Any Need For AddEventListener() And AttachEvent() At All?
Nov 16, 2006Today I have been testing the event models from Netscape 4.8 and IE 4
to the current crop of browsers. I'd like to write a small event
library similar in purpose to the Yahoo! UI event library but with less
features and code. The Yahoo! event library is one of the best
libraries in YUI but it still seems to me to have some confused
code...that or I'm still confused.
The Yahoo! UI library focuses on using addEventListener and
attachEvent. However, due to the click and dblclick bugs in Safari a
long legacy event workaround is included to use a Netscape4-type event
model for Safari. Something like this
var listeners = [function(event){}, function(event){}];
document.getElementById('blue').onmouseover = function(event) {
for (var i=0; i<listeners.length; i++) {
listeners[i](event);
}
};
With this above example, multiple handler functions can be fired for a
single event. I imagine that this is an old trick that has been around
for a long time, yes?
With all the new browsers I tested with this legacy workaround, the
listener handlers can use event.stopPropogation() or
event.cancelBubble=true and they work as desired. The handler functions
can also use event.preventDefault() and event.returnValue=false and
they too work. These seem to work because the event object passed to
the handlers is a modern event object and not one from Netscape4.
My question is, if Safari needs this legacy workaround, and the legacy
workaround seems to work in all the browsers that have addEventListener
or attachEvent, then why bother with the addEventListener and
attachEvent functions at all? Why not just use the legacy way for all
browsers and all type of events.?
Compatibility - AttachEvent Vs AddEventListener Vs Other?
Mar 17, 2003As I understand it so far:
element.attachEvent()
IE 5+ for PC
element.addEventListener()
Gecko, KHTML
element.event
NS3+, IE4+, dunno about opera or others
Since I'm only concerned with attaching a single event and don't care about bubbling/capturing, am I best off not using the old style of event registering to assure maxium compatibility?
JQuery :: Using Trigger Event To Automatically Register Click?
Aug 11, 2011I have a problem with the trigger event. I'm using a function that opens a curtain by clicking an image. I wish to use the trigger event to automatically register a click on that image so the curtain opens automatically. I've been messing with it and have had it work successfully in Chrome but not FF.
Here is the initial code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$curtainopen = false;
$(".rope").click(function(){
$(this).blur();
if ($curtainopen == false){
$(this).stop().animate({top: '0px' }, {
queue:false, duration:350, easing:'easeOutBounce'});
$(".leftcurtain").stop().animate({width:'60px'}, 2000 );
$(".rightcurtain").stop().animate({width:'60px'},2000 );
$curtainopen = true;
}else{
$(this).stop().animate({top: '-40px' }, {
queue:false, duration:350, easing:'easeOutBounce'});
$(".leftcurtain").stop().animate({width:'50%'}, 2000 );
$(".rightcurtain").stop().animate({width:'51%'}, 2000 );
$curtainopen = false;
} return false;
});});

Mar 14, 2010I might register an event like this:

AddEventListener() For CtrlEnter Event
Feb 11, 2007Task: I would like to implement a CtrlEnter event that would work on both IE and FF.
My approach: use addEventListener() and attachEvent() to capture the event then trigger a function to check for CtrlEnter:
if (oTarea.addEventListener) {
oTarea.addEventListener('keyup', function() {checkCtrlEnter(event);}, false);
}
else if (oTarea.attachEvent) {
oTarea.attachEvent('onkeyup', function() {checkCtrlEnter(event);});
}
function checkCtrlEnter(e) {
if (e.ctrlKey && e.keyCode == 13) {
// do something
}
return false;
}
Click Event In SELECT Element
Jul 23, 2005Does someone can help me with the following problem?
I have a SELECT form tag, with some OPTIONS elements. I am using the
following code to detect a click in the SELECT.
....
document.onclick = fnc_document_click
....
function fnc_document_click(){
if(window.event.srcElement.id == "my_lst"){
......
}
}
How can I avoid the "if" if user click in a area of SELECT out of the
options elements? (The SELECT object is higher than the the goups of
OPTIONS its contains)
In other words, how can detect if the click Iinside the SELECT element)
happens in a OPTION element or not?

JQuery :: Triggering Click Event On Element Creation
May 28, 2010I have a function where I want to add a sibling element to each of the elements and trigger a click on each of them right away. Here's what I have so far:
$(function(){
$('#articles').delegate('.click-link','click',function(){
$(this).toggle(
function(){
alert('toggle one');
},
function(){
alert('toggle two');
});
});
$('.toggle').each(function(){
$(this).after('<span class="click-link">Hide</span>');
$(this).next().trigger('click');
});
});
For some reason the toggle doesn't get triggered. If I put something in the function right before the toggle, it fires on page ready. However, the toggle doesn't fire. toggleClass does, though. What can be causing this?
JQuery :: Event.target - Click Anchor As Matched Element
Jun 1, 2010consider the following code;
$("#content").click(function(event)
{
if($(event.target).is('a'))
{
$(this).//do something
}
}
I'm binding a click event to a div so that I can see whether is was the div or some element inside the div that has been clicked. When the if() in my code evaluates to true $(this) is still equal to $("#content") whereas I'd like to have the clicked anchor as matched element. How would I do this?
JQuery :: Apply Click Event To User Created Element?
Dec 2, 2010Code:
This is a trimmed down version of my problem, '.myElement' gets duplicated on double click. In '.myElement' is content and a close button that when clicked removes itself.
The problem is "newly" created elements don't get the the dblclick or the child 'a.close' click events. i know i can double the events and re apply after the element is created but in my real version there is WAY more going on in each of these events and i don't want to create all that redundant code. i guess i can pull all the actions out into functions and bind after creation but even that is a little messy, is there an apply events feature in jQuery or something?

JQuery :: When New Element Is Prepended - Click Event Doesn't Work On It And Actions
Feb 1, 2011I have a js(using jQuery lib) file where all events and following actions(functions) are written. For one of such events there is a function that prepends one more similar element from which prepending was called:
$("#id1").click(function(){
$(...).before("<div id='id1'></div>");

so that when I will click to just prepended element one more element should be prepended and so on.The problem is that when new element is prepended, click event doesn't work on it. jQuery doesn't recognize it, like doesn't see it.

JQuery :: Populating Dynamically Created Input Element Values Using Datepicker And .live Event Handler
Nov 15, 2010I have a table with a date field in each row:
The table, and the input id element, are dynamically created from database records and I use jQuery live to initialize the datepicker for each field, like so:
The idea is that when I click in the input field, the datepicker pops up and allows the user to input a date. While the date shows in the input field in the table, the value attribute of the input field is empty. I can't use the getDate() method on the datepicker, since I can't programmatically connect the datepicker element in any particular row with the input element in that row. I tried the onClose method shown below, but that doesn't work either. Has anyone done this successfully?

JQuery :: Stopping A Click Event With Another Click Event?
Nov 23, 2010I would like to create a plugin that I can put before a click event on a button. The click event should occur if the user's time on the page hasn't expired. The plugin should check the user's time, and then stop the click event if the time has expired. With the plugin, I'm essentially putting two click events on the same button, as I need to check the expiration when the button is clicked. The plugin is working on my test page, but I'm afraid that this is contingent on an arbitrary ordering of the click events by jQuery. If I have my click event chained after my plugin, can I be assured that the plugin would always stop the click event if the time is expired? Or could jQuery execute the click event before the time gets checked?
(function( $ ){
$.fn.checkExpiration = function(
$this = $(this);
return this.each(function(){3
