My problem is that the DELETE ITEM (Item which has been added dynamically) is not deleteing by click in IE6.
javascript:
var TDCount = 3;
var i=0;
function insertTD(){
var possition=document.getElementById('elmnt_pos').value;
if(possition=="")
{
possition='a';
alert('Enter a number!!!');
}
if(isNaN(possition))
{
alert('Enter a number!!!');
document.getElementById('elmnt_pos').value='';
}else{
var newTD = document.createElement("li");
var newid='li'+TDCount++;
newTD.setAttribute("id", newid);
newTD.setAttribute("onclick","javascript:removenode(this);" );
var newText = document.createTextNode(i+"New fruit " + (possition++));
newTD.appendChild(newText);
var trElm = document.getElementById("menu");
var refTD = trElm.getElementsByTagName("li").item(possition-2);
trElm.insertBefore(newTD,refTD);
i++;
}
}
function removenode(th)
{
answer = confirm("Do you really want to Remove Element "+th.id + " ? ")
if (answer !=0)
{
document.getElementById('menu').removeChild(document.getElementById(th.id));
}
}
html
<ul id="menu">
<li id="li0" onclick="javascript:removenode(this);">apple</li>
<li id="li1" onclick="javascript:removenode(this);">Banana</li>
<li id="li2" onclick="javascript:removenode(this);">Jackfruit</li>
</ul>
<form name="justfrm">
<input type="text" value="Enter the position" name="pos1" id="elmnt_pos" />
<input type="button" value="click" onclick="javascript:insertTD()"/>
</form>
"Enter the position" means add element on a specific position like 2,3,5 etc.
We can Delete Item by click on item .
I don't have an instance on Internet Explorer 6 to test with, but more than likely it's this line, which is causing the problem:
newTD.setAttribute("onclick","javascript:removenode(this);" );
It does not work in Internet Explorer 6. You will need to do something like:
newTD.onclick = function() { removeNode(this); };
or
newTD.onclick = new Function("removenode(this)");
See this article for more information. Also, as a side note you may want to look into using a library like jQuery, which already handles these types of cross-browser issues.

The function does not seem to delete the Node containing the specified value unless it is first value (in this case 'apples'). The for loop also has to execute twice before deletion of any kind. Why is that so?
function removeSpec()
{
var query = document.getElementById('spec').value; /* Value inputted by user */
elements = document.getElementsByClassName('fruit'); /* Get the li elements in the list */
var myList = document.getElementById("myList3"); /* Var to reference the list */
var length = (document.getElementsByClassName('fruit').length); /* # of li elements */
var checker = 'false'; /* boolean-ish value to determine if value was found */
for(var counter = 0; counter < length; counter ++)
{
if (elements[counter].textContent == query )
{
alert("Counter : " + counter);
myList.removeChild(myList.childNodes[ (counter) ]);
checker="true";
}
}
if ( checker == "false")
{
alert("Not Found");
}
}
The corresponding HTML:
<ul id="myList3">
<li class="fruit" >Apples</li>
<li class="fruit" >Oranges</li>
<li class="fruit" >Banannas</li>
<li class="fruit">Strawberry</li>
</ul>
<form>
Value: <input type="text" name="" value="" id="spec">
<br><br>
</form>
<button type="button" style="height:20px;width:200px" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="removeSpec()" >
Remove Specified
</button>
childNodes returns a list of all child nodes. That includes text nodes. Between every <li> element you have a text node that contains spaces and a line break. So, childNodes returns a list of 9 nodes, but you are assuming list of 4 nodes (document.getElementsByClassName('fruit').length).
You could use .children instead of .childNodes. .children returns a list of only element nodes. Or better yet, use elements, since that's what you are iterating over.
You also need to stop iterating after you found an removed a node, otherwise you will be trying to access a position that doesn't exist anymore.
function removeSpec()
{
var query = document.getElementById('spec').value; /* Value inputted by user */
elements = document.getElementsByClassName('fruit'); /* Get the li elements in the list */
var myList = document.getElementById("myList3"); /* Var to reference the list */
var length = (document.getElementsByClassName('fruit').length); /* # of li elements */
var checker = 'false'; /* boolean-ish value to determine if value was found */
for(var counter = 0; counter < length; counter ++)
{
if (elements[counter].textContent == query )
{
myList.removeChild(myList.children[ (counter) ]);
// better: myList.removeChild(elements[counter]);
checker="true";
break;
}
}
if ( checker == "false")
{
alert("Not Found");
}
}
<ul id="myList3">
<li class="fruit" >Apples</li>
<li class="fruit" >Oranges</li>
<li class="fruit" >Banannas</li>
<li class="fruit">Strawberry</li>
</ul>
<form>
Value: <input type="text" name="" value="" id="spec">
<br><br>
</form>
<button type="button" style="height:20px;width:200px" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="removeSpec()" >
Remove Specified
</button>
There are other things that could be improved (e.g. why not assign an actual boolean value to checker?), but they are not related to your question.
I run this code. you should add this line
elements[counter].remove();
instead of this line
myList.removeChild(myList.childNodes[ (counter) ]);
Instead of for loop you can consider of doing it the below way.
check this snippet
function removeSpec() {
var query = document.getElementById('spec').value; /* Value inputted by user */
var elements = document.getElementsByClassName('fruit'); /* Get the li elements in the list */
var myList = document.getElementById("myList3"); /* Var to reference the list */
var length = (document.getElementsByClassName('fruit').length); /* # of li elements */
var checker = 'false'; /* boolean-ish value to determine if value was found */
myList.querySelectorAll('li').forEach(function(item) {
if (item.innerHTML == query)
item.remove();
});
}
<ul id="myList3">
<li class="fruit">Apples</li>
<li class="fruit">Oranges</li>
<li class="fruit">Banannas</li>
<li class="fruit">Strawberry</li>
</ul>
<form>
Value:
<input type="text" name="" value="" id="spec">
<br>
<br>
</form>
<button type="button" style="height:20px;width:200px" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="removeSpec()">
Remove Specified
</button>
Hope it helps
This might sound crazy, but Chrome seems to parse your HTML unordered list into the following:
NodeList[9]
0: text
1: li.fruit
2: text
3: li.fruit
4: text
5: li.fruit
6: text
7: li.fruit
8: text
length: 9
__proto__: NodeList
Essentially, it appears to be creating a text node in your unordered list for each newline inside the tag. This also explains why deletion only occurs after you call the function a second time - it deletes the text node first, then it deletes the actual element on its second try.
Simple converting your HTML to the following form solves the problem (but is not very pretty):
<ul id="myList3"><li class="fruit">Apples</li><li class="fruit">Oranges</li><li class="fruit">Banannas</li><li class="fruit">Strawberry</li></ul>
There are some workarounds that you can try using. For example, you could try using the childNode.remove() method instead, though not all browsers support this.
Alternatively, something like this might also work:
selectedChildNode.parentNode.removeChild(selectedChildNode);
here the problem is in myList.removeChild(myList.childNodes[ (counter) ]); because myList.childNodes node return 8 values instead of 4. We have elements array with 4 nodes, hence the removing from elements array yields a proper result
Try the code snippet below,
function removeSpec() {
var query = document.getElementById('spec').value;
elements = document.getElementsByClassName('fruit');
var myList = document.getElementById("myList3");
var length = elements.length;
var checker = 'false';
for(var counter = 0; counter < length; counter ++)
{
if (elements[counter].textContent == query )
{
alert("Counter : " + counter);
myList.removeChild(elements[counter]);
checker="true";
}
}
if ( checker == "false")
{
alert("Not Found");
}
}
myList is an array of li element so removeChild on myList is logically not correct.
Also, myList.childNodes doesn't make sense here.
Try
myList[counter].parentNode.removeChild(myList[counter]);
I would like to search by any term (name, user, from, price), and display the div into top and hide the ones who doesn't have the typed value.
Here's the jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Sc9ys/10/
I would like to have the same result as the jquery mobile table filter http://demos.jquerymobile.com/1.4.0/filterable/
Where you can search for any term.
I know that for search for any term I should use $(list).find("li *:)... but I can't figure out how to display the items properly. If you test my jsfiddle it doesn't work very well.
Edit: As asked by the user below, here's some more info.
<ul id='list'>
<li>
<div class='row'>
<div class='middle'>
<ul>
<li><h3>Stackoverflow</h3></li>
<li><span>User</span></li>
<li><span>London</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style='clear: both'></div>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
$("#search").change( function () {
$(list).find("li *:not(:Contains(" + filter + "))").parent().hide();
});
DEMO
The idea is in
$("#ul_container").find("li").filter(function () {//your comparing logic here });
Here, try this out. Honesty I couldn't read thru your code, so I made this example. I added the sub items (spans that contain data to be searched) in an array datalist by their class name.
Generic Search Function.
HTML
<input type="text" id="search" />
<ul id="ul_container">
<li class="listItem">
<span class="car">Honda</span>
<span class="country">Japan</span>
</li>
<li class="listItem">
<span class="car">BMW</span>
<span class="country">Germany</span>
</li>
</ul>
Script:
//Capture user input
$("#search").on("keyup change", function () {
var str = $.trim($(this).val());
if (str) {
search(str);
} else {
// if no input, then show all
$(".listItem").show();
}
});
//the search part.
var datalist = ["car", "country"];
function search(toFind) {
//select all li and loop thru them one by one
$("#ul_container").find("li").filter(function () {
var $li = $(this);//hold current li in a variable
//loop thru all sub spans by their class and check if the toFind keyword is there
// you modify this step, i use it to specify which sub span to be searched. Sometimes I don't want all field to be searched, only the ones I select.
for (var i = 0; i < datalist.length; i++) {
//hold the span in a var called $item
var $item = $li.children("." + datalist[i]);
var content_str = $item.html();//get the actual string
//the comparing code
if (content_str.toLowerCase().indexOf(toFind.toLowerCase()) >= 0) {
$li.show();
break;
} else {
$li.hide();
}
}
});
}
Solved guys. Thank you all.
You can see the following example working at: http://jsfiddle.net/Sc9ys/29/
$('#search').on('keyup change', function(){
var str = $.trim($(this).val());
if (str) {
search(str, $("#list"));
} else {
$("#list").find('li').show();
/* The <li> are display: none, to show them again if the input type is clear,
we must find those <li> and show them. Showing only the #list isn't enough. */
}
});
function search(toFind, list){
$(list).find('li').filter(function() {
$li = $(this);
$li.find(".middle :contains(" + toFind +")").parent().parent().slideDown();
$li.find(".middle").not(":contains(" + toFind + ")").parent().parent().slideUp();
});
}
/* Function to search with the input lowercase */
$.expr[":"].contains = $.expr.createPseudo(function(arg) {
return function( elem ) {
return $(elem).text().toUpperCase().indexOf(arg.toUpperCase()) >= 0;
};
});
Edit: Made some adjustments according to the help of user #Joraid.
I'm working on something really simple, a short quiz, and I am trying to make the items I have listed in a 2-d array each display as a <li>. I tried using the JS array.join() method but it didn't really do what I wanted. I'd like to place them into a list, and then add a radio button for each one.
I have taken the tiny little leap to Jquery, so alot of this is my unfamiliarity with the "syntax". I skimmed over something on their API, $.each...? I'm sure this works like the for statement, I just can't get it to work without crashing everything I've got.
Here's the HTML pretty interesting stuff.
<div id="main_">
<div class="facts_div">
<ul>
</ul>
</div>
<form>
<input id="x" type="button" class="myBtn" value="Press Me">
</form>
</div>
And, here is some extremely complex code. Hold on to your hats...
$(document).ready (function () {
var array = [["Fee","Fi","Fo"],
["La","Dee","Da"]];
var q = ["<li>Fee-ing?","La-ing?</li>"];
var counter = 0;
$('.myBtn').on('click', function () {
$('#main_ .facts_div').text(q[counter]);
$('.facts_div ul').append('<input type= "radio">'
+ array[counter]);
counter++;
if (counter > q.length) {
$('#main_ .facts_div').text('You are done with the quiz.');
$('.myBtn').hide();
}
});
});
Try
<div id="main_">
<div class="facts_div"> <span class="question"></span>
<ul></ul>
</div>
<form>
<input id="x" type="button" class="myBtn" value="Press Me" />
</form>
</div>
and
jQuery(function ($) {
//
var array = [
["Fee", "Fi", "Fo"],
["La", "Dee", "Da"]
];
var q = ["Fee-ing?", "La-ing?"];
var counter = 0;
//cache all the possible values since they are requested multiple times
var $facts = $('#main_ .facts_div'),
$question = $facts.find('.question'),
$ul = $facts.find('ul'),
$btn = $('.myBtn');
$btn.on('click', function () {
//display the question details only of it is available
if (counter < q.length) {
$question.text(q[counter]);
//create a single string containing all the anwers for the given question - look at the documentation for jQuery.map for details
var ansstring = $.map(array[counter], function (value) {
return '<li><input type="radio" name="ans"/>' + value + '</li>'
}).join('');
$ul.html(ansstring);
counter++;
} else {
$facts.text('You are done with the quiz.');
$(this).hide();
}
});
//
});
Demo: Fiddle
You can use $.each to iterate over array[counter] and create li elements for your options:
var list = $('.facts_div ul');
$.each(array[counter], function() {
$('<li></li>').html('<input type="radio" /> ' + this).appendTo(list);
}
The first parameter is your array and the second one is an anonymous function to do your action, in which this will hold the current element value.
Also, if you do this:
$('#main_ .facts_div').text(q[counter]);
You will be replacing the contents of your element with q[counter], losing your ul tag inside it. In this case, you could use the prepend method instead of text to add this text to the start of your tag, or create a new element just for holding this piece of text.
I've setup a basic search function within my iPhone app. It works as
it should on the simulator but when using the app on the device, the
search button doesn't do anything when it is tapped. I have tried
numerous things to get it to work (onsubmit, etc.) but nothing works.
Can anybody help?
Here is my search function and the form:
function recipeInfo(name, ingredients, url) {
this.name = name;
this.ingredients = ingredients;
this.url = url;
}
var vIngredients = new Array();
vIngredients[0] = new recipeInfo("Ackee Pasta", "ackee", "ackpast.html");
vIngredients[1] = new recipeInfo("Ackee and Saltfish", "ackee saltfish", "acksalt.html");
vIngredients[2] = new recipeInfo("Jerk Chicken", "jerk", "jerkchick.html");
// do the lookup
function getData(form) {
// make a copy of the text box contents
var inputText = form.Input.value
var list = $("#search-results");
list.empty();
// loop through all entries of vIngredients array
for (var i = 0; i < vIngredients.length; i++) {
// compare results
if (vIngredients[i].ingredients.indexOf(inputText) != -1) {
var found = true;
console.log(vIngredients[i].name);
//add to the list the search result plus list item tags
list.append (
$("<li class='arrow'><a href='#' >" + vIngredients[i].name + "</a></li>" )
);
}
}
}
</script>
<form id="search" action="" onsubmit="getData(this.form);">
<ul class="rounded">
<li><input type="search" name="Input" placeholder="Search..." onkeydown="if (event.keyCode == 13) getData(this.form)"></li>
</ul>
<ul class="edgetoedge" id="results">
<li class="sep">Results</li>
</ul>
<ul class="edgetoedge" id="search-results">
</ul>
</form>
I should mention, the only reason it works on the simulator is because of:
onkeydown="if (event.keyCode == 13) getData(this.form)"
Removing that will make it stop working in simulator.
Apple "fixed" this in iOS 4.2. For a form to get onsubmit events, there has to be an input tag with type="submit".
I'm looking to expand on a recent script i've coded using jquery.
I have this following code
<script type='text/javascript'>
added_departments = new Array();
$("#departments_submit").click(function(){
var depo = $("#depo_list").val();
if(jQuery.inArray(depo, added_departments) != -1)
{
return false;
}
else
{
added_departments.push(depo);
$("#depo_added_list").append("<li>" + depo + "<a href='#' title='"+ depo +"' class='remove_depo'> [X] </a></li>");
var current_value = $("#departments").val();
if(current_value)
{
$("#departments").val(current_value + "," + depo);
}
else
{
$("#departments").val(depo);
}
return false;
}
});
</script>
The above code takes information selected in a select drop down box, adds it to a div to display publicly and also into a hidden form field that processes the data.
i've tried to create now something that will reverse this effect and remove certain selections from the div and the field. which is where i have this code
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(".remove_depo").click(function(){
var removing = $(this).title();
var current_val = $("#deparments").val();
if(current_val == removing) {
$("departments").replace(removing, "");
}
else {
$("departments").replace("," + removing, "");
}
});
</script>
It doesn't cause any errors, but it doesn't do anything either? So I'm really stuck. Any ideas?
EDIT: Updated code
$(".remove_depo").click(function(){
var removing = $(this).attr('title');
var current_val = $("#deparments").val();
if(current_val == removing) {
$("#departments").replace(removing, "");
}
else {
$("#departments").replace("," + removing, "");
}
});
Here is the html
<form method="post" action="javascript:void(0);">Select Departments To Be Added:
<div class="depo_adder">
<select id="depo_list"><option value="">--- INDIVIDUAL TAGS ---</option><option value="blah">blah</option></select>
<button id="departments_submit">Go!</button>
</div></form><form method="post" action="briefings/addbriefing.php">
<div class="form">
<strong>Departments: </strong>
<ul id="depo_added_list"><li>blah [X] </li></ul>
<input name="departments" id="departments" value="blah" type="hidden">
</div>
you're referring to $('departments') - this won't work. You need to specify either an identifierm eg $('#departments') or a class, eg $('.departments)
ah - other answer is also correct, .title() is not a function. You want
$('#foo').attr('title') to get the title.
