When the cursor hovers over my link, I want it to display a message saying "Hovering". I have tried the code below, but it does not create this window. Why not?
HTML:
<body>
<nav id="menu">
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html" id="home_button">
</ul>
</nav>
</body>
Javascript:
$(document).ready(function()
{
$("#menu ul li a").mouseover(function()
{
alert("Hovering");
});
});
Your code works, you just need to fix your HTML tags.
You are missing the anchor and list-item closure tags.
<nav id="menu">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
</ul>
</nav>

When I put $("header nav ul").toggleClass("open") outside of the on click function it works, but it doesn't when I put it inside. Why is that??
The alert method is running, so clicking the a tag works.
<header>
<div class="wrapper">
<h1 class="logo">Blesto</h1>
<nav>
<h2>Main Navigation</h2>
<ul class="burger-nav-ul">
<li>Our Story</li>
<li>Menu</li>
<li>Reservations</li>
<li>News</li>
<li>Reviews</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</div>
</header>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".burger-nav").click(function(){
alert("hi");
$("header nav ul").toggleClass("open");
});
});
You need to stop the default behavior of anchor element.
$(".burger-nav").click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
alert("hi");
$("header nav ul").toggleClass("open");
});
You are right about alert being run, but then the default behavior is run which is going to wherever href points to. In this case, the same page.
I have a simple open/close responsive menu that uses jQuery. The menu works just fine but the website I'm using it on is a simple single page site with different sections. My problem is the menu opens and closes when the user clicks the menu handle and I'd like it to close when the user clicks on a menu item also. I have very little experience in jQuery so I need help solving this problem.
The HTML:
<nav>
<ul>
<li>home</li>
<li>about</li>
<li>contact</li>
</ul>
<div class="handle">Menu</div>
</nav>
The jQuery:
$('.handle').on('click', function(){
$('nav ul').toggleClass('showing');
});
Thank you.
I think you need this:
$('.handle').on('click', function(){
$('nav ul').toggleClass('showing');
});
$('nav ul a').on("click", function(){
$('nav ul').removeClass('showing');
});
I also noticed your HTML structure is wrong...
The <li> should be child of <ul>
<nav>
<ul>
<li>home</li>
<li>about</li>
<li>contact</li>
</ul>
<div class="handle">Menu</div>
</nav>

You can change the toggleClass to just toggle to hide the elements. To get the behavior you'd like, change your jQuery selector to:
$('.handle, nav ul a').on('click', function(){
$('nav ul').toggle();
});
I have a menu with several options, I would like to know how to load different HTML into the same div (called #content) depending on the buttons you press of the menu.
I have this code for the menu:
<div id="mainmenu">
<ul id="menu">
<li>Accueil</li>
<li>Qui suis-je?
<ul>
<li>Biographie</li>
<li>Discographie</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Porfolio</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
What do I need to do to send, for example, "index.html" into div#content when I press in the menu the option "Accueil"?
Using jQuery ajax you can do it
HTML
<div id="mainmenu">
<ul id="menu">
<li>Accueil</li>
<li>Qui suis-je?
<ul>
</div>
JAVASCRIPT(jQuery)
$(function(){
$('#menu li a').on('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var page_url=$(this).prop('href');
$('#content').load(page_url);
});
});
jQuery load
You can use jQuery, it makes stuff like this easy:
Then you can do this:
$('#content>div').load('index.html');
You can either put this in onclick on some button, or in other place in your javascript code...
I'm having some problems understanding the stracture of JQuery elements and how to move through the DOM tree.
My aim is to highlight (background color) the clicked link (a).
if the "li a" is inside ul which is not the main "menu" ul (meanning sub-menu link) then i want to highlight both the sub menu link and the top menu link.
My HTML code is:
<div id="site">
<div id="koteret">
<div id="top_menu">
<ul id="menu">
<li><a href="welcome.html" id="wel" title="HomePge" >home</a></li>
<li>read
<ul class="par">
<li><a href="welcome.html" id="b" title="title" >test</a></li>
<li>addRead</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="books.aspx" title="Books" >Books</a>
<ul class="par">
<li>Search</li>
<li>Register</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="contact.html" id="a" title="Contact" >CoNTACT</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div id="test">
<iframe id="con" src="welcome.html">ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffsdfdsfsdfwefwfwfw
fwfwefwe<br />fwefwefw</iframe>
<div id="side_bar">fsfdsfsdf</div>
</div>
<div id="footer">footer</div>
</div>
</body>
As for the JQuery i tried this:
$(this).closest("ul").find("a").attr("id"));
and a few other versions with parents but i get "undefined" or empty strings when i check with alerts.
Can you help me understand where is my mistake?
I'm sure it's something very simple i just can't find it.
Thanks
To highlight the submenu link and its top most parent link use the following code:
$(this).css("background-color","red");
$(this).parents("li").last().find("a:first").css("background-color","red");
The first line highlights the link.
The second line will look for the top-most 'li' then select its immediate 'a' tag and highlight it
UPDATE:
To remove the highlight of the previous click use a CSS class:
.highlight {
background-color: red;
}
Then use the following code:
$("#menu").find(".highlight").removeClass('highlight');
$(this).addClass('highlight');
$(this).parents("li").last().find("a:first").addClass('highlight');
I've got the following html code:
<div id="menuItems" class="hidden">
<ul>
<li><a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">MenuItem #1</a></li>
<li>
<a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">MenuItem #2</a>
<ul>
<li><a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">SubItem #1</a></li>
<li><a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">SubItem #2</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">MenuItem #3</a></li>
<li>
<a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">MenuItem #4</a>
<ul>
<li><a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">SubItem #3</a></li>
<li><a class="fgMenuItem" href="#">SubItem #4</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$(".fgMenuItem").bind("click",function() {
alert('test');
});
});
</script>
I'm using Filament Group's iPod menu and the menus are working fine, but my jQuery code is not working. I'm trying to make it so that when an item is clicked, it executes my alert('test');.
I suspect the problem may be that Filament Group is overriding my click event handler, but I'm not sure how to fix it. I tried going into their javascript file and changing all the .click(function() { to .bind("click", function() {, but this didn't seem to make any difference. Any suggestions would be great!
Just tested and all working fine for me, you are including jQuery at the top of your document right?
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"> </script>
</head>
$(function() {
$(".fgMenuItem").on("click",function() {
alert('test');
});
});

EDIT: If you're able to set up a fiddle or provide more code (working demo page perhaps?) then I'll take another look and see if I can spot the problem
