JQuery :: 1.4 Live And An Event To Be Notified When A New Dom Element Is Created
Jan 20, 2010
I have live focusin and focusout bound for form validation. But if some content is created dynamically (either via a templating system or via ajax) it doesn't seem possible to initialise those elements (i have placeholder text that i might want to add inside the element for example).
Is there an event that is fired when an element is added to the dom?
The table, and the input id element, are dynamically created from database records and I use jQuery live to initialize the datepicker for each field, like so:
The idea is that when I click in the input field, the datepicker pops up and allows the user to input a date. While the date shows in the input field in the table, the value attribute of the input field is empty. I can't use the getDate() method on the datepicker, since I can't programmatically connect the datepicker element in any particular row with the input element in that row. I tried the onClose method shown below, but that doesn't work either. Has anyone done this successfully?
As far as I understood, stopPropagation() is supposed to stop events bubbling 'up' though the element tree (through parent elements). Eg. If I use stopPropagation() on a click event on an anchor element in a list, the event would not be triggered on the list. In my code I have a popup div, that needs to have stopPropagation(), as a click on the document (everywhere other than the popup) will hide it. When I add an element to the popup that has a live click event, the live click event is never called, even though it is a child element of the popup. Shouldn't the live click get called first? If I remove the stopPropagation all is well.. some code:
So, I read about the new method of passing an object map containing element properties when creating a new jQuery object (as discussed at the bottom of this article). The article says that it supports ALL events, but only gives examples of simple events that require no parameters. I'm trying to implement a live event using the following and can't get it to work:
var link = $('<a />', { text: config.appendTextMore, href: "#",
Imagine an element with a specific selector getting created and then once the element exists and the selector is applied, all of the behaviors are applied (events, styles and plugin methods).
[Code]...
This would be similar to the live event where a function is applied to the specified event of all selectors even if they do not exist yet. The only difference is that the event is not the typical peripheral driven event (mousemove, keyup,etc) but would be fired once that element exists in DOM.
This is a trimmed down version of my problem, '.myElement' gets duplicated on double click. In '.myElement' is content and a close button that when clicked removes itself.
The problem is "newly" created elements don't get the the dblclick or the child 'a.close' click events. i know i can double the events and re apply after the element is created but in my real version there is WAY more going on in each of these events and i don't want to create all that redundant code. i guess i can pull all the actions out into functions and bind after creation but even that is a little messy, is there an apply events feature in jQuery or something?
Am creating text input element dynamically using DOM and i want to pass a event when onchange event is triggered.. Am able to assign the function to it but failing to pass the event..
//Some other code //Here I create an input element of type text and assign a onclick event property var quantityTxt = document.createElement("input"); quantityTxt.type = "text"; quantityTxt.onclick = calcAmount();
[Code]...
Now my problem is that the above function gets called even when the cell has not been clicked, hope am clear enough,
I've come across an issue where I've got a dynamically created popup class that despite appearing to be bound according to Visual Event does not fire on clicking the closebutton attached to it. I'm not getting any errors in firebug and by setting breakpoints I've verified we are not reaching the code to execute. Ruling out the usual suspects such as obvious spelling mistakes/ swapping out jquery versions 1.3/1.4/1.5 doesn't make any difference.where else I can look?Here is the original function:
$this.find(".close").live('click', function() { var $this = $(this); $this.parents("." + sets.popupClass).remove();
I got this problem with live() event.I have used it as follows.
$(".addressDiv span").live("mouseover", function(){ //clickable function here...... ------------------------ });
I have used the live() event to trigger the function on mouseover in the dynamically added elements. But the problem i got is that once the live event is called it takes the class of the element and stores. And when the class of that particular element is changed dynamically the live() event does not detect the new classed added dynamically, instead it takes the former class. Live() event does not update the class.
I am trying to bind the live event to the fadeTo(). I am doing so because after the page is loaded, I am adding new elements to the page through ajax and need them to come in as faded. This is what I currently have. $('.work').fadeTo('fast',.35); This is what I have tried to do. $('.work').live(fadeTo('fast',.35)); Above does not seem correct, but I have searched for more info/documentation on using live() with fadeTo but have found nothing.
The requirement is, "save" operation should happen only when the form is "dirty". i.e., users should be able to save only when they modify something on the form.
For this, I'm using "dirty form plugin", which works fine even when new elements are added. It internally uses ".liveQuery()" for adding events to new elements but it is degrading the performance very badly, since our forms are very large. I'm trying to replace it with ".live" of jQuery 1.4.2, but have a problem.
When new elements are added, I want to store their initial values and on blur, i want to compare them with their latest values. I'm able to bind event handlers to new elements using ".live()", but I want to get notified when new elements are added, so that I can make the above check. Is there any way how I can check this?
I found the bug ticket with similar problem: [URL] but it was closed as invalid. The problem still exists for me. I have the following live event: $("a:not([onclick])").live('click', ajaxLinkHandler); It's not applying to content loaded via $.ajax(...).responseXML which I used to append in the following way:
// withing ajaxLinkHandler var content = $(loadedDocument).find("[component='"+ id +"']"); $(this.contentContainer).empty().append(content);
I am using JQuery 1.4.1. I have HTML input elements which created dynamically. I have assigned "focusin" event all input elements. While loading page, it is triggers only once while focusing each input element. When I minimize and maximize the page, focus event is fired multiple times. Finally it show "Stack overflow at line 0".
I then loop thru the array to assign the text and bind the click event after having created the buttons with IDs of "button_<index>".
for( var index in buttons ) { $("#button_"+index).html ( buttons[index].text ) .click( function() { clickButton( buttons[index].action ) } ); }
The text appears correctly in the button, but every button defined only fires the list bound click, in this example the action equal to'2'whether I push "Button 1" or "Button 2".My actual case has four buttons, all firing the event for the fourth button.I've tried not chaining the .click(), going thru the loop twice once for the .html and once for the .click, neither of which made a difference. If I hard code each button .click, it works fine.
The following: jQuery('<p><a>jQuery</a></p>'); is supposed to create a link on a page but it doesn't and the link don't show. I am using WAMP web server. What can be wrong and how do I check it please.
hi everybody, didn't find this using the search :( this is my problem: i create a dom element dynamically (<span>) and want to assign a class attribute to it such that it has some css style, this works in ie, but not in firefox :( here's the simple code:
<div id="somediv"></div>
var div = window.document.getElementById("somediv"); var span = window.document.createElement("span"); span.innerHTML = "span"; span.attributes.getNamedItem("class").nodeValue = "span_class"; div.appendChild(span);
so this works well in ie6, but firefox gives this error: Error: span.attributes.getNamedItem("class") has no properties
if i run this code on a statically defined span (in the html file), where a class attribute already is set:
changing the class to "span_class" works both in ie and firefox.
how can i fix my above code such that it works in both browsers? it seems that on newly created dom elements the class attribute isn't even there (to change it), how can i create it, and then change it?
I'm trying to remove an element that was created after the DOM was loaded using append().
I append the element to a div when the checkbox is checked. But if this checkbox is then unchecked I want to remove the element, but couldn't figure it out thus far.
After loading a HTML fragment using AJAX, I can not select the newly embedded elements using the $("#id") notation. document.getElementById works fine though.
I have a problem, I have a table which dynamically create <tr> elements with a unique numerical id, this is created on a while loop from a database statement, when I click on a hyperlink on each <tr> I use this:
[Code]...
So in this way, I'm sending the unique code (codigo) and I fadeToggle the <tr> identified with that specific id, it works, no problem, it display with one click, hides with another one, BUT, now I need that, when you click on a hyperlink, if any other <tr> is being displayed at the moment, close all of them, and open the clicked one, is there any way I can do this?
I am not completely new to JQuery, but not a beginner either. Anyway, I want to do some advanced stuff like creating everything dynamically with JQuery. So here's the rough concept: Step 1: Information get's collected Step 2: Information will be written in divs, the divs will get an ID and will be displayed with .append() Step 3: Setting css-propertys with the div's ID. I can't grab the div which I created with .append.
Actually I can't access anything which was created with .append - for example if I want to get an .attr() - I can't do it with these elements. Is there a workaround or am I wrong: $("#site").append("<div class='container' id=' " + containerId + "'>" + containerId + "</div>"); $("#" + containerId).css({ "left" : positionX + "px", "top" : positionY + "px", "background-color" : "#F000FA"});
