Force row height in HTML for ng-animation - javascript

I have an AngularJS module with a page that shows a table of topics and subtopics. Each topic is a tbody element with 2 rows: one representing the topic name, and one containing a nested table where the rows are the subtopics. Each topic has an expand / collapse button that controls the subtopics, i.e. ng-shows / hides the row where the subtopics table is:
<table>
<tbody ng-repeat="topic in topics">
<tr>
<td>{{topic.name}}</td>
<td class="toggle-subtopics" ng-click="toggleSubtopics(topic)">Expand / collapse</td>
</tr>
<tr class="test-height" ng-show="topic.expanded">
<td colspan=2>
<table>
<tr ng-repeat="subtopic in topic.subtopics">
<td>{{subtopic.name}}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I'd like the subtopics row to appear / disappear with ng-animation, but the main problem is that no matter what I do, I can't seem to control the height of this row.
Fiddle

In order to control a td height you need to work on the line-height instead of height
Fiddle
Code Snippet:
.test-height {
line-height: 40px !important; /* This doesn't affect the height of the row */
}
Option 1:
Updated Code:
.table > tbody > tr >td {
line-height: 40px !important;
}
Updated Fiddle Option 1
Option 2:
If you do not want to mess with bootstrap global space you can create your own class and assign that to individual td
Updated Code:
.fixed-height {
line-height: 40px !important;
}
Updated Fiddle Option 2

Try This:
.test-height {
height: 3px;
overflow:hidden;
display:block;
}

Horisontal HTML table with vertical data

I have been struggling to create a html table(I also use bootstrap). To make it easier to understand what I want to achieve, see picture below.
https://s15.postimg.org/ulq2gxap7/Hiro_Table.jpg
Depending on how many elements(lets say cars), the user selects, I want to create a column for each car. I have an array with the id of the selected itmes.
For now I do like this:
For(selected){
//get data from my object with id
.....
$('table thead tr').append(html);
$('table tbody').append(htmlData);
}
Which outputs:
-----car1-------------car2--------------car3
----1911-------------Italian------------Red
----1923 ------------Italian------------Yellow
----1923 -----------Swedish------------Green
I want as the picture I link to.
You didn't supplied the full HTML and JS code but basically between each TR with three TDs you need to append tr with td that have collspan=3
for example:
table td {
border: 1px solid #CCC;
text-align: center;
}
<table>
<tr>
<td colspan="3">italian</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Fiat</td>
<td>Ferarri</td>
<td>1992</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3">German</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>BMW</td>
<td>VW</td>
<td>Mercedes</td>
</tr>

Alternating Table Row Color Robust to display:none Settings

I have a dynamic table that I made with javascript. Depending on different user events, some rows will be hidden, rearranged, ect. To be more specific, I'm using display:none; to do this. The issue is the rows always keep their original background color (imagine if all the rows were visible, then you could see the alternating colors). That would be fine if I had the entire table visible, but like I mentioned, sometimes certain rows will be hidden or appear at different positions. This often results in two or more rows of the same color being stacked on top of each other.
There is a similar post:
Alternate table row color even if row is removed
I tried as many of those solutions as I could. However my problem persists. Probably due to the following reasons:
I'm not removing the columns, I'm simply setting display:none;
I'm not working in a jquery environment, so I am limited to native javascript solutions
My code is:
tr:nth-child(even) {
background:gray;
}
tr:nth-child(odd) {
background:lightgray;
}
I have tried tr:nth-of-type(odd) and many similar variants. Is there anything else in CSS or native javascript I can try?
More on Visbility/Selection:
CSS:
tr:not(.selected) {
display: none;
}
JS:
my_circles.each(function(d,i) {
if (my_bool===true) {
d3.select(this).classed('selected',true);
tableRows.get(this).classed("selected", true);
}
});
I'm using d3.js, but I think I will omit the d3 tag, because this seems more of a css or js issue. This is a small snippet, mostly for context, but essentially we should be able to infer the visibility is toggled by a class assignment. If you are curious, it is whenever the user selects a circle on my adjacent scatter plot.
Unfortunately, there is no straight-forward CSS only solution for this problem. Primarily because the :not selector does not go together with nth-... selectors.
Your best bet would be to re-stripe your rows everytime via Javascript.
Stripe your rows as soon as your page is loaded. After that, whenever you change display on any row, you fire your stripe function again.
Here is a crude example:
var tab = document.getElementById("tab"),
btns = tab.getElementsByTagName("a"),
show = document.getElementById("show"),
rows
;
stripe(); // Stripe the rows in beginning
// The stripe function itself
function stripe() {
// select all rows which are not hidden
rows = tab.querySelectorAll('tr:not(.hidden)');
// add a class for every second such row
for(var x = 0; x < rows.length; x++) {
if (x % 2 == 0) { rows[x].classList.add('alt'); }
else { rows[x].classList.remove('alt'); }
}
}
// dummy buttons to hide each row in this demo
[].forEach.call(btns, function(elem) {
elem.addEventListener('click', hide);
});
// your actual code where you hide your rows
function hide(e) {
e.target.parentNode.parentNode.classList.add('hidden');
stripe(); // fire re-striping when hiding rows
}
// dummy button to show rows in this demo
show.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
rows = tab.querySelectorAll('tr.hidden');
[].forEach.call(rows, function(row) {
row.classList.remove('hidden');
});
stripe(); // fire re-striping when showing rows
});
table { width: 70%; border: 1px solid gray; border-collapse: collapse; }
td { border: 1px solid gray; padding: 4px; }
tr.hidden { display: none; }
#tab tr.alt { background-color: #ddd;}
<table id="tab"><tbody>
<tr><td>Row 1</td><td>Hide</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 2</td><td>Hide</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 3</td><td>Hide</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 4</td><td>Hide</td></tr>
<tr><td>Row 5</td><td>Hide</td></tr>
</tbody></table><br />
<a id="show" href="#">Show All</a>

.
It is not a CSS or native JS solution but here is a d3 based solution. You could change classes of the rows every time the rows in your table change.
d3.selectAll("tr.selected").classed("grey",function(d,i){return i%2 == 0});
It adds the grey class to every second row and removes it from all the rest. Then you can color rows using css.
tr.grey {
background:gray;
}
tr:not(.grey) {
background:lightgray;
}
Here is a jsbin that shows this strategy in action.
this is not a perfect solution, but you can use gradient background in table to get desired result.
below is sample using gradient background in table.
tr:not(.selected) {
display: none;
}
table {
background-color: gray;
background-image: linear-gradient(transparent 50%, lightgray 50%);
background-size: 100% 36px;
}
<table width="500" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr class="selected">
<td>A</td>
<td>B</td>
</tr>
<tr class="selected">
<td>C</td>
<td>D</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>E</td>
<td>F</td>
</tr>
<tr class="selected">
<td>G</td>
<td>H</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>I</td>
<td>J</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>E</td>
<td>F</td>
</tr>
<tr class="selected">
<td>G</td>
<td>H</td>
</tr>
<tr class="selected">
<td>G</td>
<td>H</td>
</tr>
<tr class="selected">
<td>G</td>
<td>H</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>I</td>
<td>J</td>
</tr>
</table>
As you correctly pointed out, the reason that the css alternating stripes dont work is that your rows are remaining in place, and just being hidden using display:none.
The trick is to "group" the visible and hidden rows together so that we dont end up with un-event striping. Given that the order of your rows is not important, what we can do is move the hidden rows to either the top (using .insertBefore) or bottom (using .appendChild) of their containing parent. Something similar to this:
my_circles.each(function(d,i) {
if (my_bool===true) {
d3.select(this).classed('selected',true);
var row = tableRows.get(this);
row.parentNode.appendChild(row);
row.classed("selected", true);
}
});

Display two table in two columns in a row on adding

I am using DropzoneJS and I want the template to be customized.
My template is as follows:
<div id="previewTemplate" style="display:none;">
<table class="dz-preview">
<tr>
<td class="col-md-10">
</td>
<td class="col-md-2">
X
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
In dropzone.js, I have added a code as follows:
previewTemplate: $('#previewTemplate').html()
So, it is getting the inner HTML of the '#previewTemplate'.
I am getting all table in a single row.
Now, I want only two table in a row. That is, in each row I want two columns.
How can I achieve that?
well, when I wanted to put a table in a table I would specify a td tag or th tag inside the the td tag, then i'l put in two div tags that acts as the containers of the 2 tables and change their css properties to display "inline-block" or "table-td" and then i'l insert tables inside them, like this:
CSS
.table_inner_1 {
display: inline-block;
}
.table_inner_2 {
margin-left: 10px;
display: inline-block;
}
/*this below is just to target both td's of both of the inner tables*/
.table_inner_1 table tr td:not(:first-child), .table_inner_2 table tr td:not(:first-child)
{
padding-left: 5px;
}
HTML
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<td>
<div class="table_inner_1"><table><tr><td>dummy text</td><td>dummy text</td></tr>
</table></div><div class="table_inner_2"><table><tr><td>dummy text</td><td>dummy text</td></tr></table></div>
</td>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
this works to put tables in tables if that is what you wanted.

Create a Tooltip Out from arbitrary HTML Table

I am trying to create a tooltip on a web page. I want the user to be able to roll over a link, and when they do, display arbitrary html. In this case, its a simple table, containing some meta data. I have tried using jquery.tools, but I am not sure how to use it correctly. Here is the idea:
<a id="foo">FOO</a>
<div id="tooltip-content">
I am visible when the user hovers over FOO
<table>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Foo</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Value</td>
<td>Waka waka</td>
</tr>
....
</table>
</div>
When the user hovers over the link text FOO, I want the div and its content to become visible, floating near the mouse, I don't care if its above, below, left or right of the link text. It just needs to work. What is the simplest / best way to do this? I don't think I can use the title attribute of the link since I want to support an html table, is that correct? How do I do this?
Basic stuff, really. Here's a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/MqcMM/. The reason the table and the link are wrapped in a container is to allow hovering over the table once it is displayed.
HTML:
<div id = "container">
<a id="foo" href = "#">FOO</a>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Foo</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Value</td>
<td>Waka waka</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
CSS:
body {
padding: 50px;
}
#container {
position: relative;
display: table;
}
#container > table {
position: absolute;
white-space: nowrap;
border-collapse: collapse;
display: none;
}
#container > table td {
border: 1px dotted #000;
padding: 2px;
}
#container:hover > table {
display: table;
}

Highlighting a dynamically created row

I have a table where a row gets added every time I press a "Add" button. I have an "Edit" button which is placed in the first cell of the newly created row.
I want to highlight the row that is being edited. I know that I can get the current <tr> element like
var par = $(this).parent().parent();
But when I use,
par.css('border-color', 'red');
It does not change the color.
What mistake am I making and how should I highlight that particular row?
This is really about the styling of the <tr>. CSS doesn't like to style <tr>'s because they really only exist for semantics. In order to add a border to one, you need to make it display: block;.
Here is a jsFiddle and example code.
HTML
<table>
<tbody>
<tr><td>Some Content</td></tr>
<tr><td>Some Content</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>
Edit
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td>Some Content</td></tr>
<tr><td>Some Content</td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Javascript
$(".edit").click(function(e) {
$(this).closest('tr').toggleClass('editting');
e.preventDefault();
});
CSS
table tr {
display: block;
border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
.editting {
background: #FAA;
border: 1px solid red;
}
Please note how I used an rgba color to make the border opaque. There are other ways to do this, but if you leave the border off it causes the table to "jitter."
Assuming this refers to an element within the tr, then it will be better to use .closest() here
var par = $(this).closest('tr')
