JQuery :: Unable To Do More Than One Thing With Datepicker?
Feb 17, 2011
it seems like an amazing tool once I figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm using the awesome datePicker plugin, but am just not getting something right. I can't seem to be able to get datepicker to do more than one thing.To help myself figure out what Im doing wrong, I created a very simple example:
I'm trying to give a style to my datepicker but I don't achieve to add color to some days, I've only achieved to make the border color. What should I put on my css so that all the day appear with a color and not only the border? I've tried with background and background-color.
I have a big dropdown box with lots of items in it. It takes about 5 seconds to load in IE6. How can I use jQuery to load rest of the page, and then load the dropdown last? Right now, the dropdown load freezes the entire page until it loads.
When dialog pops up and when I want to select date from datepicker but clicking on input datepicker is under dialog. What option make it to be on top ?
basically i have this menu system which works using a couple of jquery scripts it all works fine etc, but now i am porting my site into a joomla design ( dont ask why just a challange )at the moment i have a module on the left which has my menu in and on the right is another module which loads the content depending on the outcome of the script:at the moment what ihave done is not the finished product as i would like to make sure that this will work before moving to the next part of my scriptbefore i go on and on and on ill show you what i have:
how to use the autocomplete jQuery plugin best to my needs. I'm looking to replace a select box with the Autocomplete plugin, but not quite sure how to accomplish this. In my select box, I have the option that is displayed is not the same as the data that is submitted. ex: <option value="123">This is Displayed </option> However, with the autocomplete, since it is using a textbox, the values that are displayed, are submitted. Do I have to hack around using hidden fields to accomplish this type of behaviour?
I have read all the reason why DOM purists don't like document.write and innerHTML. I would like to be a good programmer and do the right thing and not use them. But I need your help to get it to what the project needs done.
In the interest of brevity, the following code has been simplified. You'll notice sDoc contains HTML and JavaScript, this is a unchangeable requirement. PLEASE don't waste your time or mine by explaining how un-couth it is. I know it is but there's nothing I can do about. Answers strictly focused what can be done versus what should be done will be greatly appreciated.
There are three attempted methods to render the sDoc. The first one is to create a textNode and append it to a div. It prints the code as text instead of rendering it, as expected. Is it possible to get it to render?
The second method uses innerHTML and the HTML is rendered but not the JavasScript.
The third method uses document.write which renders both the HTML and JavaScript, but we really really don't want to use the write method, but at this point it looks like we have no choice.
We've even tried to render sDoc in a DOM created iFrame, but it chokes in Mozilla browsers because of the known bug of included scripts that use document.write (once again another requirement that can't be changed) kills the page as document.close fails.
Under PHP control, I am loading an <img> tag with one thing or another. I'm trying to work my way towards not changing the actual tag beyond what is already there (don't mess with the HTML).
The HTML is:
Code:
I am switching the image src path to something totally different. A such, I need to have the browser remove the alt and title attributes. I do this by loading the following in the {SRC} placeholder:
Code:
Using FF2.0.0.20, View Generated Output, I see that these attributes are indeed gone. Yet, the browser still shows (definitely) the alt attribute and (probably) the other attributes as well. I have also confirmed this happens with FF4.0.1-Portable.
I have set up a disclaimer page for our public access PCs at our Libraries which has the following function:
function breach() { alert("Proceeding beyond these Conditions is..................... If you have read the Conditions, scroll to the bottom and press the 'Yes I
agree' button.") window.location="disclaim.htm"
and then in the body tag I have onunload=breach() This works fine for all websites entered into the address bar except if
you enter www.google.com
What it is supposed to do is bring up the prompt and when you click on the OK button it will go back to the disclaimer page. They should only be able to get to the web by clicking on the 'Yes I agree' button at the bottom of the disclaimer page. Does anyone out there know why google doesn't fire up the disclaim.htm page like all the other sites? It is very frustrating.
So I am working on a project to take an integer that the user gives, and then get all the squares and cubes of all the numbers before that to the number given. It displays it in a text area. Maybe I am just lost for the moment, but It just prints the number that I give with the square root and cube instead of starting from 1, and ended on the integer I give.
If you've seen from my previous posts in this forum, you may have noticed that i'm a newbie when it comes to javascript, anyway. I'm trying to create an array sort of thing to convert the country name's to continent, and set it as a cookie. I spent all that time writing a PHP script for this same thing only to find out that my webhost does not have the maxmind apache module. I also don't know how to get the value of the country from a javascript function.
PHP Code: function country_to_continent( $country ){$continent = '';if( $country== 'AF' ) $continent ='AS'; --CUT OFF DUE TO TEXT LIMIT, FIND THE FULL CODE HERE: http://infinitymedia.pastebin.com/7WWDeyVT return $continent;}
So I have a nice little hand rolled Ajax call to my server pulling a list from the database and displaying it in a drop down list dependant on the user input. Aka Google suggest. I am wondering if the quickest way to do this is to call the database each time with Ajax and search the results with the input, or to write an xml from the database and search that. Then when the Database is updated rewrite the xml file.
Am I underestimating MYSQL again? Or not, and I feel it would be good practice to write the xml file because it will essentially mean a lot less database calls. But I don�t know how fast searching an xml file would be in comparison to a db call. The results from the database are say 500 entries anywhere between 10 - 100 characters each. I want to know A. The best way to do this B. Lets say the site will have pretty high traffic so I am looking for it to be as tweeked as possible. I can test but thought at the end of my week it was worth seeing what peoples advice is.
I have been trying to figure this out for a while, and I cant manage to get it working. I have a table for instance the one below: <tr> <td><input type='text' id='test_value[]' .... /></td> <td><input type='text' id='test_value2[]' .... /></td> <td><input type='text' id='date[]' onclick ="testfunc(this);" .... /></td> </tr>
Within my function I can grab the index of the onclick no problem, but when I select the date from the date picker, it always select the first column. testfunc(val) val.parentNode.parentNode.rowIndex I am using clone to create multiple instances of a row, but how can I use non-unique id (date[]) which all my X rows have the same name, to unique enter the datepicker value.
I'm using the jQuery UI datepicker and it's absolutely brilliant. But is there a way to attach it to my own button?
[Code]...
And it generates a button with calendar.gif next to the input, which is almost fine.But I'd like to set up my own <img tag to go next to the input to trigger the datepicker. I want my own button so I can set my own style options on it (cursor and vertical align).
I am using jQuery for the first time, I think I have everything setup correctly and I have two datepickers on my page that appear to be functioning correctly and displaying the appropriate dates, but when I attempt to get the values (text) of the textboxestheyare always null even thought the correct dates show in the controls onthe page. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to include my code?
hope someone can help me out here I am trying to get the kevin luck datepicker (if you google, it's at the top off the list) too work I have made simple php test page the js sourcefiles are in the same folder as the page
I am using the calendar for a florist who offer delivery next day until 4pm so for example:
Say it's tuesday at 3pm, flowers can be delivered fine the next day (wednesday). However at 4.00pm on tuesday the flowers cannot be delivered the next day as it's too late so thursday would be the next delivery time.
I have a problem with jQ UI datepicker in IE6, it's positioned just fine, generate the image fine and shows the calendar perfect. But can't pick the date, nothing happens on click, the date isn't showed in input field nor highlighted on the calendar.
The code I'm using is: $(document).ready(function(){ $("#depart").datepicker({buttonImage: 'images/calendar.gif', buttonImageOnly: true, constrainInput: true, dateFormat: 'dd/mm/y', duration: 'fast', firstDay: 1, maxDate: '+5Y', minDate: '-0D', showButtonPanel: false, showOn: 'both'});
I am currently working on a data input website and have a form which is excel style in layout with 10 rows to input the same fields 10 times. I can get the datepicker in each field but when selected it only populates the first field. I know I must put some sort of value or something in the datepicker class but not sure how it works. Any help on this would be great I have attached the code below:
