In my application, when the session gets time out a modal window asking for a password gets dispalyed. When I click the submit button, the event doesn't get fired and It again triggers the session call.The screen gets properly redirected but the thing is I can't invoke any javascript function from the modal window. What will be the problem?
most likely due to the fact that when you dynamically add an element you have to assign click event like this:
$("h2").on('click', 'p.test', function() {
alert('you clicked a p.test element');
});
Need to see your code but its what i ran into a while back. good luck.

I'm working on a page that opens a modal window when the user clicks a certain radio button. I want to trigger whatever that event handler is via my own jQuery code. Right now, I'm attempting to mimic a user clicking on the radio button by:
$("#myRadioButton").trigger("click");
The code works somewhat. The state of the radio button does become selected. However, the modal window does not open.
What must I do to trigger the events and event handlers that make the modal window open?
(Also, is there a way in Chrome DevTools to see what events are attached to an element?)
This will make the click function work, with a id on the element. You will need to make some logic for the modal itself, inside the function.
Not sure there is a way to see the events in the developer console.
$( "#myRadioButton" ).click(function() {
//Whatever you wants to happen, when you click the button
alert( "You clicked on #myRadioButton" );
});

I am having the following issue with click/touchstart event on Android (as far as I know only happening on Android),
1. the element triggers a modal window.
2. one of the buttons/links inside this modal gets triggered instantly without giving the user the option to make a choice.
It is of course required for the visitor/user to view the modal content before being redirected to a link to another page from one of those buttons.
I believe this is due to the 'touchstart' event bind to this div, which I am using since click events on divs for touch devices don't work.
I am using jQuery to make this work, and on iOS there doesn't seem to appear any issue.
$(document).on('click touchstart','.mydiv', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
// open modal
});
Any suggestions please.
Try this:
$(.mydiv).on('touchstart', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
// open modal
});
cheers
A bit of a weird situation here. I know this is far from the ideal setup, but this is what I am stuck working with, without much leniency to approach it a different way.
Basically, I have a modal window, which has an email signup form embedded via iframe.
I have a script inside of the iframe that sets a class to the main modal when the submit button is pressed. To set the class on the modal, I am using the following:
$(document).on("click", "#submit-btn", function(e) {
window.parent.$("#modal-popup").addClass("submitted");
}
I have verified that this code works fine. In inspector, whenever I press the submit button, I see the "submitted" class gets added to the modal.
However... outside of the iframe, I have another script running, that checks when the users presses the close button on the modal.
I want it so that if the modal has the class of "submitted", it does one thing - but if it doesn't have that class, it does something else.
So I have the following:
$(".close-exit-modal").on("click", function(e) {
if ($("#modal-popup").hasClass("submitted")) {
//do something
} else {
//do something else
}
});
Unfortunately, every single time I try the script, the "do something else" runs. The modal clearly shows that it has the proper class - and for the life of me, I can't figure out why this script wont recognize it.
Any ideas what's going on here?
Since you appear to have the ability to change the parent, that to me signifies that you are on the same domain. So potentially you could do some different things.
$(document).on("click", "#submit-btn", function(e) {
window.parent.$("#modal-popup").addClass("submitted");
//directly call a method in the parent to let it know the class changed
window.parent.modalPopupWasSubmitted();
});
$(document).on("click", "#submit-btn", function(e) {
window.parent.$("#modal-popup").addClass("submitted");
//trigger a custom event that your parent page can have an event listener for
$(window.parent).trigger('modalWasSubmitted');
});
Optionally, depending on the browser support you need, you could also potentially use a postMessage to let the parent know that something happened. Ref. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage
I have a silverlight application in which I need to fire signout event if user navigates away.
I have tried a sample function as
window.onunload = function test() { alert("test"); }
The problem is when I navigate away from the webpage the event fires, but I need this event to fire when user closed browser or tab.
In my case it was not necessary that the page prompts user if he is sure he wants to exit. So I called my signout method inside the 'window.onbeforeunload' event(also flashed a message box to so that webservice gets enough time to successfully signout).
Also used
document.onbeforeunload = undefined;
inside my 'window.onbeforeunload' event to avoid the confirmation window.
I have a very simple click handler that makes an AJAX GET request on click like so:
$('span.switch-option').click(function() {
$(this).parents('div.log-in-option').hide();
$(this).parents('div.log-in-option').siblings('div.log-in-option').fadeIn();
});
This works perfectly anywhere else on the website. However, when I try to click a <span> element with the class switch-option inside a modal window, the event does not fire. Entering the contents of the click-handler function in the console and running them does perform the desired behavior, however.
Why will the click handler not fire in this modal window? I am using the popular SimpleModal plugin http://www.ericmmartin.com/projects/simplemodal/ and jQuery 1.9.1.
A live example is here: http://ec2-107-22-8-70.compute-1.amazonaws.com/thread/19. If you click the 50,000 reps or any user's reputation then try to click the big blue link in the dialog, the click handler does not fire. This behavior happens with other click handlers in different modal windows as well.
When your script(main.js) is running the elements 'li.log-in, a.log-in' does not exists in the dom, they are loaded dynamically when the popup is created thus jQuery is not able to bind the event handlers
Try event propagation
$(document).on('click', 'li.log-in, a.log-in', function() {
$.get('/login/', function(data) {
//make a modal window with the html
$.modal(data);
});
return false;
});
