I have some jquery that will, when a button is clicked, switch a class from a button to a different class (i.e. on click switch class from #testButton from .first to .second with an image toggle to show it works). The first click works well and it toggles the image, but the second click does not do anything. It seems as if it is not recognizing the new class. Here is a fiddle.
https://jsfiddle.net/myfb44yu/
This is the problematic javascript.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.first').click(function(){
alert('works');
$('#testButton').toggleClass('first', 'second');
});
$('.second').click(function(){
alert("works");
$('#testButton').toggleClass('second', 'first');
});
});
The interesting thing is that it works when I use an alert() to check but not when I try to change an img src.
Your main issue here is a syntax error in regards to your .toggleClass, but seeing as others have addressed that, I'd like to point out that you should consider re-thinking how you apply your listeners - just as good habit moving forward.
An overview of jQuery Event Bindings
Think of the elements on your page as items in a store. You're an employee, and your manager says "Go put a red tag on anything in the toys department", and so you do. The next day, he puts 10 new toys in the toy department, and says to you "Why don't all the toys have red tags on them?" He then moves one of the toys to the clothing section and asks you, "Why does this item have a red tag on it?" It's simple. You put the red tags on anything in the toys department when he told you to do it - things got moved around afterwards.
The toys in this example would be your .first and .second elements.
This is how jQuery event bindings work - they only apply to elements that satisfied the selector at the time the event was initialized.
So, if you do $('.myClass').click();, then put .myClass on five buttons - none of those buttons will call this function, as they didn't have listeners put on them.
Similarly, if you put a listener on an element using class, but then remove the class from that element, it will maintain the bound event.
The Solution
$(document).on("click", ".first", function() { } );
This is known as event delegation.
In continuing with my analogy from before, this would be the equivalent of skipping tagging the items altogether, and instead just deciding whether or not they're a toy when the customer brings them to the cash register.
Instead of putting the listener on specific elements, we've put it on the entire page. By using ".first" as the second parameter (which takes a selector), the function will only be executed if the element has class first.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: As I was typing, JHecht left a good answer that points out the same issue I outlined above.
N number of elements can have the same class name ,so that's the reason if your trying to search it as $('.classname') returns an array ,so that's the reason your code is not working.class selector
Id is unique,each element should have a single id . In your code button has two id's and for the same button your trying to toggle first and second,you need not have two separate events for first and second
instead you can write as following
check this snippet
$(document).ready(function() {
var firstElements = $('.first')
var first = firstElements[0];
var secondElements = $('.second');
var second = secondElements[0]
$("#testButton").click(function() {
alert('works');
$(this).toggleClass('first').toggleClass('second');
});
});
.first {
color: red;
}
.second {
color: green;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<img src="img/images.jpeg" alt="" id="testImage">
<div id="testDiv">
<button type="button" id='testButton' class='first'>Hi</button>
</div>
Hope it helps
Ho about this solution. Hope it helps!
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#testButton").click(function(){
if($(this).prop("class") === "first"){
alert('first');
$(this).removeClass("first").addClass("second");
}
else if($(this).prop("class") === "second"){
alert("second");
$(this).removeClass("second").addClass("first");
}
});
});
.first{
color: red;
}
.second{
color: blue;
}

<img src="img/images.jpeg" alt="" id="testImage">
<div id="testDiv">
<button type="button" id='testButton' class='first'>Hi</button>
</div>
I hope that what I am about to say makes more sense than I feel it does.
Your issue is that when you assign the click events, there is not currently an element that has a class of .second.
Also, your code is wrong. toggleClass accepts a few arguments, the first is a string of classes, the second is an optional parameter to check whether or not to toggle the classes on or off.
A way to accomplish what you want without changing a whole lot of code is event delegation, shown below.
$(function() {
$(document).on('click', '.btn-first,.btn-second', function() {
//here we are adding the click event on the document object, and telling it that we only want to delegate this event to an object that matches the classes of .btn-first or .btn-second.
//Note: to those saying "why not just do it on the .btn class an avoid having to do this", it is so he can see what delegation looks like. But you are correct, with this markup it would be better to simply add the click event on the .btn class.
$(this).toggleClass('btn-first btn-second');
});
});
.btn {
padding: 4px 8px;
border-radius: 3px;
border: 1px solid grey;
}
.btn-first {
background-color: green;
border-color: green;
}
.btn-second {
background-color: orange;
border-color: orange
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<img src="img/images.jpeg" alt="" id="testImage">
<div id="testDiv">
<button type="button" id='testButton' class='btn btn-first'>Hi</button>
</div>
A combination of javascript, CSS and HTML to toggle the class of #testButton when any element of class "first" or "second" is clicked, including the test button itself. The posted code was changed to supply JQuery's .toggleClass method with a space separated list of class names. Click "run snippet" to test the effect.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.first').click(function(){
$('#testButton').toggleClass('first second');
});
$('.second').click(function(){
$('#testButton').toggleClass('first second');
});
});
.first { border: thick outset green;}
.second { border: thick inset red;}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<p class="first">This paragraph has first class</p>
<p class="second">This paragraph has second class</p>
<button type="button" id="testButton" class="first">this button starts out first class</div>
The script can then be simplified by combining multiple class names in a single selector, leaving just:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.first, .second').click(function(){
$('#testButton').toggleClass('first second');
});
});
Make a neutral class that the buttons both share (.btn).
Then add one of the state classes to each button (.first or .second).
Delegate the click event to the neutral class only ($('.btn').on('click',...).
Then toggle both state classes on this ($(this).toggleClass('first second');)
The images change by CSS, each button has 2 images which alternate between display:none/block according to the button's state class.
There is an example with the images outside of buttons and another example that doesn't toggle classes around.
SNIPPET
$('.btn').on('click', function() {
$(this).toggleClass('first second');
});
/* OR */
$('.alt').on('click', function() {
$('.img').toggle();
});
.first > .one {
display: block;
}
.first > .two {
display: none;
}
.second > .one {
display: none;
}
.second > .two {
display: block;

.first + .one {

}
.first + .one + .two {

.second + .one {
display: none;
}
.second + .one + .two {
display: block;
}

Ok so I have a div that contains a canvas and a span which contains an image. I want it such that if the user hovers over or focuses on the div that the image inside of the span will appear. The image wil be invisible otherwise.
Long story short I want to have a canvas with a red 'X' on the corner that is only visible when the canvas is active
$('image-canvas').hover(function() {
$('delete-image').addClass('active');
}, function() {
$('delete-image').removeClass('active');
})
.delete-image {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
}
.delete-image>img {
width: 32px;
visibility: hidden;
}
.delete-image.active>img {
width: 32px;
visibility: visible;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="canvas-container" tabindex="1">
<canvas id="imageCanvas"></canvas>
<span class="delete-image">
<img src="file:///E:/Apps/Emoji-App/emojis/icons/if_erase_delete_remove_wipe_out_181387.png"/>
</span>
</div>
The hover event fires just fine but the image refuses to toggle visibility. Any help?
When you use a class within your selector, write it like this:
$('.myDiv')
When you use an ID within your selector, write it like this:
$('#myDiv')
For further informations, check out jQuery's learning center website.
Seems like you have misspelled or have not specified the jQuery selector type (class . or id #). Please try this:
$('#imageCanvas').hover(function () {
$('.delete-image').addClass('active');
}, function () {
$('.delete-image').removeClass('active');
})
See here .
$("#control").mouseover(function(){
$('#img').show();
});
$("#control").mouseout(function(){
$('#img').hide();
});
#img{
display:none;
}
#control{
margin-bottom:10px;
padding:5px;
background-color:#eee;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id='control'>Show/Hide</div>
<img src='https://cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/stackoverflow/img/404.svg' id='img'>
The question is not well-phrased, so I ain't sure I totally understood what you wanted.
When you try to select by class, don't forget the dot '.'
$('image-canvas').hover(function () {
$('.delete-image').addClass('active');
}, function () {
$('.delete-image').removeClass('active');
})
When using functions 'addClass', 'removeClass', 'toggleClass', etc. - you don't use the '.' sign because it is a function that refers only to classes. On the other hand, when using jQuery selector $(' ') or vanilla querySelector(' '), you should declare what kind of attribute you are selecting by, those will be '#' for ID, '.' for Class, and if you want to select by anything else you can use $('*[anyattribute=anyvalue]'), in your clase it could be $('span[class=delete-image]').
Good luck
I'm trying to make a toggle which works, but every element I click on creates a stack of these showed elements. Instead I'm trying to hide everything and display only element that I clicked on. Now I can only hide it when I click on the same element twice, which is not what I want. I want to click on one and hide previous ones that were showing.
.totalpoll-choice-image-2 is a bunch of images that always has to be shown. They are what the user clicks on to display hidden description under each image. That description shows up when I click on .totalpoll-choice-image-2. There are 5 images with that class. The next image I click on, I want to hide the previous description box.
My code:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
var element = document.getElementsByClassName("totalpoll-choice-image-2");
var elements = Array.prototype.slice.call(Array.from( element ) );
console.log(elements);
jQuery(element).each(function(item) {
jQuery(this).unbind('click').click(function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
var id = jQuery(this).attr("data-id");
console.log(this);
//jQuery("#" + id).css({"display": 'block !important'});
//document.getElementById(id).style.setProperty( 'display', 'block', 'important' );
var descriptionContainer = document.getElementById(id);
var thiss = jQuery(this);
console.log(thiss);
console.log(jQuery(descriptionContainer).not(thiss).hide());
jQuery(descriptionContainer).toggleClass("show");
});
})
})
You can attach event handlers to a group of DOM elements at once with jQuery. So in this case, mixing vanilla JS with jQuery isn't doing you any favors - though it is possible.
I threw together this little example of what it sounds like you're going for.
The script itself is very simple (shown below). The classes and IDs are different, but the idea should be the same:
// Assign click handlers to all items at once
$('.img').click(function(e){
// Turn off all the texts
$('.stuff').hide();
// Show the one you want
$('#' + $(e.target).data('id')).show();
})
https://codepen.io/meltingchocolate/pen/NyzKMp
You may also note that I extracted the ID from the data-id attribute using the .data() method, and attached the event listener with the .click() method. This is the typical way to apply event handlers across a group of jQuery objects.
From what I understood based on your comments you want to show only description of image that has been clicked.
Here is my solution
$('.container').on('click', 'img', function() {
$(this).closest('.container').find('.image-description').addClass('hidden');
$(this).siblings('p').removeClass('hidden');
});
https://jsfiddle.net/rtsj6r41/
Also please mind your jquery version, because unbind() is deprecated since 3.0
You can use event delegation so that you only add your event handler once to the parent of your images. This is usually the best method for keeping work the browser has to do down. Adding and removing classes is a clean method for show and hide, because you can see what is happening by looking at your html along with other benefits like being easily able to check if an item is visible with .hasClass().

I have so far able to remove each appened elements using .remove() function of JQuery. my problem is the delete button is always showing on the first element.
I want to hide the delete button on first element and show the delete button when I append a new element.
I have set the delete button on the first element to
.delete-button:first-child{
display:none;
}
in my css but all succeeding appends do not show the delete button..
how can I do this with JQuery can it be done using CSS only?
li:first-child .delete-button { display:none }
<ul>
<li>
First <button class="delete-button">Delete</button>
</li>
<li>
Second <button class="delete-button">Delete</button>
</li>
</ul>
Making assumptions on your markup since none was provided. You can accomplish it using css.
My interpretation of your requirement: If there is only one item, do not show a delete button; if there are multiple items, show a delete button for every item.
Your attempt didn't work because .delete-button:first-child selects all elements with the delete-button class that are also the first-child of their parent element. Presumably this would be all of your buttons.
You can instead use the :only-of-type selector on the elements that contain the delete buttons, e.g., assuming they have the item class:
.item:only-of-type .delete-button { display: none; }
Or if they are li elements:
li:only-of-type .delete-button { display: none; }
That way if the item/li/whatever is the only item then its delete button will be hidden automatically, but as soon as you add additional items the delete button will be shown automatically for all items.
Here's a simple demo with a bit of JS to mock up the add and delete functionality:
$("#parent").on("click", ".delete-button", function() {
$(this).parent().remove();
});
$(".add-button").on("click", function() {
$("#parent").children().first().clone().appendTo("#parent");
});
.item:only-of-type .delete-button { display: none; }
.item { margin: 3px; padding: 2px; width: 100px; border: thin black solid; }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<button class="add-button">Add Item</button>
<div id="parent">
<div class="item">
<button class="delete-button">Delete</button>
<div>An item</div>
</div>
</div>
You can try,
div ul:not(:first-child) {
.delete-button{
display:none;
}
}
You might wanna consider browser compatibility before using CSS - Browser support for CSS :first-child and :last-child
Having said that, With jQuery you can write an event handler to change css of all the child elements except the last.
Consider this example from jQuery: How to listen for DOM changes?
$("element-root").bind("DOMSubtreeModified", "CustomHandler");
Yes, Its possible by css only. I hope this snippet helps.
$(document).on('click','#AppendList', function(){
$("ul").append('<li>List <button class="delete-button">Delete</button></li>');
})
li .delete-button { display:none }
li:last-child .delete-button { display: inline-block;}

<li>
First <button class="delete-button">Delete</button>

I'm working on a Facebook reaction bar so it is pretty hard to copy the code here because it has a lot of events binded but all of you got facebook so if you want to check it by yourself - please do it.
The thing is that I managed to move the reaction bar under the react root and now I wanted to make the clicked reaction counter change the background color of itself to green.
And everything is working almost good excluding one thing: it is one click behind. To make you understand better I recorded little example how it looks. The red pulse ring appears when I click: https://vid.me/HqYp
Here is the changing code:
$(this).find('div._iu-[role="toolbar"]').bind('click',function(){
$(this).find('p.counter').each(function(){$(this).css('background-color','#48649F');});
$(this).find('span[aria-pressed="true"]').find('p.counter').css('background-color','green');
});
$(this) is div[id*="post"] so in $(this) I'm getting div with the whole post.
I thought that maybe I should use a callback function after changing-every-counter-to-default-color function but I don't know am I right and if it's right solution.
Thanks from above. (:
You can probably simplify this a bit. Although without the html structure I can't know for sure how the layout of the function works with respect to the event origin. Also I am not sure when the aria-pressed is set to true so I made the function a bit more generic. You simply add a data attribute to target the span you want to be targeted by the click.
<div class="_lu-" role="toolbar" data-target=".facebook-counter">
Later in your javascript you do the following
var $t = $(this);
var $t.target = $(this).data('target');
$t.on('click','div._lu-[role="toolbar"]', function() {
$t.find($t.target).css({
'background-color':'green'
}).siblings().css({'background-color','#48649F'});
});
This code is assuming first that your spans are in the same container, and second that the first $(this) refers to the parent container of this whole toolbar, and last that you have put data-target="" attributes with selectors for the appropriate target you want to affect.
This is a sample:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.toolbar').on('click','.toolbar-item .icon', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
if(!this.$) this.$ = $(this);
if(!this.parent) this.parent = this.$.parent();
if(!this.counter) this.counter = this.$.siblings('.counter');
this.parent.addClass('selected').siblings('.selected').removeClass('selected');
var count = this.counter.data('value');
count++;
this.counter.data('value',count);
this.counter.html(count);
});
});
.toolbar {
font-size:0;
text-align:center;
}
.toolbar-item .icon {
background:#FFF;
padding:30px;
border:1px solid #AAA;
border-radius:100%;
margin:0 20%;
transition:0.8s ease all;
}
.selected .icon {
background:#369;
}
.toolbar-item .counter {
background:#E0E0E0;
margin:0 10px;
transition:0.4s ease background;
}
.selected .counter {
background:#509050;
}
.toolbar-item {
font-size:10pt;
width:25%;
display:inline-block;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="toolbar">
<div class="toolbar-item">
<div class="icon">Like</div>
<div class="counter" data-value="0">0</div>
</div>
<div class="toolbar-item">

As of jQuery 1.7 they introduced the .on('click', function().... method. Try that instead and see if you get the same results.
Quick answer without having tested or the time to test your code. I recently had a performance issue with a nested function, so maybe look at that second line with the .each() method.
I have a parent <div>, #amwcontentwrapper, which has a series of divs within it with their own classes and ids.
I want to use jQuery to select these child divs, and IF they have the class .amwhidden, do nothing, but if not, remove the .amwshown class and add the .amwhidden class.
This is what I have so far, but it is not working. I think it may be my selecting of the child divs within the parent.
Can anybody see any obvious problems? Thanks for your help.
if ($('#amwcontentwrapper > div').hasClass('amwhidden')){
} else {
$('#amwcontentwrapper > div').fadeIn(600, function(){
$('#amwcontentwrapper > div').removeClass('amwshown');
$('#amwcontentwrapper > div').addClass('amwhidden');
});
}
And here is the basic html that I am using:
<div class="amwshown" id="amwintro">
Intro Section, which should have the 'amwshown' class removed, and the
'amwhidden' class added, when the jQuery runs. Currently, this does not happen.
</div>
UPDATE: Using War10ck's solution in the comments below (i.e. $('#amwcontentwrapper > div.amwshown')) I have managed to get the classes changing as I wished. However, those which have had the .amwshown class removed and .amwhidden class added still show on the page, despite the CSS looking like this:
.amwhidden {
display:none;
}
.amwshown {
display:block;
}
Looking at the Dev Tools, it seems that, when the jQuery is run (on a click event) the classes are changing, but any classes which are having the .amwshown class added (thus displaying them on the page) are also having the a <style> tag added to them which makes them display:block;
When I then press another button, which should hide the aformentioned <div> to make way for another one, the class is being changed to .amwhidden, but that <style> tag is not being deleted, so even though it has the .amwhidden class, it is still on the page.
I've created a JSFiddle here, if anybody still wants to help!

You can use not to remove the elements you do not want, like this:
$('#amwcontentwrapper > div').not('.amwhidden')
.removeClass('amwshown')
.addClass('amwhidden');
And work with that.
Try this
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#amwcontentwrapper").children().each(function(elem, x) {
if ($(x).attr("class") == "amwhidden") {
alert($(x).attr("class"));
$(x).removeClass("amwhidden").addClass("amwshow");
alert($(x).attr("class"));
}
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="amwcontentwrapper">
<div class="amwhidden"></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
You can try each as follow,
$("#amwcontentwrapper div").each(function(){
if($(this).hasClass('amwhidden'))
//DO something
else
//DO something
});
Thank you for all help, it has prompted some brainstorming which has solved this issue.
Instead of adding the .amwhidden class and removing the .amwhidden class using jQuery, I have just created a .amwsection class, which all the sections belong to which has an initial display value of none. So far, so good; all of the sections are not there when you load up the page.
Then I use the .css jQuery function to change the display:none to display:block when the corresponding button is clicked, and changing all other .amwsections to display:none. This works just fine, but the effect is quite abrupt; there is no fading in, as you would get if you used the .animate function. .animate, however, does not work with the display value.
.fadeOut and .fadeIn to the rescue! By wrapping the .css change in these, I can create a fading in/out effect and can still use the display value.
Here is one example of this code.
The #buybutton is the button to be pressed.
#amwintro is just something which appears when the page loads - it will now be set to display:none if this is the first button pressed.
The .amwsection are all of the hidden sections. This portion of the code just resets all of them. This and the #amwintro section happen very quickly (1/100th of a second) to keep response time good.
The #amwbuy is the specific section that I want to reveal. As you can see, this fades in over a longer period.
Currently only tested in Chrome, but I think I've got it!
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#buybutton').click(function() {
$('#amwintro').fadeOut(1, function() {
$(this).css({
display:'none',
});
});
$('.amwsection').fadeOut(1, function() {
$(this).css({
display:'none',
});
});
$('#amwbuy').fadeIn(600, function() {
$(this).css({
display:'block',
});
});
});
});
