Calling A Function To Hide / Show Comments
Jul 19, 2009
So in the past I've mostly just copy and pasted other JavaScript functions I needed, and made slight modifications based on my exact needs. However, this time I couldn't find anything that would work with what I wanted to do (show and hide comments on news stories in a particular way), so I decided to just make my own.After a few hours of messing around with it, I'm quite exasperated, because what I have looks like it should work, but for some reason I can't identify, doesn't.Essentially what it should do is, find the table with the ID of the news article whose comments are being toggled, then find all the rows in the table that are labeled as comments, and either show them or hide them, based on their current state (as defined by their class with a "display: none;" in it or not).
Obviously it uses PHP, but I know that's not the problem; it just uses the article's ID number to pass on which comments need to be hidden/shown to the function.From everything I've looked up, this should work, but doesn't. Something peculiar, though, is that the function looks like it's not even being called; I put a simple alert('Test'); in the function, and still nothing happened when I clicked the link. So maybe my function is fine in itself, but I'm just calling it in an incorrect manner?

I have a 10 checkboxes on a form. When the user clicks one of the boxes the rest are hidden and a comments box shows. That works great, the part I can't figure out is how to make all the boxes show again if the user unchecks the checkbox and make the comments box hide again.[code]...

Here is Javascript to show and hide my comments div:
<script language=javascript type='text/javascript'>
function showdiv() {
if (document.getElementById) {
// DOM3 = IE5, NS6
document.getElementById('comments').style.visibility = 'visible';
} else {
if (document.layers) { // Netscape 4
document.hideShow.visibility = 'visible';
} else { // IE 4
document.all.hideShow.style.visibility = 'visible';
}}}
function hidediv() {
if (document.getElementById) { // DOM3 = IE5, NS6
document.getElementById('comments').style.visibility = 'hidden';
} else {
if (document.layers) { // Netscape 4
document.hideShow.visibility = 'hidden';
} else { // IE 4
document.all.hideShow.style.visibility = 'hidden';
}}}
I would now like to animate the div fading or moving down

I am trying to set up a toggle to allow users to show more precision when a user clicks a button. I have a function high() that doesn't do anything when it is called. I am fairly new to jQuery so I am not to familiar with the syntax.

The below is a menu, which is hidden until clicked, and can be hidden by clicking it again.
<!-- This goes in the HEAD of the html file -->
<script language="javascript">
<!--
function showIt() {
if (document.layers) {document.layers["layer1"].visibility='hide'}
else {document.all["layer1"].style.visibility='hidden'}
}
function hideIt() {
if (document.layers) {document.layers["layer1"].visibility='show'}
else {document.all["layer1"].style.visibility='visible'}
}
// -->
</script>
<style>
input {border-style: ridge;}
a:hover {text-decoration: underline}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<span id="layer" style="position:absolute; top:17; left:20; width:250; height:90; visibility:show">
<script>
<!-- author: bfsog@hotmail.com use it as you wish //-->
<!--
function buttonText(type) {
if (type=="Hide Menu ") {document.menu.button.value="Menu";}
else {document.menu.button.value="Hide Menu ";}
showIt();
if (document.menu.button.value=="Hide Menu ") {hideIt();}
}
// -->
<!-- change the value of 'top' and 'left' in the layers properties below to place the menu
in the desired position matching the placement of the button -->
</script>
<form name="menu">
<input type="button" name="button" onClick="buttonText(value);" value="Show Menu" />

I have a script to show and hide various divs based on a function & var. The problem I am having is that when ANY of the variables ('hate', 'ok' and 'love') are passed all 3 different feedback forms ('FeedbackHate', 'FeedbackOk' and 'FeedbackLove') appear, not just the one I want.
Here is the JS:
function sitesurveyswitch(emotion) {
var e = emotion;
document.getElementById('site_survey_hate').style.backgroundPosition = '0px 0px';
document.getElementById('site_survey_ok').style.backgroundPosition = '0px 0px';
document.getElementById('site_survey_love').style.backgroundPosition = '0px 0px';
document.getElementById('FeedbackHate').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('FeedbackOk').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('FeedbackLove').style.display = 'none';
if (e == 'hate')
document.getElementById('site_survey_hate').style.backgroundPosition = '-80px 0px';
document.getElementById('FeedbackHate').style.display = 'block';
if (e == 'ok')
document.getElementById('site_survey_ok').style.backgroundPosition = '-80px 0px';
document.getElementById('FeedbackOk').style.display = 'block';
if (e == 'love')
document.getElementById('site_survey_love').style.backgroundPosition = '-80px 0px';
document.getElementById('FeedbackLove').style.display = 'block';
}
And here is the code related to this function:
<div id="siteSurveyBox">
<span id="site_survey_hate" onclick="sitesurveyswitch('hate');return false;"></span>
<span id="site_survey_ok" onclick="sitesurveyswitch('ok');return false;"></span>
<span id="site_survey_love" onclick="sitesurveyswitch('love');return false;"></span>
</div>
<div id="FeedbackHate" style="display:none; margin-top:-28px;">
FEEDBACK FORM IS HERE
</div>
<div id="FeedbackOk" style="display:none; margin-top:-28px;">
FEEDBACK FORM IS HERE
</div>
<div id="FeedbackLove" style="display:none; margin-top:-28px;">
FEEDBACK FORM IS HERE
</div>

I am very new to javascript and html. I am trying to create a function which will hide or show a div (div1). Right now, it is always showing the div whether the boolean value is true or false. I know that it is getting inside the else if part, but it doesn't seem to be working.
<script type="text/javascript">
function hideDiv(flag){
if (flag == false){
document.getElementById('div1').style.visibility="visible";
}else if (flag == true){
document.getElementById(div1).style.visibility="hidden";
}}
var bool = new Boolean(true)
hideDiv(bool);
</script><body>
<div id="div1">
Text!
</div></body>

I have a simple FAQ show/hide function set up however I am having trouble setting up an if clause. My code is:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("dd").hide();
$("dt").click(function(){
$("dd").hide('slow');
$(this).next().slideToggle();
});
});
However, when you click on the same item twice it firstly hides and then reshows it, I need an if statement that basically states;
if "this?!" is visible/shown
Then do nothing
else
$("dd").hide('slow');
$(this).next().slideToggle();
I am unsure of the syntax and can't figure out what property I can trace out to see if the item is being shown or not.

I am trying to create a simple splash page.
I have 2 divs on the page, div1 has a gif animation in it and div2 is the page content. I want to hide div2 and only show div1 which plays the gif, then after some time div1 fades away and div2 fades up to show the page content.
This is my thought process:
1) On doc ready, hide div2
2) after 3000 fade div1 out
3) fade div2 in
$(document).ready (function(){
$('#div2')hide();
but I dont know how to fade out the div after a time and fade in the other div.
The examples I see all use the click function.

I have a table that Im hiding during the initial load that has a considerable amount of data. (I dont design'em, I just code 'em).
During the .show, .hide ... functions I would like to display a please wait msg. But I cant seem to find a way to do an async function. As the callback functions only deal with sync ...(I think)

I have a table that contains many rows, some in italian with code <td nome='riga_i'>. and some in english with code <td name='row_e'>. I have created two buttons with different background flags: italy and uk, so when one pushes the button with flag uk, the html page will be reloaded with only english rows, and when one pushes the button with flag it, the same page is reloaded containing only italian rows. All the code posted here works well, but I think that the code can be better because to reach this result I had to dupplicate the same function and I don' t like this.
Here the code:

I have a function that uses the ajax load function to post off some parameters and fill a div with the returned content after a db query has been run to create it. This all works fine, however I would like to be able to replace the div with a loading graphic whilst the content
is generated. I assumed this was done by placing the graphic at the start of the function, then using a callback function to remove it and display the actual data once it has been fully generated...
However when I trey to implement this I am getting a strange result in that the callback fires before the content is generated. So my loading graphic disappears and then the content appears sometimes 10 seconds later. How can I ensure the call back only executes once the new content is
ready to be displayed ??
Here's my code ...
function get_report(){
// Hide #report_here div and show loading graphic here ...
$("#report_here").load("/admin/reports/statistics_report/", {
// Parameters sent go here
}, finished()
);
function finished() {
// Hide loading graphic and show #report_here div here ...
}

I have a form button with id="submit". When pressed, ClickGeocode(credentials) is called. This works fine and dandy with: $('submit").click(ClickGeocode) Despite there being no indication that the function takes an argument 'credentials'. So when I want to call the function at some point in my code, I should be able to do something like ClickGeocode(credentials) ... no? However, my issue is that credentials isn't once defined in my code - it is part of Bing Maps function... like so:
function ClickGeocode(credentials)
{
map.getCredentials(MakeGeocodeRequest);
}
So why does it work using .click(), and how can I call the function without user interaction (simply somewhere in my code) even if 'credentials' is not defined?

which works once the page hasn't been loaded using.load $(".toggle_cat_container").hide(); How do I adapt it to work when the page is loaded with .load? I am familiar with needing to use .live on click functions.
i.e.
$("a[id^='mydiv']").click(function(e) {
needing to be changed to:
$("a[id^='mydiv]").live('click', function(e) {
My problem is that $(".toggle_cat_container").hide(); would trigger when the document was ready but when its loaded it won't trigger. What adaptation do I need? I suspect something similar to the below - just not getting it right $(".toggle_cat_container").live('onLoad', function(e) {

I have 2 javascript files: 1 containing generic functions for my site used sitewide and another for a particular web page containing just the javascript for that page. The page is also calling the jQuery javascript file.
What I want to do is have a javascript function in my main javascript file which uses features of jQuery such as show, hide etc. and then I want to call this javascript function from the other page specific javascript file.
[Code]...
This does not work and so was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as to how to achieve this or something similar.

I am creating a little word guess game, with a random function which picks the word from an array of 10 words. The second function checks if the users' letter choice is part of the secret word. Currently, each time the checkGuess() function is called, the word is changed, probably because I am calling the wordPicker() function from within. The wordPicker randomly chooses the word, then returns that word. All I want to do is pull that word into the checkGuess function, without calling the wordPicker function as it currently does. Here is the code:
Create secret word array
var wordList = new Array("stealth", "telephone", "internet", "nickel", "marine", "instantiate", "method", "function", "television", "monitor")
