I added a dropdown list to the navbar on another site and added the class .open to the list. My intention is as follows: upon load the webpage navbar list contains an img element and opens displaying a promotional offer. So far so good, the page loads and the list drops displaying the ad, and if clicked it then closes.
Ok what I am aiming for is adding a function via jquery or JavaScript or css which will automatically CLOSE the dropdown list after about 5 seconds. I have read that the .open class in bootstraps.min.css is not cleared by default and therefore will remain open unless it is 'clicked' to close it.
<div class="navbar-responsive">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active">
<li class="open dropdown-menu">
<a href="#" Id="test" class="dropdown-toggle" data- toggle="dropdown"><strong class="caret">
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>
Click to close.
</li>
<li>
<img src="image folder/my_ad_image.png"
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</li>
</ul>
</div><!---end nav collapse--->
</div><!---end container--->
</div>>!---end main navbar--->
This above is what I have written. It rests atop an already existing navbar.
Thanks for reading.
If anyone has any suggestion or could point me in the right direction with respect to tying a jquery timeout function to my .open class or id that would be great. So far I have been unable to tie a jquery function or css to my dropdown list
Thanks.
You can use setTimeout() to implement timers in javascript.
The setTimeout() method calls a function or evaluates an expression
after a specified number of milliseconds.
Adapting your code it can be implemented like this:
CSS:
...
<li id="myid" class="open dropdown-menu">
<strong class="caret"></strong>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>
Click to close.
</li>
<li> ... </li>
</ul>
</li>
...
jScript (assuming you're using jQuery):
$(function() {
setTimeout(function() {
$("#myid").removeClass("open")
}, 5000);
});

I have a side bar menu collapsible submenu in my Angular project. I used isActive comment for showing active state. When i refresh any page it should show the particular menu with active state. it works on when i refresh submenu's first link. If i click submenu's second link, it doesn't work.
I dont know how to declare active more than a link. ng-class="{show:isActive('/create-workorder')}"
My code is below
<ul>
<li>Work
<ul class="second_level" ng-class="{show:isActive('/create-workorder')}">
<li>
<a href="#/create-workorder" class="" ng-class="{active_sub:isActive('/create-workorder')}">
<div class="create_wo"></div>Create WO</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#/workorder-all" class="" ng-class="{active_sub:isActive('/workorder-all')}">
<div class="overall_queue"></div>Overall all</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Status
<ul class="second_level" ng-class="{show:isActive('/history')}">
<li>
<a href="#/history" class="" ng-class="{active_sub:isActive('/history')}">
<div class="status"></div>History</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#/recent" class="" ng-class="{active_sub:isActive('/recent')}">
<div class="recent"></div>Recent</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
A common technique to use to determine active menu is to use the URL itself.
On page refresh you can check the URL and highlight corresponding menu.
For parent-child menu, you can choose to code the relationship, e.g. specify that you should also highlight "status" when you highlight "history".
Or you can use URL itself for the structure, e.g. #/status/history instead of #/history.
I've been trying to make a responsive website, most of it is sorted but I'm having difficulty with making the menu button (that shows up on devices specified by the media query) show and hide the navigation bar.
After researching it seems the only method is via JS, is this correct?
Anyway, I'm pretty awful when it comes to JS but I put it as I believed it would work. Here is the snippet of code. So the idea is, when ".menu-icon" is clicked the menu will drop down (or in this case fade in) and revert to hidden upon a second click etc.
http://jsfiddle.net/af57r1to/
<div id="logo">
<a href="#">
<img class="logo" src="images/logo.png" alt="Logo" style="width:200px;height:100px" />
</a>
<a class="menu-icon" href="#menu"></a>
<br></br>
</div>
<div class="navbar">
<ul class="navbar cf">
<li>HOME
</li>
<li>SECTIONS
<ul>
<li>RETAIL
</li>
<li>HOTEL
</li>
<li>RESTAURANT
</li>
<li>SHOPPING
</li>
</ul>
<li>HOW IT WORKS
</li>
<li>OUR EXPERIENCE
</li>
<li>TESTIMONIALS
</li>
<li>NEWS
</li>
<li>CONTACT US
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<br />
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.menu-icon').click(function () {
$('.navbar').fadeToggle();
});
});
As this is at the moment, it seems to fade the navigation in for approximately 0.3seconds and then disappears. Not giving the user much time to choose an option from the drop down! aha.
I know it will be something obvious I've missed. Any help regarding it would be grateful.
Removing the class navbar from navbar cf solves the toggle issue, but screws up the styling. So, give an id to your navbar and toggle on that.
<div class="navbar" id='navbarID'>
<ul class="navbar cf">
<li>HOME
and
$('.menu-icon').click(function () {
$('#navbarID').fadeToggle();
});
Here is the fiddle
You have some errors in both HTML & JS.
First: You opened the inner <ul> element in a <li> element but closed it outside of the li element. The structure is wrong. It must closed inside the <li> element where it opened.
Second: The $(document).ready() function is not closed properly:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.menu-icon').click(function () {
$('.navbar').fadeToggle();
});
});
Ive got this dropdown styled with bootstrap:
<li class="dropdown">
<a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" href="#" id="posuvnik">15min <strong class="caret"></strong></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li> 15min </li>
<li> 1hod </li>
</ul>
</li>
and I want that dropdown menu to be rolled down on a page load, anyone know how to achieve that? thanks in advance :)
The dropdown is toggled with having the additional class 'open' added to the enclosing <li> element. So if you want to have it open on page loading:
<li class="dropdown open">
That will do the trick.
This little bit of jQuery script (I'm assuming you've loaded it becasue you're using Bootstrap) ought to do the trick. Once the DOM has loaded, it sends a click() to the dropdown toggle button.
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#posuvnik").click();
});
There is probably a way to do it in straight CSS, but without seeing more of your code it's hard to know.
I'm trying to open a submenu from the parent link using the mmenu jquery plugin, and almost got it, but once open the submenu, the function also close the menu (the main menu opened from the left).
I got this:
<nav data-role="navbar" data-iconpos="left" id="leftMenu">
<ul>
<li><a id="a_home" href="/" >Home</a></li>
<li><a id="a_what" href="/" >What to do</a></li>
<li>
<a id="a_guides" href="#guidesSubmenu" onclick="$('#leftMenu ul#guidesSubmenu').trigger( 'open.mm' );" >Guides</a>
<ul id="guidesSubmenu">
<li>Beer Guide 2013</li>
<li>Bar Guide 2013</li>
<li>Cheap Eats 2013</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<a id="a_sections" href="#" >Sections</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
So, when I click on the Guides link, opens the submenu, but also close the main menu, animating to the right.
Anybody knows how is the right way to open a submenu?
This is the plugin page: http://mmenu.frebsite.nl/
Is not a simple jquery javascript.
Thanks.
The jquery.mmenu plugin automatically appends a "open-submenu"-button to every LI with an UL inside it. If the A doesn't link to an actuall page, all you need to do, is replace it with a SPAN:
<ul>
<li><span>Guides</span>
<ul>
<li>Beer Guide 2013</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
$('li').hover(function(){
$('ul',this).slideDown();
},function(){
$('ul',this).slideUp();
});
Just change the selector with your own li tags class name.I think you can also toggle method.
$('#li').toggle(function() {
$('ul',this).slideDown();
}, function() {
$('ul',this).slideUp();
});
We ran into this exact same scenario today, and after a good amount of research used the following solution (adapted to your situation). It seems like they've changed things around so the data attributes on the elements are not clearly supported, so we moved the initialization to JavaScript.
HTML (did not change):
<nav data-role="navbar" data-iconpos="left" id="leftMenu">
<ul>
<li><a id="a_home" href="/" >Home</a></li>
<li><a id="a_what" href="/" >What to do</a></li>
<li>
<a id="a_guides" href="#guidesSubmenu" onclick="$('#leftMenu ul#guidesSubmenu').trigger( 'open.mm' );" >Guides</a>
<ul id="guidesSubmenu">
<li>Beer Guide 2013</li>
<li>Bar Guide 2013</li>
<li>Cheap Eats 2013</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<a id="a_sections" href="#" >Sections</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
JavaScript:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#leftMenu").mmenu({
onClick: {
close: false
}
});
});
</script>
Specifying the close option as false makes it so it does not close the mmenu when you click on the li, and allows the onclick event handler to open up the sub-menu item.
I am running WebdriverJS on nodeJS to test the UI of a website. I want select and click on a submenu item in a drop down menubar. The submenu items are hidden by CSS. The menubar looks like this:
<ul class="dropdown" id="mainNavList">
<li class="active">
<span>Home</span>
</li>
<li class="">
<span>My Products</span>
<ul style="visibility: hidden;">
<li class="">
Product A
</li>
<li class="">
Product B
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>...</li>
</ul>
If I try to run this approach:
mydriver.executeScript("return $(\"a:contains('My Products')\").mouseover();").then(function(){
mydriver.findElement(mywebdriver.By.xpath("//a[contains(text(), 'Product B')]")).click();
});
the drop down slides down but hides directly after showing it. On the console I get an error from Webdriver:
ElementNotVisibleError: Element must be displayed to click (WARNING: The server
did not provide any stacktrace information)
Any ideas?
This is new to me as well but I would chain function calls of Click on the drop down then click the drop down item you want.
try this:
var menu = mydriver.findElement(mywebdriver.By.css('[href="/MyProducts"]'));
menu.click();
menu.findElement(mywebdriver.By.css('[href="/jkjkjk"]')).click();
As James said it's about chaining. In the snippet above the chaining is implicit (both findElement and click methods add a frame to the webdriver.controlFlow().
