JQuery :: Click Events From <a>s Inserted In A .html() Call?
Oct 17, 2010
I'm using some click events on normal <a> tags. When I rewrite the links within a html() method call, the click events no longer work. I've set up a very simple example here:When the page is loaded, clicking either of the 'link 2' links displays the correct information.When 'link 1' is then clicked, the main information is redisplayed. However, now, the 'link 2' link in the main paragraph doesn't work, although the 'link 2' link in the menu does.
I've used to an AJAX call to load a HTML table into div. This is working successfully. I know want to use a click event on buttons located within the inserted table.
The click event is triggering on buttons outside the inserted table but not on the buttons within the table.
Do I need to call some sort of refresh function to so that jQuery is able to pick up these events?
I have a problem with jQuery appending new text to a div - but then not firing events attached to the inserted text.Let me explain. I have a div that contains a number of divs - the div has a link and a hidden form. Clicking on the link fires a slideToggle event which reveals the form.When you submit the form AJAX handles it and jQuery builds another div with the correct link and the correct form which it sticks on the end of the list. That all works fine and dandy.What I want to be able to do is to click on the newly-added link and have it behave in the same way as the other elements that were on the page when it was built. However, nothing happens when you click on it. Zip. Nadda. Rien du tout.Usually I have found a way round the problem - but I am slightly stuck on my current project. Apart from forcing a page reload, is there any way to get the browser to see the newly inserted link and apply the jQuery action to it?
I have a page that inserts a div after another div on my page. Basically this div and its content are generated by the server and outputted via Ajax when the user clicks a button.I have something like:
//Listener function $("div").click( function () { alert("thing"); });
Clicking any of the divs that were loaded on the page will give this alert however, clicking on this div that was inserted after the user clicks a button does not respond to this listener. I put my rendered html into the w3c validator and my page has no errors (because I thought that maybe I had a missing end tag which would cause jquery to not work).
Using $.get() and insertBefore() work great for what I'm doing. But, the data I insert does not respond to events that I have set up. I'm notsurprised by this. I'm sure there is something extra I need to do. But, what is that?
when i click on a <a> tag with class poplight this works fine. But when i add another anchor tag dynamically to my page (without a page reload, via ajax) like below...
and if i click on that anchor tag that was no placed on top of my first row it does not call the click event instead i can see the variables i tried passing through that anchor tag on my url.
any clue why this is happening.... i donot get any errors as well on firebug.
I need to get text data from a web page which are unfortenately inserted into <span> tag by jQuery so it's not actually involved in HTML source file. That means for me I can't get it by classic HTTPRequest (programmatically).
For example, on this page: [URL]
When you enter some text in the textbox, this text will show up under it. But when you open HTML source or download it using HTTPRequest (I do so in C# language but it shouldn't matter), the source won't contain entered text. And this text is what I'm trying get to.
I am building a custom shirt design app which uses an Ajax form to allow a user to upload an image, and once it is uploaded it is automatically placed in the next empty <li> in their little gallery... once it is in the gallery they can click on it and insert it into their shirt design. It's all done with Ajax so they never leave the page.
Here's the code that inserts the image into the page once it is uploaded: (this works perfect)
The problem is that if I click on one of the first five, it works, the image gets inserted into the shirt design. But if I click on that last one, which now has the image I uploaded in it, it doesn't get inserted into the shirt design. Is there a reason why?
The above is a simplified example of the problem I'm facing. I could merge functions into one big self-referencing function (i.e. recursive function), but that's ugly and causes other problems (such as when insert form elements and wanting to harvest the user input afterwards). I considered declaring a variable in the top ".ready" function, and have all child functions stuff their HTML changes in it, but that seems to be a pain to keep track of and removes much of the value of using jQuery in the first place...
Is there a nice solution for this? To, after inserting HTML, somehow update the HTML state referred to by jQuery in the non-local scope(s)?
Why isn't this code working? I can add items but only remove the ones originally added in the source code, not the ones dynamically added. <form><div class="list"> <div class="item"> <input type="text" value="" /> <a href=""class="removeitem">Remove this item</a> </div><div class="item"> <input type="text" value="" /> <a href="" class="removeitem">Remove this item</a> </div><a href="" class="additem">Add item to list</a> </div></form> <script type="text/javascript"> // Add item to list $('.additem').click(function(){ var template = $($(this).prev().get(0)).clone(); template.insertBefore($(this)); return false; }); // Remove item from list $('.removeitem').click(function(){ $(this).prev().parent().remove(); return false; }); </script>
A simple one that is fooling me too much.The following function is returning a numeric value. I want to insert this value in html code. How can I do that?
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function myFun() {
I continue to read "jQuery In Action" and one doubt came into my mind when I was reviewing the chapter 4 that talks about Event handlers.Within a particular code sample (bamboo.html), the author has written a ".change(fn...)" method with a function to handle the event that manipulates the changes made within an "input[type=text]" to reflex the price to pay against the amount of product the client selects , and, at the end of the same wrapped set, it's included a call to the "change()" method again (see the code below).My question is, when is it necessary to call the event handler (e.g. ".change()") more then one time within the same wrapped set?
I have a list with entries, which can be removed, by clicking on a delete icon. That triggers a jQuery event, resulting in an ajax call to delete the clicked record. The new list is reloaded in the div, but the delete icons no longer trigger jQuery events.
I am missing something, probably re-enabling the event handlers
Some background:I'm writing an iPhone web app that connects to a C# web server. When the user selects a particular button:- a post is made to the web server- the web server sends back html buttons.- the web app places the buttons in a #result <div> (using ("#result").html( content_received ); )The above works really well. The buttons are formated and displayed correctly. However, the buttons are not selectable. I have another JQuery command that will catch the button press and send a new query back to the web server.
I've looked at the html source, once the page has loaded, and even though the buttons are displayed, they are not reflected in the source. You only see <div id="result"></div> and no reference to the buttons. Now I'm guessing this why the buttons are not working.
I tried to use delegate, but it is bounded with events. I don't really want to execute a function on a standard event. But I would need to change the elements that match a selector, when they appear in dom. Is possible to "unhook" delegate from events?like for all existing and new elements with class ".red" to add to the "data" a new key "initiated:true".
I am fairly new to JQuery and have been asked by my manager to implement the flip plugin into one of our on-line courses.I have got the 'flip' code working fine, and have a number of tiles that get flipped (like this).My question is, how do I know when a user has flipped each of the tiles? I can't just do a count as they could click on one tile multiple times.
I want to get all the click events attached to a webpage..or in simple language how to find, if an element contains click event??<span onclick="http://www.google.com">google</span>if a page contains element like this i can easily get like this
I'd like to have a hyperlink on a page, that when clicked reveals some hidden text below the hyperlink AND at the same time opens a new browser window to a specified URL (which would have been declared in the HTML code NOT the jQuery bind code). There will be several of these 'Click here to reveal password and open site' hyperlinks on the page. Will this scenario cause a problem in the sense that if you click on one hyperlink then all of the reveals would be triggered and numerous windows would be opened?
would just like to set some "click" function on specific LI element in menu. As you can see, every LI level has it's own class. I specify a .live() function ( because I'm dealing with .ajax and append() ) if maybe this is a problem ? Clicking on a child element you can see that the .click() function is called even the class is diferent,
I'm relatively new to JQuery and am having troubles trying to get two functions to work together. I have a pagination function and a modal dialog function. Each one is triggered by different anchor tags. My troubles happen whenever one function is triggered, the other function can not be triggered anymore. If I trigger the modal dialog, the pagination function can't be triggered, and when the pagination is triggered first, the modal dialog no longer triggers. I've tried to use .die() and .unbind() on the click events for the opposing function. That seems to work only once. then the opposing function can no longer be triggered. I think I am on the right path, just need to have some guidance on where I'm going wrong.
I have an div element (lets call it div number 1) that I have attached a click event to using jquery.bind() method. That works fine. I then have another div element (div number 2) that is absolute positioned on top of div 1. Now div number 2 also has a click event binded to it, which works... the problem is when I click div 2 and the click event triggers, so does the click event from div 1... I don't want the click event from div 1 to fire.
I've tried searching for this under the forums — and maybe it's because I just am using the wrong terms — but I cannot find any answers around this. Here's the skinny:
I've got a listener for click events from links in DIV #1 in the loaded document, and when a user clicks on one of those links, it passes a value to a .get() function and runs a simple AJAX call and dumps the data/html results into DIV #2.
After that click event, DIV #2 has a bunch of links in it, and I'm trying to traverse that dynamically assembled list and perform another .get() function based upon whatever link they click in DIV #2.
Based on the parameter passed from the link in the dynamically assembled DIV #2 box, it would run the .get() function and fill DIV #3 with the data/html results from that second AJAX call. The problem is that I can't seem to detect any sort of click event from the contents of DIV #2 aside from clicking on DIV #2 itself. I've tried the usual .children() to try and traverse down to where the inserted links would be, but that's not working (e.g.: $("#div2").children("a").click(); ). I've also tried .find(), filter() and .has() but it doesn't respond, as if there was nothing there.
I have a feeling it's something simple that I'm missing here; but I've no clue what I'm doing wrong. It seems that you should be able to traverse the DOM, even when you're essentially building it dynamically based upon a user's selection or an event within the DOM.
what I should be using to use to detect click() events from dynamically assembled elements? I know exactly what DIV they'll be sent to, I just can't seem to traverse anything with them when I'm dynamically inserting HTML into them.
