I know this has been asked many times here, actually I found plenty of questions, each of them with a very good answer, I also followed those answers, used the different ways I found but I still don't get it to work.
What I'm trying to do is to load an image into a div, after clicking a link, instead of redirecting to a new page.
I'm using Pure Css (http://purecss.io/) to create a menu, the menu is made of a list, and each list item has a link inside it, like so:
<div class="pure-menu pure-menu-open" id="vertical-menu">
<a class="pure-menu-heading">Models</a>
<ul id="std-menu-items">
<li class="pure-menu-heading cat">Menu heading</li>
<li>Model 1</li>
</ul>
</div>
In that same html file, I have another div where I want to load the image:
<div id="model-map"></div>
I've tried the following ways, using jquery, in a separate js file:
I followed the selected answer for this question, which seemed to have the best approach (Can I get the image and load via ajax into div)
$(document).ready(function(){
console.log("ready"); //this shows on console
$('.model-selection').click(function () {
console.log("clicked"); //this doesn't show after clicking
var url = $(this).attr('href'),
image = new Image();
image.src = url;
image.onload = function () {
$('#model-map').empty().append(image);
};
image.onerror = function () {
$('#model-map').empty().html('That image is not available.');
}
$('#model-map').empty().html('Loading...');
return false;
});
});
As you see, the console.log("clicked") never executes, I'll be ashamed if it's something stupid, cause it seems that the function is not handling the click event properly.
I get the image of course, but in a new page (default behavior of clicking the href) and I want it to load on the div without being redirected. I hope you can help me.
Thanks in advance!
Edit
The code above is working, and both answers are correct, the issue was due to some code inside tags in my html ( YUI code to create the dropdowns for the menu) and it was conflicting with my js file. I moved it to the actual js file and now it works as expected.
Thanks!
You need to use event.stopPropagation();
$('.model-selection').click(function( event ) {
event.stopPropagation();
// add your code here
});
You just need to prevent the default behavior of moving to a new page for <a> tags, to do this say e.preventDefault() first:
...
$('.model-selection').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault(); // Stops the redirect
console.log("clicked"); // Now this works
...
)};
...

here's the structure of the code: http://jsfiddle.net/ss1ef7sq/
although it's not really working at js fiddle but the code itself is working as i've tested it locally through firefox.
this is where i've based this on: http://html.net/tutorials/javascript/lesson21.php
jquery/ajax:
$('#ep-101').click(function(){$('.main-container').load('link.html #ep101').hide().fadeIn(800);});
$('#ep-102').click(function(){$('.main-container').load('link.html #ep102').hide().fadeIn(800);});
$('#ep-103').click(function(){$('.main-container').load('link.html #ep103').hide().fadeIn(800);});
$('#ep-104').click(function(){$('.main-container').load('link.html #ep104').hide().fadeIn(800);});
$('#ep-105').click(function(){$('.main-container').load('link.html #ep105').hide().fadeIn(800);});
so my question is, is there a way to make it like a shorter code where it can just get the value of those #10ns or assuming that there will be a different page with it's own nest of unique ids without typing them individually? there's still a lot i don't understand with ajax so i'd appreciate it if anyone can help & explain at least the gist of it as well.
i've looked around online but i'm really stuck. i also at least found out that it's possible to add transitions but the way it's coded there is that it will only have the transition for the incoming page & not the one that will be replaced. i also have a prob with page loaders effects but i'll save it for when i'm stuck there as well.
thanks in advance. =)
Use classes instead of id's. Set href attribute which you want to load on click and access it via $(this).attr('href').
<a class="load-me" href="link1.html">link 1</a>
<a class="load-me" href="link2.html">link 2</a>
...
Script:
$('.load-me').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$('.main-container').hide().load($(this).attr('href'), function() {
// ...
$(this).fadeIn(800);
})
});
JSFiddle
If you need the load to wait container hiding animation, you could make it other way.
$('.load-me').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// get the url from clicked anchor tag
var url = $(this).attr('href');
// fade out the container and wait for animation complete
$('.main-container').fadeOut(200, /* animation complete callback: */ function(){
// container is hidden, load content:
$(this).load(url, /* load complete callback: */ function() {
// content is loaded, show container up
$(this).slideDown(200);
});
});
});

I have an image that is changed when I click on several links. The following javascript code works well :
<img src="myImage.png" id="mainImg" />
Report1
Report2
But I'm trying to change the code to use Jquery code instead. It calls the same server code as the javascript example. No errors are generated & a png is streamed back. But the image is not updated on the html page. To make things worst, the html moves to the top of the page. In the working javascript code, the image would fresh with a nice ajaxy feel where only the image would change & the rest of the page would not move. My Jquery code is below :
<img src="myImage.png" id="mainImg" />
Report1
Report2
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(e) {
$("#report1_id").click(function(e) {
alert("This Is Report1");
d = new Date();
$("#mainImg").attr("src", "http://localhost/convertToReport1.do?"+d.getTime());
});
$("#report2_id").click(function(e) {
alert("This Is Report2");
d = new Date();
$("#mainImg").attr("src", "http://localhost/convertToReport2.do?"+d.getTime());
});
});
</script>
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
From your code, the image src should change, but maybe it doesn't change to what you'd like. Make sure that http://localhost/convertToReport1.do returns exactly what you need (ideally, you can specify that in the question itself).
The page jump happens because of the anchors href attribute. Either remove it, or prevent the default anchor behaviour in your click handler function, like this:
$("#report1_id").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault(); // <--- this is the key, return false would also work at the end
alert("This Is Report1");
d = new Date();
$("#mainImg").attr("src", "http://localhost/convertToReport1.do?"+d.getTime());
});

As a way of learning CasperJS, I am trying to initiate a click event on a div on a remote page, and then change the class name of the div after I have clicked it. The idea is to find the first clickable div, click it, and then mark it as clicked so I can skip over it to other clickable divs. The markup for the div tag on the remote page looks like:
<div class='clickable_div'></div>
I have tried the following casperjs code:
...
casper.then(function() {
if( this.exists( 'div.clickable_div' ) ) {
this.evaluate(function() {
this.click(document.querySelector('div.clickable_div'));
return document.querySelector('div.clickable_div').setAttribute("className","clicked");
});
}
});
...
It doesn't seem to work. First, I don't think I am initiating the mouse click event on the div correctly. What am I missing? Second, when I fetch the updated html, I don't see any changes in the div's class name. Am I going about this step in the wrong way?
You're calling this.click within evaluate(), it just can't work as evaluate() executes code within the page DOM context where there's probably no window.click method.
Here's a possibly working script:
var linkSelector = 'div.clickable_div';
casper.then(function() {
if (!this.exists(linkSelector)) return;
this.click(linkSelector);
this.evaluate(function(linkSelector) {
__utils__.findOne(linkSelector).setAttribute("className", "clicked");
}, linkSelector);
});
You may want to have better handling of errors and edge cases, but you get the idea.
Jquery Mobile has decided to treat anchor links as page requests of sort. However, this isn't good if you have a load of blog posts which have anchor links to the same page (ie href="#specs").
Is there a way to disable jquery mobile's anchor link usage on a specific page which I know I won't be using it on so I can use anchor links as they were intended, to drop down to a part of the page?
I only need a solution for anchor links on the same page (ie: href="#specs").
thanks
You could try adding a data-ajax="false" on the anchor tag.
Linking without Ajax
Links that point to other domains or that have rel="external",
data-ajax="false" or target attributes will not be loaded with Ajax.
Instead, these links will cause a full page refresh with no animated
transition. Both attributes (rel="external" and data-ajax="false")
have the same effect, but a different semantic meaning: rel="external"
should be used when linking to another site or domain, while
data-ajax="false" is useful for simply opting a page within your
domain from being loaded via Ajax. Because of security restrictions,
the framework always opts links to external domains out of the Ajax
behavior.
Reference - http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0.1/docs/pages/page-links.html
If you are like me, converting an existing site and you don't want to go through every page right now. You can add one line of code to your header and all of your header and all of your existing internal anchor links will get the data-ajax="false" tag added.
Of course, this assumes you are including your own javascript file up in the header already. If you are not you would have to touch every page anyway. But I have a single javascript file that is included in every page already so I added this line...
$("a").each(function () { if(this.href.indexOf("#")>=0) $(this).attr("data-ajax",false); });
This goes in your $(document).ready() block. If you don't have that block yet, here is the entire block.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").each(function () { if(this.href.indexOf("#")>=0) $(this).attr("data-ajax",false); });
});
Hope this helps. It is the same solution user700284 offers but in an automated way.
You can add the following code to the end of your page:
<script type="text/javascript">
$('a.native-anchor').bind('click', function(ev) {
var target = $( $(this).attr('href') ).get(0).offsetTop;
$.mobile.silentScroll(target);
return false;
});
</script>
And add the class "native-anchor" to your anchor links.
It is not a total sollution, because the back button of your browser will move you to the previous page and not to the position of the link, but it is better than the links not working at all.
I found this sollution here: jQuery Mobile Anchor Linking
$(document).bind("mobileinit", function () {
$.mobile.ajaxEnabled = false;
});
First you have to place this code into a custom.js file
$(document).bind('mobileinit', function () {
$.mobile.loader.prototype.options.disabled = true;
$.mobile.ajaxEnabled = false;
$.mobile.linkBindingEnabled = false;
$.mobile.loadingMessage = false;
});
Then add this file into your webpage before the jquery mobile js is loaded. becuase 'mobilinit' event is triggered immediately
Thank you
this solution worked for me
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").each(function() {
if (this.href.indexOf("index.php") >= 0) $(this).attr("data-ajax", false);
});
});
</script>
I replaced # with index.php which is my document root.
But, it doesn't work for form button i.e input type="submit"
// On page load on mobiles only, look for the specific a tag you want to take control over,
// alternatively you can still target all 'a' tags
$('a[href*="#component"]').each(function () {
// then set data-ajax to false,
$(this).attr("data-ajax", false);
// at this point you can add the class to your target a tags.
// You can do it elsewhere but because for this example my
// 'a' tags are automatically generated so I just add the class here
$(this).addClass('in-pagelink');
// then target the class and bind to a click event
$('a.in-pagelink').bind('click', function (ev) {
// here I redirect the page with window.location.assign
// as opposed to window.location.href. I find that it works better
window.location.assign(this.href);
// then I close my navigation menu
closeAll();
});
});
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
