I want dropdown menu also to be able to click the item. Example:
Menu item: Services
Sub items: - branding } These already have working links
- marketing }
But when I replace # with a link for Services, it does not work. when i click it nothing happens although if I right click and open in new tab it opens the URL.
I think it's related to the Javascript.
HTML:
<li class="dropdown">Services
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>YouTube</li>
<li>Twitter</li>
<li>Instagram</li>
<li>Facebook</li>
</ul>
Javascript:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.js-activated').dropdownHover({
instantlyCloseOthers: false,
delay: 0
}).dropdown();
$('.dropdown-menu a').click(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
});
this code:
$('.dropdown-menu a').click(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
disables the default action (redirecting) on a click on 'a' element within the menu.
hope that helps.

I have searched a lot for adding active class to the parent menu using javascript.
I found many more examples but not a single one is working for me, below is my code
HTML
<div id="menu1" class="hmenu">
<ul>
<li>Item1
<ul>
<li>SubItem1
<ul>
<li>SubSubItem1</li>
<li>SubSubItem2</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>SubItem2 </li>
<li>SubItem3
<ul>
<li>SubSubItem1</li>
<li>SubSubItem2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Item2</li>
<li>Item3
<ul>
<li>SubItem1
<ul>
<li>SubSubItem1</li>
<li>SubSubItem2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<br style="clear: left" />
</div>
My requirement is when i click on SubItem1 then both Item1 and SubItem1 should be active.
And when i click on SubSubItem1 then SubSubItem1 ,SubItem1 and Item1 should be active.
Means when click on any link then its all parent link and the same link should be active.
I have tried with this javascript code :
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.hmenu ul li ul').find('li').click(function () {
//removing the previous selected menu state
$('.hmenu').find('li.active').removeClass('active');
//adding the state for this parent menu
$(this).parents('li').addClass('active');
});
});
Actually i don't have any experience with javascript coding and unable to figure out the problem in my code.
Can anyone suggest me for the same.
The issue comes from .find('li').click().
As you use nestsed <li>, this will cause the event to be fired two times when you click on a child <li>. This causes problems. Can not you add the click() to <a> elements?
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.hmenu a').click(function () {
//removing the previous selected menu state
$('.hmenu').find('li.active').removeClass('active');
//adding the state for this parent menu
$(this).parents("li").addClass('active');
});
});
It works just fine: https://jsfiddle.net/6put8tdx/
Note that your page will be bumped to the top while clicking to a tab because of # anchor. If you want to prevent this, you may pass the event to the function .click(function (event) {...} and add event.preventDefault inside.
If you need the click target to be the LI element (as opposed to Delgan's answer)
you can use .not() over the targeted LI's parents to prevent messing with the bubbling event targets:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.hmenu').find('li').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault(); // Prevent page jumps due to anchors
var $par = $(event.target).parents("li"); // get list of parents
$(".hmenu .active").not( $par ).removeClass("active"); // not them
$(this).addClass('active'); // let the event propagation do the work
});
});
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.hmenu').find('li').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
var $par = $(event.target).parents("li");
$(".hmenu .active").not($par).removeClass("active");
$(this).addClass('active');
});
});
.active > a{
background: gold;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="menu1" class="hmenu">
<ul>
<li>Item1
<ul>
<li>SubItem1
<ul>
<li>SubSubItem1</li>
<li>SubSubItem2</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>SubItem2 </li>
<li>SubItem3
<ul>
<li>SubSubItem1</li>
<li>SubSubItem2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Item2</li>
<li>Item3
<ul>
<li>SubItem1
<ul>
<li>SubSubItem1</li>
<li>SubSubItem2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<br style="clear: left" />
</div>
To better understand the above
The following example works out-of-the-box, and the clicked one and all it's LI parents get the "active" class.
Why? Cause the event target is li, means any li of .hmenu - so that click is attached to any of them, and clicking the subsub LI the event will propagate to the LI parents - triggering the same click behavior (this add class)!
$(".hmenu").on("click", "li", function(){
$(this).addClass("active"); // Wow! Event propagation rulez!!
});
But we need to remove existing .active and here it gets messy...
$(".hmenu").on("click", "li", function(){
$(".active").removeClass("active"); // triggered on every event bubble :(
$(this).addClass("active"); // leaving only the main parent with active class
});
That's caused by the concurrency that happens while the event bubbles and triggers the same actions for the parent elements.
One way to prevent that concurrency would be using a setTimeout of 1ms:
$(".hmenu").on("click", "li", function(){
$(".active").removeClass("active");
setTimeout(function(){ // Let the previous finish the bubbling mess
$(this).addClass("active"); // Yey! all fine! Every LI has the active class
}, 1);
});
But here the timeout of 1ms can lead to visual "blinking" issues.
Try this:
$(function () {
$("li a")
.on("click", function () {
$(this).toggleClass("active");
$(this).closest("ul").parent().children("li a").toggleClass("active")
.parent().parent().parent().children("li a").toggleClass("active");
});
});

Traverse from the clicked element. And use toggleClass() to avoid the mundane checking if hasclass removeClass ...
I have a problem with a drop down menu that must remain open to the click.
After the menu is open, you can click the link inside and the menu item just clicked.
How can I do to remedy the preventDefault ?
Menu HTML:
<nav class="main-menu">
<ul id="" class="menu">
<li>
Menu One
<div class="sub-menu">
<ul>
<li>test test test</li>
... More links ...
</ul>
</div>
</li>
... More items ...
</ul>
</nav>
This is a portion of code
$('.main-menu li a').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$('.main-menu').find('.sub-menu').removeClass('open');
$(this).parent().find('.sub-menu').addClass('open');
});
An example is visible here JSFIDDLE
Just remove
$('.main-menu').find('.sub-menu').removeClass('open');
Here is a fiddle you can check out
Get rid of event.preventDefault();
Instead do like this
<a href="#" onclick="return false">
Then give each main menu a class name. And call the click event on that class.
https://jsfiddle.net/btevfik/9m9rufqx/3/
You can replace your selector with a more targeted (.menu > li > a) :
$('.menu > li > a').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$('.sub-menu.open').removeClass('open');
$(this).parent().find('.sub-menu').addClass('open');
});

I write this function for open and close sub menu and it works fine but I have this problem:
If user click a submenu item and open the page(this menu is in master page) the submenu doesnt close. How can I do that??
fiddler Link (more clear with css)
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.has-sub > a').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var submenu = $(this).next();
if (submenu.is(":visible")) {
submenu.slideUp();
$(this).closest("li").removeClass("active");
}
else {
submenu.slideDown();
$(this).closest("li").addClass("active");
}
});
});
///my html menu it is in my masterpage(i use mvc4 razor)
<div id='cssmenu'>
<ul>
<li class="has-sub"><a href='#'><span>submenu</span></a>
<ul class="subbg">
<li><span>aaaa</span></li>
<li><span>bbbb</span></li>
<li><span>cccc</span></li>
<li><span>ddddd</span></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span>wwww</span></li>
</ul>

Here I have a list, what I want to do is I need to change the list ( li ) background color to different one after click on a specific list item. the thing is once it click on the link page will be redirected and refresh. please can me suggest a solution for to get this done?
<div id="main-menu">
<ul id="main-menu-list">
<li id="menu-home">Home</li>
<li id="menu-profile">My Profile</li>
<li id="menu-dashboard">My Dashboard</li>
<li id="menu-search">Search</li>
</ul>
</div>
what i did for this :
Java Script :
var make_button_active = function()
{
//Get item siblings
var siblings =($(this).siblings());
//Remove active class on all buttons
siblings.each(function (index)
{
$(this).removeClass('active');
}
)
//Add the clicked button class
$(this).addClass('active');
}
//Attach events to menu
$(document).ready(
function()
{
$("#main-menu li").click(make_button_active);
}
)
CSS :
#main-menu-list li.active {
background: #0040FF;
}
It's a little difficult to tell exactly what you want to do, but here's some quick and dirty (and untested) code:
/// when we click on an `a` tag inside the `#main-menu-list`...
$('#main-menu-list').on('click', 'a', function(e) {
// stop the link from firing
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
// change the list item's background to green
$(this).closest('li').addClass('myClassName').css('background-color', 'green');
// do anything else, e.g. load in pages via ajax...
});
You could use CSS to apply the green background color, instead of jQuery:
.myClassName { background-color: green; }
This will stop the page from navigating, and I don't know if that's your intention. If you want to check the currently-loaded page against the menu to find the current item, you could do this (on page load) instead:
var currentPage = window.location.pathname;
$('#main-menu-list').find('a[href^="' + currentPage + '"]').closest('li').addClass('active');
EDIT:
Your amended Javascript code can be simplified to the following:
$('#main-menu li').on('click', 'a', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
// only do the following if the clicked link isn't already active
if(!$(this).closest('li').hasClass('active')) {
$(this).closest('ul').find('.active').removeClass('active');
$(this).closest('li').addClass('active');
// load in your content via ajax, etc.
}
});
JSFiddle example
For each page you can add a class to the current list item that has "where the user is"..
CSS:
.selectedItem{
background-color: orange;//whatever color your want for the selected tab..
}
Then for each of your pages,
say you're in Dashboard.html
your menu code will look like:
<div id="main-menu">
<ul id="main-menu-list">
<li id="menu-home">Home</li>
<li id="menu-profile">My Profile</li>
<li id="menu-dashboard" class="selectedItem">My Dashboard</li>
<li id="menu-search">Search</li>
</ul>
</div>
in profile.html:
<div id="main-menu">
<ul id="main-menu-list">
<li id="menu-home">Home</li>
<li id="menu-profile" class="selectedItem">My Profile</li>
<li id="menu-dashboard">My Dashboard</li>
<li id="menu-search">Search</li>
</ul>
</div>
and so on..
You need to change the background color when the document is loaded (i.e. in document.ready).
Then you need a mechanism to connect the currently loaded page to one of your list items.
$(document).ready(function(){
//get the url from the current location or in some other way that suits your solution
//perhaps use window.location.pathname
var moduleId = "dashboard" // hardcoded to dashboard to make the point :);
$("#menu-"+moduleId).css("background-color", "#ccc");
});

I have set up a jquery hover show and hide function click here for site however it doesn't work the way i want it to. When you hover over the link "store" it reveals the hidden div, which is a submenu, once the mouse cursor has been moved from the link "store" the hidden div slides.
I want the submenu to stay activate unless one the links in the submenu have been click on or the mouse cursor is have been moved outside of the submenu area.
below is a snippet of my code...
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".slidingDiv").hide();
$(".show_hide").show();
$('.show_hide').hover(function(){
$(".slidingDiv").slideToggle();
});
$('.slidingDiv').mouseout(function(){
$(".slidingDiv").slideUp();
});
});
<div id="menu_store" class="slidingDiv transparent">
<div class="menu">
<h3>clothing</h3>
<ul class="navigation">
<li>sweats / knitwear</li>
<li>shirts</li>
<li>denim</li>
<li>outwear</li>
<li>footwear</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="menu">
<h3>lifestyle</h3>
<ul class="navigation">
<li>books</li>
<li>art</li>
<li>objects</li>
</ul>
<div id="menu">
<ul class="cl">
<li><a class="show_hide" href="#">store</a></li>
<li>daily</li>
<li>featured</li>
<li>contact</li>
</ul>
Does anyone have a solution for this...?
I figured it out. http://jsfiddle.net/vtFfv/
Relevant documentation: http://api.jquery.com/mouseleave/
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".slidingDiv").hide();
$(".show_hide").show();
$('.show_hide').mouseenter(function () {
$(".slidingDiv").slideDown();
$(".slidingDiv").mouseleave(function () {
$(".slidingDiv").slideUp();
});
$('.slidingDiv a').each(function () {
$(this).click(function () {
$(".slidingDiv").slideUp();
});
});
});
});
When you hide slidingDiv, mouse events aren't registered. So the solution is to attach a mouseleave event to it once you decide to show it (that is, on mouseenter). And then registering clicking on the links is easy.
