I am trying to have images appear on click of a button. I have that process working, but I'd like for the users/players to not see the buttons I will be clicking.
Is there a way to set a space where the button 'still lives' but isn't visible?
I'm pretty sure I'm going to need to get cute and hide the buttons on screen. However, if i can set them to specific spots and have them invisible, but clickable, that would be ideal.
Thanks in advance for the help.
I'm using HTML, CSS and Java. There's no JQuery in the code (for context)
The question itself is not clear but from what I understand you can do something like that in a various ways:
-- If the case is making them visible before click, you can set their z-index to "-1" and when you need to click them, change it to "1"
-- If the case is buttons are going to stay on the page and clickable but no one can visually see them, you can set their opacity to 0. Even they are invisible you can still click them via this method.
--> To position them on a specific area on your page you can use your CSS as the way you want. No need to worry about opacity change.

I have a site where I want to be able to show or hide a div based on both user input (clicking/tapping a button) and screen size:
a) If the screen width is greater than a certain size, show the div but allow the user to hide it.
b) If the screen with is less than a certain size, hide the div but allow the user to reveal it.
What I'm struggling with is getting these two requirements to interact properly.
I'm using Foundation 5 and jQuery, so both parts of this are possible - Foundation's "show-for-foo-up" handles initial visibility, and there are numerous jQuery functions that allow a div to be toggled between visible and hidden. But what I can't seem to do is find a way to allow a user click to reveal a div that has initially been hidden by Foundation's media query, or a way to do a pure jQuery toggle (ignoring Foundation) that sets the initial visibility according to screen size.
What makes this more complex is that the div contains a form. So I can't simply repeat it in two different divs and toggle between them, as doing that would either mean duplicate element ids or two different forms, both of which aren't possible in this scenario.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm open to either a jQuery solution, a Foundation solution or a pure javascript solution, just so long as it works!
Yes, CBroe's comment put me on the right track and my assumption thereafter was correct. All it needs is to use jQuery to alter the class of the div to add or remove the class which uses a media query. Dunno why I didn't think of this before, really.
I have this page where I tried to create a on page pop-up for an image using JS/JQuery, following this example (http://www.jqueryscript.net/lightbox/Simple-jQuery-Plugin-For-Opening-A-Popup-Window-On-Page-load.html).
Although I succeeded on it, when I try to implement it on my customer page, some divs are on front of my pop-up, no matter how high I configure the "z-index" for it. Also, these divs seem to be dinamically generated, as they have the "wrap" id div around that I can't find on my .php file for this page.
So, no matter what I do, these images are on front of my pop-up (except if I remove them using the "Inspect element" tool or change the z-index on them with Inspect Element, changing the inline style for this automatically generated "wrap" div).
This is the page without any changes on "Inspect Element", the white image boxes with the red arrows are the problem here (they belong to the page under the pop-up and I need them to be under the pop-up): http://imgur.com/waB1igo
This is what happens if I change the z-index of the automatically generated div "wrap" that I can find searching the code with "Inspect element" for one of the boxes (the first one): imgur.com/lDk1eRA
So, any of you guys have a tip for me on how to solve this problem?
I've already tried to create new css rules for this div or the img's tags, using the "!important" and these kind of things, without result.
Thanks very much in advance and sorry for english errors,

You might want to try setting the position property of the overlay to absolute. Images that have their positions set to absolute will get on top of everything that is not set to position absolute or fixed which can be very annoying. You might need to work around a bit with centering it or other issues that come from setting its position to absolute but this should work.
Try to make sure your overlay DIVs are outside wrappers, inside the </body> tag, before closing scripts... If the DIV is inside another that has a lower z-index, it won't "pop out" of it.
Also, you may try really high z-index, such as 8000 or higher. You should be able to use up to 65535 (higher depending on the browser's implementation).
It's worth noting that you should have a plan for z indexes of fixed/absolutely positioned items.
Here's some more details - due to some weird restrictions with the YouTube API, I am forced to push a container off the page to give the impression of hiding the container.
I achieve this by using this class:
.my_hide{
margin-left:-9999px;
position:fixed !important;
}
And by using the JQuery methods $("player-list_container").removeClass("my_hide") and $("player-list_container").addClass("my_hide") to control the toggling.
However, the toggling looks jaunty, and the container jumps up once the class is removed. I want to be able to transition smoothly from one state to the other, and am at a loss for how to do it.
This behaviour can be demonstrated here
Add a video by typing in and searching for anything, and then hit the Play button located below. You should observe the behaviour described.
Iam assuming you 'are not able to'/'not want to' manually hide the container but want to change its position so that it is outside the boundaries of the page and it looks hidden.
In that case changing the position property will definitely give you a jumpy instead of a smooth effect since this affects the whole layout of the page (Read more). What you can instead do is change its position using CSS3 animation's translate property.
Here's a demo I've coded which does exactly what you want.
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/EgcIi
The "Click me" button toggles between taking the container off and on the page and it does it smoothly. You can also adjust the time which it takes to change the position of container. (As of now its 500ms)
I want it to look like the container is fading in in position meaning I would have to get the container to that position before using any type of animation function.
Then, don't throw the element way off the page with CSS. Leave it where it is, and hide it with .hide(). Then fade it in with .fadeIn().
You'll need to manually size the container, as it won't expand to contain a hidden element.
On my screen it just popped up. Im not 100% sure what type of pop in effect you want but that said, check out http://api.jquery.com/animate/
i was going to code up an example but that page has a bunch!
good luck!
PS: scroll down for all the visual animation examples.
Here is some sample code:
$('#myBtn').click(function(){
$( '.ytv' ).fadeTo( "fast", Math.random() );
//add animation code here;
});
check out a rough fiddle.
edit: heres a rough example: http://jsfiddle.net/somdow/Lef9n/2/
just click the red area to the right of the video
Animate function in jQuery wll help you
I've got a question. I've been working on this site for a while, and I've hit a bit of a brick wall. I've thought this over a few times and I'm not sure how to go about this.
I've got 5 different configurations for content on a page, and I need to swap between them. What's supposed to happen, is when the user clicks on a button, a series of animations is supposed to happen, and ultimately replace the button and the top with the one that was pressed. The one that was at the top should return to its original position ("Home" should always be on top, "About" should always be just beneath that, save for when it's the current page).
My site is here, http://www.logicanddesign.ca, and all the javascript is open for you to see. Any help you guys could provide would really help. I'd like to do this without completely rewriting my site, but if it's the only way, I will.
Well, the first thing I'd like to point out is that you're associating the button_click function with the images instead of the divs containing them. You would be better off using the div tags for event handling.
Secondly, you only move the current button and the pressed button. To achieve the affect you're going for, you need to move the buttons in-between the default positions of buttonPressed and currentPage.
Moreover, you can't just statically define moveUp function for the button pressed and nothing else. Because sometimes you'll need to move the buttons between the button pressed and current button upwards.
As is apparant, you need to account for in-between moves when you set divs to animate. Possibly in the moveDivs function.
I made a fiddle representing what changes you could do to achive required effect, but I feel what I have written is a mess. The sort of mess which is worthy of nightmares, really...
In my opinion, you could create a javascript class to handle animations and movements. Making a class will make code much cleaner and you could indefinitely add buttons without breaking your code.
Im busy with an mobile website design, but im not that good with javascript. So i would like to have an startup script which i can modify. So i dont know where to start.
What i want to achieve is the following:
When you click on an button/div (onclick function) an div slides up (change margin top/make an invisble div that slides in height). And on the same click an other div slides open. (So the second div isnt shown at first but on click it is shown.
I dont know if this is possible but im sure you guys know if it is.
Kind regards,
Augus
yeah it can be done easily with Jquery. you can even set sliding speed.
you can check this thread and you can do something similar. I have answered in that thread as well.
or you can do it using below function:
jQuery('#div_id_1').slideDown("slow");
jQuery('#div_id_2').slideUp("slow");
