JQuery Sync 2 Checkboxes - javascript

I am using the following code to sync 2 input boxes.
$("#input_box_1").bind("keyup paste", function() {
$("#input_box_2").val($(this).val());
});
The above works great but I need to do the same for a checkbox.
My question is...how do I modify the code for it to work with a checkbox?

You need to modify the checked property according to the value of that property on the first checkbox whenever the first checkbox changes (so we bind to the change event):
$("#checkbox1").change(function() {
$("#checkbox2").prop("checked", this.checked);
});
Note that you don't need to pass this into jQuery, you can just access the property of the raw DOM element, which is faster.

Try something like:
$("#input_box_1").on("change", function() {
$("#input_box_2").prop('checked', $(this).prop('checked'));
});

Use attr('checked') instead of val()
$("#input_box_1").bind("keyup paste", function() {
$("#input_box_2").attr('checked', $(this).attr('checked'));
});

jQuery "Chosen" on-filter event?

I want to run a function whenever the search input box is changed in chosen (jquery dropdown plugin).
But unable to find such event neither in their documentation nor on the net. Does anyone have experienced or have idea how to call some code whenever search is done in Chosen?
I tried placing the jquery .on('change' event on the textbox but it didn't work.
I wrote
$(".chosen-search input").on("change", function(e) {
//console.log($(this));
});
I had to "double" wrap the on to get the input event to fire on the Chosen text field search box:
$('#my-chosen-input').on('chosen:showing_dropdown', function() {
$('.chosen-search input').on('input', function() {
// The text has changed, do something...
});
});
$(".chosen-search").change(function(){
console.log("changinn");
});
This should work
Chosen js filters dropdown list onkeyup event. This snippet would work better:
$(document).on('keyup', '.chosen-search input', function() {
console.log('filtered');
})

Fire an event only when an focused element looses focus

This is my Fiddle JsFiddle
$(function() {
$('.glyphicon-edit').click(function () {
$(this).parent().find('.form-control').removeAttr("readonly").focus();
});
$('.form-control:focus').blur(function() {
$(this).addAttr("readonly");
});
});
What I am trying to do?
I am trying to create a dynamically editable form.It should have
When someone click on edit icon, the corresponding Input field should get focussed and become editable. (I completed this part).
Next i want is when an element is in focus state and it looses focus then i want to add readonly attribute again to that element. This part in not working. can somebody explain me why. and give a solution for it
EDIT:
In the later part i was trying alert("some msg") to check whether the event is getting fired or not. while posting i just replaced it with addAttr. it was a typo
You could use instead:
--DEMO--
$(function () {
$('.glyphicon-edit').click(function () {
$(this).parent().find('.form-control').prop("readonly", false).focus().one('blur', function () {
$(this).prop('readonly', true);
});
});
});
There is no addAttr() function. The setter for attr looks like this:
$('.form-control').blur(function() {
$(this).attr("readonly", true);
});
Also, the :focus psuedo selector here is redundant, as to fire the blur event the element has to have focus in the first place.

Javascript OnChange for Checkbox

I have 5 checkboxes and 1 textarea in my form and would like to just hook OnChange() for all of these. However, for whatever reason nothing I have found on Stack Overflow seems to be getting called.
As this is the most basic example I found, what is wrong with this?
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
$("input").on("input", function()
{
alert("CHANGED");
});
}
</script>
you should handle change event:
$('input:checkbox,textarea').change(function () {
alert('changed');
});
The oninput event is only triggered when the text of an input changes, so it won't be fired for checkboxes. Try binding to the change event for checkboxes and the input event on textareas:
$("textarea").on("input", yourFunction);
$("input:checkbox").on("change", yourFunction);
function yourFunction() {
alert("CHANGED");
}
jsFiddle which demonstrates the above.
Note: The difference in this answer is the alert is triggered immediately in the textarea, not only on blur of the element.
Additional Note: The oninput event isn't supported in < IE9
Why you bind input event for checkbox, it's only fire for textarea?
You need to bind change event :
Try this one:
Updated
$(document).ready(function()
{
$("textarea").on("input", function(){
alert("CHANGED");
});
$("input").on("change", function(){
alert("CHANGED");
});
});
Try in fiddle
Checkboxes usually used with same name property so in selector name property will be usefull
$("input[name='interests']").change(function(){
/*some code*/
});
It will not work on textarea . you can assign all radio button and textarea a same class and then
$(".your_class_name").on("change", function()
{
alert("CHANGED");
});

Input:Checked jQuery vs CSS?

Unless I am mistaken. jQuery and CSS handle the :checked selector very differently. In CSS when I use :checked, styles are applied appropriately as I click around, but in jQuery it only seems to recognize what was originally in the DOM on page-load. Am I missing something?
Here is my Fiddle
In jQuery:
$('input:checked').click(function () {
$('input:checked').css('background','#FF0000');
$('input:checked+label').css('background','#ff0000');
});
In CSS:
input:checked+label {font-weight:bold;color:#5EAF1E}
UPDATE:
I should clarify that what I am looking to do is trigger behavior if a user clicks an already selected radio button.
Try setting up the handler this way:
$('body').on('click', 'input:checked', function() {
// ...
});
The way you have it, you're finding all the elements that are checked when that code runs. The above uses event bubbling so that the test is made when each "click" happens.
Inside your handler, you're updating the style for all checked elements, even though any particular click will only change one. That's not a huge deal if the number of checkboxes isn't too big.
edit — some further thought, and a helpful followup question, makes me realize that inside an event handler for a radio button "click" event, the button will always be ":checked". The value of the "checked" property is updated by the browser before the event is dispatched. (That'll be reversed if the default action of the event is prevented.)
I think it'll be necessary to add a class or use .data() to keep track of a shadow for the "checked" property. When a button is clicked, you'd see if your own flag is set; if so, that means the button was set before being clicked. If not, you set the flag. You'll also want to clear the flag of all like-named radio buttons.
You bound the event only to the inputs that were initially checked. Remove :checked from the first selector and it works as intended (but ugly.)
http://jsfiddle.net/8rDXd/19/
$('input').click(function () {
$('input:checked').css('background','#FF0000');
$('input:checked+label').css('background','#ff0000');
});
you would of course need to "undo" the css change you made with jQuery to make it go away when the input is unchecked.
$('input').click(function () {
$('input').css('background','').filter(":checked").css('background','#FF0000');
$('input+label').css('background','');
$('input:checked+label').css('background','#ff0000');
});
http://jsfiddle.net/8rDXd/20/
AFTER UPDATE
Keep track of the status of the radio buttons. For example, use .data() to keep an in-memory state of the radio buttons.
$(function () {
var $radio = $(":radio");
$radio.filter(":checked").data("checked", true);
$radio.on("click", function () {
if ($(this).data("checked")) {
alert("Already selected");
}
$radio.data("checked", false).filter(":checked").data("checked", true);
});
});

BEFORE UPDATE
I think you want to use .change() here.
$('input:radio').change(function () {
$('input, input+label').css('background', '');
$('input:checked, input:checked+label').css('background', '#f00');
}).change();

jQuery .on('change', function() {} not triggering for dynamically created inputs

The problem is that I have some dynamically created sets of input tags and I also have a function that is meant to trigger any time an input value is changed.
$('input').on('change', function() {
// Does some stuff and logs the event to the console
});
However the .on('change') is not triggering for any dynamically created inputs, only for items that were present when the page was loaded. Unfortunately this leaves me in a bit of a bind as .on is meant to be the replacement for .live() and .delegate() all of which are wrappers for .bind() :/
Has anyone else had this problem or know of a solution?
You should provide a selector to the on function:
$(document).on('change', 'input', function() {
// Does some stuff and logs the event to the console
});
In that case, it will work as you expected. Also, it is better to specify some element instead of document.
Read this article for better understanding: http://elijahmanor.com/differences-between-jquery-bind-vs-live-vs-delegate-vs-on/
You can use any one of several approaches:
$("#Input_Id").change(function(){ // 1st way
// do your code here
// Use this when your element is already rendered
});
$("#Input_Id").on('change', function(){ // 2nd way
// do your code here
// This will specifically call onChange of your element
});
$("body").on('change', '#Input_Id', function(){ // 3rd way
// do your code here
// It will filter the element "Input_Id" from the "body" and apply "onChange effect" on it
});
Use this
$('body').on('change', '#id', function() {
// Action goes here.
});
Just to clarify some potential confusion.
This only works when an element is present on DOM load:
$("#target").change(function(){
//does some stuff;
});
When an element is dynamically loaded in later you can use:
$(".parent-element").on('change', '#target', function(){
//does some stuff;
});
$("#id").change(function(){
//does some stuff;
});
you can use:
$('body').ready(function(){
$(document).on('change', '#elemID', function(){
// do something
});
});
It works with me.
You can use 'input' event, that occurs when an element gets user input.
$(document).on('input', '#input_id', function() {
// this will fire all possible change actions
});
documentation from w3
$(document).on('change', '#id', aFunc);
function aFunc() {
// code here...
}
