I am trying to create a jquery to click a hyperlink but nothing seems to be working.
HTML
<main id="main" class="main-content">
<div class="container">
<div class="warning" role="alert">
no avail
Show all
</div>
what I was trying
$(".warning a").click()
Any suggestions?
Note that jQuery-initiated "click" events will fire the event but will not cause navigation to occur.
Instead you can read the link's HREF attribute and directly set the window location:
// The click event:
$('a').on("click", function() {
console.log("Click event fired");
})
var demo1 = function() {
// This will trigger the click event, but will not navigate.
$(".warning a").click()
}
var demo2 = function() {
// This will navigate but will not trigger the click event. (If you need both to happen, trigger the click event first, and consider delaying the window location update if necessary.)
var url = $(".warning a").attr("href")
window.location = url;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<main id="main" class="main-content">
<div class="container">
<div class="warning" role="alert">
Show all
</div>
</div>
</main>
<!-- for demo: -->
<button onclick="demo1()">Won't work</button>
<button onclick="demo2()">Will work</button>
jQuery's .click() (without arguments) is a shortcut for .trigger("click"):
function(a,c) {
return arguments.length > 0 ? this.on(b, null, a, c) : this.trigger(b)
}
Therefore, it will not actually click the element, but just call the click event handlers attached to it, as you can see here:
const $link = $("a");
$link.on("click", () => {
console.log("Clicked? Not really...");
});
$link.click();
$link.trigger("click");
Show all
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
You need to get a reference to the actual DOM element and then call HTMLElement.click() on that:
$("a")[0].click();
Show all
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
You can user the vanilla click method:
document.querySelector('.warning > a').click()
// equivalent jquery
//$('.warning > a')[0].click()
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="warning" role="alert">
no avail
Show all
</div>
Whenever you select div class with hyperlink there you get array because you can have multiple hyperlinks so you need to add somthing like below
Code
$('.warning a')[0].click();
For reference link

If I need to redirect, I typically use window.location.href
window.location.href=$(".warning a").attr('href');
How would I fire a button click event when a particular button is pressed (in this case the accept button).
I've tried the following but with little success:
Javascript
$('.notification-expand .Request .active-item > .accept-button').click(function () {
alert("hello");
});
HTML
<div class="notification-expand Request active-item" style="display: block;">
<div class="notification-body"></div>
<br>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-success accept-button btn-sm">Accept</button>
</p>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6 expand-col">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-warning barter-button btn-sm">Barter</button>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 expand-col">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger reject-button btn-sm">Reject</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Fiddle here
You have error in your selector , it should look like this:
$('.notification-expand.Request.active-item .accept-button').click(function () {
alert("hello");
});
You need to concatenate all classes without spaces to catch your target button
$('button.accept-button', '.notification-expand.Request.active-item').click(function () {
alert("hello");
});
See the updated snippet
Notice the syntax of ".className1.className2" instead of ".className1 .className2"
should be something like:
$('button.accept-button').click(function(){ ... });
there is really no need to go down the whole list if this is the whole code
----edit----
so when there are more items but only 1 active(i guess) then just target the active-item class:
$('div.active-item button.accept-button').click(function(){ ... });
try
$('.accept-button', $('.notification-expand.active-item')).click(function () {
alert("hello");
});
or
$('.notification-expand.active-item')).find('.accept-button').click(function () {
alert("hello");
});
Just give the button an id and reference back to that.
HTML
<button id="btnSubmitData"> Ok Button </button>
JQuery Code
$('#btnSubmitData').click(function(){ ... });
You can also have multiple button Ids bind to the same event:
$('#btnAccept, #btnReject, #btnWarning').click(function () {
alert("hello");
});
Take a look at the updated Working Fiddle.
I'm having troubles creating an exit button for the following script.
I'm using popup.js from http://docs.toddish.co.uk/popup/.
It sais that in order to do it we should use popup.close() from inside the object. But there are no examples and I can't get it to work. Does anyone have an idea?
JSFiddle link = http://jsfiddle.net/andrewallen817/bedhhu1o/3/
Html:
<a href=#txt class="popup" >Click here</a>
<div id="txt" style="display:none">
<h1>This is a title</h1>
<p>this is some text</p>
<button>close</button>
</div>
JS
$(function(){
$('.popup').popup();
});
I fixed it for you by looking at the doc. JSfiddle
$(function () {
$('.popup').popup({
afterOpen: function () {
var popup = this;
$('button').click(function () {
popup.close();
});
}
});
});
You might want to specify which button you want to give the popup.close() or else every button will have it.
I have a list box in the bootstrap modal and a button.
When the button is clicked a new button gets rendered inside a div in the modal.
When I close the modal and reopen it, the last operation performed on the modal like the button rendered earlier is still present in the modal.
How do reset the modal so that when the modal is opened again, the button is not present and user can again select the option from the list box and click on the button to render a new button and so on.

Why doesn't this work?
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
$("#myModal").on("hidden.bs.modal", function (e) {
console.log("Modal hidden");
$("#placeholder-div1").html("");
});
});
</script>
Just reset any content manually when modal is hidden:
$(".modal").on("hidden.bs.modal", function(){
$(".modal-body1").html("");
});
There is more events. More about them here
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".modal").on("hidden.bs.modal", function() {
$(".modal-body1").html("Where did he go?!?!?!");
});
});

Tried it and working well
$('#MyModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
$(this).find('form').trigger('reset');
})
reset is dom build-in funtion, you can also use $(this).find('form')[0].reset();
And Bootstrap's modal class exposes a few events for hooking into modal functionality, detail at here.
hide.bs.modal This event is fired immediately when the hide instance
method has been called.
hidden.bs.modal This event is fired when the modal has finished being
hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).
What helped for me, was to put the following line in the ready function:
$(document).ready(function()
{
..
...
// codes works on all bootstrap modal windows in application
$('.modal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function(e)
{
$(this).removeData();
}) ;
...
..
});
When a modal window is closed and opened again, the previous entered and selected values, will be reset to the initial values.
I hope this will help you as well!
Try cloning, then removing and re-adding the element when the modal is hidden. This should keep all events, though I haven't thoroughly tested this with all versions of everything.
var originalModal = $('#myModal').clone();
$(document).on('#myModal', 'hidden.bs.modal', function () {
$('#myModal').remove();
var myClone = originalModal.clone();
$('body').append(myClone);
});
To reset all the input fields in a modal use the following.
$(".modal-body input").val("")
Here's an alternative solution.
If you're doing a lot of changes to the DOM (add/removing elements and classes), there could be several things that need to be "reset." Rather than clearing each element when the modal closes, you could reset the entire modal everytime it's reopened.
Sample code:
(function(){
var template = null
$('.modal').on('show.bs.modal', function (event) {
if (template == null) {
template = $(this).html()
} else {
$(this).html(template)
}
// other initialization here, if you want to
})
})()
You can still write your initial state in HTML without worrying too much about what will happen to it later. You can write your UI JS code without worrying about having to clean up later. Each time the modal is relaunched it will be reset to the exact same state it was in the first time.
Edit: Here's a version that should handle multiple modals (I haven't tested it)...
(function(){
$('.modal').on('show.bs.modal', function (event) {
if (!$(this).data('template')) {
$(this).data('template', $(this).html())
} else {
$(this).html($this.data('template'))
}
// other initialization here, if you want to
})
})()
(function(){
$(".modal").on("hidden.bs.modal", function(){
$(this).removeData();
});
});
This is perfect solution to remove contact while hide/close bootstrap modal.
That's works for me accurately
let template = null;
$('.modal').on('show.bs.modal', function(event) {
template = $(this).html();
});
$('.modal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function(e) {
$(this).html(template);
});
also, you can clone your modal before open ;)
$('#myModal')
.clone()
.modal()
.on('hidden.bs.modal', function(e) {
$(this).remove();
});
Reset form elements ( Works with bootstrap 5 as well). Sample code :
$(document).on("hidden.bs.modal", "#modalid", function () {
$(this).find('#form')[0].reset();
});
you can try this
$('body').on('hidden.bs.modal', '.modal', function () {
$(this).removeData('bs.modal');
});
It will remove all the data from the model and reset it.
I am using BS 3.3.7 and i have a problem when i open a modal then close it, the modal contents keep on the client side no html("") no clear at all. So i used this to remove completely the code inside the modal div.
Well, you may ask why the padding-right code, in chrome for windows when open a modal from another modal and close this second modal the stays with a 17px padding right.
Hope it helps...
$(document)
.on('shown.bs.modal', '.modal', function () {
$(document.body).addClass('modal-open')
})
.on('hidden.bs.modal', '.modal', function () {
$(document.body).removeClass('modal-open')
$(document.body).css("padding-right", "0px");
$(this).removeData('bs.modal').find(".modal-dialog").empty();
})
Sample code:
$(document).on('hide.bs.modal', '#basicModal', function (e) {
$('#basicModal').empty();
});
The below statements show how to open/reopen Modal without using bootstrap.
Add two classes in css
And then use the below jQuery to reopen the modal if it is closed.
.hide_block
{
display:none !important;
}
.display_block
{
display:block !important;
}
$("#Modal").removeClass('hide_block');
$("#Modal").addClass('display_block');
$("Modal").show("slow");
It worked fine for me :)
Using BS 3.3.7
$("#yourModal").on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
$(this).data('bs.modal', null); // will clear all element inside modal
});
/* this will change the HTML content with the new HTML that you want to update in your modal without too many resets... */
var = ""; //HTML to be changed
$(".classbuttonClicked").click(function() {
$('#ModalDivToChange').html(var);
$('#myModal').modal('show');
});
Reset form inside the modal. Sample Code:
$('#myModal').on('hide.bs.modal', '#myModal', function (e) {
$('#myModal form')[0].reset();
});
To reset/clear all input fields from bootstrap modal use the following code:
$(".modal-body input").val("")
To hide/close bootstrap modal use the following code:
$('#yourModalId').modal('hide');

I'm trying implement a button inside a Colorbox that will update the modal and render a form.
An example of this is Pinterest's add functionality. "Homepage > Add a Pin > Pin URL"
I've tried copying Colorbox's inline HTML example.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".inline").colorbox({inline:true, width:"50%"});
$('a[rel="colorbox"]').live("click", function() {
$.colorbox({
open: true,
href: this.href
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
<div style='display:none'>
<div id='inline_content' style='padding:10px; background:#fff;'>
<p><strong>Add a Promotion</strong></p>
<p><a id="click" href="#" style='padding:5px; background:#ccc;'>Click me, it will be preserved!</a></p>
<p><strong>If you try to open a new ColorBox while it is already open, it will update itself with the new content.</strong></p>
<p>Updating Content Example:<br />
<a class="ajax" href="**shared/promotion_form**" rel="colorbox">Add a Promotion</a></p>
</div>
</div>
The problem is that the form is _promotion_form.html.erb so I can't link to it.
Try moving your selector up a level, and updating to jQuery 1.7.1
Maybe something like this:
$('body').on("click", "a[rel="colorbox"]", function() {
So this way you're watching the body for any element that has that selector "a[rel='colorbox']".
Hope this helps.
