Like the title says, a page I'm working on is firing a hover event on page load.
Javascript
// Random Color Function
var repeater;
function rnd_color(){
document.getElementById('logo').style.fill = '#'+Math.floor(Math.random()*16777215).toString(16);
repeater = setTimeout( function(){ rnd_color(el) }, 100);
};
// Logo Hover
var logo = document.getElementById('logo');
logo.addEventListener('mouseover', rnd_color, false);
logo.addEventListener('mouseout', function(){
clearTimeout(repeater);
this.style.fill = '#000';
});
The above is of course wrapped in a 'DOMContentLoaded' wrapper.
HTML
<svg class='menu-logo' id='logo' xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 170 105.5"> <!-- PATHS AND FILLS HERE --> </svg>
So this function is just a fun easter egg - once you hover over the svg, it fires off a new fill color every 1/10 of a second. Everything else about it works just fine except that, upon loading the page, the color function immediately begins running. Once you move the mouse at all, the appropriate 'mouseout' event takes care of refilling the svg to #000.
Even stranger, upon loading a cached version of the page, the error disappears. This only appears to happen on a completely new load of the page. Any possibility that this is a race condition of some sort even though this is wrapped in the appropriate Event Listener? Thanks!
I won't say that I found a completely supported answer per se, but I did find the cause of my problem which, unfortunately, was not necessarily included in the statement of my question.
This element in question resides at 0,0 on my viewport. It's a large fixed logo that fits into a table-like layout. It would appear that, in certain instances of loading the site such as an incognito or cache-less view (the latter being somewhat inconsistent), the initial cursor position prior to the mouse moving is always set at 0,0 until the mouse has moved.
This raises some questions on the consistency of where the cursor is located upon repeat views of pages and whether or not it can be set programatically. There are a couple of ways around it for now.
I have this very simple function to resize a div according to an element on the page.
Because of the static navigation bar on top of the page, I need to control the empty space underneath it, for the first div with content to appear on the right place (below the navigation bar), specially because when the screen is smaller, the navigation bar gets larger (height is bigger).
My question is: why does it not always work? It works fine most of the times, but sometimes I need to refresh the page for it to work.
Here is the dummy HTML:
<div id="menu-fixed-top"></div>
<div id="empty-space"></div>
<div id="content"></div>
where the #empty-space is the div I want to control the height.
I used the document.ready and the window.resize to control it.
The JQuery function is:
$(document).ready(function() {
var height = $("#menu-fixed-top").innerHeight();
$("#empty-space").height( height );
$(window).resize(function() {
$("#empty-space").height( height );
});
});
Is there any way to get it working 100% of the time? Or the only way is to be sure is to use media queries?
Thanks
document.ready will trigger when the whole DOM has loaded and is ready for javascript to execute. This is to avoid any problems with javascript being ready to go but the whole DOM hasn't finished loading.
http://learn.jquery.com/using-jquery-core/document-ready/
I would first check to see that the DOM has finished loading without document.ready being triggered before drawing the conclusion that jquery isn't kicking it off.
You may also want to look at window.load if you're wanting to calculate heights and such as the DOM != the fully rendered page
I am making a jQuery gallery, but for some reason every animation function takes so long to execute.
There is a simple HTML page with a table that is filled with PHP( which I imagine has nothing to do with the problem since it is preloaded by the server) and a script tag beneath that calls the effect. I haven't even finished it because it started "jumping" from the beggining...the fade is not smooth at all...
The image inside gallery is about 40 KB size
That is all I'm calling and it is already slow...

<script>
$("#gallery_base").hide();
$("#gallery").hide();
$(".item_par_pic").click(function () {
$("#gallery_base").fadeTo(550, 0.8);
$("#gallery").fadeTo(550, 1);
});
</script>
$("#gallery").fadeTo(550, 1)
.fadeTo() takes a value between ZERO (clear) and ONE (opaque). A value of 550 makes no sense.
I'm using the following code:
$("#galleries").load("letters/index.php");
$(function(){
$('#galleries').hide().fadeIn(1500);
});
everything works fine. My problem is, I got about 8 scripts like that, and whenever I switch the content of the div, it doesn't do that smoothly, first of all, it clears the DIV and let me see that for about 0.7 seconds, after that, it loads ALL of the content within a second, and it's really disturbing my eye.
I thought about a solution, that I will get the height of the page I wanna load, and then set the DIV height to that height, and then load the info. Will it work? because, the LOAD function removes everything from the div, will it remove the height property as well?
generally, this is what im trying to achieve:
//GET TARGET'S HEIGHT
//SET #galleries TO THAT HEIGHT
$("#galleries").load("letters/index.php");
$(function(){
$('#galleries').hide().fadeIn(1500);
});
I don't know how to get the target's height and set it. But anyways, will it work? or maybe someone has another solution for me?
Thanks in advance!
You aren't using the complete callback of load() which allows you to run code after content is loaded.
Try something like this:
$(function(){
/* hide first, then load*/
$('#galleries').hide().load("letters/index.php", function(){
/* new content now exists*/
$(this).slideDown()/* or fadeIn() or any other effect*/
});
});
SlideDown is not dependent on overall height so will smoothly move content below it down
I'm trying to use lazyload to only load images that are visible (because my site is responsive and some content is hidden with display:none to clients on a smaller screen).
Basically, lazyload works, but ONLY after I scroll the page a little.
This is the lazy load settings I'm using, and even after setting the threshold to 2000px (more than the entire page height) it still only loads images after the user scrolls the page (even 1 px).
This bug only appears in webkit browsers.
$(document).ready(function () {
$("img").lazyload({threshold : "2000", effect : "fadeIn", effectspeed: 2000,});
});
I think it could be some misbehavior of threshold parameter, but still you can manually fire the loading according to this page:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("img")
.lazyload({
event: "lazyload",
effect: "fadeIn",
effectspeed: 2000
})
.trigger("lazyload");
});
</script>
but if you want to load all images on ready, why need lazyload at all? You could just use $.animate.
Just add this after .lazyload() and it will trigger scroll and show images
$(window).trigger('scroll');
You need to set width and height for you images.
If width and height are not set jQuery will report images invisible in Webkit browsers on document.load event. When skip_invisible is true Lazy Load will ignore the images, meaning it wont try to figure out whether image should be loaded or not. They will load first time you scroll.
If you set skip_invisible is false plugin will try to figure out should images be loaded. However since you do not have width and height set all images will be size of 0x0 or 1x1. Because of this all images are in viewport (because of their size) when plugin kicks in. Because images are in viewport Lazy Load will instruct to load them all.
In short: Add width and height to images. Lazy Load wont work properly without them.
I'm not sure when this got added, but you can manually fire the 'appear' event to some or all (depending on the css selector) appear:
$("img.lazy").trigger('appear');
Got this from here: http://yuji.wordpress.com/2014/05/14/force-jquery-lazyload-to-appear/
I had the same issue. They are in a scrolling div, but would only load after an initial scroll.
Using 'appear' will show them all, unless you limit it. In my case, I only wanted to show the first 3 on load. The rest of them lazy load as usual.
$("img.lazy:lt(3)").trigger('appear');
Try to pass additional parameter.
skip_invisible : false
This parameter is true by default, so it seems your images are not visible when plugin starts it's job. It could happens when you are using any preloader on your website.
I had the same problem, and found a solution for this.
Please note that my images were placed inside of a div that is populated via an ajax call.
Just change a line of code inside the lazyload sources (lines 147-150) of version 1.8.4:
/* Force initial check if images should appear. */
$(document).ready(function() {
update();
});
instead of
/* Force initial check if images should appear. */
$(window).load(function() {
update();
});
Or eventually add the call to "update()" to any other needed event.
I had a similar issue where the images wouldn't load after a ajax call until I scrolled (even if I just scrolled 1px it would load). I found I needed to add a height and width to my images like Mika Tuupola said. My images were loaded dynamically, were different image sizes and loaded from a foreach loop. I added generic width and height attribute to the image tag then after the lazyload loads the image I removed the attributes so it would show the correct image size.
<img class="lazy" src="img/placeholder.gif" data-original="img/image.gif" width="1000" height="600">
$('img.lazy').lazyload({
skip_invisible: false
}).removeClass('lazy').removeAttr('width').removeAttr('height');
I had the same problem with hidden elements, is a simple workaround but it works. When I click on the page, I triggering scroll event to force lazyload script. You can do the same thing with the event resize
$(document).ready(function () {
$("img").lazyload({
event: "lazyload",
effect: "fadeIn",
effectspeed: 2000
});
$(window).resize(function () {
$(this).trigger("scroll");
});
});
In short: Add width and height to images. Lazy Load wont work properly without them.
You should be loaded in advance placeholder;Like this：
<img src="./images/grey.gif" alt="" style="display:none">
And then
$("img.lazy").lazyload({placeholder : "images/grey.gif"});
If you set the width of the image to 100%,this will provide a width and height.
This solved my problem.
This is working solution, but in is not very good for some reason:
$("img").lazyload({
/* Image loaded callback function */
load: function() {
$(window).trigger('scroll');
}
});
Every time lazyload plugin load the picture, this function will be called and window trigger 'scroll' will be emulated, so it is a solution for me
Increase the failure_limit.
After scrolling page plugin loops though unloaded images. Loop checks if image has become visible. By default loop is stopped when first image outside viewport is found. This is based on following assumption. Order of images on page is same as order of images in HTML code. With some layouts assumption this might be wrong.
Setting failure_limit to 10 causes plugin to stop searching for images to load after finding 10 images below the fold.
I was dealing with the same issue and I noticed that this problem only occurs when images are placed inside a div that is initially hidden (ie. display: none;)
