Why is the object not moving on clicking the button? - javascript

The object is not moving on clicking the button. Why is it so?
function animate() {
var object = document.getElementById('object').style;
var x = 100;
object.left = x + 'px';
}
#object {
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
right: 20px;
left: 20px;
height: 40px;
width: 80px;
background-color: green;
}

You should not detach style object from DOM element. Also the name of your function conflicts with native Element.animate function, name your function diffrently.
This should work:
function animateX() {
var object = document.getElementById('object');
var x = 100;
object.style.left = x + 'px';
}
#object {
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
right: 20px;
left: 20px;
height: 40px;
width: 80px;
background-color: green;
}
<div id="object" onclick="animateX()"></div>

If we assume that your element with the object id is the button, then all you need to do is attach an event listener to it so that the animate function is called when you click it.
const object = document.getElementById('object');
object.addEventListener('click', animate, false);
Now we just need to rewrite your animate function so that it moves the element associated with the click.
function animate() {
var x = 100;
this.style.left = x + 'px';
}
DEMO
If you don't want your button to be that object, add a button to the HTML:
<button id="button">Click me</button>
then add the event listener to the button:
const button = document.getElementById('button');
button.addEventListener('click', animate, false);
And then revert your animate function back to the way it was. Here I've captured the element only in the object variable, as it makes more sense with the variable name you're using.
function animate() {
const object = document.getElementById('object');
var x = 100;
object.style.left = x + 'px';
}
DEMO
Note: if the browsers with which you're working support template literals the last line of your animate function can be:
object.style.left = `${x}px`;

You would need to include the styling at the end of the statement
function animate() {
var x = 100;
var object = document.getElementById('object').style.left = x + 'px';
}
#object {
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
right: 20px;
left: 20px;
height: 40px;
width: 80px;
background-color: green;
}

Lit Web Component - Trying to select element

I am trying to transform this element into a standard web component using Lit. (https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_image_comparison.asp)
I totally new to Lit and to web components and am struggling to select elements from the shadow DOM. Right now, I am stuck with the var x inside the initComparisons() function. I am aware that the document object does not exist in the shadow dom and must be replaced by renderRoot, however, I am not sure either If I am selecting the elements the right way or what does replace the window object... Do you notice something wrong with this code? I am stuck at the first lines of the initComparisons() function as x always returns null no matter what I do....
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you very much.

connectedCallback() is likely too early to call this.initComparison() as the elements might not have been populated within the shadowroot. That happens on first render so you can grab those elements in firstUpdated() instead.

Hovering over pseudo after element to change the style

I'm trying to create a simple demo where rolling over a pseudo element will change the style of its parent. In other words, I want to be able to roll over the letter e in the top right corner of the image and then display the text content.
I've managed to get it working when rolling over the image itself, but not the pseudo element. I've commented out the working code for rolling over the image itself, and left the incorrect pseudo rollover code uncommented out.
I wonder whether you can actually select pseudo elements in JS as it shows null when trying to select any pseudo element.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks for any help. The code is below:
Codepen: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/NZvdzr
/*document.querySelector('#img-wrap').onmouseover = function() {
document.querySelector('#caption-wrap').style.opacity = 1;
}
document.querySelector('#img-wrap').onmouseout = function() {
document.querySelector('#caption-wrap').style.opacity = 0;
}*/
document.querySelector('#img-wrap:after').onmouseover = function() {
document.querySelector('#caption-wrap').style.opacity = 1;
}
document.querySelector('#img-wrap:after').onmouseout = function() {

You cannot listen to pseudo elements, but you can find out some interesting info via window.getComputedStyle(). Below is a demo.
I'm listening to mouse move on the image element and comparing the coords to see if they fall between the rectangle of the pseudo element.
There is a padding of 2px on each tolerance, you could change that to something else if you want to be more forgiving with the mouse over detection.
CanIUse.com says window.getComputedStyle() is supported by all browsers, but I haven't tested if they all return the proper coordinate information for this to work – you should cross browser test this before using.
var element = document.querySelector('#img-wrap')
element.onmousemove = function(event){
var elementRect = element.getBoundingClientRect()
var pseudo = window.getComputedStyle(element, ':after')
var pseudoRect = {
top: parseFloat(pseudo.top),
left: parseFloat(pseudo.left),
width: parseFloat(pseudo.width),
height: parseFloat(pseudo.height),
}
var mouseX = event.clientX
var mouseY = event.clientY
var yTolTop = elementRect.top + pseudoRect.top - 2
var yTolBot = elementRect.top + pseudoRect.top + pseudoRect.height + 2
var xTolLeft = elementRect.left + pseudoRect.left - 2
var xTolRight = elementRect.left + pseudoRect.left + pseudoRect.width + 2
//console.log(elementRect.top, yTolTop, mouseY, yTolBot, " | ", elementRect.left, xTolLeft, mouseX, xTolRight)
if(mouseY > yTolTop && mouseY < yTolBot && mouseX > xTolLeft && mouseX < xTolRight){
document.querySelector('#caption-wrap').style.opacity = 1;
}else{
document.querySelector('#caption-wrap').style.opacity = 0;
}
}
element.onmouseout = function(){
document.querySelector('#caption-wrap').style.opacity = 0;
}
#img-wrap {
width: 30%;
position: relative;
}
#caption-wrap {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
opacity: 0;
}
img {
width: 100%;
}
#img-wrap:after {
content: 'e';
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
}

(edit: since the JS was getting the rects outside of the mouse move function, if the element was ever moved it would stop working. Now it looks for rects in mouse move so the bug is fixed)

How to make custom follow cursor follow Y axis scroll

I'm using a bit of HTML & CSS on my squarespace site to create a custom follow cursor. I want to just have a floaty circle with no actual cursor displayed. I've gotten it to mostly work, but when my site scrolls the follow cursor doesn't move with the page scroll and just gets stuck at the top.
And that just caused the follow cursor to stop moving with mouse movement entirely, becoming static on the center of the page.
Injecting HTML & CSS on to squarespace site to create a custom follow cursor:
body {
background: #161616;
}
.wrap {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
#ball {
width: 60px;
height: 60px;
background: none;
border: 1px solid grey;
border-radius: 50%;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
pointer-events: none;
}
<body onload="followMouse();">
<div class="wrap">
<div id="ball"></div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var $ = document.querySelector.bind(document);
var $on = document.addEventListener.bind(document);
var xmouse, ymouse;
$on('mousemove', function (e) {
xmouse = e.clientX || e.pageX;
ymouse = e.clientY || e.pageY;
});
var ball = $('#ball');
var x = void 0,
y = void 0,
dx = void 0,
dy = void 0,
tx = 0,
ty = 0,
key = -1;
var followMouse = function followMouse() {
key = requestAnimationFrame(followMouse);
if(!x || !y) {
x = xmouse;
y = ymouse;
} else {
dx = (xmouse - x) * 0.125;
dy = (ymouse - y) * 0.125;
if(Math.abs(dx) + Math.abs(dy) < 0.1) {
x = xmouse;
y = ymouse;
} else {
x += dx;
y += dy;
}
}
ball.style.left = x + 'px';
ball.style.top = y + 'px';
};
</script>
</body>
[EDIT] Great job on updating your question, the demo and the problem are very clear now. Don't worry about your demo not scrolling, I just added a bunch of divs with some height in my demo to simulate that. Here's everything you need to / should change to make it all work:
var followMouse = function followMouse() ... is very strange syntax and I'm not sure what the exact outcome will be.
Either declare the function normally function followMouse() ..., or store it in a variable using either the:
function definition var followMouse = function() ... or
arrow definition var followMouse = () => ...
To simply get it all working you just need to adjust for the current scroll amount of either the document or in my demo's case the element with class ".wrap".
This can be done using the scrollTop member of the object returned by your $() function.
I started by just adding $(".wrap").scrollTop to the ymouse variable in the mousemove listener, but while this works it needs you to move the mouse for the circle to realize it's scrolled off the page.
So instead we just add $(".wrap").scrollTop to the css that is being set to the ball in the last lines of followMouse.
I changed the overflow property from hidden to scroll since that's kind of where the problem is occuring ;)
I've also added cursor: none to your .wrap css so that you get the desired effect of no cursor but your custom one.
var $ = document.querySelector.bind(document);
var $on = document.addEventListener.bind(document);
var followMouse = function() {
key = requestAnimationFrame(followMouse);
if (!x || !y) {
x = xmouse;
y = ymouse;
} else {
dx = (xmouse - x) * 0.125;
dy = (ymouse - y) * 0.125;
if (Math.abs(dx) + Math.abs(dy) < 0.1) {
x = xmouse;
y = ymouse;
} else {
x += dx;
y += dy;
}
}
ball.style.left = x + 'px';
ball.style.top = $(".wrap").scrollTop + y + 'px';
};
var xmouse, ymouse;
var ball = $('#ball');
var x = void 0,
y = void 0,
dx = void 0,
dy = void 0,
tx = 0,
ty = 0,
key = -1;
$on('mousemove', function(e) {
xmouse = e.clientX || e.pageX;
ymouse = e.clientY || e.pageY;
});
body {
background: #161616;
}
.wrap {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
overflow: scroll;
cursor: none;
}
#ball {
width: 60px;
height: 60px;
background: none;
border: 1px solid grey;
border-radius: 50%;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
margin: -10px 0 0 -10px;
pointer-events: none;
}
.makeOverflow {
width: 100px;
height: 300px;
}
<body onload="followMouse();">
<div class="wrap">
<div id="ball"></div>
<div class="makeOverflow"> </div>
<div class="makeOverflow"> </div>
<div class="makeOverflow"> </div>
<div class="makeOverflow"> </div>
</div>
</body>
This will probably be fixed by changing the #ball CSS from being absolutely positioned to a fixed position, then it should scroll down the page with your original js

Drawing lines using RequestAnimationFrame()

I want to draw a horizontal line when the game launches and was able to come up with something that drew the line using requestAnimationFrame() and ctx.stroke().
The problem is that when I attempt to edit the length of the line by changing the values of the end point on the line, the line remains the same length.
If anyone could take a look at it and explain what is going on I would really appreciate it.

There are many problems with your code.
You need to read up on using the canvas. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRenderingContext2D will help.
Only call requestAnimationFrame once per frame. Putting it inside a while loop will just start 1000's of frames fighting for display refresh.
Start paths with ctx.beginPath();
Clear the canvas using ctx.clearRect(0,0,width,height)
Set canvas size via attributes not via style properties.
The first argument to the function called by requestAnimationFrame is the time. eg drawTop(time)
See comments for more info.
ctx.canvas.width = 100; // << set the canvas size via canvas attributes not style
ctx.canvas.height = 100;
var thenTop = performance.now(); // to get time.
requestAnimationFrame(drawTop); // <<< start the render loop with request, dont call direct
function drawTop(nowTop) { // << time passed to render call
requestAnimationFrame(drawTop); // <<< put call here not in loop
ctxTop.clearRect(0, 0, ctxTop.canvas.width, ctxTop.canvas.height); // <<< clear the canvas
var i = 32;
while (i < topLineEnd) {
// requestAnimationFrame(drawTop); // <<<<<<< Not here
i++;
elapsedTop = nowTop - thenTop;
if (elapsedTop > fpsIntervalTop && i < topLineEnd) {
thenTop = nowTop - (elapsedTop % fpsIntervalTop);
ctxTop.lineWidth = 20;
ctxTop.strokeStyle = "black";
ctxTop.beginPath(); // <<<<<< To start a new path
ctxTop.moveTo(topLineStart, 80);
ctxTop.lineTo(topLineIncrement, 80);
ctxTop.stroke();
topLineStart += 1;
} else {
return;
}
}

Using two of the same javascripts

I've been trying to create a page with several before and after images (Using a slider to swap between the two).
However when I add the second piece of JavaScript code, it breaks the page. Even if I try to amend the (var) code to be unique from the previous script
In all honesty I don't quite understand what the JavaScript is doing which is why I'm probably unable to Google the solution. Any help would be appreciated, if you could try to explain in as much detail what I need to do and explain any specific terms that would help me develop further.
You can see all my code on the link (and below): http://codepen.io/sn0wm0nkey/pen/DakbA
var inkbox = document.getElementById("inked-painted");
var colorbox = document.getElementById("colored");

Howard's solution works but can be improved even more to remove duplication.
Use classes instead of Ids
Find the elements inside the div that is receiving the mousemove instead of passing them in
Don't duplicate the CSS
function onMouseMove(e) {
var inked = this.getElementsByTagName("img")[0];
var colorbox = this.querySelector('.colored');
var rect = inked.getBoundingClientRect();
var position = ((e.pageX - rect.left) / inked.offsetWidth) * 100;
if (position <= 100) {
colorbox.style.width = position + "%";
}
}
function trackLocation(el) {
el.addEventListener("mousemove", onMouseMove, false);
el.addEventListener("touchstart", onMouseMove, false);
el.addEventListener("touchmove", onMouseMove, false);
}
var wrappers = document.querySelectorAll('.inked-painted');
for (var i = 0; i < wrappers.length; i++) {
trackLocation(wrappers[i]);
}

First, Java != JavaScript. They are two very different languages.
Second, your issue is that your second function is named the same as your first function. The second one essentially overwrites the first one, so the first doesn't exist any longer. Simply use a different name for your second function, and your code works just fine.
However, it would be better to find a way to reuse your first function, instead of having two almost identical functions.
Here is what you are doing with your JavaScript how it is currently written.
Declare and assign variables inkbox, colorbox, fillerImage
Add event handlers
Create a function in the global scope by the name of trackLocation
Declare and assign variables inkbox1, colorbox1, fillerImage1
Add event handlers
Overwrite the trackLocation function in the global scope
All of this is being done synchronously, just as I have it listed here. So, when an event fires on inkbox, it calls the new function that overwrote the original.
Another problem that I see (unless you omitted some code) is you have some variables that are not defined, which will cause a problem within your function.
function trackLocation (e) {
// inked is undefined
var rect = inked.getBoundingClientRect();
// inked is undefined
var position = ((e.pageX - rect.left) / inked.offsetWidth)*100;
if (position <= 100) { colorbox.style.width = position+"%"; }
}
You'll need to rewrite your function to accept local variables like this:
function trackLocation (e, inked, colorbox) {
var rect = inked.getBoundingClientRect();
var position = ((e.pageX - rect.left) / inked.offsetWidth)*100;
if (position <= 100) { colorbox.style.width = position+"%"; }
}
Now this one function can be reused in all of your event handlers, like this:
function trackLocation (e, inked, colorbox) {
var rect = inked.getBoundingClientRect();
var position = ((e.pageX - rect.left) / inked.offsetWidth)*100;
if (position <= 100) { colorbox.style.width = position+"%"; }
}
var inkbox = document.getElementById("inked-painted");
var colorbox = document.getElementById("colored");
var fillerImage = document.getElementById("inked");
inkbox.addEventListener("mousemove", function (e) { trackLocation(e, inkbox, colorbox); });
inkbox.addEventListener("touchstart", function (e) { trackLocation(e, inkbox, colorbox); });
inkbox.addEventListener("touchmove", function (e) { trackLocation(e, inkbox, colorbox); });
var inkbox1 = document.getElementById("inked1-painted");
var colorbox1 = document.getElementById("colored1");
var fillerImage1 = document.getElementById("inked1");
inkbox1.addEventListener("mousemove", function (e) { trackLocation(e, inkbox1, colorbox1); });
inkbox1.addEventListener("touchstart", function (e) { trackLocation(e, inkbox1, colorbox1); });
inkbox1.addEventListener("touchmove", function (e) { trackLocation(e, inkbox1, colorbox1); });
