I have a menu and I want an element with a class of active, parent element's sibling element to be clicked automatically on page load.
Here is my HTML:
<li class="level1">
<span class="level1 drop-down clicked">Oranges</span>
<ul class="level2" style="display: block;">
<li class="level2">Peel</li>
<li class="level2">Pips</li>
<li class="level2 active">Pegs</li>
</ul>
</li>
I've tried
jQuery('li.level2.active').parent('li.level1').children('span.level1.drop-down').click();
but it does not work. I'm not sure if I'm using the parent & children method's properly.
Although, jQuery("span.drop-down.level1").click(); does work, but it selects all the elements with that class which I would like to avoid.
Try this:
jQuery('li.active').closest('li.level1').find('span.level1.drop-down').trigger('click');
Because the li.level1 is two steps up, you need .parents(), which selects up multiple levels, instead of .parent(), which is only one.
jQuery('li.level2.active').parents('li.level1').children('span.level1.drop-down').click();

I've been searching a lot for this, without any solution so far. As you might also have seen the topic title might be a little hard to interpret and that's because I'm not quite sure how to explain it shortly.
The problem
Looking at the HTML below, I know the class of the last element called "active" and this element is chosen dynamically in jQuery, based on which site the visitor is on currently - i.e. different elements has this class depending on the site. On another site the li with class first-sub-li could have the class active (or for that matter the li with class first). This class is, as said, added dynamically based on the site with jquery. From here on I wish to identify the parent of the element with active which is a direct descendent of top-parent and add a class called active-parent to this. I.e. in the case below i wish to add the active-parent class to the li with class second.
EDIT: Please note that the "depth" of the list can vary, therefore also requiring a "dynamic" approach to picking out the parent. I completely forgot this in the initial writing.
<ul id="top-parent">
<li class="first">
<ul class="first-sub-ul">
<li class="first-sub-li"></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="second">
<ul class="second-sub-ul">
<li class="second-sub-li">
<ul class="second-sub-sub-ul">
<li class="second-sub-sub-li active"></li> <!-- Here -->
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
So far I've tried the following jQuery without succes as it doesn't identify it.
EDIT 2: This actually does work, but initially it didn't as it apparently was called before the class was loaded, despite appearing later in the javascript document. Wrapping it in a $(window).on("load", function() solves the problem as shown below.
$(window).on("load", function() {
$(".active").closest("#top-parent > li").addClass("active-parent");
});
The original code was just $(".active").closest("#top-parent > li").addClass("active-parent");
You can start traversing up with .parent(), it will excluding the self li.
$(".active").parent().closest("li").addClass("active-parent");
You can use :has() selector
$('#top-parent > li:has(.active)').addClass("active-parent");
$('#top-parent > li:has(.active)').addClass("active-parent");
.active-parent {
background-color: red
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul id="top-parent">
<li class="first">
<ul class="first-sub-ul">
<li class="first-sub-li"></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="second">
<ul class="second-sub-ul">
<li class="second-sub-li">
<ul class="second-sub-sub-ul">
<li class="second-sub-sub-li active"></li>
<!-- Here -->
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
I think this is what you're looking for. Find all li which are direct descendants of topmost-parent and filter that for the one which has a child .active. Apply the class.
$('#top-parent > li').filter(function(e){
return $(this).find('.active').length>0;
}).addClass("active-parent");
.active-parent{background-color:red}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<ul id="top-parent">
<li class="first">
<ul class="first-sub-ul">
<li class="first-sub-li">1.1</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="second">
<ul class="second-sub-ul">
<li class="second-sub-li active">2.1</li> <!-- Here -->
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
this is my site.
this is how I finally make it look like
I want to divide the the menu list items into two sub menu say menu left and right. And then wrap them in a div. This is make it easy for me to style them and this way they would stay responsive as well.
Now, I have been trying to achieve this by
jQuery( ".menu-item-580", ".menu-item-583",".menu-item-584",".menu-item-563").wrapAll("<div class='new' />").after(".menubar-brand");
I have trying this in browser console.
I also tried same above code by using appendTo() instead of after()
But, still no luck.
In your code you're basically doing this:
<ul>
<li>
<div class="new">
<li>
<li>
</div>
<li>
</ul>
which is not a valid markup.
The easiest way to goup <li>s would be to assign different additional css classes to different parts of the list:
<ul>
<li class="group1">
<li class="group1">
<li class="group2">
<li class="group2">
</ul>
Also, have a look at this: Is there a way to group `<li>` elements?
Firstly, I need to say that I'm pretty new to jQuery.
I have this situation: http://jsfiddle.net/dVf8m/
I've been wondering if there is a way to do the slideToggle simplier. Now I have two ids on menu elements (#trigger1 and #trigger2) and two ids on the hidden divs (#one and #two). This also results in double jQuery. Is it possible to avoid all the ids and make it simpler?
Another thing is that if I click on both menu elements (First and Second) both divs appear. I want only one of the hidden divs to be visible at one time? How can I force the first div to disappear when the other one is appearing?
Also, if I'd want to use fadeIn/fadeOut in this situation, how to do it when both of them use the .click event?
Change your code to something like below. Have a class for the div and add click listener to it. add any attribute to the div and give the id of the div to be toggled.
<div id="top">
<ul>
<li><span id="trigger1" class="toggler" data-item="item1">First</span></li>
<li><span id="trigger2" class="toggler" data-item="item2">Second</span></li>
<li>Third</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="hidden" id="item1">
<ul>
<li>Smthn</li>
<li>Smthn2</li>
<li>Smthn3</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="hidden" id="item2">
<ul>
<li>Apple</li>
<li>Orange</li>
<li>...</li>
</ul>
</div>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.toggler').click(function(e) {
$("#"+$(this).attr("data-item")).slideToggle(500);
});
});
JSFIDDLE
I have a menu inside a menu. The first menu anchor(class = menu-container) which contains the submenu has a hover state with styles attached to it. I want these styles of the parent anchor to remain active when the mouse is also over the submenu.
I cant use jQuery, as I am only restricted to pure javascript.
The code is as following:
<ul>
<li>
List Item
</li>
<li>
<a class="menu-container" href="#">List Item</a>
<ul class="submenu">
<li>list item</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
NOTE: The client has requested the menu to be displayed and hidden using pure CSS. I know that using jQuery to achieve the solution for this would be easier, but I am restricted.
Thanks
"Attach the menu-container class to the parent "li" item...
The ":hover" on the li won't work in IE6 and below but shall work in all modern browsers.
I have a dynamically built unordered list like below, and I want to find a way to expand all the nodes above the link with a certain id once the list is loaded using jquery,
For example I might want to expand all the nodes required for the link with the id=1905 to be visiblem and leave all other nodes collapsed.
Hope this makes sense.
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li><a class="inactive" href="#"><img src="images/folder.png">Baking</a>
<ul>
<li><a class="inactive" href="#">Bars</a>
<ul>
<li><a id="1905" class="rlink" href="url">Rasberry Crumb Breakfast Bars</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a id="1803" class="rlink" href="url">text</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
So the list would initially load like this
And I would want to expand it like this
You could try going up the parent nodes of the element you want and activate them:
var parentList= $('#link1905').closest('ul');
while (parentList.length > 0) {
parentList.prev('a').removeClass('inactive'); /* and/or .addClass('active'); */
parentList = parentList.closest('ul');
}
Also you must start your element id's with a letter: What are valid values for the id attribute in HTML?
