Lets say i have 10 Tabs. And one of these tabs will link to external URL. How to do it please?
I prefer to make it perform like a normal HREF action. Because when i use:
onclick="window.location='http://www.google.com';"
or
$("#tab-08").click(function(){ ........... });
.. there definitely is a DELAY about 1 or 2 seconds, upon the click of that particular Tab.
So how do i override a jQuery UI TAB back to normal link please?
Some more code would be useful but how about something like this?
Javascript:
$("#tabs").tabs({
active: false,
collapsible: true,
beforeActivate: function (event, ui) {
window.open($(ui.newTab).find('a').attr('href'), '_blank');
return false;
}
});
HTML:
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li>Page</li>
<li>Page</li>
</ul>
</div>
Your solution also works, but I think you are dealing with a browser related problem that is causing the delay.

I've a big problem with a jQuery Mobile Application:
I'm using custom functions (they are triggered by onClick) to switch the page with currentPage.
It only happens on Android-Devices on sites in which has changed (due to ajax requests) with the integrated browser. iOS and Chrome works nice.
After clicking on an element, the animation started but just before it ends, it switches back to the old page. After a half second, it switches back to the new.
I made a movie of the bug here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXxvVUxniNg
Thank you very much
Code (CoffeeScript):
class Guide
#categoriesLoaded = false
#loadSearch: ->
$.mobile.changePage $("#guide"),
transition: 'slide'
changeHash: false
if !#categoriesLoaded
#categoriesLoaded = true
GuideApi.getCategories (data) ->
output = Mustache.render $("#tmpl-guide-categories-select").html(),
categories: data
$("#guide-search-category").append output
$("#guide-search-category").val($("#guide-search-category option:first").val());
window.WgSwitchGuide = ->
Guide.loadSearch
I was having the same issue. And I tried everything, I finally end with the solution. What I found was the error was principally within the browser. So I set the configuration of the pushStateEnabled as false. I did it by doing the following, adding this script.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).bind("mobileinit", function(){
$.mobile.pushStateEnabled = false;
});
</script>
It should be add before the jquery-mobile script is call, for more information you could see it on JQuery description
And it solved the problem no more jumping back.
I was having the exact same issue on both android and ios. For me, it was happening for heavy pages, i.e., pages with complex elements etc. Looks like you are using "slide" transition, which was what I was using as well. Taking out the page transitions (i.e., $.mobile.changePage("page.html", { transition: "none" })) for those pages resolved this issue for me. Hope this helps.
If you want to retain the transition, you can try preloading the page first when the previous page is being shown, by using the $.mobile.loadPage, and then show the transition. I am myself exploring this route, but it is probably worth trying.
Edit: OK - I explored the last suggestion and this doesn't seem to be working. Will stick with the first option.
Would you try to add the event stopPropagation and preventDefault methods on the first page's click event? This way the default action of the click event will not be triggered. Moreover the stopPropagation prevents the event from bubbling up the DOM tree, preventing any parent handlers from being notified of the event.
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
Example:
$("p").click(function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
// change page
});
After trying for weeks to find a solution to this, I ended up doctoring the JQM library to disable page transitions one right after another. It's not a good solution, but it's the only thing I could get to work.
I was getting pages jumping back on both $.mobile.changePage and on anchor links. I used the slide transition, but removing it did not fix the problem. Setting pushStateEnabled to false did not work either. The jumps were happening on all devices and browsers (that I tested, anyway).
So here's what I did to the JQM library (v1.3.2).
Before the $.mobile.changePage function is defined, I added:
var justChangedPage = false;
Then within the function there's a line that goes:
if ( pbcEvent.isDefaultPrevented()) {
return;
}
which I changed to:
if ( pbcEvent.isDefaultPrevented() || justChangedPage) {
return;
}
Then right after this part of the $.mobile.changePage function:
if ( toPage[ 0 ] === $.mobile.firstPage[ 0 ] && !settings.dataUrl ) {
settings.dataUrl = documentUrl.hrefNoHash;
}
I added:
justChangedPage = true;
setTimeout(function() {
justChangedPage = false;
}, 500);
(Putting that earlier in the function didn't work -- all that stuff executes more than once within a single page transition. And half a second seemed to be the minimum timeout that prevented the page jumps.)
I hope this helps someone even if it is a hack...
What is your JQM and Android version?
I'm not sure If I understand correctly. I think transition flicker maybe come from the following assumption.
Heavy page DOM transition.
Using "translate3d" somewhere in css file.
Not using "H/W Acceleration" feature. Enable by add this line to your AndroidManifest.xml in <application>
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"
I encountered exactly the same behaviour and it seems that few people are having the same issue. At first I thought it is caused by jQuery mobile library. Later on, I manage to find where the problem came from and it is a bug in my own code.
I made a demo to explain the issue.

Hopefully, this can be hint for people having the same problem.

I have jQuery UI tabs set up, but a problem that I'm having with links to different pages is that they load all contents of the page into the tab. This includes the footer, header, and other navbars that I don't want in the tab. What if I would only like to load a single ID from that page?
My tabs are set up this way:
<div id="mytabs">
<ul>
<li>Awesome page</li>
<li>Foo</li>
</ul>
</div>
Nothing much going on in the jQuery...
$(function() {
$( "#mytabs" ).tabs();
});
Let's say this is the html of "awesomepage" (that the first link targets):
<html>
<head>
<title>awesome page</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">bla</div>
<div id="awesomeness">awesomeness!</div>
<div id="footer">fdsfd</div>
</body>
</html>
...And I only want the tab to load #awesomeness from the page. How would I go about doing this? I've read into some guides that do that by adding a data-target="#youridhere" attribute to the HTML, but I'm still confused on how to implement the javascript. It seems like this is a convenient solution, as I won't be targeting the same ID in every page. Any clues on how to get the javascript working?
Thanks in advance!
The function that allow to load partial code of the response is the $.load() function.
Unfortunately, the tabs() feature does not use this function but use $.ajax instead.
You can try this solution:
You can try to stop the default processing on the beforeLoad callback and manage your ajax call with the $.load() method.
(base on the 1.9 documentation, you may should adapt)
$('#tabs').tabs({
// Callback run when selecting a tab
beforeLoad: function(event, ui) {
// If the panel is already populated do nothing
if (ui.panel.children().size() > 0)
return false;
// Make your own ajax load (with fragment feature)
ui.panel.load(ui.tab.attr('href') + ' #yourFragment');
// stop the default process (default ajax call should not be launched)
return false;
});
NOTICE: I'm not sure about extracting the URL with ui.tab.attr('href'), check before what object is ui.tab, but it should be easy to retrieve the href parameter.
Good luck
Got the solution :) Using one of the answers as a reference point, the tabs can now load a single element specified in the data-target attribute. Here is the modified version:
$(function() {
$('#tabs').tabs(
{
beforeLoad: function(event, ui) {
if (ui.panel.children().size() > 0)
return false;
ui.panel.load($('a', ui.tab).attr('href') + $('a', ui.tab).attr('data-target'));
return false;
}
});
});
I am developing the application using jQuery Mobile 4.1.
In my app, I have two html pages like login.html and home.html. In the home.html have 3 pages. () like menupage, searchpage, resultpage.
The project flow is login.html ---> home.html. In home.html, menupage is displayed as a first page. If I choose the some option in the menupage it will move to searchpage and then resultpage. consider, currently I am in the resultpage. If I press the back button on the mobile browsers (iPhone-safari, Android-chrome) then it moves to the login.html.
But I want to display the searchPage. How to solve this one? is it possible to do this?
[Note : The pages should be in the single html page(home.html).
use the attribute data-rel="back" on the anchor tag instead of the hash navigation, this will take you to the previous page
Look at back linking: Here
Newer versions of JQuery mobile API (I guess its newer than 1.5) require adding 'back' button explicitly in header or bottom of each page.
So, try adding this in your page div tags:
data-add-back-btn="true"
data-back-btn-text="Back"
Example:
<div data-role="page" id="page2" data-add-back-btn="true" data-back-btn-text="Back">
try
$(document).ready(function(){
$('mybutton').click(function(){
parent.history.back();
return false;
});
});
or
$(document).ready(function(){
$('mybutton').click(function(){
parent.history.back();
});
});
You can try this script in the header of HTML code:
<script>
$.extend( $.mobile , {
ajaxEnabled: false,
hashListeningEnabled: false
});
</script>
You can use nonHistorySelectors option from jquery mobile where you do not want to track history. You can find the detailed documentation here http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0a4.1/#docs/api/globalconfig.html
This is for version 1.4.4
<div data-role="header" >
<h1>CHANGE HOUSE ANIMATION</h1>
Back
</div>
try to use li can be more even
<ul>
<li>back</li>
</ul>
I inject html for dialog via script like:
$("#misc-cntr").append('<div id="chk" data-rel="dialog" > </div>');
then in ajax success callback I have:
success: function(msg) {
$('#chk').html(msg)
// open dialog here
// $('#chk').dialog('open') does not work
}
Given above how can I open the dialog programatically?
You'll need to change the page to it, something along the lines of:
$.mobile.changePage($('#chk'), 'pop', false, true);
If you want to close the dialog via javascript, you'll need:
$('#chk').dialog('close');
Hope this helps.
Here's what I used. It's very dirty, but it uses an actual dialog instead of a popping page.
The div:
<div data-role="page" id="score" data-theme="d" data-transition="pop" />
The jQuery code:
var a = $('<a />').attr({
href: '#score',
"data-rel": 'dialog'
}).click();
The changePage function takes an object as second argument. In it you can specify things as role and transition. For your case you need to set role to 'dialog'.
$.mobile.changePage( $('#chk'), { role: 'dialog', transition: 'slide'} );
$.mobile.changePage($('#mydialog'),{'transition':'pop'});
OR
$.mobile.changePage($('#mydialog'),'pop');
When dynamically creating a div using an .ajax() function. I'm unable to attach the .tabs() widget to the newly created .
This link creates the new div and pulls the #tabs div from "somefile.php"
Creates New Div
Here is the dynamically created div:
<div id="newdiv">
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li>Example One</li>
<li>Example Two</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Here is the script I'm using. Output - Error: (d || "").split is not a function
Copy code
$( "#tabs" ).live(function(){
$(this).tabs()
});
I'm able to show the tabs when adding an event parameter, However I want the tabs to display without an event.
Copy code
$( "#tabs" ).live("click", function(){
$(this).tabs()
});
Someone please help me understand what I'm missing. I've been stuck on this for 3 days.
Chris
Are you trying to assign the live handler before the AJAX callback has completed?
My suspicion is you need to move your code into the success handler of your AJAX object and not use live because I don't think it does what you think.
If you post more of your code we'll be able to help you out a bit more.
My guess as to what you're trying to do:
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/tabs/",
async: true,
success: function() {
$('#tabs').tabs()
}
});
RSG is correct in that you're using the live function incorrectly. The live function is specifically for attaching event handlers to elements and calling functions. As RSG pointed out, in your case the best thing to do is call the tabs widget in the success function of the ajax request.
