About draggable elements in jquery - javascript

I don't have much experience with jQuery.
I have 4 li elements and a draggable block. When I drag from green to blue, first I need my dragging block to stand behind blue and not go out from the borders of the container, meaning that my draggable element must be always snap into the container.
When my draggable element stand behind blue, the background color must be changed from brown to red.
Can anybody help me? Because I don't really know how to do this. All what I have at this moment is: JSFiddle
HTML
<div id="container" class="ui-widget-header">
<div id="draggable" class="ui-widget-content"></div>
<ul id="menu">
<li id="menuElement1"></li>
<li id="menuElement2"></li>
<li id="menuElement3"></li>
<li id="menuElement4"></li>
</ul>
</div>
CSS
body {
background-color: brown;
}
#container {
position: relative;
}
#menu,
#draggable {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
#draggable {
width: 100px;
height: 150px;
}
#menu {
margin-left: -40px;
}
ul li {
display: block;
float: left;
padding: 50px;
}
#menuElement1 {
background-color: green;
}
#menuElement2 {
background-color: blue;
}
#menuElement3 {
background-color: black;
}
#menuElement4 {
background-color: red;
}
#container {
height: 150px;
width: 100%;
background-color: gray;
JQuery
$(function() {
$( "#draggable" ).draggable({ snap: ".ui-widget-header" });
});

Here's an updated fiddle
You'd do well to read this article on Droppable from the jQuery docs. Basically you were half way there, you need to make an element (the blue box, with id #menuElement2) droppable to provide a target for a draggable element
$('#menuElement2').droppable({
drop: function( event, ui ) {
//Do something here...
}
});
Within the drop function (this fired when the block is dropped on the target) you need to perform your action.
$('body').css({'background-color': 'red'});
This adds a custom css rule to the body that changes the colour, again check out the jQuery docs - search for 'jQuery css'.
Hope this helps :)
Update: I just updated the fiddle again to make it revert back to brown when you change selection - not sure if you wanted this but it can be easily removed by commenting out the css change within the drag function.

Div flickers on hover

I have read a lot of the questions on here but can't find one that fixes this. I have programmed a div to follow my cursor. I only want it to appear when the cursor is over #backgroundiv. I have got it working but it sometimes randomly flickers on chrome and disappears entirely on firefox. Even more randomly is it sometimes appears to work and then starts flickering. I have tried a variety of things from hover to mouseenter/mouseover but nothing seems to work.
What I want is for #newdot to appear when the cursor is over #backgroundiv and then follow the cursor around the div. Any help would be much appreciated.
//hide dot when leaves the page
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#backgroundiv").hover(function() {
$("#newdot").removeClass("hide");
}, function() {
$("#newdot").addClass("hide");
});
});
//div follows the cursor
$("#backgroundiv").on('mousemove', function(e) {
//below centres the div
var newdotwidth = $("#newdot").width() / 2;
$('#newdot').css({
left: e.pageX - newdotwidth,
top: e.pageY - newdotwidth
});
});
//tried below too but it doesn't work
/*$(document).ready(function(){
$("#backgroundiv").mouseenter(function(){
$("#newdot").removeClass("hide");
});
$("#backgroundiv").mouseout(function(){
$("#newdot").addClass("hide");
});
}); */
#backgroundiv {
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
background-color: blue;
z-index: 1;
}
#newdot {
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
background-color: red;
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
}
.hide {
display: none;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="newdot"></div>
<div id="backgroundiv"></div>
There is not issue but a logical behavior, when you hover on the blue div you trigger mouseenter so you remove the class and you see the red one BUT when you hover the red one you trigger mouseleave from the blue div thus you add the class and you hide the red one. Now the red is hidden you trigger again the mouseenter on the blue div and you remove the class again and the red div is shown, and so on ... this is the flicker.
To avoid this you can consider the hover on the red box to make the red box appear on its hover when you lose the hover from the blue one.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#backgroundiv").hover(function() {
$("#newdot").removeClass("hide");
}, function() {
$("#newdot").addClass("hide");
});
});
//div follows the cursor
$("#backgroundiv").on('mousemove', function(e) {
//below centres the div
var newdotwidth = $("#newdot").width() / 2;
$('#newdot').css({
left: e.pageX - newdotwidth,
top: e.pageY - newdotwidth
});
});
#backgroundiv {
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
background-color: blue;
z-index: 1;
}
#newdot {
width: 40px;
height: 40px;
background-color: red;
position: absolute;
z-index: 2;
}
.hide {
display: none;
}
/* Added this code */
#newdot:hover {
display: block;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="newdot">
</div>
<div id="backgroundiv">

try this. I think this is what you are excepting but I'm not sure since you keep editing your question.
Demo Link: http://plnkr.co/edit/n7rdgqTwiFrXtpgoX4TQ?p=preview
$('#myclick1').click(function(){
$('#mypop2').show();
});
$('#myclick2').click(function(){
$('#mypop2').show();
});
You have couple of things mixed up.
The main stop-point was the very first event listener
$('#mypop').click(function(e) {
which is incompatible with the rest of listeners
$(document).on('click','#myclick1',function(e){
after I have changed it to
$(document).on('click','#mypop', function(e){
the other listeners have started working.
Second thing is that for embedded elements (parent-child) you need to stop event propagation, otherwise the parent event is triggered as well (which is not desired)
$(document).on('click','#myclick1',function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
:
});
I have also changed the CSS a bit and added class hide to use instead of styles. Toggling this class is what hides and shows an element.

Jquery .animate acts unintentionaly

I don't know why suddenly the sidebar moves unintentionally. I'm creating a fixed sidebar that show only when hovered.
When I slowly point the mouse on the parent div #containter element it works fine, but when I move the mouse several times on the parent div element #containter the div shows and hide like insane. And also there an area where the parent div shows even you didn't actually hovered on the parent div.
I'm using this code.
HTML
<div id="containter"><!-- parent div -->
<div class="wrapdownload">
</div>
<div class="wrapdownload">
</div>
<div class="wrapdownload">
</div>
</div>
CSS
#containter {
width: 140px;
height: 282px;
position: fixed;
margin-top: 30px;
left: -104px;
border: 1px solid red;
}
.wrapdownload {
width: 100px;
height: 90px;
border: 2px solid black;
}
JAVASCRIPT
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#containter").mouseenter(function(event) {
$("#containter").animate({
left: "1px"
});
});
$("#containter").mouseleave(function(event) {
$("#containter").animate({
left: "-104px"
});
});
});
When you hover on the parent div for six times the div show 6 times also. I just want it to show when the mouse is pointed on div element and if i move the mouse outside the parent div, it must hide.
Here is the sample on jsfiddle https://jsfiddle.net/py0622ms/6/
Use stop() method:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#containter").mouseenter(function(event) {
$("#containter").stop().animate({
left: "1px"
});
});
$("#containter").mouseleave(function(event) {
$("#containter").stop().animate({
left: "-104px"
});
});
});

jQuery UI: cannot read property left of undefined

I keep getting the error cannot read property left of undefined when I drag the sortable jQuery UI elements around. Everything is working like I intend but I keep getting the error and would like to fix the problem causing it.
The intent is to have a sortable list with multi-select capability so that you are not forced to drag one element at a time. Like I said that is working and I followed the code on this fiddle
The strange thing is when I created a codepen to include with this question I am not getting the error message in the console anymore. I tried codepen and jsfiddle. I realize it may be difficult to troubleshoot if you can not see the error for yourself but am hoping someone might be able to spot a mistake or give me suggestions on what to check.
Here is my codepen and some code:
EDIT:
The problem has been solved thanks to a comment. I needed to change my jQuery version.

When you load js file?
If you load js files above the dom elements you handle,
your javascript code $( selector ) will not work properly.
Maybe Codepen and fiddle load your js files after dom elements, so the error will not occurs.
check your html file's javascript load point.
Many people likes following.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<!-- your dom elements -->
<script src="yourJavascript.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
If you load js files just before </body>, you can use your dom elements in yourJavascript.js
I had the same error, although in a somewhat different scenario (I was adding items manually to a sortable list). My problem was also highly sensitive to timing and environment options, sometimes it ran ok, sometimes not.
This stack overflow answer helped me onto the right track (I needed to clone the object before I added it to the list)
Please try to adding containment in sortable.
Default: false
Defines a bounding box that the sortable items are constrained to while dragging.
Note: The element specified for containment must have a calculated width and height (though it need not be explicit). For example, if you have float: left sortable children and specify containment: "parent" be sure to have float: left on the sortable/parent container as well or it will have height: 0, causing undefined behavior.
$( ".selector" ).sortable({
containment: "parent"
});
Have you tried wrapping the whole thing in jQuery, which would delay execution until DOMReady.
$(function () { /*...YOUR CODE HERE...*/ });

Dim rest screen on hover of menu

Following is my js fiddle in which i tried to create a light out effect like the following website bankalhabib.com, The issue is that on hover on menu my rest of screen is not getting dim which i actually want and instead only my menu is getting dim.
Kindly let me know ow can i resolve this issue so i can achieve the same effect as above mentioned site?
Thanks,
http://jsfiddle.net/49Qvm/9/
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>Num</li>
</ul>
$('li').hover(function(){
$(this).addClass('hovered');
},function(){
$(this).removeClass('hovered');
});
I think your best bet would be to create an element for the darken effect on the screen. When you hover over the ul element it will toggle the visibility of the darkening element.
You will need to be sure that the z-index value for the ul element is higher than the element that provides the darkening effect (Remember this! When setting z-index on an element you will need to be sure to set it's position CSS property to relative, fixed, or absolute).
Here's a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/49Qvm/28/
Try this javascript/css that utilizes z-index to create a focused effect.
CSS
.link {
z-index: 700;
list-style-type: none;
padding: 0.5em;
background: black;
display: inline-block;
cursor: pointer;
color: white;
}
.dim {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: -6;
display: none;
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
background: rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}
body {
background-color: orange;
}
jQuery
var $dim = $('.dim');
$('.link').hover(function(){
$dim.fadeIn(200);
}, function(){
$dim.fadeOut(200);
});
HTML
<div class="dim"></div>
<ul>
<div class="link"><li>Home</li></div>
<div class="link"><li>Home</li></div>
<div class="link"><li>Home</li></div>
<div class="link"><li>Home</li></div>
</ul>
Some text here
http://jsfiddle.net/49Qvm/33/
I think maybe this is a scoping issue. Inside the context of the function, "this" refers to the function not the li element. I used to run into a lot of problems related to this. The solution for my cases were to look into using closures to ensure you are adding the class to the correct html element.
