I'm creating a portfolio website for a filmmaker.
I would like to know how to go to another page and change the URL when just scroll the window like these websites(http://taotajima.jp/, http://maxxhat.com/). Are these pages in one html document or multiple documents?
I searched and tried to solve it by myself but couldn't find the answer since I'm a junior developer. I would like to know at least what I need to learn to actually do it.
Thank you in advance.
A new feature offers you a way to change the URL displayed in the browser* through javascript without reloading the page. It will also create a back-button event and you even have a state object you can interact with.
You can programmatically invoke the back-function by running:
window.history.back();
If you need to manipulate a state (instead of creating a new one) you can use:
window.history.replaceState(“object or string”, “Title”, “/another-new-url”);
Check the example here LINK

Are there any alternate way of below code to set app language? Below code refresh the whole page always that gives bad experience to users.
window.location.search = "sap-language=EN";
This is also one way to achieve.
sap.ui.getCore().getConfiguration().setLanguage("EN");
However, some standard controls after rendered don't change the labels. Let me know if there are any other way that help here because loading whole page doesn't make any sense.
You can use Ajax by getting all the new markup and replacing the existing content by the reloaded content.
It might create some issues with other running scripts like loading images and sliders etc that holds a reference to an element so you have to reinitialize every single script that is running on settimeout() on your page.
Moreover you can use jQuery Localisation plugin
I have two pages and those are role-list and role-details. There is requirement that depends on role that i need to hide the menu options after save button click. This i am able to fulfill with the below code
windows.location.reload();
after reload i need to navigate to the different page.. for that purpose i am using below code.
if(this.menuHide == "true"){
window.location.reload();
this.router.navigateByUrl('/', {skipLocationChange: true}).then(()=>
this.router.navigate(['role-list']));
}
also tried with these options as well
this.router.navigate(['/role-list']));
this.router.navigateByUrl('/role-list');
the code below reload method is not executing that means it is not redirecting to role-list page. I am using angular 7 version.
Could any one please suggest any ideas on how to navigate to other page that would be grateful to me, many thanks in advance.
You should not be calling
window.location.reload();
What you are doing here is reloading the entire page and destroying the Angular app. You should never be doing this in a single page application such as those created with Angular. Any code following the call to reload will never be executed as you have destroyed the entire JavaScript application and reloading the entire thing from scratch which is never desirable.
In Angular we use a modern style of programming called Reactive Programming based on RxJs observables. This is a concept well beyond the scope of a StackOverflow answer but your menu should be reacting to an Observable of roles.
if you want to hide only menu you dont need to reload entire page, just implement a hide function and use it.
for opening in the new tab is not possible only with "router" you have to create the link separately and call it with "window.open()" function.
this may help you with routing
I have solved this issue by using below code
if(this.menuHide == "true"){
this.router.navigate(['/role-list']).then(()=>{
window.location.reload();
});
}
It is working perfectly fine .. Thank you all for your valuable suggestions.
So I have a very specific problem that presented itself recently (right before our planned launch day tomorrow) and I am not completely sure how to solve it. I have built our website of an HTML-template with my modest front-end skills and we are very pleased with it. However, I can't seem to solve this.
The problem:
I have a filter system that allows a user to filter articles that are presented on a page. A user can even fill in this filter on the home page, direct to the page with the articles and have the filter applied. However, if then the filter is broadened (less strict) and new articles present itself, the pictures do not show up. Found out this is the case because the flexslider behind it has to be initialized again which happens on a window load (e.g. when the window is resized). The function that controls the initialization of the flexslider is in an external js file and I am not sure whether I can call on it from my own custom.js file, so I am thinking of just calling a resize/reload window function to active it.
The question:
Can I run a resize window function (or something that activates the flexslider) without hindering user experience (more specifically, without ACTUALLY resizing/reloading the window)? I will run this on a change in the filter.
I know this is a very specific question but hopefully somebody can help me out.
Take care!
p.s. it would be ideal if I could run the actual function that loads the flexslider but this is located in an external js file.
EDIT:
Briefly some additional info. If I go straight to the article page, it has no filter active and thus shows all articles, if I then start flipping through the filter, all is good. It is however only if I arrive from the homepage with a set filter that the problems arise. You then arrive on the article page which shows only the articles that are within the boundaries, and when the filter is taken away it has problems loading the images of the new articles showing up. As if it had not loaded these because they were not open on window load the first time.
You can trigger a resize event by creating a new event and passing it into the dispatchEvent command on window. There's a nice guide here. You'll want the type of event to be resize, since that's what it's listening for.
window.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'))
This will work for events that were added via jQuery as well as events added via addEventListener.
I managed to solve it after all by delaying the function that drops the filter values into my inputs so it loads in all images initially before applying the filter. It happens at such speed it's hardly noticeable.
Also, I did try to initiate a window resize function, it did work without actually resizing anything, but unfortunately the images did not load in properly (overlap and such).
Anyway, it has been solved. Thanks for all the input!
I'm currently struggling with a good navigation on a website using Ajax calls and unobstrusive JS. I'm catching the click event on links, load the content, attach it to a div and then return false. This works quite well and also allows Google to crawl the site with speaky URLs.
But I didn't know how to deal with the browser back button. I found this solution to catch the event when the user clicks on the back button:
http://www.bajb.net/2010/02/browser-back-button-detection/
It works quite well. But I also want the back button to work normally when the user found the website via a link and wants to return to the previous page (I don't want to trap anyone).
When I thought about it the best way would be to use anchors. The normal back button supports them and you can go back in history without reloading the page (/#1 <- /#2 <- /#3 etc.)
It would work like this:
Use normal URLs in the link, but catch the click event
When user clicks, load content and attach it to a DIV
Change the window.location, using an anchor (e.g. 'domain.com/#products/women-clothing' with window.location="#products/women-clothing";)
When the window.location changes, get the anchor, read out the path and get the content via ajax, attach it to a DIV
Only the last part isn't really clear for me and I could need help here.
Finaly, my question: Does this make any sense?
Thanks!
Just add the href to window.location.hash after loading the content into a div. Then you can use that back button detection script to load what ever is in the hash.
I solved the problem by using this great jQuery Plugin: History.js
Thanks!
You all know how to build AJAX sites with those 300ms trigger for checking anchors (hash links) in URL and then loading proper page with AJAX. But, these anchor links are nothing to search engines =(
I've thought of making some kind of workaround. All JS code remains the same, but, this little thing (I'm with JQuery, sorry):
$('a').live("click",function(){
var lnk = $(this).attr("href");
document.location.hash = lnk;
return false;
})
And then, you replace your anchor links in the body with plain links, build corresponding plain pages (still containing all JS codes) for non-javascript users and search engines. For normal visitors you would have plain links converted into hashes on fly and AJAX content loaded immediately. For those who are trying to load certain pages found through search engine - they will, and after that visitor will continue to move around with ajax navigation... somehow (remember, those plain direct pages still contain JS code).
I just want to make sure my assumptions are right. Are they?
Update: Bad thing is that when user directly enters some internal page with for ex. /portfolio address, he would then continue to /portfolio#contacts or similar URLs that are not so pretty, but still working (I mean /portfolio#contacts would show contacts).
That doesn't seem to be a good approach mainly because you'll end up having that function being triggered for the click event of each and every link, even those where you do not want to use your AJAX approach for loading content, for instance links to other sites or to javascript:....
If you place all your AJAX-y links under the same class or use another attribute to distinguish them and then adapt the jQuery selector that you're using there, then it will work and it will be a good approach because not only will it be SEO-friendly, but it also provides graceful degradation, that is, your users will still be able to access the content even if they're running in an environment where no JavaScript is allowed.
Other than that, and if SEO is your only concern, you may search the web for what a sitemap.xml file is and how to use it. Wikipedia has an article on it that may be worth a reading.
Sounds very sound... only I would suggest the callback on your 300ms timer also be called inside the event you have above, that way you have an instant result when clicking a link(and also a user can goto the link in the address bar and get the same effect)
Hey mate, you probably want to check out jQuery Ajaxy. It gracefully upgrades websites into rich ajax applications, so your website still works for SEO and Javascript disabled users.
You can see this functionality in action in this upcoming website. Notice how all the links are the same as they would be if the website isn't a Ajax application - and they still work if you right click and go open in new window!
This functionality is explained in detail at it's demo page. You can also find other examples and usage instructions there to:
http://www.balupton.com/sandbox/jquery-ajaxy/demo/
Overall to use it is surprisingly simple and straightforward (especially considering what it allows you to do!), and the support is fantastic.
