Highlighting A Thumbnail That's Been Selected?
Jan 10, 2010I have a jQuery script running on my site that makes it so when you click on a thumbnail, a different overflow:hidden div is scrolled to the anchor point that thumbnail was linking to.I want to make it so the thumbnail that you clicked becomes selected (and all over thumbnails become unselected). This could be with a border, a shadow, an image appearing behind it, opacity - basically anything (preferably an image appearing behind it).
View 5 Replies View RelatedJQuery :: Superfish AddClass For Highlighting Selected Page?
Jul 6, 2011I've read through every post here on this issue and can't find an answer with an actual example of just how you amend the current tab in Superfish with the addClass to take the pathClass option so that it can be highlighted when you're on a specific page.
Even the official Superfish page and demos make no mention of how you do this thoughI can see there's a hash being passed in the URL. I've only just been exposed to such a concept and I'm not sure which bit of code is creating/reading the hash and how to apply it in this case as it's different from the last issue I had.
Inline Text Highlighting - User To Be Able To Select The Text They Want To Highlight
Sep 10, 2010Alright, I'm using a Rooh.It WordPress plugin right now, but I don't like the way they do it, so I want to write my own code to do something similar.
I want the user to be able to select the text they want to highlight, and the background color of that text changes to whatever color they have selected.
How can I do this in JavaScript?
Possible To Prevent Highlighting Text Within A Text Field?
Oct 26, 2002I am using a calendar control based on the one at Brainjar.com. I have made the text field into which the date is inserted readonly. The problem with this is that if a user attempts to change the date manually by deleting part of the highlighted text, the browser goes back one page.
I want to force the user to use the calendar control and not input text directly into the textfield- readonly is not enough as the text can still be highlighted and then causes problems if the user attempts to delete.
Static Text Highlighting -- Can It Be Done?
Jan 6, 2007I'm trying to write an application to demonstrate to a friend how to
highlight text in javascript, only problem is he wants it to be on divs
only.
So say for example you have a page, and you select some text in the div
(this is static text, not a form or anything) and you click "highlight"
is there a way to wrap style tags around that highlighted text using
javascript, without refreshing the page?
Highlighting Text With Cursor ?
Nov 10, 2011I'm trying to write a function that is similar to the ctrl+f functionality you get in IE, where you have a search string and when you click 'next' the whole string if matched is highlighted by the cursor.
This works fine for inputs and text areas using the following code:
But now I need to get it to work for normal text in a text node that is in the HTML/DOM. Is there an equivalent way of making the above method work for text in text nodes?
Alternatively is there a way to make the browser (IE) at least focus on some text in a text node? (I could then highlight it with CSS styles).
Disabling Highlighting Of Text
Dec 22, 2010The first page with the menu works just fine, but when you go to any of the other pages it won't let you highlight the text to copy and paste - in certain circumstances. It works fine on my home computer which is running Windows XP. I've been able to work with it in all browsers. On Windows Vista and Windows 7 there are issues. The only real difference is the previous/next page menu and the switch div script which is written in Javascript. This is the only thing I can think that's interfering. I've only tested Internet Explorer and Chrome in Vista (don't know about Chrome in 7) but it inhibits in both browsers.
Might there be any work arounds? On 14.html which is the Index (as in book, not the main web page) the switch div is gone but it's still not working. However, I tested just the switch div script on another web-site without the previous/next page menu and that also doesn't work.

Highlighting Text Within A Specific Cell
Sep 7, 2006I'm currently working on a project which is essentially a clickable
world map. I have successfully mapped the image and using a
OnMouseOver = "Continent()" OnMouseOut = "World()" command in each
mapping line ie. <area shape="poly" onmouseover="NA()"
onmouseout="World()" coords="(lotsonumbers)".
In my continent functions I change the image using something like:
function Africa()
{document.images[35].src="/_View/images/maps/worldmaps/world.africa.jpg";
return true;}
This gives me the "highlighting" effect I was looking for when people
mouse over the continent.
However! my problem now is that I need to find a way to essentially
link that with a cell within the same table as the mapped image. There
is a list of the continents in the column next to the map (the map has
all the rows merged in that column). I need it so that if I run the
mouse over the continent or that cell both of them highlight at the
same time. I see the best way of doing this as having both call the
World or Continent function. However I have been unable to find any
way of setting a specific cell's background or text from within a
function.

Wrapping Tags Around Selected Text In A Text Area!!
Jun 16, 2006I'm trying to 'wrap tags' around text in a text box.
<script language=javascript>
function insertFauxTags(fauxTag, e, endFauxTag)
{
var e = document.frmAddNewForum.txtTopicMessage.selected;
document.frmAddNewForum.txtTopicMessage.Value += fauxTag + e + endFauxTag;
}
</script>
And my form:
<form runat="server" id="frmAddNewForum">
<asp:textbox id="txtTopicMessage" runat="server" cssclass="formtext" rows="5" textmode="MultiLine" width="95%" style="width:95%"></asp:textbox>
</form>
And here's how I'm calling the function:
<a href="javascript:insertFauxTags('[p]' + e + '[/p]')"><img src="http://www.<%=strSiteName%>/images/parabutton.gif" border="0" alt="Paragraph" /></a>
When I run this in FF I get 'e' is not defined - any ideas?

Aug 16, 2010Is there a way to tell if the text in a text box has been selected forwards or backwards?If you select some text from left to right and then hold down shift and use the cursor keys the right end of the selection moves. If you select some text from right to left and then hold down shift and use the cursor keys the left end of the selection moves.Is there a way in Javascript to detect which way the text has been selected? I need to know if the "end" position is before the "start" position or after. Using ranges and selection objects seems to "normalise" the selection so that the start is before the end.
