Setting width to span using JavsScript not working - javascript

I am trying to dynamically change width of a span based on the content of the span, So my app has a lot of span row-wise and the use modify content of the spans. On change of content I am trying to uniform the width of each span to be equal to the maxWidth of all the spans combined.
i.e spanWidths = [ '50px', '34px', '56px', '87px' ]
I need to convert all these spans into -> [ '87px', '87px', '87px', '87px' ]
The box model for the span :
As you can see the width is set to 87px on the span yet, on inspecting it is weirdly 57.98px which is inclusive of the border, padding and content.
The css for the span : (I am using box-sizing: border-box throughout)
.annotation-speaker {
display: inline-block;
font-size: 14px;
line-height: 25px;
background-color: rgb(224, 239, 241, 0.5);
height: 25px;
padding: 0px 5px 6px 5px;
margin-top: 5px;
border-radius: 4px;
font-weight: 500;
letter-spacing: 0.7px;
overflow: hidden;
text-align: center;
}
I am confused as to how should I be calculating the spanWidths array having the widths of all the spans after on modifies the content in the span.
This is what I am currently doing :
const css = getComputedStyle($speakerBox); // $speakerBox is my span
const r = $speakerBox.getBoundingClientRect();
const w = $speakerBox.scrollWidth + parseInt(css.paddingLeft) + parseInt(css.paddingRight);
maxSpeakerTagWidth = Math.max(maxSpeakerTagWidth, w);
Here r.width and $speakerBox.scrollWidth are different too! Am confused as to which one should I even consider!
And to make all span's the same width as maxSpeakerTagWidth :
$speakerBox.style.width = maxSpeakerTagWidth + 'px';
This isn't working though!

I fiddled a bit on JSFiddle (:P), seem to have found myself a solution, but am still not able to see it work on my project, but work's just fine on JSFiddle!

Yet again, CSS being problematic again

So basically this is Day 3 (other days, I pretty much did nothing to complete the game) of making a game from HTML5. So I'm making a moves system right now, and I guess I'm doing well? (mainly because I'm not sure if I provided the user with too many moves...) But the thing about it is that, I'm kind of having ANOTHER styling issue.
As you can see in the image: I've CLEARLY set dimensions up for the headerDisplay class/id, but NO, it goes out of the div's dimensions and even goes on the grid. I'm also aiming for the time and moves text to be stuck right on top of the grid, similarly to how the word bank is stuck to the bottom of the grid.
I was also aiming for a button that says refresh right under the word bank, however no matter what I tried, the button would just be right the score text, which looks like this:
When I am aiming for this:
Code:
<div class="content" id="content">
<div class="headerDisplay" id="headerDisplay">
</div>
<div class="gameArea" id="gameArea">
</div>
<div class="wordBank" id="wordBank">
</div>
<div class="bottomMenu" id="bottomMenu">
</div>
</div>
::before,
::after {
box-sizing: border-box;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.content {
display: grid;
grid-template-rows: repeat(3, max-content);
margin-block: 1em;
margin-inline: auto;
width: 512px;
}
.bottomMenu {
font-size: 24px;
text-align: right;
}
.wordBank {
border: 2.5px solid #000;
border-radius: 5px;
display: flex;
font-size: 1.6em;
min-height: 3em;
justify-content: space-between;
padding: 0.25em;
}
.wordBank span:nth-child(even) {
align-self: end;
}
.gameArea {
font-size: 0;
justify-self: center;
max-width: 100%;
}
.cell {
border: 1px solid black;
width: 50px;
font-size: 1rem;
height: 50px;
display: inline-block;
}
.headerDisplay {
width: 100%;
height: 76.8px;
text-align: right;
font-size: 1.6em;
}
let score = 0;
const headerDisplay = document.getElementById("headerDisplay")
const bottomMenu = document.getElementById("bottomMenu");
const wordBank = document.getElementById("wordBank")
const gameArea = document.getElementById("gameArea")
const rows = document.getElementsByClassName("gridRow");
const cells = document.getElementsByClassName("cell");
const words = [ // snippet
"ability",
"able",
"about",
"above",
"abroad",
"absence",
"absent",
"absolute",
"accept",
"accident",
"accord",
"account",
"accuse",
"accustom",
"ache",
"across",
"act"
]
let selectedWords = [];
bottomMenu.innerHTML = "<p>Score: " + score;
bottomMenu.innerHTML += "<button>Refresh"
while (selectedWords.length < 5) {
const selectedWord = words[Math.floor(Math.random() * words.length)];
if (selectedWord.length <= 9) {
wordBank.innerHTML += "<span>" + selectedWord + "</span>"
selectedWords.push(selectedWord);
}
}
let longestWord = selectedWords.reduce((a, b) => a.length < b.length ? b : a, "")
let charCount = longestWord.length
var moves = charCount * 5
headerDisplay.innerHTML += "<p>Time: "
headerDisplay.innerHTML += "<p>Moves: " + moves
function makeRows(rowNum) {
for (let r = 0; r < rowNum; r++) {
let row = document.createElement("div");
gameArea.appendChild(row).className = "gridRow";
}
}
function makeColumns(cellNum) {
for (let i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
for (let j = 0; j < cellNum; j++) {
let newCell = document.createElement("div");
rows[j].appendChild(newCell).className = "cell";
}
}
}
function defaultGrid() {
makeRows(charCount);
makeColumns(charCount);
}
defaultGrid();
To fix header you need to set its height to fit content, so it will be over your grid even if you change it later:
.headerDisplay {
width: 100%;
height: content-fit; /* previous: 76.8px */
text-align: right;
font-size: 1.6em;
}
And to fix bottom menu you need to add flexbox:
.bottomMenu {
font-size: 24px;
text-align: right;
display: flex; /* new */
flex-direction: row-reverse; /* new */
justify-content: space-between; /* new */
align-items: center; /* new */
}
For the button, you could try this:
button {
position: relative;
right: 400px;
bottom: 50px;
transform: scale(2,2)
}

javascript on a webpage displaying text wrongly

I have JS code on a webpage that loads questions in from mysql db and displays the text . What happens is that it cuts off words at the end of the line and continues the word on the next line at the start. So all text across the screen starts/ends at the same point.
This seems to be the code where it displays the text.
For example the text will look like at the end of a line 'cont' and then on next line at the start 'inue'.
How do i fix this?

};

</html>
The background is red on purpose so that you can see how, even though the "welcome" div should be rendered over top the background, it is not being rendered until the very last second after the transition is completed and 100% of the element is on the screen.
I am stumped, and I'm not sure why this is since HTML usually doesn't seem to behave this way. Even when I highlight the element in Inspect Element, the Inspector doesn't show me where the element is on the screen until the final moment when it is rendered.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I look forward to hearing your feedback!
The problem here is that your DIVs are placed under each other and while one is moving horizontally, the next div is still underneath of it until first one is completely out of the way (just like Jenga game in reverse).
To solve this, you can try add display: flex, to place them horizontally instead:
var mainDiv, welcomeDiv;
var transitionSeconds = 0.5;
var isTransitioning = false;
function NextButtonClick() {
if (!isTransitioning) {
isTransitioning = true;
i = 0;
thisInterval = setInterval(function() {
mainDiv.style.marginLeft = (100 / i) - 101 + "vw";
i++;
if (i == 100) {
clearInterval(thisInterval);
mainDiv.style.marginLeft = "-100vw";
isTransitioning = false;
}
}, transitionSeconds);
}
}
window.onload = function() {
mainDiv = document.getElementById("main");
welcomeDiv = document.getElementById("welcome");
var arrowButton = document.getElementById("arrowButton");
var arrowButtonX, arrowButtonY;
var arrowButtonGlowDistance = 100;
arrowButtonX = arrowButton.getBoundingClientRect().left + arrowButton.getBoundingClientRect().width / 2; //center
arrowButtonY = arrowButton.getBoundingClientRect().top + arrowButton.getBoundingClientRect().height / 2; //center
document.onmousemove = function(e) {
x = e.clientX;
y = e.clientY;
};

localStorage does not save/show items

I do my ToDo list. (I learn vanilla JS). And I have some problem with saving some items to localStorage. When I use Google chrome(F12), I see undefiend. Maybe, I do not save correctly to localStorage. I tried to change var task to array, but it does not help. Pleas, show me my mistakes. I know, my code must be rewritten, it is my first code on JS.

When you add an element to the page, at a certain point you do this
task = document.createTextNode(addField);
Since task is a global variable (you declared it at the top), you're overshadowing it with the TextNode you're creating, so that when you then call toLocal and you do
forTask = task.innerHTML;
task has no innerHTML attribute, so it returns undefined.
Also, for some reason, you call toLocal again at the end of newElement. It's not the problem but it's something you may want to think about. I'm not sure it's what you want.
#TakayashiHarano gave a couple of hints to solve this, but I'm not sure what you want is just to have the latest element in the local storage. So I would re-write toLocal so that it takes a string (the text of the item) as input, writes it at the end of a JSON array (already populated with what was in the local storage previously), and puts the array back in local storage.
function toLocal(toAdd) {
let storage = localStorage.getItem('forLocal');
if (storage === null) {
storage = [];
} else {
storage = JSON.parse(storage);
}
storage.push(toAdd);
localStorage.setItem('forLocal', JSON.stringify(storage));
}
Then you should modify the part of the code that reads the local storage (the one at the end) to basically simulate adding a new item as you would do when creating a new task, but for each item in the parsed JSON coming from local storage.
To be fair, your code needs a good dose of rewriting to achieve this, so I'll just leave you with this as an exercise.
The following changes are needed.
1 - Set up two variables separably for the following task variable.
var task = document.querySelector("ul");
task = document.createTextNode(addField);
For example, "ulElement" for the first one, and "task" for the second one.
This is to prevent to override the previously defined value.
2 - Move the timing for obtaining the ul element and load localStorage.
function onReady() {
ulElement = document.querySelector("ul");
if(localStorage.getItem("forLocal")){
ulElement.innerHTML = localStorage.getItem("forLocal");
}
}
window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', onReady, true);
To ensure the element existence, document.querySelector() should be called after the DOMContentLoaded event fired.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/DOMContentLoaded_event
3 - Delete toLocal(); in the end of the newElement() function.
As far as my testing code, there is no need this statement.

Can I use CSS calc within Javascript?

Can I use the css calc() function when setting positions in JavaScript?
ePopup.style.top = "calc(100px - 1.5em)";
Yes, calc() will work when setting styles in javascript.
Working Example:
var innerDiv = document.getElementsByClassName('inner-div')[0];
function growInnerDiv() {
innerDiv.style.setProperty('width', 'calc(100% + 224px)');
}
innerDiv.addEventListener('click', growInnerDiv, false);
.outer-div {
display: inline-block;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
padding: 12px;
border: 1px solid rgb(255,0,0);
background-color: rgb(255,255,0);
}
.inner-div {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
color: rgb(255, 255, 255);
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
line-height: 100px;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
background-color: rgb(255,0,0);
cursor: pointer;
transition: all 0.5s linear;
}
<div class="outer-div">
<div class="inner-div">Click Me</div>
<div>
There are some interesting things that happen when you use calc with the same type of units, e.g. 10px + 5px. It gets simplified to 15px by the process that puts it onto the element.
So, to expand on rounin's great answer, here's some examples of that behaviour in action:
function growDiv(e) {
const thisDiv = e.target;
const x = 100;
const y = 42;
const z = 69;
let widthVal;
if (thisDiv.id == "simplifies") {
widthVal = `calc(${y + z}px + ${x}px + ${y}px)`;
} else if (thisDiv.id == "mixed-units") {
widthVal = `calc(0em + ${y + z}px + ${x * 2}px + ${y}px)`;
} else if (thisDiv.id == "variables") {
thisDiv.style.setProperty("--x", x + "px");
thisDiv.style.setProperty("--y", y + "px");
thisDiv.style.setProperty("--z", z + "px");
widthVal = "calc((var(--x) * 2) + var(--y) + (var(--z) * 2))";
}
thisDiv.style.width = widthVal;
thisDiv.innerHTML =
`input: ${widthVal}<br>style:${thisDiv.style.width}`;
}
document
.querySelectorAll("div")
.forEach((el) => el.addEventListener("click", growDiv, false));
.inner-div {
background-color: hotpink;
color: white;
font-weight: bold;
height: 100px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
text-align: center;
transition: all 0.5s linear;
width: 100px;
}
<div class="inner-div" id="simplifies">simplifies<br />1) Click Me</div>
<div class="inner-div" id="mixed-units">mixed-units<br />2) Click Me</div>
<div class="inner-div" id="variables">variables<br />3) Click Me</div>
Div 1 has all the same units, and therefore simplifies.
Div 2 has a token 0em unit, which makes no difference to the calculation, but forces the full expression to come through.
Div 3 is my favourite because it's a little bit self-documenting. I do this because I'm a bit forgetful and it lets me see why I set that element to 728.3 high, not just that I did.
