JQuery :: Find Elements Whos Width Was Specified By CSS ?
Feb 5, 2010
Is it possible to select the elements who's width was specified by CSS? It's easy if they specified it by the width attribute *[width]. If you look at each elements css('width') it shows what was specified or automatically generated (always something).
I am trying to setup a javascript function that sets a div's width based on the combined width of the li's with the name "navItem". The problems I have been running into when trying to define the width of the li's is that they do not have a width defined in css. Can anyone help me out with this? The javascript function setWindow is suppose to show the div loginWindow and set the width of it.
I'm trying to get the width of the elements contained in a div. At the moment that was my best try : $("div.mydiv").children().width(); But all I get is the width of the first child.
What I need is the width of child1 + child2 + child3 etc.... each child might have a different width and they can be a div or an image <img>.
What would be the best way to find the largest width of all child elements? Yes, the containing block should be the largest width but in my case there could be some overflow that is larger than the container.
How can I find the height and width of a webpage? Say I want to make sure someone's webpage is within an 800X600 viewing area. Width is the most important but if I can get width, I should also be able to get height.
I don't need to modify the page in anyway. Just get the width and height. I can reference the page in an iframe, cfhttp (CFMX) or something if it needs to be on my server.
I'm really not sure how to go about doing this, so any and all pointers are welcome. What I'd like to do is be able to find the position and width of a word that has been typed inside of a <textarea>, so that I might overlay some absolutely-positioned elements on top, and size them properly. I would really like to be able to do this in the most general case as possible (independent of fonts, font size, size of the textarea, etc.), but as stated any help is welcome.
I can't seem to find an XML element when it has a prefix. Here is the example from the jQuery.parseXML() page. The only difference between the example and the code below is that I've used the element <foo:title> instead of <title>. I get no errors in my browser, but I also get no results appended to #someElement.
Does xml.find method work if the element has a prefix?
How to find various elements in the document with jQuery?
Example.
I want to find two tags - <span> and <p>.
I'm trying to use jQuery.find, but he search of one in one.End does not return what elements were found, and how many were. And how do you know which elements have been found?
I've got a rather odd situation (in so far as it is probably uncommon)- for a variety of reasons that I don't want to get into on here, I have to replace a DIV with another fairly similar DIV that has an identical ID to the original as well as several child elements that also have identical IDs to the content in the original DIV. This all happens after the page load is complete. The problem is that JQuery can't locate any of the new elements by ID. I assume that's because it's already generated a model of the DOM that contained elements with identical IDs, but now that the old IDs no longer correspond to valid objects, jquery has nothing to return when I search for the new elements.So question:Is there any way to force JQuery to rebuild the DOM model? Or alternatively, is there a way that I can force JQuery to index the new elements once they've been added to the page?
does jquery selectors allow one to find all elements except for one on a page? For example, I want to use the fadeOut method to fade out the entire page except for one element (kind of like the lightbox plugin). Any idea of how to construct this selector?
How can I find all elements that have a attribute starting with some character?
Everywhere I found example like: $("[href$='.jpg']") which checks for all tags having an attribute "href" with value ending with "jpg" But how can I instead find all tags having a attribute having name ending with 'f'
something like $(img[$f]) ... trying to find all img with attribute ending with g
I've been fiddling around with a bit of javascript in a chrome extension - something to alter the Google buzz webpage.I'm trying to find each individual post basically and have the following:
var entry =$('.X0POSb'); //This main block contains the bulk of Google buzz content console.log(entry); var items = entry.find('.G3.G2');
I have a ASP.NET gridview which is rendered as a HTML table. There are 2 columns in the grid. First column is a checkbox and second column is a input textbox in which the user will enter a amount. I want to be able to loop through the rows of the table using jquery to find out the rows that have a checked checkbox and then sum the value in the corresponding textbox in which the user will enter a amount. In other words how do I loop through the table and find out the elements on the same row on the table.
In my form, the user can check only one option: either * ship to default address * ship to new address
Both options are radio buttons. They both have the same instance name, but different ids. That way the user is forced to choose either one or the other.
My problem is that since both radio buttons have the same instance name, then I cannot get the value of the instance with JavaScript.
Is there any way that one could have supersubs functionality applied to drop-down multi-column menus?I assume one would need to calculate the width of each column plus the combined width for the container.
I currently have a website where i share thoughts with my friends (some kind of forum) and within this 'forum' people can post pictures they made but most of the time these pictures exceed the max width of my website so my website gets all streched out!So this is what i want: all images on the page must run thru some sort of function which checks if the image image width exceeds the max_width. if it does then the script must calculate how many pixels the current width exceeds the max_width and get this number so that the script does: current_width = current_width - (max_width - current_width)
I've recently start using Flexigrid (old JQuery grid plugin), and, as you may know, one of the few issue this really good grid plugin got is the lack of liquid layout option. My personal idea to solve the problem is to set the "width" parameter depending on $(window).width. Here is the problem (and here's why i post this question in "General use" and not in "Plugin").
The starting, and working, code is: $(document).ready(function(){ $("#flex1").flexigrid ( {
[Code].....
This work fine for me, but I supose it could be done way much elegant... maybe somethin without "IF" that could emulate the "%", like var percentage = $(#div.id).width()*0.XX with the 0.XX picked from an array of percentage, one for each column. Probably I should set up a function... ahhhh, as you may easily see I'm a total beginner with JQuery (and JS in general...)
Is the next jQuery code the best way to decrease an elements width?[code]I tried using the next code:[code]but that's not working, also not with '-20'.Maybe it's an idea to add this functionality? It's is already used in the .animate() function for changing the position of an element.
