I am building my website with inspecting elements option to inspect each elements separately like firebug. I like to built the styles like newer version of Firefox which will blur all the elements except the selected element. Any idea on how to do this? The example of the needed output is given below.
EDIT : Please note that, here the element i need to select may have lower DOM hierarchy than the other elements. For eg. i may need to gray out the body container and if i select some internal elements which should not have the grey effect.
Something like this:
http://jsfiddle.net/lollero/T7PyK/
Clicking any element will show overlay and isolate the element.
Clicking overlay will undo that.
JS:
$('*').on("click", function( e ) {
e.stopPropagation();
var self = $(this),
overlay = $('#overlay');
if ( !self.hasClass('active') ) {
if ( self.is(':not(#overlay)') ) {
self.addClass('active');
}
overlay.fadeTo(400, 0.7);
}
if ( self.hasClass('active') ) {
overlay.on("click", function() {
overlay.fadeOut(400, function() {
self.removeClass('active');
});
});
}
});
CSS:
#overlay {
display: none;
background: #000;
position: fixed;
z-index: 100;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
.active {
position: relative !important;
z-index: 101 !important;
background: #fff;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 50px #111;
}
HTML:
<div id="overlay"></div>
Put a div with a background color of black, 100% width/height, absolute positioning and left/top of 0, and an opacity of somewhere between 0 and 1 (eg. 0.5). That gives you the "gray out the page effect".
Then, put the text that you don't want grayed out in a separate div that's higher in the DOM hierarchy (or at the same level but with a higher z-index), so that it won't get covered up by your graying-out div.
You can use jQuery overlay effect along with some CSS..

Update: Fixed and working. Thanks everyone for the help.
Hello I'm making a javascript/jQuery button that when its clicked, a Div appears (display: inline-block), and when its clicked again the Div goes back to display: none. Ideally I would want to animate the movement, but I really just want to get it working first.
My button...
<button> Menu Test </button>
My function (updated)...
<script>
$("button").click(function(){
$("#flexMenu").toggle("slow", function() {
});
});
</script>
The CSS for flexMenu...
#flexMenu {
/* display: inline-block;*/
position: fixed;
float: left;
background: #1f1f1f;
margin: 3.9em 0 0 0;
padding: .25em;
width: 15%;
height: 6em;
border: 2px solid #fff;
z-index: 100;
}
I'm really just to sure how to grab the display property of the ID and change it. I've done a hover function before using CSS ease-out to make divs grow in size when hovered and change class by using $(this).toggleClass(nameOfClass), but I have never tried just changing an element. The other questions like this didn't really fit just changing the display value. Thanks for any help.
you should use jquery :
$("button").click(function(){
$("#flexMenu").toggle();
});
Updated with the jQuery .on() method which allows you to bind specific events to that button (event listeners).
$("button").on('click', function () {
$('#flexMenu').toggle("slow");
});
Fiddle
I have a strange problem though, when i click the content with z-index 20, the thing with z-index 1 gets selected in my phone.
The image has both the screen shot - the part on the right side of the image is only for illustrating my problem, as such the white gray div is behind my content div.
Can someone please rescue.

<div class="demo-social">

<li>Uses of Inheritence?</li>
...
</div>
</div>
<div id="content" class="snap-content">
my content goes here
</div>
</div>
</body>
Surely because "Uses of inheritance" is the only link element (other than "What is java"), it will be selected - there's nothing else to select!
Try setting the display of that element to "none" when it is hidden.
You could try to hook into the event when clicking / dragging on the content panel and do an event.stopPropagation(); or an event.preventDefault(); when the panel is closed.
As far as i know, you can see that coz Snap.js add's corresponding classes like (class="snapjs-right" or class="snapjs-left") to the body in order to indicate if a panel is open or not.
So first you've got to check that.
With jQuery it would look something like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#UsesofInheritence_Anchor_ID").bind("click", function() {
if (!($('body').hasClass("snapjs-right"))){
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
}
});
});
I'm trying to scroll an hidden element before I show it. This is the code i'm working with:
<div class="main">
<div class="bg">
</div>
</div>
.main {
display:none;
position:abolsute;
width:250px;height:250px;
overflow:scroll;
}
.bg {
background: blue url(http://defaulttester.com/img/bg-landing-mario.jpg);
width:1200px;
height:800px;
}
$(".main").scrollTop($(".bg").height()/2);
$(".main").scrollLeft($(".bg").width()/2);
IT works fine if its showing but if its display:hidden it will simple not work. Is there anyway to avoid this and make it work?
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/dpjzJ/
Use visibility: hidden; or some class like this instead:
.hide {
position: absolute !important;
top: -9999px !important;
left: -9999px !important;
}
Or this (from Boilerplate):
.visuallyhidden {
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;
clip: rect(0 0 0 0);
height: 1px; width: 1px;
margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0;
}
Something with display: none; has no location on the page, as you probably knew.
Check out this article on the subject.
If your goal is to just set scrollLeft and scrollTop to 0(since that was my goal), one very hacky solution is to follow these steps:
Get a reference to the element you want to reset.
Get a reference to the element's parent.
Remove the element from the parent.
Append the element back to the parent.
scrollTop and scrollLeft will now be set back to 0 even though they are invisible.
function resetScroll(element) {
element.parentElement.replaceChild(element,element)
}
This will set both scrollTop and scrollLeft to 0 even if display none.
Example use:
resetScroll(document.getElementById("my_scroll"))
It's not ideal, but the way I solved this is to add a one-time IntersectionObserver that triggers the first time the element becomes visible. Here's a function to add a callback for when an element first becomes visible:
function onVisible(element, callback) {
new IntersectionObserver((entries, observer) => {
entries.forEach(entry => {
if(entry.intersectionRatio > 0) {
callback(element);
observer.disconnect();
}
});
}).observe(element);
}
And use it like this:
let myElement = document.querySelector("#myElement");
// When the element first becomes visible, scroll it to 500px:
onVisible(myElement, el=>el.scrollTop=500);

Sorry for the unclear title, I can't formulate a better concise explanation.
I have a list, and within each list item is a link which opens an othersiwse hidden <div> using the following jQuery:
$('a.showreranks').click(function () {
$('body').append('<div class="overlay"></div>');
$('#rerank_details').slideToggle(300);
return false;
});
rerank_details being the id of the div and showreranks being the class of all the links.
This is the CSS of the div:
#rerank_details {
display: none;
background: white;
position: absolute;
border: 1px solid black;
border-radius: 6px;
width: 305px;
padding: 15px;
overflow: hidden;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
height: 200x;
text-shadow: none;
z-index: 50;
}
So, you see, the opened div is centered when it's opened. It is then populated with info relating to the list item that was clicked but you don't need to worry about that. What I need help with is the following - I don't want the div to be centered on the screen. Instead I'd like it to be positioned right below the link that was clicked. Note that there could be a lot of links on the page, one below the other and the vertical distances could be irregular. How do I accomplish this?
I think that this is what you are trying to do:
http://jsfiddle.net/SO_AMK/r7ZDm/
The answer has already been accepted, but perhaps this is a cleaner version. The animations are all fixed.
if it doesn't have to be within the normal flow of the DOM just use absolute positioning and the event object.
function(event){
var box = //get a handle to box
box.style.position = 'aboslute';
box.style.left = event.page.x;
box.style.top = event.page.y;
}
I'm defining a javascript "object" via the following function:
function Window(vars) {
this.div = $("<div/>", {
id: vars.id,
class: vars.styles + " box text",
css: {
top: vars.top,
left: vars.left
}
});
this.div.appendTo( $("body") );
// more stuff happens..
As you can see, the Window has a div property, which is a jQuery object. In it's instantiation, I declare the CSS classes box and text. text is not important, it's just font stuff. Here's the CSS for box, however.
.box {
z-index: 1;
position: absolute;
background: #222222;
min-width: 10%;
text-align: center;
padding: 5px;
}
.nav-extension {
z-index: 3;
padding: 8px;
background: #000000;
position: absolute;
-moz-border-radius-bottomright: 5px;
-moz-border-radius-topright: 5px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;
border-top-right-radius: 5px;
}
box is absolute at z-index 1, and another div with nav-extension is somewhere else on the page, also absolute and at z-index 3. However, when I add the Window object to my page, it appears above anything with nav-extension. All other CSS attribues, like background, still work.
I've tried altering the z-index where I instantiate the div in the "css" section I'm already using, but that didn't work either. What gives?
Edit
Also, I've inspected both the div with box and the one with nav-extension with Firefox, and the "Style" tab indicates they still have their intended z-index (not overridden).
#2: Changed vars.class to vars.styles.
Could you give us some DOM, please? It appears that that your box and the nav-extension-div are in different contexts. A non-static position sets up a new context, relatively to which all z-indexes inside are processed. A simple fiddle to demonstrate: http://jsfiddle.net/3KTyz/
<body>
<style>
.box { z-index:1; }
.nav-extension { z-index:3; }
</style>
...
<div id="context" style="position:relative"><!-- or absolute or fixed -->
...
<div class="nav-extension"><!--
will be positioned +3 relatively to other elements in #context
-->...</div>
</div>
<div class="box"><!--
will be above #context, which has (implicit) z-index:0
-->...</div>
</body>
To make nav-extension appear above the box, you will either
set #context (or one of its parents) to a z-index higher than the one of box or
move the nav-extension-div outside any context
class is a reserved word in JavaScript and cannot be used as a property or a variable name, maybe this is the culprit.
