. Is the body tag the wrong place to be assigning the mousedown handler? I'm trying to make this code work correctly in both IE and firefox.
I have a jquery statement that enables or disables a button depending on whether a checkbox has been selected in a grid. This works fine in firefox but in IE the button is still displayed as disabled after checking the box. When you move the mouse pointer over the button is instantly becomes enabled. Showing an alert dialogue also makes the button display as enabled. Is there anyway to force IE to refresh the button display after running the statement?
On this page:[URL]..when you hover over "Informationen" and "Über uns" you get sub menu shown. When you move mouse away it hides. Normally i have problem with jquery making queue for every single hover i make, and then i just keeps on animating all those hovers. I tried to implement stop() but just cant get it to work properly.
In website i am having popup window.Whenever refreshiung the page popup window will come Its working now and i want to move that popup window based on the mouse movement can anyone give some sample code for this
Actually my requirement is when i move my mouse on the link, One alert box shoulb be appear and it will count how many times i move on that link. I already written the code in javascript but it didn't reach to my requirement.code...
I'd like to make it possible to move the background of a site by clicking and dragging it with the mouse. So far I've only found flash solutions and I'd really rather not use flashIf anyone knows of any jquery code that is somewhat similar
The problem i have is when i try to move my mouse down too the menu that slides on mouseover. The moment i remove my mouse from the menu it moves away again(just like i made it).
So my question is: can i make a div that pauses all script? That way i could do that with menycontent and force the menycontent to show.
I'm trying to make a simple page where I can move a div around by hovering the mouse over the different links. My problem is it wont stop once activated.
I'm using the Microsoft Virtual Earth Version 1 Commercial Control. I want to make it so you can click on a pinpoint that's plotted on the map and all mouse events are passed to the map so that the user can click anywhere on the map (including the pin points) and drag/zoom the map around.
For those of you who haven't used Virtual Earth: Basically, there are a bunch on absolutely positioned Div elements. I basically want to pass all mouse events from one absolutely positioned div element to the absolutely positioned div element directly beneath it.
Is there a way to use JavaScript to push a page element (a DIV block, for example) down the screen, so it sits at the bottom of the browser window. Code:
Note how the footer is very high up. Is there a way to push the DIV that the footer is in to the bottom of the browser window?
In pseudocode:
if (where element Y coordinate is above <browser window bottom Y coordinate>) { move footer to browser window bottom Y coordinate } else { leave footer where it is , as that means that the content of the page already pushed it down }
I would like to move the upper most row which I'm referencing by the eq: $('.row').eq(0) to the end of div#container I thought I could use append or appendTo, but these don't seem to be working.
I have a simple hide and fadeIn. When you rollover a word it will reveal the definition. The problem I am having is if you move the mouse around quickly from one word to the next word sometimes it gets hung up and a definition will not hide. The result gives this hanging defintion and whatever the other definition the mouse is rolledover.
Here is the code I'm using:
There are about 70 words in a box with the definition being reveals on the right hand side. Is there a way of making sure there is always only one definition being shown?
I implemented superfish on my site [url]. I used the menu suffix -nav, and I expected it to just do a drop down. It does, but it pushes the whole page down when I hover over it. Any ideas on how to make this stop and just have superfish as a regular dropdown?
My question explains everything, I have a div inside a parent div. I need to move it inside another div and on the UI show the animation of it moving.
The only way I can think of is, select the element, copy the html(), copy the offset() position and remove element from original container. then add a copy of previously removed element to page/document set the position to the copied offset and animate()
After animation is complete, remove it from the page and add it to the secondary container.
Is there any better and easier way of doing this ? any plugin may be ?
Is there any way in jQuery to move the order of events on a dom element. I have an element (the add button on a jQGrid display) that I want to place a click event in front of the one one put in by jQGrid. I had a look at the jquery.eventmanager plugin but that doesn't really allow the kind of manipulation I want. I also found it didn't like handling the click event anyway.
I'm thinking something along the lines of;
var saved = $(ele).getEvent('click'); //this function doesn't exist yet $(ele).unbind('click').bind('click.new',my_new_func).bind('click.old',saved);
When viewing the page in 1024x768 resolution, the jquery UI datepicker is covering the text input to which it is attached. This input is near the bottom of the page when viewing at that resolution, which seems to be causing the issue. I can't move the element so is there way to move the calendar? I'd like it to open with the bottom edge of the datepicker at the top edge of the text input.
I want to display the question and answer in the following way. When the user moves his mouse to one question, the question will be expanded to show detailed answer of that question.
For example,
1. What is UML?
2 How to implement it?
3 What is the advantage of UML?
When i move the mouse to the Question 1, the question will be expaned and have a detailed answer of it; if i don't move to there, the outline won't expand.
I search for a long time, but have no clue. What functions should be use???
