First dropdown menu not closing after hovering second menu - javascript

I get some issue when opening the menu1 dropdown and directly after mouseover the menu2 to open it without closing de menu1.
If I open the menu1 and move the cursor out from the nav to close the dropdown and then mouseover the menu2 it works fine.
If I go directly from menu1 to menu2 or inversely, the menu2 dropdown appear under the menu1 dropdown.
I thinks that I have a mistake in my html or it can be fix with a jquery function but I don't know how to solve this. I wish to add more menu, in the actually there are only two.
I hope that you understand my problem,
Any help would be appreciated
$(document).ready(function () {
var menu = $('.menu')
menu.hide();
$("#mainbutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu").stop().slideDown("fast");
});
$("#nav").mouseleave(function(){
$(".menu").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
var menu2 = $('.menu2')
menu2.hide();
$("#secondboutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu2").stop().slideDown("fast");
});
$("#nav").mouseleave(function(){
$(".menu2").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
});
Here the JSFiddle

I would suggest to add a general class name to all menus .menu and a specific selector for each individual menu (#menu1 or .menu1) as well as an indicator for the active state .active. this way you can simply close all .menu.active
see the following fiddle as a simple proof of concept:
https://jsfiddle.net/ad3a5qyw/2/
EDIT:
I've abstracted the fiddle so you can add data-menu attributes to the nav-items to indicate the associated menu.

I see what's going on here:
It's easy with jQuery and the code you've written already, and here's an example with a new menu item to show how easy it is: https://jsfiddle.net/xyqoj24m/2/
What's going on is that the mouseleave functions are only run when the mouse leaves the entire #nav element. So what needs to be done is handle the hiding/showing of the menus like so:
When the mouse hovers over a menu item, close all other dropdowns and show the correct one.
When the mouse leaves the dropdown or the menu item, close the dropdown.
Take a look at this Javascript and see what that means:
$("#mainbutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu").stop().slideDown("fast");
$(".menu2").stop().slideUp("fast");
$(".menu3").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
$("#secondbutton").mouseenter(function(){
$(".menu2").stop().slideDown("fast");
$(".menu").stop().slideUp("fast");
$(".menu3").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
// leave the first menu dropdown
$("#mainbutton, .menu").mouseleave(function() {
$(".menu").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
// leave the second menu dropdown
$("#secondbutton, .menu2").mouseleave(function() {
$(".menu2").stop().slideUp("fast");
});
Feel free to ask questions!

Open menu on click close other menus

I have been working on getting a popup menu on a button.
There are 7 buttons with this menu, on the page in different containers. So far you can click the button and the menu opens.
Each menu opens with its own version of this, which works but not efficient:
$('.country-btn-portugal').click(()=>{
$(".dropdowna").toggleClass('active');
});
$('.country-btn-uk').click(()=>{
$(".dropdowna").toggleClass('active');
});
....etc... x7, one for each button menu.
I have tried to close the menu if an item is clicked but doesnt function with:
//close if menu <a> is clicked
$('#mclose').click(()=>{
$('.dropdown').removeClass('active');
});
And using the following to close the menu if an item that is not this element is clicked (does not work):
$(document).mouseup(function (e)
{
var container = $("#oclick");
if (!container.is(e.target) // if the target of the click isn't the container...
&& container.has(e.target).length === 0) // ... nor a descendant of the container
{
container.hide();
}
});
which i was hoping would also fix the issue when 1 menu is open and your next click is another menu, so you have both open.
The menu buttons will be serving separate divs (or card like boxes and are not siblings next to eachother. Hence finding it hard to compact the code. had to give each menu its own click functions.
it is a mess sorry. would be nice to see where im going wrong here.
fiddle --> https://jsfiddle.net/s4nk1zev/118/
html structure for one "card" with one "menu button".
<div class="country_card">
<span class="cc-t goth upperC">Portugal </span> <span class="cc-t goth upperC blued">Visa</span>
<div class="cc-txt">
text in here
</div>
<div class="cc-btn">
<button class="tablabel country-btn-portugal" id="portimg"></button>
<div id="mcontainer" class="dropdowna">
<a id="mclose" class="mclose" href="#home">Overview</a>
<a id="mclose" href="#about">Application Process</a>
<a id="mclose" href="#contact">Investment Options</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Well, this is how I would have done that.
Here is the updated fiddle
And this script would do enough
//open menu
$('.tablabel').click(function(event){
$('.tablabel').not(this).next().removeClass("active")
$(this).next().toggleClass("active")
});
//close if menu clicked
$(".dpd").click(function(e){
$(this).toggleClass("active")
})
//close if anything but menu clicked
What it does is, just listen for any click on the button and add active class to the next of it. Removing active class from all the active elements if there is any.
Secondly, you can use a class (as I've added one dpd) on the menue items to detect a click on them to close the open menu.
One more thing. Identifiers must be unique for each element you use. I've also updated them to be unique
Hope that helps
SInce your button and menu tags appear to always be siblings, if you add a common class to all your dropdowns, you can get a list of all of them more easily. Like this:
<div id="mcontainer" class="dropdown dropdowna">
Also as a suggestion, it's really not a very good idea to have duplicate ids in your document. It's against the html standard, and it can cause strange issues with getting tags by id.
Once you have a common class on all your dropdowns, you can do something like this to close all others, and toggle the one related to the button you're clicking.
function fnClick(e){
var $dd = $(this).next();
$('.dropdown').not($dd).removeClass('active');
$dd.toggleClass('active');
}
//open menu
$('.country-btn-portugal').click(fnClick);
$('.country-btn-uk').click(fnClick);
here's an update of your fiddle to demonstrate:
https://jsfiddle.net/s4nk1zev/143/
You can try using promise().done(), and reviewing the html class. This is a fiddle for you: https://jsfiddle.net/zxoLmf71/
using a promise on an element let you wait for the code to finish execution before start the new one. this is the code:
//open menu
const buttons = $('.country-btn');
const dropDownMenus = $('.dropdownmenu');
const dropDownItems = $('.dropDownItem')
buttons.click(function() {
dropDownMenus.removeClass('active');
$(this).next('div').promise().done(function() {
$(this).toggleClass('active');
});
});
//close if menu clicked
dropDownItems.click(function() {
dropDownMenus.removeClass('active');
});
Hope it helps

Close menu when another item is hovered

I am creating a menu with two dropdowns. I need the dropdowns to open when the menu item is hovered over, but close if the other menu item is hovered over.
The problem I am having is getting the first dropdown to close if I hover over the second menu item.
Please see my fiddle here: http://www.bootply.com/uEKWCdNj4C
I've looked through other questions, and this one seems to possibly be of use, but I'm having trouble applying it to my situation: Vertical Menu to stay open on hover then close when another is hovered
So I apologize if this is a duplicate...any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
You can call slideup on the open ul before calling slidedown on the current one. like below
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".nav-basic").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-applied').slideUp('medium');
$('ul.menu-basic').slideDown('medium');
});
$('ul.menu-basic').bind('mouseleave', function(){
$('ul.menu-basic').slideUp('medium');
});
$(".nav-applied").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideUp('medium');
$('ul.menu-applied').slideDown('medium');
});
$('ul.menu-applied').bind('mouseleave', function(){
$('ul.menu-applied').slideUp('medium');
});
});
You just needed to update your script to call the slideUp function:
$(".nav-basic").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideDown('medium');
$('ul.menu-applied').slideUp('medium');
});
$(".nav-applied").hover(function () {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideUp('medium');
$('ul.menu-applied').slideDown('medium');
});
Your code could use some optimization, but you could basically call slideUp() on all other $(.menu-interior') elements that are not of the target class:
Example: $('.menu-interior:not(.menu-basic)').slideUp();
See forked fiddle here: http://www.bootply.com/DZxktgUtjh
Note: This will close ANY other open menu, rather than having to hard-code all other classes when the menu grows.
So set an class="isHovered" on the element that is hovered.
Set the boxes class="isHovered" aswell ..
If hover is called again , or lets say mouseenter, you check if isHovered is set on the current box and on the other box ... or iterate over any boxes there might be ...
You could aswell store the currently hovered element id in a variable and the box id. Then use these values. As JS is not multithreaded you can rely on the order of execution ...
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".nav-basic").hover(function() {
$('ul.menu-basic').slideToggle('medium');
});
$(".nav-applied").hover(function() {
$('ul.menu-applied').slideToggle('medium');
});
});

click outside bootstrap menu to close it

I tried to find solution to close bootstrap menu when clicking outside of it(in mobile window size), but cant get it to work, I get it to work when clicking one of the 'a' links by this code:
// menu buttons collapses when clicking a link
$('document').ready(function()
{
if ($('a').on('click', function()
{
$('.collapse, #mainContainer').removeClass('in');
$('.navbar-toggle').toggleClass('collapsed'); // button
}));
});
but how to close menu by clicking outside the menu navbar?
here's my page that shows the problem
iwebdesign.se
and yes i tried this already, not working:
similar question
Assuming you want to do something different when clicking outside of the menu (i.e. collapse the menu) than what happens when you click inside the menu, you probably want something like this to determine if you're clicking inside or outside of the menu:
$('body').click(function(event){
// check if the clicked element is a descendent of navigation
if ($(event.target).closest('.navigation').length) {
return; //do nothing if event target is within the navigation
} else {
// do something if the event target is outside the navigation
// code for collapsing menu here...
}
});
https://jsfiddle.net/L3qg4pa8/5/ shows the concept, roughly.
Of course, you will need to replace '.navigation' in the .closest() statement with the appropriate selector for the container of your navigation.
$(document).on('click',function(){
$('.collapse').collapse('hide');
});
Just copy the code and past your custome script or index.html
thank's Remy

jQuery responsive multi-paged menu mouseover/leave interaction

level menu with a unconventional html markup due to the responsive nature of the project. That means I cannot use nested ul and li like one usually does when creating nested menus.
I have created a fiddle which on mouseover loads the correct next menu but on mouseleave the menus stay.
I want the menus to act like a hover interaction and be hidden once the cursor leaves the correspondent sub-level
http://jsfiddle.net/umbriel/pqbvkuoy/
$('.level2').hide();
$('.level3').hide();
$('.level1').find('ul .active').mouseover( function(){
$('.level2').show();
});
$('.level2').find('ul .active').mouseover( function(){
$('.level3').show();
});
Thank you
You can use hover() event and toggle(). Try this:
$('.level1').find('ul .active').hover( function(){
$('.level2').toggle();
});

onclick dropdown menu with a form, click outside to close

ive got a drop down menu with form elements. the menu element gets set to
display:none
when anything outside the element is clicked ... or at least so i thought.
Here's my little function
$(function(){
$('#loginAcc').click( function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
//show
$('#auth-menu').css('display', 'block');
});
$(document).click( function(){
//hide when click anywhere out the menu
$('#auth-menu').hide();
});
})
the problem i have is that it also closes when i click inside the element, which makes it very difficult, pretty much impossible to complete a form.
#loginAcc
is a horizontal list item that gets clicked, and
#auth-menu
is
if i were to hazard a guess, i would like to think that .toggle() is the culprit, but that's a sheer guess and i wouldn't even know where to start if i were to reimplement it (a little bird told me that it's getting taken out of the spec anyway).
what i would like to happen is that when you click on the #loginAcc list item, the #auth-menu gets set to display:block, and can only be closed if you reclick #loginAcc or anywhere else outside of #auth-menu.
any help would be amazing. thanks
Use a not() selector to exclude the menu:
$(document).not('#auth-menu').click( function(){
//hide when click anywhere out the menu
$('#auth-menu').hide();
});
