How to disable all ng-click and ng-submit event

is there any way, how can I globally (in service) disable and enable all ng-click and ng-submit events?
For example when user is offline I want to disable all actions till he gets connection back..
I tried to bind all elements with an onClick event which will call stopImmediatePropagation but it didn't work..
$('*[ng-click]').click(function( event ) {
event.stopImmediatePropagation();
});
Also this question is a little bit different from this one:
Disable ng-click on certain conditions of application for all types of element
I'd like to disable/enable all events in APP globally from service, I'm not able to modify all ng-* calls on all elements in the APP..

Try including a return false too:
$('*[ng-click]').click(function( event ) {
event.stopImmediatePropagation();
return false;
});
Snippet
The below snippet demonstrates that multiple event handlers attached to a single <a> works too.
$(function () {
$("a").click(function () {
alert("Hello!");
return false;
});
$("a").click(function () {
alert("Bye!");
return false;
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Click Me

So finally I end up with temporarily disabling all events on the page using jquery..
I got inspired from this plugin http://ignitersworld.com/lab/eventPause.html which for some reason did not work (without any error)
So I took main parts and put it to this class which is working now using jquery v2.1.1:
var EventManager = function() {
var self = this;
var nullFun=function(){};
var getIndex = function(array,value){
for(var i=0; i< array.length; i++){
if(array[i]==value){
return i;
}
}
return -1;
};
this.pauseEvent = function(elm,eventAry){
var events = $._data(elm, "events");
if (events) {
$.each(events, function(type, definition) {
if((getIndex(eventAry,type)!=-1)||(eventAry=='')){
$.each(definition, function(index, event) {
if (event.handler.toString() != nullFun.toString()){
if(!$._iwEventPause) $._iwEventPause = {};
$._iwEventPause["iw-event" + event.guid] = event.handler;
event.handler = nullFun;
}
})
}
})
}
};
this.activeEvent = function(elm,eventAry){
var events = $._data(elm, "events");
if (events) {
$.each(events, function(type, definition) {
if((getIndex(eventAry,type)!=-1)||(eventAry=='')){
$.each(definition, function(index, event) {
if (event.handler.toString() == nullFun.toString()){
event.handler = $._iwEventPause["iw-event" + event.guid];
}
})
}
})
}
};
this.disableAll = function(el) {
el = el || $('*');
el.each(function() {
self.pauseEvent($(this)[0], '');
});
self.pauseEvent($(window)[0], '');
};
this.enableAll = function(el) {
el = el || $('*');
el.each(function() {
self.activeEvent($(this)[0], '');
});
self.activeEvent($(window)[0], '');
};
return this;
};
var eManager = new EventManager();
eManager.disableAll();
eManager.enableAll();
This will go through window object and all elements on the page, move their event handlers away to _iwEventPause object and replace handlers with dummy function.. When enabling, it will move handlers back so they get normally called..
This solution does not handle event handlers added after disabling..

Making bootstrap-tags responsive, jquery events lost

I am trying to change this demo:
http://maxwells.github.io/bootstrap-tags.html
into a responsive version in which I can set it to readOnly and remove it from readOnly as I like. This code:
var alltags = ["new tag", "testtag", "tets", "wawa", "wtf", "wtf2"];
$(document).ready(function() {
var tagbox = $('#my-tag-list').tags({
suggestions: alltags
});
var tagenable = true;
$('#my-tag-list').focusout(function() {
if (tagenable) {
tagbox.readOnly = true;
$('#my-tag-list').empty();
tagbox.init();
tagenable = false;
}
});
$('#my-tag-list').click(function() {
if(!tagenable) {
tagbox.readOnly = false;
$('#my-tag-list').empty();
tagbox.init();
tagenable = true;
}
});
});
seems to work fairly well, it makes everything readonly after focusout and editable when I click it. However, the editing does not work since I cannot insert new tags nor delete them (seems to be like event handling was lost or something like that).
I am guessing that emptying the #my-tag-list div is causing this, but I cannot yet find a way to use for instance "detach" instead that removes everything inside (not the element itself) and putting it back in again.
I tried to make a JS Fiddle, but it isn't really working so well yet:
http://jsfiddle.net/tomzooi/cLxz0L06/
The thing that does work is a save of the entire website, which is here:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ldbfqjol3pppu2k/AABhuJA4A6j9XTxUKBEzoH6za?dl=0
this link has the unminimized JS of the bootstrap-tags stuff I am using:
https://github.com/maxwells/bootstrap-tags/blob/master/dist/js/bootstrap-tags.js

So far I managed to do this with some modifications of the bootstrap javascript code. I use two different tagbox which I hide and unhide with some click events.
var tagbox = $('#my-tag-list').tags({
suggestions: alltags,
tagData: tmp_tags,
afterAddingTag: function(tag) { tagboxro.addTag(tag); },
afterDeletingTag: function(tag) {tagboxro.removeTag(tag); }
});
var tagboxro = $('#my-tag-listro').tags({
suggestions: alltags,
tagData: tmp_tags,
readOnly: 'true',
tagSize: 'sm',
tagClass: 'btn-info pull-right'
});
$(document).mouseup(function (e) {
var container = $("#my-tag-list");
if (!container.is(e.target) // if the target of the click isn't the container...
&& container.has(e.target).length === 0) { // ... nor a descendant of the container
if (tagsave) {
$("#my-tag-listro").show();
$("#my-tag-list").hide();
var tags = tagbox.getTags();
$.post("%basedir%/save.php", {
editorID:"new_tags",
tags:tags
}, function(data,status){
//alert("Data: " + data + "\nStatus: " + status);
});
tagsave = false;
}
}
});
$('#my-tag-listro').click(function() {
tagsave = true;
//$(".tag-list").toggle();
$("#my-tag-list").show();
$("#my-tag-listro").hide();
});
I had to modify the code of bootstrap-tags.js to allow for this since it normally deletes all of the usefull functions when it is considered readonly in the init function:
if (this.readOnly) {
this.renderReadOnly();
this.removeTag = function(tag) {
if (_this.tagsArray.indexOf(tag) > -1) {
_this.tagsArray.splice(_this.tagsArray.indexOf(tag), 1);
_this.renderReadOnly();
}
return _this;
};
this.removeTagClicked = function() {};
this.removeLastTag = function() {};
this.addTag = function(tag) {
_this.tagsArray.push(tag);
_this.renderReadOnly();
return _this;
};
this.addTagWithContent = function() {};
this.renameTag = function() {};
return this.setPopover = function() {};
}
would be awesome if this feature was incorporated in a somewhat less hacky way though :)

Page loading is gradually getting slower using jQuery script

I'm using this jQuery script to show search results. Everything works fine, but when search results have more than one page and I'm browsing pages via paging then every page loading is gradually getting slower. Usually first cca 10 pages loads I get quickly, but next are getting avoiding loading delay. Whole website get frozen for a little while (also loader image), but browser is not yet. What should be the problem?
function editResults(def) {
$('.searchResults').html('<p class=\'loader\'><img src=\'images/loader.gif\' /></p>');
var url = def;
var url = url + "&categories=";
// Parse Categories
$('input[name=chCat[]]').each(function() {
if (this.checked == true) {
url = url + this.value + ",";
}
});
url = url + "&sizes=";
// Parse Sizes
$('input[name=chSize[]]').each(function() {
if (this.checked == true) {
url = url + this.value + ",";
}
});
url = url + "&prices=";
// Parse Prices
$('input[name=chPrice[]]').each(function() {
if (this.checked == true) {
url = url + this.value + ",";
}
});
$('.searchResults').load('results.php'+url);
$('.pageLinks').live("click", function() {
var page = this.title;
editResults("?page="+page);
});
}
$(document).ready(function(){
editResults("?page=1");
// Check All Categories
$('input[name=chCat[0]]').click(function() {
check_status = $('input[name=chCat[0]]').attr("checked");
$('input[name=chCat[]]').each(function() {
this.checked = check_status;
});
});
// Check All Sizes
$('input[name=chSize[0]]').click(function() {
check_status = $('input[name=chSize[0]]').attr("checked");
$('input[name=chSize[]]').each(function() {
this.checked = check_status;
});
});
// Edit Results
$('.checkbox').change(function() {
editResults("?page=1");
});
// Change Type
$(".sort").change(function() {
editResults("?page=1&sort="+$(this).val());
});
});

$('.pageLinks').live("click", function() {
var page = this.title;
editResults("?page="+page);
});
just a wild guess but... wouldn't this piece of code add a new event handler to the click event instead reaplacing the old one with a new one? causing the click to call all the once registered handlers.
you should make the event binding just once
var global_var = '1';
function editResults(def) {
// all your code
global_var = 2; // what ever page goes next
};
$(document).ready(function() {
// all your code ...
$('.pageLinks').live("click", function() {
var page = global_var;
editResults("?page="+page);
});
});

pjax/ajax and browser back button issues

I use pjax to ajaxify my menu links. This works fine until I use the browser back button. In my javascript file I use Common Script files (to load all the necessary js files when the user hits the url) and Script files with respect to each menu links (when navigated through pjax)
function myFunction(){
/*All the script files */
}
$(document).ready(function(){
myFunction();
/*pjax menu loading block*/
$(document).on('click', 'a[data-pjax]', function(event) {
$.pjax.click(event, '#pjax-container');
$(document).on('pjax:end', function() {
myFunction();
});
});
});
Now when I navigate to a menu item and try to come back by clicking the browser back button, the script files are getting duplicated (eg: slider images getting duplicated and table sorting not working).How to overcome this issue?

You can implement the url specific loading this way, create a queue of functions which you want to load and unload on pjax complete
The solution is based on js prototyping
// create queue for load and unload
var onLoad = new PjaxExecQueue();
var onUnload = new PjaxExecQueue();
// way to add functions to queue to run on pjax load
onLoad.queue(function() {
someFunction();
});
// way to add functions to queue to unload on pjax load
onUnload.queue(function() {
someOtherFunction();
});
// load function if url contain particular path name
onLoad.queue_for_url(function_name, 'url_section');
// check for url specific function
var URLPjaxQueueElement = function(exec_function, url) {
this.method = exec_function;
if(url) {
this.url = new RegExp(url);
} else {
this.url = /.*/;
}
};
// create a queue object
var PjaxExecQueue = function () {
this.url_exec_queue = [];
this.id_exec_queue = [];
this.fired = false;
this.indicating_loading = false;
this.content = $('#content');
};
PjaxExecQueue.prototype = {
queue: function (exec_function) {
this.url_exec_queue.unshift(new URLPjaxQueueElement(exec_function));
},
queue_for_url: function (exec_function, url_pattern) {
this.url_exec_queue.unshift(new URLPjaxQueueElement(exec_function, url_pattern));
},
queue_if_id_present: function(exec_function, id) {
this.id_exec_queue.unshift(new IDPjaxQueueElement(exec_function, id));
},
fire: function () {
if(this.indicating_loading) {
this.content.removeClass("indicate-loading");
this.indicating_loading = false;
}
if(!this.fired) {
var match_loc = window.location.pathname;
var i = this.url_exec_queue.length;
while(i--) {
this.url_exec_queue[i].fire(match_loc);
}
i = this.id_exec_queue.length;
while(i--) {
this.id_exec_queue[i].fire(match_loc);
}
}
this.fired = true;
},
reset: function() {
this.fired = false;
},
loading: function () {
this.content.addClass("indicate-loading");
this.indicating_loading = true;
this.reset();
},
count: function () {
return exec_queue.length;
},
show: function (for_url) {
for (var i=0; i < exec_queue.length; i++) {
if(for_url) {
if(exec_queue[i].url.test(for_url)) {
console.log("" + exec_queue[i].method);
}
} else{
console.log(exec_queue[i].url + " : " + exec_queue[i].method);
}
}
}
};
// before send
$(document).on('pjax:beforeSend', function() {
onLoad.loading();
onUnload.fire();
});
// after pjax complete
$(document).on('pjax:complete', function() {
onLoad.fire();
onUnload.reset();
});

How to detect if some text box is changed via external script?

I have some jQuery plugin that changes some elements, i need some event or jQuery plugin that trigger an event when some text input value changed.
I've downloaded jquery.textchange plugin, it is a good plugin but doesn't detect changes via external source.

#MSS -- Alright, this is a kludge but it works:
When I call boxWatcher() I set the value to 3,000 but you'd need to do it much more often, like maybe 100 or 300.
http://jsfiddle.net/N9zBA/8/
var theOldContent = $('#theID').val().trim();
var theNewContent = "";
function boxWatcher(milSecondsBetweenChecks) {
var theLoop = setInterval(function() {
theNewContent = $('#theID').val().trim();
if (theOldContent == theNewContent) {
return; //no change
}
clearInterval(theLoop);//stop looping
handleContentChange();
}, milSecondsBetweenChecks);
};
function handleContentChange() {
alert('content has changed');
//restart boxWatcher
theOldContent = theNewContent;//reset theOldContent
boxWatcher(3000);//3000 is about 3 seconds
}
function buttonClick() {
$('#theID').value = 'asd;lfikjasd;fkj';
}
$(document).ready(function() {
boxWatcher(3000);
})

try to set the old value into a global variable then fire onkeypress event on your text input and compare between old and new values of it. some thing like that
var oldvlaue = $('#myInput').val();
$('#myInput').keyup(function(){
if(oldvlaue!=$('#myInput').val().trim())
{
alert('text has been changed');
}
});
you test this example here
Edit
try to add an EventListner to your text input, I don't know more about it but you can check this Post it may help

Thanks to #Darin because of his/her solution I've marked as the answer, but i have made some small jQuery plugin to achieve the same work named 'txtChgMon'.
(function ($) {
$.fn.txtChgMon = function (func) {
var res = this.each(function () {
txts[0] = { t: this, f: func, oldT: $(this).val(), newT: '' };
});
if (!watchStarted) {
boxWatcher(200);
}
return res;
};
})(jQuery);
var txts = [];
var watchStarted = false;
function boxWatcher(milSecondsBetweenChecks) {
watchStarted = true;
var theLoop = setInterval(function () {
for (var i = 0; i < txts.length; i++) {
txts[i].newT = $(txts[i].t).val();
if (txts[i].newT == txts[i].oldT) {
return; //no change
}
clearInterval(theLoop); //stop looping
txts[i].f(txts[i], txts[i].oldT, txts[i].newT);
txts[i].oldT = $(txts[i].t).val();
boxWatcher(milSecondsBetweenChecks);
return;
}
}, milSecondsBetweenChecks);
}
