JQuery :: .click Event Not Triggering <a> To New Page?
Aug 23, 2010
I have some simple code to make a link open on page load. When the code fires it shows the alert 'clicked' but then nothing happens. The url is generated with APEX and if i click the link on the page physically the alert fires and the page redirects to the linked Url. Why isn't the click event working?
I am working on a page that will load in other pages using AJAX and the .html method. Something like this :
<span id = "edit">Edit</span> <div id = "cont"> </div> //the click edit script
[Code]....
Unfortunately this does not seem to work, entirely. It does trigger the click event but it messes up the post for some reason. I have played around with it for the last 45 minutes or so and it seems like the click event trigger is what is messing things up, if I comment it out it works fine. Could anyone tell me why they think this is? note this is an over simplified version of my actual code, but the structure is the same.
I have an object that has a click event I'm trying to trigger. However in the click event I have the following if statement:
if(event.button != 0){return true;}
This if statement allows right clicks to go through and activate but it also prevents me from triggering the event. Any ideas on how to prevent this? If I remove the if statement from the first click function everything works as intended.Here's my example code based off of the trigger event examples:
I have a function where I want to add a sibling element to each of the elements and trigger a click on each of them right away. Here's what I have so far:
For some reason the toggle doesn't get triggered. If I put something in the function right before the toggle, it fires on page ready. However, the toggle doesn't fire. toggleClass does, though. What can be causing this?
Is there a generic way to fire an event when the state/value of a checkbox is changed by another event - i.e. not a user action. In this scenario, I have a set of checkboxes with a "select all" checkbox. I have the code written such that checking or unchecking the "select all" checkbox updates the state of all of the checkboxes below.
The extra requirement here is that some of these checkboxes have "children". So, when you check one of these, its children are automatically checked as well. So, what I need to do is check the main "select all" checkbox, which would then check all of the immediate children, which would then check all of their immediate children. I tried both an onchange and onclick event, but neither seem to be firing.
I've spent a good while trying to solve this on my own with no luck. The .blur jquery event I'm trying to use isn't firing and I can't figure out why.My entire JS file:
I built a small JavaScript file that does some HTML and CSS manipulation when you hover over any tag with a certain class. It works great when running on the same server, but if I try to use the JS as an external script, the hover event isn't triggering. Here is my external JS file code:
$(document).ready(function() { alert('i work inside'); $(".start").hover( function (e) {
I have a checkbox that I'd like to show/hide an input text element. When the checkbox is checked, the textbox disappears. When the checkbox is unchecked, the textbox reappears.This works fine in firefox:
I've been using this little bit of code to show a div when the user rolls over a link: $('a#eventspopupbtn').mouseover(function() {$('#menu').hide('fast'); $('#eventspopup').show('fast'); return false; }); I have been trying to extend this bit of code so that there is a short delay built inso that if the user rolls over the link by mistake or 'just passing through' the div is not displayed. I tried using setTimeout but couldn't get that working (unfortunately, I can't share that with you because I lost the code).
I'm new to jquery, and to javascript in fact. I'm trying to find some way to find out when an element (by its Id, class or element type) has been loaded. What I have is the following: I have a report in a table, and the records are paginated so that only a few (say 10) are shown each time. When I press "next page" only the table is reloaded instead of the whole page.
The thing is, some of the table cells have a datepicker, but I only manage to show the datepicker in the first page (because it is the only time when the whole page is loaded and I add the datepicker on document.ready). So, I guess what I'm looking for is something like $("table").ready(function... . I have found an "elementReady" plugin, but what it does is triggering an event when a given element is ready (which is what I want) only when the full DOM is loading (which is not what I want).
I'm using the following code to attach a method to the click event of my button. It definitely works, but unfortunately the click event happens on page load even though no one has actually clicked on the button. How do I prevent this? $('#btn').bind('click',etCategories());
I want an event to be triggered when I use left and right arrow buttons like this: Code: $(document).keypress(function(e){ if (e.keyCode == 39 && key_pressOK) { e.preventDefault(); $("#next").trigger('click'); key_pressOK = 0; }}); This works on firefox, but not chrome, haven't even bothered checking the other browsers since it didn't even work on chrome.
I have a page with a form, that represent questions and the corresponding answers.I defined the minimum questions, answers, and their maximum.So I added a link in the form to add question (along with the minimum amount of answers), and a link per question to add an answer in it.the "click" event for my links is like:
the code look more like JS, but basically it.adds the html code in the corresponding divs.The problem is the following: if I add a question, it also add a link to add answers to this question, but this link does not fire the event.Did I miss something to add to make it work?I mean the link in html page is exactly the same, I even tried not changing the part with the int, it still doesn't work.
$(document).ready(function(){ //when a link inside our thumbba div is clicked $('#thumbb a').click(function(event){ //prevent the default behavior(going to the page)
[Code]....
to swap out content from a hidden div (swap-b) into the visible div (swap-a) - this works great, however, I have 12 of these "hidden" divs on the page, and I want each one to behave independently. Currently, when I click the swap button for one div, it activates all the others. I get that this is because all the divs have the same IDs, and that the function is telling all the divs to behave the same, however, I don't see how I'm supposed to apply this function to each div independently. I've tried using a "this" function to make it work, however that just breaks the function.
i am working on a custom drop down list that has hidden #options DIV which is shown when the user clicks on a button. the problem i am having is that the click event does not seem to be attached to the LI elements since they are hidden when the page first loads. if i show the #options DIV when the page loads everything is working as expected.i've tried to attach the click event after i show the hidden UL but that didn't work either.what can i do to make sure the LI click event fires? i tried to put A tag inside of LI and attach click to that but to no avail.
I have just added a jQuery fade plugin onto a page to automatically cycle through images in an unordered list without a click event. It works well but when I preview the page with JS disabled all images become visible and it messes up the layout. What I need is a method that works when JS is disabled. I have seen methods where the {display:none} CSS styles are applied then changed via JS but can't figure this out. If anyone can either recommend a decent plugin with provisions for JS disabled browsers
How can I capture the event when I click with the cursor anywhere in the page (that is, on a component or elsewhere). This event would occure in an I.E 5.5 or later browser.
I would like to create a plugin that I can put before a click event on a button. The click event should occur if the user's time on the page hasn't expired. The plugin should check the user's time, and then stop the click event if the time has expired. With the plugin, I'm essentially putting two click events on the same button, as I need to check the expiration when the button is clicked. The plugin is working on my test page, but I'm afraid that this is contingent on an arbitrary ordering of the click events by jQuery. If I have my click event chained after my plugin, can I be assured that the plugin would always stop the click event if the time is expired? Or could jQuery execute the click event before the time gets checked?
Page "A" has a function that pops up Page "B". When something is done on Page "B", I'd like Page "A" to reload.
Very much like here at DevShed when you click in the "Rep" button, a small pop-up opens, and when you finish giving whomever maximum positive rep, the original page reloads.
How can I give a click on a link when it is just created and added to DOM?
None of this works: function openProfilePage(profile){ $('#profile-link').remove(); var link = $('<a/>').attr({'href':'profile.php?user='+profile, 'target':'_blank', 'id':'profile-link'}).css({'top':'-200px','left':'-300px', 'position':'absolute'}).html(profile);
Im trying to have a click event that replaces an image on the page with a new image that has been selected randomly from an array. I have solved PART of this already (can get the random image to appear).
However, instead of appearing on the page where the old image was, the new image appears in a blank page.
My research indicates that this blank page location-problem is a result of using document.write in the Function. Therefore, I know I need to find a different way to accomplish this, but am failing miserably.
I have been trying for hours and hours and HOURS to figure out proper syntax for accomplishing this via elements, functions, variables and mootools.
A bit of my research:
-I found this---but havent figured out how to implement it in my scenario:
Source: [url]
-I found this---but havent figured out how to implement it in my scenario:
I'm wondering if there is a way to identify the "current" tag or the tag within which an event is triggered as a reference point in a javascript function.
Thus, can I set up a function so that when a certain tag is clicked it will do something to, say, the child of the tag that was clicked?
The function would say "do something to the child of the tag that triggered the event by being clicked."
I know I can do this by identifying the tag by ID, class or some DOM location. What I want to know is if I can can identify it by the fact that it is where the event was triggered.
