Append a div outside of the input parent - javascript

Im fairly new to javascript and I just can't figure this out despite my attempt in researching. How do I track the change of a input within a div and trigger an append to an outside div? My code goes as follow:
Append h3 with "Pending" once ".image-value" input has a change in value
<!-- APPEND <h3> -->
<h3>Best Overall Costume<div class="pending">Pending</div></h3>
<div>
<div class="select-form">
<img src="images/vote.jpg" data-value="image_value">
<img src="images/vote.jpg" data-value="image_value2">
<img src="images/vote.jpg" data-value="image_value3">
<img src="images/vote.jpg" data-value="image_value4">
<img src="images/vote.jpg" data-value="image_value5">
<!-- Track the change of this input -->
<input type="hidden" class="image-value" name="selected_image" value="">
</div>
</div>
I tried this:
function changeStatus(statusValue) {
$("input",".select-form").val(statusValue).trigger("change");
}
$("input",".select-form").change(function(){
if (!$(this).val()){
$("<div class='pending'>Pending</div>").appendTo($("h3").prev($(this)));
}
});
But that didn't seem to work. Any ideas?

place an empty div where you want your new div and give it an id i.e(<div id='myDiv'><div>) and then append what you want like this.
$( "#myDiv" ).append( "<div class='pending'>Pending</div>" );
You can also check Append Explained
for more explanations.
Thanks.

I've done a couple things here... First, I'm not sure why you had it all in a named function. When you're using event listeners that often isn't necessary.
Then, I don't know what the val check was for, so I reversed it.
Finally, I'm using one(), which only runs once. This case seemed to call for that.
$('.select-form').one('change', 'input', function () {
if ( $(this).val() ) { alert('asdgf');
$("<div class='pending'>Pending</div>")
.appendTo($(this).parent().prev('h3'));
}
});
Fiddle

try this:
$("input",".select-form").on("change", function(){
var $this = $(this);
if (!$this.val()){
var elem = $('<h3>Best Overall Costume<div class="pending">Pending</div></h3>');
$this.parent().parent().before(elem);
}
});
you can also place a check, that if the pending div is already added, not to add it again.
Of course this solution assumes that there are no other nested divs between the target div(before which you want to append) and the input control

jQuery display property not changing but other properties are

I'm trying to make a text editable on clicking it. Below is the code I'm trying. When the title is clicked it shows an input box and button to save it.
<div class="block">
<div class="title">Title</div>
<div class="title-edit">
<input type="text" name="title" value="Title">
<button>Save</button>
</div>
</div>
I have changed other properties like color or changing the text of the elements and its working, but it is not applying the display property or .show()/.hide() function on the title or edit elements.
Below is my jQuery
$(function(){
$('.block').on('click', editTitle);
$('.title-edit button').on('click', saveTitle);
});
function saveTitle(){
var parent = $(this).closest('.block');
var title = $('.title', parent);
var edit = $('.title-edit', parent);
$(title).show();
$(edit).hide();
}
function editTitle(){
$('.title-edit', this).show();
$('.title', this).hide();
}
Here's the jsfiddle
https://jsfiddle.net/ywezpag7/
I've added
$(title).html('abcd');
to the end to show that other properties/functions are working, but just not the display.
For checking the html change on title element you will have to check the source through developer tools cause the title element is hidden.
Where am I going wrong?
Your problem is in the function saveTitle. The first line must stop the event propagation otherwise after this function the editTitle function is called.
The snippet:
$(function(){
$('.block').on('click', editTitle);
$('.title-edit button').on('click', saveTitle);
});
function saveTitle(e){
// this line
e.stopPropagation();
var parent = $(this).closest('.block');
var title = $('.title', parent);
var edit = $('.title-edit', parent);
title.show();
edit.hide();
title.text($('.title-edit input').val());
}
function editTitle(e){
$('.title-edit', this).show();
$('.title', this).hide();
}
.title-edit{
display:none
}
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js"></script>
<div class="block">
<div class="title">Title</div>
<div class="title-edit">
<input type="text" name="title" value="Title">
<button>Save</button>
</div>
</div>
The issue as mentioned already is that your click events are fighting. In your code, the title-edit class is within the block, so when you click on the save button it triggers events for both clicks.
The easiest and, imho, cleanest way to resolve this is to switch your click event to be called on .title, and .title-edit button. You can also simplify the code beyond what you've got there.
$(function(){
$('.title').click(editTitle);
$('.title-edit button').click(saveTitle);
});
function saveTitle(){
$('.title').show();
$('.title-edit').hide();
$(title).html('abcd');
}
function editTitle(){
$('.title-edit').show();
$('.title').hide();
}

I tried debug your code, and I had seen, that then you click to "Save" button, handled both functions, saveTitle() and editTitle(), and in that order. Therefore, the elements initially hidden, and then shown.

Get a variable immediately after typing

I have this code
<span></span>
and this
<div> variable like a number </div>
and
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var x = $('div').html();
$('span').html(x)
});
</script>
I need that every time I change the div value, the span reflects the changes of the div
For example.
If I type 1 in the div, the span should immediately show me number 1
If I type 3283 in the div, the span should immediately show me number 3283
but with this code - I need to create
$("div").click(function(){
var x = $('div').html();
$('span').html(x)
});
I do not want to use .click(function) . in need this function run Automatically
after your answer
I use this code
http://jsfiddle.net/Danin_Na/uuo8yht1/3/
but doesn't work . whats the problem ?
This is very simple. If you add the contenteditable attribute to the div, you can use the keyup event:
var div = $('div'),
span = $('span');
span.html(div.html());
div.on('keyup', function() {
span.html(div.html());
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<span></span>
<div contenteditable="true"> variable like a number </div>
here is a demo with input:
html:
<span></span>
<input type="text" id="input01">
js:
$(document).ready(function(){
$( "#input01" ).on('keyup',function() {
var x = parseFloat($('#input01').val());
$('span').html(x)
});
});
How can you edit in div element on browser?
It have to be any input type then only you can edit or change value.
So for that on click of that div you have to show some input/textarea at that place and on change event of that input you can update the value of input in span.
<div id="main-div">
<input type="text" id="input-box" />
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#input-box').change(function(){
$('span').html($(this).text)
});
});
</script>
$("input[type=text]").change(function(){
var x = $('div').html();
$('span').text(x)
});
This can be use with textbox or textarea, For div user cannot enter text.

.change() will not work with a DIV-element. Since you did not specify how the DIV is updated I would recommend either setting a timer or using .keypress()
Example with timer:
$(function(){
var oldVal = "";
var divEl = $("div");
setInterval(function(){
var elTxt = divEl.text();
if (elTxt != oldVal) {
oldVal = elTxt;
$("span").text(elTxt);
}
}, 50);
});
You need a key listener, jquery provides a .keypress(), Examples are provided on keypress documentation.
I recommend to lookup the combination of .on() and .keyup() with some delay or throttle/debounce either via jquery or underscore.js library.
One of the reason or need for delay is to prevent too many event calls which will affect performance.
Here is an example of code in another question regarding throttle and keyup
Hope this helps.

How do I apply jQuery's slideToggle() to $(this) and do the opposite to all other elements?

What I'd like to do is have all elements of class collapsible_list not displayed by default (with one exception... see below*), and then toggle their display when their parent <div class="tab_box"> is clicked. During the same click, I'd also like for every other element of class collapsible_list to be hidden so that only one of them is expanded at any given time.
*Furthermore, when the page initially loads I'd also like to check to see if an element of collapsible_list has a child a element whose class is activelink, and if there is one then I'd like that link's parent collapsible_list element to be the one that's expanded by default.
Here's some sample html code:
<style>
.collapsible_list {
display: none;
}
.collapsible_list.active {
display: block;
}
</style>
<div id="sidebar">
<div class="tab_box">
<div class="collapsible_tab">2014</div>
<div class="collapsible_list panel-2014">
1
2
3
</div>
</div>
<div class="tab_box">
<div class="collapsible_tab">2013</div>
<div class="collapsible_list panel-2013">
<a class="activelink" href="/2013/1">1</a>
2
3
</div>
</div>
</div>
And here's where I'm currently at with the javascript (although I've tried a bunch of different ways and none have worked like I'd like them to):
$(document).ready(function() {
// This looks redundant to me but I'm not sure how else to go about it.
$(".collapsible_list").children("a.activelink").parent(".collapsible_list:not(.active)").addClass("active");
$(".tab_box").click(function() {
$(this).children(".collapsible_list").toggleClass("active").slideToggle("slow", function() {
$(".collapsible_list.active:not(this)").each(function() {
$(this).slideToggle("slow");
});
});
});
});
I hope that's not too confusing, but if it is then feel free to let me know. Any help is much appreciated.
Since you have a dom element reference that needs to be excluded use .not() instead of the :not() selector
jQuery(function ($) {
// This looks redundant to me but I'm not sure how else to go about it.
$(".collapsible_list").children("a.activelink").parent(".collapsible_list:not(.active)").addClass("active").show();
$(".tab_box").click(function () {
var $target = $(this).children(".collapsible_list").toggleClass("active").stop(true).slideToggle("slow");
//slidup others
$(".collapsible_list.active").not($target).stop(true).slideUp("slow").removeClass('active');
});
});
Also, instead of using the slide callback do it directly in the callback so that both the animations can run simultaniously
Also remove the css rule .collapsible_list.active as the display is controlled by animations(slide)
Try This.
$('.collapsible_tab a').on('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$('.collapsible_list').removeClass('active')
$(this).parent().next('.collapsible_list').toggleClass('active');
});
Fiddle Demo
I think your code would be less complicated if you simply remembered the previously opened list:
jQuery(function($) {
// remember current list and make it visible
var $current = $('.collapsible_list:has(.activelink)').show();
$(".tab_box").on('click', function() {
var $previous = $current;
// open new list
$current = $('.collapsible_list', this)
.slideToggle("slow", function() {
// and slide out the previous
$previous.slideToggle('slow');
});
});
});

Dynamically append jQuery slider

I'm trying to dynamically include the div-structure from a jQuery slider into my index page.
$( "body" ).on( "click", ".abc", function() {
var photo = '<li><img src="img/photos/photo-1.png" title="Photo 1"></li>';
// .. other li's
$('#banner-fade ul.bjqs').append(photo);
});
into:
<div class="slider" id="photo_1">
<div id="banner-fade">
<ul class="bjqs">
// here should the list items come.
</ul>
</div>
</div>
The problem is that the javascript is not working, only the first picture is shown. How is this possible?
-> When I paste the li's inside the ul, it will work. But not when I try to append it using jQuery.
Just a demo
$(document).ready(function(){
$(document).on( "click", ".abc", function() {
var photo = '<li><b>test1</b></li>';
$('#banner-fade ul.bjqs').append(photo);
});
});

Look like the same thing I've just answered in other question here.
All you need to do is to wrap your code inside
$(function(), {
// Your code goes here...
});
And make sure your <script></script> tags are both inside <head> container.

how to repeat same Javascript code over multiple html elements

Note: Changed code so that images and texts are links.
Basically, I have 3 pictures all with the same class, different ID. I have a javascript code which I want to apply to all three pictures, except, the code needs to be SLIGHTLY different depending on the picture. Here is the html:
<div class=column1of4>
<img src="images/actual.jpg" id="first">
<div id="firsttext" class="spanlink"><p>lots of text</p></div>
</div>
<div class=column1of4>
<img src="images/fake.jpg" id="second">
<div id="moretext" class="spanlink"><p>more text</p></div>
</div>
<div class=column1of4>
<img src="images/real.jpg" id="eighth">
<div id="evenmoretext" class="spanlink"><p>even more text</p></div>
</div>
Here is the Javascript for the id="firsttext":
$('#firstextt').hide();
$('#first, #firsttext').hover(function(){
//in
$('#firsttext').show();
},function(){
//out
$('#firsttext').hide();
});
So when a user hovers over #first, #firsttext will appear. Then, I want it so that when a user hovers over #second, #moretext should appear, etc.
I've done programming in Python, I created a sudo code and basically it is this.
text = [#firsttext, #moretext, #evenmoretext]
picture = [#first, #second, #eighth]
for number in range.len(text) //over here, basically find out how many elements are in text
$('text[number]').hide();
$('text[number], picture[number]').hover(function(){
//in
$('text[number]').show();
},function(){
//out
$('text[number]').hide();
});
The syntax is probably way off, but that's just the sudo code. Can anyone help me make the actual Javascript code for it?
try this
$(".column1of4").hover(function(){
$(".spanlink").hide();
$(this).find(".spanlink").show();
});
Why not
$('.spanlink').hide();
$('.column1of4').hover(
function() {
// in
$(this).children('.spanlink').show();
},
function() {
// out
$(this).children('.spanlink').hide();
}
);
It doesn't even need the ids.
You can do it :
$('.column1of4').click(function(){
$(this); // the current object
$(this).children('img'); // img in the current object
});
or a loop :
$('.column1of4').each(function(){
...
});
Dont use Id as $('#id') for multiple events, use a .class or an [attribute] do this.
If you're using jQuery, this is quite easy to accomplish:
$('.column1of4 .spanlink').hide();
$('.column1of4 img').mouseenter(function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
$(this).parent().find('.spanlink').show();
});
$('.column1of4 img').mouseleave(function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
$(this).parent().find('.spanlink').hide();
});
Depending on your markup structure, you could use DOM traversing functions like .filter(), .find(), .next() to get to your selected node.
$(".column1of4").hover(function(){
$(".spanlink").hide();
$(this).find(".spanlink, img").show();
});
So, the way you would do this, given your html would look like:
$('.column1of4').on('mouseenter mouseleave', 'img, .spanlink', function(ev) {
$(ev.delegateTarget).find('.spanlink').toggle(ev.type === 'mouseenter');
}).find('.spanlink').hide();
But building on what you have:
var text = ['#firsttext', '#moretext', '#evenmoretext'];
var picture = ['#first', '#second', '#third'];
This is a traditional loop using a closure (it's better to define the function outside of the loop, but I'm going to leave it there for this):
// You could also do var length = text.length and replace the "3"
for ( var i = 0; i < 3; ++i ) {
// create a closure so that i isn't incremented when the event happens.
(function(i) {
$(text[i]).hide();
$([text[i], picture[i]].join(',')).hover(function() {
$(text[i]).show();
}, function() {
$(text[i]).hide();
});
})(i);
}
And the following is using $.each to iterate over the group.
$.each(text, function(i) {
$(text[i]).hide();
$([text[i], picture[i]].join(', ')).hover(function() {
$(text[i]).show();
}, function() {
$(text[i]).hide();
});
});
Here's a fiddle with all three versions. Just uncomment the one you want to test and give it a go.
I moved the image inside the div and used this code, a working example:
$('.column1of4').each(function(){
$('div', $(this)).each(function(){
$(this).hover(
function(){
//in
$('img', $(this)).show();
},
function(){
//out
$('img', $(this)).hide();
});
});
});
The general idea is 1) use a selector that isn't an ID so I can iterate over several elements without worrying if future elements will be added later 2) locate the div to hide/show based on location relational to $(this) (will only work if you repeat this structure in your markup) 3) move the image tag inside the div (if you don't, then the hover gets a little spazzy because the positioned is changed when the image is shown, therefore affecting whether the cursor is inside the div or not.
EDIT
Updated fiddle for additional requirements (see comments).
