JQuery :: Selecting And Rating Multiple Items From A List?
Jul 24, 2009
how to implement this bit of UI wizardry. I have a list of categories and the user is asked to pick all applicable items and then rate them individually. Right now I have a long list with checkboxes. Whenever a user checks one of the boxes a rating control pops up next to it and they just select the number of stars they want to rate the item.
Although this works for my purposes, it's a bit clumsy and takes up a lot of real estate (I have 30 items in the list so far and this may grow). What would be the best way to get this done?
I am missing something here but this is what I want to do. I want to select a checkbox as such
$('chkRequired'); Easy enough. But I want to then use $(this).attr('checked','true'); and then $(this).show(); and then $(this).next().show(); How can I formulate that into something like:
I have a javascript index that is similar to the one in the Windows help. It has a text field that allows the you to type text and it finds the closest item in the list below the text field. The list is simply a select element with options that looks like this:
My problem is when I have a large list, the closest entry selects the item in the list at the bottom of the list box, not the top of the list box.
So here's the question: Is there a way to get the list box to display the selected item and move it to the top of the list and not just find it at the bottom?
To get an idea of what I 'want' it to look like, in Windows, go to Help & Support (in XP it's in your start menu) and pick Index. I basically want it to mirror that functionality.
I have a cgi script (using perl for database queries) in which I have two select boxes. I am populating the left select box with rows from a database, and then provide buttons for people to move items to the right select box.
So far so good, everything works, the move right, move left, and move right all and move left all buttons work, data is always sorted in both lists. My only problem is, when I click the submit button, the follow up program only displays data that was highlighted/selected in the right select box, not all of the data in the right select box.
I don't know how to tell the script, via javascript, to highlight everything in the right select box when the submit form button is clicked. I would think i could just call a function via -onClick for the submit button. I could use some help with the function to select all data in that list.
I have a dynamic table where I would like to update cells by using a drop list selecting from half a dozen items. I have searched W3Schools for a tutorial but I am obviously looking in the wrong place. The working code I have thus far is:-
function insRow() { var x=document.getElementById('myTable').insertRow(1); var a=x.insertCell(0); var b=x.insertCell(1); var c=x.insertCell(2); var d=x.insertCell(3); var e=x.insertCell(4); var f=x.insertCell(5); [Code]...
I am writing a test harness for a web app using jquery. When recording a test, I add handlers for user interaction events (e.g. click on an A tag), and record details of the tag clicked. When playing back, I need to find the tag (so I can emulate a click on it). The A tags do not have id elements - the only unique way to identify then is to use the href. However, I have hrefs containing quote characters [typical hrefs include "javascript:Go('fred')" and even "javascript:Go("jimmy's ")"]. How do I construct a jquery selector to match these?
My first attempt (before I noticed the presence of the quotes) was
$("A[href='" + href + "']")
Interestingly, this hung the browser completely for many minutes!
I have an autocompleter in which i am trying to grab the text in the first element in a list of returned results from the db. I have been able to grab the first element in the list with the below code however, it brings up an alert for every realtime list that comes back so multiple times. Is there a clever way to make an if/else statement that forces it to alert only once?
var item = $('.title_div:first').text(); alert('this item ' + item + ' is the first to be showed');
For some reason my loadFirstPage in the following code is unable to find the dynamically created list items built up in the buildGallery function. I have a button in the extended code that calls the loadFirstPage function on a click which works perfectly when I click it
var buildNavi = function(){ var naviTemplate ='<li class="prev"><a href="#" title="Previous">Previous</a> </li><li><span class="current"></span><span class="total">
I have an accordian list much like the example here : Say for instance i have page links under the heading 'Section 2' of that demo.How can i make it so that when you visit a page from these links 'Section 2' is now active (by that i mean expanded, instead of the first item as default)I am looking at this information provided on the same page , but it's not really making sense to me.Selector for the active element. Set to false to display none at start. Needs collapsible: true.Code examplesInitialize a accordion with the active option specified.
$('.selector').accordion({ active: 2 });
Get or set the active option, after init.
//getter var active = $('.selector').accordion('option', 'active'); //s
I am having checkbox list and on top "add new" link. As I click on add new link dialog box appear exactly on checkbox list with form items and with submit button and as I click on submit button. Checkbox list appear with new added items.
I have selected a list that contains sub-lists. Now, I'd like to search for the list items that contain sub-lists (but not including the sub-list-items). I think the example below will explain what I'm trying to do.
HTML: <ul class="start-here"> <li>Do Not Need</li> <li>NEED THIS ITEM[code].....
I have created a simple portfolio item for a site I am working on, with left and right buttons to move between the visible thumbnails in the portfolio.
The problem is this: when I click on one of the left or right buttons used to scroll the active list items, it resizes the space between all of the thumbnails by 1 pixel per click, up to 10 clicks.
I have a multiple select list <select id=mylist name=mylist[]> <option id=1>first</option> <option id=2>second</option> <option id=3>third</option> <option id=4>fourth</option> <option id=5>fifth</option> </select>
Then I have a string of id's that I want to set to selected like so. var selectedIds = '1,3,5'; Is it possible to use jquery (preferably in a one liner) to set first, third and fifth to selected.?
How would I target (with jQuery or normal javascript) the 5th and 6th li in an unsorted list for styling? I need to change the css for only 2 items in a list.
I want to modify the appearance of an unordered list by assigning a value to each list item and then setting the custom properties for each list item. At first I was thinking of assigning a number to each list item and then controlling it's properties via that number.But now I'm wondering if jQuery can do a search for the list items content.
I am having difficulties to deal with a simple remove function.
I have an item list with "listitem" css class. I placed a button on each item to delete it. I am now trying to use the remove function to erase it from the page. I thought $(this).remove(); will work but it doesn't. I also tried something like this: $(this).parent('.listitem').remove(); but it didn't work.
When I write $('.listitem').remove(); it erased all the items of the list. I m just trying to be able to erase just the one clicked.
I followed a tutorial in .net magazine (a UK web design mag) on how to fade images using jQuery. I have followed it and I can now fade images for my menu, problem is, I am not sure how to append the code to all my to fade images for non list items. For example, I have a call to action button (just a telephone number with a graphic, I have used css sprites to add a hover to the graphic, but would now like to fade it using jquery. Still not managed to get this working, here is what I for my menu, which fades the images perfectly.
I have a list of links in a sidebar, each with an associated class name. When one of these links are clicked, I want to fade out all of the main content list items that do NOT have this class (ie - if I click on boots, I want to fade out the list items heels and sandals)
I've got an infinite jQuery carousel, which is working, however I need to make a couple of tweaks and I don't know where to start. Below is the code for a visually simplified, but technically identical version:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URL]"> <html xmlns="[URL]"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Page Title</title> <script src="[URL]" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $.fn.infiniteCarousel = function () { function repeat(str, num) { return new Array( num + 1 ).join( str ); } .....
Basically, I'm trying to achieve two things: 1. The script creates empty carousel items; these are visible in yellow when you scroll through the items by clicking on the blue squares. How can I remove these so that item '6' goes straight back to item '1', without the two empty list items in between? 2. At the moment two clicks allow you to see all 6 'real' squares, plus the two empty yellow ones. How can I make it so that it scrolls one list item at a time, rather than 4 at present?
