I am trying to write some code for change() event using jQuery Text Editor (jqte), I have two functions which give jqte functionality to textarea's
One for editors loaded with JavaScript, when clicking some elements in a page:
function onLoadEditor(){
jQuery(".comment-editor").jqte({
// some jqte params, such as fsize: false,indent: false...
change: function(){ observeEditor(); }
});
}
And other, generic function, for pages with one single editor
jQuery(function() {
jQuery(".comment-editor").jqte({
// some jqte params, such as fsize: false,indent: false...
change: function(){ observeEditor(); }
});
});
I want to access the id of the concrete textarea (all textareas in the page have an id) which has fired the change() event
How should I write observeEditor() function to achieve this? Or... how I should define the function in jqte change property?
After reading this jQuery blur event with ID and value I have solved it, with following code (simplified)
function onLoadEditor(){
jQuery(".comment-editor").each(function(idx, elem) {
jQuery(this).jqte({
// some jqte params, such as fsize: false,indent: false...
change: observeEditor(elem.id),
});
}
jQuery(function() {
onLoadEditor();
});
But now I have another problem...
As you can read in the original question, onLoadEditor() is called when clicking some elements in a page. Then another javascript function jsComment() is called, builds a form (with a textarea.comment-editor field included) and it is rendered this way
function jsComment(){
...
var form = '<div class="comments_wrapper ... ';
jQuery(form).insertAfter(some_element).fadeIn('fast');
onLoadEditor();
}
Problem is change() event is being fired only once, when form fades in, while the idea is the opposite, event should fire when user adds some text, not when appearing... Any tips?
UPDATE
After reading Event binding on dynamically created elements? I have solved it this way
function onLoadEditor(){
jQuery('.comment-editor').each(function(idx, elem) {
jQuery(this).jqte({
// some jqte params, such as fsize: false,indent: false...
});
jQuery(document).on('change',
jQuery('.comment-editor'),
function(){
observeEditor(elem.id);
}
);
});
}
jQuery(function() {
onLoadEditor();
});
Although finally I am not using change() event, as it was being fired constantly. Performing better with keyup() & paste(), for instance

I have an index page that contains the following events.
<div id="sub_page"></div>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("a.menu_navegacion_abrircaja").on('click', function (ev) {
ev.preventDefault();
var href = “nombrecontrollerEJ/view_ej";
$.post(href, function (data) {
$("#sub_page").html(data);
});
});
});
In it, when you click, load the html contents of subpages in the div sub_page.
In view view view_ej, I bring html code and also, jquery code. The Jquery code of the view that is added to the index div is as follows:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#modal_establecer_turnos').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
alert("hello");
});
});
By clicking on the link that contains the class "menu_navegacion_abrircaja", I get the alert ("hello");
But it turns out that there is a problem, for every time I click on the link, the alert messages are repeated (alert ("hello");). For example, the first time I click on the link that contains the class menu_navegacion_abrircaja, it works fine showing the alert once, but then I click again on the same link it shows me the alert twice, then I do it for the third time, He shows me three times the alert, and so on.
I would like to know how to solve this problem.
Will there be any way to restart the events or handler of the jquery, as are the events click, change, "hidden.bs.modal", etc., in such a way that their repetition of the events is avoided?
I have seen the methods unbind (), bind (), off (), which might be the solution, but if so, how could you apply them?
Maybe you could try something like this in the jQuery code of your subpage:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#modal_establecer_turnos').off('hidden.bs.modal');
$('#modal_establecer_turnos').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
alert(“hello”);
});
});
I'm using the following global jQuery to show and hide a loading div for $.ajax calls:
$(document).ajaxStart(function(){
$("#loading").show();
}
$(document).ajaxStop(function(){
$("#loading").hide();
}
This works fine, but I do not want to show the loading div for autocompletes, so I added this:
$("input[type=text]").keydown(function(){
if($(this).hasClass('ui-autocomplete-input')) {
window.suppressGlobal = true;
}
});
Then, to reset suppressGlobal for "normal" $.ajax calls, this:
var origAjax = $.ajax;
$.ajax = function() {
if (window.suppressGlobal) {
arguments[0].global = false;
}
origAjax.apply(this, arguments);
window.suppressGlobal = false;
};
This all works nicely for text inputs that are constructed with page load. However, I have several situations where text inputs are inserted dynamically on the client-side using jQuery/Javascript, in which case the keydown event does not get bound to the global function. I also tried on:
$("input[type=text]").on('keydown', function(){
if($(this).hasClass('ui-autocomplete-input')) {
window.suppressGlobal = true;
}
});
But that doesn't work either. Is there a way that I can globally capture the keydown event regardless of when the text input was added? Could I somehow globally capture the addition of text inputs to the DOM and attach the event handler then?
you will have to use $(document).on() for dynamically created controls.
jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/G9qJE/
also you can use: $('body').on
explanation:
When an event is assigned, it's only assigned to elements that currently exist on the page. If you later on other elements, there is nothing watching that watches for those elements too allow them to be used as well.
That is why you need something sitting at the document level which is aware of the event and the elements you want to apply it to, so that it can watch for any new elements that match and apply that event to them as well.
$(document).on("keydown", "input[type=text]", function() {
if($(this).hasClass('ui-autocomplete-input')) {
window.suppressGlobal = true;
}
});
I wrote a little pager which removes and rewrites content. I have a function called after loading the page, it shall be executed after changing the page as well. Because I do not wat to implement the function twice (on initialisation and after changing the page) I tried bind()/live() and a simple function.
The function looks like this:
jQuery('.blogentry').each(function (){
jQuery(this).click(function(){
//Clicking on the element opens a layer, definitely works - I tested it
});
});
It is executed after initialisation, for executing it after page changes as well I tried the following:
jQuery('.nextPage, .prevPage').click(function changePage(){
// Changing page and rewriting content
showEntry();
});
//...
showEntry();
//...
function showEntry(){
jQuery('.blogentry').each(function (){
jQuery(this).click(function(){
//Clicking on the element opens a layer, definitely works - I tested it
});
});
}
But the function is not executed if put inside a function (lol) and called via showEntry();
Afterwards I tried to bind the function...
jQuery('.nextPage, .prevPage').click(function changePage(){
// Changing page and rewriting content
jQuery('.blogentry').bind("click", showEntry);
});
//...
jQuery(this).click(function showEntry(){
//Clicking on the element opens a layer, definitely works - I tested it
});
Did not work either. Code after the bind()-line would not execute as well.
I thought maybe it's a problem to bind to an event function, if an event is already given via the parameter so i also tried this:
jQuery('.nextPage, .prevPage').click(function changePage(){
// Changing page and rewriting content
jQuery('.blogentry').bind("click", showEntry);
});
//...
function showEntry(){
//Clicking on the element opens a layer, definitely works - I tested it
});
}
No success at all. Maybe I cannot call the function from inside the function regarding to the bind()? Maybe I just do not understand the bind()-function at all? I also tried the live() function since it seemed to fit better, as I am rewriting the content all the time. But it had the same effect: none...
The simplest way to implement this should be
jQuery('.blogentry').live('click', function() { /* onclick handler */ });
This should bind the function to every blogentry on the page at the moment of the call and all the blogentries that are added to the page later on.
Additional notes:
In $(foo).each(function() { $(this).click(fun); }); the each is unnecessary - $(foo).click(fun); is enough.
$(foo).bind('click', fun); is functionally equivalent to $(foo).click(fun) - it does not matter which one you use.
You can use delegate or bind. don't call the function like that, just create a delegate with .blogentry and it should update even after you load a new page via ajax. It will automatically do this.
$("#blogcontainer").delegate(".blogentry", "click", function(){ //open layer });
This should work for you
$(body).delegate(".blogentry", "click", function(){
showEntry();
});
alternaltivly you can use event delegation
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#blogcontainer').click( function(e) {
if ( $(e.target).is('.blogentry') ) {
// do your stuff
}
});
});
hence, no need to bind each blogentry at creation or reload, and it's (slightly) faster.
I have two functions: one that creates a new <textarea> when a button is clicked, and a second function that performs an action when the <textarea> is clicked (or blurred, changed, etc.) That second function selects elements based on a class name. It seems that the second function only works on those matching elements that existed when the page was loaded, but it will not activate on any newly created <textarea> elements. Can anyone figure out why and how to fix this? You'll find the code below. Thanks. --Jake
$('#add').click(function() {
$(this).before("<textarea class='test'></textarea>")
})
$('.test').blur(function () {
alert('just a test')
})
The textarea you create isn't around at the time jQuery assigns the action to elements tagged with the .test class. You'll need the live() function to make this work as desired.
$('.test').live('blur', function () {
alert('just a test')
});
Now any element tagged with .test will automatically bind the specified function on blur no matter when it's created.
You can bind it directly:
$('#add').click(function() {
$(this).before("<textarea class='test'></textarea>").prev().blur(function () {
alert('just a test');
});
});
Or place use jQuery's .delegate() method to place a handler on the parent of #add.
$('#add').click(function() {
$(this).before("<textarea class='test'></textarea>")
}).parent().delegate('.test','blur',function() {
alert('just a test');
});
This is a more efficient approach than using .live().
I have an HTML document, with the jquery code
$(function(){
[...]
$("#newNotice").click(function(){
$("#properties").load("testDiagramm.html #NoticeForm");
return false;
});
function showFormValues(){
var s = $("form").serialize();
[... Do things ...]
}
$("input, textarea").change(showFormValues);
});
At the beginning there is no form in the HTML document. But i load diffrent forms into the document. One of those request you can see here
$("#properties").load("testDiagramm.html #NoticeForm");
The problem is. that the codeline
$("input, textarea").change(showFormValues);
only fire, when the form was loaded at the beginning. What must I do, if i want to execute the function showFormValues(), when I changed something in the formular, which i load later?
Thanks a lot for your answers.

Your form loses its binding to the DOM after it is reloaded via ajax, so event handlers previously bound to the elements that get injected into the page are lost.
I would normally suggest using event delegation with live, but it does not support the change event, so a safe bet would be to rebind using a callback as a second parameter to your $.load function:
$(function(){
[...]
$("#newNotice").click(function(){
$("#properties").load("testDiagramm.html #NoticeForm", function() {
$("input, textarea").change(showFormValues);
});
return false;
});
function showFormValues(){
var s = $("form").serialize();
[... Do things ...]
}
$("input, textarea").change(showFormValues);
});
