I was wondering if there is any way to dynamically change the text of a radio label text.
And perhaps wrap the label text into a <span> tag, so I could further style it.
I've got the following radio button html:
<div class="radio-select" data-value="books-taxonomy">
<input class="radio-input" type="radio" id="form-books-tax" name="bundle" value="books-taxonomy" checked="checked">
<label class="radio-label" for="form-books-tax">CHANGE THIS LABEL TEXT</label>
</div>
This is coming directly from a plugin and unfortunately I can't just edit the html of this file.
Is there any way to achieve this? Including Jquery solution?
Do not wrap a div by span instead use another div, you can use wrap(), also you can replace label text like this:
$('.radio-select').wrap('<div class="container"></div>').find('label').text('bingo!').attr('data', 'books-taxonomy');
.container {
background: #5eba7d;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="radio-select" data-value="books-taxonomy">
<input class="radio-input" type="radio" id="form-books-tax" name="bundle" value="books-taxonomy" checked="checked">
<label class="radio-label" for="form-books-tax">CHANGE THIS LABEL TEXT</label>
</div>
Edit: If you want to wrap text inside label you can use wrapInner():
$('.radio-select label').wrapInner('<span></span>').text('bingo!')
Edit 2: Also based on your comment, with what you tried, you can do:
$('label[for=form-books-tax]').wrapInner('<span></span>').text('bingo!');
You can change the exact label name based on the for attribute in the label. Here is the solution provided. If needed you can replace the for attribute for dynamic replacing.
Question:
<div class="radio-select" data-value="books-taxonomy">
<input class="radio-input" type="radio" id="form-books-tax" name="bundle" value="books-taxonomy" checked="checked">
<label class="radio-label" for="form-books-tax">CHANGE THIS LABEL TEXT</label>
</div>
O/P:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#form-books-tax').next('label').attr("for", 'form-books-tax').text('Replace Your New Name Here');
});

I'm trying to target the content and making the entire input fields hidden or disable specifically the field "Pickup in Store : $0.00".
I can only get the radio button to be hidden but not the text beside the radio button. I know the Labels are global containers but I can see the input fields has a unique ID. Is there a way we can accomplish this e.g. CSS, Javascript or Jquery?
<div class="shopping-basket-shipping-methods" data-shopping-basket-id="35838">
<label class="user-form-field-label">
<input class="shopping-basket-shipping-method" data-cart-id="411539" data-shopping-basket-id="35838" id="shopping_baskets_attributes_35838_shipping_method_id_932" name="shopping_baskets_attributes[35838][shipping_method_id]" type="radio" value="932">
Canada Post - Ground : $20.00
</label><br>
<label class="user-form-field-label">
<input checked="checked" class="shopping-basket-shipping-method" data-cart-id="411539" data-shopping-basket-id="35838" id="shopping_baskets_attributes_35838_shipping_method_id_915" name="shopping_baskets_attributes[35838][shipping_method_id]" type="radio" value="915">
<p>Pickup in Store : $0.00</p>
</label><br>
</div>
Personally I see three options;
Wrapping both elements in a single div and targeting them together (most straight foward)
Targeting the previous sibling as well (not difficult with css)
Assigning the label an equally descriptive and dynamic id for easier targeting (might require a bit of extra work)
You shouldn't use the label element to wrap the radio and the text.
<div class="form-control">
<label for="option1">Option 1 description</label>
<input type="radio" name="shopping" id="option1" value="option1">
</div>
<div class="form-control">
<label for="option2">Option 2 description</label>
<input type="radio" name="shopping" id="option2" value="option2">
</div>
If you want to relate some text to an input field you can simply add a label element as a sibling of the input element and relate them with the for attribute matching the input's id that's going the make the html structure more solid, you can also use an extra class or add an id for the form-controls div to make it easier to select or if you are already using jQuery you can target these elements parent with something like $('#option1').parent()
No need to hide all the label simply hide its content considering the ID of the input:
#shopping_baskets_attributes_35838_shipping_method_id_915,
#shopping_baskets_attributes_35838_shipping_method_id_915 + *{
display:none;
}
<div class="shopping-basket-shipping-methods" data-shopping-basket-id="35838">
<label class="user-form-field-label">
<input class="shopping-basket-shipping-method" data-cart-id="411539" data-shopping-basket-id="35838" id="shopping_baskets_attributes_35838_shipping_method_id_932" name="shopping_baskets_attributes[35838][shipping_method_id]" type="radio" value="932">
Canada Post - Ground : $20.00
</label><br>
<label class="user-form-field-label">
<input checked="checked" class="shopping-basket-shipping-method" data-cart-id="411539" data-shopping-basket-id="35838" id="shopping_baskets_attributes_35838_shipping_method_id_915" name="shopping_baskets_attributes[35838][shipping_method_id]" type="radio" value="915">

I have some elements in my document like:
<div class="checkbox-inline">
<label><input id="myinputid" value="False" type="checkbox"/>mytext</label>
</div>
I can access get the text using:
$("#myinputid").parent().text();
This returns mytext as I had hoped it would. That is:
$("#myinputid").parent().text("newtext");
Changes my initial element to
<div class="checkbox-inline"><label>newtext</label></div>
How can I change the text part without removing the input? Or do I have to reconstruct it?
If there's a better way to structure my checkboxes to begin with, that would be an acceptable alternative.
(1) Using the "for" attribute would be one option: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/label#Using_the_for_attribute
Since the <input> is no longer child of the <label>, the input won't be affected by your changes with text().
<div class="checkbox-inline">
<label for="myinputid">mytext</label>
<input id="myinputid" value="False" type="checkbox">
</div>
(2) Another option would be to restructure as:
<div class="checkbox-inline">
<label>
<span>mytext</span>
<input id="myinputid" value="False" type="checkbox">
</label>
</div>
Then you can change the span's text without modifying the input. A span within a label is allowed according to here: Is <div> inside <label> block correct?
(3) Here might be a possible solution for your original HTML structure: jQuery - setting an element's text only without removing other element (anchor)
You can put your text inside an element for example a span and then use the .siblings() function instead of the .parent() function.
<div class="checkbox-inline">
<label>
<input id="myinputid" value="False" type="checkbox">
<span>mytext</span>
</label>
</div>
$("#myinputid").siblings().text("newtext");
I have HTML like following :
<div class="task-manager">
<label>Manager: <input type="text" value="" /></label>
</div>
I need to modify text of label Manager dynamically.
I tried using JQUERY text method, but it replaces input type also.
$taskTemplate.find(".task-manager label").text("M123")
You can use:
$taskTemplate.find(".task-manager label").contents().get(0).nodeValue = "M123:";
You should change your HTML code, because <input> field is inside <label> and when you are changing value of this label, it's also overwriting and removing input form field:
<div class="task-manager">
<label>Manager:</label> <input type="text" value="" />
</div>
Just move the Input tag outside the label tag, because when your updating the text of your label, its erasing the content of label (which will obviously remove input tag inside it) , so change your code like this
HTML code:
<div class="task-manager">
<label for="title">Manager:</label>
<input type="text" id = 'title' value="" />
</div>
JS code:
$('.task-manager label').text('Deputy Manager :');

note/suggestion:for attribute added to label to bind the input to the label by default
$taskTemplate.find(".task-manager label").contents().get(0).nodeValue = "M123:"
this worked for :)
I have been playing around with html lately and ran into a slight issue.
Let us say that there is a form with multiple elements on it. Some of those elements are checkboxes, and you want to hide the checkboxs and their corresponding text. How do you do this without hiding the entire form? The following is what I have tried so far:
<input type="checkbox" id=check1 status="display:none">Option 1<br>
But this hides the box and leaves the text "Option 1" still visible. How do I hide the text as well?
I would suggest using the <label>-tag around the whole thing:
<label style="display:none"><input type="checkbox" id="check1">Option 1</label>
This way you can hide the whole line and the user has the advantage that the checkbox toggles, if he clicks the text. You also gain in semantics.
Also note that status is not a valid attribute. For styling use style.
Wrap the input in a div and apply the "style" tag to the div.
<div style="display: none;">
<input type="checkbox" id="check1">Option 1<br>
</div>
you need to wrap it in a span/label and then hide it
<input type="checkbox" id=check1 style="display:none"><label for="check1" style="display:none">Option 1</label><br>
Place checkbox inside div and apply style to div
<div style="display:none"><input type="checkbox" id=check1>Option 1<br></div>
<span style="display:none"><input ...>Option 1</span>
or better
<label for="check1" style="display:none"><input id="check1"...>Option 1</label><br/>
I'm sure you mean style="display:none and not status, but here goes:
Your option text isn't inside the input, nor can it be (for a checkbox), so you'll have to wrap them in a container, then hide the container. Something like:
<div id="checkboxcontainer" style="display: none">
<input type="checkbox" id="check1">
Option 1
<br>
</div>
<input type="checkbox" id="check1" style="display:none">
<label for="check1">Option 1</label><br>
JS:
$('label[for="check1"]').hide();
try something like this
<label style="display:none"><input type="checkbox" id=check1 >Option 1</label>
Use the below to get your desired need.
Wrap the entirety with a label which will then allow you to use style="display:none to hide the label.
<label style="display:none"><input type="checkbox" id="check1">Option 1</label>
You also used status instead of style but by using the code above you'll do fine.
Okay, since the other answers were not that describing i can go ahead and be a little more pedagogic.
First of all, the code you have written is perfectly fine, however you lose some control over your content if it's not wrapped inside a HTML tag.
As all the other answers here wrote, you obviously need a label with your input tag:
<input type="checkbox" id="check1"><label for="check1" >Option 1</label>
You have got some different ways of using labels (which is recommended since this gives you more control over your content). My example above uses the "for" attribute, which is a pointer to the input ID to tell the browser what input field the label is for (quite obvious, eh?). You can also wrap your input inside the label (like all the other answers to this thread), which is the way some people prefers (including me):
<label for="check1"><input type="checkbox" id="check1">Option 1</label>
I saw an answer where the person who wrote some (what he called) JS which is code that hides the label with a wrapped input (i.e. the label AND the input is hidden). However, this was JS that is also using jQuery, so you need to implement that framework before you can use that code snippet:
$('label[for="check1"]').hide(); //This hides the label and the input at the same time if you wrap your input!
I recommend you to use the wrapped version of the markup, and implementing jQuery on your page and thereafter apply the codesnippet that is provided in this answer. That can give you the power to show/hide the inputs + labels on, for example, a click on a button or so. Feel free to ask me anything if you want some guidance. :)
/J.
I have a gender selection radio:
<div class="label-inputs" name="userFieldDiv" id="genderUserFieldDiv">
<label class="required">Sexo</label>
<input type="radio" class="check" value="F" name="userDto.gender" id="userDto.gender0">
<label for="userDto.gender0">Femenino</label>
<input type="radio" class="check" checked="checked" value="M" name="userDto.gender" id="userDto.gender1">
<label for="userDto.gender1">Masculino</label>
</div>
I'm trying to use a jQuery script to get the selected radio and paste it inside of a label.
$("#userDto\\.gender").change(function() { $("#genderLabel").html(this.value); });
The problem is that I'm using Spring, and when I use formRadioButton, it generates the id: userDto.gender but adds a 0 and 1 to the options. So I'm out of ideas about how to make the next HTML to get the value of the selected radio.
<div name="userLabelDiv" id="genderUserLabelDiv">
<label class="required">Sexo</label>
<label id="genderLabel">Masculino</label>
</div>
Could someone guide me through the problem? I can't find where is my error in the JS code. Thank you
The ids must be unique so what Spring is doing is just fine. Just use the name attribute for the selector instead of the id.
$('input[name="userDto\\.gender"]').change( ... )
