Hide div if agents offline with Live Chat Inc - javascript

I am using LiveChat on my website and trying to show a div if no agents are available, using their guide here
Javascript
LC_API.on_after_load = function() {
if (LC_API.agents_are_available()) {
$("#ChatLink2").hide();
} else {
$("#ChatLink2").show();
}
};
HTML
<div class='ChatLink2' id='ChatLink2'>Currently Unavailable</div>
However, the div ChatLink2 is not showing when no agents are available

It appears to be race conditions with both LiveChat and JQuery. Below checks for LC availability and uses vanilla JS instead of jQuery.
Also included state change callback if agents go offline after init.
var waitForLC = setInterval(function () {
if (window.LC_API === undefined) {
return;
}
clearInterval(waitForLC);
var showUnavailableStatus = function(show){
var statusDiv = document.getElementById("ChatLink2");
var style = show ? "block" : "none";
statusDiv.style.display = style;
}
LC_API.on_after_load = function() {
if (LC_API.agents_are_available()) {
showUnavailableStatus(false);
} else {
showUnavailableStatus(true);
}
};
LC_API.on_chat_state_changed = function(data) {
showUnavailableStatus(data.state==="offline");
};
}, 100);

Javascript selection undefined

One of my web app using RichTextBox control from .Net 2.0, the purpose of using it to allow user add/edit content on the fly. This is an old app but it functions as no issue. But since we update DevExpress 16.1 from 14.5 version, things went sour, the app stopped working.
All the icons that using javascript stop working. For example I got undefined value for globalDoc.selection.type
Here is a sample of insert a hyperlink on .cs
//Insert our own custom hyperlink
RichTextBoxControl.ToolbarButton tbInsertLink = new
RichTextBoxControl.ToolbarButton("InsertLink", true);
tbInsertLink.Title = "Insert web address or email link";
tbInsertLink.ClientOnClickFunction = "CustomHyperlink";
RTB_editor.CreateToolbarButton(tbInsertLink);
layoutStr.Append(tbInsertLink.Name);
And below are function on .aspx page. The error starts are globalDoc.selection.type
function CustomHyperlink(editor, htmlmode) {
if (!htmlmode) {
editor.focus();
ShowCustomLinkDialog(editor);
} else {
alert("To use the toolbar, change the HTML view setting");
}
}
function ShowCustomLinkDialog(editor) {
var globalDoc = editor.document;
var rngLink;
var elmLink;
if ("Control" == globalDoc.selection.type) {
RTB_rngMaster = globalDoc.selection.createRange();
if (1 == RTB_rngMaster.length) {
RTB_rngMaster = RTB_getTextRange(RTB_rngMaster(0));
RTB_rngMaster.select();
}
}
if (
"Text" == globalDoc.selection.type ||
"None" == globalDoc.selection.type
) {
RTB_rngMaster = globalDoc.selection.createRange();
//URL is always selected by default
document.all("radioURL").checked = true;
elmLink = RTB_findParentTag("A", RTB_rngMaster);
if (null != elmLink) {
rngLink = RTB_getTextRange(elmLink);
if (rngLink.compareEndPoints("StartToStart", RTB_rngMaster) < 0) {
RTB_rngMaster.setEndPoint("StartToStart", rngLink);
}
if (rngLink.compareEndPoints("EndToEnd", RTB_rngMaster) > 0) {
RTB_rngMaster.setEndPoint("EndToEnd", rngLink);
}
RTB_rngMaster.select();
if ("" != elmLink.href) {
//see what type of link this is
var _linkTxt = elmLink.href;
var _index = _linkTxt.indexOf("mailto:");
if (_index == 0) {
//strip out the mailto from showing
_linkTxt = _linkTxt.substr(7);
document.all("radioEmail").checked = true;
}
document.getElementById("Custom_txtUrl").value = _linkTxt;
} else {
// no href
document.getElementById("Custom_txtUrl").value = "";
}
} else {
//New Selection
document.getElementById("Custom_txtUrl").value = "";
}
RTB_showDialog(editor, CustomLinkDialog, CustomLinkDialogCallback);
document.all("Custom_txtUrl").focus();
}
}
Although on this web page I didn’t use any control any of DevExpress control, but the project as a whole has reference in DevExpress assemblies and use for different applications.
I am not sure why D.E. causes issue to RichTextBox control javascript. Please help!
Thanks

How can I recreate Squarespace's Product Quick View in standard Product View?

Overview
So I'm trying to take functionality from one part of Squarespace's Galapagos commerce template and add it to another but it's proving to be more difficult than I thought.
I need the image-swapping capability of the "Quick View" (example - mouse over any image and click Quick View ) to replace the column of full sized zoomable images in the "Product View" (example - you see this once you click on a product).
So I found the code for each section:
Product View
This code simply goes through each image in the array and spits it out with the id jsProductItemImages which allows it to be hovered and zoomed.
<div class="productitem-images" id="jsProductItemImages">
{.repeated section items}
{.image?}
<div class="productitem-image-zoom-wrapper sqs-image-zoom-area"><img data-load="false" class="productitem-image loading" {#|image-meta} /></div>
{.end}
{.video?}
{#|video}
{.end}
{.end}
</div>
Quick View
I'm not 100% on the logic here, but essentially it's grabbing the first image and making it a hover/zoomable primary image then listing the entire array of images beneath it as thumbnails. I read that the # symbol is the equivalent of saying this in javascript, but I don't get why it's being used to spit out only the first image in the array.
<figure class="ProductItem-gallery">
{.section items}
<div class="ProductItem-gallery-slides">
{.repeated section #}
{.image?}
<div class="ProductItem-gallery-slides-item" data-slide-index="{#index}"><img class="ProductItem-gallery-slides-item-image" data-load="false" {#|image-meta} /></div>
{.end}
{.video?}
{#|video}
{.end}
{.end}
</div>
{.end}
<div class="ProductItem-gallery-thumbnails">
{.if items.1}{.repeated section items}<div class="ProductItem-gallery-thumbnails-item"><img class="ProductItem-gallery-thumbnails-item-image" data-load="false" {#|image-meta} /></div>{.end}{.end}
</div>
</figure>
Associated JS
First off, it should be noted that I went through and console logged every function to see what was giving the Quick View it's functionality - to no avail. Which is subsequently why I'm here. So it's easy to see where the zoom function is originating: the Product View in the Galapagos.ProductItem function on line 103 $imageContainer = Y.one('#jsProductItemImages');
But I don't see anything out of the ordinary pop up when I look at the Quick View. I've got to be missing something!

My Attempts
My first few attempts have been dropping the jsProductItemImages div from the Product view and dumping in the entire figure block from the Quick View then updating the associated css. While it pulls in the images (I can see them in the inspector and they take up space on the page) it shows up as being blank.
I also tried only using the thumbnails section from the Quick View and limiting the Product View to only show the first image by using {.section items.0} but then any thumbnail I clicked wouldn't swap out without writing the script for it (obviously) but I didn't want to write something like that when I know it exists in the code already!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
UPDATE:
After replacing the product view markup with the quick view markup I ran into these errors
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'all' of null site.js:104
init # site.js:104

Unsure why it's hitting an error with .all because it should be addressing the same array of images in both situations?
There's a few questions buried in the this post but let me answer the Quick View question specifically since that's what you're looking to "fix".
Squarespace uses a modular system of JavaScript/CSS add-ons called "rollups". If you pull the source code you'll see a window object that contains the current configuration of any given page. When visiting a Products page, the system triggers the use of their quick view JS and accommodating CSS file. This is where you'll want to be looking. The JS you're digging into is not relevant to Quick View (I don't believe).
Quick View Rollup JS: http://static.squarespace.com/universal/scripts-compressed/product-quick-view-6a1e5642b473ebbb5944-min.js
Quick View Rollup CSS: http://static.squarespace.com/universal/styles-compressed/product-quick-view-eb4b900ac0155bed2f175aa82e2a7c17-min.css
These rollups are triggered off of JavaScript hooks in the template files. What you'll need to do is experiment with using the Galapagos product template word and word so it has the same classes and data-attributes, and see if that works. It would take far too long to cover all of the details of what you need to do without actually working on the project. I would start here first and see if you can setup your product template to triggers the Quick View JS as is, without customization.

Check if my website is open in another tab

I want to check with JavaScript if the user has already opened my website in another tab in their browser.
It seems I cannot do that with pagevisibility...
The only way I see is to use WebSocket based on a session cookie, and check if the client has more than one socket. But by this way, from current tab, I have to ask my server if this user has a tab opened right next to their current browser tab. It is a little far-fetched!
Maybe with localstorage?
The shorter version with localStorage and Storage listener
<script type="text/javascript">
// Broadcast that you're opening a page.
localStorage.openpages = Date.now();
var onLocalStorageEvent = function(e){
if(e.key == "openpages"){
// Listen if anybody else is opening the same page!
localStorage.page_available = Date.now();
}
if(e.key == "page_available"){
alert("One more page already open");
}
};
window.addEventListener('storage', onLocalStorageEvent, false);
</script>
Update:
Works on page crash as well.

Live demo
Using local storage I created a simple demo that should accomplish what your looking to do. Basically, it simply maintains a count of currently opened windows. When the window is closed the unload events fire and remove it from the total window count.
When you first look at it, you may think there's more going on than there really is. Most of it was a shotty attempt to add logic into who was the "main" window, and who should take over as the "main" window as you closed children. (Hence the setTimeout calls to recheck if it should be promoted to a main window) After some head scratching, I decided it would take too much time to implement and was outside the scope of this question. However, if you have two windows open (Main, and Child) and you close the Main, the child will be promoted to a main.
For the most part you should be able to get the general idea of whats going on and use it for your own implementation.
See it all in action here:
http://jsbin.com/mipanuro/1/edit
Oh yeah, to actually see it in action... Open the link in multiple windows. :)
Update:
I've made the necessary changes to have the the local storage maintain the "main" window. As you close tabs child windows can then become promoted to a main window. There are two ways to control the "main" window state through a parameter passed to the constructor of WindowStateManager. This implementation is much nicer than my previous attempt.
JavaScript:
// noprotect
var statusWindow = document.getElementById('status');
(function (win)
{
//Private variables
var _LOCALSTORAGE_KEY = 'WINDOW_VALIDATION';
var RECHECK_WINDOW_DELAY_MS = 100;
var _initialized = false;
var _isMainWindow = false;
var _unloaded = false;
var _windowArray;
var _windowId;
var _isNewWindowPromotedToMain = false;
var _onWindowUpdated;
function WindowStateManager(isNewWindowPromotedToMain, onWindowUpdated)
{
//this.resetWindows();
_onWindowUpdated = onWindowUpdated;
_isNewWindowPromotedToMain = isNewWindowPromotedToMain;
_windowId = Date.now().toString();
bindUnload();
determineWindowState.call(this);
_initialized = true;
_onWindowUpdated.call(this);
}
//Determine the state of the window
//If its a main or child window
function determineWindowState()
{
var self = this;
var _previousState = _isMainWindow;
_windowArray = localStorage.getItem(_LOCALSTORAGE_KEY);
if (_windowArray === null || _windowArray === "NaN")
{
_windowArray = [];
}
else
{
_windowArray = JSON.parse(_windowArray);
}
if (_initialized)
{
//Determine if this window should be promoted
if (_windowArray.length <= 1 ||
(_isNewWindowPromotedToMain ? _windowArray[_windowArray.length - 1] : _windowArray[0]) === _windowId)
{
_isMainWindow = true;
}
else
{
_isMainWindow = false;
}
}
else
{
if (_windowArray.length === 0)
{
_isMainWindow = true;
_windowArray[0] = _windowId;
localStorage.setItem(_LOCALSTORAGE_KEY, JSON.stringify(_windowArray));
}
else
{
_isMainWindow = false;
_windowArray.push(_windowId);
localStorage.setItem(_LOCALSTORAGE_KEY, JSON.stringify(_windowArray));
}
}
//If the window state has been updated invoke callback
if (_previousState !== _isMainWindow)
{
_onWindowUpdated.call(this);
}
//Perform a recheck of the window on a delay
setTimeout(function()
{
determineWindowState.call(self);
}, RECHECK_WINDOW_DELAY_MS);
}
//Remove the window from the global count
function removeWindow()
{
var __windowArray = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem(_LOCALSTORAGE_KEY));
for (var i = 0, length = __windowArray.length; i < length; i++)
{
if (__windowArray[i] === _windowId)
{
__windowArray.splice(i, 1);
break;
}
}
//Update the local storage with the new array
localStorage.setItem(_LOCALSTORAGE_KEY, JSON.stringify(__windowArray));
}
//Bind unloading events
function bindUnload()
{
win.addEventListener('beforeunload', function ()
{
if (!_unloaded)
{
removeWindow();
}
});
win.addEventListener('unload', function ()
{
if (!_unloaded)
{
removeWindow();
}
});
}
WindowStateManager.prototype.isMainWindow = function ()
{
return _isMainWindow;
};
WindowStateManager.prototype.resetWindows = function ()
{
localStorage.removeItem(_LOCALSTORAGE_KEY);
};
win.WindowStateManager = WindowStateManager;
})(window);
var WindowStateManager = new WindowStateManager(false, windowUpdated);
function windowUpdated()
{
//"this" is a reference to the WindowStateManager
statusWindow.className = (this.isMainWindow() ? 'main' : 'child');
}
//Resets the count in case something goes wrong in code
//WindowStateManager.resetWindows()

(2021) You can use BroadcastChannel to communicate between tabs of the same origin.
For example, put the following at the top level of your js code, then test by opening 2 tabs:
const bc = new BroadcastChannel("my-awesome-site");
bc.onmessage = (event) => {
if (event.data === `Am I the first?`) {
bc.postMessage(`No you're not.`);
alert(`Another tab of this site just got opened`);
}
if (event.data === `No you're not.`) {
alert(`An instance of this site is already running`);
}
};

This snippet of code, will detect how many tabs are open and how many are active (visible) and if none of tabs is active, it will choose last opened tab, as active one.
This code will handle windows/tab crash too and it will refresh the count at crash.
Because localStorage is not supported on Stack Overflow currently, please test here.

append to div one time

I am revisiting this code I made a year ago with the help of another person. Unfortunately I don't have contact with them anymore to get more help. Basically It dynamically adds classs to the tb and b nodes of a document coming from namesToChange. Now what I am trying to do is append some text to the div with class dtxt node but still use this code below. I am using the code $('td.pn_adm_jeff').children('div.dtxt').append('zzz'); and it works but it constantly appends more than once as seen in the photo below. How do I go about making it add once and stop?

Code
function customizefields(a) {
$('td b').each(function () {
name = $(this).text();
if (name.indexOf(" ") != -1) {
name = name.substring(0, name.indexOf(" "))
}
if (a[name]) {
this.className = a[name].class;
this.parentNode.className = a[name].img
}
})
$('td.pn_adm_jeff').children('div.dtxt').append('zzz');
}
var namesToChange = {
'Jeff' :{'class':'pn_adm','img':'pn_adm_jeff'}
};
setInterval(function () {
customizefields(namesToChange)
}, 1000);
Update
var needsUpdate = true;
function customizefields(a) {
$('td b').each(function () {
name = $(this).text();
if (name.indexOf(" ") != -1) {
name = name.substring(0, name.indexOf(" "));
}
if (a[name]) {
this.className = a[name].class;
this.parentNode.className = a[name].img;
}
});
if (needsUpdate) {
$('td.pn_adm_jeff').children('div.dtxt').append('testing');
needsUpdate = false;
}
}
var namesToChange = {
'jeff' :{'class':'pn_adm','img':'pn_adm_jeff'};
};
setTimeout(function () {
customizefields(namesToChange);
}, 1000);
use setTimeout rather than setInterval (interval is for repeating a timer task, timeout is a single timer task)
To prevent a certain task from occuring more than once in a repeated task, there is a simple fix.
// global variable
var needsUpdate = true;
// now in the timer task
if (needsUpdate) {
$('td.pn_adm_jeff').children('div.dtxt').append('zzz');
needsUpdate = false;
}
Does that work for you?
Define a global variable to hold the input flag
var appended = false;
function appendthestring() {
if(!appended) $('td.pn_adm_jeff').children('div.dtxt').append('zzz');
appended = true;
}

How to detect if some text box is changed via external script?

I have some jQuery plugin that changes some elements, i need some event or jQuery plugin that trigger an event when some text input value changed.
I've downloaded jquery.textchange plugin, it is a good plugin but doesn't detect changes via external source.
#MSS -- Alright, this is a kludge but it works:
When I call boxWatcher() I set the value to 3,000 but you'd need to do it much more often, like maybe 100 or 300.
http://jsfiddle.net/N9zBA/8/
var theOldContent = $('#theID').val().trim();
var theNewContent = "";
function boxWatcher(milSecondsBetweenChecks) {
var theLoop = setInterval(function() {
theNewContent = $('#theID').val().trim();
if (theOldContent == theNewContent) {
return; //no change
}
clearInterval(theLoop);//stop looping
handleContentChange();
}, milSecondsBetweenChecks);
};
function handleContentChange() {
alert('content has changed');
//restart boxWatcher
theOldContent = theNewContent;//reset theOldContent
boxWatcher(3000);//3000 is about 3 seconds
}
function buttonClick() {
$('#theID').value = 'asd;lfikjasd;fkj';
}
$(document).ready(function() {
boxWatcher(3000);
})
try to set the old value into a global variable then fire onkeypress event on your text input and compare between old and new values of it. some thing like that
var oldvlaue = $('#myInput').val();
$('#myInput').keyup(function(){
if(oldvlaue!=$('#myInput').val().trim())
{
alert('text has been changed');
}
});
you test this example here
Edit
try to add an EventListner to your text input, I don't know more about it but you can check this Post it may help
Thanks to #Darin because of his/her solution I've marked as the answer, but i have made some small jQuery plugin to achieve the same work named 'txtChgMon'.
(function ($) {
$.fn.txtChgMon = function (func) {
var res = this.each(function () {
txts[0] = { t: this, f: func, oldT: $(this).val(), newT: '' };
});
if (!watchStarted) {
boxWatcher(200);
}
return res;
};
})(jQuery);
var txts = [];
var watchStarted = false;
function boxWatcher(milSecondsBetweenChecks) {
watchStarted = true;
var theLoop = setInterval(function () {
for (var i = 0; i < txts.length; i++) {
txts[i].newT = $(txts[i].t).val();
if (txts[i].newT == txts[i].oldT) {
return; //no change
}
clearInterval(theLoop); //stop looping
txts[i].f(txts[i], txts[i].oldT, txts[i].newT);
txts[i].oldT = $(txts[i].t).val();
boxWatcher(milSecondsBetweenChecks);
return;
}
}, milSecondsBetweenChecks);
}
