OnChange Event Not Firing When Input Is Populated From Child Window
Jun 16, 2011
I'm working on a quote generator and I'm running into an issue with onChange events not firing when a text field is dynamically populated via a child window. Here's my setup: I have 3 text boxes (quantity, price, markup) that are multiplied together in order to give the total of that product. Each text box has an onChange event [called calculator()] that calls an external javascript file, which handles the multiplication and instantly updates the total of that product. Up to this point, everything works fine - - when I manually edit any of the 3 inputs, the total updates correctly.
However, my problem is that I now have the "price" text box being dynamically populated, and when it updates it is not firing the onChange event attached to it. The text box is being filled by way of launching a child window and running the following code within it:
Now, when the input box is populated, the onsubmit doesnt trigger. I have tried adding the following to the end of the javascript file for the date selection, but it has no effect:
Ok, so the above code will do the regex when the contents of the textbox changes, but it does not seem to call the checkPrice function I've placed after it does the regex.
I have the above on Change code in a .keyup event and it works as expected.
I have a HTML and I am opening another link in a separate window using window.open() . The child window is something like 'http://yahoo.com' which is out side html. I need to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
I have aded window unload event handler to my code. my page calls some function that takes few secs and page then loads in 5-6 secs. while ths page is loading, if user clicks 'x' on browser window, then code inside unload event handler doesnt get executed. if user waits for page to be loaded fully and hten clicks 'x', then unload event handler gets executed. but i want if during loading user decides to click 'x' button, then also unload handler shold get exucted.
I am pasting a sample code that simulates my situation:
I have an HTML page where I am opening a child window using window.open. the child window is something like yahoo.com. I want to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
I have created a classic Snake game. When I run the game in a browser, it works fine. But when I run it as an IFRAME in another window, then it fails to get the keyboard events.

how to capture Window Keyboard Event in the Child IFrame
I have an input text with an onchange event that calls a function in which an alert box displays. I also have a button whose onclick calls a different function. If the user makes a change in the input text and immediately clicks the button, the onchange event fires, displaying the alert box, but the code in the function for the onclick of the button doesn't execute. I've read that this has something to do with event bubbling, but I haven't seen any solutions.
As far as I understood, stopPropagation() is supposed to stop events bubbling 'up' though the element tree (through parent elements). Eg. If I use stopPropagation() on a click event on an anchor element in a list, the event would not be triggered on the list. In my code I have a popup div, that needs to have stopPropagation(), as a click on the document (everywhere other than the popup) will hide it. When I add an element to the popup that has a live click event, the live click event is never called, even though it is a child element of the popup. Shouldn't the live click get called first? If I remove the stopPropagation all is well.. some code:
I'm currently facing a weird issue with the onchange event. I have a web application where each blur event makes a call the webserver to store the value of the textfield. I only want to trigger that ajax call when something has changed, so i track the onchange event on each textfield to set a flag if something has changed.
The onchange event always fires to first time when i click outside of a textfield even if i didn't change anything in the field.
I narrowed it down to the following: A prefilled textfield always fires the onchange-event the first time you leave the textfield. An initially empty textfield does not fire the onchange event.
I have some ajax gotten content which I want to fire a scroll event on. Its basically a table inside a div, and the div has scrolling enabled. The divs class is data table.
I am using 2 ajax functions in the program. One for login and one for logout.The login one is showUser which is working correctly by using the form onsubmit method, however the logout button (IN BOLD) onclick method is not working.
This pops up a new window with every call. In the child window I call a parent function onbeforeunload, appClose() :
function appClose(){
if (window.opener && !window.opener.closed){ window.opener.CloseChild(getQueryString("application")); }}
This is in my frameset tag of the child code :
<frameset ... onbeforeUnload='appClose()'>
The window.opener.CloseChild() function is called perfectly when I have one child window open, but as soon as I create another child window both of the open child windows don't ever call it. They do both go into the onbeforeunload appClose() function, but do not call the window.opener.CloseChild() function inside of this routine.
Anyone have any ideas why when I have two child windows open I can't access the window.opener functions?
I have tried taking each new window out of the array and used the following code in CloseChild() :
I've noticed that the change event isn't being fired for me on form elements when the changes are made pragmatically (eg, using the attr() method). For instance, a checkbox's change event fires if I click it, but not if I use .attr('checked', false);
I'm using jQuery 1.4.2 and Firefox 3.6.6. I did notice that the native event handler (as in, adding an onClick attribute to the element manually) doesn't work either, so evidently this is NOT a bug in jQuery.
I just wonder if anyone knows a way around it. I'm particularly interested in catching the change event from form elements after clearing the form.
In IE only, the change event on a select does not seem to fire if the change is made by typing on the keyboard instead of clicking with the mouse. However, when the focus leaves the field, the event fires.
I am trying to run a click event where and if statement is run to check for a certain image being clicked before running code. I set up this if in two ways:

Here is the link to my jquery game. Click on the black square to start, then a click on a grey square to see what I am talking about. The second function I mentioned is the current in the code.[URL]..
I have a 300x150 container div with a small inner div that has a image link button inside..When the user hovers over the button, it currently does .hide on the visible container div and .show on another div.However, I don't want the event to fired instantly, I would like for the animations to take affect 3000 milliseconds after their mouse has entered the button div to prevent the event from firing without the users intention.
I am working on a button that fires a few different fadeIn()'s upon clicking it but nothing is happening. I have same setup working just fine with another button, but this one doesnt do it.
I have a form element that is readonly. <input type="text" id="kfs_acct_1" readonly="false" /> This field is dynamically populated an making it readonly prevents users from changing the value in this field. The problem I have is users click on the field and try to delete it's value. They click in the field and hit their Backspace key. This takes them away from the page to the page from whence they came. Because of the way the form is set up, doing this makes them loose all the data in the form (the one with the readonly box). How can I prevent the Backspace key from fireing and taking the user away from this page? I've tried a few things, but apparently making a field readonly keeps some key events from being seen.
I'll start off by saying I'm a novice developer. I'm building an mvc application and recently started using the jquery hotness. I've set up a right hand nav and bound click events for collapsible panes. Inside one of those divs (action pane) I've bound click events which will open a modal dialog with a form. The form is submitted with $.post(). Then I've used $.get() to refresh several divs with the new content. Once that happens, all of my links begin to fire twice (collapsible panes and the links in the action pane) in ie8 and the latest firefox but not in chrome. I pulled out all the markup and js and put it on a static test site: [URL].

All i want to do is have the onclick fire when mouse clicks on the background only. Currently it fires when either element is clicking.( it fires through the foreground element)How to i prevent this while maintaining a child parent positioning relationship?
New to jQuery, I did many searches before posting. This is happening in both IE6 and Firefox 3.0.13. I've gotten the following script to work under strange circumstances (explained below first snippet).
