I am using Jquery plugin http://timeago.yarp.com/ for showing time.
Issue is timeago will not take effect for dynamically generated items.
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".timeago").timeago(); // works perfectly fine for the items which are loaded on page load
//$(".timeago").live(timeago()); // gives me an error ie timeago is not defined
//$(".timeago").live($(".timeago").timeago()); // gives me an error too much recursion.
jQuery.timeago.settings.allowFuture = true;
});
From some google search I got to know something ie:
Using live is the same as using bind, except that it is limited only to the events click, dblclick, keydown, keypress, keyup, mousedown, mousemove, mouseout, mouseover, and mouseup.
Now how can do it cause I dont have any click event? How can I bind this?
.live() and .bind() assign callbacks to event. In your case, you don't have an event to assign the function to and so it fails.
You can, in theory, assign your callback to a custom event. You will however have to manually trigger the event (using .trigger()) whenever your item is generated. For example:
$("abbr.timeago").live("timeago", function() {
$(this).timeago();
});
// ... and in the bit that generates your item
$new_item.trigger("timeago")

Of course, using .live() in this situation is purely academic and does not really serve a good purpose.
If you do have access to the code that's generating the items, you can simply chain in the call to .timeago() as the items are generated, i.e. http://jsfiddle.net/ZjuW4/3/
take a look in this topic
here was discussed how to put timeago on dynamically loaded items
for example the results of an ajax request.
Activate timeago on newly added elements only
PS: allowFuture does not have anything to do with putting timeago on newly created items on your page. it just allows dates in the future (f.e. "in 3 days", "next week")

I have a complicated setup. My application is driven by a set of "rules" which dictate what the user interface is. The UI is rendered by looping through the rules and creating the individual dropdowns. Initially, everything renders properly. However, once a user makes a change to the UI, other rules may be affected. In my application, an api call is made, which then returns a modified set of rules. In the attached plunker, I've simplified things such that only the new set of rules is applied, which causes the page to re-render. The problem is that my users would like to be able to tab between all of the entries on the page and make changes. However, once the page is re-rendered, the currently selected page element is now gone nothing has the focus. I've tried to put the focus back on the proper element by tracking a common Id, but to no avail.
Using either of these doesn't seem to work.
var el = document.getElementById(focusId);
el.focus();
angular.element(el).focus();
I've also tried using the autofocus attribute on the dropdown that I want to have focus, but that didn't work either. I'm using angularjs 1.2. Any ideas are appreciated.

If you want to assign auto focus dynamically to a element on the DOM from angular you can use this:
var myEl = angular.element(document.querySelector('select'));
myEl.attr('autofocus',"attr val");
You can also pass in an id like: angular.element(document.querySelector('#focusId'));
You can look here for a prior answer which may be of some more help!
-Cheers!
Problem here is, you are trying to focus the element before the blur event completes. So you need to execute the focus code after blur event. Async execution of your focus code would solve the problem. You can use either setTimeout or $timeout.
setTimeout(function(){
angular.element('#'+focusId).focus();
/* //or
var el = document.getElementById(focusId);
el.focus();
*/
});
or
$timeout(function(){
angular.element('#'+focusId).focus();
/* //or
var el = document.getElementById(focusId);
el.focus();
*/
});
dont forgot to inject $timeout to your controller if you are using second code. Hope this helps :)
I need to load a specific JavaScript function after one of the tabs in the tabbar finishes loading (after it is clicked for the first time). I don't really understand how to set up an event listener with the onsen-ui tabbar (ons-tabbar), and the docs were not very clear.
Basically, what I am trying to do, is create a few graphs on one of the pages. This page is loaded up when a ons-tab is selected and the partial loads. However, I need the JavaScript that creates the graphs to only load after the page is loaded (the JavaScript looks for the elements to position the graph in the partial, hence my problem right now is that the JS is loading first and not finding the html elements in the partial because they have't been loaded yet). How do I create an event listener to detect when one of the tabs are selected to run a specific code of JavaScript?
To be a little bit more clear, I am using the persistent attribute on this specific tab, so essentially I only need this event listener to run the JS code once, when the tab is first opened. However, I don't understand how to get the once event listener to work...
For the reference: http://onsen.io/reference/ons-tabbar.html#methods-summary
There are three tabbar methods related to events: on, once and off.
That means the way to use them is myTabbar.on(...), for example. You can see in that link their parameters as well. Also, right below there are the three tabbar events. In this case I think you want to use postchange, right?
In your HTML you create a tabbar and assign it to a variable with var attribute, as I am sure you already know:
<ons-tabbar var="myTabbar">
<ons-tab page="tab0.html" label="Tab0" active="true"></ons-tab>
<ons-tab page="tab1.html" label="Tab1"></ons-tab>
<ons-tab page="tab2.html" label="Tab2"></ons-tab>
</ons-tabbar>
Now, you have to wait until the app is initialised and Onsen UI is loaded in order to set the event listeners, and you can use ons.ready() for that.
Going back to the tabbar events method, since you only need to trigger the functionality with a specific tab you need to filter the tabs inside the listener. Therefore, if you use myTabbar.once('postchange', ...) the listener itself will be triggered only once regardless the filter you set inside, so perhaps it will be triggered with a different tab and then deleted for the tab you want. You cannot use it in this case.
Instead of that, you can set a listener with myTabbar.on('postchange', ...) that triggers always, then filter the tabs inside and remove the listener only when you want with myTabbar.off('postchange'). Something like this:
ons.ready(function() {
myTabbar.on('postchange', function(event) {
// Only with the tab we want, we can use the index or the name
if (event.index === 2) {
console.log('postchange and do stuff with the tab');
console.log(event.tabItem);
// Delete this listener so it's only triggered the first time
myTabbar.off('postchange');
}
});
Working here: http://codepen.io/frankdiox/pen/QbYEaq
In case you have other listener over postchange, you can use the second parameter of myTabbar.off(...) to remove the exact listener you want and not the others.
Hope it helps!
I have a table of rows where are dynamically added, but for some reason the on() event doesn't seem to fire when I change the value of a select.
For simplicity, I wrote the following jsFiddle. This is a VERY simplistic example of what I am doing. I do have to note that I was unable to verify if the jsFiddle failed the same way in IE7 because jsFiddle does not seem to work in IE7 at all.
The basics of my code are this...
First, the page loads with 1 or more of these rows, which represent a complex "subform" to be posted to Spring MVC. The subform has a group of 5 SELECT tags that have an event handler attached at the top TABLE as such:
$('#parentTable').on('change', 'div.additional div[class^="additional"] select', function() {
// ...enable/disable siblings according to value
}
At the bottom of the table is an Add button. When the user clicks it, I take the last visible row, clone it, use regex to fix the index on the name/id, and set all the fields blank and disables except one field, which is used to do a lookup. This all has the appearance of working.
The user enters a value in the lookup field, clicks Lookup, which performs an AJAX call, filling in the subform then calling the change on the selects to set their default state like so:
$subTable.find(':input:not(:button)').change();
This fires the above on() as expected. However, if I physically click on the resulting SELECTs and change their values the on() event handler is not called.
I have verified that the resulting cloned table row looks/smells/feels correct, at least from using IE8's Developer Tools (I have IE8 in IE7 compatibility mode for testing, because IE7 has VERY limited testing and the problem seems to be present there too). When I run this in Chrome it works perfectly fine, however I am aware the clone is technically working differently.
Any help would be appreciated.
Update
I tried swapping the selector to drop the class attr as suggested below:
$('#parentTable').on('change', 'div.additional div select', function() {
// ...enable/disable siblings according to value
}
And I tried all caps like the referenced post:
$('#parentTable').on('change', 'div.additional div[class^="ADDITIONAL"] select', function() {
// ...enable/disable siblings according to value
}
The first worked the same way, the second did nothing at all (disabled all on() change handling).
Will continue to play with this until I get it working. There has to be something simple going wrong here.
Update 2
I tried adding a class to all the `SELECT`s, and added the following two:
$('select.addedClass').on('change', function() {
alert("Select change:" + $(this).val());
});
$('#parentTable').on('change', 'select.addedClass', function() {
alert("Select change 2:" + $(this).val());
});
Here is the process I performed:
Reloaded page, both alerts fire for the single row there
Added a row
Performed AJAX lookup, which calls $addedTable.find(':input:not(:button)').change(); as described above, both events fire
Change the value of one of the selects, neither alert fires.
I would expect the first to fail, since the event listener is connected directly to the SELECT and not a higher level parent, but the second one fails the same way. So, in the Developer Tools, I tried to run the following:
$('#order.itemList1.additionalLine1').change()
Which is the ID of one of the selects I added, and still nothing fired. It's as if the event handler is ignoring all added SELECTs.
To make sure the select was working on the on(), I did this in the console after I added the new row:
$('#parentTable').find('div.additional div[class^="additional"] select').each(function() {
alert($(this).attr('name') + '(' + $(this).prop('id') + ')' + ' : ' + $(this).val());
});
Update 3
I ended up putting in a horrible hack that, for IE7 only, drops and re-adds the change handler directly on the SELECTs. It's ugly, but I have to support IE7, so...
I am leaving this open to see if anyone has a better solution, or might know why it's not working.
The problem isn't the change event, or the delegation on select elements.
It's the attribute selector:
div[class^="additional"]
IE7 and below don't do attribute selectors.
I've done a bit of searching and a few people seem to think this can be solved using case-specific syntax.

I'd like my form to validate existing data when it is loaded. I can't seem to get that to happen
I jQuery.each of my controls and call focus() and blur(), is there a better way than this? I tried to call ctrl.checkValidity(), but it wasn't always defined yet. When it was, it still didn't mark the controls.
I seem to have a timing issue too, while the focus and blur() fire, the UI does not update. It's as if the Webshims are not fully loaded yet, even though this fires in the $.webshims.ready event.
I also tried to call $('#form').submit(), but this doesn't fire the events as I expected. The only way I could make that happen was to include an input type='submit'. How can I pragmatically case a form validation like clicking a submit button would?
Here's a jsFiddle that demonstrates the problem. When the form loads, I want the invalid email to be marked as such. If you click the add button it will be marked then, but not when initially loaded. Why?
Focus and blur in the control will cause it to be marked.
BUT, clicking ADD will too (which runs the same method that ran when it was loaded). Why does it work the 2nd time, but not when initially loaded?
updateValidation : function () {
this.$el.find('[placeholder]').each(function (index, ctrl) {
var $ctrl = $(ctrl);
if( $ctrl.val() !== "" && (ctrl.checkValidity && !ctrl.checkValidity()) ) {
// alert('Do validity check!');
$ctrl.focus();
$ctrl.blur();
}
});
}
I see this in FF 17.0.5. The problem is worse in IE9, sometimes taking 2 or 3 clicks of ADD before the fields show in error. However, I get errors on some of the js files I've liked 'due to mime type mismatch'.
This has to do with the fact, that you are trying to reuse the .user-error class, which is a "shim" for the CSS4 :user-error and shouldn't be triggered from script. The user-error scripts are loaded after onload or as soon as a user seems to interact with an invalid from.
From my point of view, you shouldn't use user-error and instead create your own class. You can simply check for validity using the ':invalid' selector:
$(this)[ $(this).is(':invalid') ? 'addClass' : 'removeClass']('invalid-value');
Simply write a function with similar code and bind them to events like change, input and so on and call it on start.
In case you still want to use user-error, you could do the following, but I would not recommend:
$.webshims.polyfill('forms');
//force webshims to load form-validation module as soon as possible
$.webshims.loader.loadList(['form-validation']);
//wait until form-validation is loaded
$.webshims.ready('DOM form-validation', function(){
$('input:invalid')
.filter(function(){
return !!$(this).val();
})
.trigger('refreshvalidityui')
;
});
In the following Layout, I am adding a CollectionView to display a SELECT list within onRender. Immediately after that, I am using the ui hash to enable or disable all controls within the view. This does not work for the SELECT generated by new App.View.Categories.
Should it? Or does the UI hash not work on Regions within a Layout?
App.View.UploadFile = Backbone.Marionette.Layout.extend({
template: '#upload-file-template',
regions:{
category: 'td:nth-child(4)'
},
ui:{
inputs: 'textarea, select, .save'
},
onRender: function(){
this.category.show(
new App.View.Categories({
collection: App.collection.categories
}) // generates the SELECT list
);
console.log(this.ui.inputs); // Length 2. Missing select.
console.log(this.$('textarea, select, .save')); // Length 3
this.ui.inputs.prop(
'disabled', (this.model.get('upload_status')!='staged')
);
}
});
This should be working the way you expect it to work. The code in question in the Marionette source is here: https://github.com/marionettejs/backbone.marionette/blob/master/src/marionette.itemview.js#L49-L51
The call to bindUIElements() is what converts the ui hash in to jQuery selector objects, and it is called right before the onRender method is called.
Are you seeing errors? Or is the selector simply returning nothing, and having no affect on the elements?
Update:
Ah! Of course... I wasn't paying attention to your code close enough. You're correct in that the UI element selectors happen before you're adding the the sub-view to the region. I've never run in to this situation before... but this seems like something we would want to fix / support.
For now, the best workaround I can suggest would be to call 'this.bindUIElements();' at the very end of your onRender method. This would force the ui elements to re-bind to the selectors.
I'll also add an issue to the github issues list, to look in to a better solution for this. i don't know when i'll be able to get to this, but this will at least get it on the list of things to fix.
