I want to make a content box with jquery tabs with a tab navigation for many tab contents, such as for more than 10 tab contents. The problem is that jquery UI does not provide built in tab navigation for large tab number and the "scrollable tabs for jquery plugin" at google code, https://code.google.com/p/jquery-ui-scrollable-tabs/, looks very slow and inefficient for large volumes about more than 50 pages. If the user tries to read the 1st and the 40th page, it will take more than 30 sec. to navigate for clicking the arrows.
So, I made a tab content box with only 5 tabs including selected shown and with a tab navigation of input text box selecting specific pages and next and previous with the first and the last page tab navigation buttons. (If you put regular jquery UI tab with more than 20-30 tabs it will mess up appearance and css.)
<div id="tabs" class="tabs-bottom">
<ul>
<li>Nunc tincidunt
</li>
<li>Proin dolor
</li>
<li>Aenean lacinia
</li>
</ul>
<ul class="TabbedPageNavi">
<li>Page
<input id="pageNumber" type="text" value="01" style="width:30px;" />
</li>
<li><a class="previous" href="#">« Prev</a>
</li>
<li><a class="nexttab" href="#">Next »</a>
</li>
<li class="copyTab">2013 ©John3825 blog</li>
</ul>
<div class="tabs-spacer"></div>
<div id="tab-contents">
<div id="tabs-1">

What is the best possible way to manage the large numbers of content tabs with navigation? Please tell me a example or correct problems.
I also want to make the tab content box fit within 350px width x 1000px height.
As far as the best possible way is concerned,there are many of them.One suggestion would be using iFrames.
The Result would be quite like this : DEMO
Or either your approach is quite scalable and is old-school which is good thing in reference of compatibility and usability. Now the other requirement goes like this. You set the width:350px; and the height:1000px for the content-tab like this.
Working Fiddle: DEMO
Code:
#tab-content{
height: 1000px !important;
width:350px;
background-color:darkgrey;
border:2px ridge black;
}

TLDR: Can I force a column layout refresh after dynamically updating the 'css-column' css with javascript/jquery?
I have a navigation menu that I am using css columns for (I cannot work out how to use the Magento2 menu column functionality). I cannot really change the markup much. I want to stop 'widow' titles from happening (titles at the bottom of the column, with all the content on the next column - see 3rd pink title in screenshot below). It cannot be set with css as the nav items are dynamic and will change.
(I have tried "break-after:avoid" on the parent list, but this stops the list from breaking altogether - i.e. it should be able to break anywhere in the middle of the list).
I came up with a hacky solution that almost works - with javascript I am dynamically adding "break-before: column" to any list that has a widow title. (It checks the left offset of the title, compared with the offset of the first list child. If it is different then it means the title starts on the previous column).
This (sometimes) works BUT it (sometimes) does not update the columns until you resize the screen a bit.
I have been been trying out these kinds of solutions and many of these too. However none of them seem to work, for example I have tried:
console.log(elt.offsetHeight);
console.log(elt.getBoundingClientRect());
Tried 'elt' being all sorts, the parent elements, the whole body/doc wrapper etc. I thought maybe this was because the element in question is hidden until you hover over the nav link. But I forced it to be open using chrome devtools and ran the same 'reflow triggering' javascript and it still made no difference?
Is there a (preferably nice and not forcing reflow of the whole document every pageload??) way to force a recalculation of the css columns?
OR is a better solution possible using css grid / any other way?
Thanks!
In case it is relevant to another possible solution, the markup is like this:
<ul class="level0 submenu">
<li class="navigation_item__back hidden-desktop">
Back
</li>
<li class="navigation_item__link hidden-desktop">
Title
</li>
<li class="level1 nav-3-1 category-item first parent">
<a href="">
<span>Sub Title</span>
</a>
<ul class="level1 submenu">
<li class="navigation_item__back hidden-desktop">
Back
</li>
<li class="navigation_item__link hidden-desktop">
Sub Title
</li>
<li class="level2 nav-3-1-1 category-item first">
<a href="/">
<span>Lorem 1psum</span>
</a>
</li>
<li class="level2 nav-3-1-2 category-item">
<a href="/">
<span>Lorem 2psum</span>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
...
</ul>
I'm working on a project that requires 2 distinct menus, one on top, and one on the left of the page:
<div class="navigation">
<ul class="navigation">
<li>FILM </li>
<li>PHOTOGRAPHY </li>
<li>OTHER WORKS </li>
<li>INFO/INQUIRE </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="navigationLeft">
<ul class="navigationLeft">
<li><a href='../item1/index.html'><span>item 1</span></a></li>
<li><a href='../item2/index.html'><span>item 2</span></a></li>
<li><a href='../item3/index.html'><span>item 3</span></a></li>
<li><a href='../item4/index.html'><span>item 4</span></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
The left one is basically a sort of sub-menu of a section in the top menu. Originally, the project was meant to be small, so I used straight CSS to highlight selected sections using class, but the website has grown so much now that I want to use templating for future updates. That means that straight CSS is now out. I've implemented the following script in my header:
<script type="text/javascript" >
$(function() {
$(".navigationLeft a").each(function() {
if (this.href == window.location) {
$(this).css("color", "#ff9900");
};
});
});
</script>
It's working for my left menu, but obviously wouldn't work for my top menu, because technically the section that I'm in isn't the "current page". I'm looking for a way using jQuery/js to parse through the url and have the highlighting applied to any link that is once up the tree. So basically, in my top menu, any <a href> that contained for example /photography/ would also be highlighted, even though it's not technically the current page. Many thanks in advance!
On my website europebathroom.com I have a horizontal main menu. When I hover over one of the menu-items a dropdown appears. When I hover over another menu-item the drop-down of that menu-item appears, as it should of course.
However, I don't want this to happen when you accidentaly quickly touch another menu-item.
I want it to be like the horizontal menu on the following link: badkamerwinkel.nl.
So, there should be a delay in the change of the dropdown by some milliseconds on hover, to avoid annoying situations if you accidentaly touch another menu-item.
Is there a script I can use to do this? I am not very experienced yet, my apologies.
Thank you so much in advance, and please know this is my first post on this great support site, so any criticism and tips are welcome to make my next posts better!

EDIT:
The menu works approximately like the menu below.
<ul class="main">
<li class="item1">
<div class="submenu1">...</div>
</li>
<li class="item2">
<div class="submenu2">...</div>
</li>
<li class="item3">
<div class="submenu3">...</div>
</li>
</ul>
.submenu1{
display:none;
}
.main .item1:hover .submenu1{
display:block;
}
.submenu2{
display:none;
}
.main .item2:hover .submenu2{
display:block;
}
So if you hover item1 the submenu1 shows, if you hover item2 the submenu2 shows immediately. Is there a way to delay this action by a few milliseconds? Thanks!
You can use JQuery hoverIntent plugin to delay the animations. I have used this to create a similar kind of behavior.

i have just encountered a very strange problem. I am working with jQuery mobile and making the mobile version for a website. There is a listing page that has its own filters. The filters are in a panel, its slides out, you select the filter, it closes and filters the list. pretty basic. Now when the same app is accessed from an iOS 7 iphone, the first time you filter something it works fine. but if you open the filter again, its blank. but the filters are still where they should be and if you just tap at the place where you think a filter should be, they appear and filter the list as nothing is wrong. it remains like this after that.
This is the anchor i use to open the panel
<a id="friendsFilterAnchor" href="#friendsFilterPanel" data-mini="true" data-role="none" data-iconpos="right" class="ui-icon ui-icon-filter frindes-filter filter-ico" data-theme="a" title="Filter"></a>
and the panel looks something like this
<div data-role="panel" id="friendsFilterPanel" data-position-fixed="true" data-position="right" data-display="overlay" data-theme="b">
<ul id="friendsFilterList" data-role="listview" data-theme="e" data-divider-theme="a">
<li data-icon="ffTick" class="selected"><a href="javascript://" >All</a></li>
<li data-icon="false">Pending</li>
<li data-icon="false">Users</li>
</ul>
</div><!-- /panel -->
Anyone seen something like this before?
The problem was the use of same ids on different pages. The previous page was also in the dom and it had the same id in it. use relative selectors, i.e get divs by searching on the same page, which is usually a good practice in javascript.
I love jQueryUI, but the Tabs widget seems to be complicating things too much (jQueryUI version 1.10.3).
I know it can load content on the fly and this is all wonderful, but I have here a very simple structure with a form and some DataTables, more or less like this:
<div id="MyContent">
<ul>
<li>Main Data</li>
<li>Additional data 1</li>
<li>Additional data 2</li>
</ul>
<div id="Form">
<form>...</form>
</div>
<div id="SubTable1">
DataTables 1 goes here
</div>
<div id="SubTable2">
DataTables 2 goes here
</div>
</div>
However, things break horribly when I apply jQueryUI Tabs to this. One reason I already know is the use of <base> tag in my code, which makes Tabs "think" I want to load my content on the fly, instead of simply hiding/showing content already there. But even using a hack to fix this, DataTables doesn't render correctly.
And frankly, I don't want to spend days trying to figure it all out to find a fix.
Instead, I would like to know if there is a way to "switch off" all the fanciness of JqueryUI Tabs, and make it just hide and show my tabs, using whatever is inside each div. Is it possible?
That would solve my problem. If I manually create some buttons and associate a click event that simply do a display: none / display: block to my divs, they work like a charm, including DataTables.
In fact, I'm considering dumping jQueryUI Tabs completely and creating the necessary code to do just that, but I would prefer to use jQueryUI Tabs, if possible.
Thanks a lot in advance!
I will admit this is a bit ham-fisted - but it works, as an example.
HTML:
<div id="MyContent">
<ul>
<li>Main Data</li>
<li>Additional data 1</li>
<li>Additional data 2</li>
</ul>
<div id="Form" class="tab active">
<form>My Form</form>
</div>
<div id="SubTable1" class="tab">
DataTables 1 goes here
</div>
<div id="SubTable2" class="tab">
DataTables 2 goes here
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.tab{display:none}
.active{display:block}
jQuery:
$('#MyContent a').on('click',function(e){
var id = $(this).attr('href')
$('div.active').toggleClass('active');
$(id).toggleClass('active', ($(this).attr('class') != 'active'));
console.log()
})
