JQuery :: $(document).keydown Event Handler Not Getting Triggered The First Time?
May 25, 2010
So I have an event handler for the KeyDown event in a Javascript file but for some reason it does not get called the first time a key is pressed. However, if a key is pressed or a mouse button clicked then the next time I press a key it does get called. Here is the relevant code:
...........................
// Other stuff
$(function()
I've a very simple code where i am setting the font-size to currect font-size + 2 for a paragraph. Its set first time but when next time event handler is called it gets the same old value.code is ...

When I open page2.html, and click on the brnClick link, it changes the content of divclick. If I open page1.html, and then navigate to page2.html, click on the link does not work.
I'm trying to get a keydown function to trigger an event... The same as the onclick event I currently have working. I got the buttons to work on keydown, but I cant get them to work just like the onclick. Trying to get them to do the same thing.
JQuery - Event triggered by div position Is it possible to use JQuery to trigger an event from the position of a div in relation to the browser window. I have this demo pageHEREthat contains three div's positioned below each other.
When I scroll down the page I want an alert to say "Div one in view", "Div two in view" etc. I know more than one div could be visible in the browser window but I wanted it to alert the one in the centre of the window. I was thinking it would be best to fire an event when the div is a set distance from the top of the browser window - I don't know where to start with it, or if using the distance from the top of the browser is the best way.
i have a link that onclick calls function printSection<a class='print' href='javascript:printSection();'>Print</a>i want to find out which link isit so i can get the parent, and dowhatever i need to
I have a code for the keydown event: -when you press the UpArrow key the image moves up -when you press the DownArrow key the image moves down.....and so on But don't forget that this is under the keydown event...so when I keep pressing the UpArrow key the image moves up but when I release the key the image still moves up. I already put the code $('myImage').stop(); on my image on keyup event but this doesn't do anything. There is a code to clear my memory from pressed keys or something?
When I upgraded to jQuery 1.7.1 (from 1.5.x), I found that an exception was suddenly thrown on every keydown event on an INPUT type="text". I still get the exception when I remove my change and keyup events. Previously I bound to these elements with .live, but I have the same issue with the new .on, so I don't think this problem is even related to my bindings.
The exception is as follows (from the custom WebKit frame where my script runs):
This occurs on line 3255 of jquery-dev-1.7.1.js, which reads:
I did some poking around and found that handleObj.origType is "keydown". There is no jQuery.event.special["keydown"] defined, meaning that the first part of the expression evaluates to undefined (there is no such thing as {}.handle). The second part of the expression, handleObj.handler, evaluates to true. The entire expression therefore evaluates to true, which can't be applied as a function.
I'm trying to change the value of an input field (target) which depends on another input (source). It works well when I manually change the source value. But if I changed the source value with another button, the target value remains the same.
Here's the code...
$(document).ready(function() { $('input#change').click(function() { $('input#source').attr('value', 'This is the value changed by a button');
[Code].....
So how could the target input detect if there's a change within the source input without manually changing it's value?
I am trying to make an animation on website spiderspun .co .uk (spaces added to avoid being called a link builder )
I have two div: #sidebar1-menu ul{position:relative;background-image:url("../spiderisms.png"); background-position:525px 110px;background-repeat:no-repeat;}
I am trying to use the jquery keydown event.I wan to fade in a div that is a form then when the user presses keycode 17 meaning control key this div and form will fade in at the center of the screen.here is the code I have:
This is in a php file and echoing the code. So the " " ignore it it's just saying to php that those are to be echoed as " " This code isn't working. I would press control key but no fade in occurs. I include this php file to all my websites webpages which are php files.
I have a parent element that registered to the keydown event.somewhere down the hierarchy I have a table and some buttons. It appears that after I press the buttons, I only get the keydown event in the parent after 3 key strokes.I put breakpoints and the event is simply not called.I'm guessing this is a focus issue, but couldn't make it work.
I am trying to handle keystrokes on a text input element, in the keydown event. I need to know what character is about to be inserted into the string. I am able to get it for almost all letters, numbers and symbols using a combination of event.shiftKey, event.charCode, and String.fromCharCode() and some hard-coded lookup tables. (i'm aware that this is probably not going to work on non-standard/non-american keyboard layouts)
Unfortunately I can't get the character for a few: question mark, angle brackets, underbar, colon, and a few others. They all have charCode of zero, and nothing else in the event indicates which is which. Other than waiting till the element's value has changed (i.e. the keyup or keypress event), what can I do to tell which key is pressed?
I have been trying to archieve the following with no luck.
- We have a Java Applet that handles fileuploads
- Once the applet finished uploading the files to server, onUploadFinish() is triggered
onUploadFinish() function contains the following
Code:
As highlighted in the above code, I am unable to submit the form automatically. I am certain that onUploadFinish() is triggered because all other statements in onUploadFinish() kicks in and the whole thing works like a charm apart from submission. Is there a rule that forms cannot be submitted this way?
I am using Lightbox+ and overall it's very good for my needs. However it has a small problem. If you goto [URL] and click on the image "Sample 2" then use the next arrow to go to "Sample 3" you have to hover off the image and then back on to get the previous and zoom icons to show again. I have been able to make the bug occur every time in both Firefox 3.6 and IE6. I am guessing the mouseover event isn't triggering correctly due to the image object moving underneath the mouse pointer but I just can't fix it.
when I call my "moveObject" function by an onMouseUp event handler like this:
<script> document.onmouseup = function (e) { moveObject(e,testTable); }; </script> everything works fine. But I would like to call that function not by clicking anywhere in the document, but by clicking on a table clell. I used this:
I'm trying to create an internal web app to work with Opera Mobile (in this case I am able to restrict the user base to just one browser, so not too worried about other cross browser issues). I need to be able to capture when the user hits the Enter key in a form field. I was intending just to use the standard Javascript event.keycode/which == 13 method. The issue I am having is that hitting the Enter key doesn't seem to trigger as a keypress, keydown, keyup event.My guess is it has something to do with the keypad that automatically pops up. I'm happy for any work around here, whether it is able to be done in Opera Mobile settings or by doing something different/firing a different event in Javascript.Example code:
I've many div with sequence of ids like d1 d2 d3 ... and I need to listen to their click event so I'm using a loop to add an event handler to them, Here it's my code:
for(var i = 0; i < $ds.length; i++){ var $d = $ds[i]; var xFunc = function(e){ document.title = "d: "+$d;
[Code]....
But when I click on each of them always the title goes to "d: 4" where 4 is the last value in $ds.
I'm creating a drop down menu so that when a user clicks on the drop down arrow and then hovers over one of the options, a bubble comes up and does a validation. The thing is that everything works fine in Firefox, but not in IE or Chrome. The problem is that the .mouseover() function doesn't work on the <option> tags in IE and Chrome, but it works fine in Firefox because apparently FF is the only browser that supports it.
