Question. I've tried to add this old jQuery Regex Selector plugin but it doesn't seem to give me back the right tag. At least, it says undefined when I try to return any info on it. I hope to use this someday for a game so I can select dynamic tags and things like all the foreground elements.
$('#button').click(function() {
var elm = $('img:regex(data:extension, png)');
elm.each(function() { alert($(this).attr('alt')); });
});
But all I get back is undefined when I alert the elm I get back [object Object]
JSFiddle
From the documentation you linked to: (emphasis mine)
Additionally it allows you to query data strings added to elements via jQuery’s ‘data’ method:
// Add data property to all images (just an example);
$('img').each(function(){
$(this).data('extension', $(this)[0].src.match(/\.(.{1,4})$/)[1]);
});
// Select all images with PNG or JPG extensions:
$('img:regex(data:extension, png|jpg)');
You would need to run both parts of that code, not just the second part. Your image in your example does not have a data attribute.
--EDIT--
Also, you don't need regex to get this functionality, just do this:
var elm = $('img[src$=png]');
Here's a fiddle

I am doing a school project that is a Movie lookup app connected to guidebox API. I am using Materialize CSS and trying to organize the information into their tabs system. They are added dynamically so the documentation says to initialize in javascript. It says to use:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('ul.tabs').tabs();
});
However that doesn't work for me I guess since the tabs are not present at Doc Ready thaey are not pushed into the DOM until a submit request. I put just the
$('ul.tabs').tabs();
into a few places in my code and the best result was it working on the first movie returned on each search but for each subsequent return item the tabs break.
I could use some guidance on whether I can plug that in somewhere to make my existing code work.
https://github.com/jasonboru/group_project1_guidebox.git
There are some missing ending tags in your dynamically created dom elements.
Apart this, in this file assets/js/logic.js the following there are the following two lines:
$('.guidebox-search-results').append(movieResult);
$('ul.tabs').tabs();
That menas, whenever you add new tabs element you initialize them.
The mistake I see is: in this way you initialize every tabs not only the new one. And, because you have already initilized the old one I can suggest you to rewrite the previous two lines in this format:
$('.guidebox-search-results').append(movieResult);
$('.guidebox-search-results').find('ul.tabs').tabs();
You can bind on every event, when node inserted in dom and after that, do with it what you want.
$(document).bind('DOMNodeInserted', function(e) {
var element = e.target;
});
SOLVED:
Final fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/AcfUz/220/
*used the selector indicated in the chosen answer and moved the console.log value ahead of the text input the selected options were to be listed in and boom--working as it should!
Please reference this fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/AcfUz/218/
jQuery(document).on('click', '#go', function() {
console.log("woo");
var selMulti = jQuery.map(jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select :selected"), function(e) {
return jQuery(e).val();
console.log("hoo");
});
//var selMulti = jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select :selected").val();
console.log(selMulti + "hmm...");
console.log("hootie");
//jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation").val(selMulti.join(", "));
jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation").val(selMulti);
console.log("who");
});
This works perfectly on fiddle but no matter how many iterations I try it won't work on the live site. The variable containing the desired values is always empty. I can't for the life of me figure out why?????
Can anyone shed some light in my hour of desperation? It's been 7 hours and I need to solve this before the morning.
I suppose to expand on this--the code in the fiddle is the code I include in the site. The form and then the script before the closing body tag. The form is dynamically loaded (takes about a second). What I need to accomplish is grabbing whatever values a user selects from any of the multi select fields (I'm starting with the one) and copy those as a comma separated list into another single line text input. The fiddle works splendidly, but I'm coming up empty on the live site. I just returns blank/empty--it doesn't give me any console errors what so ever (save for a missing img) and I can see my console.log checkpoints.
Here is the live link:

On the live website if I try $("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select option") in the console, the options are listed twice. Using $('select') 2 #inf_custom_Choosealocation_select are returned. (although I didn't see 2 instances in the page source) ($("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select"); returns one, but that uses getElementbyID and skips the search). Perhaps the second select is created by some sort of overlay?
All in all, I didn't search any further where the 2nd select come from. A quick fix would be to use a selector searching the attribute. The following selector worked while testing on the live site:
$("select[id=inf_custom_Choosealocation_select] :selected")
But that might be only a temporary work around. You'll probably want to find the ghost select culprit too ;)
You are not using jQuery map in fiddle, where as you have jquery map in your live code...
Try to update your live site with the code you have in fiddle.
Live Code: (has jQuery map)
So, yeah, I am not sure why :selected isn't working in your case, but you can try to go through the options and check manually... jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select option").each(function(i, o){ console.log(o.selected) })
Try wrapping your code inside
jQuery(document).ready(function(){});
Instead of using
var selMulti = jQuery.map(jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select :selected"), function(e) {
return jQuery(e).val();
console.log("hoo");
});
use
var selMulti=jQuery("#inf_custom_Choosealocation_select").val();
Hy, I'm having some problems making lightbox (in my case slimbox 2) work
after new content is loaded. I understand that slimbox needs to be called again, but I tried almost everything.
Here is the code how new content is been loaded:
...var link = $('<a class="loadpost" href="javascript:">Load more</a>');
link.click(loadMore);...
loadMore is the function that loads new content. this is just a piece of code. if you need the whole code let me know.
Here is the slimbox code.
jQuery(function($) {
$("a[rel^='lightbox']").slimbox({/* Put custom options here */}, null, function(el) {
return (this == el) || ((this.rel.length > 8) && (this.rel == el.rel));
});
the new content has the rel attributes but it wont work. can i combine the click function from above to call slimbox code again.
Long version:
Without more of the code (if you can, make a jsfiddle or something similar) it's hard to know if this is the only issue, but one immediate issue I'm seeing is that you're using jQuery's $(" ") wrong. You're supposed to put a selector in there, so that jQuery can find whatever it is you want it to find in the DOM; what you're feeding it is a string of HTML.
Browsers use HTML to make the DOM (Document Object Model) tree, which you can think of as an abstracted logic tree of your HTML; the DOM sees 'a.loadpost' as a parent of the text node inside of it (in this case, 'Load more'). CSS and Javascript/jQuery both find information from that abstracted logic tree in pretty similar ways. With a few exceptions, if you know how to target something with CSS, you know how to target it with jQuery -- just select whatever HTML you need to select the same way you would with CSS.
So, to tell jQuery to do something to a link with a class of 'loadpost', you simply write $('a.loadpost'). $("a.loadpost") works as well.
Short version:
var link = $('a.loadmore');
Is there any way to remove the tooltip from title attribute without actually remove the title.
I have a link with a title attribute like this
It is important that the title is intact since I need to read the url from there. All the fixes for this that I have found is to remove the title attribute and reuse it but in this case this is not possible.
Any ideas?
It's all about the browser. It's the browser that sees the title as a tooltip, from the browser specifications and interpretations.
You should use if you want to handle data like that, the HTML5 way (which you can use in any other document type as it's ignored) and use:
with the data- attributes, there will be no tooltip as title is not used, and you can easily get that using:
$("a").attr("data-title")
but, you will need to convert stuff and you said that you don't/can't do that.
you can easily convert all titles into data-title and clean the title using
$("a").attr("data-title", function() { return $(this).attr("title"); } );
$("a").removeAttr("title");
(all code is to be used with jQuery Framework)
As you didn't mark this question as jquery, I'm assuming that you'd be open to a pure JavaScript solution?
The following works (on Ubuntu 11.04) in Firefox 5, Chromium 12 and Opera 11, I'm unable to test in IE, but as I'm using querySelectorAll() I'd suspect that it wouldn't work well, if at all. However:
var titled = document.querySelectorAll('[title]'); // gets all elements with a 'title' attribute, as long as the browser supports the css attribute-selector
var numTitled = titled.length;
for (i=0; i<numTitled; i++){
titled[i].setAttribute('data-title',titled[i].title); // copies from 'title' to 'data-title' attribute
titled[i].removeAttribute('title'); // removes the 'title' attribute
}
JS Fiddle demo.

document.querySelectorAll at the Mozilla Developer Network.
Why don't you use jQuery to move this information from title to element data.
Run this on element load:
$(el).data('url', $(el).attr('title')).attr('title', '');
And afterwards read URL like this:
$(el).data('url');
Variable el here is DOM element or element selector.
I'm using the niceforms plugin to style my select box. The problem I'm having is that I can't get the right javascript code to activate the links placed in the value option.
The niceforms site (http://www.emblematiq.com/lab/niceforms/help/) instructs me to use the following code:
el.lnk._onclick = el.onclick || function () {
if(this.ref.oldClassName == "NFOnChange") {
//insert your code here
}};
This is my attempt at manipulating the code to allow url linking in the select drop down
el.lnk._onclick = el.onclick || function () {
if(this.ref.oldClassName == "NFOnChange") {
//code i added
window.location.href = $(this.ref).val();
}};
The PROBLEM is the links do not work as expected, they do not link to their corresponding values.
form class ="niceform"
select class ="NFOnchange"
option value = "http://link1.com" -> link1.com
option value = "http://link2.com" -> link2.com
option value = "http://link3.com" -> link3.com
Please any help with this would be appreciated. I just need to insert the right bit of code to make the links correspond to their option values.
Ok, first off "$" is used by almost every major JS library, so:
window.location.href = $(this.ref).val();
means nothing unless you tell us which JS library you are using.
If you are using jQuery, val() should work. I would confirm that $this.ref) is actually what you think it is by adding this right before that line:
console.log($(this.ref))
(the above assumes you use Firebug or the Chrome developer console ... if you're not using one of these tools, you should be ;-))
If that shows that you are actually selecting a SELECT element, then something funny is going on, but I suspect it isn't.
Also, as a side note I think you can probably just do:
$(this)
if you're using jQuery.
If you're not using jQuery ... tell us what you are using, and we can go from there.
Oh, and if you're not using any library, and $ is just your own custom function, then Felix was correct in pointing out that JS has no built in "value()" method on elements. The closest you will find is .selectedIndex, which is a property of any SELECT element that tells you the index (out of all of the options) of the selected option (and then by looking at the list of available options you can tell the ".value" property of the appropriate one).
