Keeping Selected Link Selected After Lost Focus

Apr 12, 2005

This is irritating cause i read a arcticle with a solution to this in one of the many newsletters i receive, but then i didn't need it and now i do i can't find it, and i'm searching for days now .

I have say 3 links

link1 --- link2 --- link3

all of then formatted nicelly with CSS. When i select one of then, say link1, it becames with a diferent background color.

What i want is to keep tha backg color even when the user clicks anywhere on the page (thus loosing focus) and until another link is clicked.

I tought this could be possible in a CSS only way, but now i think i have to use some Javascript.

Jquery :: Link Focus Lost In FF 3.5.5 When Following Link And Hitting Backspace Key?

Nov 10, 2009

I'm using Firefox 3.5.5 on Vista 32 Home Premium SP2 and only recently noticed that (javascript/jquery being enabled) link focus is lost when you tab through a page, follow the link to another page and then hit the backspace key to come back. Tab navigation continues at top of page, not with the next link after the one in focus before.

No problems in this respect with IE8 and Opera. As soon as you disable javascript with noscript, the problem disappears and link focus stays, so that tabbing brings on the next link instead of starting on top of page again.

Just confirmed it on jquery/com (following navigation link to Plugins and hitting backspace) and on learningjquery/com (navigation links). A Google search didn't yield any answers nor even any similar reports on this particular problem.

It's even more irksome in my particular case, since I have just implemented a stylesheet switcher in order to enhance certain accessibility aspects, but ironically this particular bug leads to a loss of accessibility.

Does anybody know what might be the reason (version 1.3.2.min related?, cookies related?, etc.) for this and how to solve it?

JQuery :: Keeping A Specific Tab Selected After Page Refresh Or Redirect?

May 4, 2011

I am currently using:

$("ul.tabs li:first").addClass("active").show();
$(".tab_content:first").show();
$("ul.tabs li").click(function() {
$("ul.tabs li").removeClass("active");

There are 2 options I could use but I don't know how to do it.

1. Using a get parameter to select the tab

2. Using the cookie plugin (not sure how that works)

Selected Checkbox Has No Focus To Switch Screens?

Jun 19, 2007

I have a checkbox that shows different screens when each checkbox is selected. So when a checkbox get focus or is checked I want the screen on the right side to change. The problem is that when I override the focus then the click won't go through. Meaning that right now no checkbox has no focus, so when I click a checkbox the right screen changes, but the checkbox does not get a check so we have to click it again. What can I do to switch the screens on focus and process clicks correctly?

Creating Clickable Link On Selected Text

Jul 14, 2009

Any way to select a portion of text and convert it to a clickable link? I have seen examples, where the selected text is wrapped in <a> tags, however, I have yet to see an example of having the link actually be clickable. The other issue appears to be with the document.selection property that Firefox seems to not support. So a cross-browser solution would be ideal. I intend to use this with a custom toolbar/button in FCKEditor. The toolbar is in place, we just need to resolve the selected text - clickable link issue.

Automatically Close The Window When The Focus Is Lost From The Page

Jan 11, 2011

Ok so I have a site that I want to automatically close the window when the focus is lost from the page. For example, if the user clicks off the page to something else on there desktop I want the page to close. So far I have managed to do this but the grids on my page and the scroll bars all trigger the close function when clicked on. Is there anyway to make the scroll bars and drop down boxes not trigger the function?

This is the line of code that I have.

Show / Hide Div Layer / Change Link Color / When Radio Button Is Selected

Aug 16, 2010

I am trying to develop an exam system.Find my code below.I request you to copy the code and save it as an html file .I have 2 problems:

1. Kindly notice that when the quiz is loaded,it shows both the questions by default.I want only question 1 to be visible when the quiz loads.What happens presently is that ,both questions are visible even after I click on the link
Q.1( referring to question 1).However,when I click on
Q. 2,then only question 2 can be seen and then(after clicking on Q.2) if I click on Q.1,then only question 1 can be seen

What I want is that when the page loads only question 1 is visible.Then when I click on Q.2,I can see only question 2 and when I click on Q.1, I can see only question 1.I later plan on adding many questions,so it should be a general solution rather than a solution good only for 2 questions.

2.Also,what I want is that,if someone selects any of the answers of a particular question,it's link color should turn green to indicate to the user that he answered that question.So for,instance,if I select an answer to the first question(select one of London,New York,Seattle,Washington,Chicago), the link Q.1 should turn green.

JQuery :: Using GET Data To Decide Where To Put Selected="selected"?

Nov 28, 2011

I need some jQuery code to get the data from the URL (example.com/?areaCode=1234) and then use it to add selected="selected" to the correct option from this set.

<option value="1111">one one one one</option>
<option value="2222">two two two two</option>
<option value="3333">three three three three</option>
<option value="1234">one two three four</option>

I hope you understand, it's quite hard to explain even though its super simple.
I can do this in PHP by doing<option value="1234" <?php if($_GET['areaCode'] == 1234) { echo 'selected="selected"; }>one two three four</option>

JQuery :: Animate() & Google Chrome - Call Goes To The Element Which Lost The Focus, With An Opacity Value Of 0.2?

Mar 18, 2010

I recently wrote some code, which involves a list. Elements can be picked by up/down arrow keys.To highlight the elements, I'm using a similar call to objects[focus]stop (true,true).animate({'opacity': 1}, 200);(As you can see, all DOM elements are cached)the same call goes to the element which lost the focus, with an opacity value of 0.2.Whatsoever, I noticed on testing that the performance is just fine on firefox 2/3, IE 7/8, even Safari has good results.Only exception so far is Chrome, it's terribly slow on those calls with a CPU load of 40-50%.I didn't further investigate that behavior since it still works "OK" on Chrome, but SIGNIFICANT slower.

Keeping Focus On A Text Field

May 29, 2006

Assuming I have the functions, "isNumber" and "isEmpty", how would I write the HTML INPUT type="text" element such that a person cannot exit the element unless they have typed in a valid number (as defined by the function isNumber) or left the field empty (as defined by isEmpty)? Thus, if they have typed in "aaa" and then pressed "Tab" to go the next element, they'd get a warning message, and be returned to the old element?

Ideally, this solution would work for both the latest versions of Firefox and IE.

Onclick Event From Link Whilst Keeping Link Attributes?

Aug 25, 2010

Im updating a website to use ajax instead of Iframes. Ajax is working fine to load html content into a <div> yet my issue lies with the navigation buttons that trigger my ajax requests.

I have css styled buttons that contain <a> links </a>, i have removed the href and used a onclick event instead but when i remove the href the mouse will lose its hand cursor on hover and the css styled buttons stop working correctly.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
function loadXMLDoc()
{
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
