Ok... So I have this drop down menu working as I'd like... however I'm trying to figure out how to revert the function back to it's original state after a menu item is clicked.
So first when you trigger the function it does & works great the following:
It swaps out .menu_hide and .lockscreen for .menu_show and .lockscreen_on.
// show and hide mobile menu
$('#triggerMobileMenu').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
// Toggle all 4 classes off or on
$('#mobileMenu').toggleClass('menu_hide menu_show');
$('#mobileScreen').toggleClass('lockscreen_off lockscreen_on');
But now I'm trying to add another piece that says once a menu item is clicked, close the menu and swap the classes back to their original state from .menu_show and .lockscreen_on, to .menu_hide and .lockscreen_off.
$('#mobileMenu ul li a').on('click',function(){
$('#mobileMenu').toggleClass('menu_show menu_hide')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
$('#mobileScreen').toggleClass('lockscreen_on lockscreen_off')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
});
});
I should also note that on the same page a scroll to id# may be happening vs just simply taking you to the new url/page. Either case will happen though.
I think that you're making this too complicated. Use the same event handler for both a#triggerMobileMenu and ul#mobileMenu li a since you're having them do the same thing (toggle the visibility of the menu and another element).
$('a#triggerMobileMenu, ul#mobileMenu li a').on('click', function(evt){
evt.preventDefault();
$('#mobileMenu').toggleClass('menu_hide menu_show');
$('#mobileScreen').toggleClass('lockscreen_off lockscreen_on');
});
If you need to know which element was clicked in the event handler, evt.target is available:
if( $(evt.target).is($('a#triggerMobileMenu')) ) {
// do stuff
}
See http://jsfiddle.net/Mph6t/3/
I think it is working as intended. I had to fix some id names that may have been switched in the translation to jsfiddle. Here's a working one as far as I can tell. This leaves the somename2 div still showing. I assume that is going to be blank and just for locking the screen right?
I also changed the link to a new tab for testing purposes. FYI.
Relevant changes are:
$('#somename1 ul li a').on('click',function(){
$('#somename1').toggleClass('menu_show menu_hide')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
$('#somename2').toggleClass('lockscreen_on lockscreen_off')({ autoCloseOnClick: true });
});

Sorry for the question title, I really didn't know how to summarise it a short description.
Essentially I have got a <ul> which has my navigation links. However in one of the <li> links is my custom dropdown shopping basket to give the user a preview of their items.
Now when I hover over the element , I want it to change the basket from display:none to display:block making it visible. But with my code, as soon as I leave the hovered element to click on an item. The dropdown disappears because I'm no longer hovering over the element I defined in my jQuery hover function.
For example (quick dummy code)
$('.hover-on-me').hover(function(){
$('.hover-open').show();
},function(){
//This right here hides the dropdown
$('.hover-open').hide();
});
Now I'm not the bets at javascript/jQuery. I have tried to say in the function, if the mouse is still on the navigation bar , don't hide it or if the mouse is on the shopping basket then don't hide it. I thought this would let me move from the hover element, past the navigation bar and onto the drop down menu but it doesn't work. as the element then stays open and doesn't close when i leave the area.
Here is a simple jsfiddle demonstrating my problem.
Thanks!
I think there is mistake in your class name only.
jQuery Code :-
$('.hover-on-me').hover(function(){
$(this).parent("li").addClass("active");
}, function(){
$(this).parent("li").removeClass("active");
});
Add this to you CSS Code :-
ul li.active{display:inline-block;}
ul li.active .hover-open, ul li .hover-open:hover{display:block;}
Can you please try these.
the hover syntax will look like this.. $(selector).hover(inFunction,outFunction)
and try to modify your script like this..
$('.hover-on-me').hover(
function(){
$('.hover-open').show();
},
function(){
if(!$('ul').is(":hover") || !$('.hover-open').is(":hover")){
$('.hover-open').hide();
}
}
);
OR
use mouse event function..
$( ".hover-on-me" )
.mouseenter(function() {
$('.hover-open').show();
});
$( ".hover-open" )
.mouseleave(function() {
$('.hover-open').hide();
});

I have a accordion menu which have for each parent menu a icon, and this icon is animated with css transition and transform. I added a class with a if condition to the click event. The problem is that when I click for example on Menu1, the icon animation does very well, but if I click directly on Menu2, the menu2 dropdown appear but icon from the menu1 don't take his original position.
This problem applies to each icon in each menu/submenu, I thinks that I have a mistake in my code.
$(document).ready(function() {
// Icons effect
$('#mw_nav .toggle').click(function() {
if($(this).hasClass('rotate_close'))
{
$(this).addClass('rotate_open').removeClass('rotate_close');
}
else {
$(this).addClass('rotate_close').removeClass('rotate_open');
}
});
// Toggle Menu Items
$(function () {
$("#m_nav > ul ul").hide();
$('#m_nav .toggle').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
var $parentli = $(this).closest('li');
$parentli.siblings('li').find('ul:visible').slideToggle(400);
$parentli.find('> ul').stop().slideToggle(400);
$(this).remove;
});
});
});
FIDDLE
Any help would be appreciated
There are 2 issues I see with your code. The first is a recommendation to NOT have $(function() { // your code }) inside of $(document).ready(). $(function() {}) is actually just shorthand for $(document).ready() so you are adding code you do not need.
The second is an issue with your logic.
$('#mw_nav .toggle') and $('#m_nav .toggle') click listeners are essentially adding a click listener on the same exact element, but both run different logic. When the $('#mw_nav .toggle') click listener is getting called it checks for a class to exist to decide what class it needs to remove and add. When $('#m_nav .toggle') click listener is getting called it calls a slideToggle function on the current nested <ul> regardless if another menu is opened or closed and there is no check in place of whether or not the rotate_open/rotate_close classes exist allowing for the classes to get swapped. There is no relation between the swapping of rotate_open/rotate_close classes and the logic that slideToggles <ul> up/down.
UPDATE
I have edited your code and made updates that will now work seen here: https://jsfiddle.net/vhfn0q5a/9/
I have added a class of .top_level to the top level items in your HTML. I use this as a way of differentiating the top level <li> from the sub menus. Next, at the end of the click event listener I check to see if the .toggle element clicked is a top level element, if so I target all top level elements that are not the current selected and make sure they have the .rotate_close class.
$(function() {}) shorthand reference
Use this code in your first click handler:
$('#mw_nav .toggle').click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass('rotate_close rotate_open');
if ($('#mw_nav .toggle').not(this).hasClass('rotate_open')) {
$('#mw_nav .toggle').not(this).removeClass('rotate_open').addClass('rotate_close');
}
});
I've updated your FIDDLE with an working example.
Cheers!
I have created a responsive menu that breaks at 480px and below. I have it to where the following reacts if:
The user clicks on a the "Menu" link.
The menu slideToggles out.
The sub-menus slideToggle out onClick as well.
But you cannot click on any of the pages.
Does this have something to do with the return false?
You may view the example here: http://www.stlredtails.com/construction/
You may need to resize the browser at or belw 480px to see the responsive navigation in action.
Here is the jQuery for the navigation:
jQuery(".navigation ul").hide();
jQuery("#navigation").click(
function() {
jQuery(this).siblings("ul").slideToggle(150, "swing");
return false;
}
);
jQuery(".navigation > ul > li").click(
function() {
jQuery(this).children("ul").slideToggle(150, "swing");
return false;
}
);
Thank you all!
The problem comes from the return false. When you're clicking the links, you're also clicking the ancestors li and ul. Before the link "activates" the functions bound to the ancestors click event execute. Since they return false the default browser behavior (navigating away) is prevented.
There are better solutions for this kind of menu behavior, but using what you already you have (and assuming you won't be changing your html) you can simply add the following to your javascript:
$('.navigation').on('click', 'a:only-child', function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
This searches for all links in the navigation menu that are the only child of their parents (which in this case, happen to be the links you want to continue working as links) and prevents the ancestors click events from executing - the return false shouldn't happen anymore.
So I made my own right click context menu, and I have expandable options on the right click menu when you hover over them. I want the expanded menu to close if the mouse leaves the right click menu so I used the following code:
$('ul').live('mouseout', function(event) {
// close code here
});
But the problem is the event gets called every time I move the mouse onto any of the <li> elements.
How do???
$('ul')
That means all the ul elements. May be you can give it a class (or an id) and do
$('ul.theClass')
Or
$('#ulId')
You might want to change your the code to not bind 'ul' to mouseout because the 'ul' tag would wrap the 'li' tags else nothing you do would work.
A solution for this is that you change menu option title to a div or something else while retaining the menu options as 'ul' 'li' tags
You should try in li try any one of this
$('ul li.classnameforli').bind('mouseout','mouseleave' function(event) {
// close code here
});
Or
$('ul li.classnameforli').live('mouseout' function(event) {
// close code here
});
OK, so. I'm trying to create a dropdown menu of sorts using fadeToggle().
http://westrock.juggernautwebsites.com/ is where the site is currently located.
As you can see, when a user selects 'Properties', the fadeToggle occurs. However, after the dropdown occurs, and a user wants to select a li from the properties dropdown, they are unable to (I know I have return false; set, but that was supposed to be for the original ul, no?)
As well, when the child items are displaying, if you hover over About, the :hover effect displays on the Properties child li.
I'm boggled. Any help, greatly appreciated.
$('#menu-item-13').click(function() {
$(this).children('ul').fadeToggle({
duration: 200
});
return false;
});
*EDIT
I feel like I need to restrict the css and jQuery from affecting children list-items and a, but I don't know how to do this. I thought children only went one level down the DOM, and since I selected 'ul', the function wouldn't affect list-items...
Your example doesn't work at all for me, but if I'm understanding you correctly, you want the child ul to not be affected by the click handler attached to the parent. You can do this:
$('#menu-item-13 > ul').click(function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
// ... do your thing
});
This basically stops the click on the ul from bubbling up to the parent #menu-item-13. Because of this, the fadeToggle will also not trigger from the click on the ul, so if that is still needed you will have to add it to the ul's click.
Thanks for everyone's help! Here's what I eventually ended up using.
$('#primary li').hover(function() {
$(this).children('ul').fadeToggle({
duration: 200
});
});
$('menu-item-54').click(function() {
return false;
});
What I was trying to accomplish upon hover (or click), the subnav would expand open.
