Javascript event on form add fields - javascript

I've got a rails app using bootstrap with a form page that has the option to add additional form fields. The tutorial from this Railscast episode heavily influenced this form page add fields feature. I have a need to watch the add fields so that I can hide a warning panel in the new well created. Here is the code that will not work(in coffeescript):
$('#classifications_forms').on 'change', (event) ->
container = $('.classifications_form').last()
$('#premium-divide', container).hide()
Here is the code in jquery:
$('#classifications_forms').on('change', function(event) {
var container;
container = $('.classifications_form').last();
return $('#premium-divide', container).hide();
});
I have tried an on click event for the add fields button, but it's late in the event watching as it will not hide the panel. If I hit the button a second time, it will hide the panel on the previously created well, so I know the code was working to hide the panel. My thinking is to hide the panel on the last well created, and I thought that a change on #classifications_forms would give me the event needed to hide the last well, but I guess its missing something on the event. What is missing above?
Here is a jsfiddle demonstrating the problem.

Because I was using bootstrap, I found a class to apply to the panel which took care of my problem:
.hidden

JQuery, Creating form inputs via button not working with form list

so I have this basic bootstrap form and I have a button called add another location which will dynamically create another 4 inputs to add more location. This is achieved via jquery and jquery UI. So I made 3 copies of this form and put them in a list because eventually, they are going to come from a server and loop the form depends on however many sets of information available. The problem I am having is that, only my first add another location button works and it's creating additional inputs on the second and third one as well. I can give different id/class to the buttons where the new form goes but that wouldn't do me any good since more or fewer forms can be displayed via the server. My question is how can each button act independently without giving different id/class to it. so if I click add another location button on the second set of form, it only creates additional inputs on the second set not first or 3rd, same for 1st set and 3rd set.
this is the jquery code that clones and appends the new inputs
$("#pm-do-clone1").click(function () {
$(".pm-clone-this3 .pm-clone4").clone().appendTo(".pm-clone-here1");
});
here's my jsfiddle : https://jsfiddle.net/jaisilchacko/yqvd4Lvv/4/
ps: the fiddle the first add location is not creating new inputs, but it works on my local.Probably an external resource issue
alright, as I understand You gotta grab the clicked button by referancing it with;
$("#pm-do-clone1").click(function () {
$(this).//rest of the code
and at the rest of the code as we captured the clicked one, we now have to find its parent where we gonna add the new inputs. For example,
var y = document.createElement('input');
var x =$(this).parents('.form');
$(x).append(y);
Edit: Btw, you are clicking an ID, ID is not the best model to catch one from multiple elemets because it sometimes make mistakes, use class instead.
Edit2: Check this snippet too. I belive this will help you. View DEMO
Edit3: Why do you wrapping each inputs into divs? It seems not necessary no create too much elements as you could achive the same result with only inputs.

How to use Popover inside a Angularjs function

My problem is pretty weird and unique. I will do my best to explain my situation here.
I have a form validation. Once user fills form and selects add button, it allows to add for first 6 times. After 6th submission, the add button is disabled and user is not allowed to add any further.
Here is the add button function
$scope.addItem = function () {
$scope.items.push($scope.activeItem);
if ($scope.items.length > 6) {
$scope.disableAdd = true
// here is the code below where i want to insert my popover function.
}
}
Can anyone please let me know how to insert a popover like this at run time. Please note: i dont want to show a popover straight away as the page loads and user selects the button. I want to show it only after User has submitted 6 forms. The number of times the user submitted is shown in $scope.items.length
I just want to display something back to the user that he cannot add any more. I tried using a modal but i thought popover would be much better. Any suggestions are welcome.....
There's a ton of ways to do this. If your popover exists statically in the dom, you could just trigger it with the same scope boolean you're using to disable the button with the ng-if directive:
<div class="popover" ng-if="disabledAdd">No more forms allowed<div/>

select asp.net grid view row on jquery dialog box and populate on text fields on parent form

I have an asp.net page that contains gridview. It has one or more record. If a user choose a row, it will close jquery dialog modal and populate parent form
I have attached the sample. It does not look nice, but it is easier for me to create in word than try to prototype on ASP.NET
Once user click the button (pick this one), let's say first one, id (1) and name (a) will be populated on the parent page
I have researched many websites. Most websites have helpful hints if there is a static button. When a user click the button, something happen. However, the griview is constructed dynamically, so are the buttons. Obvious, binding the button on jquery dialog box model will not work.
What is the best approach to handle this
Thank you
Why wont Jquery work? I'm sure the buttons have an id or name..
`$('#tableID tbody').on("click", "tr td:nth-child(1) a", function () {
var $row = $(this).closest("tr");
var ID = $row.find('$row td:nth-child(2) label').val();
$.get("/Home/MyModal/" +ID, function (data) {
$("#modalDiv").html(data);
$("#modal").modal('show');
});
});`
In the example I make a call to the mvc controller which returns a partial view loaded with the modal data. That html data returned from the controller is then passed to a div with an ID of 'modalDiv'. Then I open the modal using modal.show event.
Not sure if this is what you were looking for but this will load a modal with the information
I did a lot research. I ended using postmessage method.
http://benalman.com/code/projects/jquery-postmessage/examples/iframe/
I really don't like this solution. I am doing research on security risk related to postmessage. if anyone has better, let me know.
Here is the algorithm
1) Once the user clicks one of the links/buttons (remember they can be multiple rows), save the current row information in the hidden fields
2) call javascript to postmessage (see the link)
3) in the parent listen to the event (see the link)
4) assign the hidden fields to the various text fields on the parent form
5) oh reference the fields in iframe is little bit tricky. Luckily, someone on the internet shows me this trick
http://codedisplay.com/jquery-to-get-set-read-access-iframe-content-textbox-value-data-using-asp-net-c-vb-net/
6) close jquery dialog box
My original plan was creating some kind of events on dialog box during the creation to do all the work. I am hoping people here can help me that.
At least i figure out the solution. I just need to address the security issue.

How do I destroy all instances of Bootstrap Popover?

I have a single page app using Backbone, and whenever I over over something and then click the "back" button, the popover forever stays.
I want to destroy all instances of popover when a new instance is loaded.
Finding the popovers that are created through the data API is not difficult and has been covered in other answers like those of David Mulder and Amir Popovich. You just do:
$("[data-toggle='popover']").popover('hide');
Or you can use destroy if you need to or prefer to.
The challenge is to handle those popovers that are created dynamically.
Marking the Elements with Popovers
I would implement something like this. I'd override the default popover method and I'd try to perform this override as early as possible so that everything that needs a popover uses my override. What it does is just mark elements that use a popover with a class. Bootstrap does not mark them itself:
// Override popover so as to mark everything that uses a popover.
var old_popover = $.fn.popover;
function my_popover() {
this.addClass('marked-as-having-a-popover');
return old_popover.apply(this, arguments);
}
$.fn.popover = my_popover;
Then to clear everything before the unloading, I'd put in the code that detects the unloading the following:
$(".marked-as-having-a-popover").popover('hide');
Or it could use destroy rather than hide if testing shows that it works better for your use-case.
Now, the method above will work if the override happens early enough and you do not have a page where multiple jQueries are loaded. (Yep, this is possible.) I use something similar to deal with tooltips in one of my applications so I know the principle is sound. It so happens that in my app, all tooltips are created by my code so there is no risk of missing something.
Finding All Elements with Popovers, Even Unmarked
If you are in a situation where a popover can be created without being marked (I call this an "escapee"), then you need to query the whole DOM and find which elements have popovers. There is no shortcut here. You cannot rely on attributes like data-content because popovers can be created wholly dynamically (i.e. without any of the data- attributes). Also, all kinds of elements can get popovers, so you cannot reliably assume that only button elements will have a popover. The only surefire way to find everything that needs handling is to look at each element in the DOM and check whether it has a popover:
// Obviously this is quite expensive but in a situation where there *can* be escapees
// then you have to check all elements to see if they have a popover.
$("*").each(function () {
// Bootstrap sets a data field with key `bs.popover` on elements that have a popover.
// Note that there is no corresponding **HTML attribute** on the elements so we cannot
// perform a search by attribute.
var popover = $.data(this, "bs.popover");
if (popover)
$(this).popover('hide');
});
Again, destroy could be used rather than hide.
Proof of Concept
Here is a fiddle that illustrates the entire thing:
"Add a Dynamic Popover" simulates code that would add a popover when the override is in effect.
"Add an Escapee" simulates code that would add a popover and somehow manage to use the original Bootstrap code.
"Clear Marked" clears only the marked popovers.
"Clear All" clears every single popover marked or not.
try with this:
$('YOUR_ELEMENT_SELECTOR').popover('dispose');
reference url: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/components/popovers/
Its very simple, just you have to call one function popover() with argument "destroy" to destroy the popover. It will destroy all popovers which is created by $("[data-toggle=popover]").popover();
you can check documentation for more options and arguments of popover().
I suggest you to destroy popovers with having specific class name instead of using following code.
$("[data-toggle='popover']").popover('destroy');
The above code will destroy all popovers in the page. So instead of this, use class selector.
$(".YourClassName").popover('destroy');
If you have problems and need to remove all for sure:
$('.popover').remove();
will help (Popover automatic add this class, even for dynamicly created objects). It destroys all the popover DOM-Object incl. callbacks, etc.
But thats the rough way. Typically I displose all by popover class (clean way) and to be sure I do a hard clean up after. Works for me fine!
$('.popover').popover('dispose');
$('.popover').remove();
If you like to remove all execpt one, use a filter() with :not-Selector
$('.popover').filter(':not(#yourID)').popover('dispose');
$('.popover').filter(':not(#yourID)').remove();
popover adds also a id with a random number
#popoverxxxxx where xxxxx is a five digit number.
this helps sometimes to compare popovers. Of cause this could also be used to identify the popovers.
Something generic like this (assuming you're using data-bindings) should do the trick:
$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover('hide')
or the more extreme call
$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover('destroy')
though I doubt that would make sense often. Still to address the specific bug you're encountering you should create a minimal test case so that that bug itself can be addressed.
Oh and if you specifically want to check for open popovers you can use .data("bs.popover").$tip.parent().length (which is a bit of an hack), for example:
$('[data-toggle="popover"]:eq(0)').data("bs.popover").$tip.parent().length == 1
You can hide all popovers by using this:
$("[data-toggle='popover']").popover('hide');
You can destroy all popovers by using this:
$("[data-toggle='popover']").popover('destroy');
The difference between hide and destory is that when you hide a popover you do not need to reactive it, but when you destroy it you do.
Check out my JSFIDDLE and then:
Click on all popovers and then click hide. After clicking hide you can click on the popovers again.
Click on all popovers and then click destroy. After clicking destroy try clicking on the popovers again and see that nothing will happen since they are destroyed. In order to make them functional again, you will need to click on reactive and then try.
Popovers must be initialized manually, so you know exactly what you have to destroy because you did initialize it.
You should just call the destroy function with the same selector.
Or maybe I am missing something ?

jQuery Toggle Divs Expand When JavaScript do_PostBack Link Is Clicked

I am working on a new site TheDigitalScale and I am using jQuery to create a feature list that expands a div when clicked and closes the div with another click.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
//hide the all of the element with class msg_body
$(".msg_body").hide();
//toggle the componenet with class msg_body
$(".msg_head").click(function()
{
$(this).toggleClass("msg_head2").next(".msg_body").slideToggle(100);
});
});
</script>
<div class="msg_list">
<p class="msg_head">They Forgot The Buttons</p>
<div class="msg_body"><p>
Just kidding. The MXT has nifty touchscreen controls so you never have to worry about buttons getting dirty or broken.
</p></div>
</div>
It works fine and all but, I also have a product review link that uses the JavaScript do_PostBack function to expand a review panel.
Review and Rate this item
When the review link is clicked, it causes all of the jQuery divs to expand.
When I set enablepartialrendering to false and it "fixes" the problem but when the review link is clicked it takes the user to the top of the page and expands the review panel rather than just expanding the review panel and keeping the user in the right spot.
I hope I explained this well enough; I am very new to jQuery, JavaScript and AJAX.
Regards,
Shala
EDIT:
I suppose I didn't really ask a question so...
What can I change to make the review link expand the review panel and keep the user in the area without also expanding every one of the jQuery divs?
Here is a link to a product page: MBSC-55
It looks like you have nested updatepanels. Try setting the UpdateMode property of the parent panel to Conditional to prevent the child updatepanel from triggering the parent updatepanel.
Okay, I think I see what's happening. When your page loads you execute this code:
$(document).ready(function(){
//hide the all of the element with class msg_body
$(".msg_body").hide();
//toggle the componenet with class msg_body
$(".msg_head").click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass("msg_head2").next(".msg_body").slideToggle(100);
});
});
Now, when .net does the postback it is re-creating those .msg_body and .msg_head elements. The best solution would be to get .net to not replace those (unless you need them to).
If you need those to re-draw, you can do 2 things. First, set .msg_body to be hidden in your css, that way they are hidden by default. Then to handle the click issue, replace your click code with this:
$(".msg_head").live("click", function() {
$(this).toggleClass("msg_head2").next(".msg_body").slideToggle(100);
});
This will cause the click handler to still work for newly added .msg_head items.
