I have this little issue here with my page, where if I reload it while being anchored, the anchor remains and there is a problem to it. I.E
http://localhost/public/product/1#mod1
The anchor is #mod1, and while the anchor remains active after refresh, my CSS code is saying that this element:
.overlay:target
is active. Which is a very big issue, because then it doesn't allow me to explore the functionallity I have implemented on this anchor, unless I remove the #mod1 from the end of the page manually by hand. Because this CSS element makes this div visible when it should be not unless activated with the a href element.
(?)
<div id="mod{{$key}}" class="overlay">
content
</div>
Any ideas on how could I solve it? I tried catching whether the user has refreshed the page and redirecting him to an action/route/url, but the page stays blank then and URL unchanged.
You cannot use href with angularJS because it will misdirect the target link. AngularJS is a markup language for HTML, it is not HTML. Because angularJS is not HTML, we're provided a special set of directives to write angularJS values inline into HTML markup. The answer to solve your issue would be to replace the href tag in the anchor element with the angularJS directive ngHref. You can find more information about how to use ngHref and other directives at the link below. Good luck.
https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngHref
Well I wanted to purely solve this without JS, but here's what I did, HTML:
<a ng-href="mod{{$key}}" class="button">(?)</a>
<div id="mod{{$key}}" class="overlay">
Then replaced the CSS of overlay:target to -> overlay:active, and implemented JS:
var curmod;
$('a.button').on('click', function(e)
{
curmod = document.getElementById($(this).attr('ng-href'));
$(curmod).addClass('active');
});
$('.popup a.close').on('click', function(e)
{
$(curmod).removeClass('active');
curmod = null;
});

If you're at a location like this...
http://www.domain.com/index.html
... and you have a link that points to the same location...
My Link
... then clicking on the link does nothing. Normally you would be redirected to the page as normal; a handy way to refresh the page (without doing a full refresh).
I've traced the culprit of this odd behaviour to AngularJS.
Observe the following example:
<body>
Sample Link
<script>
var SampleApp = angular.module("SampleApp", []);
</script>
</body>
http://jsfiddle.net/7vqD9/
By clicking on the link the browser tries to go to the same location (because of a blank href). This is normal.
Now let's activate Angular:
<body ng-app="SampleApp">
Sample Link
<script>
var SampleApp = angular.module("SampleApp", []);
</script>
</body>
http://jsfiddle.net/7bEp3/
Clicking on the link does nothing.
Why does AngularJS break links in this way? Is there any obvious reason that I'm missing?
Why does Angular prevent classic behavior of href?
From Mastering web component with AngularJs:
AngularJS comes pre-bundled with the a directive, which prevents
default actions on links when the href attribute is omitted. This
allows us to create clickable elements using the a tag and the
ng-click directive. For example, we can invoke the atag as follows:
<a ng-click='showFAQ()'>Frequently Asked Questions</a>
Having the a tags without a default navigation action is handy, as
several CSS frameworks use the a tags to render different types of
visual elements, where a navigation action doesn't make much sense.
For example the Twitter's Bootstrap CSS framework uses the a tags to
render headers in tabs and accordion components.
Keyword to retain is: "handy"
Angular overrides the a tag: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/src/ng/directive/a.js
The lines to note here are:
// if we have no href url, then don't navigate anywhere.
if (!element.attr('href')) {
event.preventDefault();
}
Angular does this because of ngHref, which sets the href only after angular and scope are fully loaded, thus preventing the user from accidentally going to /{{pageUrl}}/.
If you want to reload the page, you should look at the $location service provided by Angular.
I have a problem with a very simple JavaScript pop-up script.
I have this example page: http://www.onofri.org/example/example4/
At the end of this page there is a box containing some flags including the British flag that is reprsented by the #reportEng div (inside the engLink link).
What I want is that when the user clicks on this element a pop0up message will show.
So I have add to the page this simple script:
<script>
var test = document.getElementById('engLink');
test.addEventListener('click', function() {
alert('clicked');
});
</script>
I have put the script inside the body section of the page and not in the head section because this is only a test page and the final result will be put into a page of a CMS in which I do not have access to the template (so I can't put the script in the head section).
The problem is that it does not work. If I click on the English flag the page is reloaded and the pop-up not shown.
Can you help me?
Thank you,
Andrea
I went a completely different approach. The addEventListener is pretty cool, but I'm a bit OLD and I've defaulted to nasty habits. This works just fine for me.
<script>
function myExample(){
alert("BaZing! It works!");
}
</script>
And for the HTML part...
<div id="reportEng" onClick="myExample()"></div>
I also want to point out that this 'fix' is a bit taboo (see here)
You don't prevent the link from being followed, so when you click the link which has an empty href, you simply reload the current page.
There are many ways to prevent the defaul link behaviour, but here is the old school way:
<div id="reportEng"></div>
Also on a side note I don't think a div element is allowed inside an a in HTML or XHTML.
FIDDLE
You are using a <a> tag, change it to use a <div> tag, or remove <a> tag at all
You can follow this to make div clickable.
When I click on a link (or hover with a mouse), the URL shows up at the bottom of the screen. That's the default behaviour in Firefox.
How can I prevent this ?
I'm making a website for tactile interfaces.
Thanks !
It would be better if you are using any other tag other than <a> if suppose you are using a
<div id='idofdiv'> tag
the query will be
$('#idofdiv').click(function(){
window.open('www.google.com');
});
hope this helps!!
Browsers don`t show what object will do onClick, so try this:
<div onclick="location.href ='http://www.google.com';"> click me </div>
Or you can use span which is inline element:
<span onclick="location.href ='http://www.google.com';"> click me </span>
you can achieve this using jquery,
first inlcude the jquery library in your page then
write the script in the page
$(function(){
$('[data-url]') //select all elements having data-url
.click(function(e){ e.preventDefault();
window.location.href= $(this).attr('data-url')})
})
and in the html
<span data-url="#/inbox" >Go to inbox</span>
<a data-url="mydraft.html">Drafts</a>
This is not possible and CSS is nowhere here, you just cannot do it with CSS, well you can use something like this to spoof the <a> link but I suggest you don't use all this, without any specific reason, anyways they'll find the URL from the source page

Demo
Note: Actually just checked, the demo is not working on the fiddle page but just make a local .html page and it will work
Is there a standard way for making all the links in a site, with the form href=#something, become 'go-to' links? (does this kind of links have a name?)
Let me describe these links further: When you click them, #something is added to the url. And if you go directly to that url from your browser, it takes you to that page, and then it scrolls down to that link.
Take this link as example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe#cite_note-Craig-45
Edit: As you can see, the div gets highlighted. How to make that happen automatically?
You're referring to anchor tags. Here's an example of a JavaScript-less internal link:
Go to my div!
<div id="myDiv">
This is content
</div>
If you want to send someone to myDiv using JavaScript, then you could do it this way:
<span onclick="window.location.hash = '#myDiv'">Go to my div!</span>
<div id="myDiv">
This is content
</div>
Here's a jsFiddle that demonstrates both the HTML and JavaScript methods.
You can also use a similar method to allow the use to navigate to page and then scroll them to the appropriate element on the page. Simply add the hash (#) plus the ID of the element to the URL. For example:
Go to my page and then div!
Or, with JavaScript
Go to my page and then div!
Use the id attribute of the a tag. Place the following at the location you would like to link to:
<a id="example"></a>
You can then link to that using:
Go to example
If you want to link to a specific anchor on a different page, simply use the # character after the URL:
Go to different page example
Here's an example.
The thing after the # is called an anchor, and is defined using the a-tag: <a id="something">.
If you just have #something as a link, like <a href="#something">, it will resolve relatively to the current page. So if your page is at http://myurl/mypage.html then it will open http://myurl/mypage.html#something.
I'm using PopBox for magnifying thumbnails on my page.
But I want my website to work even for users which turned javascript off.
I tried to use the following HTML code:
<a href="image.jpg">
<img src="thumbnail.jpg" pbsrc="image.jpg" onclick="Pop(...);"/>
</a>
Now i need to disable the a-Tag using javascript, otherwise my PopBox won't work.
How do I do that?
Just put the onclick on the a-tag:
<img ...>
Make sure to return false either at the end of the function (here Pop) or inline like in the above example. This prevents the user from being redirected to the link by the <a>'s default behaviour.
Put the onclick event onto the link itself, and return false from the handler if you don't want the default behavior to be executed (the link to be followed)
You could give all your fallback anchor tags a particular classname, like "simple"
Using prototype, you can get an array of all tags using that class using a CSS selector, e.g.
var anchors=$$('a.simple')
Now you can iterate over that array and clear the href attributes, or install an onclick handler to override the normal behaviour, etc...
(Edited to add that the other methods listed above are much simpler, this just came from a background of doing lots of unobtrusive javascript, where your JS kicks in and goes and augments a functioning HTML page with extra stuff!)
May I suggest, in my opinion, the best solution? This is using jQuery 1.4+.
Here you have a container with all your photos. Notice the added classes.
<div id="photo-container">
<a href="image1.jpg">
<img class="popup-image" src="thumbnail1.jpg" pbsrc="image1.jpg" />
</a>
<a href="image2.jpg">
<img class="popup-image" src="thumbnail2.jpg" pbsrc="image2.jpg" />
</a>
<a href="image3.jpg">
<img class="popup-image" src="thumbnail3.jpg" pbsrc="image3.jpg"/>
</a>
</div>
An then you make a single event handler this way:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var container = $('#photo-container');
// let's bind our event handler
container.bind('click', function(event){
// thus we find (if any) the image the user has clicked on
var target = $(event.target).closest('img.popup-image');
// If the user has not hit any image, we do not handle the click
if (!target.length) return;
event.preventDefault(); // instead of return false;
// And here you can do what you want to your image
// which you can get from target
Pop(target.get(0));
});
});
</script>
The href attribute is not required for anchors (<a> tags), so get rid of it...
<a id="apic001" href="pic001.png"><img src="tn_pic001.png"></a>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("apic001").removeAttribute("href");
</script>
This method will avoid library contention for onclick.
Tested in IE6/FF3/Chrome. Side benefit: You can link directly to the portion of the page containing that thumbnail, using the id as a URI fragment: http://whatever/gallery.html#apic001.
For maximum browser compatibility, add a name="apic001" attribute to the anchor tag in your markup ('name' and 'id' values must be identical).
Using jQuery, dojo, Prototype, etc. you should be able to do the removeAttribute on multiple, similar anchors without needing the id.
You should be able to mix and match the return false from Chris's idea with your own code:
<a href="image.jpg" onclick="return false;">
<img src="thumbnail.jpg" pbsrc="image.jpg" onclick="Pop(...);">
</a>
If someone has Javascript disabled, then their browser ignores the onclick statement in both elements and follows the link; if they have Javascript enabled, then their browser follows both OnClick statements -- the first one tells them not to follow the <a> link. ^_^
