JQuery :: Use CSS Selectors That Are Not Defined In A Stylesheet?
Jun 8, 2010
Is it common to use CSS selectors that are not defined in a stylesheet (or anywhere else) to identify HTML elements? When using jQuery in ASP.Net with controls that implement INamingContainer, all it's children's ID's are automatically generated based on the id of the child control and the id of the container control (such as the Panel control) so we couldn't simply use $("#myChildControl") for a child control with the id of 'myChildControl'. The resulting client id would be something like 'mypanel_mychildcontrol' and for autogenerated controls within grids/tables, the id's get even more complicated and should be 'guessed'. So, how does/would people identify these types of controls when there are no preset CSS selector's for them?
On the server side, we can use the ClientID to get the generated ID, but for some things, I just want to do this totally on the client side without messing with code-behind.
I've got some text that I want to change what it says:(63%) on RRP (£80.00) The percentage value and RRP Price will change dependant on the product and its discount. All I want to change with jquery is the text:
I have a global stylesheet. In that stylesheet I have:
I need to turn off the top:-9px, because IE7 renders my menu wrong with it there. I have a stylesheet for IE that overrides global which I set to: .index .left #search_accordion .flyout {position: absolute; top: 0px;} or .index .left #search_accordion .flyout {position: absolute;}.
When I make top:0px, I get the wrong positioning. When I leave don't include the selector "top" then the browser pulls the value from the global stylesheet (top:-9px). The solution is I need take "top" out completely.
I was reading various articles on browser detection with javascript and I know it can be unreliable and unprofessional at times, but I was just playing it to see if I could get something working. What I wanted to do was attach a stylesheet if the browser in safari. With what I remember from the articles I read, isn't there a function that is navigator.appName(); ? I have written it in sorta of pseudo-code below:
I know that there is a .html() jQuery function where I can write html in the head of the document like so, head.html (HTML GOES HERE); but I have heard and form experience that mixing javascript and jQuery function can be dangerous. I would detect if the browser is safari and then link a stylesheet if true?
Dynamically loaded content (via JQuery's get method, for instance) seems unable to connect to a stylesheet that resides on the main page. I understand this is due to the fact that the dynamic content is not part of the DOM.
I have a wordpress website with which I wish to provide content via an iframe on facebook.. Without using a wordpress plugin, I would like to know if I provide a function in jquery that basically says if viewport is equal to 520px then either load this css file or add this body class.. Also, if viewport is = to 520px then hide this element.. I think this can be done but after a lot of searching, I cannot seem to find a definative answer..
I know it's something stupid I'm doing but I can't figure it out. Essentially I'm trying to load two objects with URLs with two websites that can be loaded(displayed) and unloaded(hidden) at the click of a button.
I've spent an hour trying to debug this and I'm at my whits end! I'm doing this with changing the width and height of the divs that contain the objects that will load the websites. But, in Firefox I get an error in the error console saying : loadUnload is not defined. why? code...
Writing a sortable list function. My <li> elements contain several items (headings, paragraphs etc) and I want to add a class to the headings when they've been sorted. I have this code in my sortable init:
I found that certain selectors work in all browsers except IE 8 and they need to modified. This selector pattern seem to work well in all browsers, including IE 8: jQuery("input[class='class_name'][type='text']") But this identical selector works in Firefox, Safari but not in IE 8: jQuery("input.class_name:text") In IE 8 it returns a "property not found" javascript runtime error. I don't know whether that the actual issue or if it is a side effect of some memory leak.
I'm trying to test if certain radio buttons are selected, but the name varies. My boss is considering changing the names to further isolate them breaking the script as it works now. I'm trying to figure out how to test the new case just like it works now. Here's a link to my pastebin
While trying to get a selector to work with ids that include square brackets, I searched the forum and found that I needed to escape the brackets with '\'. However, while this works with my fiddle: can't get the exact same selector to work within my page in either FF or Safari. I've triple-checked the id and it is correct; I know that jQuery is working on the page because changing the selector to$('.nameinput') gives the expected results. can't change the id because I'm working within an existing application; I know I could add a class to the input and use that as the selector instead. I'd prefer not to and would just like to figure out why this isn't working.
Is there a way to combine selectors with && condition. eg: $('.classname div[att=value]') Requirement is to select all div elements with class 'classname' and (&&)an attribute 'att' whose value is 'value'
What I'm trying to do is quite simple but as a beginner I'm getting incredibly frustrated with it. Here's my first attempt. I plan to do something a bit more fancy with the images, but I could see straight away that this wasn't the solution. Mouseover was changing the image before it had faded out and looked horrible. So, I thought I might put all the images in the same place and hide them, making them visible and bringing them to the front on mouseover of the corresponding hotspot.
My button when click call cal function, inside cal function I need to find parent so I can access other element, but I donot know how to pass parameter to Selectors/has(for some reason $("div :button").each(function()... no work here)
Code as below: function cal(event) { if (!event) event = window.event;
I'm trying to do is simple "select all" checkbox script. The problem is, no matter what I seem to do, only first element is matched. $("input:checkbox").attr("checked", true); checks the first box only. Same with: $("input:checkbox").each(... I even tried copying this script directly from the jQuery documentation page: $("div").css("border","9px solid red"); It applies a red border to the first div on my page.. the example in the documentation applies it to all divs.
Ok, this seems easy, but I am struggling. I have this...
$("a[href$='mp4']").click(function () { But I want it to work for mp4 or mov or more. Something like... $("a[href$='mp4'||href$='mov']").click(function () { <-- which doesn't work apparently
I am working on a customised scoresheet for a Bible Quiz group. Basically, I want to click on a box and have a box come up with options for correct and incorrect. I just want it to affect the score for that one box. However, if you click another box, it changes all of the boxes.[URL]..Click the 10, 20, or 30 in the top left corner. It should update the points under the 4. Click on any of the boxes assigned to a person on the grey line. A box should come up with a Cor (Correct) or Incor link. Click on either option. Then click on another grey box and do the same thing. I don't want all of the points to change when one person's score changes. Does that make sense?
