When I dblclick, it runs .click twice - javascript

I have 2 functions when you click on an item, .click and .dblclick
The problem is, that when you dblclick, it runs the .click function twice.
Is there a way to fix this?
$(".item").click(function() {
if (price[this.id] === 1) {
consoleUpdate("This item is worth " +price[this.id]+ " coin");
}
}
$("#fishItem").unbind("dblclick").bind("dblclick").dblclick(function() {
coins = coins+1;
coinUpdate();
invFish1--;
if (invFish1 === 0) {
$("#fishItem").appendTo("#itemStage");
}
});

Per the jQuery documentation for the dblclick event:
It is inadvisable to bind handlers to both the click and dblclick
events for the same element. The sequence of events triggered varies
from browser to browser, with some receiving two click events before
the dblclick and others only one. Double-click sensitivity (maximum
time between clicks that is detected as a double click) can vary by
operating system and browser, and is often user-configurable.
You want to change your events so that you don't have a .click and .dblclick on the same element.
http://api.jquery.com/dblclick/

var cnt=1;
$( "#target" ).click(function(e) {
if(cnt==1)
{
// action on single click if you dont want anything in in single click then use here
e.preventDefault();
}else{
// work on double click
cnt=1;// again set counter
}
cnt++;
});
reference e.preventDefault();

As others mentioned, you can't really bind both click and double click to the same item. There are, however, workarounds.
One way to handle this would be to handle the click code and then check for double-click:
var lastClickTime = 0;
$(".item").click(function() {
var thisClickTime = (new Date).getTime();
if (thisClickTime - lastClickTime < 500) {
//Double-click
}
else {
//Click
}
lastClickTime = thisClickTime;
});
This code essentially captures a "last click time" and if this click time is less than 500 milliseconds from the last click time, then it fires the double-click code. Otherwise it will fire the click code.
The downside with this is that the click-code will be called first and then the double-click code. Also, you're forcing your users into a 500ms double-click. While this is pretty standard, it's not guaranteed. (Slower clickers may have trouble with this.)
A JSFiddle that demonstrates this technique.
You could improve this code by setting a 500ms timeout for the click code and then cancelling the click event if a double-click is fired. The downside with this is that it will force a 500 ms delay between the click and the "click" code.
A JSFiddle that demonstrates the timeout.

If you don't mind handling one single-click, look at the event object details attribute. It is the number of clicks.
$(".item").click(function(event) {
if (event.details === 1) {
//handle single click
} else if (event.details === 2) {
// handle double click
}
}

Stop Click callback when double clicked on node in Fancytree

I want to the control to not go into Click callback when Double click on the node in fancytree
This is standard browser behavior, Fancytree does not do anything special about the click events.
However: from jQuery help (http://api.jquery.com/dblclick/):
It is inadvisable to bind handlers to both the click and dblclick events for the same element. The sequence of events triggered varies from browser to browser, with some receiving two click events before the dblclick and others only one. Double-click sensitivity (maximum time between clicks that is detected as a double click) can vary by operating system and browser, and is often user-configurable.

You're giving very little to work with, so I'll give you a general double click implementation example.
HTML
<input type="button" id="yourControl">
JS
var waitingForSecondClick = false;
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#yourControl').click(function() {
if (waitingForSecondClick) {
waitingForSecondClick = false;
onDoubleClick();
} else {
waitingForSecondClick = true;
setTimeout(function() { waitingForSecondClick = false}, 300);
}
return false;
});
function onDoubleClick() {
alert('Double clicked!');
}
});

Fire event with right mouse click and Paste

I want to fire an event in a textarea immediately after paste some text inside the textarea. I can do that when Shift+Ins is used; however, I cannot do it when right mouse button and then paste (from the drop down menu) is chosen. Keyup fires after Shift+Ins. None of the rest fires when Paste is chosen after right mouse button clicking... What do I have to do?
<textarea name="message" id="message"></textarea>
$("#message").on('keyup contextmenu', function(event) {
alert("ok");
});
http://jsfiddle.net/f29vuwoL/7/
Thank you
Most browsers support the input event, which is fired when something is pasted or otherwise added, regardless of how:
$("#message").on('keyup contextmenu input', function(event) {
alert("ok");
});
Updated Fiddle
Note that using input is the most general method, firing when the control gets input regardless of how, and so if you hook multiple events (as above), you'll get multiple calls for the same input. For instance, if you hook both keyup and input, on browsers that support input, you'll get two calls. Similarly for paste and input when the user pastes, on browsers that support both.
If you need to support browsers that don't have either input or paste, I'm afraid the unfortunate answer is that you need to poll. Still, polling every (say) 250ms isn't asking the browser to do that much work, and you can feature-detect whether it's necessary:
var message = $("#message");
var events = null;
var previous;
if ('oninput' in message[0]) {
// Browser supports input event
events = "input";
} else if ('onpaste' in message[0]) {
// Browser supports paste event
events = "paste keyup contextmenu";
}
if (!events) {
// Ugh, poll and fire our own
events = "pseudoinput";
previous = message.val();
setInterval(function() {
var current = message.val();
if (current != previous) {
previous = current;
message.trigger(events);
}
}, 250);
}
console.log("Using: " + events);
message.on(events, function(e) {
console.log("Got event: " + e.type);
});
Updated Fiddle
You should use input event callback. See the demo here
You can use the dedicated paste event:
$("#message").on('paste', function(event) {
alert("ok");
});
Updated jsFiddle
However you might want to check browser support - I don't think jQuery normalizes this event.
If you need IE support, it might be a little more difficult, but it depends on your requirements - does it absolutely need to be a paste action? If not, TJ Crowder's answer is the way to go.
The on input is useful if you want to detect when the contents of a textarea, input:text, input:password or input:search element have changed, because the onchange event on these elements fires when the element loses focus, not immediately after the modification.The oninput event is supported in Internet Explorer from version 9.
$("#message").on('input propertychange', function() {
console.log($(this).val());
});

Simulate div click multiple times

I've got slider in template glitching, and code is minimized. So, got tired of looking for the cause of the problem and decided to use a quick hack.
I need to fire a div click multiple times.
I've used this piece of code to trigger a click
$('.control-prev').trigger('click');
Works fine for one time click.
Now, how do i make it click multiple times?
http://jsfiddle.net/br4Lmyso/ (warning: creates three alerts, just to quickly show it works)
// set your count to whatever you want. Get a reference to the div
// so you're not querying the DOM everytime.
var triggerCount = 3;
var triggerDiv = $('.control-prev');
// loop!
for(var i = 0; i < triggerCount; i++) {
triggerDiv.trigger('click');
}
To be clear, trigger(...) does not simulate the click behavior and there is no way you can simulate the click behavior. What it does is to call the function that handle given event. These two are total different. For example:
$('#test').click(function() {
console.log("Clicked");
});
$('#test').dblclick(function() {
console.log("Double Click");
});
$('#test').trigger('click');
$('#test').trigger('click');
Despite of rapidly trigger two clicks, the double click will not trigger.

Display DIV only if user has been Idle for X amount of time

I would like to display a helpful DIV that basically shows the user how to accomplish something on a particular page, but only if the user has been idle for a period of time, say, 30seconds.
What I mean by "Idle" is:
Not clicking any links
Not right clicking anywhere
Exceptions:
I would like to exclude the following conditions from the Is User Idle rule:
User has scrolled up or down/left or right
User has pressed mouse button on an empty area on the site/ or on an element which has no source/link for example, an image with no hyperlink.
and, Pressing keyboard buttons
Can this be done? Or can we only detect when a particullar event occurs?
Any thoughts/suggestions/resources will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
fairly basic...
var trigger = 30000
$.(function(){
setInterval('displayInf()',trigger );
$('body').bind('click dblclick keypress mousemove scroll', function(){
clearDisplayInf();
});
});
function displayInf()
{
$('body').append('<div>Your notification div</div>');
}
function clearDisplayInf()
{
trigger = clearInterval(trigger);
trigger = setInterval('displayInf()', 30000 );
}
that should do the trick - you could add some script to make the div removable and start the timer again once its removed but that just polishing up really..
Event in DOM would bubble from leaf to root, thus add a event listener on document would make sense.
But since we are possibiliy stop bubbling for click event in certain element, register click event on document may not work perfectly, in that case, register mousedown and mouseup event would help:
var timer; // create a timer at first
// restart timer on click
function startIdle() {
timer = setTimeout(function() { /* show div */ }, time);
}
if (document.addEventListener) {
document.addEventListener('mouseup', startIdle, false);
}
else {
document.attachEvent('onmouseup', startIdle);
}
// start the first timer
startIdle();

Action on blur except when specific element clicked with jQuery

There are two elements in play:
$('#myInput') // an input field for search
$('#myList') // a list to display search results
I want to hide the list when the input no longer has focus, like so:
$('#myInput').blur(function() {
$('#myList').hide();
});
This works great, except when a list item is clicked, because the blur event fires and hides the list before the click is registered. The goal is for the list to stay visible when any part of the list is clicked, even though this will cause the input to blur.
How can I do this? Thanks!
You can accomplish this by keeping a global variable, and setTimouts, to wait a delay of 200ms and then check if one of the 2 elements have focus.
var keepFocus = false;
function hideList(){
if(!keepFocus){
$('#myList').hide();
}
}
$('#myInput').blur(function() {
keepFocus = false;
window.setTimeout(hideList, 200);
}).focus(function(){
keepFocus = true;
});
$('#myList').blur(function() {
keepFocus = false;
window.setTimeout(hideList, 200);
}).focus(function(){
keepFocus = true;
});
I've faced with the exact same problem, so this is how I solved it.
I came up with the fact that blur() fires earlier than click().
So I've tried to change click() to mousedown() and found out that mousedown() fires before blur().
And to imitate click() you'll have to fire mousedown() and then mouseup()
So in your case I would do something like this:
var click_in_process = false; // global
$('#myList').mousedown(function() {
click_in_process = true;
});
$('#myList').mouseup(function() {
click_in_process = false;
$('#myInput').focus();
// a code of $('#myList') clicking event
});
$('#myInput').blur(function() {
if(!click_in_process) {
$('#myList').hide();
// a code of what you want to happen after you really left $('#myInput')
}
});
Demo / example: http://jsfiddle.net/bbrh4/
Hope it helps!
You need to be able to say "do this blur() unless the list gains focus at the same time".
This question says how to detect if an element has focus: Using jQuery to test if an input has focus
Then all you need to do is:
$("#myInput").blur(function () {
if (!$("#myList").is(":focus")) {
$("#myList").hide();
}
});
Pigalev Pavel's answer above works great.
However, If you want an even simplier solution, you can just "prevent default" in the "mousedown" of an element to prevent the blur event from taking place. (since preventing default actually means that in the end, the input never looses focus in the first place!)
Of course, this is only if you're alright with preventing default in the div. It does have some side-effects, like the text is no longer selectable. As long as that's not an issue, this will work.
I suppose if you hold the mouse down over the div, move the mouse outside of the div, and then release the mouse, it also doesn't fire the "blur" event. But in my case, I wasn't too worried about that either, since the click started in the target div.
$("input").focus(function(){
$(this).val("");
});
$("input").blur(function(){
$(this).val("blur event fired!");
});
$("div").mousedown(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
})
div{
height: 200px;
width: 200px;
background: blue;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input>
<div>
Click here to prevent blur event!
</div>
The best way to do this is to attach an event handler to the body element, then another handler to the list that stops event propagation:
$(body).click(function () {
$("#myList").hide();
});
$("#myList").click(function (e) {
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
});
This listens for a click outside of #myInput and hides #myList. At the same time, the second function listens for a click on #myList and if it occurs, it prevents the hide() from firing.
