I am retrieving titles from a database and then displaying them on screen. However when I display them I must make sure that they fit inside a certain rectangle. If it deosn't fit then i must reduce the font size and recalculate until it fits. The title is in two parts Code:
Is there any way that one could have supersubs functionality applied to drop-down multi-column menus?I assume one would need to calculate the width of each column plus the combined width for the container.
In PS you press CTRL+T on new layer. 9 handles appears an then you can stretch/rotate/move that layer. Looking just for that stretch & rotate functionality with dotted/dashed retangle outline. That is, there should be 8 handles on rectangle boundarys and then rectangle should be rotated & stretched via those points. & moved via nineth center point.
I have a digitvalue in the title of my element, and i want to set the width of this element based on the title. $("li[title]").css({ width: $(this).attr("title") + "px" });
i tried that, but not working, it wont just set the width,
The <div class="child"> width value is always 10 pixels less than <div id="parent"> width value. How can it be calculated so any width value is given to <div id="parent">, its child gets 10 pixels less than that?
i try to figure out how to calculate string width in a textarea while typing in it. the textarea has a fixed start width. when the string gets longer as the textarea width, the textarea should be made bigger while typing programatically.
my only problem is to determine the size of the string in the textarea. i know the font family and font size.
I want to automatic calculate the width of a child div. I have a parent with a fixed with and two children in there. The first has a flexible width due to his content (title of post) and is transparent. The second child contains only a background image and should always fill the rest-width. I tried it like this but it doesn't work [code]...
I understand that if I have an element in my document tree, I can use getComputedStyle() to determine its width based on CSS styles.
I want to dynamically create some elements to populate a given div, but I want the size of these elements to be controllable via CSS. When dynamically populating the div, I need to determine how many elements will fit. Currently, I have to add an element to the div first so its size will be calculated, then I can base my calculations off of that. However, this seems like not a great way to do ti.
Is there some way to ask for the size of an element to be calculated as if it were part of the document tree? That way, I could make my changes all at once.
I have an application that draws a selection rectangle over a map image. I can get it to work fine in IE and Opera, but not Firefox/Netscape.
I've thrown the following small example together to illustrate the problem - the problem being that FF/NE initially draw my rectangle before the icon changes immediately to the black no-entry icon. Then, when I let go of the mouse, the rectangle continues drawing, but it doesn't stop as the mouseup has already fired of course.
IE was doing the same, but I found the ondragstart/cancelDragDrop solution to that. I can't find what appears to be a similar solution for FF/NE.....
When setting the tabIndex property for an element, Firefox also displays, like IE, a dotted rectangle around the focussed element. With IE you can set hideFocus=true, which does not work with Firefox.
In slideshow running on xp_pro/ie8, after the last slide is displayed, a small white rectangle (approx w:60px h:20px) at the top left positionwhere the1st slide is about to re-appear. The 1st slide then displays correctly, as doall the slides, but I can't keep the rectangle from showing up.
I want to create a rectangle with a line in the middle with the canvas object. The problem is that the line in the middle gets bigger than the rest of the rectangle. How do I solve this? I believe it has something to do with shadows. If so, how do I turn them off.
This page: [URL] seems to indicate that it's possible, but it looks like it also pops up an alert window which would be annoying as hell. Is there a way to, say, once every minute change the title bar text?
You see I have a text file of rotating slogans that appear each time you reload a page on my site and someone suggested that having them change even when the page is already open might be fun. I thought I'd look into it and see if it's possible. The site is [URL]
I don't know enough about javascript to know if this is possible. I am fairly good at implementing and installing other people's code, though, and can usually make minor changes to tweak things.
so the story is that i using and IFRAME in my web site , and i want the main title of the document (which appears in the browser title bar) to be the title from the iframe 'page' . my English is not so good so i 'll give an example .
I am looking to use a similar method as facebook chat does, where it alternates between the original title text and 'friendsName has sent you a message!...'
At my day job, we use a cms that generates really terrible <title></title> tags that are killing our SE rankings.
Instead of taking the title of the piece of content and putting it in the title tags, it uses the name of the page template.
I first attempted this with jquery, but i'm looking for something that will basically just take <title>template name</title> and replace it with something friendlier.
let me try to explain better what I'm trying to do. I'm a real newbie I don't know much javascript but I understand more or less the logic behind it... tell me if this solution should work and if you know how to do it please show me. [URL]... I need to make div#photo's width to match the total width measurement of all the images it contains. If you load the page and you don't touch the size, it will work fine... but that's not realistic. If I resize the page, which will happen often on this kind of page (I'm assuming), the whole thing goes haywire (try it, scroll to the last image and resize the page you'll see what I mean). What can I do? Is my idea the right solution? Am I not explaining this clearly enough? Let me know please, I'm desperate. I've been trying to get CSS to do this for me for 3 hours now. Nothing works.
I currently have a website where i share thoughts with my friends (some kind of forum) and within this 'forum' people can post pictures they made but most of the time these pictures exceed the max width of my website so my website gets all streched out!So this is what i want: all images on the page must run thru some sort of function which checks if the image image width exceeds the max_width. if it does then the script must calculate how many pixels the current width exceeds the max_width and get this number so that the script does: current_width = current_width - (max_width - current_width)
I've recently start using Flexigrid (old JQuery grid plugin), and, as you may know, one of the few issue this really good grid plugin got is the lack of liquid layout option. My personal idea to solve the problem is to set the "width" parameter depending on $(window).width. Here is the problem (and here's why i post this question in "General use" and not in "Plugin").
The starting, and working, code is: $(document).ready(function(){ $("#flex1").flexigrid ( {
[Code].....
This work fine for me, but I supose it could be done way much elegant... maybe somethin without "IF" that could emulate the "%", like var percentage = $(#div.id).width()*0.XX with the 0.XX picked from an array of percentage, one for each column. Probably I should set up a function... ahhhh, as you may easily see I'm a total beginner with JQuery (and JS in general...)
I am trying to setup a javascript function that sets a div's width based on the combined width of the li's with the name "navItem". The problems I have been running into when trying to define the width of the li's is that they do not have a width defined in css. Can anyone help me out with this? The javascript function setWindow is suppose to show the div loginWindow and set the width of it.
Is the next jQuery code the best way to decrease an elements width?[code]I tried using the next code:[code]but that's not working, also not with '-20'.Maybe it's an idea to add this functionality? It's is already used in the .animate() function for changing the position of an element.
I need a code that when a button or image is clicked then a div's width and height are changed.
Ive managed to get a few codes that does this, but the real problem is that, the contents of the div is an embedded flash file and i thought that by setting the flash width and height to 100% then the flash would fit to the new size of the div, but it just didnt work.
I need a code that when a button is clicked then the div's and the flash's width and height are changed.
please have a look at the temp website latinunit net / temp / , you will understand where im coming from.
on the right hand side i have a flash chat in a div , div is controled by a script that allows it to follow the scrollers up and down.
My goal is to add a little button in the same div that says expand or maximise so when clicked the the div expands aswell as the flash file.
I want to set the width of a div to be the same width of the image inside the div.The following code works great. But...The images are different widths, so both wrappers are set to the width of the first image. Without having to add an ID to each wrapper or image, can the wrapper width be set to the image width using the name of the image as the unique identifier?
jQuery: $(document).ready(function(){ var newWidth = $('div.wrapper img').attr('width'); $('div.wrapper').width(newWidth); });
