i have been looking for a script like this for a few weeks now, and i
am finally giving up and asking for help. everything i found involved
preventing overlap in dreamweaver, i want to prevent it in the output
on all of the browsers.
basically i have a page that has absolute layers (cannot be relative)
with the coordinates top/left in the db. but sometimes on certain
pages the layers overlap. I cannot set a static size for those layers.
so i was wondering if anyone has a script, that will check for any
overlapping of layers, and if it overlaps, to move the layer to the
right, or down, until it no-longer overlaps. i can modify anything
similar if you have it.
I have this code for a floating menu - but it starts on an absolute position and then starts to move as you scroll once it reaches a certain distance from the top of the browser, I have seen floating menus that will also stop in a certain spot on the page, even if you continue to scroll the page, can I alter this code to make this menu stop at a certain point on the page?
I have an SVG file and draggable div on one page. When I move div over this SVG file, it looks like div loses control and detaches from the mouse. If I do it slowly, div seems to barely follow the mouse which is being over SVG.
I tried assigning zIndex to SVG file to be the same as other elements on the page, but that did not help. Would anyone know why this happens?
I'm working on modifying a jQuery plugin that makes an image carousel. I like how it is not with one exception... I'd like the images to overlap one another. So the main image that is displayed will overlap the ones on either side of it somewhat.
You can view the source of the demo I posted to look at the JS for it... I used the "moving boxes" plugin and already modified it a lot.
When it occurred to me that I needed to calculate this, I knew it was over my head. (although I did come up with what I thought to be a pretty clever solution involving a very complex series of arrays...) So I decided to google it. The trouble is, the solution was a little over my head too... So I hacked away at it for about an hour, and finally it worked, but on closer inspection I had made a typo from the original algorithm.
Is the original algorithm correct, or flawed? is my interpretation correct/flawed, or the same? I'm not really sure what I did here, but after many tests, I think I got the correct solution.
original post on [URL] Let CondA Mean DateRange A Completely After DateRange B (True if StartA > EndB) Let CondB Mean DateRange A Completely Before DateRange B (True if EndA < StartB)
Then Overlap exists if Neither A Nor B is true ( If one range is neither completely after the other, nor completely before the other, then they must overlap)
Now deMorgan's law, I think it is, says that
Not (A Or B) <=> Not A And Not B
Which means (StartA <= EndB) And (EndA >= StartB)
NOTE: This includes conditions where the edges overlap exactly. If you wish to exclude that, change the >= operators to >, and <= to <
And finally the test scenario that I finally got to work:
I'm using this small js to scroll a div, the problem is that it goes all the way to the bottom of the page and overlapping my footer, I need it to stop before the footer. [URL] $(function () { var msie6 = $.browser == 'msie' && $.browser.version > 7; if (!msie6) { var top = $('#contact').offset().top - parseFloat($('#contact').css('margin-top').replace(/auto/, 0)); $(window).scroll(function (event) { // what the y position of the scroll is var y = $(this).scrollTop(); // whether that's below the form if (y >= top) { // if so, ad the fixed class $('#contact').addClass('fixed'); } else { // otherwise remove it $('#contact').removeClass('fixed'); }}); }});
I have about 40 divs, all positioned absolutely with a certain width and a left attribute.I am looking for a way to make sure all these divs don't overlap, meaning that if one div has its starting point (left) within another div(left+width), the first div should be moved down as long as it takes (height of 2nd div).Having barely any experience with jQuery at all, I really hope I can find some answers here.
i renamed this topic, original post was sent yesterday under "override of drop down menu and accordion (display problem)" and published in Using Jquery UI)I set a drop down menu using jquery naviDropDown 1.0 and use accordion of jquery-ui-1.8.11 too. I have a problem because the drop down menu is diplayed behing the accordion block.
I was looking for something that would allow me to scatter elements (divs w/ background-images) behind text. Splatter is almost what I want, but I would need:
- no overlap in the positioning of elements
- keep the elements inside the container
- remove the default asterisk completely
As I have varying article dimensions, this keeps the splatter area the right size:

I m trying to make a person stay on same page on cancel, but the confirm takes the user to the next page like they press ok. how can i stop it? code...
I am using the tablesorter plugin and am experiencing the following problem:
Under several scenarios the up/down arrow icons will overlap with the text in a column's header. This occurs if the browser is resized so the table width is too narrow (e.g. plugin should force a min-width perhaps?).
More importantly, this will also occur when the text in a columns header is shorter than any of the values in the column the up/down icons overlap with the text in the column header.
I've attempted setting padding on the header columns but no success (probably because the up/down icons are set as background images and therefore have no impact on padding)
At the moment the plugin won't be usable for me since the arrorws overlap with the text in several columns.
When viewed with Firefox. The show/hide function doesn't work as expected (evident when viewed). Anyone know why? Which bit is FF not liking and how can it be altered to be cross browser friendly?
Hey guys, im just learning how to use layers in css, and am trying to change a div like a targeted frame so that I can change content that is floating ontop of another image. So far I got that to work, except when I put in any embedded videos or image tags, then it stops working.[code]
Anyone know of any good beginners guide to layers online, preferably with examples of form elements (initially populated from a database) updating the parent page?
I have the basic functionality working with a popup window and 'opener.document.form1', but this doesn't look that good and I can't get it to fill anything but a form element on the parent page.
When you mouse out of the div, it goes back into hidden. But as soon as I touch any of the links, it hides, thinking I've left the DIV.
Now, I'm assuming this is a z-index layer issue, but I've tried every combination of things I could think of to prevent the mouseout action when mouseing over one of the links.
I tried setting div.popup's z-index higher than a.popuplink's, lower than a.popuplinks, and the same as. (I did set each to a position as well.)
Before you immediately give me an answer, let me describe fully what I'm trying to do, as it's not as simple as the title suggests.
I need to get the absolute position of a DIV (top and left properties) relative to the viewport/screen.
I've tried using .offsetTop and .offsetLeft, but these return the top and left properties relative to the DIV's immediate parent element, not the viewport (unless of course the DIV is top-level and not contained in any other DIVs).
So, is there any way to retrieve the absolute position of a DIV relative to the viewport, even if that DIV is nested in other DIVs?
