In one of my projects, I am replacing the default cursor in the browser with an SVG one. I am appending this SVG cursor via jQuery. This works fine, but I want to change the cursor when it hovers over links, and right now, nothing I have tried has worked.
I think it is because even though the cursor has a position of fixed and a high z-index value, it cannot tell what it is hovering over because technically it is below the content.
Does anyone have suggestions?
EDIT: Right after I posted this question and after I included a JS Fiddle in the comments, I changed my code to make the cursor appear before the content. The issue remains, however.
Look above in the comments for #mcbex's JS Fiddle! Apparently, one does not simply add a class to an SVG, one must customize it with fill colors.

I have no idea what to do with this button anymore (the "donate" one here).
I have used a plug-in in parallel for the mobile version which works just fine with a defined position of fixed.
This is also fixed position but the "donate" button keeps going behind pretty much all the elements which looks very bad since I want it on top :( any help is appreciated.
U should remove that button from there! Copy this element with id donate_widget, and paste it before container with class at-content.
I think this should work!
I had some similar issues with z-index as well. Here you can find some information about it https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/09/the-z-index-css-property-a-comprehensive-look/
As for your solution, considering the button is fixed position for the whole web page (not just one section) you could maybe move it up in the HTML tree. In other words, make it a direct descendant of the body element - or row, or something which is above your other elements.
I found it. So I went to the parent element and the div with the id fws_577e3c5a64f62 that contains the button should have the high z-index. This seems to fix the problem for me.
I have this page where I tried to create a on page pop-up for an image using JS/JQuery, following this example (http://www.jqueryscript.net/lightbox/Simple-jQuery-Plugin-For-Opening-A-Popup-Window-On-Page-load.html).
Although I succeeded on it, when I try to implement it on my customer page, some divs are on front of my pop-up, no matter how high I configure the "z-index" for it. Also, these divs seem to be dinamically generated, as they have the "wrap" id div around that I can't find on my .php file for this page.
So, no matter what I do, these images are on front of my pop-up (except if I remove them using the "Inspect element" tool or change the z-index on them with Inspect Element, changing the inline style for this automatically generated "wrap" div).
This is the page without any changes on "Inspect Element", the white image boxes with the red arrows are the problem here (they belong to the page under the pop-up and I need them to be under the pop-up): http://imgur.com/waB1igo
This is what happens if I change the z-index of the automatically generated div "wrap" that I can find searching the code with "Inspect element" for one of the boxes (the first one): imgur.com/lDk1eRA
So, any of you guys have a tip for me on how to solve this problem?
I've already tried to create new css rules for this div or the img's tags, using the "!important" and these kind of things, without result.
Thanks very much in advance and sorry for english errors,
Matheus Barreto.
You might want to try setting the position property of the overlay to absolute. Images that have their positions set to absolute will get on top of everything that is not set to position absolute or fixed which can be very annoying. You might need to work around a bit with centering it or other issues that come from setting its position to absolute but this should work.
Try to make sure your overlay DIVs are outside wrappers, inside the </body> tag, before closing scripts... If the DIV is inside another that has a lower z-index, it won't "pop out" of it.
Also, you may try really high z-index, such as 8000 or higher. You should be able to use up to 65535 (higher depending on the browser's implementation).
It's worth noting that you should have a plan for z indexes of fixed/absolutely positioned items.
I have a wordpress theme that i'm building but i've hit a snag with some code and can't seem to get my div to expand correctly. I've tried clearing the floats at different positions, i've tried overflow: hidden, but nothing seems to work.
What i'm trying to do is have the content slide in from either side based on what header you click. The content is based on a wordpress post for each link. So the client can easilly edit it to any size.
Because of this it isn't viable to use pixels in the sizing of it. And i know that absolute positioning means that pixels are very nearly the only option.
I've messed with everything i can think of in firebug and just cannot get it to expand.
You'll find the site here: http://tinyurl.com/okd5wnf
However i couldn't get this to work either. Maybe that'll give you a clue as to what might be wrong.
I know it's a long winded post, and i apologise. If i have time later, i should be able to make a jsfiddle. However time is short at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.
Your problems stems from setting the <div class="box"></div>'s position property to absolute. Give the parent element(<div id="body-wrapper"></div>) overflow-x:hidden; to hide children that are not being displayed, and then use negative margins to position child elements within the viewport (the parent element). This is basically how most sliders work.
Remove position absolute from box class. please also mention what desired layout you need for content. we will suggest you classes for that.
Romove position:absolute from div.box
I guess that's all.
We are making this template in our language, Persian, that is right-to-left (RTL). Template address
Now, all parts are RTL, except that the submenu that opens to the right side,
Question: What changes should be made to this css file of the template, so that submenu width will be the same as its menu width? Or: How can the submenu be made to open on the left side?
Be aware that am not talking about the text in the submenu (text is rtl now as you see in picture)
Just a thought off the top of my head ...
I suspect you would adjust this line:
width: 140px; /*width of sub menus*/
to reflect a narrower width for your needs.
If you need to do this dynamically, you may have to do some work with Javascript to check the text being applied, then adjust the class reference to a custom class reference ... OR ... apply the new width to the element directly ... once the drop down entries have been filled.
Ah, ok, I see now. The problem here is that with the particular component you are using, you cannot adjust it with only CSS. The reason why is that the Javascript completely rewrites your CSS for that portion of the menu every time a user hovers their mouse over it. You're going to have to do some adjustment inside the Javascript to solve this.
There are several ways to go about this, I'm only going to get into one of them.
One way to solve this is adjust how the menu is rewriting it's CSS on the fly for the submenu. In this case, you can have the Javascript write a negative value in for the "left:" CSS element attribute to have the submenu position itself to open as you're wanting. Note: With this solution, this may not work in older Internet Explorer browsers - I'm not sure if that's a concern here. However, it will work just fine in the modern browsers (at least the ones I've been poking about with).
Open up your copy of the ddsmoothmenu.js file, that's the little bugger that is causing all the problems here.
The change needs to be done in the
$curobj.hover(function(e){..})
function. Stay with me, I'll explain...
That function is calculating the starting left position of your submenu once the user positions their mouse over the main menu choice. Namely, this line here is the culprit:
var menuleft=header.istopheader && setting.orientation!='v'? 0 : header._dimensions.w
As you can see, it is returning a '0' for you, which means it will anchor the left side of the submenu, forcing it to spill out to the right like it does now.
However, fear not!
Since you need the submenu to anchor on the right side and spill out to the left instead, we simply need to change this from assuming '0' to a formula with a little intelligence behind it.
What we need, is for the Javascript to find the correct position to anchor the submenu on the right. We do this by helping the routing understand what the "right side" of the "header" element is.
To find this, we simply take the width of the header, remove from that the left offset of the a-href tag that actually contains the header text (this is in case of any margins that exist - which this has some set in the CSS) and then remove the actual width of the submenu UL tag itself. Now as a sidenote, I wish I didn't have to use something so imprecise as assuming the header is the first child, but... eh... sometimes you work with what you got.
So comment out the line I mentioned above, and put this line in instead:
var menuleft=((header._dimensions.w-header.childNodes[0].offsetLeft)-header._dimensions.subulw);
And from what I see, it should open out towards the left as you were needing it to do in the first place.
Hope this answer helps more than my previous one.
I'm working on a script that fades in and out both an image and a div I have set behind the image when you hover over the image. I'm having two problems:
The fades on the image and div don't seem to move at the same speed even though I have them set to.
I can't figure out how to get the div's to only show for the image you hover over. If I could type ("this" div.info) as an object, it would work fine. Is there a way to do that?
I can't get $(".info",this), $(this).find(".info"), or $(".info", $(this).closest("li")) to work.
Result: I have found the solution. I was able to get it to work by using lthibodeaux's suggestion and using $(".info", $(this).closest("li")) as the object and making all the functions .fadeTo go here for the result:
http://jsfiddle.net/Z5p4K/7/
Edit:
I found out the image and the div animations really were moving at the same speed, just the image only had it's z-index set on hover, so if you took your mouse off the image while the animation was running, it would appear to move at a different speed than the div when really the image was behind the div, it only appeared to be moving at different speeds because when the div became invisible you could see the image behind it but when it became opaque, the image was gone (making you think the image became invisible when really the div was in front of the image). This was easily fixed by moving the the z-index property from ul.columns li:hover img to ul.columns li img.
The div only had a border around it while you hovered over it. This was easily fixed by changing the border properties from ul.columns li:hover .info to ul.columns li .info
Check out the final version here: http://jsfiddle.net/tV9Bw/
This is the final version because I can no longer find any problems with any of the code; everything is optimized, there are no glitches, and it looks great.
Thanks to everyone who answered and to Yi Jiang for editing this post with better formatting. I'm new to this site so I wasn't sure how to properly format my question.
and a Huge thanks to artyom.stv for fixing the last glitch in the script that I didn't know how to fix.
You've got the general idea. One thing you should know about a selector is that you are able to define a second argument as the scope of the selector, i.e.
$("selectorString", scopeObject)
In your case, make the second argument $(this).closest("li"). It will find the list item containing your image and select .info descendants of that container:
$(".info", $(this).closest("li")).fadeIn(1000);
Change $(".info") to $(this).find(".info") and all will be sweet.
Yes you can use something like $(this).find(".info") as mentioned by Bundy
but as The jQuery constructor accepts a 2nd parameter which can be used to override the context of the selection.
You can also do something like this:
$(".info",this)
