How to prevent Jqtouch autoscrolling to div with current class? - javascript

I'm using Jqtouch to design a iphone app.
As I'm using a standard header/toolbar at the top, I want to simply have it fixed there without moving. I found out how to do this by creating a div with class toolbar and setting CSS display to block and min-height to 0px with important.
However, when it starts up and every time I change pages (technically, it's making different divs display and not display(?)), it autoscrolls to the top of the div that it just changed to, and I need to scroll up to see the toolbar (the toolbar is at the very top, above the div).
How do I make it actually scroll up to the toolbar or top of the page?
Here's a simplified layout of my current code: (For body section)
<body>
<div id="toolbar" class="toolbar" style="display: block; min-height: 0px !important;">
<h1>Header</h1>
<a class="button" href="#">Button</a>
</div>
<div id="home" class="current">
<!--Content in here-->
Link to next page
</div>
<div id="next">
<!--Content in here-->
</div>
</body>

I am not entirely sure I got your question, but It sounds like you want to have an element with "fixed" position. If that's the case, you may want to try the solution I posted for this question.

CSS: How to place a <script> element on the page

I am developing a web application using AngularJS.
I have a problem: in an HTML page I needed to show a table that dynamically show the number of rows based on a user's choice. I achieved this effect using a script and bootstrap rules.
I won't go into details, but I just show you the high-level code and a screenshot of the result:
HTML code:
<script type="text/ng-template" id="custom/pager">
<ul class="pager ng-cloak">
<!-- Code of the element drop down menu.....-->
</ul>
</script>
<div>
<ng-form >
<div class="panel panel-default table-panel noborder">
<div class="table-responsive">
<table ng-table-dynamic="$ctrl.tableParams with $ctrl.cols" class="table" template-pagination="custom/pager">
<!-- Code of the table.......-->
</table>
</div>
</div>
</ng-form>
</div>
The result is something like that:
My problem is that no type of CSS code seems to work to move the dropdown menu position to this position:
I tried to use position (relative, absolute, fixed) and also to encapsulate the <script> element inside <div> or <span> and refer it with CSS rules. But nothing seems to work! The dropdown menu always remains at the bottom and center of the page. I guess it's bootstrap's fault. Can you tell me how I can resolve this issue?
The pagination buttons are working. If the css should also work. You can place the below code into the codepen to see the effect.
Codepen
.table{
position:relative;
}
.ng-table-counts{
position:absolute;
top:0;
right:0;
}

JQuery slidetoggle

I am currently building a website for an indie game development team I am working with.
Right now I am writing the alpha sign up page and I have created layout which needs to make use of the slideToggle() and fadeToggle() methods, however after a few hours of faffing around in my editor I cannot seem to fathom a solution for the behavior I want.
When the page loads I want the form container to be in its slid up position and when the user clicks on the div I want the form container to animate down.
I have tried to animate the display property from hidden to block and I have also tried to hide the element when the document loads and then re-show it on click, however when I did that I noticed a strange behavior as the div would slide down and then up, which would cause the user to have to press the button again to view the sign-up form.
The code below handles the click event,
<a href="#" >
<div onclick="$('#showForm .inner').fadeToggle({queue:false});$('#showForm').slideToggle();" id="alpha-container" class="alpha-off"></div>
</a>
And this is the div I want to be hidden and re-appear
<div id="formContainer" class="form container">
<div id="showForm" class="outer">
<div class="inner">
<form method="post" action="verify.php">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="intro">
<h1 class="header-orange">Liberico Alpha Application</h1>
<p class="body-text">So you think you have what it takes to brave the battlefield?
</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have created a jsfiddle demonstrating how my page currently renders - http://jsfiddle.net/alexmk92/54EUC/ - any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Firstly, i removed the javascript code from html and added a class "clickable" to the clickable element:
<a class="clickable" href="#" >
<div id="alpha-container" class="alpha-off">CLICK ME FOR ANIMATION</div>
</a>
And then, i've created a custom javascript toggle function with slideDown and up:
$('.clickable').click(function(){
var showFormObj = $('#showForm');
if(showFormObj.hasClass('active')){
showFormObj.removeClass('active');
showFormObj.slideUp();
}else{
showFormObj.addClass('active');
showFormObj.slideDown();
}
});
On the css part i hid the 'showForm' element:
#showForm {display:none;}
Here is the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Karzin/54EUC/2/
If you need to hide the form when page loads. For form container use
display : none

I want a thumbnail to expand in size as the div does

Hey I'm looking for some help - I'm more of a designer than a coder but I am trying to learn :)
I do have this kinda working but I can't figure out how to get the thumbnail image to resize to the height of the expanded div - as it expands.
I have a container div and inside that div I have multiple "expandable" divs which contain information about different products.
Each of these expandable divs has a title, a thumbnail image and a price of the product (as well as a plus sign image to expand the div itself).
When the div is expanded there is some more information about the product on show.
But when the div is expanded, I would also like the "price" to disappear (as it's now visible in the expanded information) and I would like the image to automatically scale to the height of the expanded div.
So the product information will be on the on the left hand side of the div and the image will be taking up the right half of the div (with the minus button on top of it.
This is my html
<div class="expandingContentContainer">
<div class="expandingContent">
<div id="expandingContentHeader" style="display:inline; float:left">
<h4>Portable navigation system</h4>
</div>
<div id="expandingContentThumb" style="display:inline;">
<img src="images/thumbnails/audio-portable-navigation-thumbs.jpg" />
</div>
<div id="expandingContentPrice" style="display:inline;">
<img src="images/assets/icon_pound.png" />Price: £200
</div>
<div id="expanderSign">
<img src="images/assets/icon_plus.png" />
</div>
<div id="expanderContent" style="display:none">
<p>Bluetooth voice dialling without the hassle of having to train the device. Reads text messages out loud and features a stylish 2,8" colour display. Play back music and phone calls via the OE-audio system.</p>
<p><img src="images/assets/icon_pound.png" />Price: £200</p>
<p><img src="images/assets/icon_tick.png" />Availability: Most models<img src="images/assets/icon_hash.png" />Part Number: 3600-78-474<img src="images/assets/icon_pencil.png" />Legal: N/A</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#expanderSign").click(function(){
$("#expanderContent").slideToggle();
if ($("#expanderSign").text() == "+"){
$("#expanderSign").name("−")
}
else {
$("#expanderSign").text("+")
}
});
});
</script>
Sounds like something you could solve entirely with CSS. As long as the container-div has a fixed height, you should be able to set the height of the img-element to height: 100%, causing the image to scale accordingly. However, this will not work while the display-mode of the container is set to display: inline. You will have to use display: inline-block to be able to set the height of the div.
In order to get a good help you should add a link to your website or the css files.
You will need some changes in the css and maybe (depending on the support you need) some javascript (jquery or zepto).
You could also use a pre build library but it's really not necessary.

jQuery - Coda-like content sliding

I need to achieve an effect where when a user triggers a hover on an a tag, current content on the screen slides out, and the new content slides in (depending on what was hovered on). Here is my HTML:
<div class="services-image" style="background:url('/sites/default/files/services-background.jpg') top left no-repeat">
<ul>
<li>Secure Mobile Computing</li>
<li>IT<br />Consulting</li>
<li>Software<br />Engineering</li>
<li>Microsoft<br />Services</li>
<li>Cyber<br />Security</li>
<li>Infrastructure & System<br />Adminstration</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
So, when a user triggers a#box-2 hover, the divs below ease in/out with new content. Example container markup:
<div class="content-slides">
<div class="slide-1">text</div>
<div class="slide-2">text</div>
<div class="slide-3">text</div>
<div class="slide-4">text</div>
<div class="slide-5">text</div>
<div class="slide-6">text</div>
</div>
I remember seeing this tutorial - it's aimed at designers, so you should fly through it :)

It should be easy enough to change the click events to mouseover.

How a Javascript Accordion Works?

I would like to create my own accordion component without using any AJAX toolkits, mostly for learning purposes. I am not sure quite where to start with this one. I'm assuming I would begin by creating div's for each section in the accordion. Perhaps each div would contain a header, which would be the actual button selected to move the accordion to that section. I am not sure the correct approach to take once an accordion's section button is selected though. Would I use the z-order, so that each section is of a higher z-order? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
I would highly recommend picking up a book such as John Resig's Pro JavaScript techniques that will give you some ideas and initial thoughts about how to approach bulding your own client-side solutions.
Essentially, you would have an element to act as a header, for example <h1> or <div> under which you would have a <div> with an initial style of display: none;. Set up an event handler on the click event of the header to change the style of the div below to display: block and ensuring that any other content <div>s are hidden (do this by using a CSS class on each content <div> for example).
I'll leave the smooth animation to you as an exercise for how it might be accomplished. As a hint, I would recommend looking at how a JavaScript library like jQuery handles animation, by checking out the source.
The best way to order it would be like this
<div id="accordion">
<h3 class="accordion title">Title</h3>
<div class="accordion section">
Section Content
</div>
<h3 class="accordion title">Title 2</h3>
<div class="accordion section">
Section Content
</div>
<h3 class="accordion title">Title 3</h3>
<div class="accordion section">
Section Content
</div>
<h3 class="accordion title">Title 4</h3>
<div class="accordion section">
Section Content
</div>
</div>
You would want to avoid z-order entirely because it is a compatibility mess. Instead you would have the accordion titles be what you would click to open the accordion. You would want to set all of the accordion section <div>'s to visibility:hidden; by default, and then, when one of them is clicked, change it's visibility, and hide all the others. If you want it to work with any amount of accordion sections, you would have it count each <h3 class="accordion title"> and each <div class="accordion section">, and pair those up into an array. When a title is clicked, show it's corresponding div. Alternatively you could give each one a separate ID, but the first way would be much more useful.
Actually, it might be display:none; instead of visibility:hidden;, I would try both.
In addition it's worth mentioning that the animation is usually handled by changing things like the size of the div, so if you were hiding a section, you would make the height smaller and smaller until it reaches 0 and is hidden.
See this question, you will notice my answer contains a demo with the basic workings that should get you started. It was only asked a few minutes ago!
It uses jQuery.
