I've been working on a multi-level drop down menu. It is already finished but while making it I encountered a problem that I'd like to find a solution for.
In the code, I clearly seperated the Model, View and Controller parts. The View part basically works with a single redraw-function. It clears the HTML of the complete drop-down menu and redraws it by recreating the needed DIV elements and adding them back to the webpage. The Controller part is a simple state machine that has transitions on onmouseover, onmouseout and onclick events.
In practice, when the mouse was moved over or out of some menuitem, the menu would be redrawn. The redraw function would first remove the complete menu from the HTML dom, and then re-insert the elements of the changed menu. Each of these elements contains a onmouseover and onmouseout argument.
The problem is as follows: in every redraw, when the menu is removed a onmouseout event is triggered, and when the menu is re-created a onmouseover event (in FFox). In IE, for some reason only a onmouseout event is triggered. This made my state machine think that the user actually moved the mouse pointer out of the menu element. Therefore the menu would go bananas and collapse!
The best way to solve this seems to simply ignore all of the user inputs during the redraw funtion for, say, 5 milliseconds during the redraw. However, in pratice, when the user moves the mouse very quickly the state machine 'misses' a mouseout event and the menu doesn't disappear as it should.
My question now is: does anybody know a neat way to prevent these 'ghost' events from happening while rebuilding the page, without interfering with the 'real' events?
I have a problem that suprisingly (not) only affects IE.
I have a hover/mouseover event when a users cursor enters a div, but because there is text inside my div IE is replaying the event if I hover in/out of the area that has text even though it is in the same div.
I have a requirement....I have a timer on a page. If the user leave the page (mouse goes off of that page) the timer starts and continues...and when the user comes into that page(mouse over that page) the timer goes off/STOP....Is this can be done?? using javascript?
jQuery('div#primary').attr('width', '300'); I am manipulating html file. I am doing the above. But It is not updating the html file with the new width.
If I run the site, both animations run at the same time. I would like to achieve, that the animation atBildLeiste0 runs first and after it is completed the animationtBildLeiste1should start.If this runs the way I want, I want to make the script flexible from 2 two 6 animations and finally generate it so that it runs in an infinite loop.This is one of the first jquery-codes
I have a text box where a user can press enter, tab (keypress) or click out of it (focusout) and an action happens. The box then gets removed. The problem is, the user presses enter, but that event is fired and then as the text box is removed the focus out is firing again.
How do I prevent removing the text box from firing the focusout action? I can remove the action totally but the text box could be returned to the document later.
I'm trying to echo a php variable to my javascript function but nothing is happening.Basically this php page displays bunch of records with a radio button next to each record. So when the radio button is clicked it would open that record in a new window that is clicked.
I have set up a disclaimer page for our public access PCs at our Libraries which has the following function:
function breach() { alert("Proceeding beyond these Conditions is..................... If you have read the Conditions, scroll to the bottom and press the 'Yes I
agree' button.") window.location="disclaim.htm"
and then in the body tag I have onunload=breach() This works fine for all websites entered into the address bar except if
you enter www.google.com
What it is supposed to do is bring up the prompt and when you click on the OK button it will go back to the disclaimer page. They should only be able to get to the web by clicking on the 'Yes I agree' button at the bottom of the disclaimer page. Does anyone out there know why google doesn't fire up the disclaim.htm page like all the other sites? It is very frustrating.
I've got the below function that works perfectly fine in FF, but it acts like nothing is happening in IE 8. I've tried the no cache option, my own url random addition and numerous variations.
I am trying to "ajaxify" my site. Now I have one problem:
$("#posts").children().remove(); $("#tag-sidebar").children().remove(); $.each(data.Tags_Sidebar, function (indexInArray, valueOfElement) { var insert = $("<li>");
[Code]......
Now when I click one of those links (href1, href2, href3) generated, the click event won't execute! What's the problem? Also, is it right that I have to transfer the valueOfElement over, like I did? What does stopEventPropagation do? Prevent the href from being navigated to? That's what I am trying to do.
I m trying to make a person stay on same page on cancel, but the confirm takes the user to the next page like they press ok. how can i stop it? code...
I have a series of images with an animation bound to mouseover and mouseleave events, and I'm trying to get my head around adding a click event that would prevent the mouseleave animation from occurring only for the image that was clicked, preserving everything else as is (until another image is clicked). I've discovered .stop() and I think I'm getting close, but some part of the logic is still escaping me.
I've got 2 pages: a current events page and a past events page the current events page loads fine as there is only about 10 events the past events page takes about 30 seconds to load and will crash if u click your mouse in the loading time.
The pages are near identical the only difference is the query that selects the events (> versus <)
The page loads immediately without:
But when i put it back in the above happens. I'm using jQuery.roundedcorners.
The click event will fire if you click the <a>, OR if you tab to it with your keyboard and hit Enter.My question is: is there a way to make elements other than <a> tags accessible in this way? I recently discovered if you define a tabindex on your div, such as <div tabindex="0">test</div>, you can tab to that div, but click events don't seem to fire if you use your keyboard. Are <a> tags the only tags that can work in this way?
I have a website that has an ad box to show the next event. after many hours i got the box to sit above a flash menu but it now floats and when people try to scroll to read the rest of the flyer it is always bellow the screen...

I'm trying to control the playback of 2 swf's, embedded in a html page.They should play or stop at the same time when a play or stop button is clicked.It has to do with that getElementById thing I guess, but I know very little javascript. Can anyone help me out with this?
what script goes above the <head> in my doc, and what code goes with the imagemaps?
This works wonderfully in Firefox, but when it runs for the first time in IE it only creates the field, but won't create any attributes for the events. When debugging the events are null. How can I get this to work in IE. Code:
I am currently creating a small user object that will control some events which will be passed and store some data such as point values. Currently I am having some difficulties with the event method handleMouseDown with any property defined in the object. Code:
I have a general question regarding events. I have a container div, and many divs within it. Without attaching an event to each of the divs, can i attach an event to the container div, and somehow attain which div within it was the event fired over.
I am following the standards, and also do not to need to be concerned about IE, and its issues.
