I am building a set of radio buttons using the ngRepeat directive and I need to make it horizontal. I'm not sure it's possible to do that with ngRepeat, since each instance gets its own scope. The below structure creates a new div for each item in the options array and they're displayed vertically.
<div ng-repeat="option in options">
<input type="radio" role="radio" />
<span>label</span>
</div>
Does anyone know any tricks for creating horizontal radio buttons?
Angular doesn't really affect style in this way. Give your div float:left or display:inline-block in its style.
It should be noted that AngularJS from version 1.1.6 up allows one to do this much more cleanly:
Assume
$scope.data = [{val:0,txt:'Foo'},{val:1,txt:'Bar'},{val:2,txt:'Baz'}];
then you can use repeat-start and repeat-end like this:
<input ng-repeat-start="item in data" type="radio" value="{{item.val}}">
<span ng-repeat-end>{{item.txt}}</span>

I have a page where I want to update a form with several radio buttons. I query an api, and use the returned array of objects to populate the current values for the radio buttons. The problem that I have is that only the last set of radio buttons actually shows the value. This is the code that I have (I am using [[ and ]] for the start and end symbols for angular):
<fieldset data-ng-repeat="s in sections">
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h2>[[ s.section.name ]]</h2>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Field Item -->
<div class="form-group m-b-20 bg-light" data-ng-repeat="f in s.fields">
<div class="col-md-12 m-b-30">
<h4>[[ f.field.name ]]</h2>
<input type="text" data-ng-model="f.comments" class="form-control input-md underline" placeholder="Comments">
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3">
<input type="radio" name="section-[[s.section.section_id]]-field-[[f.field.field_id]]" value="pass" class="form-control" data-ng-model="f.field_condition">
<label class="eval-pass"><i class="fa fa-check-circle green"></i> Pass</label>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3">
<input type="radio" name="section-[[s.section.section_id]]-field-[[f.field.field_id]]" value="fail" class="form-control" data-ng-model="f.field_condition">
<label class="eval-fail"> <i class="fa fa-exclamation-circle red"></i> Fail</label>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3">
<input type="radio" name="section-[[s.section.section_id]]-field-[[f.field.field_id]]" value="n/a" class="form-control" data-ng-model="f.field_condition">
<label class="eval-na"> <i class="fa fa-circle blue"></i> N/A</label>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3">
<input type="radio" name="section-[[s.section.section_id]]-field-[[f.field.field_id]]" value="caution" class="form-control" data-ng-model="f.field_condition">
<label class="eval-caution"><i class="fa fa-exclamation-triangle yellow"></i> Caution</label>
</div>
</div>
[[ f.field_condition ]]
<hr>
</fieldset>
So basically, I have several sections, and each section has several fields. Each field has it's own radio button group (I am using the section and field ids to name the radio group). What I currently see is only the last field in each section actually shows the selected radio button. The other fields don't have any selection, even though the value for ng-model definitely does (I am showing the value of f.field_condition just to make sure there is a value).
For each field, I can see that the model is set. And if I select a value manually, I can see that the model changes, so it seems to me that the model is setup correctly. I just don't know why it won't initially show as selected for all rows but the last one.
I should also mention that if I save the form even with the missing radio button selections, the database is updated properly (it doesn't set the values to null, and if I manually change the selected value, it is updated in the db as well).
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
EDIT
Here is a fiddle for this, although, it is working as expected in the fiddle. http://jsfiddle.net/dq8r196v/367/
I tried using the static data that I used in the fiddle, but I am still having the same problem. Does anyone know if this could be a CSS problem? The radio buttons are styled, and I didn't write the HTML or CSS.
UPDATE
I am still having this issue, so I built a new angular app and only used the code that is included in the fiddle that I have created. I am having the same problem with this new app, even though the same code works in the fiddle. I really don't understand what's happening here, but if anyone could shed some light, I would really appreciate it.
I have literally copied and pasted the code from my fiddle into a new angular app, and only the last group of radio buttons in each section is showing the value in the app.
Here is my complete code for the new angular app if someone else wants to try it out and see exactly what is happening: https://pastebin.com/qSR33yfM
I created the app on a single page for simplicity.
Here is the link to a pastebin with the exact json that I am using in my app: https://pastebin.com/utfVVQfT
I fixed the problem you're having by simply adding an array of objects ($scope.values) representing the different radio button options, and using an ng-repeat to create your radio buttons. See the following for the updated code: https://pastebin.com/s3hNzaXX
I know there are semantics around ng-repeat creating new $scopes, and imagine there is a conflict in scopes with your nested ng-repeats where it's binding to the radio buttons incorrectly and at a scope different than you want (the section level ng-repeat).
To confirm this suspicion, you could convert all of your interpolations in the code to use functions and console.log s and f at different points and confirm that field_condition is being set at a level you didn't intend.
Either way, it' best practice to create your radio buttons through data (and using ng-repeat), as is done with the $scope.values array, and a good side effect to doing this is not only can you update the different value options using data through AJAX or however you would like, but you won't have weird angular scoping issues as you're experiencing in your current code above.
I have the view below. What I want is to change the class of the div based on whether or not the radio button inside it is checked. What am I doing wrong? Note: I'm a newbie to AngularJS and this project is me trying to learn Angular..
<div class="col-use-select" ng-repeat="show in shows" ng-class="{show[name]:'test'}[tvshow.chosen]">
<input id="{{show.name}}" type="radio" name="checkbox" ng-model="tvshow.chosen" ng-value="show.name">
<label for="{{show.name}}">{{show.name}}</label>
</div>
You are applying ng-class to div of ng-repeat hence it is assigned to all div's. You need to create a child div, add ng-class to that div with your condition. it will toggle the class of only that child div
<div class="col-use-select" ng-repeat="show in shows">
<div ng-class="test:tvshow.chosen">
<input id="{{show.name}}" type="radio" name="checkbox" ng-model="tvshow.chosen" ng-value="show.name">
<label for="{{show.name}}">{{show.name}}</label>
</div>
</div>
What I got from the question is that you want to change the class on a particular radio button selection. The html markup that you have shown is not a valid one when assigning a class on conditional basis in angular.
Please find one below which will change the css class of the div on selection of option and then choose another class on the basis of alternate selection
<div ng-app ng-controller="test">
<div class="col-use-select" ng-repeat="show in shows" ng-class="{test:tvshowChosen=='abc',test2:tvshowChosen=='def'}">
<input id="{{show.name}}" type="radio" name="checkbox" ng-model="$parent.tvshowChosen" ng-value="show.name">
<label for="{{show.name}}">{{show.name}}</label>
</div>
</div>
In this example the line:
ng-class="{test:tvshowChosen=='abc',test2:tvshowChosen=='def'}"
Signifies that if tvshowChosen value is abc then test class will be applied or in the second case test2 will be applied.
This line:
ng-model="$parent.tvshowChosen"
Over here $parent is used as ng-repeat creates its own isolated scope. So $parent will target the parent scope and not individual isolated scopes so that the selection can be a valid one.

This question already has an answer here:
Prevent event bubbling when using the checked binding in knockoutjs
(1 answer)
Closed 8 years ago.
In my view model I have a boolean property that's visualized by a checkbox in the view. I want the user to be able to click on the containing element as well to toggle the property, but that poses problems when the user clicks the checkbox: the change is not registered then.
Consider this view:
<div class="my-option" data-bind="click: toggleOption1">
<input type="checkbox" data-bind="checked: isOption1Checked" />
Entire div is clickable to select this option.
</div>
With this view model:
var ViewModel = function() {
var self = this;
self.isOption1Checked = ko.observable(false);
self.toggleOption1 = function(){
self.isOption1Checked(!self.isOption1Checked());
};
};
As you can see in this corresponding jsfiddle, this will not allow you to click on the checkbox to change the boolean observable. This kinda makes sense to me, probably the click handler changes the value, but the checked binding also handles the change and reverts it.
The general solution I felt I needed was a one way checked binding or something of the sort, so I tried using the attr binding:
<div class="my-option" data-bind="click: toggleOption1">
<input type="checkbox"
data-bind="attr: { checked: isOption1Checked() ? 'checked' : '???'" />
Entire div is clickable to select this option.
</div>
However, this will not work: there is no checked="false" option in html. You just omit the checked attribute altogether. I don't think the attr binding can do that however.
One other workaround I thought of was to create my own binding (possibly based on / delegating the read bit to the default checked binding), but it feels like overkill. Am I missing an obvious, elegant Knockout solution?
My current workaround (trying to evade creating such a custom binding) involves some elaborate view logic:
<div class="my-option" data-bind="click: toggleOption1">
<!-- ko if: isOption1Checked -->
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked" />
<!-- /ko -->
<!-- ko if: !isOption1Checked() -->
<input type="checkbox" />
<!-- /ko -->
Entire div is clickable to select this option.
</div>
This works, but is very verbose to my taste.
Any other elegant, concise way to handle this?
Right, just after posting and searching some more I found the answer in another question. Here's the specifics for the scenario from my question:
<div class="my-option" data-bind="click: toggleOption1">
<input type="checkbox"
data-bind="checked: isOption1Checked,
click: function() { return true; },
clickBubble: false" />
Entire div is clickable to select this option.
</div>
I'll leave this answer and question here as a duplicate, should it help a random Googling internet user that words his question similar to mine as opposed to similar to the other one.
I have several divs in my html.
<div ng-click="remeber_gift({{gift.id}})">div1</div>
<div ng-click="remeber_gift({{gift.id}})">div2</div>
<div ng-click="remeber_gift({{gift.id}})">div3</div>
I want to add hidden filed to clicked div with angular.js and remove all other hidden fields from other divs.
Is this possible at all to do with Angular.js ?
In jquery simple .append is enough.
You might be able to.. but it wouldn't be very clear or succinct Angular code. You want to avoid DOM manipulation like this as much as you can with Angular. If you need to have a hidden field with a gift id, you could have just one in your view and ng-bind it to a variable in your scope.
ex <input type="hidden" ng-bind="saved_gift" />
Then your remeber_gift function could just update that saved_gift to the selected gift.id.
I am using this plugin to customize check boxes and radio buttons on a page.
These radio buttons are in a div#Main element which comprise of some other HTML elements also. I need to disable everything in this div on a button click (I am using jQuery). For this I have the following code,
HTML
<input type="button" id="DisableElements" value="Disable elements" />
<div id="Main">
<input type="radio" class="styled" name="reg-all"/>
<input type="radio" class="styled" name="reg-all"/>
<select id="MyList">
<option value="1">Choice-1</option>
<option value="2">Choice-2</option>
</select>
<textarea id="Comments" rows="4" cols="5"></textarea>
</div>
Script
$(function(){
$('#DisableElements').click(function(){
$('#Main').find('*').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
});
});
Issue: Everything got disabled correctly except the radio buttons.
Behind the scenes, the plugin script hides the actual radio button and
put a span over the radio buttons like a blanket. This span has
got a background image sprite with different states (on and off) which
gets updated accordingly on radio button selection. This was the
working of this plugin.
I could have used the inbuilt method of the plugin to disable/destroy the functionality but I did not find any method for this.
images loads with little delay after the DOM has finished loading,
so you can try calling your function in $(window).load().
hope it will help.
The solution i made can be thought of as a patch but works nice (for my scenario at least). What should have been the right approach for this would be using some existing API method to reflect the change, something like disable() or similar but i did not find such method or something like this.
Solution: Making the radio buttons appear like disable (non clickable).
Because i do not want to dig into the plugin js file. For this i made a transparent div with some width and height enough to cover the radio buttons and place it over them like a layer between radio buttons and cursor. This div is hidden by default and show this while making controls disable. keeping it short and sweet, here are the code changes.
HTML
<input type="button" id="DisableElements" value="Disable elements" />
<div id="Main">
<div id="Blanket"></div>
<input type="radio" class="styled" name="reg-all"/>
<input type="radio" class="styled" name="reg-all"/>
<select id="MyList">
<option value="1">Choice-1</option>
<option value="2">Choice-2</option>
</select>
<textarea id="Comments" rows="4" cols="5"></textarea>
</div>
CSS - for blanket div
#Blanket
{
position:absolute; /*Imp: otherwise it will disturb the UI*/
width:100px;
height:100px;
display:none;
/* top/left adjustments, if required! */
}
Script
$(function(){
$('#DisableElements').click(function(){
$('#Blanket').show();
$('#Main').find('*').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
});
});
This solution however needed to drop the fear of what if someone using developer tools to out smart the application but that does not matter any way. Besides, you can-not 100% block the user from using such tools.
Another solution which worked and looks more appropriate: Placing invisible blanket over input controls sounds like a patch and can be easily snapped. The plugin script adds a CSS class named styled and requires to add following styles to achieve customized look and feel.
input.styled
{
display: none; // hides the parent input element
}
Because of this, even if we switch button states to disable, the changes did not reflect because the parent element was hidden making the other listeners difficult to attach. By changing the styles to following, everything worked.
input.styled
{
position: absolute;
opacity: 0;
}
It makes the parent input element invisible but completely active on DOM behind the scenes.
