JQuery :: Building Unordred List - Using DIV With UL
Sep 8, 2010
I want to construct HTML for a menu and I want to use DIV with UL. The data for the link and text would be coming from a web service which is a sharepoint list like so. As you can see below I want to grab the rows and and it to anchor links...
$(document).ready(function() {
$().SPServices({
operation: "GetListItems",
async: false,
listName: "MenuList",
CAMLViewFields: "<ViewFields><FieldRef Name='Title' /></ViewFields>",
completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
$(xData.responseXML).find("[nodeName=z:row]").each(function() {
var liHtml = $(this).attr("ows_Title") ; $("#mainmenu").append(liHtml);
});
}});
});
The desired HTML would look like so
<div id="mainmenu">
<div id="header">
<ul id="navbar">
<li class="menu"><a href="#">Home</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">liHtml </a></li>
<!--I want to keep adding the <li> element with new item-->
<li><a href="#">Menu item 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Menu item 3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Menu item 4</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Menu item 5</a></li>
</ul></li>
</ul></div>
</div>
I want to build a dynamic list of items with jquery but am unsure how to add an index number to each of the items i create so that i can reference them to edit or delete them for example. So far, I have the following which just creates the items and appends or prepends them to the element depending on whether one item exists already. I just need a way of adding an attribute so I can then reference the current item when clicked and remove it. What would be the simplest method to use?
//create list items if ($('.mylistitem').length) { $('.myList-box').prepend('<div class="mylistitem"><div class="mylistitem-image"><img width="30" height="40" src="[URL]"/></div><div class="mylistitem-title">' + title + '</div><div class="mylistitem-options"><a href="javascript:removetitle();">Delete From List</a></div>'); } else { $('.myList-box').append('<div class="mylistitem"><div class="mylistitem-image"><img width="30" height="40" src="[URL]' + titleid + '"/></div><div class="mylistitem-title">' + title + '</div><div class="mylistitem-options"><a href="javascript:removetitle();">Delete From List</a></div>'); }
I've built a tool where users can search for something & the results show up in a select list as selectable options..... sometimes the results can take a few seconds to load depending on how many results there are... so I was attempting to show some "Results are loading" text when they search, & then hide it when they are displayed.
However for some reason it's not working correctly.. both commands don't appear to work until the select list options have loaded & hence rendering them redundant.... I have tried putting them inside separate functions but no change in the behavior.
What basically happens is I press the button to search & it searches & once the results show up so does the loading text.... however if I include the hide text command then the text doesn't show at all as it's hidden as soon as it's shown.
Here is the code I am using..
function searchCats(text) { // Set URL for ajax request var url = 'search_cats.php?search_text='+text; // Set up element we're modifying
I am trying to build a webapp for questionnaires where I can defined the questions in json, and have a single html page using jquery to build the UI. Since there will be a finite number of question types, e.g free text questions, multiple choice questions my code can choose how to render each type appropriately.
what is considered the best approach to build a UI like this?
I have seen the manipulation api with methods such as append() but I'm not sure if appending the html tags via strings (e.g. "<input id='answer'/>") is going to be the best way to achieve this, or whether there is a better way to define snippets of html for the different question types and copy them into the page as necessary?
i was building a website using two jquery codesfirst one for the slideshow banner and the other one for the menu but only one of them works, i've search on the web and i fouond something called jquery no conflict()is this good?this is the code inside de <head> tags
I have several <img> lines in my markup that contain an onmouseover attribute, as shown below: <img id="flowersPic" class="queue" class="queue" src="media/flowers.jpg" onmouseover="playVideo('flowers.flv'); "/> . .<img id="animalsPic" class="queue" src="media/animals.jpg" onmouseover="playVideo('animals.flv'); "/> . .<img id="waterPic" class="queue" src="media/water.jpg" onmouseover="playVideo('water.flv');"/> . .</body>I want to use jQuery to build a standard JavaScript array of just the video names in the onmouseover attribute. So for the markup above the array would be the stringsflowers.flvanimals.flvwater.flvI expect the jQuery will be something likev=$(img.queue).??????.get();but I'm really not sure what should go in the ?????? area.
I'm requesting a very large JSON dataset for a table via AJAX and I'm building it on the fly with JQuery. What would be the most efficient way to build it?
I have a slider set up that navigates fine using 'next' and 'prev' buttons. There are 14 slides and I have 5 buttons at top that I need to point to specific slides in the layout. Content is static and there will always be 14 slides, and the links will always link to the same slide.So I can manually set IDs for those slides and I can also manually designate each link to go to whatever slide... but I'm not sure how to move forward.My existing slider code is very basic:
I am working on a rapid html prototyping framework. This would allow me (as an interaction designer) to create html prototypes fast.I have been looking in templating plugins to help with building the templates or filling them with content. For example {{ lorem_ipsum }} would be replaced with a few paragraphs of random text. This is easy to do with several plugins.
However it would be great to be able to add a bit more flexibility by using functions like {{ loremWords(100) }} which would add 100 random words which are different for each replaced item. Or something similar to add a menu or other snippets.It is probably not too difficult but so far I have not gotten it working yet. And the pluginsI have found are either too complex, requires script tags or can't handle functions.
I'm trying to build a PC building form using drop-down menus. I want to use the values of each option in the menu and add them together to get the total price, then display the total price somewhere on the page.
I'm trying to combine some javascript variables into a URL, so I can pass the screen resolution to PHP to determine how large a popup window should be.
What I want to end up with is something like: <a href="url.php?w=1024&h=768">Click me</a>
I'm still working on same task New problem: When I place text in a rectangle, then wish to overwrite it,(that is replace it with new test,) I cannot remove the earlier text. The new overlays the old, an unreadable mess.
Moreover, what I have achieved works only in Opera. FF tells me I have too much recursion (None that I'm aware of). I cannot get any feedback from IE.
I have a form that has two radio buttons. When the first one is clicked, I would like the page to refresh (keeping the form data in tact) and then displaying 2 new fields that need to be filled out. If the second button is clicked, I need the same thing to happen, only it will display two different fields needing to be filled out.
Does anyone have code that will do this? Or is this even possible with JavaScript?
OK, I am looking for advice or tips and suggestions. I have overcome a lot of the obstructions I had to building the page design my customer was asking for. I am looking now at ways to deliver content dynamically within the wonderful framework I created. Whilest I look into the various methods of delivering content within a container of one form or another in the existing HTML, I am also exploring the possibility of using some form of 'wrapper' for existing flat pages sorta like how geocities does to user pages to add the yahoo pull-down div layers and such.
While doing some testing, I notice that if I just add a javascript tag in the beginning, I can't use the document.body.AppendChild option for the div layers unless I call the function that builds said layers from a <body onload="">. When I do it from the onload event, the existing HTML layers can effect the placement of the div layers even when I have the CSS position set to absolute.
Short of using some form of server side code to insert at least the DIV content in prior to dropping the file on the user's browsers, I was wondering if there were any other suggestions on how to do this with a minimal amount of coding in the HTML document itself. One of my hopes is to limit the 'modifications' to any standard HTML file to one or two lines so that anyone else developing pages can do so easily, and/or I can create reasonably foolproof server-side wrappers to call the javascript code to paste on the 'look-and-feel' elements on just about any web page.
I have a feeling I will probably go the server-side route anyway, but I was just curious what other suggestions there might be out there.
I want to do this with a checkbox and am falling down on it... Code: var i=0, elem, qstr=''; while(elem=document.forms['form1']['quantity'+(++i)]){ qstr += (qstr.length ? '&' : '?') + 'quantity' + i + '=' + elem.options[elem.selectedIndex].value; }
Here is the checkbox Code: <input type="checkbox" name="approved[]" onclick="boxchk(this,6)" checked="checked" value="'".$j['id']."'"/>
I am very new to web development. I would like my website to have an application which allows a user to draw images which can be displayed on other users screens in real time.
An example of this is isketch.net Also on this site i would like users to be able to create accounts and join 'rooms' where they can communicate in real time (as opposed a forum message board). I am looking for something similar to isketch.net
Could somebody please tell me the type of development and programming needed. I have been quoted 1000 a month to build these capabilities but have no idea what is involved. (also may require facebook style real-time updating)
I am trying to build my first script. My problem, is I'm trying to build a multi hide/show script, displaying paragraphs of information. If I want multiple variables for the script do I have to use an array? and if so, how can I construct this array?
Here is my script as of now,
<!-- // this tells jquery to run the function below once the DOM is read $(document).ready(function() {
[code]....
Right now the script doesn't work with the bottom two variables profile_"ect."
I'm fooling around with building a form that grows depending on the users input (relatively new to DOM 2 - but fun stuff!) I'm working on getting it to work (rather than being pretty - there are many improvements that could be made).
My question is has anyone seen any similar examples out there? The more I build on this thing, the more I believe there has to be another way... (like rather than creating every pull-down box - yes, I should put that into it's own function! - should I be playing with visibility and positioning?) Code:
I want to be able to set 'thevariable' in the shtml page that calls that include and pass it to that string - I'm thinking that because I don't want to use php/asp that Javascript is the best way?
I'm building a web site ala autos.yahoo.com on servicos.mpl.pt/comparador/css1.php I have a sidebar with filtering options grouped in an accordion. The accordion panels get populated via jquery like:
point out where my logic is flawed in this? Or where my scripting is wrong?I'm trying to build a standard HTML table with 5 columns across and as many rows down as necessary, to fit all of the images in an array (brought into the DOM via PHP).My goal is to have rows of 5 columns that add on to accomodate up to 50 total images (10 rows).Here's my logic (flawed or not):*Look at the number of tems in the array*If the number is greater than 5, build one full row (of 5 <td>s)*Check again - is the number of items in the array greater than 10?*Build another row*If not, build a partial row, and fill in the rest of the <td>s (less than a full row) with blank spaces.The question is whether or not my logic is being represented in the javascript?unctions in <head>calls to function on lines 149-159Don't mind the formatting, I've blown it up so I can see what's going on.
I have a page that displays a list of people playing in a tournament. I need to be able to generate a Leaderboard based on which players are manually selected by the admin. Next to each person there is a drop-down list. An admin can go in and select a "slot" that a player should be in on the leader board from 1 to 8, or leave it blank if none. What I need to figure out how to do is the following, when a change event happens on a drop-down list, and say the value 5 is selected, I need to check to make sure that 5 is not already selected in one of the other players drop-down lists, in other words, that the 5th leaderboard slot is not already full. if it is, display an error message and make them change that one first. how to do that with jQuery? I'm thinking it will have something to do with the each() function, but not sure exactly how the logic should work.
I have a facebook game that I would like to create an autoroller for. What the game does is you get a base login and you click an object and you collect common, semi rare, and rares. I want the autoroller to take whatever money the user puts in a field and start rolling for those prizes. To give you an example [URL]. I have 3 scripts written already, 1 in html and 2 in java, but I don't know how to execute them.
I have an array but I'm not exactly sure how to finish the build using an if statement. I have 6 elements and need the build to load a different top image for each array that loads that matches the specific element. Here is what I have but it only shows the first top image no matter what:
