Here is my HTML code:
const fps = 60
let score = 0
function GenerateAnswers() {
/*...*/
}
function UpdateTiles() {
/*...*/
}
function Correct() {
console.log("Correct")
score++
/*...*/
}
function Incorrect() {
console.log("Incorrect")
/*...*/
}
function MainLoop() {
// moving the tiles (does work)
// updating tile display (does work)
// updating score display (does work)
}
const mainLoop = setInterval(MainLoop, (1000 / fps))
div.AnswerBlack {
width: 100%;
height: 23.5%;
background-color: black;
color: red;
font-size: 10%
}
button {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
transform: translateY(-11.2%)
}
<!--...-->
<table>
<!--...-->
<tr>
<!--...-->
<td id="Answer1">
<div class="AnswerBlack" id="tileID" style="transform: translateY(69%);">
ANSWER TEXT
<br>
<button onclick="Incorrect()"></button>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The result of this is a moving tile (in which I control the movement of the tile by editing the translateY(x%)), and because there is a row a text in the div ("ANSWER TEXT"), I put "transform: translateY(-11.2%)" in the button style and after that the button does fill the div, but the problem is the Incorrect() function never got triggered despite having an Incorrect() function with a console.log function in the JavaScript file.
My goal is to make a moving black tile while the button in the div still works.

I have a full-page menu that opens on a button click with two different sections. The content in #terms doesn't change, but the content in #links does, based on which button you click. The code itself works fine, but the jQuery feels incredibly bulky and I was wondering if anyone could suggest any ways to make it a bit cleaner. Also, the HTML structure has to pretty well stay as-is because its kind of finnicky with the styling.
I should also note that I'm not the most experienced with jQuery, so...
This is the code in question and the relevant HTML (the buttons at the top are in another part of the HTML, but I included them here to see how they're structured):
$("#codes-launch, #gfx-launch, #tuts-launch, #menu-close").click(function() {
$("#menu").slideToggle("slow");
$("body").toggleClass("scroll-lock");
});
$("#codes-launch").click(function() {
$("#codes").show();
$("#gfx, #tuts").hide();
});
$("#gfx-launch").click(function() {
$("#gfx").show();
$("#codes, #tuts").hide();
});
$("#tuts-launch").click(function() {
$("#tuts").show();
$("#codes, #gfx").hide();
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<button id="codes-launch">Codes</button>
<button id="gfx-launch">Graphics</button>
<button id="tuts-launch">Resources</button>
<div id="menu">
<div id="terms">SOME STUFF</div>
<div id="links">
<button id="menu-close">Close</button>
<div id="codes">Codes</div>
<div id="gfx">Graphics</div>
<div id="tuts">Resources</div>
</div>
</div>

Using a data attribute and a common selector, you can replace all the clicks into one.
$("button[data-toggles]").on("click", function(evt) {
evt.preventDefault();
$("#links > div").hide();
const selector = $(this).data('toggles');
$(selector).show();
$("#menu").slideDown("slow");
$("body").addClass("scroll-lock");
});
$("#menu-close").on("click", function() {
$("#menu").slideUp("slow");
$("body").removeClass("scroll-lock");
});
#menu {
display: none;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<button id="codes-launch" data-toggles="#codes">Codes</button>
<button id="gfx-launch" data-toggles="#gfx">Graphics</button>
<button id="tuts-launch" data-toggles="#tuts">Resources</button>
<div id="menu">
<div id="terms">SOME STUFF</div>
<div id="links">
<button id="menu-close">Close</button>
<div id="codes">Codes</div>
<div id="gfx">Graphics</div>
<div id="tuts">Resources</div>
</div>
</div>

I see your not on style, probably something there that can be addressed as a separate question - probably just some odd CSS with an easy fix.
Here I used classes and did some minor structure changes to facilitate some "grouping" - I set and clear a data value to make the code slightly less and not impact the page DOM as much as it does not toggle classes (often messes with style a bit when toggled)
Totally out of scope but I added a Show/Hide just for fun that can be clicked also and set an initial state for "Show" to be hidden on that.
I also note there is no "initial" filter/group but left that out and made a comment in the code to illustrate it being set on page load.
$("#lanchers, #menu-close").on('click', function() {
$("#menu").slideToggle("slow");
$("body").toggleClass("scroll-lock");
var h = $(".up-down").filter(":hidden");
h.show();
$(".up-down").not(h).hide();
});
// just to set up the initial state
$("#lanchers").find(".up-down").first().hide();
// we could trigger on one of these on startup to set some initial target as the "visible" one
$("#lanchers").on('click', '.launcher-thing', function() {
const $targ = $(this.dataset.target);
$(".target-thing").not($targ).each(function(event) {
this.dataset.show = "nope";
});
$targ.get(0).dataset.show = "yep";
});
.scroll-lock {
border: 1px solid lime;
}
#links {
border: solid blue 1px;
background-color: #ffeeee;
}
[data-show="yep"] {
display: block;
}
[data-show="nope"] {
display: none;
}
.up-down {
background-color: #eeffee;
padding: 0.5em;
display: inline-block;
border: solid 1px #ccffcc;
}

Show/Hide feature [closed]

Improve this question
I'm trying to create a feature using either jQuery or vanilla JS. My feature should be able to show/hide content on click. The initial task is easy enough and I'm able to show my hidden div using jQuery toggle, but I would also like to be able to switch my FA icon as well as the link text from 'Show content' to 'Hide content'.

Use
.toggleClass(`.fa-check .fa-cross')
add one as the default.
Toggle text can be handled by either not using .toggle (using .show/.hide) instead or by including a span for each text and toggling those. Or by having 2 buttons and toggling those.
Example snippet (needs fa icons)
$(".toggle").click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass("collapsed expanded")
$(this).find("i").toggleClass("fa-chevron-up fa-chevron-down")
});
.wrapper { border: 1px solid #CCC; width: 200px; }
.wrapper .details { border-top: 1px solid #CCC; }
.wrapper .toggle.collapsed > div.details { display:none; }
.wrapper .toggle.expanded > .more { display:none; }
.wrapper .toggle.collapsed > .less { display:none; }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class='wrapper'>
<div class='toggle collapsed'><i class='fa fa-chevron-up'></i>
<div class='more'>more</div><div class='less'>less</div>
<div class='details'>details</div>
</div>
</div>
You can apply the same logic for the text to the icon as well if preferred (include 2 <i class='fa...) and then use css to show/hide them based on the class on the parent.
You can also add some css transition so it's less jumpy, or you can use $(this).find(".more,.less").slideToggle() instead of just toggle to add an effect.

There are dozens of ways to do it. Below is a step-by-step tutorial.
This should work, assuming you have already included jQuery.
<img id="imgtog" onclick="toggle()" src="someimg1.png">
<div id="content" hidden="">content</div>
<script>
var tog = false;
function toggle()
{
if(tog == false)
{
$('#content').removeAttr('hidden');
$('#imgtog').attr('src', 'otherimage2.png');
tog = true;
}
else
{
$('#content').attr('hidden', '');
$('#imgtog').attr('src', 'someimg1.png');
tog = false;
}
}
</script>

How to disable all content, divs, etc so when server is processing [closed]

I have an html page with some content including buttons, headers and etc. Every time a button is pressed the server does some processing which usually takes around 5-10 seconds. However during this time, the user can click on buttons, headers which will be unresponsive as the server is still processing.
How can i disable all the content(buttons, redirect headers, etc) on the page so that the user is not able to interact with the webpage when it is processing in the back, then re-enable everything after the processing is done?
Thanks for all the help

A quick and dirty way to do this would be to create a semi transparent div with a really high z-index positioned absolutely and the full size of the page. When a user clicks a button, show this div which will block interaction with all content under it. Then, when the server is done, hide the div. Something like this:
$('.myBtn').click(function() {
$('#result').append('Button Clicked!<br>');
$('#pageshield').show();
setTimeout(function() {
$('#pageshield').hide();
}, 2000);
});
.container {
position: relative;
}
#pageshield {
display: none;
z-index: 999999999;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
background-color: #000000;
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)";
/* IE 8 */
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
/* IE 5-7 */
-moz-opacity: 0.5;
/* Netscape */
-khtml-opacity: 0.5;
/* Safari 1.x */
opacity: 0.5;
/* Good browsers */
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<div id="pageshield"></div>
<button class="myBtn">Click me</button>
<br>
<button class="myBtn">Click me</button>
<br>
<button class="myBtn">Click me</button>
<br>
<button class="myBtn">Click me</button>
<br>
<button class="myBtn">Click me</button>
<br>
<div id="result"></div>
</div>
Disclaimer, this works but does seem a bit hackish.
Also, if possible, consider changing the way your app works instead. In my opinion, blocking the whole page like this is bad UX. Which is the very reason the synchronous Ajax calls were deprecated

Try defining handlers for events as named functions , call .off() for each event attached to selector , reset handlers utilizing .on() when processing complete
$(function() {
var headerFn = function(e) {
alert(this.textContent)
}
var otherStuffFn = function(e) {
alert(this.textContent)
}
var arr = [{
type: "click",
fn: headerFn
}, {
type: "click",
fn: otherStuffFn
}];
var elems = $("header, div");
elems.eq(0).click(headerFn);
elems.eq(1).click(otherStuffFn);
$("button").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
$("html").css("pointer-events", "none").fadeTo(250, .2);
$(this).next("span").text(function(_, txt) {
if (txt === "status: not active") return txt;
return txt.replace(/(active)/, "not " + "$1")
});
$.each(elems, function(key, el) {
$(el).off(arr[key].type)
});
setTimeout(function() {
$.each(elems, function(key, el) {
$(el).on(arr[key].type, arr[key].fn)
});
$("+ span", this).text(function(_, txt) {
return txt.replace(/not/, "")
});
$("html").css("pointer-events", "initial").fadeTo(250, 1);
}.bind(this), 15000)
})
})

Warning: The following answer contains jQuery
So what you need to do is make two images, a foreground image to set the style:
(Can't see it very well, put it on a black background)
And a background image to create an animation effect:
Next, you must superimpose the FG on the BG.
HTML:
<div class="callbar">
<div class="callbarbg" style="width: 200px;"></div>
<div class="callbarfg"></div> <!-- later elements have higher z-index -->
</div>
CSS:
.callbarbg {
height: 20px;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-image: url("http://s9.postimage.org/4oij09p7j/sliding_Progress_Bar_BG.png");
background-position:right top;
}
.callbarfg {
position:relative;
top:-20px;
width: 200px;
height: 20px;
background-image: url("http://s9.postimage.org/bg8y34e73/sliding_Progress_Bar_FG.png");
}
.callbar {
overflow:hidden;
width:200px;
height:20px;
}
Finally, you must move the background image in order to make the fade in/out animation in each dot:
JS:
window.setInterval(function(){
var obj = $("parent of .callbar").find(".callbarbg");
if(!obj.data("width"))
obj.data("width", 200);
var w = obj.data("width") + 3;
obj.data("width", w).css("width", w);
var h = w%200;
if(h == 0 || h == 1 || h == 2){
obj.data("width", 200);
}
}, 33);
