Created Element Not Inheriting Css Class Formatting?
May 30, 2010
I'm using something along the lines of...
Code:
//next we need to create a row
workingTR = workingTable.insertRow(position+i);
// then I use setAttribute to set the class
[Code]....
the row (tr) is being assigned the class of employee-detail, and I've confirmed this by looking throught the dom explorer. however, it's NOT inherting the CSS formating that is located in a external file .css. I hard coded in a row with the same class 'employee-detail' and it inherited the css formatting.
I'm wondering why my javascript created row is not inheriting the css class formatting.
hi everybody, didn't find this using the search :( this is my problem: i create a dom element dynamically (<span>) and want to assign a class attribute to it such that it has some css style, this works in ie, but not in firefox :( here's the simple code:
<div id="somediv"></div>
var div = window.document.getElementById("somediv"); var span = window.document.createElement("span"); span.innerHTML = "span"; span.attributes.getNamedItem("class").nodeValue = "span_class"; div.appendChild(span);
so this works well in ie6, but firefox gives this error: Error: span.attributes.getNamedItem("class") has no properties
if i run this code on a statically defined span (in the html file), where a class attribute already is set:
changing the class to "span_class" works both in ie and firefox.
how can i fix my above code such that it works in both browsers? it seems that on newly created dom elements the class attribute isn't even there (to change it), how can i create it, and then change it?
I am new to this discussion but hope you would post reply for my query and encourage me to keep in touch with this discussion. Well here is my problem. I have made an edit in place form in which we can add and remove the elements. I have used jquery.jeditable.mini.js and jquery.duplicate-remove.js plugins for edit in place and add and remove action. I have live() function to access the dynamically ganerated elements like this. $(".addressDiv span").live("mouseover", function(){ clickable function here...
I'm trying to inherit from built-in JS objects - Array, specifically. However, I'm having some difficulties. I can add array elements to the child object, and when I retrieve them, they're the same as what I added. The problem is, the 'length' property remains zero no matter how many elements the child contains: Code:
I'm trying to append an onChange attribute to an element created through javascript. The following doesn't work. The select is created and has the proper name and id but no onChange..
var sel = document.createElement('select'); sel.name = 'size[' + i + ']'; sel.id = 'size[' + i + ']'; sel.onchange = "changeMini();";
Imagine an element with a specific selector getting created and then once the element exists and the selector is applied, all of the behaviors are applied (events, styles and plugin methods).
[Code]...
This would be similar to the live event where a function is applied to the specified event of all selectors even if they do not exist yet. The only difference is that the event is not the typical peripheral driven event (mousemove, keyup,etc) but would be fired once that element exists in DOM.
The following: jQuery('<p><a>jQuery</a></p>'); is supposed to create a link on a page but it doesn't and the link don't show. I am using WAMP web server. What can be wrong and how do I check it please.
I'm trying to remove an element that was created after the DOM was loaded using append().
I append the element to a div when the checkbox is checked. But if this checkbox is then unchecked I want to remove the element, but couldn't figure it out thus far.
After loading a HTML fragment using AJAX, I can not select the newly embedded elements using the $("#id") notation. document.getElementById works fine though.
I'm trying to check to see if a dynamically created element exists BEFORE creating another element of the same exact type...but my if statement at the beginning is not working and another element is just created.
function writeElement(id) { if(document.getElementsByTagName('transElement')[0]) { var id = id; killElement(); writeElement(id); } var id = id; var transElement = document.createElement('transElement'); [Code]...
Am creating text input element dynamically using DOM and i want to pass a event when onchange event is triggered.. Am able to assign the function to it but failing to pass the event..
I am trying to dynamically create child elements and add a background image before appending it to the parent node. Everything is working except for the image files actually appearing. When you inspect the element in Mozilla, it reveals that the li elements have all been created and attached, and even contain the "style" attribute. I am certain it is my reference to the image array that I am not calling correctly... how to use the array to reference the new background image? external js file:
I have a problem, I have a table which dynamically create <tr> elements with a unique numerical id, this is created on a while loop from a database statement, when I click on a hyperlink on each <tr> I use this:
[Code]...
So in this way, I'm sending the unique code (codigo) and I fadeToggle the <tr> identified with that specific id, it works, no problem, it display with one click, hides with another one, BUT, now I need that, when you click on a hyperlink, if any other <tr> is being displayed at the moment, close all of them, and open the clicked one, is there any way I can do this?
I am not completely new to JQuery, but not a beginner either. Anyway, I want to do some advanced stuff like creating everything dynamically with JQuery. So here's the rough concept: Step 1: Information get's collected Step 2: Information will be written in divs, the divs will get an ID and will be displayed with .append() Step 3: Setting css-propertys with the div's ID. I can't grab the div which I created with .append.
Actually I can't access anything which was created with .append - for example if I want to get an .attr() - I can't do it with these elements. Is there a workaround or am I wrong: $("#site").append("<div class='container' id=' " + containerId + "'>" + containerId + "</div>"); $("#" + containerId).css({ "left" : positionX + "px", "top" : positionY + "px", "background-color" : "#F000FA"});
I have live focusin and focusout bound for form validation. But if some content is created dynamically (either via a templating system or via ajax) it doesn't seem possible to initialise those elements (i have placeholder text that i might want to add inside the element for example).
Is there an event that is fired when an element is added to the dom?
