Good Day, this maybe a silly question :) how can I pass a parameter to an external javascript function using .on ?
view:
<script>
var attachedPo = 0;
$this.ready(function(){
$('.chckboxPo').on('ifChecked', addPoToBill(attachedPo));
$('.chckboxPo').on('ifUnchecked', removePoToBill(attachedPo ));
});
</script>
external script:
function addPoToBill(attachedPo){
attachedPo++;
}
function removePoToBill(attachedPo){
attachedPo--;
}
but Im getting an error! thanks for guiding :)
You need to wrap your handlers in anonymous functions:
$('.chckboxPo')
.on('ifChecked', function() {
addPoToBill(attachedPo);
})
.on('ifUnchecked', function() {
removePoToBill(attachedPo);
});
You can also chain the calls to on as they are being attached to the same element.
If your intention is to count how many boxes are checked, via passing variable indirectly to functions try using an object instead like this:
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/TrueBlueAussie/pBkhX/
var attachedPo = {
count: 0
};
$(function () {
$('.chckboxPo')
.on('change', function () {
if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
addPoToBill(attachedPo);
} else {
removePoToBill(attachedPo);
}
$("#output").prepend("" + attachedPo.count + "<br/>");
});
});
function addPoToBill(attachedPo) {
attachedPo.count++;
}
function removePoToBill(attachedPo) {
attachedPo.count--;
}
If it is not doing anything else you can simplify the whole thing to count checked checkboxes:
$(function () {
var attachedPo = 0;
$('.chckboxPo')
.on('change', function () {
attachedPo = $(".chckboxPo:checked").length;
});
});
"DOM Ready" events:
you also needed to wrap it in a ready handler like this instead of what you have now:
$(function(){
...
});
*Note: $(function(){YOUR CODE HERE}); is just a shortcut for $(document).ready(function(){YOUR CODE HERE});
You can also do the "safer version" (that ensures a locally scoped $) like this:
jQuery(function($){
...
});
This works because jQuery passes a reference to itself through as the first parameter when your "on load" anonymous function is called.
There are other variations to avoid conflicts with other libraries (not very common as most modern libs know to leave $ to jQuery nowadays). Just look up jQuery.noConflict to find out more.

I have two buttons: one with class btn-star, and the other with btn-current. I am calling an independent function on each of their clicks. But now, I want to call only one function when they are called.
My code is similar to this:
$('document').ready(() => {
$(document).on('click', '.btn-star', function () {
// Do stuff
}
$(document).on('click', '.btn-current', function () {
// Do stuff
}
}
You can try this code. You can use multiple elements click event for one action with only one line code, Just use a comma for separating elements
$('document').ready(() => {
const myFunction= () => {
// Your Code here...
}
$(document).on('click', '.btn-current, .btn-current', function () {
myFunction();
}
}
You can define a function separately and pass it in as callback for both buttons' on click handler. For example -
$('document').ready(() => {
const commonFunc = () => {
// do common stuffs here
}
$(document).on('click', '.btn-star', commonFunc());
$(document).on('click', '.btn-current', commonFunc());
}
Hope that helps!
If you want to call the same function you can select your two button classes, using a simple j-query expression:
$('.btn-star, .btn-current').click(function() {
// Do stuff
}
Ad your selectors separated by a comma, inside the quotation marks.
You can read more about j-query selector at this link:
https://www.sitepoint.com/comprehensive-jquery-selectors/
A little shorter code...
$('document').ready(() => {
function commonFunc() {
//do stuffs here
}
$('.btn-star, .btn-current').on('click', commonFunc);
}
you can try like this:
function test()
{
//your code
}
$(".btn1, .btn2").on("click", funciton(){
test();
});
Try below code
$('.btn-star, .btn-current').on('click', function () {
// Do shared stuff
});

Why is [Javascript] tagged on this post? If it is meant to be there, I'm assuming you are going to accept javascript responses right?
If you're going javascript, it is much easier, and you can just add a onClick='function()' to your html code and do your functions in there.
<html>
<head>
<script>
function buttonFunction(buttonName){
//EDIT 3.0: You can make one button do the same as the other button, but you can also make it do something else at the same time!
if(buttonName == 'btn-star'){
//other code such as:
alert("Stars are awesome!");
}
alert("You just clicked " + buttonName);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id='button1'>
<button id='btn-star' onclick='buttonFunction("btn-star")'>btn-star</button>
</div>
<br/>
<div id='button2'>
<button id='btc-current' onclick='buttonFunction("btn-current")'>btn-current</button>
</div>
</body>
</html>
If you want, you can also additionally make one button do the same as the other, and then after that do something different like I did in this snippet.
P.S: I'm just assuming javascript is allowed, because after all, it is tagged on this post.
EDIT: I showed you an example of one button doing slightly differently then the other, but still the same in a way
ANOTHER EDIT: You can do a lot of stuff with this, added ideas on what else you could do with this snippet.
You can try
$('.btn-star , .btn-current').on('click', function () {
//do something common for elements
});
I have a panel widget with a button. Clicking the button should execute some global actions related to all such widgets and after that execute some local actions related to this widget instance only. Global actions are binded in a separate javascript file by CSS class like this:
var App = function ()
{
var handleWidgetButton = function ()
{
$('.widgetBtn').on('click', function (e)
{
// do smth global
});
return {
init: function ()
{
handleWidgetButton();
}
};
}
}();
jQuery(document).ready(function()
{
App.init();
});
And in the html file local script is like this:
$("#widgetBtn1234").click(function (e)
{
// do smth local
});
Currently local script is executed first and global only after while I want it to be the opposite. I tried to wrap local one also with document.ready and have it run after global but that doesn't seem to change the execution order. Is there any decent way to arrange global and local jQuery bindings to the same element?
The problem you're having comes from using jQuery's .ready() function to initialize App, while you seem to have no such wrapper in your local code. Try the following instead:
var App = function ()
{
var handleWidgetButton = function ()
{
$('.widgetBtn').on('click', function (e)
{
// do smth global
});
return {
init: function ()
{
handleWidgetButton();
}
};
}
}();
$(function()
{
App.init();
});
Then in your local JS:
$(function() {
$("#widgetBtn1234").click(function (e)
{
// do smth local
});
});
Note that $(function(){}) can be used as shorthand for $(document).ready(function(){});. Also, make sure your JS file is located before your local JS, as javascript runs sequentially.
Alternatively, you can use setTimeout() to ensure everything's loaded properly:
(function executeOnReady() {
setTimeout(function() {
// Set App.isInitialized = true in your App.init() function
if (App.isInitialized) runLocalJs();
// App.init() hasn't been called yet, so re-run this function
else executeOnReady();
}, 500);
})();
function runLocalJs() {
$("#widgetBtn1234").click(function (e)
{
// do smth local
});
};
How about this instead:
var widget = $("#widgetBtn1234").get(0);//get the vanilla dom element
var globalHandler = widget.onclick; //save old click handler
// clobber the old handler with a new handler, that calls the old handler when it's done
widget.onclick = function(e){
//do smth global by calling stored handler
globalHandler(e);
//afterward do smth local
};
There might be a more jqueryish way to write this, but I hope the concept works for you.
-------VVVV----keeping old answer for posterity----VVVV--------
Why not something like this?
var App = function ()
{
var handleWidgetButton = function ()
{
$('.widgetBtn').on('click', function (e)
{
// do smth global
if(this.id === 'widgetBtn1234'){
//do specific things for this one
}
});
return {
init: function ()
{
handleWidgetButton();
}
};
}
}();
Please excuse any syntax errors I might have made as I haven't actually tested this code.
Check out my simple JQ extension I created on jsbin.
http://jsbin.com/telofesevo/edit?js,console,output
It allows to call consequentially all defined personal click handlers after a global one, handle missed handlers case if necessary and easily reset all personal handlers.
I know my question have answer in the past but I don't have the vocabulary to find this.
I call a JavaScript function like this:
Voir +
This function change the state of the element .stats-table but I want to know which button have been clicked to call this function?
Better : can I have a jQuery object of this button?
Try to pass the this reference to know which button was clicked,
HTML:

JS:
function showTable(selec,elem){
var currentElem = $(elem); //Clicked element
}
If you don't want to change the signature of the function and the way you invoke it (as others have suggested), you can use the global window.event to identify the clicked element:
function showTable(selector)
{
var clickedElement = window.event.target;
//...
}
See MDN.
When you use jQuery, you might consider refactor your code like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.show-table-link').on('click', function(){
var $usedButton = $(this)
showTable('.stats-table')
}
})

It's good practice to attach the on click handler instead of writing it inline. Further reading document.ready and jQuery event basics.
You can pass any value or id and your can identify the function
<script type="text/javascript">
function showTable(clss_name,fun_id)
{
if(fun_id=='A1')
{
alert("First function Executed");
}
if(fun_id=='A2')
{
alert("Second Function is executed");
}
}
</script>
......

If your function is like this:
function showTable(selec) {
// some code
}
You can get the clicked element like this, using this:
function showTable(selec) {
// some code
var clickedElem = this;
}
I want to call a function with a namespace based on its name.
Perhaps some background: What I want is, dynamically bind pages via $.mobile.loadPage(inStrUrl, { showLoadMsg: false }); and then, based on the current page, invoke a function within a loaded page. For example: each page has a showFilter function, the Event is attached to a main.html - page which should call the matching function in the current page.
I also tried some solutions, with jquery too, but nothing works for me.
This is my function code:
function namespace() { }
namespace.showFilter = function () {
alert("Test");
}
And want to "invoke" or "call" it via its name.
This is what i tried at least.
$(document).ready(function() {
var fn = window["namespace.showFilter"];
fn();
});
I get error TypeError: fn is not a function
Here is a fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/xBCes/1/
You can call it in the following way:
$(document).ready(function() {
window["namespace"]["showFilter"]();
});
or
$(document).ready(function() {
window["namespace"].showFilter();
});
or
$(document).ready(function() {
window.namespace.showFilter();
});
I found that I had to manually set it to window.
window.namespace = function() { }
window.namespace.showFilter = function () {
alert("Test");
};
$(document).ready(function() {
var fn = window["namespace"]["showFilter"];
fn();
});
http://jsfiddle.net/xBCes/4/
Like this:
$(function() {
window.namespace.showFilter();
});
P.S. I shortened the $(document).ready(...)
function namespace() {}
namespace.showFilter = function () {
alert("Test");
}
$(document).ready(function() {
var fn = namespace.showFilter();
fn();
});

I've got following JavaScript functions but want to refactor the $(document).ready() as I've got 2 instance of it. How can I achieve this?
FlashMessenger = {
init: function() {
setTimeout(function() {
$(".flash").fadeOut("slow", function () {
$(".flash").remove();
});
}, 5000);
}
}
SelectLanguage = {
init: function() {
$('#selectLanguageId').change(function() {
$('#frmSelectLanguage').submit();
});
}
}
$(document).ready(FlashMessenger.init);
$(document).ready(SelectLanguage.init);
It’s perfectly acceptable to set multiple handlers for $(document).ready, although you may have a good reason to do otherwise that I’m not aware of. You might be interested in knowing that $(handler) can be used as shorthand for $(document).ready(handler):
$(FlashMessenger.init);
$(SelectLanguage.init);
If you really want them in one call though, try this:
$(function() {
FlashMessenger.init();
SelectLanguage.init();
});
First off, there's no reason you have to combine them.
But if you want to:
$(document).ready(function(jq){
FlashMessenger.init(jq);
SelectLanguage.init(jq);
});
Breaking it down:
Create a function to do all your init (it can be named or anonymous; the one above is anonymous).
Have it call the other init functions, passing in the jQuery instance that jQuery passes you just in case they use it.
You might choose to wrap each init call in a try/catch block as well, so that errors in one init don't prevent the next init from occuring, but that depends on your needs.
Just combine them into one call with an anonymous function:
$(document).ready(function()
{
FlashMessenger.init();
SelectLanguage.init();
});
$(document).ready(function() {
FlashMessenger.init();
SelectLanguage.init();
});
Option 1
FlashMessenger = {
init: function() {
setTimeout(function() {
$(".flash").fadeOut("slow", function () {
$(".flash").remove();
});
}, 5000);
}
}
SelectLanguage = {
init: function() {
$('#selectLanguageId').change(function() {
$('#frmSelectLanguage').submit();
});
}
}
$(function(){
FlashMessenger.init();
SelectLanguage.init();
});
Option 2
FlashMessenger = {
init: function() {
setTimeout(function() {
$(".flash").fadeOut("slow", function () {
$(".flash").remove();
});
}, 5000);
}
}
SelectLanguage = {
init: function() {
$('#selectLanguageId').change(function() {
$('#frmSelectLanguage').submit();
});
}
}
$(document).ready(function(){
FlashMessenger.init();
SelectLanguage.init();
});
Option 3
You actually don't need those 2 objects since the only hold the init methods, so here's the ultimate solution, in my opinion, unless you use those objects elsewhere.
$(function(){
$('#selectLanguageId').change(function() {
$('#frmSelectLanguage').submit();
});
setTimeout(function() {
$(".flash").fadeOut("slow", function () {
$(".flash").remove();
});
}, 5000);
})
I prefer 2 and 3 for this reason.
I think what the op is saying is, "If in the future I have a third function to be invoked at document.ready, then how do I do it without touching that piece of code?"
If you do not want multiple $(document).ready() calls, you could just create an array called startupHooks and add each method to it:
startupHooks[ startupHooks.length ] = myNewStartupHook;
and your startup script could look like
$(document).ready(function() {
for( var i=0; i<startupHooks.length; i++ ) {
startupHooks[i]();
}
}
I know that is not mighty useful, but if that appeals to you, you can do it this way.
Personally, I'd go with multiple $(document).ready() calls.
Personally I'd go for not using document.ready at all.
If you place the scripts at the end of your html-page(just before the tag) you can just write in any way you like.
Maybe this doesn't work for 0.01% of the scripts but it never failed to work for me.
Positive effect of this is that the initial HTML+CSS rendering goes faster.
