Hiding jQueryUI tooltip when clicking on target="_blank" link

I'm using jQuery to show tooltips on every link on my page that has a 'details' attribute
$(function() {
$tooltip = $(document).tooltip({
show: false,
track: true,
items: "a[data-details]",
content: function() {
return $( this ).data('details');
}
});
});
This works very well. However, when the user clicks one of those links, the URL is opened in a new tab (using target="_blank"). The problem is that the tooltip is still open when the user gets back on the first tab.
Here's what I tried so far:
$('a[data-details]').on('click mousedown mouseup', function() { // this might be overkill
$(document).tooltip("close"); // Doesn't work at all
$('div[class^="ui-tooltip"]').remove(); // removes the tooltip onclick, but gets it back opened when returning on the tab
});
Is there a way to keep the tooltips closed when the new page is opened?
Thank you for your help.
Here's a fiddle illustrating the problem: https://jsfiddle.net/su4v757a/
Note: I'm using jQuery 1.12.4 with jQueryUI 1.12.1

This is probably a bug.
As far as I can tell this must be a bug.
And you could let them know over at https://bugs.jqueryui.com/report/10?P=tooltip
I notice that the .tooltip("close") doesn't work in the fiddle. However the tooltip listens to the "mouseleave"-event to close, and we can force that by $('a[data-details]').trigger("mouseleave");
If you try this out you will see that it do close, but pops up again:
$('a[data-details]').on('click mousedown mouseup', function() { // this might be overkill
$(this).trigger("mouseleave");
});
Hover and click the "me":
Coming back to the page notice that the tooltip has closed and come back again:
Workaround - possible solution
Since .hide()-ing an element triggers the "mouseleave"-event you could do something funky like hiding the link on click, and showing it just a moment later.
$('a[data-details]').click(function() {
var $this = $(this);
$this.hide();
setTimeout(function() {
$this.show()
}, 1);
});
Setting the timeout to 1 ms would not create any flickering of the link, making the hide/show unnoticeable for the user.
Works in Chrome. Try it here: https://jsfiddle.net/cyx6528e/1/
Good luck!

tooltip usually works on hover functionality, can you provide js fiddle for your problem

Javascript Conflict with PHP

I am not sure what is causing the issue with my mobile menu system here.
I have two pages with an identical function to condense the nav systems into a mobile menu (below)
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.main_nav nav ul').clone().appendTo('.top_menu');
$('.sec_nav nav ul').clone().appendTo('.top_menu');
$('.bottom-links ul').clone().appendTo('.top_menu');
$('.footer-links ul').clone().appendTo('.top_menu');
$('.rfi_nav').clone().appendTo('.m_form');
// For Menu-----------------
$('.menu, .m_close, .rfi_nav label.title').click(function(e) {
$('body').toggleClass('m_open');
});
// For Menu On window resize------------------
function checkwindowSize() {
var windowSize = $(window).width();
if(windowSize > 320 && windowSize < 1023) {
//$('body').toggleClass('open');
}
else{
$('body').removeClass('m_open');
}
}
checkwindowSize();
$(window).resize(function(){ checkwindowSize() });
// For BT Select DropDown-----------------
$('select').selectpicker();
// For content Scroll bar-----------------
(function($){
$(window).load(function(){
$(".scroll").mCustomScrollbar({
scrollButtons:{enable:true,scrollType:"continuous",scrollSpeed:40,scrollAmount:40},
advanced:{updateOnBrowserResize:true, updateOnContentResize:true, autoExpandHorizontalScroll:true, autoScrollOnFocus:true }
});
});
})(jQuery);
// BT Accordian------------
function toggleChevron(e) {
$(e.target)
.prev('.panel-heading')
.find("i.indicator")
.toggleClass('glyphicon-plus glyphicon-minus');
}
$('#accordion').on('hidden.bs.collapse', toggleChevron);
$('#accordion').on('shown.bs.collapse', toggleChevron);
});
</script>
My script works perfectly on my homepage (http://dev.oru.edu) but my internal pages (http://dev.oru.edu/generic-hf.php and http://dev.oru.edu/generic-hfs.php) seem to be conflicting somewhere and I cannot detect where or why.
Can someone please help me identify what is causing the conflict resulting in my mobile menus not loading? I am not familiar with JavaScript so I am fumbling around and don't want to mess the code up from the original developer since it is still working on the homepage.
The furthest I have been able to detect is that the problem is not restricted to only mobile devices but desktop browsers as well when scaled to mobile sizes. At first I thought it may be relevant to the device type but the issue is persistent with the desktop browsers as well.

Looking at the error console is very telling:
Many of your scripts depend on JQuery being loaded before they run. You're loading JQuery, but doing it asynchronously:
<script async type="text/javascript" src="js/1.11.3.jquery.min.js"></script>
Your scripts are then immediately calling window.$ and window.jQuery which haven't been loaded yet.
Remove the async attribute and it should work.

I had an "async" on my primary jquery library which was causing the function to not load the library properly.

Disable certain Javascript on devices

I'm building a website and I'm using media queries to make the website responsive for mobile devices. On the desktop version of my website, I'm using the following Javascript to make 2 divs fade in/out once 100px have been scrolled down.
$(document).scroll(function () {
var y = $(this).scrollTop();
if (y > 100) {
$('#firstHeadingLeft, #firstHeadingRight').fadeIn(3000);
} else {
$('#firstHeadingLeft, #firstHeadingRight').fadeOut();
}
});
Now the problem is, I don't want this javascript to be active on my mobile device, I want the 2 divs to be always present. I done some searching and found this
How to disable JavaScript in media query
One of the suggestions was to add an event listener using this code
window.addEventListener('resize', function(){
if(window.innerWidth > 568){
...execute script
}
});
However because I'm not fluent in javascript I'm unsure how to correctly wrap my code into the event listener code.
If someone could give me a hand that would be appreciated! -- Thank you!

This should work but I have no way to test it. Tell me what happens :)
window.addEventListener('resize', function(){
disableScript();
});
window.addEventListener('load',function(){
disableScript();
});
function disableScript(){
if(screen.width > 568){
//...execute script
}
}

NivoSlider - Disable Right Click

I have been asked to put in place disabling of the right clicks on a website, I've informed them there is so many ways that people can still download the images via Google Images, Cache, Firebug etc etc, but none the less my arguments have gone ignored and they insist this must be done.
Any, I've put in the footer some code that disables right clicking on all elements using <IMG src=""> this fails to work on NivoSlider, I did change the script to use window load on disabling the right click which works but after slide1 it stops working and I assume this is something to do with changes to the DOM.
JavaScript is by far my weakest point and I'm hoping that someone without to much trouble can either give me a full working solution or something to go on. Thanks in Advance.
They are using NivoSlider with the following trigger:
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($) {
$(window).load(function() {
$('#slider').nivoSlider();
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
And this is the code that I've placed in the footer that fails to work on slide2+
<script>
$(window).load(function() {
$('img').bind('contextmenu', function(e) {
return false;
});
});
</script>

You're absolutely right with the DOM changes. You need to delegate the event to a parent element.
Try something like this:
$('#slider').delegate('img', 'contextmenu', function(e) {
return false;
});
Or this if using jQuery > 1.7:
$('#slider').on('contextmenu', 'img', function(e) {
return false;
});

You might be able to do it by preventing the default behaviour of a right click on the image.

simulating a click on a <a>-element in javascript

for a website, i am using the jQuery supzersized gallery script: http://buildinternet.com/project/supersized/slideshow/3.2/demo.html
As you can see in the demo, in the bottom right corner there is an little arrow button that toggles a thumbnail bar. There is no option in the config files to automatically blend this in when opening the site.
So i guess i have to simulate a click on that button (the button is the tray-button, see HTML). I tried something like this:
<script>
$(function() {
$('#tray-button').click();
});
</script>
However, this doesnt seem to work in any browsers i tested.
Any idea?

$('#tray-arrow').click(function() {
// prepare an action here, maybe say goodbye.
//
// if #tray-arrow is button or link <a href=...>
// you can allow or disallow going to the link:
// return true; // accept action
// return false; // disallow
});
$('#tray-arrow').trigger('click'); // this is a simulation of click

Try this
$("#tray-arrow").live("click", function () {
// do something
});

I assume that you want to popup the thumbnail bar #thump-tray on page load.
Here's a way to do it:
locate the file supersized.shutter.js and find this code:
// Thumbnail Tray Toggle
$(vars.tray_button).toggle(function(){
$(vars.thumb_tray).stop().animate({bottom : 0, avoidTransforms : true}, 300 );
if ($(vars.tray_arrow).attr('src')) $(vars.tray_arrow).attr("src", vars.image_path + "button-tray-down.png");
return false;
}, function() {
$(vars.thumb_tray).stop().animate({bottom : -$(vars.thumb_tray).height(), avoidTransforms : true}, 300 );
if ($(vars.tray_arrow).attr('src')) $(vars.tray_arrow).attr("src", vars.image_path + "button-tray-up.png");
return false;
});
After it, add:
$(vars.tray_button).click();
Dont forget in your page (demo.html in the plugin), to change
<script type="text/javascript" src="theme/supersized.shutter.min.js"></script>
to
<script type="text/javascript" src="theme/supersized.shutter.js"></script>

instead of using
$(function(){
//jquery magic magic
});
you culd try this witch will work your jquery magic after the full page is loaded (images etc)
$(window).load(function () {
// jquery magic
});
and to simulate a click you culd use // shuld be the same as $('#tray-arrow').click();
$('#tray-arrow').trigger('click',function(){ })
example:
$(window).load(function () {
$('#tray-arrow').trigger('click',function(){
alert('just been clicked!');
})
});

try
<script>
$(function() {
$('#tray-arrow').click();
});
</script>
Make sure that this code is after your carousel is initialized.

This looks like it's a problem of timing the trigger. The plugin also loads on document load, so maybe when you try to bind the event listener the element is not created yet.
Maybe you need to add the listener in something like the theme._init function
http://buildinternet.com/project/supersized/docs.html#theme-init
or somewhere similar.

A problem might be that your plugin detects whether the click has been initiated by a user (real mouse click), or through code (by using $('#id').click() method). If so, it's natural that you can't get any result from clicking the anchor element through code.
Check the source code of your plugin.
