Java HtmlUnit click on anchor link does not work. How do I get the new page?

I'm trying to click on a "More" anchor tag on a website using HtmlUnit in order to expand a list until the more anchor tag does not exist.
page = client.getPage(url);
HtmlAnchor anchor;
while((anchor = page.getFirstByXPath("//a[#class='load-more list']")) != null) {
page = (HtmlPage) anchor.getPage();
}
I've also tried page = anchor.click();
System.out.println(anchor) shows
HtmlAnchor[ a
href="/guideitem/list/?id=g407&requestType=browse&filter=ZmlsdGVyPXMlM2FmcmVlJmxpbWl0PTMw"
class="load-more list" data-hijax="false" ]
I will continue to look into this problem and post what I find here.

I've had a somewhat similar problem, hope this helps.
It "solved itself" after we disabled CSS on the WebClient:
webClient.getOptions().setCssEnabled(false);
My anchor was:
<div class="my-anchors-parent-class"/>
Search
</div>
It had some JQuery attaching the .click() handler to it, who acted based on the 'class' property of my anchor's parent:
$('.my-anchor's-parent-class').each(function () {
$(this).children('a').click(function () {
// if parent has another given class appended, call .myFunction(this)
// else, call other function
});
});
When we reenable the CSS, the .click() is broken again.

Show/Hide div using if then statement (javascript)

I have this show/hide set up here: http://jsfiddle.net/TwDSx/38/
What I would like to do is have the plus sign go away if the content is showing and vise versa if the content isn't showing hide the minus sign and show the plus.
I read articles on this using images to swap out, but nothing with just using html/css. Also, I would like to keep the javascript out of the html if this is possible, and just call for it externally.
any help is appreciated!

EDIT :
You can attach an event handler on your click to toggle the display attribute of the + or - button
$('#hide,#show').click(function(){
$('#hide,#show').toggle();
})
Quick demo:
http://jsfiddle.net/TwDSx/39/

I modified your Javascript a little and extended it so you can keep it in an external file, you just need to ensure you hide the #show div with CSS if you load the page with the content already showing, or vice-versa for the #hide.
The Javascript is as follows:
$('#show').click(function() {
ShowClick();
});
$('#hide').click(function() {
HideClick();
});
//This Javascript can be external
function ShowClick() {
$('#content').toggle('slow');
$('#hide, #show').toggle();
};
function HideClick() {
$('#content').toggle('fast');
$('#show, #hide').toggle();
};
The Js-Fiddle can be seen here: http://jsfiddle.net/mtAeg/

I think the simplest solution is to have only one button, #toggle, and to change the content of that button like so:
$('#toggle').click(function () {
if (this.innerHTML == '-') {
$('#content').slideUp('fast');
this.innerHTML = '+';
} else {
$('#content').slideDown('slow');
this.innerHTML = '-';
}
});

Problems getting values into a dynamic variable in javascript

selectedsong div has differents links with differents rel=""... and the problems is...
I'm using that:
selectedBtn = $('#selectedsong a');
selectedBtn.click(function()
{
self.selectedsong($(this).attr('rel'));
return false;
});
selectedsong: function(number)
{
$('#selectedsong').html('new content with new links, rel, and more...');
selectedBtn = $('#selectedsong a'); <---- THE PROBLEM IS HERE,
}
The problem is that, in the first click it works properly, but when the #selectedsong content change, selectedBtn = $('#selectedsong a'); don't work properly, because the selectedBtn.click(function() doesn't work :'(
Thank you very much!

Use
$('#selectedsong').on('click','a',function(e)
{
e.preventDefault(); // prevent default behavior of anchor click
self.selectedsong($(this).attr('rel'));
//return false; dont use return false as it does more work than you need
});
selectedsong: function(number)
{
$('#selectedsong').html('new content with new links, rel, and more...');
}
As your HTML content changes you need to use event delegation.
read more on .on()

I think the problem is that you changed the html inside #selectedsong, and that removed your <a> tag from it, and that's what you're trying to do a select on, is the <a> tag inside #selectedsong. Maybe you could try and just select #selectedsong instead of the anchor tag? Or when you change the html, change the html of #selectedsong a.

How do I run a jQuery function when any link (a) on my site is clicked

I have a new site build on corecommerce system which does not have much access to HTML and non to PHP. Only thing I can use is JavaScript. Their system is currently not great on page load speed so I wanted at least customers to know something is happening while they wait 5-8 seconds for a page to load. So I found some pieces of code and put them together to show an overlay loading GIF while page is loading. Currently it will run if you click anywhere on the page but I want it to run only when a link (a href) on the site is clicked (any link).
I know you can do a code that will run while page loading but this isn't good enough as it will execute too late (after few seconds)
Anyway, this is my website www.cosmeticsbynature.com and this is the code I use. Any help will be great.
<div id="loading"><img src="doen'tallowmetopostanimage" border=0></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var ld=(document.all);
var ns4=document.layers;
var ns6=document.getElementById&&!document.all;
var ie4=document.all;
if (ns4)
ld=document.loading;
else if (ns6)
ld=document.getElementById("loading").style;
else if (ie4)
ld=document.all.loading.style;
jQuery(document).click(function()
{
if(ns4){ld.visibility="show";}
else if (ns6||ie4)
var pb = document.getElementById("loading");
pb.innerHTML = '<img src="http://www.cosmeticsbynature.com/00222-1/design/image/loading.gif" border=0>';
ld.display="block";
});
</script>

Doing this will be easier if you include jQuery in your pages. Once that is done, you can do:
$('a').click(function() {
// .. your code here ..
return true; // return true so that the browser will navigate to the clicked a's href
}

//to select all links on a page in jQuery
jQuery('a')
//and then to bind an event to all links present when this code runs (`.on()` is the same as `.bind()` here)
jQuery('a').on('click', function () {
//my click code here
});
//and to bind to all links even if you add them after the DOM initially loads (`on()` is the same as `.delegate()` here; with slightly different syntax, the event and selector are switched)
jQuery(document).on('click', 'a', function () {
//my click code here
});
Note: .on() is new in jQuery 1.7.

what you are doing is binding the click handler to the document so where ever the user will click the code will be executed, change this piece of code
jQuery(document).click(function()
to
jQuery("a").click(function()

$("a").click(function(){
//show the busy image
});

How about this - I assume #loading { display:none}
<div id="loading"><img src="http://www.cosmeticsbynature.com/00222-1/design/image/loading.gif" border=0></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById('loading').style.display='block'; // show the loading immediately
window.onload=function()
document.getElementById('loading').style.display='none'; // hide the loading when done
}
</script>

A problem that I see in most of the answers given is that people assume click events only come from <a> (anchor) tags. In my practice, I often add click events to span and li tags. The answers given do not take those into consideration.
The solution below sniffs for elements that contain both events, which are created with jQuery.click(function(){}) or <htmlelement onclick="" />.
$(document).ready(function(){
// create jQuery event (for test)
$('#jqueryevent').click(function(){alert('jqueryevent');});
// loop through all body elements
$('body *').each(function(){
// check for HTML created onclick
if(this.onclick && this.onclick.toString() != ''){
console.log($(this).text(), this.onclick.toString());
}
// jQuery set click events
if($(this).data('events')){
for (key in($(this).data('events')))
if (key == 'click')
console.log( $(this).text()
, $(this).data('events')[key][0].handler.toString());
}
});
});
Using the above, you might want to create an array and push elements found into the array (every place you see console.log

Load Html Content if not exist JQuery AJAX

I have a page with 3 buttons. >Logos >Banners >Footer
When any of these 3 buttons clicked it does jquery post to a page which returns HTML content in response and I set innerhtml of a div from that returned content . I want to do this so that If I clicked Logo and than went to Banner and come back on Logo it should not request for content again as its already loaded when clicked 1st time.
Thanks .

Sounds like to be the perfect candidate for .one()
$(".someItem").one("click", function(){
//do your post and load the html
});
Using one will allow for the event handler to trigger once per element.

In the logic of the click handler, look for the content having been loaded. One way would be to see if you can find a particular element that comes in with the content.
Another would be to set a data- attribute on the elements with the click handler and look for the value of that attribute.
For example:
$(".myElements").click(function() {
if ($(this).attr("data-loaded") == false {
// TODO: Do ajax load
// Flag the elements so we don't load again
$(".myElements").attr("data-loaded", true);
}
});
The benefit of storing the state in the data- attribute is that you don't have to use global variables and the data is stored within the DOM, rather than only in javascript. You can also use this to control script behavior with the HTML output by the server if you have a dynamic page.

try this:
HTML:
logos<br />
banner<br />
footer<br />
<div id="container"></div>
JS:
$(".menu").bind("click", function(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
var
data = $(this).attr("data");
type = $(this).attr("type");
if ($("#container").find(".logos").length > 0 && data == "logos") {
$("#container").find(".logos").show();
return false;
}
var htmlappend = $("<div></div>")
.addClass(type)
.addClass(data);
$("#container").find(".remover-class").remove();
$("#container").find(".hidde-class").hide();
$("#container").append(htmlappend);
$("#container").find("." + data).load("file_" + data + "_.html");
return false;
});

I would unbind the click event when clicked to prevent further load requests
$('#button').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#button').unbind('click');
$('#result').load('ajax/test.html ' + 'someid', function() {
//load callback
});
});
or use one.click which is a better answer than this :)

You could dump the returned html into a variable and then check if the variable is null before doing another ajax call
var logos = null;
var banners = null;
var footer = null;
$(".logos").click(function(){
if (logos == null) // do ajax and save to logos variable
else $("div").html(logos)
});

Mark nailed it .one() will save extra line of codes and many checks hassle. I used it in a similar case. An optimized way to call that if they are wrapped in a parent container which I highly suggest will be:
$('#id_of_parent_container').find('button').one("click", function () {
//get the id of the button that was clicked and do the ajax load accordingly
});
