I've asked this question here but another problem came up so I decided to keep the old one for reference purposes. Old question here.
The old question was just about updating the class of a main-menu based on the url but now things have changed. I will provide the new sidebar below.
Sidebar without any active class yet
<div class="sidebar-scroll">
<div id="sidebar" class="nav-collapse collapse">
<!-- BEGIN SIDEBAR MENU -->
<ul class="sidebar-menu">
<li class="sub-menu">
<a class="" href="panel-admin.php">
<i class="icon-dashboard"></i>
<span>Dashboard</span>
</a>
</li>
<li class="sub-menu">
<a href="javascript:;" class="">
<i class="icon-calendar"></i>
<span>Scheduling</span>
<span class="arrow"></span>
</a>
<ul class="sub">
<li><a class="" href="admin-foreign.php">Foreign Languages</a></li>
<li><a class="" href="admin-esl.php">ESL Local</a></li>
<li><a class="" href="admin-workshop.php">Summer Workshops</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<!-- END SIDEBAR MENU -->
</div>
</div>
It would look like this:
Dashboard
Scheduling
--> Foreign Languages
--> ESL Local
--> Summer Workshops
As you can see Scheduling has a sub-menu.
Then how it would look like if I am on the dashboard. The sidebar would look like this
<div class="sidebar-scroll">
<div id="sidebar" class="nav-collapse collapse">
<!-- BEGIN SIDEBAR MENU -->
<ul class="sidebar-menu">
<li class="sub-menu [active]"> //without the []
<a class="" href="panel-admin.php">
<i class="icon-dashboard"></i>
<span>Dashboard</span>
</a>
</li>
<li class="sub-menu">
<a href="javascript:;" class="">
<i class="icon-calendar"></i>
<span>Scheduling</span>
<span class="arrow"></span>
</a>
<ul class="sub">
<li><a class="" href="admin-foreign.php">Foreign Languages</a></li>
<li><a class="" href="admin-esl.php">ESL Local</a></li>
<li><a class="" href="admin-workshop.php">Summer Workshops</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<!-- END SIDEBAR MENU -->
</div>
</div>
So the Dashboard would be highlighted in this scenario
And how it would look like if Im on any of the sub-menu under Scheduling
<div class="sidebar-scroll">
<div id="sidebar" class="nav-collapse collapse">
<!-- BEGIN SIDEBAR MENU -->
<ul class="sidebar-menu">
<li class="sub-menu">
<a class="" href="panel-admin.php">
<i class="icon-dashboard"></i>
<span>Dashboard</span>
</a>
</li>
<li class="sub-menu [active]">
<a href="javascript:;" class="">
<i class="icon-calendar"></i>
<span>Scheduling</span>
<span class="arrow"></span>
</a>
<ul class="sub">
<li [class="active"]><a class="" href="admin-foreign.php">Foreign Languages</a></li>
<li><a class="" href="admin-esl.php">ESL Local</a></li>
<li><a class="" href="admin-workshop.php">Summer Workshops</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<!-- END SIDEBAR MENU -->
</div>
Since I am in the Foreign Languages section. The main header Scheduling and this Foreign Langauges would be active but different class. The active class of Scheduling is sub-menu active while Foreign Languages would just have active only.
And javascript that I've tried no longer applies here since it only handles menus without any dropdown. And it didn't work anyway
Old javascript
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($) {
var path = window.location.href; // because the 'href' property of the DOM element is the absolute path
//alert($('ul a').length);
$('ul a').each(function() {
if (this.href === path) {
$(this).addClass('sub-menu active');
}
//alert(this.href);
});
});
</script>
The goal here is to put a "active" class to the section of the sidebar based on the url the user is in. I've just include('sidebar.php') this sidebar so I would only change this file rather than put a sidebar in each php page file. But then the main heading and the dropdown menu has different active classes.
Found the solution with the help of gecco. The javascript is below:
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($) {
var path = window.location.href; // because the 'href' property of the DOM element is the absolute path
$('ul a').each(function() {
if (this.href === path) {
$(this).addClass('sub-menu active');
$(this).parent().closest("li").addClass('active'); //added this line to include the parent
$(this).parent().parent().closest("li").addClass('active');
}
});
});
</script>
I was already halfway with using php to do this HAHAHAHA. if current_url = db_page_url then put echo class=active. HAHAHA.
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($) {
var path = window.location.href; // because the 'href' property of the DOM element is the absolute path
$('ul a').each(function() {
if (this.href === path) {
$(this).addClass('sub-menu active');
$(this).parent().parent().closest("li").addClass('active2');
}
});
});
</script>
The only change I have done here is adding another line to your JS
$(this).parent().parent().closest("li").addClass('active2');
And here is my style sheet
.active2 > a{
color:red; //what ever the styles you want
}
OR
You can do it without a style
jQuery(function($) {
var path = window.location.href;
$('ul a').each(function() {
if (this.href === path) {
$(this).addClass('sub-menu active');
$( this ).parent().parent().closest("li").addClass('active2');
$('.active2 a:first').addClass('active'); //add the active class to the parent node
}
});
});

Here's my code:
I want it in a way that when i click on a child link, it becomes active and the parent link is active too. I utilize the css class .active for my active classes for both the main and sub-menu.
The below JS snippet works but only for the menus without sub-menus
$(document).ready(function($) {
var url = window.location.href;
var activePage = url;
$('.menu li a').each(function() {
var linkPage = this.href;
if (activePage == linkPage) {
$(this).closest("li").addClass("active");
}
});
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="menu">
<ul class="list">
<li class="header">MAIN NAVIGATION</li>
<li class="">
<a href="index.php">
<i class="material-icons">home</i>
<span>Dashboard</span>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="sell.php">
<i class="material-icons">receipt</i>
<span>Sell</span>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#">

<li>
<a href="javascript:void(0);" class="menu-toggle">

<span>Products</span>

<ul class="ml-menu">
<li>

</li>

</li>
<li>

</li>
<li>

</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<!-- #Menu -->
Implement an on mousedown event listener for your anchor tags, passing in the id for each anchor tag and use the parentElement property to get the element's parent.
document.getElementById("myLI").parentElement.nodeName;
you can try this JS code:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('a').click(function () {
//removing the previous selected menu state
$('.menu').find('li.active').removeClass('active');
//adding the state for this parent menu
$(this).parents("li").addClass('active');
});
});
And the css for Active link:
.active > a {
color:red;
}
hope it helps...
I have a sub-menu inside the navbar under the Services nav-item.
The expected behavior is once the Service is clicked, the sub-menu shows up. The actual behavior is: once the Service is clicked, the sub-menu flashes and disappears.
<nav id="main-menu">
<ul class="sf-navbar">
<li>
<a href="#home">
<div data-i18n="nav.home">Home</div>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#">
<div data-i18n="nav.services.title">Title</div>
</a>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="#service">
<div data-i18n="nav.services.ourservices">Our Services</div>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#how">
<div data-i18n="nav.services.howwework">How We Work</div>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#areascontainer">
<div data-i18n="servicearea.title">Service Area</div>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#why">
<div data-i18n="why.title">Why Choose Us</div>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
.....
</nav>
JS code:
wei.header = {
init: function(){
wei.header.superfish();
},
superfish: function() {
$( main_menu ).superfish({
popUpSelector : 'ul',
delay : 250,
speed : 350
});
},
...
I have tried to debug it, but have no clue where to start.
Here is the code that I am working on.
http://weistudio.com.au/
For some reason, SuperFish fails here on touchEnd event and only for the menu shown when you at the very top of the page (it works if you scroll page a bit - there is a clone of this menu).
To prevent it you could use something like <a href="#" onTouchEnd="(function (e) {e.preventDefault()})(event)">.
Or move it to an external method and use like this (as you using jQuery already):
$('.header-container').on('touchend', '.sf-with-ul', function (e) {e.preventDefault()})
I am trying to make my website's menu in one file only and just include it in the rest of the .html pages. I am copy and pasting the menu each time I make a new page because I want the tab that is active to be highlighted for each different page. This is the reason why I can't make one file only for every page, and I have no idea how can I make it work to set the tab active in each different page.
This is the code I am copy-pasting in each page.
<!-- BEGIN MENU -->
<section id="menu-area">
<nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation">
<div class="container">
<div id="navbar" class="navbar-collapse collapse">
<ul id="top-menu" class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right main-nav">
<li>Home</li>
<li>Downloads</li>
<li>Media</li>
<li class="dropdown"><a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle"
data-toggle="dropdown">Research <span
class="fa fa-angle-down"></span></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
<li>D3</li>
</ul></li>
<li>Team</li>
<li class="active">Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
<!--/.nav-collapse -->
<a href="#" id="search-icon"> <i class="fa fa-search"> </i>
</a>
</div>
</nav>
</section>
<!-- END MENU -->
In this case the contact tab is highlighted:
<li class="active">Contact</li>
If the case is that the home page is active, then I would need to do this:
<li class="active">Home</li>
I hope I made myself clear, my English is terrible. I appreciate any idea, I am really new at web development.
One thing you can do is to read the URL and on base of that you add the active class to that link in your menu.
$(function() {
var pgurl = window.location.href.substr(window.location.href
.lastIndexOf("/")+1);
$("#nav ul li a").each(function(){
if($(this).attr("href") == pgurl || $(this).attr("href") == '' )
$(this).addClass("active");
})
});
Using D3
<script>
var pgUrl = window.location.href.substr(window.location.href.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
d3.select("#navbar").selectAll("a").each(function(d){
if(d.tecode here == pgUrl )
d.attr("class","active");
});
</script>
I think this way more useful:
$(function(){
var pgUrl = window.location.href.substr(window.location.href.lastIndexOf('/') + 1);
$("#nav ul li a[href='"+ pgUrl +"']").addClass('active');
});
how to add javascript function to a class of active ??
I do not understand completely about javascript.
if i click menu its like remove and add new class nav active.
<div id="sidebar">
<ul id="mainNav">
<li id="navDashboard" class="nav active">
<span class="icon-home"></span>
Beranda
</li>
<li id="navPages" class="nav">
<span class="icon-document-alt-stroke"></span>
Data Profil
<ul class="subNav">
<li>Peta Lokasi</li>
<li>Site Plan</li>
</ul>
</li>
You can use something like this:
$(selector).click(function(){
$(this).removeClass(your class)
.addClass('active');
});
You have to define the selector you want to do something.
I am really stuck on this. I have a dropdown menu called "Example" that contains 2 submenus "submenu1" and "submenu2". When either of the 2 is clicked, it will contain an image thumb which will be displayed in lightbox style. But as of now both thumbs are displayed and this is not what I want because the final web page will contain hundreds of images. Is there a way to make the images appear only when one sub-menu is clicked, according to the code below. Thanks

WOW I can't believe I found the solution after so many days by adding just a simple word. Didn't have to mess with javascript at all. Actually in the external .js file of the website I was told by a code developer to add the following: filter: '.foobar' See the final result below $container.isotope({
// options
animationEngine: 'best-available',
itemSelector : '.item-thumbs',
filter: '.foobar',
layoutMode : 'fitRows'
});
Here is what I would do:
I try and keep the logic simple, then you can just use something similar on your site :)
(Please S.O. Correct me if I am wrong here!)
CSS:
Give your submenus an ID
JavaScript:
// 2 event listeners that will run a function when the submenu is clicked:
var sub_menu_1 = document.getElementById( "submenu1" );
sub_menu_1.addEventListener("click", DISPLAY_menu_1 , false);
var sub_menu_2 = document.getElementById( "submenu2" );
sub_menu_2.addEventListener("click", DISPLAY_menu_1 , false);
function DISPLAY_menu_1 () {
// Do whatever CSS you need here, I simply make the entire DIV 'visible':
sub_menu_1.style.visibility = 'visible';
// For good measures, lets make submenu2 'invisible':
sub_menu_2.style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
function DISPLAY_menu_2 () {
// Same in Reverse
sub_menu_2.style.visibility = 'visible';
sub_menu_1.style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
EDIT:
Whew! This took a while.. Sorry about that!
Check out this example:
I basically made 3 versions for you to try out.
