I have a page where you can click a link that says "add a keyword" and an input will appear and you can enter the keyword, and then convert it into a span tag on blur or the "return" key. However, I've been adding onto it to allow for an "autocomplete" feature, so I'm trying to insert a
<ul></ul>
after my input in order to do a .load inside the list.
The relevant code I have is:
var addKeywordId = 0;
$('a.add_keyword').live('click', function(){
$(this).before('<input type="text" class="add_keyword" id="addKeyword'+addKeywordId+'" /><ul><li>hi</li></ul>');
$('.add_keyword').focus();
addKeywordId++;
});
The problem is, that my HTML structure ends up looking like this:
<ul><li>hi</li></ul>
<a class="add_keyword">+ add keyword</a>
<input id="addKeyword0" class="add_keyword" type="text />
INSTEAD OF
<input id="addKeyword0" class="add_keyword" type="text />
<ul><li>hi</li></ul>
<a class="add_keyword">+ add keyword</a>
Anybody know why my HTML is added out of the order I specified??
Thanks
EDIT: This seems to be working fine in Google Chrome, but not in Mozilla Firefox.. :(
This is likely due to the weird rejiggering of code Firefox does to try to display things even when there are errors. I've seen it where I miss a closing div, IE freaks out (as it should) and Firefox looks fine, as it ignores that you missed adding the ending div and guesses.
You could try a 2 stage thing. I would add an id to the ul tag, then add the input before it.
$(this).before('<ul id="ulid"><li>hi</li></ul>');
$('#ulid').before('<input type="text" class="add_keyword" id="addKeyword'+addKeywordId+'" />');
Happy haxin.

I have a div element that looks like this
<div id="test" contenteditable="true" style="height: 17px;">
</div>
When I do $("#test").html(), I'd expect to see an empty string returned, but in fact, it gives me <br>.
Why would there be a <br> even if I haven't put any there in the div?
Edit: Actually, in between the div tag, I have a Struts2 property tag which outputs a value but this value populated in the backend is empty so I was not expecting to see <br> there.
It's look like strange issue, As far my experience it can be due to these stuff
It may be html tags are not closed
You may have some browser extension which some time do these type weird stuff
so try to disable all extension and check all html tags also try in incognito mode after disable extension, I think it may help you for debugging this issue.

There is space between <div ...> and </div>.
Also spaces will be detect by HTML but only one by one. The weird thing is that you got
<br>
as output I just got nothing as in the fiddle.
Here like in my fiddle you can detect if #test is empty if not you can see the result.
$(document).ready(function() {
if ($('#test').html() !== "")
$('#console').text($('#test').html());
else
$('#console').text('empty');
});
We have to be ADA compliant on our site. One of the things they look for is every form must have a label tag. The code has a label tag in the right place, but then when the javascript loads on the page, a span tag gets between the tag and the search field making it no longer compliant. I don't see a way to add a label. I was curious if anyone else had a suggestion for this or is there an alternative to typeahead that will work? In order to be compliant it must look like
<label for="search">Search: </label>
<input type="text" name="search" id="search"/>
For example the way it works now looks like...
<label for="search">Search: </label>
<span class="twitter-typeahead">
<input type="text" name="search" id="search"/>
</span>
There is no option to change the span tag that wraps your input. You can see where it is hardcoded in the source code here. Unfortunately, typeahead is no longer maintained either, so there will not be a future option to customize this.
However, you can always modify the code yourself. Either in the www.js file that I linked to (if you compile yourself) or in the bundle, find the buildHtml() function and change that line to an empty string.
function buildHtml(c) {
return {
wrapper: '',
menu: '<div class="' + c.menu + '"></div>'
};
}
I don't know if this will have unknown repercussions elsewhere in typeahead, but I just tried it on a page and everything seemed to be working fine.
I have a simple input line and want to append whatever has been entered each time somebody pushes the OK button. Sounds simple so far, still I am unable to get it working
HTML:
<p>
<input name="todo" id="todo" type="text" value="Set Me To Value" size="32" maxlength="30" />
<p id="status">Ok</p>
<br>
JQuery:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#status').on('click', function(){
var input = $('input[name=todo]').val();
$('<br><b id="taskz">'+input+'</b> - <b id="statusz">Ok</b>').after('#status');
});
});
I also tried my luck with append or appendTo, but both times unsuccessfully.
Just in case here is the JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/NRWzE/
.after() works, but you need to set it up correctly, according to documentation it should be:
.after( content [, content ] )
So the right way is:
$("#status").after('<br><b id="taskz">'+input+'</b> - <b id="statusz">Ok</b>');
Try use jquery insertAfter:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#status').on('click', function () {
var input = $('input[name=todo]').val();
$('<br><b id="taskz">' + input + '</b> - <b id="statusz">Ok</b>').insertAfter('#status');
});
});
It looks like you meant to use:
$('#status').after('<br><b id="taskz">'+input+'</b> - <b id="statusz">Ok</b>');
(see after docs)
or, alternatively insertAfter:
$('<br><b id="taskz">'+input+'</b> - <b id="statusz">Ok</b>').insertAfter('#status');
Try this:
$('#status').click(function(){
var input = $('input[name=todo]').val();
$('#status').append('<br><b id="taskz">'+input+'</b> - <b id="statusz">Ok</b>');
});
There are a few things going on, but the big thing is that you need to research more how after, append and appendTo work. Here's the basic syntax difference in the methods that share a name but one has To on the end:
Newcontent.appendTo(existingElement) returns newElements.
existingElement.append(newContent) returns existingElement.
Additionally, after puts the new element as a sibling of the reference element, whereas append puts the new element as a child. This is an important difference.
So, try this script then:
var taskid = 1;
$('#valueform').on('submit', function(){
var input = $('#todo').val();
$('<br><span id="task' + taskid.toString() + '">' + input
+ '</span> - <span id="status' + taskid.toString()
+ '">Ok</span>').appendTo('#status');
taskid += 1;
$('#todo').focus().select();
return false;
});
$('#todo').focus().select();
See a Live Demo at JSFiddle
Here's the supporting HTML:
<form id="valueform">
<input name="todo" id="todo" type="text" value="Set Me To Value" size="32" maxlength="30" />
<input type="submit" value="OK" id="okbutton">
</form>
<p id="status"></p>
There are some other concerns:
I recommend you study which HTML elements are allowed within which HTML elements.
Instead of putting a <b> tag on each item, use CSS. Additionally, if there is semantic importance for the bolding, then use <strong> instead. <b> also should probably not take an id because it is a presentation tag, not a content tag. When thinking of presentation vs. semantics, one must consider screen readers or browsers that cannot render bold text--in that case, <strong> will allow them to emphasize the text in another way if needed.
Get familiar with the jQuery documentation. Careful reading of what exactly each function does, the object it works on, the parameters expected, and the values returned will enable you to get past barriers in the future without having to ask here.
It looked to me like you wanted to put the new content inside of the #status paragraph, not after it. So I wrote my script that way. If you put it after the way you wrote it, then the most recent status will be on top--but then you have non block-level content (starting with your <br>) outside of any block-level element. So you should be appending <p> elements, or you should put your content inside the existing <p>.
Note: I added a form and made the button type submit instead of button to get easy Enter-key handling. It doesn't have to be this way.
I'm selecting a <div>, like so:
var html = $('div#mydiv').html();
Both in console, and in the DOM when I paste the html var back in, there are two elements missing from the beginning of the div, which is structured like so:
<div id="mydiv">
<input type="checkbox" />
<label for="input"></label>
<div class="notes"></div>
...
</div>
I'm only getting from the 'notes' div on down - NOT the input or label. It's the weirdest thing. Any ideas?
EDIT: By 'ideas', I mean - yes, I know this should work just fine. I'm wondering what bugs could be causing the weirdness. There is some PHP laced into the input and label - but those output just fine in the div where they originate, but do NOT show up in the console or in the div where I'm setting the html via jQuery. I'm looking to see if there's malformed HTML, but I don't think so.
Have a look at this link.
The menu to the left is not clickable in chrome (When you open in new tab, it works fine), but works fine in Mozilla.
Please let me know if you have any thoughts on how to correct this.
Your menu not using Javascript to detect click events it is anchor tag. You will notice that in a webkit browser hovering over the link does not provide a pointer cursor.
Eg:
<a style="background-color:red;" href="/stores/unwrapindia/products/1/Artisan/2/Happily-Unmarried/65/New-Year/78/Promotions-">
<div class="fillDIV">
<input type="checkbox" name="attribute_value_44" value="44" class="CheckBoxClass" id="CheckBox1">
<label class="LabelSelected" for="CheckBox1" id="Label1">Chandigarh</label>
</div>
</a>
The problem could that the input is conflicting with the anchor tag in regards to the click event, because webkit is a bit confused about the div inside the anchor or you need to clean up your ID's. I do not see the reason for your using of the input and label, so at least test it with just the anchor.
The label elements within your links have a for attribute (which refer to hidden checkboxes). Something like:
<input type="checkbox" id="cb1" />
<label for="cb1">mooooo</label>
The link does not work once you set that attribute.
To fix your problem, simply remove the attribute - it does not benefit you anyway (having the checkbox checked is not helpful as you are navigating away from the page).
Here is an example.
My solution is add inline javascript code to tag A
onclick="document.location.href=this.getAttribute('href');"
Note
In html specification, an A element is not allowed to contain a DIV element, you can refer to
