JQuery :: UI Dialog Resize - Width And Height Settings?
May 17, 2009
I had problem when try to reuse div element with ui.dialog().If I set the width & height the first time it works; but if I call it from second function with different width & height it won't apply the new setting. Also if I manually resize the dialog when it appear after close and reopen it use the new size (resized manually) not the one I specified in the code.is it possible to resize the dialog before it show up?
I have always been using Prototype but I finally made the switch to jQuery because of its good documentation and large user base.
I have a problem that I hope someone can solve. The problem is that I cannot correctly set a size of my dialog when loading the content using Ajax.
I have the following code:
The content is loaded but the dialog is not sized properly. I guess that it depends on the content being changed after the dialog has been initialized. Is there a nice way to solve this problem?
I tried the following solution (not very good looking but anyway...)
This causes the size to be correct but it doesnt center the window and it also removes scrollbars from the content. I must have the scrollbars but I want the dialog not to exceed the viewport.
Another solution is to download and use YET ANOTHER third party plugin but hey comeon, shouldnt jQuery UI be able to do this?
I'm trying to build a background in two parts. The header bg is in the body and the lower part is a div with a gradient background color generated by CSS3 or IE filters. I had problems with getting the gradient to stretch all the way to the side in IE7 with plain CSS so I had to start looking for more watertight solutions.
[Code]...
If there are easier methods to solve this split background thing than JavaScript, I'm all ears. I can PM the address of the website, if someone wants to take a look.
$('.openDialog').click(function(event){ var width=$(this).attr('width'); var height=$(this).attr('height');
[code]...
I'm trying to do something like above, where I pass the width and height into the Dialog box but it doesn't take the variable.It only works if I put an actual number here instead of a variable.
I wanted to resize the modal dialog based on the content of the modal dialog for that i used the following lines of code:
The 'document.body.scrollHeight' is not giving the exact height of the modal dialog bcos the button on the modal dialog are not completely visible to click for the user.
How to get the exact height of the modal dialog to resize it?
I'm using serialscroll jquery plugin from ariel Flesler on this page : http://goo.gl/HMNUX the width of the container (#slideshow) is 100% of the window's width. everything is fine until the user resize the window. Then the pictures are not in the right position anymore. should reset the "offset" setting of the plugin on resize. I tried this, but it doesn't work :
I'm using the Sortable/Portlets UI Code. Is it possible to auto-resize the Containment Height's. Bascially I have a DIV that acts as a container with a black background, when I sort these elements I want the container DIV height to change to match. OR is it possible to stop the bottom sortables from having sortables placed underneath them?
I've got a page [URL]... where I have to use a jquery function to stretch the body to the user's window height if it isn't already.
In the same code I also use a condition that if the body is bigger than the user's window, the content has a padding to stop it going over the grass.
The reason I need to do the resize is because I have a background image that needs to sit at the very bottom of the page (with no bar or gap below it). The reason the padding can only exist when the body is bigger than the window is because it will put a scrollbar on pages that shouldn't have them.
It works great, but the only trouble is that if somebody decides to resize their window on a page that fits in it - it breaks.
I've developped a mini-intranet and I've used for that some jQuery components especially UI Dialog.It works fine but sometimes I've a problem with Dialog I show. The problem is that the dialog's height is bocoming very important and it loose the vertical scroll bar.This is the function which call the dialog
function load_sub_jquery(url, specialite, var_sub_exp, titre) { $('#CMP_ajax_recipient').load('view/'+url+'.php','SPECIALITE='+specialite+'&VAR='+var_sub_ex
I've ran into this problem more than once, there are plenty of tutorials on how to toggle/fade a hidden div that already has data placed into it, but I want to $.load() a page into an empty div ID and then toggle/fade it into view.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this or find anyone in Google trying to either. This has to be the first time I've ran into a limitation of jQuery and it isn't even something that should be such a problem.
I'm facing the following problem: I'm using .append() method to add a new <div> on the fly and I need to read its width and height right after it's been created. How can this be doneMy current strategy to accomplish this task is:
$("#container").append( $("<div/>").append( $("<p>").html("This is a content example that goes inside my just created div")
I have a site that I'm building at [URL] which use the jquery cycle plugin for a slideshow. I won't post the code here because it's all there with view source at the above address. It's a work in progress. The slideshow is full width (the images in it are actually 2000px wide but looks full width), and works fine apart from when the browser window is resized. This is most noticable when you start with a smaller browser window and then resize it to be bigger.
The slides stay the same width as when the page loaded - I need them to adapt to the new width. I need the slideshow to be centered at all widths, so I've put the images in as backgrounds to divs with center positioning on them. I've tried getting the window width on resize and then applying it to the slides using jQuery, but the original calculated size overrides it when the slide changes.
I'm just starting my first jQuery project (tutorial from this months Web Designer) and I've got a background image that I want to spread across the entire background, regardless of browser size. It's big, so I originally had an onload function. This works fine in Mozilla and Safari but not in IE.
My question is, can jQuery set a width and height of 100% and have it work in IE?[code]...
I have x amount of draggable & resizable divs, they work as I want them to, I am outputting the coordinates of each div in a textfield. My problem is that the textfield only displays coordinates when a div is CLICKED, so when holding the mouseBtn and dragging a div around then releasing the mouseBtn the coordinates aren't displayed in the textfield. I tried to set 'mouseup' instead of 'click' but then the divs are being dragged around all the time even tho you released the mouseBtn. The second thing is that i want to output the size of the div in another textfield, so when a div is resized the new size of that div should be displayed in the textfield.
For the size I tried to work with function showWidth(ele, w) { $("div").text("The width for the " + ele + " is " + w + "px."); } $('#test').click(function () { showWidth("paragraph", $(this).width()); }); I want to send both size and x&y of each div to a database.
during the initial phase in the development of amuch more complex zomm&pan widget, i ended up with this tiny (yet another) zoom&pan plugin. Since it's small and with just few functionalities i'd call
I have a div with content that i want to overlay over some other content. The tricky part is getting it to be full browser width and height. This doesn't seem possible in CSS, so I'm looking for a jquery solution. It will basically fade in when a button is clicked. I'm comfortable with the fading it in etc, but I'm just having trouble working out the full screen part - especially since I want it to stay full screen even on browser re-size.
jquery width() and height() functions are consistently returning the wrong values for the viewport size (i.e. $(window).width). Anyone know why..or what I can do to fix it?
