Have D3 created buttons go to ellipsis - jquery-mobile

I'm working with both the D3 library and the JQuery mobile library, and I run a function using D3 to create a series of buttons. When the webpage is shrunk, the text on these buttons goes off screen rather than going to ellipsis.
Here's the CSS I apply to the button:
.ui-btn{
overflow: hidden !important;
white-space: nowrap !important;
text-overflow: ellipsis !important;
}
D3 function:
var Addedbuttons = d3.select("#TheButtons").selectAll("input")
.data(data)
.enter()
.append('label')
.text(function(d) { return d; })
.append("input")
.attr("type", "radio")
.attr("name","stmntRadio");
This produces something along the lines of this:
where the text is still there, just hidden by the browser.

Print only jQuery UI Dialog Content

I have a modal form, which opens on click of button. it contains text I want to print.
I have hidden every other elements in print.css except the div which contains my print data.
when I press ctrl + p it shows only the data I wanna print, just as I wanted it to be, but it does not fit the printing A4 page. text is positioned in left top corner of paper and part of it (right side) is hidden.
I tried every possible style in print.css to make the content fit printable area, but nothing changes :( could anyone please help?
Use something like:
#media screen {
.printable { display: none; }
.non-printable { display: block; }
}
#media print {
.printable { display: block; }
.non-printable { display: none; }
}
and set margin for your page in the print state.

jquery mobile - forcing panel open on wider screens

I've been trying to test my jquery mobile app on multiple devices. I currently have a panel that is opened via swipe or clicking on a 'menu' button.
However, on wide screens, the app just looks funky. WAY too wide. I understand this is meant for mobile, but, why not format it for ipads/surface/androids as well?
To do this, I'd like to shorten the width by requiring the panel to be open at all times when the width exceeds a specific value.
I've dug through the documentation, and the closest thing I found was:
class="ui-responsive-panel" from the following link: http://view.jquerymobile.com/master/docs/widgets/panels/panel-fixed.php
After adding it to my page header, I noticed that I can't 'swipe' the menu away when the window is wide. When I shrink the window (either on a pc browser, or by rotating the device), it can be swiped.
Is anyone familiar with this, and willing to shed some light?
I'm facing the same problem. I want the panel to stay open when the user turns the device in landscape mode (tablets) or if the window is wider than a specific width at the very beginning.
Unfortunately I did not find any solutions and the jQuery Mobilele example for responsive panels in this case.
So I found a way by using some javascript but I'm not happy with this solutions since a pure CSS solution with media queries would be nicer.
However, here is my "workaround" solution.
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onresize = function (event) {
if (window.innerWidth > 800) {
window.setTimeout(openPanel, 1);
}
if (window.innerWidth < 800) {
window.setTimeout(closePanel, 1);
}
};
function closePanel() {
$("#mypanel").panel("close");
}
function openPanel() {
$("#mypanel").panel("open");
}
$( "#mypanel" ).on( "panelcreate", function( event, ui ) {
if (window.innerWidth > 800) {
openPanel();
}
if (window.innerWidth < 800) {
closePanel();
}
});
</script>
So if the window inner width is higher than 800, the panel opens; if it is lower than 800 it closes. Furthermore the window.onresize function is required to provide the same functionality in case the user turns the device from portrait mode to landscape mode.
Hope it helped. But I'm still looking for a better solution ;)
I found a css-only solution for that issue that is much simpler.
In the media query for your responsive panel #media (min-width:55em){...} add/overwrite the following css classes:
.ui-panel-closed { width: 17em; }
.ui-panel-content-wrap.ui-body-c.ui-panel-animate.ui-panel-content-wrap-closed{ margin-left:17em; }
The second class might be different to yours depending on the swatch you are using; in this case it is "C". However, just take the content wrap class that wraps all your header,content, footer area.
In my example I used a panel with data-display="reveal" data-position="left" If you want it appearing on the right hand side just change margin-left:17em to margin-right:17em
If you want the panel to behave like "overlay", just forget about the second class i posted...
Best regards
I am facing the problem right now and I found the solution of mJay really useful. However it would be great to use media queries instead, something like this perhaps:
#media (min-width:35em){
.ui-panel{
width:30em;
}
.ui-panel-close { width:30em; }
}
Below is my "CSS" solution. What you need to know: mnuMenu is the id of the panel that I want to always have visible on the left side of the screen and lnkMenu is the id of the a tag for the button which normally shows the panel on smaller screen widths.
#media all and (min-width: 900px)
{
#mnuMenu
{
visibility: visible;
position: fixed;
left: 0;
float: left;
width: 300px;
height: 100vh;
background: none;
-webkit-transition: none !important;
-moz-transition: none !important;
transition: none !important;
-webkit-transform: none !important;
-moz-transform: none !important;
transform: none !important;
-webkit-box-shadow: none;
-moz-box-shadow: none;
box-shadow: none;
}
#lnkMenu
{
display: none;
}
.ui-content
{
margin-left: 325px;
}
}

Hide the word "followers" from Twitter follow button

Is there a way to modify the Twitter 'follow' button to display the number of followers in a bubble but hide the word "followers"? I basically want my 'follow' button to look the same as the 'tweet' button.
The current code looks like this:
<a href="https://twitter.com/User" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="true"
data-show-screen-name="false" data-dnt="true">Follow #User</a>
<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id))
{js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>
I had this same issue and solved it by basically hiding the word 'followers' and creating a fake right edge to the bubble, if that makes sense. So, you have to wrap the button in its own div, then hide the overflow of that div and set the width to the exact point where the word disappears and the height precisely to the height of the button you are using. Here's a code example:
#titter-div {
border-radius: 4px; /* to mimic the curved edges of the count box */
border-right: 1px solid #AAAAAA; /* this is the width and color of the count box border */
height: 20px; /* this height works for the medium button */
width: 88px; /* precise width to hide the word */
overflow: hidden; /* actually hides the word */
}
This worked for me to create exactly what you are looking for. Hope this helps.
To display the number of followers in a bubble but hide the word "followers", here is the code I use with an iframe :
<iframe
src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets/follow_button.html?screen_name=Vacance_Luberon&show_screen_name=false"
style="width: 88px; height: 20px;"
allowtransparency="true"
frameborder="0"
scrolling="no">
</iframe>

iOS html5 css3 button click style

I write my application on HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript. For my button I create style (all work fine in browser), but when I start my application on iPad my active effect override standart iOS click effect.
How I can override this standart effect?
My style :
<style type="text/css">
.button {
display: inline-block;
width: 150px;
height: 50px;
background: #f78d1d;
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#faa51a), to(#f47a20));
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #faa51a, #f47a20);
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#faa51a', endColorstr='#f47a20');
}
.button:ACTIVE {
background: #f47c20;
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#f88e11), to(#f06015) );
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #f88e11, #f06015);
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#f88e11', endColorstr='#f06015' );
}
My Button:
The answer to your problem I believe is very simple.
Add this following CSS code to your button or body tag (to affect the entire document).
body { -webkit-appearance: none; }
This will remove default styles for buttons that iOS places onto certain UI elements.
Hope that helps.
I had the same problem use the button tag and it seems to override.
<button class="button">Link</button>

With jQuery, how can I gray out and disable a webpage and then show some kind of spinner on top of that?

I am still pretty "green" when it comes to web development and javascript/jQuery programming, so any help is appreciated. Here is what I want to do.
I want to do the same thing that a jQuery UI dialog box does where it puts a semi-transparent image over the entire page and disables clicking of any of the controls underneath.
I want to know how I might put some kind of spinner overlay on top to show that the website is working in the background. If I can use a animated GIF file that would be fine, but I'm not quite sure on the best approach to this.
Here is an example of the grayed-out effect with a dialog box:
jQuery UI Example. I want to know how to produce this effect without the dialog box on top. I do not have a good example of the spinner behavior.
All suggestions, website referrals, and code is appreciated.
EDIT: I do not mean a "spinner control". I will try to find an example of what I am thinking of by spinner.
EDIT: What I mean by "spinner" is a loading gif of some kind like the "Indicator Big" gif on this website: http://ajaxload.info/
I always like to use the jQuery BlockUI plugin:
http://malsup.com/jquery/block/
Check out the demos, you'll probably find something you're looking for there.
One way to do it is to have a div that is hidden by default and has properties to set the background colour to a grey (#666 for instance) and its transparency set to something like 0.8.
When you want to display use jQuery to get the size of the screen/browser window, set the size of your div and display it with a high zindex, so it displays on top. You can also give this div your spinner gif graphic (no repeat, and centered).
Code:
#json-overlay {
background-color: #333;
opacity: 0.8;
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
z-index: 100;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
background-image: url('ajax-loader.gif');
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
Only things to watch out for are select elements in IE6, as these will show through the div, so you can either use jQuery bgframe to solve that, or what I have done in the past is just hide select elements when displaying the div and showing them again when hiding your div
Why don't you just use "modal:true"?
$(function () {
$("#dialog").dialog($.extend({}, dialogOptions, {
autoOpen: false,
width: 500,
modal: true,
show: {
effect: "blind",
duration: 1000
},
hide: {
effect: "fade",
duration: 1000
}
}));
$("#profile_edit").click(function () {
$("#dialog").dialog("open");
});
$("#save_and_close").click(function () {
$("#dialog").dialog("close");
});
});
You can use something like this jquery code. Pass the id of the element that you want to stay on top of the page:
function startModal(id) {
$("body").prepend("<div id='PopupMask' style='position:fixed;width:100%;height:100%;z-index:10;background-color:gray;'></div>");
$("#PopupMask").css('opacity', 0.5);
$("#"+id).data('saveZindex', $("#"+id).css( "z-index"));
$("#"+id).data('savePosition', $("#"+id).css( "position"));
$("#"+id).css( "z-index" , 11 );
$("#"+id).css( "position" , "fixed" );
}
function stopModal(id) {
if ($("#PopupMask") == null) return;
$("#PopupMask").remove();
$("#"+id).css( "z-index" , $("#"+id).data('saveZindex') );
$("#"+id).css( "position" , $("#"+id).data('savePosition') );
}
you can use simple div and then ajaxstart and ajaxstop event
<div id="cover"></div>
$('#cover')
.hide()
.ajaxStart(function () {
$(this).fadeIn(100);
})
.ajaxStop(function () {
$(this).fadeOut(100);
});
