JavaScript - Stay On Page Until Other Is Loades

how do i make a html button stay down when pressed, until another button within a specified group of buttons is pressed, at which point it is released and the other button stays pressed?

Ok, first let me explain what I try to do.

I have a menu with some items containing a submenu. The submenu's should open when a parent is clicked and contains submenu's, and when traveling to another page (from the item clicked, for example a parent of submenu item), the submenu should remain active and visible.

When I click on a parent (at the moment the hrefs contain no links just #), the submenu opens. But when I click another main item, the submenu of the previous parent remain visible, and the submenu of the parent just clicked is also visible, while I only want the submenu of the parent clicked to be visible or when parent with no submenu the submenu should be invisible.

So, here is the code I have so far:
Code:

<div id="topnav">
        <ul>
            <li>
                <a href="index.html">Home</a>
            </li>
            <li>
                <a href="#">Over Meves</a>
                <ul class="submenu">
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Historie</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Onze mensen</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Werkzijze</a></li>
                </ul>
            </li>
            <li>
                <a href="vervolg3.html">Disciplines</a>
                <ul class="submenu">
                    <li><a href="vervolg.html" class="suba">Klimaatbeheersing</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Elektrotechniek</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Sanitaire techniek</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Energiebesparingstechniek</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Bouwfysica en geluid</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Diensten energiebesparing</a></li>
                </ul>
            </li>
            <li>
                <a href="#">Expertise</a>
                <ul class="submenu">
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Woningbouw & Utiliteit</a></li> 
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Zorg & Welzijn</a></li> 
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Milieu & Energie</a></li> 
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Beheer & Onderhoud</a></li> 
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">EPA & EPC</a></li> 
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Legionella beheersing</a></li>
                </ul>          	
            </li>
            <li>
                <a href="#">Contact</a>
                <ul class="submenu">
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Adres & route</a></li> 
                    <li><a href="#" class="suba">Werken bij</a></li>
                </ul>
            </li>
        </ul>
    </div>

The javascript:
Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
var ddmenuitem = 0;
function jsddm_open()
{  jsddm_close();
   ddmenuitem = $(this).find('ul.submenu').css('display', 'block');
}
function jsddm_close()
{  
	if(ddmenuitem) ddmenuitem.css('display', 'none');
}
$(document).ready(function()
{  
   $('#topnav > ul > li').bind('click', jsddm_open)
   $('#topnav ul li a.suba').click(function(e){
     if ($(this).attr('class') != 'active'){
       $('#topnav ul li a.suba').removeClass('active');
       $(this).addClass('active');
     }
   });
	   $("ul.submenu > li > a").each(function () {
         var currentURL = document.location.href;
         var thisURL = $(this).attr("href");
         if (currentURL.indexOf(thisURL) != -1) {
	         $(this).parents("ul.submenu").css('display', 'block');
         }
       });
	   $('a').each(function () {
		var currentURL = document.location.href;
		var thisURL = $(this).attr('href');
		if (currentURL = thisURL) {
			$(this).parents('ul.submenu').css('display', 'block');	
		}
	//	else {
		//	$(this).parents('ul.submenu').css('display', 'none');	
	//	}
	   }); 
});
</script>

And the css:
Code:

#topnav ul
{
	list-style: none;
	padding: 0;
	margin: 0;
}
#topnav ul li 
{
	float: left;
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}
#topnav ul li a
{
	padding: 5px 15px;
	color: #00537F;
	text-decoration: none;
	display: block;
	font-weight: bold;
}
#topnav ul li a:link
{
	color: #FFF;
	text-decoration: none;
}
#topnav ul li a:visited
{
	color: #FFF;
	text-decoration: none;
}
#topnav ul li a:hover
{
	color: #FFF;
	text-decoration: underline;
}
#topnav ul li a.active
{
	text-decoration: underline;
	color: #FFF;
}
/*#topnav ul li:hover .submenu
{
	display:block;
}*/
#topnav ul li ul.submenu
{
	float: left;
	padding: 4px 0;
	position: absolute;
	left: 0;
	top: 24px;
	display: none;
	background: #e0e0e0;
	color: #00537F;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu a
{
	display: inline;
	color: #00537F;
	padding: 4px 8px;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu li
{
	border-right-width: 1px; 
	border-right-style: solid;
	border-right-color: #00537F;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu li:last-child
{
	border-right-style: none;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu a:link
{
	color: #00537F;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu a:visited
{
	color: #00537F;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu a:hover
{
	text-decoration: underline;
	color: #00537F;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu li.active
{
	text-decoration: underline;
	color: #00537F;
}
#topnav ul li ul.submenu a.active
{
	text-decoration: underline;
	color: #00537F;
}

Hope I explained it clear.

Thanks for any help.

I have a map with hotspots, and when you hover over a hot spot, a hidden DIV appears. Thanks to my favorite coding forum, this one, I was able to successfully accomplish this first bit of code. The only problem I'm having now is getting the DIV to remain open while I move my mouse from the hotspot to the DIV. As soon as I move my mouse away from the hotspot, the DIV disappears. I need to put links in the DIVs, and users will need to be able to move their mouse away from the hotspot to click on the link, but currently can't.

I experimented with setTimeout, but didn't get too far. If anyone could help me, I'd appreciate it. I really need to get this working.

Code:

<img src="images/map.png" alt="" usemap="#map"/>
			
<map id="map" name="map">
<area shape="rect" coords="211,84,225,97" href="#" alt=""/>
<area shape="rect" coords="226,78,240,92" href="#" alt=""/>
<area shape="rect" coords="353,66,376,89" href="#" alt=""/>
</map>

<div id="hidden">
	<div class="location" style="left:25px; top:-290px;">
		<img src="images/location01.jpg" alt=""/>
	</div>
				
	<div class="location" style="left:25px; top:-275px;">				
		<img src="images/location02.jpg" alt=""/>
	</div>

	<div class="location" style="left:275px; top:-285px;">
		<img src="images/location03.jpg" alt=""/>
	</div>
</div> <!-- #hidden -->

Code:

function show(which) {
	var area = document.getElementById("map").getElementsByTagName("area");
	var locations = document.getElementById("hidden").getElementsByTagName("div");

	for (var a=0; a < area.length; ++a) {
		if(area[a] == which) locations[a].style.display="block";
		}
	}
					
function hide() {
	var locations = document.getElementById("hidden").getElementsByTagName("div");

	for (var d=0; d < locations.length; ++d) {
		locations[d].style.display="none";
		}
	}
					
function init() {
	var area = document.getElementById("map").getElementsByTagName("area");

	for (var a=0; a < area.length; ++a) {
		area[a].onmouseover = function() { show(this); }
		area[a].onmouseout = hide;
		}
	}

window.onload = init;

I just wrote an essay to discover it had logged me out and I lost everything.

Grrrrrrr.

Here goes again, simplified this time.

I've got a sticky footer at the bottom of the page and a spry collapsible panel which expands to reveal content on mouse over.

The problem I'm facing is that the page doesn't scroll down with it, only the scroll bar gets larger to accommodate for a manual scroll down. This is kind of useless because the user might not even realise that there's extra content there in the first place if it's not automatic.

My question is, what's the best javascript code to use to automatically scroll the page down when the spry tab is opened and where would I insert it?

I've tried all morning with no success so far!

Thanks,

Nick,

I'm copy pasting this post this time round, I don't trust this website now

Hello. My goal is to load the JS for a specific element before displaying that element. I integrated a third part script, and it works well. I set the timer he

The JS is in my heading as <script type="text/javascript" src="countdownpro.js"></script>

About mid-body I have: <span id="countdown1">2010-07-20 00:00:00 GMT+00:00</span> which allows for the setting of a target date to countdown to.

When the page first loads it shows the above long format target time, until the js/meta tags kick in to modify it to just show the actual countdown as 00:00:00.

I have attached countdownpro.js to this post. I tried shifting the function CD_Init() to the top of the script, and also appended it inline with the .html. I tried setting the big external script to "defer", but neither arrangement worked. I also tried placing the src file right at the top.

I appreciate your help.

I want to implement a javascript function where a submit button will be submitted from the parent page each time I close a child page. Please let me know what I did wrong in my code and please elaborate your answer so that I could understand it better. Thank you so much for your help.

I have the following jscript code but it is now working.

Code:

window.onunload = submitParent;
function submitParent() 
{
  var doc = window.opener.document,
      theForm = doc.getElementById("finalForm");
      theField = doc.getElementById("finalSelected");
  theForm.submit();
  theField.trigger('click');
}

My form from the parent page is as follow. I want my jscript to just click on the submit button once.
Code:

<form id = "finalForm "name= "finalForm" method="POST" action="">
<input type="Submit" id = "finalSelected" name="finalSelected"/>

Hi,

I am Aditya. I am explaining below the exact scenario where I need the help:

I am developing a web application in which I need to integrate a javascript/html editor on some of the web pages and then provide 'Edit' buttons on those web pages so that users can edit the content on that partciular html/jsp page (like editing in wiki pages) and then, when they add some content and click on submit button, the new content should appear on the web page with all the formatting (i.e. bold, italics, color and so on) which was applied by user when he was entering the text.
Now, I need help for the below issues:
1. Please suggest me a good javascript/html editor (freely downloadable) which I can use to integrate with my web pages.
2. Once the user has entered some content using the above javascript editor, how to make that content reach the server and update the corresponding web page.

I am new to web development, so may be that these questions are too simple.
But, I need some help from you.

Waiting for your reply,

Thanks,
Aditya

Hi All,
Im new to this forum...need some of your help and advice.

I have a js code like this :

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var sipPos = 0;
$(document).ready(function() {

$("#panel-tab").click(function(e) {
//if(autoTimer) clearTimeout(autoTimer);
//autoTimer = null;
e.preventDefault();
$("#panel").animate({ left: sipPos }, 1764, 'linear', function() {
if(sipPos == 0) { sipPos = -856; }
else { sipPos = 0; }

});
});
});
-->
</script>

what it does is that it hide and show a panel by slidint it to the left.

But my client want that on page load the panel opens automatically for about 2-3 seconds just to let users know that its here. So ive written this :

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var sipPos = 0;
$(document).ready(function() {
var autoTimer = null;
autoTimer = setTimeout(function(){
$("#panel").animate({ left: sipPos });
autoTimer = setTimeout(function(){
$("#panel").animate({ left: sipPos = -856 });
}, 2000);
},1000);

$("#panel-tab").click(function(e) {
//if(autoTimer) clearTimeout(autoTimer);
//autoTimer = null;
e.preventDefault();
$("#panel").animate({ left: sipPos }, 1764, 'linear', function() {
if(sipPos == 0) { sipPos = -856; }
else { sipPos = 0; }

});
});
});
-->
</script>

But when the panel finished showing the button to open it again doesn't work...any help please..really urgent.

Hi there!
I am using GlassBox "http://www.glassbox-js.com/" As a light box on a website. Basically, You click an thumbnail image, and a window pops up with a larger version of that image.

Now originally, the window opened X number of pixels from the top of the page. However, My thumbnail images were located mid page, so when you clicked on one, the window would open at the top of the page and the user would not see it unless they scrolled up.

So I attempted to modify the script so that it would get the users page width/height and display it directly in the center no matter the position.

Now my problem is that the script only works when the user has already scrolled down. So if the page is scrolled all the way to the top, and you click on a thumbnail, the window will not open center screen.

Here is an example: http://synaxis.pcriot.com/

When the page loads, DO NOT scroll it, and click on the image. You will see the window pop up, and not centered, like it should be. However, now if you scroll down, and click the image again, you see that it is now centered. I also noticed that when the page is scrolled up, and the image does not center, it always is placed below the thumbnail image, or otherwise where ever the DIV is located. It normally located under the image, but if i place the DIV at the top of the page then the window will pop up there.
And this does happen on every browser that I have tested, Firefox, IE, and Chrome.

So, I am pretty much stumped as to why this is happening. If anyone can shed some light I would be very grateful.

Thank You



Here is a link to the original code:
http://synaxis.pcriot.com/javascript...ox/glassbox.js

And modified code:
http://synaxis.pcriot.com/javascript...ox/glassbox.js

The modified code is at the very bottom of the script.

Original Code:
Code:

/** 
* @public 
*/
if ( typeof($) == 'undefined' ) {
  $ = function (id) {
    return document.getElementById(id);
  }
}

Modified Code

Code:

/** 
* @private 
*/
var removeElement = function(id) {
	var Node = document.getElementById(id);
	Node.parentNode.removeChild(Node);
}

/** 
* @private 
*/
var getDocHeight = function() {
	var db = document.body;
	var ddE = document.documentElement;
    return Math.max(
        db.scrollHeight, db.offsetHeight, db.clientHeight, 
        ddE.scrollHeight, ddE.offsetHeight, ddE.clientHeight
    );
}
/** 
* @public 
*/
if ( typeof($) == 'undefined' ) {
  $ = function (id) {
    return document.getElementById(id);
  }
}

Hello

Basically I have found and adapted the code:

Code:

alreadyloading = false;
nextpage = 2;
 
$(window).scroll(function() {
    if ($('body').height() <= ($(window).height() + $(window).scrollTop())) {
        if (alreadyloading == false) {
            var url = "page"+nextpage+".html";
            alreadyloading = true;
            $.post(url, function(data) {
                $('#projectscontainer').children().last().after(data);
                alreadyloading = false;
                nextpage++;
            });
        }
    }
});

I want when the user scrolls to the bottom of the page for content in a new page to load under the div "#projectscontainer". So in the new page 'Page2.html" I have put 5 divs going down with content in...

I want the new content to appear below "#projectscontainer'"

Why won't this work? Anyone know?

Thanks

I have a slideshow on the "Projects" page. The javascript is external.
There's a link on the homepage that when clicked needs to open the Projects page with the appropriate slide loaded. How do I do that?

Here's the code I have for the slideshow:

Code:

var prev = document.getElementById('prev');
var next = document.getElementById('next');
var current = 0;

function prevPic() {
	clearInterval(interval);

	if(current > 0) {
		current--;
		
		if(current == 0) {
			document.getElementById('next').src = "images/right_arrow.jpg";
			document.getElementById('prev').src = "images/left_arrow_off.jpg";
		} else {
			document.getElementById('next').src = "images/right_arrow.jpg";
			document.getElementById('prev').src = "images/left_arrow.jpg";			
		}
		update();
	}		
}

function nextPic() {
	clearInterval(interval);

	if(current <  slides.length - 1) {
		current++;
		
		if(current == slides.length - 1) {
			document.getElementById('next').src = "images/right_arrow_off.jpg";
			document.getElementById('prev').src = "images/left_arrow.jpg";
		} else {
			document.getElementById('next').src = "images/right_arrow.jpg";
			document.getElementById('prev').src = "images/left_arrow.jpg";			
		}
		update();
	}
}

function update() {
	var pic = slides[current];
	document.getElementById('project_title').innerHTML = pic.title;
	document.getElementById('project_image').src = "images/slides/" + pic.image;
	document.getElementById('project_location').innerHTML = "<span>Location:</span> " + pic.location;
	document.getElementById('project_operation').innerHTML = "<span>Commercial Operation:</span> " + pic.commercial_operation;
	document.getElementById('counter').innerHTML = (current + 1) + " of " + slides.length;
	
	if(pic.link) {
		document.getElementById('project_link').style.display = "block";
		document.getElementById('project_href').href = pic.link;
	} else {
		document.getElementById('project_link').style.display = "none";		
	}
}

//preload slides
var images = [];

for(i in slides) {
	var img = new Image();
	img.src = "images/slides/" + slides[i].image;
	images.push(img);
}

On this website... http://livedemo00.template-help.com/...21/index.html# When you click on the Navigation Bar the website pages load inside that page?

How exactly would i go around doing this?

Thankyou

Hi there,

Im a total newbie and learning html and javascript as I go along, so any help you can give is greatly appreciated!

It is possible to perform a find in page search that looks at a specific link, opens the page in a new window and finds the text within that document??

Basically I regularly use an html page in work that has a list of people and their telephone numbers.

I want to be able to type in a searchbox on my main page and it open the target page and find the name I am looking for?

Is this possible or can you only Find In Page on the same page or another frame?

Tearing my hair out........

Thanks
Glen
