var crossButton = document.getElementById('closeCart');
// Displaying Menu Cart
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
toggler.addEventListener('click', toggleCart);
crossButton.addEventListener('click',closeCart);
function toggleCart(){
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayed');
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayedBgColor');
}
function closeCart(){
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayed');
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayedBgColor');

Well you can just click EventListener to the elements opening outside the sideCart.... ! Btw one question here where you want to get clicked.... you just need to add click event listener outside of this cart thing.. and you are pretty much good to go... !

if (cartWrapper.hasClass("menuDisplayed")) {
$("body").on("click", function() {
closeCart();
});
cartWrapper.on("click", function(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
});
});

Hope this Code will help you.
<script>
let sidebar = document.getElementById('sidebar-wrapper');
let navbarTogglerButton = document.getElementById('toggler-button');
window.document.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
let clickedArea = e.path[e.path.length-6]
if ( clickedArea == sidebar || e.path[0] == navbarTogglerButton) {
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayed');
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayedBgColor');
}
else {
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayed');
cartWrapper.classList.toggle('menuDisplayedBgColor');
}
});
</script>

Nav Bar not Hiding with react state

I have two navbars in my site. One is only displayed on small screens with a media query which is the one I am having issues with. I have a react context that controls the visibility of both navs with the same boolean variable when a slideshow is displayed. When the slide show is displayed I want to hide the navs. The large nav has this functionality, but the small nav never shows. Before adding this react context the navbar would display as normal but now it is never displayed.
small navbar render:
render() {
return (
<div className="container-fluid">
<div id="initialImage">
<div className="d-fixed d-md-none">
<DisplayContext.Consumer>
{(context) =>
context.state.isNavVisibile ? (
<nav className="navbar bg-dark navbar-dark fixed-top">
<button
className="navbar-toggler"
type="button"
data-toggle="collapse"
data-target="#navbarToggleContent"
aria-controls="navbarToggleContent"
aria-expanded="false"
aria-label="Toggle navigation"
>
<span></span>
<span></span>
<span></span>
</button>
<div
className="collapse navbar-collapse"
id="navbarToggleContent"
>
<ul className="navbar-nav">
<li className="nav-item">
<a
className="nav-link text-white font-weight-bold"
href="#vintage"
>
Shop Vintage
</a>
</li>
<li className="nav-item">
<a
className="nav-link text-white font-weight-bold"
href="#e"
>
Shop Euiubi
</a>
</li>
<li className="nav-item">
<a
className="nav-link text-white font-weight-bold"
href="#about"
>
A Message from the Creator
</a>
</li>
<li className="nav-item">
<a
className="nav-link text-white font-weight-bold"
href="#"
>
Contact
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
) : null
}
</DisplayContext.Consumer>
</div>
<Navigation />
<div id="titles" className="clearfix greeting"></div>
<ScrollAnimation />
</div>
</div>
);
}
}
Display Context:
export const DisplayContext = createContext();
export class ContextProvider extends Component {
state = {
isNavVisible: true,
};
render() {
return (
<DisplayContext.Provider
value={{
state: this.state,
hideNav: () =>
this.setState({ isNavVisible: !this.state.isNavVisible }),
}}
>
{this.props.children}
</DisplayContext.Provider>
);
}
}
on click handler to open and close slideshow
toggleSlideVisibility = () => {
const dcontext = this.context;
dcontext.hideNav();
this.setState({ slidesVisible: !this.state.slidesVisible });
};

Using an anchor tag to display a modal in Vue.js

I'm new to Vue.js I'm trying to make an anchor tag in my navbar component(a link), when clicked display a modal component, but i'm not able to.
I only see solutions for buttons which uses the attribute data target, that isnt available as an attribute on the anchor tag.
I'm also not trying to route to the LoginModal.vue component, what am i doing wrong and who do i go about it ?
Navbar.Vue
<template>
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md py-3">
<div class="container">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="/"></a>
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navlinks" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"><i class="fas fa-bars" style="color: #283990; font-size:28px;"></i></span>
</button>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navlinks">

<script>
export default {
name: 'Navbar',
data () {
return {
msg: 'Log in'
}
}
}
</script>

Index.Js in my router folder.NB i dont want to route the LoginModal component. whats the best practice.
import Vue from 'vue'
import Router from 'vue-router'
import Home from '#/components/Home.vue';
import LoginModal from '#/components/Login-Signup/LoginModal.vue';
Vue.use(Router)
export default new Router({
routes: [
//route records
{ //default route
path: '/',
name: 'Home',
component: Home
},
{
path: '/login',
name: 'LoginModal',
component: LoginModal
},
{
path: '/signup',
name: 'Signup',
component: LoginModal
}
]
})

I saw your code, so you want to show your modal, right??
best solution is using child component, so you don't need define a new route in vue router, just import LoginModal.Vue to Navbar.Vue, then make it on your template and use v-if to show and hide your modal with #click event
here it is:
<template>
<div>
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md py-3">
<div class="container">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="/"></a>
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navlinks" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"><i class="fas fa-bars" style="color: #283990; font-size:28px;"></i></span>
</button>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navlinks">
<ul class="navbar-nav ml-auto">
<li class="nav-item mx-4">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">About Us</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item mx-4">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">FAQ</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item mx-4">
<!-- <router-link class="nav-link login" to='/login'>{{msg}}</router-link> -->
<a class="nav-link login" href="/login" #click="showLogin">Log in</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item mx-3">
<a id="jn" class="nav-link btn btn-primary border-0 px-5 py-2 joinbutton" href="/signup">Join</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</nav>
<!-- style your modal and hide it with data property -->
<login-modal v-if="login"/>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import LoginModal from '#/components/Login-Signup/LoginModal';
export default {
name: 'Navbar',
components: { LoginModal },
data () {
return {
msg: 'Log in',
login: false,
}
},
methods: {
showLogin(e) {
// disable anchor tag
e.preventDefault();
this.login = true;
}
}
}
</script>
Finally, remember it's better if you use router-link instead of a tag in your vue files!
see more references in:
https://router.vuejs.org/api/#router-link
Also if you want to make professional modals with extra features, try vue-modal too.
I hope can help...

Javascript onmouseover and onmouseout getting called at the same time

I'm trying to add a hover effect for my sidebar. When the user hovers on the sidebar it should call the onmouseover function and when the user hovers out of the sidebar it should call the onmouseout function.
However, I noticed that both functions are being called at the same time. Even if the user is hovering over the sidebar and clicks on the dropdown and scrolls through the individual list items within the sidebar, the onmouseout function is being called and the onmouseover.
How do I only call the onmouseover function when it is inside the sidebar only ?

Bootstrap closed.bs.alert doesnt fire when alert is being dynamically created

I have a page where I let the user search for information, and it displays an alert at the top stating that he is searching. He is then shown a filtered result. If he clicks the alert dismiss button, the main page is to be reloaded.
However I find that the dismissed event closed.bs.alert is never fired.
My javascript code:
$("document").ready(function () {
$('body').on('click', '#mainsearch', function (event) {
url = window.location.href;
console.log('Clicked');
SearchPatients();
});
$('body').on('closed.bs.alert', "#srpatalert", function () {
console.log('Closed alert');
window.location.href = "/appointments/patients";
});
$(function () {
$('#srpatalert').on('closed.bs.alert', function () {
console.log('Closed alert');
window.location.href = "/appointments/patients";
});
});
});
function SearchPatients() {
var srmsgpre = `
<div id="srpatalert" class="mr-3 alert alert-info alert-dismissible fade show" role="alert">
<strong>Searching For`;
var srmcl = ' </strong>';
var srmsgpost = `
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
`;
var breadcrumb = `
<li class="breadcrumb-item">
Home
</li>
<li class="breadcrumb-item">
Patients
</li>
<li class="breadcrumb-item active" aria-current="page">Search results</li>`;
var srstr = $("#searchterm").val();
sralmsg = srmsgpre + 'Patients:' + srmcl + srstr + srmsgpost;
$('#presearch').html(sralmsg);
return true;
}

As you can see above, I tried two different approaches. I'm not able to get the closed.bs.alert event to fire.

Replace
$(function () {
$('#srpatalert').on('closed.bs.alert', function () {
console.log('Closed alert');
window.location.href = "/appointments/patients";
});
});
with
$('#navbar').on('close.bs.alert', '#srpatalert', function () {
console.log('Closed alert');
window.location.href = "/appointments/patients";
});
Notice that, besides delegating the event to #navbar, I also changed the event itself (from closed.bs.alert to close.bs.alert) as closed.bs.alert doesn't seem to fire in this example - I don't know why and, since it's working with close.bs.alert, I didn't investigate further.
Here's a working example:
$("document").ready(function() {
$('body').on('click', '#mainsearch', function(event) {
url = window.location.href;
console.log('Clicked');
SearchPatients();
});
$('#navbar').on('close.bs.alert', "#srpatalert", function() {
console.log('Closed alert');
});
// don't mind next line, it's just for SO:
$(document).on('click', 'a', e => e.preventDefault())
});
function makeAlert(category, term) {
return $('<div />', {
id:'srpatalert',
class:'mr-3 alert alert-info alert-dismissible fade show',
role: 'alert'
}).append($('<strong />',{text:'Searching For ' + category + ': '}))
.append($('<span />', {text: term}))
.append($('<button />', {
type:'button',
class:'close',
'data-dismiss':'alert',
'aria-label':'Close',
html: $('<span />',{
'aria-hidden':true,
html:'×'
})
}))
}
function SearchPatients() {
sralmsg = makeAlert('Patients', $("#searchterm").val());
$('#presearch').html(sralmsg);
return true;
}

As discussed in comments on the accepted answer above, the closed event does not properly bubble even if you use a delegated event and attach the handler to parent. A bit of discussion on this here.
Also, it's important to note that there is a distinct difference between close and closed, which is that the latter fires after the alert has been removed. In some applications this difference may be significant, such as when you need to resize other elements based on changes to the dom.
With that in mind, if you absolutely need to use the closed event, you must dynamically add your handler anytime the alert is created. This could be done in your example code immediately after:
$('#presearch').html(sralmsg);
You could add your handler so it would look like this:
$('#presearch').html(sralmsg);
$('#srpatalert').off().on('closed.bs.alert', function () {
console.log('Closed alert');
window.location.href = "/appointments/patients";
});
