calling a JS function without any event in the div

I have a page which contains the following code.
<style>
.objects {display: inline-table; width: 180px; height: 180px; border-radius: 50%; transition: transform .4s;}
.objects:hover { transform: scale(1.1); }
.objects:after {content: ""; position: absolute; top: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; width:180px; height: 180px; z-index: -1; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.4);}
#media screen and (max-width: 500px) {
.objects, .objects:after { width: 20vw; height: 20vw;}
}
.objects p { text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; display: table-cell; visibility: hidden; color: black; z-index: 100; position: relative;}
#object1{background-color: brown;}
#object2{background-color: red;}
#object3{background-color: yellow;}
#object4{background-color: blue;}
#object5{background-color: green;}
#object6{background-color: black;}
</style>
<div style="display: flex; justify-content: space-around;margin-top:50px;margin-bottom:100px;">
<div id="object1" class="objects" onmouseover="nomeIn(this)" onmouseout="nomeOut(this)" >
<p>brick brown</p>
</div>
<div id="object2" class="objects" onmouseover="nomeIn(this)" onmouseout="nomeOut(this)" >
<p>brick red</p>
</div>
<div id="object3" class="objects" onmouseover="nomeIn(this)" onmouseout="nomeOut(this)">
<p>brick melange</p>
</div>
</div>
<script>
function nomeIn(object){
let selettore = "#" + object.id + " p";
document.querySelector(selettore).style.visibility = "visible";
}
function nomeOut(object){
let selettore = "#" + object.id + " p";
document.querySelector(selettore).style.visibility = "hidden";
}
</script>
This page works properly, as you can see in the following JSFiddle:
However, for some reasons, one of the plugins I have in my site keeps erasing all the events from the html code, so I can't use "onmouseover" and "onmouseout".
Without these events in the html, I can't call the function and I should write a different JS code, which would be similar to this:
document.querySelector(".objects").onmouseover = function nomeIn(){
let selector = "#" + this.id + " p";
document.querySelector(selector).style.visibility = "visible";
}
document.querySelector(".objects").onmouseout = function nomeOut(){
let selector = "#" + this.id + " p";
document.querySelector(selector).style.visibility = "hidden";
}
However, in this case, the mouseover would work only with the first circular element (the text would appear only in the first circle): JSFiddle
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your help.

Because in the second code, you are using document.querySelector to select the .objects divs. This function always return the first element encountered. To solve this, you could use the document.querySelectorAll function and iterate through each element:
[ ...document.querySelectorAll(".objects") ].forEach(element => {
element.onmouseover = function () {
let selector = "#" + this.id + " p";
document.querySelector(selector).style.visibility = "visible";
}
element.onmouseout = function () {
let selector = "#" + this.id + " p";
document.querySelector(selector).style.visibility = "hidden";
}
});

Changing images with right or left arrow key

I've built this gallery
https://jsfiddle.net/ramamamagagaulala/do4yLxcz/
let images = document.querySelectorAll('.work-item');
let best = document.querySelector('.work-modal');
let main = document.querySelector('.work-modal__item');
console.log(images)
let closeButton = document.getElementById("closee");
images.forEach(function(ref) {
ref.addEventListener('click', function(){
let newImage = this.getElementsByTagName('img')[0].src;
best.classList.add('work-modal--show');
main.style.backgroundImage = `url( ${newImage} )`;
})
})
closeButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
best.classList.remove('work-modal--show');
});
basically, it works like this:
you click an item.
JavaScript checks what IMG this item contains.
a modal window opens up.
then the IMG that is associated with the item, is going to be displayed as the background image of this modal.
So far so good, however, I would like to build a function so I can press the arrow keys on my keyboard and the next image is going to be displayed.
What I've tried is to select the IMG of the nextSibling while clicking. Then I have used this variable to set up the background image of the modal window. But this only worked once.
Any ideas what to try next?

I would suggest have list of images urls in an array in .js file, and then you show one modal, click right/left and just change img src value to next/previous array element, untill get to either end of array.

There are three things we need to do for this problem
Storing the image source in an array
Keep track of the position of the image index
Add an event listener to track the keypress for next & prev button on your keyboard
let images = document.querySelectorAll('.work-item');
let best = document.querySelector('.work-modal');
let main = document.querySelector('.work-modal__item');
let closeButton = document.getElementById("closee");
let currentIndex = -1;
let imgSrc = [];
images.forEach(function(ref,index) {
imgSrc.push(ref.children[0].getAttribute("src"));
ref.addEventListener('click', function(){
let newImage = this.getElementsByTagName('img')[0].src;
best.classList.add('work-modal--show');
main.style.backgroundImage = `url( ${newImage} )`;
currentIndex = index
});
})
closeButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
best.classList.remove('work-modal--show');
});
let doc = document.getElementById("work");
window.addEventListener("keydown", event => {
if(event.keyCode === 39){
// next event
if(currentIndex < imgSrc.length -1 ){
main.style.backgroundImage = `url( ${imgSrc[currentIndex+1]} )`;
currentIndex=currentIndex+1;
} else {
alert("Reached last image")
}
} else if(event.keyCode === 37){
// prev event
if(currentIndex > 0){
main.style.backgroundImage = `url( ${imgSrc[currentIndex-1]} )`;
currentIndex=currentIndex-1;
} else {
alert("Reached first image")
}
}

get file object from called window javascript

I am trying to open a window and process the file in the calling JavaScript. I can pass the file name using localStorage but if I return the file I can't get it right.
I can't use this solution due to restrictions of the system I am calling the JavaScript from:
var fileSelector = document.createElement('input');
fileSelector.setAttribute('type', 'file');
fileSelector.click();
Can a file object be passed using localStorage or should I use another method?
My code is:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<script language="JavaScript">
function testInjectScript2(){
try {
var myhtmltext =
'<input type="file" id="uploadInput3" name=\"files[]" onchange=\'localStorage.setItem("myfile",document.getElementById("uploadInput3").files[0]);\' multiple />';
console.log("myhtmltext="+myhtmltext);
var newWin2 = window.open('',"_blank", "location=200,status=1,scrollbars=1, width=500,height=200");
newWin2.document.body.innerHTML = myhtmltext;
newWin2.addEventListener("unload", function (e) {
if(localStorage.getItem("myfile")) {
var f = localStorage.getItem("myfile");
alert ('in function.f='+f);
alert ('in function.f.name='+(f).name);
localStorage.removeItem("myfile");
}
});
} catch (err) {
alert(err);
}
}
</script>
<body>
<input type="button" text="testInjectScript2" onclick="testInjectScript2()" value="testInjectScript2" />
</body>
</html>

First of all, welcome to SO. If I get you right, you want to upload a file using a new window and get that file using localStorage onto your main page. This is a possible solution. However, please do also note that the maximum size of the localStorage can vary depending on the user-agent (more information here). Therefore it is not recommend to use this method. If you really want to do this, please have a look at the first snippet.
var read = document.getElementById("read-value"), open_win = document.getElementById("open-win"), win, p = document.getElementById("file-set");
open_win.addEventListener("click", function(){
win = window.open("", "", "width=200,height=100");
win.document.write(
'<input id="file-input" type="file"/>' +
'<script>' +
'var input = document.getElementById("file-input");' +
'input.addEventListener("change", function(){window.localStorage.setItem("file", input.files[0]);})'+
'<\/script>'
);
})
read.addEventListener("click", function(){
var file = window.localStorage.getItem("file");
if(file){
p.innerText = "file is set";
}else{
p.innerText = "file is not set";
}
})
<button id="open-win">Open window</button>
<br><br>
<!-- Check if file is set in localStorage -->
<button id="read-value">Check</button>
<p id="file-set" style="margin: 10px 0; font-family: monospace"></p>
<i style="display: block; margin-top: 20px">Note: This only works locally as SO snippets lack the 'allow same origin' flag. i.e. just copy the html and js into a local file to use it.</i>
However, why not use a more elegant solution:
Simply using a modal. When the input value changes you can simply close the modal and get the file value without all the hassle of a localStorage.
// Get the modal, open button and close button
var modal = document.getElementById('modal'),
btn = document.getElementById("open-modal"),
span = document.getElementById("close"),
input = document.getElementById("file-input"),
label = document.getElementById("input-label"), file;
// When the user clicks the button, open the modal
btn.addEventListener("click", function() {
modal.style.display = "block";
})
// When the user clicks on <span> (x), close the modal
span.addEventListener("click", function() {
modal.style.display = "none";
})
input.addEventListener("change", function(){
file = input.files[0];
modal.style.display = "none";
//Change value of the label for nice styling ;)
label.innerHTML = input.files[0].name;
//do something with your value
})
// When the user clicks anywhere outside of the modal, close it
window.addEventListener("click", function(event) {
if (event.target == modal) {
modal.style.display = "none";
}
})
.modal {
display: none; /* Hidden by default */
position: fixed; /* Stay in place */

/* Modal Content */

font-weight: bold;
}
.close:hover,
.close:focus {

z-index not working on Safari when manipulating it using Javascript

I am making a website that has multiple layers to it, which is brought back and forth by manipulating the z-index in Javascript through event reactions (like onclick). I have a navigation bar which has a large z-index value compared to every other element as I would like it to be at the very front regardless of anything. However, when run on Safari, the nav bar disappears from the get go, while it works fine on Google Chrome and FireFox.
I have included the css code and javascript code that dictates this role:
JAVASCRIPT:
//Global variables representing DOM elements
var introTitleElem = document.getElementById('introduction-title');
var resumeElem = document.getElementById('resume-container');
var introElem = document.getElementById('intro-content');
var eduElem = document.getElementById('edu-content');
//Layer tracker (for transition effect)
var prev = introElem;
var prevButton = "";
//Function that actually changes the layers
function changeLayer(layer, button) {
if (layer === prev) return;
introTitleElem.style.opacity = "0";
prev.style.zIndex = "40";
layer.style.zIndex = "50";
layer.style.cssText = "opacity: 1; transition: opacity 0.5s";
prev.style.zIndex = "5";
prev.style.opacity = "0";
prev = layer;
if (prevButton !== "") prevButton.style.textDecoration = "none";
button.style.textDecoration = "underline";
prevButton = button;
}
//Manages events triggered by name button toggle
function revealResume() {
introTitleElem.style.zIndex = "0";
resumeElem.style.zIndex = "10";
resumeElem.style.opacity = "1";
introElem.style.opacity = "1";
resumeElem.style.transition = "opacity 0.7s";
introElem.style.transition = "opacity 0.7s";
}
document.getElementById("name-title").addEventListener("click", revealResume);
//Manage z-index of different components of the resume and reveal them accordingly
$('#nav-education').click(function () {
onEducation = true;
changeLayer(eduElem, this);
});
CSS (SASS):
/*NAVIGATION STYLING*/
#fixed-nav {
align-self: flex-start;
overflow-x: hidden;
float: right;
z-index: 9999 !important;
display: flex;
margin: 1em;
li {
margin: 0.6em;
font: {
family: $font-plex-sans-condensed;
size: 0.8em;
}
text-align: center;
color: $lightest-grey;
transition: color 0.3s;
&:hover {
cursor: pointer;
color: $dark-grey;
transition: color 0.3s;
}
}
}
/*OVERALL DIV FORMATTING*/
.format-div {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
display: flex;
position: absolute;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
flex-direction: column;
opacity: 0;
}
/*EDUCATION CONTENT STYLING*/
#edu-content {
background-color: $red-1;
}
HTML:
<div id="resume-container">
<ul id="fixed-nav">
<li id="nav-education">education.</li>
<li id="nav-experiences">experiences.</li>
<li id="nav-skills">skills.</li>
<li id="nav-projects">projects.</li>
<li id="nav-additional">additional.</li>
<li id="nav-contact">contact.</li>
</ul>
<div id="intro-content" class="format-div">
<h1 class="type-effect">
<h1>I'm Daniel <b>(Sang Don)</b> Joo</h1>
<span class="blinking-cursor">|</span>
</h1>
</div>
<div id="edu-content" class="format-div">
<h1>education</h1>
</div>
Sorry about the large amount of code but I'm really unsure of where this problem is rooted. Cheers!

it has to be the position feature of the elements so that it can work
wrong example ( not working )
.className { z-index: 99999 !important; }
correct example ( it work )
.className { position: 'relative'; z-index: 99999 !important; }
.className { position: 'absolute'; z-index: 99999 !important; }
etc..
good luck :)

Can not get <div> to open page using javascript

I am trying to find out why my button will not load the page correctly using the javascript. I can't figure out if its CSS or a Javascript error and I've been staring at it to long for my mind to get round it. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Below is the Javascript code:-
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function show_details(thisId) {
var deets = (thisId.id);
el = document.getElementById("overlay");
el.style.display = (el.style.display == "block") ? "none" : "block";
el = document.getElementById("events");
el.style.display = (el.style.display == "block") ? "none" : "block";
var hr = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url "Scripts/bookings.php";
var vars = "deets="+deets;
hr.open("POST", url, true);
hr.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
hr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if(hr.readyState == 4 && hr.status == 200) {
var return_data = hr.responseText;
document.getElementById("events").innerHTML = return_data;
}
}
hr.send(vars)
document.getElementById("events").innerHTML = "processing...";
}
</script>
The CSS Sets:
body
{
height:100%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#overlay
{
display:none;
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
width: 100%;
height:100%;
z-index:2000;
background: #000;
opacity: .9;
}
#events
{
display: none;
width:500px;
border:4px solid #9C9;
padding: 15 px;
z-index:3000;
margin-top: 100px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-left:auto;
background-color: #FFF;
height:400px;
overflow:scroll;
}
#eventControl
{
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 30px;
z-index: 3000;
}
#eventBody
{
display: block;
width: 100%;
z-index:3000;
}
The Call to Action Button:
<input name='$date' type='submit' value='Details' id='$date' onClick='javascript:show_details(this);'>
$date variable is set from the users choice selection. I can post more code but I think the fault lies in the code provided. Please do ask if you think otherwise.

Change
var url "Scripts/bookings.php";
to
var url = "Scripts/bookings.php";
Also, your el variable is defined as a property of the function, i'd recommend using var el. Also use separate variables for your document.getElementById. Just to keep the next developer sane.
And you're calling document.getElementById("events"); twice, just use the same variable the second time (in the callback function)
