JQuery :: How To Select Element By Finding It Through Tab Button
May 29, 2010
For example, if we press tab in a page and the tab finds an A Link and then we press enter, it will be like Clicking in the link. I would like to know how do I do to make that kind of selection in my element, cause I wanna make a function to select the item so the user when pressing enter it opens the <a> link.
I'm fairly new to jquery and I've been stumped on this one for a day now. I'm creating a lighbox type photo gallery on a page. The box is simply a hidden div that is displayed when the user clicks a link. When the link is clicked to launch a gallery I'm using the .load() function to grab another page and load it into the hidden div which is now displayed.
The code looks like this $('#galleryBox').load('boxModal.php?ID=' + ID)); The issue I'm having is after I load up the gallery box with boxModal.php.. I want to be able to respond to the click or mouseover event of the images that have loaded in that box. But I can't seem to find the images in the DOM. Is it possible to add event handlers to images loaded using the .load() function?
I have a calendar in which each day is a separate div, and all these are within a container div #cal. When a user mouses over one of the days, I want to figure out the index number of that day's div within #cal. Simplified example:
I can easily get the index of #nov2 from Firebug if I do this in the console: $('#cal div').index($('#nov2')
But, I can't figure out how to write a function so that I don't need to assign an id to each day div. I'd like to be able to just take "this" from the moused-over div, and pass that to a function that can turn it into the needed index.
I am working on a little project with fullcalendar but while writing some callback functions stumbled upon an issue: Fullcalendar generates html that looks like this: <a><span></span><span></span><span></span></a>.
Now there is an eventClick callback that is fired when clicking on that <a> element. However, in that callback I would like to know which <span> element was clicked.
Since jQuery parses the entire dom first, is there any efficiency gain in directing it via the entire CSS chain rather than directly to an ID? That is, if I have a Div with an ID of "foo" and it contains a P with an ID of "bar", is there any speed advantage in using $(div#foo p#bar) as opposed to just using $(p#bar), assuming jQuery would be more efficient if it had both indexes?
Basically, I'm looking for a way to find a list element that has a ul child, and then hide or show that ul. What I have here doesn't seem to be working.
I'm pretty new to jQuery and this is giving me a lot of trouble! I found some code jQuery code to give me a great start but I can't get the logic to where I need it to be. Here is what I have:
What would be the easier way to do this? For each of the list elements I want to check how many image elements are inside each, and do something with the one that has only one image.
I want to call stop() on an element animated with animate() based on a user hover. I also want to figure out how close to complete the animation was when the user hovered.
In a simple case I would just compare the animated element property's current value (ie height) to its target value, but in this case I'm creating a generic animator and don't actually know (without a ton of otherwise unnecessary housekeeping) what properties are being animated.
On page load it will evaluate this drop-down and repopulate it determined on their values. If there is an S in any of the values the drop-down will generate an option for 'S' like so.. <option value="s">S Option Text</option> And for the first code example in this post - the Javascript would be able to repopulate the drop-down with the following:
However this doesn't always work in my script. Now, I've googled how to find the position of an element. And come accross many scripts which supposedly all find the position of any object. Some are very long scripts and some are very short all using a variety of methods. Incidently none of which work, they all return (0,0).
I forget how to do this. Maybe somebody can point me to a decent tutorial. But I'm looking to grab the width of an <li>, including padding and margins that doesn't have a set width, and has one of 'auto' or 0.

I have a question, why would someone create a script to do what one line of code can do? Am I missing something.
Is it possible to do this? Say I want to find out where on the screen a specific div is, and i want to know the values of the left and top properties. Can i find this out? If so, how?
The first time you click a radio button in IE8, no value is returned at all (tested with document.write of the 'check' value), with an error "'null' is null or not an object". The second (and rest of the times) you click any of the checkboxes the wrong value is returned, it returns the value of the currently checked button (which we checked a moment ago) rather than the one we have checked the second time. Does Internet Explorer have issues with this onchange function method? Or is something wrong with my code?
I'm having some problems understanding the append() function. What I'd like to do is select an element using it's ID and add a row to the table with a HTML form element. The table is dynamically generated using a Django template ( form.as_table() ) so I'm not able to alter the original HTML markup too much.
I have a javascript tool in which I can supply a listener function, which has the parameter 'div', which is a dom element. Now I would like to apply $('a.enlargement').fancyzoom({Speed:0,showoverlay:true}); to that div, but I only have the reference. I know about the 'find' function, but that can only be run on a selection object. So how can I do this?
I have the following code: $('select.interest').change(function(){
var value = $(this + 'option:selected').text(); console.log(value); )};
I just want to get the text of the select element I just changed. However, this is returning the text of the selected value of ALL the select elements on my page.
I have a page with various elements, some visible, some invisible, as they become visible depending on user input.I am looking to select the visible elements, then within that collection, get the last element in the flow and manipulate it.
