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.
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?
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?
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?
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 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"});
I am echoing some dynamic content into a DIV based on form entries. The content is essentially a dynamic table, with results populated based on the user input. The user can further refine the database results by entering more data into other fields. All of this works fine. What I'd like to add is the ability to click on an <a> tag header on each column to sort by that column. I haven't gotten it to work, so I wanted to try a more simple test. I currently echo <a id='test' href='#'>Click Me</a> into the DIV set aside for AJAX response. I then setup a jquery .click() event monitor to simply alert me when I click on it. If I place this <a> tag in the main portion of the content that is static, I get the alert box. But when I put this into the content of the DIV tag generated dynamically by AJAX, it doesn't fire the alert. Is there something I need to do to 'reload' the page? Is the dynamically added content not part of the document since the entire page isn't reloaded?
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:
I`m trying to make selecting an select list option (as it become when we click on it)by clicking on a special pseudo element.I`m trying to do it in this way:
I'm trying to append an onChange attribute to an element created through javascript. The following doesn't work. The select is created and has the proper name and id but no onChange..
var sel = document.createElement('select'); sel.name = 'size[' + i + ']'; sel.id = 'size[' + i + ']'; sel.onchange = "changeMini();";
I have written some dom code to create a list of divs, each with it's own id. I want to set the onmouseover and onmouseout events to highlight the div when the mouse is over it. However I cannot use the method below because oDiv.id is always set to the last div I create - so the last div is highlighted regardless of which div I am onmouseover This must be a common issue, how do I go about fixing it?
I can have a separate function which takes event.srcElement and tracks back through the parent elments until it finds a div with an id starting with "entry_" but I was hoping for an easier option.
I'm trying to check to see if a dynamically created element exists BEFORE creating another element of the same exact type...but my if statement at the beginning is not working and another element is just created.
function writeElement(id) { if(document.getElementsByTagName('transElement')[0]) { var id = id; killElement(); writeElement(id); } var id = id; var transElement = document.createElement('transElement'); [Code]...
Code: //next we need to create a row workingTR = workingTable.insertRow(position+i); // then I use setAttribute to set the class
[Code]....
the row (tr) is being assigned the class of employee-detail, and I've confirmed this by looking throught the dom explorer. however, it's NOT inherting the CSS formating that is located in a external file .css. I hard coded in a row with the same class 'employee-detail' and it inherited the css formatting.
I'm wondering why my javascript created row is not inheriting the css class formatting.
I am trying to dynamically create child elements and add a background image before appending it to the parent node. Everything is working except for the image files actually appearing. When you inspect the element in Mozilla, it reveals that the li elements have all been created and attached, and even contain the "style" attribute. I am certain it is my reference to the image array that I am not calling correctly... how to use the array to reference the new background image? external js file:
