Say I have a div with an id (main comment) and more divs underneath with reply id's. I want to dynamically add the content of the comment to the end at the end of the replies. I can't grab the id of the last reply, but I can grab the id of the main comment (which is also the id of the commentbox which is always at the end. Something like this:
<div class="commentArea">
<div class="comment_'.id.'"> Something </div>
<div class="reply_'.replyid.'"> What kind of comment is that? </div>
<div class="reply_'.replyid.'"> What kind of reply is that? </div>
<div class="reply_'.replyid.'"> You guys are strange. </div>
<div class="replyToComment_'.id.'"> some button and stuff </div>
</div>
I want to add content inside commentArea right before replyToComment_'.id.' ...
I had an idea that probably works and looked like this (I was thinking maybe there was some easier way to do it).
<div class="commentArea">
<div class="comment_'.id.'"> Something </div>
<div class="reply_'.replyid.'"> What kind of comment is that? </div>
<div class="reply_'.replyid.'"> What kind of reply is that? </div>
<div class="reply_'.replyid.'"> You guys are strange. </div>
<div class="newReply"></div>
<div class="replyToComment_'.id.'"> some button and stuff </div>
</div>
And just add and empty div of newReply at the end of every reply posted...
Any other ideas?
.appendTo() of jQuery is what you need:
http://api.jquery.com/appendto/
Ok I thought about few ways to achieve this goal... "If i understand correctly what you were trying to ask"
By this way you do not need even to use ID as a class.... unless there is a specific reason to this?!?!
If not then move the id to id attribute and give it something like this
id="2,56"
2 = the question || post id
56 = the answer id
by this way you will have more control on your posts and comments
1. if reply_ is an individual class
$('.reply_')[$('.reply_').length - 1].after(comment);
2. if replyToComment_ is an individual class
$('.replyToComment_').before(comment);
I am not sure, I understood your question correctly, but I think .prepend() would help you.
You will need to wrap your last div i.e. <div class="replyToComment_'.id.'"> some button and stuff </div> with some other div and do .prepend() on that parent everytime. Like this:
<div class='parentContainer'>
<div class="replyToComment_'.id.'"> some button and stuff </div>
</div>
And do $(".parentContainer'").prepend(newComment) to add comment everytime.
This is how I would do it:
$("#addtxt").click(function () {
$("[class^='replyToComment']").before("<div class='newReply'>" + $("#text").val() + "</div>");
});

I have what is probably an incredibly simple question, but I don't know how to resolve it and any help would certainly be appreciated.
Here's my code;
<div id='div2'>
<div class="DoYouHaveADirtBikeForSaleBox" id="DoYouHaveADirtBikeForSaleBox">
<h2>Got A Bike to Sell?</h2>
<p class="BikeForSaleButton">
Yes
</p>
<p class="BikeForSaleButtonNo">
<a onclick="javascript:var div = document.getElementById('div2');div.parentNode.removeChild(div);">No</a></p>
</div>
</div>
For a reason unbeknownst to me, the "No" link is not changing the cursor to a hand when hovered over but I haven't a clue how to address this.
I would suspect the problem is arising because the NO link doesn't have a href but being that I'm very novice I don't know how to remedy the situation so I ask that someone could please show me how to resolve this and I thank you in advance.
because you have no href attribute on the link. Add one and the cursor will change.
NITPICk: drop the javascript: it is not needed.
Add href ="#" to make it look like a link and not to navigate to a different page
<div id='div2'>
<div class="DoYouHaveADirtBikeForSaleBox" id="DoYouHaveADirtBikeForSaleBox">
<h2>Got A Bike to Sell?</h2>
<p class="BikeForSaleButton">
Yes
</p>
<p class="BikeForSaleButtonNo">
<a onclick="javascript:var div = document.getElementById('div2');div.parentNode.removeChild(div);" href ="">No</a></p>
</div>
</div>
The onclick event handler needs to supress the links default behavior to navigate to what's specified in the href attribute.
so you need href="#" also you dont need that javascript:
It should be like this:
<p class="BikeForSaleButtonNo">
No</p>
Here is a link to show the working code:
http://jsfiddle.net/dkU7B/1/
Edit: Forgot to mention another thing you can do is get rid of the onclick entirely and just use the href with javascript like so, but now you will need to use the javascript: just a neat trick.
No
You need an href="#", and I would separate your HTML and JS, it's just cleaner IMO:
<script>
var div = document.getElementById('div2');
function rmv() {
div.parentNode.removeChild(div);
}
</script>
<div id='div2'>
<div class="DoYouHaveADirtBikeForSaleBox" id="DoYouHaveADirtBikeForSaleBox">
<h2>Got A Bike to Sell?</h2>
<p class="BikeForSaleButton">
Yes
</p>
<p class="BikeForSaleButtonNo">
No</p>
</div>
</div>
I have a page with two divs in it, one inside the other like so:
<div id='one'>
<div id='two'></div>
</div>
I want div one to change class when it is clicked on, then change back when div two is selected.
I'm completely new to javascript, but I've managed to find a simple command that makes div one change when I click it.
<div id='one' class='a' onclick="this.className='b';">
<div id='two'></div>
</div>
Now I just need an equally simple way to change div one back when number two is clicked.
I've tried changing "this.className" to "one.classname," and for some reason that worked when I was working with images, but it doesn't work at all with divs
<div id='one' class='a' onclick="this.className='b';">
<div id='two' onclick="one.className='a';">
This does not work.
</div>
</div>
Essentially I'm wondering if there is a substitute for the javascript "this" that I can use to target other elements.
I've found several scripts that will perform the action I'm looking for, but I don't want to have to use a huge, long, complicated script if there is another simple one like the first I found.
You can use document.getElementById
<div id='two' onclick="document.getElementById('one').className='a'; return false;">
This does not work.
</div>
This would work:
document.getElementById('one').className = 'a';
you could get the element by id with:
document.getElementById("one")
I want to insert an opening div but it closes itself automatically. How do I get this to work.
I want to wrap thses two divs in one div called controls...
<div class="carousel-prev prev-next"></div>
<div class="carousel-next prev-next"></div>
So I get...
<div id="controls">
<div class="carousel-prev"></div>
<div class="carousel-next"></div>
</div>
I did try:
$(".jcarousel-prev").before("<div id='controls'>");
But as I mentioned above, it closes automatically.
$(".prev-next").wrapAll("<div id='controls'>");
in your particular case you're removing class too i.e.
$(".prev-next").removeClass('prev-next').wrapAll("<div id='controls'>");
You can use .wrapAll():
$(".prev-next).wrapAll('<div />');
You should use wrap function to achieve that:
http://api.jquery.com/wrap/
try this...
$(".prev-next").appendTo("<div id='controls'>");
I want to be able to reuse the same function many times on one page..
So here's some psuedo-code :
$(".read_more").click(function(){
$(this).parents().find(".hidden_text").slideToggle("fast")
});
The problem with this code, however, is that it targets every elem on the page matching .hidden_text. Is there a way to combine closest() with this? Or is there a better way to refactor this?
Update:
HTML:
<div class="grid_2">
<div class="read_more">
Click Me
</div>
</div>
<div class="grid_2">
<div id=".hidden_text">
Bagels are the most resourceful tools to the most legendary programmers.
</div>
</div>
I think
$(this).closest("*:has(.hidden_text)").find(".hidden_text").slideToggle("fast");
will work.
You'll want to add 'return false' to stop jumping
$(".read_more").click(function(){
$(this).next(".hidden_text").slideToggle("fast");
return false;
});
And obviously add to css
.hidden_text {
display:none
}
if the hidden content is at the same level that your read more link, ie:
<div>
blbalbblal allalfdk
<a class="readmore">read more</a>
<div class="hidden-text" style="display:none">other bla bla bla</div>
</div>
Then you can use the next selector
$(".readmore").click(function(){
$(this).next(".hidden_text").slideToggle("fast")
});
I'm trying to use next() to toggle a div. The problem is that the "trigger" is in a different div than the one I want to toggle. An example that works:
$("span.trigger").click(function(){
$(this).next("div.task_description").slideToggle("fast");
});
<span class="trigger">The trigger</span>
<div class="task_description ">
some content
</div>
But the way I need the html setup is:
<div>
<span class="trigger">The trigger</span>
</div>
<div class="task_description ">
some content
</div>
That doesn't work... any suggestions?
In this case you need a .parent() as well, like this:
$("span.trigger").click(function(){
$(this).parent().next("div.task_description").slideToggle("fast");
});
Alternatively, if your nesting may change, you can go up to the <div> you're in, like this:
$(this).closest("div").next("div.task_description").slideToggle("fast");
