I'm trying to create a memory game using html ccs js and jquery.
The problem I'm having is that when I'm trying to show the div that states if the answer was correct, the div becomes visible like I want but it won't disappear.
I have tree conditions and the problem occurs with every one of them:
$(".wrong").show(function(){
$(this).hide(1000);
});
you can use setTimeout function to hide the element.
setTimeout(function () {
$(".wrong").hide()
}, 1000);

I'm trying to create a generic function that can be placed just once in my site and work across multiple pages, nice and lightweight.
I want to be able to make certain divs on the site fade-in when you reach 10px above them on the scroll.
I want to do this by simply adding the following attributes to my divs:
.fade-in-block
#specific-block-name
The idea is that I could go through the site, add this class and an ID, and the animation would work.
I almost have it working except for one thing, the scroll listening constantly continues to console.log after the function has been called. I don't like this as it feels like it's going to be constantly trying to apply the animation, which won't really be seen from the front-end but I feel the constant maths behind the scenes could slow stuff down.
Here is my jQuery:
$('body .fade-in-block').each(function(){
var block = '#'+$(this).attr('id');
console.log('Block class is = '+block);
var offset = $(block).offset().top;
var $w = $(window).scroll(function () {
if ($w.scrollTop() > offset - 10) {
console.log('reached block turn-on point for '+block);
$(block).removeAttr('id'); // remove the ID from the element so the script doesn't continue to find the element
// fade and rise animation here
}
});
});
And here is a JSFiddle. It works just fine, but once you hit the block you'll see it logs constantly every pixel scrolled.
I tried to remedy this by removing the selecting id from the element once the event has occurred, but it continues to run.
Scroll and resize events both have this problem and the solution is said to be debouncing. However, I've never actually gotten debouncing to work properly. Instead I typically create a sort of switch that is turned off once the scroll condition has activated. In your case, since you have multiple elements, you would need to assign a switch to each element.
$(window).on('scroll', function(){
$('.fade-in-block').each(function(){
var appear = $(this).attr('data-appeared');
if(!appear){
$(this).attr('data-appeared', true);
//do something to $(this)
}
})
})
Here I'm adding a data attribute after it has appeared and checking for it again once it has.
I'm trying at the moment to target multiple instances of the same div class (.overlay) - the basic idea I'm trying to execute is that each div contains a HTML5 video inside another wrapped div which on mouseenter reveals itself, sets the video timeline to 0 and plays, and on mouseout resets the video to 0 again.
The problem I'm having is that only the first item of my grid works at the moment with nothing happening on the rollover of the others. This is my Javascript:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.overlay').mouseenter(function(){
$('#testvideo').get(0).play();
}).mouseout(function() {
$('#testvideo').get(0).pause();
$('#testvideo').get(0).currentTime = 0;
})
});
I've also tried the following
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.overlay').mouseenter.each(function(){
$('#testvideo').get(0).play();
}).mouseout(function() {
$('#testvideo').get(0).pause();
$('#testvideo').get(0).currentTime = 0;
})
});
but that simply broke the functionality all together!
Here is a fiddle showing what should happen: http://jsfiddle.net/jameshenry/ejmfydfy/
The only difference between this and the actual site is that there are multiple grid items and thumbnails. I also don't want the behaviour to by asynchronous but rather individual - does anyone have any idea where I'm going wrong (I'm guessing my javascript!)
The problem is that you're using always $('#testvideo'), independent on the div you're entering the mouse. Since the HTML's id property must be unique, only the first element that you set the id testvideo will work the way you expect.
You should be using the video tag referenced by the div.overlay, or you could add a CSS class to the video tags, so you could use that class to find the video.
The code below will get the overlayed video, independent of which it is.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.overlay').hover(function() {
$(this).parent().find('video').get(0).play();
}, function() {
var video = $(this).parent().find('video').get(0);
video.pause();
video.currentTime = 0;
});
});
Take a look at your updated fiddle.
The first way you did it should work, the second one not. But, you shouldn't use an id like #testvideo if there are a lot of videos (one on each .overley element). Having multiple instances of the same id produce unexpected behaviuor, like "only working on the first item".
You should change your #testvideo with .testvideo and change your code to something like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.overlay').mouseenter(function(){
$(this).find('.testvideo').play();
}).mouseout(function() {
$(this).find('.testvideo').pause();
$(this).find('.testvideo').currentTime = 0;
})
});
I'm new to javascript so I'm struggling with the basics...
I'm using this delay to bring in a div but i want to fade the div in as part of this function (not just have the box appear)
function show() {
AB = document.getElementById('div_with_text');
AB.style.display = 'inline';
}
setTimeout("show()", 3000);
Can any one help with this?
I've tried adding things like:
$(function(){
$('#div_with_text').fadeIn('slow');
});
but I don't know the language well enough to get it to work...
Any help would be much appreciated!
Is your DIV hidden in the first place? If not, that is your problem. Your are trying to open an already opened door.
Your code is also incorrect, even if you hide the DIV, this will not work. It should have been setTimeout(show, 3000);
With the JavaScript code (setTimeout) you have provided, 3 seconds after the page loads, you are trying to display the DIV. Did you notice that the DIV was already there and never 'appeared' after 3 seconds as you expected?
Example - http://jsfiddle.net/BLPTq/2/ - just click run and see.
To make it work, hide the DIV first and then call the setTimeout or the jQuery method. Example - http://jsfiddle.net/zeXyG/ - just click run and see. Check the CSS display:none;
OR, if you don't want to hide it with CSS, just call hide() before calling fadeIn()
$('#div_with_text').hide().fadeIn('slow');
Example - http://jsfiddle.net/zeXyG/1/
As per your comment below. Add delay() to the call like shown below
$('#div_with_text').hide(); // this or use css to hide the div
$('#div_with_text').delay(2000).fadeIn('slow');
2 seconds after the page loads, this will hide the div and then fade in slowly. Look at this example carefully.
The fadeIn method will only work if you load the jQuery library on your page. Without that, the method will not work since it isn't part of native Javascript.
Once you have loaded jQuery, that method will work as your syntax is correct.
In my HTML a#navInnerMapR and a#navInnerMapL are contained within div#navTwo.
The following code is within a function. When called, I need the function to fadeOut any visible links in div#navTwo, pause for a moment, and then fadeIn a#navInnerMapR.
$('div#navTwo a').fadeOut(200, function() {
$('a#navInnerMapR').delay(100).fadeIn(200);
});
The code fades out the links but doesn't fade anything in. I thought that they delay would only start once the fadeOut finishes, however changing the delay value to 1000 makes it sometimes work but its very buggy. Thanks
UPDATE Here is a fiddle showing that the hidden link starts to be shown before the visible is hidden: http://jsfiddle.net/jamesbrighton/d9QKr/5/
UPDATE Apologies, my question doesnt include the full details of what I need to achieve. I simplified it as I thought I just had some sort of sytax issus that could be easily fixed.
div#navTwo actually contains 3 links. At any point (other than the delay before animations run) only 1 link is visible. I need to be able to call a function that will hide either of the other 2 links that are being shown, and then show a#navInnerMapR.
Different events will call this function, so either of the 2 links that arn't a#navInnerMapR may be visible. Thanks
UPDATE I think this fiddle illustrates the issue. Ive created 2 div.nav's to illustrate different states. Ive hidden different links with inline CSS in each one. JavaScript will be showing and hiding the links in my div repeatedly, so the same div will look like each example at different times.
Ive created 2 triggers to illustrate that different events will need to call the function. When you click on a trigger you can see the issue with both examples. The visible divs are not hidden before the a.one is shown. Thanks for your patience!
http://jsfiddle.net/jamesbrighton/dYvMS/24/
Interesting point, if I change $('.nav a.one').fadeIn(1000); to an alert, the alert fires multiple times! No idea why this would be the case!
Edit: Updated answer based on your below comment,
Yes this works as I need, but im not sure it will work for my actual
page. Sorry for my question not being detailed enough. The code
example I gave is simplified. In the actual page their are 3 links
within div#navTwo, at any time only one of them will be visible. I
need to be able to call a function that hides any links and shows a
specific one, but either one of the other 2 links in div#navTwo may be
visible. Thanks
DEMO
HTML: Added class to all links inside navTwo
<div id="navTwo">
Right
Left
Middle
Upper
Lower
</div>
JS:
$('.links').click(function() {
showHide($(this));
});
function showHide($this) {
$this.fadeOut(1000, function() {
$('#navTwo a').not($this).delay(1000).fadeIn(1000);
});
}
I think I understood what you need. Try below DEMO and let me know if that is what you want,
DEMO
$('#navInnerMapR').click(function() {
runMeR($(this));
});
$('#navInnerMapL').click(function() {
runMeL($(this));
});
function runMeR($this) {
$this.fadeOut(1000, function() {
$('a#navInnerMapL').delay(1000).fadeIn(1000);
});
}
function runMeL($this) {
$this.fadeOut(1000, function() {
$('a#navInnerMapR').delay(1000).fadeIn(1000);
});
}
As you said, You need the function to fadeOut any visible links in div#navTwo, pause for a moment, and then fadeIn a#navInnerMapR (not other links, only a#navInnerMapR).
$('#navTwo a').click(function(e) {
$(this).parent().children().each(function(i){
$(this).fadeOut('slow', function(){
$('a#navInnerMapR').delay(1000).fadeIn(1000);
});
});
});
A fiddle is here.
Thought I'd post here. My first hour on jQuery, actually first programing ever done. Would love to learn whats not right and how it could be better.
$(function() {
function hide_me()
//A place to specify which elements you want hidden, on page load.
{
$("li.credentials").hide();
}
function first_bow()
//The div right_column takes a bow on initial load.
{
$("div#right-column").show("drop");
}
function bigpeek()
//The third column toggles in/out. All elements under div right_column.
{
$("div#right-column").toggle("drop", "fast");
}
function smallpeek()
//Smaller snippets like credentials or user assignment flying in/out.
{
$("li.credentials").toggle("drop", "fast");
}
$(document).ready(function() {
$("*").ready(hide_me);
$("*").ready(first_bow);
$(".btn-new-email").click(bigpeek);
$(".button").click(smallpeek);
$(".icon-delete").mouseover(function() {
$(this).effect("bounce", "fast");
});
});
});
The best thing to learn about programming is how to effectively re-use code. In your code, you have set up some functions that you yourself claim will do a bunch of the same thing. So instead, you could make it better by only writing code to do the repeated task once.
For one example, instead of creating a function where you place a bunch of things that need to be hidden, I would add a class to the elements that should be hidden, and then hide all those elements:
function hide_me()
//Hides anything with the "hide-me-onload" class
{
$(".hide-me-onload").hide();
}
$(function () {
...
}
is the same as
$(document).ready(function() {
...
}
So you can move the method calls from inside your $(document).ready() to be inside your $(function(){}). Also try to use IDs instead of class names wherever possible. Something like this will go through the entire DOM to look for an element
$(".item")
Be more specific
$("#itemID") // use IDs instead of Classes
//If you have to use class name then you can speed up the selector by adding the element tag before it
$("div.item")
Using $("*").ready() within $(document).ready() is redundant... you already know using all of the elements are ready! Also, in general using the universal selector $('*') is very inefficient.
So, the first two lines of your $(document).ready() can just be:
hide_me();
first_bow();
Other than that and a couple of issues with organization and nomenclature you're off to a great start, keep it up!
