I've got a column with a URL set to execute a function on click, but when I click it, it goes adds a # to the end of the url instead of executing the function. The URL is registering as:
<a onclick='OpenLandLRegistration(1)' href='#'>Register</a>
Here's the javascript code:
function OpenLandLRegistration(event_id){
var eventurl ="/Lists/Events/DispForm.aspx?ID="+meeting_id;
var options = {
url:"/Lists/Attendees/Item/newifs.aspx?List=%7B9E2217C5%2DE878%2D406D%2DB25A%2D2FA7EAADFC17%7D&meeting_id="+meeting_id,
width: 750,
height: 600,
dialogReturnValueCallback: DialogCallback
};
//SP.SOD.execute('sp.ui.dialog.js', 'SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog', options);
window.open(eventurl);
}
function DialogCallback(dialogResult, returnValue){ }
EDIT:: Here is a working example of what I'm trying to do:
link
The javascript converts the link to html and the executes the function on click.
To prevent a link from firing, just add a return false; at the end of your OpenLandLRegistration() function.
Also the problem could be coming from the fact that in this example, at least, the meeting_id variable you're attempting concatenate with "/Lists/Events/DispForm.aspx?ID=" is undefined, so it'll throw a reference error and exit immediately.
Also worth noting that nothing is happening with options either, beyond it getting defined.
Have you heard of Firebug for Firefox? It's an excellent debugger for javascript that can really help you step through bugs as you work through things like this.

I have the follwing javascript code that it triggers an IronPython script when I load the report.
The only issue I have is that for a reason I don't know it does it (it triggers the script) a couple of times.
Can some one help me? below is the script:
var n=0;
$(function () {
function executeScript() {
if (n==0){
n=n+1;
now = new Date();
if (now.getTime()-$('#hiddenBtn input').val()>10000){
$('#hiddenBtn input').val(now.getTime());
$('#hiddenBtn input').focus();
$('#hiddenBtn input').blur();
}
}
}
$(document).ready(function(){executeScript()});
strong text});
Please, let me know if you need more information.
Thanks in advance!!!
I have had similar issues with Javascript executing multiple times. Spotfire seems to instance the JS more than once, and it can cause some interesting behavior...
the best solution, in my opinion, only works if users are accessing the document via a link (as opposed to browsing the library). pass a configuration block to set a document property with a current timestamp, which would execute your IP script. this is the most solid implementation.
otherwise, you can try something like this:
// get a reference to a container on the page with an ID "hidden"
var $hidden = $("#hiddenBtn input");
// only continue if the container is empty
if !($hidden.text()) {
var now = Date.now();
$hidden.text(now)
.focus()
.blur();
|}
this is essentially the same as the code you posted, but instead of relying on the var n, you're counting on the input #hiddenBtn > input being empty. there is a caveat that you'll have to ensure this field is empty before you save the document
one addtional solution is using a Data Function to update the document property, like #user1247722 shows in his answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40712635/4419423
So I have a simple tab system which I handle with the .load function to load the desired content. The problem is that the page itself which contains this tab system is a ajax loaded content. And for some reason the initial call of the tab function to display the initial tab content won't work. But after manually choosing a tab, the load function loads the content properly.
her some code to look at:
The tab handler:
function loadTab(tab) {
$(".tab_a:eq("+otab+")").removeClass("tab_slc");
$('#tab_content').hide();
$('#tab_content').load("include/tab_downloadVersions.html .tab:eq("+tab+")");
$(".tab_a:eq("+tab+")").addClass("tab_slc");
$('#tab_content').fadeIn(function() {});
otab = tab;
}
at the end I call loadTab(tab); and the thing should be initialized. but for some reason the content remains empty. As soon as you manually click on a tab (I have an on click function which calls loadTab(tab) everything starts working)
Because the code by itself works, I think the problem is caused by the other script which handles the page itself. It is also a .load function which loads the page, which loads this tab system.
So do multiple .loads don't like each other? and if so, what can I change?
Thanks in advance ;)
EDIT: I could't post the entire code for some reason, but if you go here you can see the site in action with all the scripts:
n.ethz.ch/student/lukal/paint.net
The tab system is on the download page.
EDIT:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Big Update
So this is still the same issue but with a slight twist: I did what was recommended in the comments and put my secondary .load() call inside the success call of the first one.
$("#content").load("pages/contact #contentInside", function() {
$("#OtherContent").load("include/info #OtherContentInside");
});
So this works.
But now I had the great idea to make a giant load function. It is a slightly better function than just the plain load, cause it does some fading and stuff. But now I have the same problem, but even more complicated. I created the load function as a "plugin" so the function itself is in a different script file and therefore I can't access the inside of the success function. I solved this problem with a return $.ajax(); and a .done() call. The problem here is that there is some rare case where it just skips the secondary load function. So I am searching for a guaranteed way of controlling the order of the .load calls. Any idea?
The mock-up website is up to date with the new scripts if you wish to take a look. And people were complaining about potential virus spread from my link. For some reason I can't post long code snippets so the site is the best source I got to show everything. If you know a more trustworthy way to share my code please let me know.
We cannot see the rest of your code to tell where the initial call is being invoked from. A set up like the following should work:
$(function() {
var tab = 0;
loadTab( tab );
});
function loadTab(tab) {
//WHAT IS otab???
$(".tab_a:eq("+otab+")").removeClass("tab_slc"); //<<<==== otab
$('#tab_content').hide();
$('#tab_content').load("include/tab_downloadVersions.html .tab:eq("+tab+")");
$(".tab_a:eq("+tab+")").addClass("tab_slc");
$('#tab_content').fadeIn(function() {});
otab = tab;
}
Update
The reason it does not work initial is because otab is not defined the first time the function is called. You have initialized otab at the end of the function but you are using it at the beginning of the function.
UPDATE 2
I have had a chance to look at your code and I just found out what the issues are:
You do not have DOM ready
You are not calling the function on page load.
The following version of your code should work -- try not to use global variable as you're doing with otab. Since you're loading this script at the end of the page (an you are using event delegation) you may get away with DOM ready. Adding .trigger('click') or click() as indicated below should resolve the issue.
//Tab-loader
//Haeri Studios
var tab = 0;
var otab = tab;
var counter = 0;
//click detect
$(document).on('click', '.tab_a', function() {
tab = counter == 0 ? tab : ($(this).attr('id'));
loadTab(tab);
counter++;
return false;
})
.trigger('click'); //<<<<<===== This will call the function when the page loads
//Tab setup
function loadTab(tab) {
//Content Setup
$(".tab_a:eq("+otab+")").removeClass("tab_slc");
$('#tab_content').hide();
$('#tab_content').load("include/tab_downloadVersions.html .tab:eq("+tab+")");
$(".tab_a:eq("+tab+")").addClass("tab_slc");
$('#tab_content').fadeIn(function() {});
otab = tab;
}
//Initialize << WHAT ARE YOUR INTENTIONS HERE .. DO YOU REALLY NEED THIS PIECE?
$.ajax({success: function() {
loadTab(tab);
}});
A partial answer to this problem was to call the loadTab function inside the success call of the page load function, like charlietfl pointed out. But the problem is that there is no need to call the tabloader every time a new page gets called. So I would rather not have a rare call in every page setup function.
I am a bit disappointed by the system on stackoverflow. It seems like if you have not a high reputation level, no one gives a "S" about your questions. Well but at least some input was give, for which I am very thankful.
So by digging deeper into google I found out that the callback can be manually placed in the function where ever you like.
so if we have a function:
foo(lol, function() {
//This after
});
this does stuff after foo() is done. But what if we have another function inside foo() which we also need to wait for:
function foo(lol) {
bar(troll, function() {
//This first
});
}
The bar function is not relevant to the success call of foo. This causes the unpredictable outcome of calls.
The trick is to control when the success function of foo gets called.
If we add a parameter(callback) inside foo and call this "parameter" (callback();) inside the success call of bar, we can make sure the order is guaranteed.
And that's it:
function foo(lol, callback) {
bar(troll, function() {
//This first
callback(); //<-This callback placement defines when it should be triggered
});
}
foo(lol, function() {
//This after
});
We get:
//this first
//this after
I'm displaying a series of images in a loop, and I'm trying to implement some sort of nudity filter so I'm using nude.js, a library that can somewhat detect nudity. Here's the code:
// we're inside a loop
$(".images").prepend($("<img>").attr({src: whatever, id: uniqueid}).load(function(e) {
nude.load(e.target.id);
nude.scan(function(result) { if (!result) $(e.target).detach(); });
});
However, it detaches all of the wrong images because nude.js is slow and it completes after the loop has gone on to the later iterations, detaching those images instead of the one it was working on.
I've tried using a function factory:
function generateCallback(arg) {
return function(result) { if (!result) $(arg).detach(); };
}
and
nude.scan( generateCallback(e.target) )
but the same thing happens.
What I want is a load event that will remove the image if it seems to contain nudity. How can I do this properly?
EDIT: nude.js works like this:
nude.load(imageid);
nude.scan(callback); // it'll pass true or false into the callback
another edit: accidentally omitted the id setting from the code I posted, but it was there in my real code, so I added it here.
I suspect the case here is that this kind of sequential processing won't work with nude.js.
Looking at the nude.js code, I think your problem is occurring in the call to nude.scan. nude.js has a variable that stores the function to invoke after the scan has completed. When calling nude.scan(callback), this variable is set to be callback.
From your PasteBin, it seems as though the callback gets assigned as expected on the first call, but on the second and subsequent calls, it gets replaced, hence why the second image is detached and not the first.
What happends to your script, is that the e var is global to the function and so after each loop it gets replaced with the new one. So when the first image is scanned, e already became the event of the second image, which get detached.
To solve your problem, use closures. If you want to know more about closures, have a look here.
Otherway, here's the solution to your problem :
$(".images").prepend($("<img>").attr({src: whatever, id: uniqueid}).load(function(e) {
(function(e) {
nude.load(e.target.id);
nude.scan(function(result) { if (!result) $(e.target).detach(); });
}) (e);
});
EDIT: AS nick_w said, there is var that contains the callback and probably gets replaced each time so this is why it isn't the right picture getting detached. You will probably have to modify the script yourself
Is there any way to make my browser tell me what is the first JavaScript that is executed when I click on for instance a div.
Let me break it down:
Code example:
<div id='hello'> Hi There </div>
jQuery('hello').bind('click', function() { alert('hello') });
The code above will naturally display hello when I click on it. But is there a way to make firebug or console in Chrome to automatically break on the first very first JavaScript call without explicit set the break point.
In a complex JavaScript web pages there is a lot of binds but takes hours to find what is the actual code behind it.
you can get all events of an element with console.log($(element).data("events"));
So if I'm following the question you have this scenario:
jQuery('#hello') //function call 1
.bind('click', function(){ function call 2
alert('hello');
});
One method to do this would be to override the function you want to test. You cache the actual function, overwrite it with yours to do debugging in, then execute your cache with the original arguments.
(function(){
var _jquery = jQuery;
jQuery = function(){
console.log('debug');
_jquery(arguments);
}
})();
I'm binding the window.onload event like this
// It's a little more complex than this, I analyze if there is any other function
// attached but for the sake of the question it's ok, this behaves the same.
window.onload = myfunction;
Onload is triggered twice on my local machine a several times on the production server
If I change it by the jQuery equivalent
$jQuery(window).load(myfunction);
It behaves as expected (executed only once).
Could you help me to understand possible reasons why the first option it's not working as supposed?
Thanks!
The parentheses on your assignment — myfunction() — executes your function. You haven't shown what myfunction does, but this means that the return value from that function is being assigned to window.onload, not the function itself. So, I don't know how that is getting executed, unless you have somehow got that to work, like ending the function with return this;
You want
window.onload = myfunction;
Given the nature of window.onload, it seems unlikely that pure browser events alone are making both calls to myfunction. Therefore, a breakpoint inside your function will help you see the call stack. I've included screenshots for Chrome.
Sample code:
var alertme = function() {
alert("Hello");
}
window.onload = alertme;
function testsecondcall() {
alertme();
}
testsecondcall();
Open your page in Chrome.
After the page has loaded once, open the Developer Tools panel and put a breakpoint on the line inside your function, then refresh the page.
Check the call stack of both times that it breaks. One will be empty (the actual window.onload). The other should give you some information like the following:
On the right, under "Call Stack", you see alertme is called by testsecondcall
