I'm trying to make a side menu that opens and closes from the left when you press the menu button.
Got the css, html code running properly but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with the script. It works perfectly but only once: When I press the menu button it comes out, press it again and it goes back just as intended. The problem is if I press it again it shows and it goes back by itself. Can anyone help me?
Here is my script:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.menu-icon').click(function(){
$('#navigator').animate({left:'0px'},200);
$(this).animate({left:'250px'},200);
$('.menu-icon').click(function(){
>$('#navigator').animate({left:'-250px'},200);
>$(this).animate({left:'0px'},200);
});
});
>});
You have placed a click handler inside a click handler so it will run multiple times. Twice first time, then three times, then four times etc.
You need to have a single handler and decide how to animate based on the current state of the element. e.g. something like the following (not tested):
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.menu-icon').click(function () {
if ($('#navigator').css("left") != "0px") {
$('#navigator').animate({
left: '0px'
}, 200);
$(this).animate({
left: '250px'
}, 200);
} else {
$('#navigator').animate({
left: '-250px'
}, 200); > $(this).animate({
left: '0px'
}, 200);
}
});
});
I would suggest testing the "current state" using a class you toggle on the element as testing css values is notoriously unreliable during animation.
e.g. something like:
if ($('#navigator').toggleClass("open").hasClass("open")) {
Here you are attaching the click event listener two times. One normal and one after clicking, thats why its happening use jquery toggle
or use in this way
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.menu-icon').click(function(){
var navigator = $('#navigator');
if(navigator.offset().left == 0)
{
navigator.animate({left:'-250px'},200);
$(this).animate({left:'0px'},200);
}
else
{
navigator.animate({left:'0px'},200);
$(this).animate({left:'250px'},200);
}
});
});

Im working on a function who's triggering events when we scroll down the page but I need it to trigger the events only once and I can't figure out how to use .one() in my case. Could you give me a hand please ?
$(window).bind('scroll', function() {
if($(window).scrollTop() >= $('.sized').offset().top + $('.sized').outerHeight() - window.innerHeight)
{
$(".rotate").toggleClass("down"),
jQuery('.skill-bar').each(function()
{
jQuery(this).find('.skill-fill').animate(
{
width:jQuery(this).attr('data-percent')
}, 4000);
});
}
});
The main problem is that $(".rotate").toggleClass("down") triggers each time I reach the anchor and I want it to trigger only once.
The other function just set some divs to a certain width so it dont really matter since they dont go back to their original width:
Thanks for your help.
I have a button which creates a pulldown in which you can select several categories.
Now i want this to close automatically when i click outside the pulldown.
Something like a lightbox or modal popup which closes if you click anywhere else on the page.
Now i have to click the button again to close it. If i dont and go elsewhere on the page, the dropdown stays visible (until i click it)
This is the code of the button:
$(function(){
$('#browse-btn').click(function(){
$('#browse-content').toggle('1000');
$(this).toggleClass('active');
if ($(this).hasClass('active')) $(this).find('span').html('▲')
else $(this).find('span').html('▼')
});
$(".scroll-top").scrollToTop();
$("#category_id").selectbox();
});
Is this possible?
thanks
Using jquery this is the code I used for a similar case scenario sometime ago:
$(document).click(function(event) {
if(!$(event.target).closest('.pulldown').length) {
if($('.pulldown').is(":visible")) {
$('.pulldown').slideUp()
}
}
})
You can read more about this in the original post How to detect a click outside an element? submitted by Art.
I'm not exactly sure of the elements you want to hide as you don't have a demo, so I cannot provide a fully working code, however you should do something like this:
$("body").click(function(event) {
if (event.target.id != "browse-btn") {
// Do something when there's a click outside of #browse-btn
// and the element you want to hide is currently visible
}
});
You can attach a click event to all chidren of the body tag that removes that active class, but you would want to make sure to unbind that event so it doesn't run every time a click takes place that doesn't have some sort of prevent default on it. Something like this:
$(function(){
var hidePulldown = function(){
$('#browse-btn').removeClass('active');
$('body *').unbind("click", hidePulldown);
}
$('#browse-btn').click(function(){
$('#browse-content').toggle('1000');
$(this).toggleClass('active');
if ($(this).hasClass('active')) $(this).find('span').html('▲')
else {
$(this).find('span').html('▼');
$(document).on('click', 'body *', hidePulldown);
}
});
$(".scroll-top").scrollToTop();
$("#category_id").selectbox();
});
Also, the
$(document).on('click', element, function(){function body})
is the preferred way to attach click events i believe: $(document).on('click', '#id', function() {}) vs $('#id').on('click', function(){})
This is what worked flawlessly for me after reading some of the answers here:
$(document).click(function(event) {
if(!$(event.target).closest('#menucontainer').length &&
!$(event.target).is('#menucontainer')) {
if($('#menucontainer').is(":visible")) {
$('#menucontainer').hide();
}
}
})
Thanks for pointing me in the right way!
I have a tooltip that appears when you mouseover a link. I want the tooltip to stay if you hover over it (because there are links and such in it), or disappear if you mouse away from the link.
I tried a couple things, but haven't figured it out. This is my first time building anything serious with jQuery.
The stuff below is what is in the .hover() 'handlerOut' event.
if($(this.a).mouseout())
{
if ($('.tip_container').hover()) {
$('.tip_container').css('display', 'block');
$('.tip_container').mouseleave(function() {
$('.tip_container').remove(0);
});
} else if ($('.tip_container').hover() == false && $(this.a).mouseoff() == true)
{
$('.tip_container').remove(0);
}
}
>>"this.a" refers to the link<<
With this and the other things I've tried the tooltip doesn't disappear unless you mouse over the off of it. I also tried
else if (!$('.tip_container').hover() && $(this.a).mouseoff()) {
Is it possible to have multiple conditions?
The main idea of the code is that if you mouse off of the link "this.a" the tooltip will be removed by:
$('.tip_container').remove(0);
but if you mouse over the tooltip it will not be removed until you mouse off of the tooltip.
Do you have a fiddle or anything to demonstrate?
Maybe something like
$(this, '.tip_container').hover(function () {
$('.tip_container').show();
}, function () {
$('.tip_container').hide();
}
);
Basically bind both the link and the tooltip elements to the hover method, which hides/shows the tooltip element on mouseenter/mouseleave. The link Pointy posted in comments is a good place to start
After a good nights rest and ignoring it for a while I figured out a solution. This is what I put in the hover handlerOut event.
var timer;
timer = setTimeout(function() {
$('.tip_container').remove();
}, 500);
$( '.tip_container' ).hover(
function() {
clearTimeout(timer);
$('.tip_container').css('display', 'block');
}, function() {
$('.tip_container').remove();
}
);
On the hover out of the link it will wait before executing the remove and if the mouse hovers over the tooltip it will clear the timer and set the tooltip to block to keep it displayed then on that hover out of the tooltip it will be removed.
I've looked around and researched why this isn't working, but it seems that I am in a sort of different situation.
I have a default action for a navigation item that handles the navigation animation on hover:
$('.logoCont').hover(function(){
someFunction()...
}, function (){
someFunctionReverse()...
});
Now, when it comes to being on the mobile screen, I hide the navigation and place a button there. The button then controls the animation of the menu sliding out from the side. I've added a line of code that adds a class to the navigation elements when this button is clicked.
$('.mobile-menuButton').click(function(){ //When you click the menu-show button
if($(this).hasClass('menuClosed')){ //Check to see if the menu is closed
$('.nav_hover').addClass('mobile_open'); //Add the mobile_open class to the navigation items
} else {
$('.nav_hover').removeClass('mobile_open'); //remove it
}
});
So then I changed the first hover function to say:
$('.nav_hover').not('.mobile_open').hover(function(){
someFunction()...
}, function (){
someFunctionReverse()...
});
I was hoping this would stop the someFunction() from happening when the mobile menu is out.
You can view what I'm doing HERE - When you reduce the screen to under 540px the media query will take effect and you can click on the menu button.
Documentation on .not() HERE. The second example at the end of the page is exactly what I was hoping for.
The class is added later and the event handler is attached to any and all elements that match the selector at pageload (or whenever it is executed) and doesn't really care about what you add later.
You have to check for the class inside the event handler
$('.nav_hover').hover(function(){
if ( !$(this).hasClass('mobile_open') ) {
someFunction()...
}
}, function (){
if ( !$(this).hasClass('mobile_open') ) {
someFunctionReverse()...
}
});
delegation could also work, but it wouldn't really work with not() or hover()
$(document).on({
mouseenter: function() {
someFunction()...
},
mouseleave: function() {
someFunctionReverse()...
}
}, '.nav_hover:not(.mobile_open)');
Hi guys im working on my first website and im trying to implement a sliding menu using jquery.
This is what a got so far :
<a href="javascript:void(0);"onmouseover="ShowBox();" onmouseout="HideBox();"">Show box<a>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ShowBox()
{
$("#SlideMenu").slideDown();
}
function HideBox()
{
$("#SlideMenu").slideUp();
}
</script>
When i MouseOver the control my menu slides down but slides back up automatically.
What I would like is to let the user the time to select and option from the menu and if he doesn't, i would like the menu to close as soon as the mouse leaves the control.
Any idea why this isn't working ?
Thanks in advance.
Do your stuff without the inline JS, and remember to close the <a> element and use a ready function
<a id="test">Show box</a>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#test").on({
mouseenter: function() {
$("#SlideMenu").slideDown();
},
mouseleave: function() {
$("#SlideMenu").slideUp();
},
click: function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
}
});
});
</script>
FIDDLE
As you're using jQuery I believe it would be beneficial for you to use something similar to:
$("#box").hover(
function() {
//.stop() to prevent propagation
$(this).stop().animate({"bottom": "200px"}, "fast");
},
function() {
$(this).stop().animate({"bottom": "0px"}, "fast");
}
);
What this will mean is that whilst the mouse is over the menu, the menu will stay in its open position. When the mouse exits the menu it will close. Obviously change the id, and animation CSS values to suit your needs :)!
Here is a working example:
http://jsfiddle.net/V3PYs/1/
Really there is no problem here - the script is doing exactly what you told it to. However, from what I understand, what you want is for the menu to stay open when you leave the "trigger" element if the user's mouse is now over the menu. Try this:
<script type="text/javascript">
var timeout=250;//timeout in milliseconds to wait before hiding the menu
var menuMouseout;
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#trigger").hover(function(){
$("#SlideMenu").slideDown();
}, function(){
menuMouseout=setTimeout("$('#SlideMenu').slideUp();", timeout);
});
$("#SlideMenu").hover(function(){
clearTimeout(menuMouseout);
}, function(){
menuMouseout=setTimeout("$('#SlideMenu').slideUp();", timeout);
});
});
</script>
This way, the user is left some time after mousing out of the trigger element to get to the menu. You might need to fiddle with the timeout, but this should work. I tested this and it seems to be working. Just be sure, if necessary, to wrap this in $(document).ready to make sure all elements are loaded and ready.

If you're using jQuery this would be the proper way to go about it:
Show box
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#showBoxHref").hover(function() {
$(this).slideDown();
}, function() {
$(this).slideUp();
});
</script>
(just copy/paste this in and it should work)
