Back Button - Remember Actions - Table Sorting

Sep 10, 2009

I have a list like this...

Thing 1
Thing 2
Thing 3
(expand)

When you click on expand, it becomes.

Thing 1
Thing 2
Thing 3
Thing 4
Thing 5
Thing 6
Thing 7
(shrink)

Now, user X clicks on Thing 6. He didn't want 6, but 7. So he clicks the evil back button. Now the list is truncated again and the user gets annoyed wishing that the list was expanded where he left off. What's the best way to let javascript remember to keep the list expanded after the back button is pressed? I have the same issue for table sorting. I use the Jquery tablesorter pluggin and the sorting is forgotten after the back button is pressed.

JQuery :: Stopping Back Button From Refreshing The Page And Undoing All The User Actions?

Aug 25, 2010

I have a number of pages that organize book data by category and then by unit, chapter, section, etc... Since there is a ton of data I display the headings and hide the rest of the content for the category. When a user clicks the heading then the content for the heading is shown underneath it. This works great and the users don't have to scroll (at least not much in comparison to if everything on the page was visible) unless for some reason they expand tons of stuff.

The problem:My company wants it so that if they expand a bunch of stuff and then browse to another page, that when they click the back button, everything should still be expanded as they left it. The issue is, this content is only available to logged in users and is based on their current location (which they can change at any point), so if their session expires or they logout, using the back button to get to these pages needs to redirect them to the login screen, if they change pages and change their location, going back to this page needs to display the correct content for their location. It is kind of a catch-22. Of course in the eyes of my company "shouldn't it just work that way?"

2 Specific Actions In 1 Button?

Jun 25, 2011

Here's the problem :

I have a div named "cat" that I want to hide with a Javascript:animatedcollapse (slideup) action. The action is linked externally on another page.

This is the line/link that hides it : <a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.hide('cat')">Hide the div<br/>

It works fine.

But, I want this action to happen at the same time that you press another link (that other link opens a page in an iframe).

This is the iframe link :
<p><a href="page.html" target="iframe">Open link in iframe</a></p>

Both links work fine. But i want to merge the two together. How?

Several Actions With One Submit Button

Jul 22, 2009

I basically have no idea what I'm doing. This is in a popup window, and what I want is for the submit button to populate an item to the shopping cart, close the popup window, and return to the parent url (in that order.) The problem I'm having is that I can either get items to show up in the cart, or get the popup to close and return to the url. Not both. Here's what I've got:

Having A Lightbox Pop Up When A User Clicks The Back Button In Their Browser Rather Than Just Navigating Back

Jul 1, 2011

I'm looking to have a lightbox pop up when a user clicks the Back button in their browser rather than just navigating back. The purpose is to ask a question with a Yes/No answer, and if they click No, I allow them to go back. The only thing I've found anything like this is the onUnload event, but that doesn't prevent them from going back. How should this be handled?

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if javascript:window.history.back == 1
{
javascript:window.history.back(4);
return false;
}

Sorting Table Data Rec'd From DB

Nov 13, 2006

I mainly do LAMP programming, and as such don't have much experience with JavaScript.

I'm looking for a simple function that will allow the user to reorder search data gotten from a database and displayed in a table.

Meaning, the user clicks on one of the column headers, and js automatically resorts the results. I've seen some stuff online, but none of it seems to really work.

Can anyone point me to something in the right direction?

Sorting Columns In A Table Or Form

Jul 20, 2005

I need to be able to create a 2 column table and then based on which column
header is clicked on, sort the list by that column so that each table row is
sorted properly. If possible there might be more than one line in the row
and I would only want to sort on the first line in a given row. Can this be
done using JavaScript. If so, which entities do I need (A table? A form?)

Client Side Table Sorting?

Jan 17, 2011

I have to sort a table where few columns are dynamically generated .I searched the net and came out with sorttable.js included in my jsp file . then called this function in <body>onload event as initTables('id_of the table"); It was working out for me..I have some columns which introduce the concept of hidden columns so when I try to hide it instead of hiding it just sorts..Is there a way to not to sort the first row alone becoz my first row is the total amount. I do have expand and collapse columns in my table I am not able to sort the parent row get sorted along with the child rows. I want the parent row to be static and only the child rows getting sorted ..

HTML Form With Differing Actions Depending On Button Pressed?

Mar 15, 2010

I have a form, and i want two alternative submit links done as <a> links.Essentially, one will 'save changes' and remain on the same page, the other will 'save and preview' the final content.I've been playing for a while and can't seem to get it to workIf i just use one button and set the form action as normal all works fine.I'm told that i can set the form action within a javascript function and submit the form from there, but the problem is that clicking the link now just goes to the 'href' on the save button without submitting the form. (I believe the href is still required to make a working link).My code is as follows (ive simplified it to the essential components being used, theres also some php bits in the action being set) :

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function docSave()

Sorting Values By Column In An HTML Table?

Apr 16, 2010

I'm working on a project that requires an HTML table, in which the rows can be sorted (ascending and descending) based on the values of a particular column. In other words, regular sorting.I've tried a couple jquery plugins and they work just fine, however, the table that I'm working with is somewhat different to a regular table, because it will display 2 values (prices) in the same column for each row.

I would like to write my own java script function or plugin to accomplish what I need, but before I write any code, I just wanted to get some advice as to the things I need to take into consideration.For example (and please forgive my thought process in case is flawed):n order to sort the rows of the table, based on the values of a particular column I would have to do the following:Capture the values of the column I want to sort by and sort themThen, capture the values of each row and link them to each cell on the column that is being sorted

JQuery :: Tablesorter Not Sorting Table Returned Via Ajax?

Oct 22, 2009

I have a div container that is used to specify where the table I retrieve via ajax is placed $("#div_reveal").html(AjaxResponse). I have tried to add an onSuccess function to update the table function (){ $("table").trigger("update"); } but the table does not sort. When I copy the output table directly into the page (static) it sorts. Therefore, I am assuming that the new table is not being added to the Dom and and is not being "recognized" by tablesorter. Does anyone know of a solution to retrieve and display a full html table via ajax and get tablesorter to sort it.

Sortable Table Incorrectly Sorting Date Column?

Nov 4, 2009

found a script here that allows for sortable tables in HTML, and for the most part, it works great. But with my date field, it either sorts alphabetically (Aug->Sept), or, if I change Names to Numbers (Jan=1, Feb=2, etc) the sort order becomes 1, 10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (I only have Jan-Oct dates). I think I have to tell my script to interpret my numbered dates as text, but like I said I'm new to JS and wouldn't know where to begin. Javascript [URL]

Back - Forward Browser Button For Iframe - Bring Back/forward Iframe Or Top Window?

Jan 24, 2011

I am wondering how Back, Forward browser button works for iframes. Does it bring back/forward iframe or top window? I remember I had before a problem because I wanted to bring back iframe and not top window as it did. But today I tested my Facebook app and was surprised to see it works as I need which means it brings back/forward iframe window and not top. Is it possible that Facebook has some javascript code which does that or is this normall behaviour?
