I have a page the makes an AJAX request, and returns some data from the database, once it is retruned I am trying to append it to a div and make an accordion, however all I am getting is the data back and no accordion here is my source code once the AJAX has run.(snippet)
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
//accordians for when the AJAX loads the content
// hides the main_menu as soon as the DOM is ready
// (a little sooner than page load)
$('#main_menu').hide();
// shows the slickbox on clicking the noted link
$('h3#show-menu a').click(function() {
$('#main_menu').toggle('slow');
return false;
});
//try and hide the left content when it is null
$("#left-content:empty").hide();
//style up the scroll bar
$('#left-content').jScrollPane();
//do some AJAX to call the method instead of the browser
$("a.navlink").click(function (ev) {
$(this).toggleClass("active");
ev.preventDefault();
var id = $(this).attr("id")
if ($(this).hasClass("active")) {
$("."+id).remove();
} else {
//$(this).toggleClass("active");
var url = $(this).attr("href");
$.ajax ({
url: url,
type: "POST",
success : function (html) {
$("#accordion").append(html);
$('#accordion').accordion({
active: 0,
header:'h2.Blog'
});
//alert(accordion())
}
});
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div style="left: -100em; position: absolute; width: 100em;"/>
<div id="wrapper">
<h3 id="show-menu">
</h3>
<div id="main_menu" style="display: block;">
</div>
<div id="left-content-holder">
</div>
<div id="right-content">
<div id="accordion" class="ui-accordion ui-widget ui-helper-reset" role="tablist">
<h2 class="Blog ui-accordion-header ui-helper-reset ui-state-active ui-corner-top" role="tab" aria-expanded="true" tabindex="0">
</h2>
<div class="Blog ui-accordion-content ui-helper-reset ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom ui-accordion-content-active" style="height: 16px;" role="tabpanel">Hello World</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
As you can see the data gets appended to the <div id="accordion"> and all the apropriate classes get given to the elements that should give it accordion functionality but I get nothing. Should i be creating the accordion from the DOM and theoretically the data is returned is not in the HTML and if so how would I go about doing this?
Thanks
Looks as though the accordion doesn't like things being appended onto it. Assuming you already have the accordion initiated, try destroying the accordion before you append the html to it in your success function.
$('#accordion').accordion('destroy');
before
$('#accordion').append(html);
Then you can re-initiate it as you're doing already.

Here's a js fiddle to demonstrate the problem.
I have a fixed position floating/popup dialog on my page that contains a series of tabs using the easytabs jQuery plugin. When the dialog appears, any tab selection causes the webpage (behind the floating dialog) to jump/scroll to a different position on the page.
I've read in other places that forcing the click behavior of the anchor tags in the tab structure to prevent the default behavior will correct this issue, but it doesn't seem to be working for me e.g. assigning a class such as .prevent-default to each tab anchor element and doing:
$('.prevent-default').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
Here's some html:
<h1>Top</h1><button onclick="showTabDialog();">Tabs</button>
<p id="spacer"></p>
<h1>Bottom</h1>
<div id="dialog" class="floating-dialog">
<div id="tabs" class="tab-container">
<ul class="tabs">
<li class="tab">
First
</li>
<li class="tab">
Second
</li>
</ul>
<div id="content-container">
<div id="first" class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-no-data">No data yet</div>
</div>
<div id="second" class="tab-content">
<div class="tab-no-data">No data yet</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
...and some js:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#tabs').easytabs({animationSpeed: 'fast'});
$('.prevent-default').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
});
function showTabDialog() {
$('#dialog').fadeIn();
}
$('#tabs').easytabs({animationSpeed: 'fast', updateHash: false});
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/naa22prw/3/
Another way to do this is to set a minimum height on the tabs container div. `
#tab-container{
min-height: 700px;
}
This means that you can use the updateHash: true so the URL can change each time a tab is clicked.

Script:
$( ".title").mouseenter(function() {
var which = $(this).index();
$('.globalnav li').find('.dropdown').hide().eq(which).show();
}).mouseleave(function() {
var which = $(this).index();
$('.globalnav li').find('.dropdown').hide().eq(which).hide();
});
Navigation:
<ul class="globalnav">
<li>
<div class="title">Home</div>
<div class="dropdown">
<div class="navlinks">
<div class="linkstitle">Title</div>
<div class="navlink">Link1</div>
<div class="navlink">Link1</div>
</div>
</div>
</li>
...
The above code is what I am using right now which does not work in Chrome as intended *I need to hold my click down to view the div. I use mouseover, it does not work properly in IE and FF.
I am also having trouble showing the associated div of the title (on title hover, show specific div) due to the nature of the coding format itself (client given code). Right now, on hovering over a title, it shows the first li's content for "navlinks".
Here's a fiddle to show you
Thanks
Why are you using the index of the .title element, if the other LI's look like that, the which variable will always be 0, and it's not the way to target the right .dropdown ?
Try something more like this
$( ".title").on('mouseenter mouseleave', function(e) {
var dropdown = $(this).closest('li').find('.dropdown').toggle(e.type=='mouseenter');
$('.dropdown').not(dropdown).hide();
});
And if you want the dropdown to be visible while hovering it, place it inside the element that triggers the mouseleave
<li>
<div class="title">
Home
<div class="dropdown">
<div class="navlinks">
<div class="linkstitle">Title</div>
<div class="navlink">Link1</div>
<div class="navlink">Link1</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</li>

I am working on a website and I can't seem to make it dynamic. My problem is that I can not get the navigation bar to be interactive. When I click it, nothing happens but it refreshes the same page.
(http://puu.sh/8RkDH.png) <- That's what the website looks like with this HTML, javascript and css: http://pastebin.com/Lz1rDwVj.
I thought
<div id="page">
<div id="header"><h1>FILMSTER</h1></div>
<div id="nav">
HOMEPAGE
DIRECTORS
MOVIES
CONTACT
</div>
<div id="main">
<div id="content">
<div class="tabs-container">
<div class="tab" id="HOMEPAGE"></div>
<div class="tab" id="DIRECTORS">asdfasdf</div>
<div class="tab" id="MOVIES">asdfasdf</div>
<div class="tab" id="CONTACT">gfdsgg</div>
would make my navigation bar interactive, but when I click one of the categories, It just refreshes the same page.
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
//Assign the click handlers:
var nav = $('#nav'),
currentTab = nav.find('a').first().text();
nav.on('click', 'a', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
if( $(this).text() !== currentTab ) {
$('.tabs-container').find('.tab').fadeOut(function() {
$('#' + currentTab).fadeIn();
}
}
}
});
</script>
Does not seem to help either.
Im currently creating a site which has a div like below:
<div class="container">
<div class="one-third column">
<a id="tab1" href="inc/tab1.html"><h2>tab1</h2></a>
</div>
<div class="one-third column">
<a id="tab2" href="inc/tab2.html"><h2>tab2</h2></a>
</div>
<div class="one-third column">
<a id="tab3" href="inc/tab3.html"><h2>tab3</h2></a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container" style="margin:100px 0;">
<div id="information">
</div>
</div>
Then i would like the content from the external page (which is basically just a div with a little bit of content in it) to be loaded into the div with id="information"
I tried using this but it just sends me to an external page?
<script type="text/javascript">
$(#tab1).click(function() {
$('#information').load("inc/tab1.html");
return false;
});
$(#tab2).click(function() {
$('#information').load("inc/tab2.html");
return false;
});
$(#tab3).click(function() {
$('#information').load("inc/tab3.html");
return false;
});
</script>
Also by doing it this way is the content that is currently in the div hidden once the new content is loaded?
Then i was wondering how to add animation to the loaded content?
try changing:
$(#tab2).click(function() {
$('#information').load("inc/tab2.html");
return false;
});
to
$("#tab2").click(function(e) {
$('#information').load("inc/tab2.html");
e.preventDefault();
});
Notice the quotes around tab2 (you need to have those unless it's body, document.
Also notice the e in function(e). With that you can prevent a link from redirecting to another page with the code e.preventDefault() inside of that function.
That's because there are several syntax errors in your code, you are missing quotes for the selectors.
$('#tab...').click(function() {
// ...
});
You can also use the href properties instead of having several handlers:
jQuery(function($) {
$('.one-third a').click(function(e) {
e.peventDefault();
$('#information').load(this.href);
});
})
I've created a simple menu setup whereby all info is on the same page - just most is hidden until that tab is selected. The filter JS I'm using works great for this but for some reason (in CHROME only), when the menu item is clicked (eg, Location, Help), the screen shoots up a few hundred pixels (displays the selected info just fine though). Strangely, this happens only when the page is refreshed and the item is clicked for the first time. After that, everything works great!
Below is the pertinent code but to see it in action, see test site
The JS I'm using for the filter is:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#nav a').click(function() {
$('#nav a.current').removeClass('current');
$(this).addClass('current');
var filterVal = $(this).text().toLowerCase().replace(' ','');
$('#content div').each(function() {
if(!$(this).hasClass(filterVal)) {
$(this).hide().addClass('hidden');
} else {
$(this).show().removeClass('hidden');
}
});
return false;
});
});
with the HTML menu and info as:
<ul id=nav>
<li>Mission</li>
<li>Location</li>
<li>Help</li>
<li>Vendors</li>
</ul>
<div id=content>
<div class=mission>
<img src="./images/roosters.jpg">
<h2>The Mission</h2>
<p>...</p>
</div>
<div class=location>
<img src="./images/old_market.jpg">
<h2>Our Location</h2>
<p>...</p>
</div>
<div class=help>
<img src="./images/helpers.jpg">
<h2>Get Involved</h2>
<p>...</p>
</div>
<div class=vendors>
<img src="./images/artisans.jpg">
<h2>Our Vendors</h2>
<p>...</p>
</div>
</div>
It's the href="#" in your anchor tags, those are pointing to the top of the page. You probably want to add a preventDefault() to your click handler. Read all about it here.
