JQuery :: LavaLamp - Rollover Line Does Not Align With Navigation Text
Oct 18, 2010
I am using the lava lamp plugin on my navigation page and I am having trouble fixing an issue I have got. I have it working perfectly, it sits right within he height of the nav and when I rollover it works. The only problem I have is when I rollover the lavalamp line does not align with the navigation text. I have attached a screen shot so you can see how it is working and if you wanted to have a look I have attached the code:
This is the CSS;
Copy code
ul, li {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
} #line {
width:auto;
height:15px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
top: 35px;
float:right; .....
This is the Jquery;
Copy code
(function($) {
$.fn.spasticNav = function(options) {
options = $.extend({
overlap : 20,
speed : 500,
reset : 2000,
color : 'none',
easing : 'easeOutExpo'
}, options); .....
I'm working on a website and am having trouble figuring out where I can add/edit the text for the navigation buttons, HOME, ABOUT, CONTACT, etc. There is a rollover.js file and the rollover effect works fine, I just can't figure out where to put the text for the navigation buttons and after a week of trying different things I thought I'd come here and try to get it working. My meager JS knowledge isn't enough. I started this website from a template in case you're wondering. Here's some of the code starting with where the images are preloaded then a few lines farther on are the onmouseover and onmouseouts.
When you have a list of elements (gallery of images in my case) with align:left style, in the line break they can fall not to the beginning of a new line, but to the side of some previous element that has a bigger heigth. This is a javascript to correct the position of these elements:
I am having a bit of trouble attempting to get this button roll over stuff working. I have looked up some really simple code to create a image rollover action for my navigation buttons. But nothing happens when I hover on any of the buttons though. When I use firebug to figure out what is wrong, it says that $(this) is the document and not the image button. The example/preview is here: [URL].
This is the jQuery code here for quick reference: <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ $('#navigation img').hover( function() { $(this).src = $(this).src.replace("Red","Yellow"); }, function() { $(this).src = $(this).src.replace("Yellow","Red"); }); }); </script>
I'm building a WordPress site with a nice jQuery effect that fades/unfades images within a navigation menu on rollover. So when the mouse moves off the image, the colored image should fade back to reveal the original non-colored image. This works perfectly as-is, but client wants the active page to keep its colored/ highlighted menu image when mouse has moved off of it. The bolded line of the code is where I tried to set that up...
Code: <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' => 'menu-header', 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?> <script type="text/javascript"><!-- this is from [URL]--> // make nav images highlight on hover // when the DOM is ready: $(document).ready(function () { // find the navigation elements and hook the hover event $('#mainmenu li').hover(function() { // on hovering over, find the element we want to fade *up* var fade = $('> div', this);
// if the element is currently being animated (to a fadeOut)... if (fade.is(':animated')) { // ...take it's current opacity back up to 1 fade.stop().fadeTo(250, 1); } else { // fade in quickly fade.fadeIn(250); }}, function () { // on hovering out, fade the element out if (!is_page(current)){ var fade = $('> div', this); if (fade.is(':animated')) { fade.stop().fadeTo(3000, 0); } else { // fade away slowly fade.fadeOut(2000); }}});}); </script>
WordPress should know whether the page is 'current' or not, so why doesn't this work? Currently the nav images remain highlighted when the mouse moves away. If I remove my attempt (the bolded line of code) then nav rollovers work beautifully, but active page still isn't represented with a colored nav menu image.
I am trying to figure out whether or not there is an effective way to cut up the navigation on the right side of this banner so I can use the standard image swap. I am asking in this forum because I need to know if this will even work in the first place.
it is possible to align a paragraph of text so it is placed in the middle of any browser window, using only html and css. Can this be done without js? If not, how much javascript will I need to know in order to do that?
I have included image slider and lavalamp menu in one of my projects. The problem here is both works well in Firefox. But not working in IE. I have included easing for the jquery.
I tried inserting the lavalamp effect into my wordpress theme.However, I was unsuccessful.I was wondering if anyone could help me out a bit and tell me where I went wrong? It isn't working and i'm not sure what I need to do in order to make it work?I have tried putting .lavaLamp after my #nav tag. That didn't work so I put it after my #header tag (which is where the css changes, etc. were anyway).Then, I uploaded an external css file for the .lavaLamp class.Still no dice.I refuse to move on in my theme creation until I have this figured out.
I have 6 image buttons that I want to create a rollover caption for. So for each image, when you rollover it a text title appears and thendisappearswhen you rollout. There will be a different title for each image and will be located in the sameposition. I'd also like to have the text fade in and out if it's not to complicated.I already have the following code to create a smooth image rollover:
I have two javascript elements (banners) within a div that I would like to style side by side. What is the best way to style javascript for image one to align left and image 2 to align right? And will this work across all browsers?[code]
I'm trying to select a line a text and format it, only problem is there are no tags around it other than a closing </p> tag and a <br /> tag after it. Please see below the line in bold text which I'm trying to surround with <h3></h3> tags. [code]...
getting first line coordinates of multiple line inline element.
Example HTML aaa bbb ccc ddd <span id="target">eee fff ggg hhh iii jjj</span>kkk lll mmm nnn ooo ppp qqq $(document).ready(function() {
[Code]....
Assume that span#target has a line break, when I see a browser. Then I click span#target, above function returns the head of coordinates which second line ("hhh") has. I want to have the coordinates which first line ("eee") has. How can I get that?
I'm trying to implement a minimal navigation bar using jQuery's toggleClass() function but can't seem to get it working.
It's the .img_selector div at the bottom of the page:[url]
I want to toggle the 'active' class for each <a> when it's selected, to indicate which image is showing, so after calling jQuery, in the <head> I've got:
Then the links, which also include the showPic function:
Instead of doing a regular rollover which would require me to make 50 images with text in photoshop on I want the rollover but want to add the the text in html for exmaple I want something like this [URL]
In the services section with the 8 images you can see how I am TRYING to make the site work. The idea is that when scrolling over an image the related text will appear in the right column. This is to happen for each image with different text for each. The problem (as I'm sure is quite clear from using the site) is that there is a lot of jumping. When an image is not selected the images should stay in 2 columns with text to the right.
"Scroll over the images for a brief description of the services we provide." I doubt I'm describing this well but this is all new to me... I have used javascript to control these rollovers.
I am trying to integrate with my page it worked but ever since I used this form validation the lavalamp went away: [URL] This is the link to the lavalamp: [URL] So the lavalamp should work like this: [URL] But instead it doesn't like this: [URL] and I am not sure why, also the form validation doesn't work very well at all.
is there a way to popup a small 'bubble' or 'balloon' of text when a user lets their pointer rest over a particular part of an image? (an image map)
explorer does this sometime (randomly it seems) when i let my pointer rest of an image that has alt text - it displays the alt text in a speech bubble thing - but only sometimes! so that is no good. also netscape doesn't have this and obviously i want something that'll work in both.
the reason i want to do this is this - i've got a simplyfied map (a geographical map) as a picture. there's a small piece of info i wish to show for each country, but the map is too small to allow me to put the information directly on the map - so i figured popup bubbles would be a good way.
