I'm following the modal dialog example on jQuery UI website but not having any luck getting the dialog to be displayed. The example creates and opens the dialog from a button-cllick but I'm trying to launch it from a click on a TD element. Is that possible?
Assume that your td element has clickable_td id and also your dialog block has dialog id, So you can attach click event handler for td emelent with the on() function object and show your dialog block with dialog() function object while clicks captured like this:
$('#clickable_td').on('click',function(){$('#dialog').dialog();});
NOTE: The default jQuery z-index is 100, if your layouts' elements have higher value of it, try this instead:
$('#clickable_td').on('click',function(){$('#dialog').dialog();$('div.ui-front').removeClass('ui-front').css({zIndex: "10000"})});
This code basically creates a block UI. Instead of using jquery block UI dialog, you can use jquery blockUI plugin. You can refer the link to understand the code.
http://www.malsup.com/jquery/block/#demos
In the below example #yourtd_id is the id of your td and #your_div is the div which you want to make as modal. When the td is clicked .blockUI is a class which display your_div on the screen. Now it like a modal dialog. To come out of the modal dialog insert a button on #your_div and give id as #cancel_btn. When the #cancel_btn is clicked .unblockUI() unblocks the UI i.e unblocks the modal dialog.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#yourtd_id').click(function() {
$.blockUI({ message: $('#your_div') });
//keep a cancel button on #your_div. for eg: consider its id as #cancel_btn
});
$('#cancel_btn').click(function(){
$.unblockUI();
});
});
This will work.I hope this will help you.

I have this table on my site that when you hover over the tabs, it changes it. But I want to make it so it works on click I tried defining that on my code by saying:
$("#tabs").tabs();
But it is not overriding the jquery UI CDNed file main event which is mouseover. I can see on console under eventlistener that it has a mouseover listener attached to it, how do I override that to work on click. I also tried this, but it didn't work:
$("#tabs").tabs({
event: "click"
});
I have a need to capture an event (like a click) on a object that is elsewhere on the page and not a child of the select2 object while the select2 object has focus and is showing results. When the select2 results object is focused, I cannot click on a button/anchor elsewhere on the page and have it perform its action. It merely closes the select2 object.
Is there a way to do this? Here is a demo that shows this behavior: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/JoJobW
<!-- Javascript snippet -->
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#e1").select2();
$("#e2").click(function(){
alert("click!");
e.preventDefault();
});
});
<!-- HTML snippet -->
<select id="e1"></select>
Click here when select2 is focused
Using select2 v3.5.2 and jQuery 1.11.0
Select2 places a "mask" element behind the drop-down that captures the mouse click. Others have complained about this.
Here is a jsfiddle that shows the mask element.
You could try to remove the mask element when the drop-down is opened.
$('#e1').select2().on('select2-open', function() {
$('.select2-drop-mask').remove();
});
Of course, this means the drop-down will not close when the user clicks off of it, but you could add an event handler on the document (or body) to do that.
$(document).click(function() {
$("#e1").select2('close');
});
You have to make sure the click event on the other element does not propagate to the document in that case.
$('#e2').click(function() {
alert('click!');
return false; // Prevent default action and stop propagation.
});

I have several jQueryUI dialogs with Ok and Cancel and radio buttons (no text input).
My requirements are:
OK button should be right of the Cancel button and Ok button should be in focus:
when the dialog opens,
after any user click or drag.
Requirement no 1 can be implemented by giving the Ok button an id and the following code:
open: function(event, ui) {
$('#OkButton').focus();
},
Requirement no 2 is harder. It could be implemented by defining focusing delegates for a lot of events:
.ui-dialog-titlebar click
.ui-dialog-buttonpane click
dragStop
etc
But surely there must be a simpler way?
Try this code. myDialog is main dialog div When you drag your dialog this will do the job
jQuery('.myDialog').bind('move', function(e) {
$('#OkButton').focus();
}).bind('moveend', function() {});
and when you click on your dialog main div this will do the job.
jQuery('.myDialog').click(function(){
$('#OkButton').focus();
});
I am working on drag and drop tool using jQuery UI's sortable widget.
I'd like to add a message into an empty div where something can be dragged into, like: "drag here". I'd like to remove this message as soon as something is in that div. There will be times when the page loads with something already in that div, so it can't be only on action, but onload needs to check it too.
How do I go about it?
Here's my code:
$("#divFrom, #divTo").sortable({
connectWith: '.connectedSortable'
}).disableSelection();
You should be able to set up a draggable, and droppable and tap into droppable's drop event handler, which is fired when an item is dropped:
$("#target").droppable({
drop: function() {
// Empty the droppable div:
$(".message").remove();
}
});
Demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/andrewwhitaker/rUgJF/2/
As for doing something similar on load, if you provided your markup it would make providing a solution a little easier (is there a specific element inside the droppable div that you could check for?)
Hope that helps.
I currently use jTemplates to create a rather large table on the client, each row has a button that will open a jQuery UI dialog. However, when I scroll down the page and click on one of those buttons, jQuery dialog will open, but the scroll position get lost and the page jumps back to the top (with the blocking and the actual dialog showing off the screen). Has anyone seen or know what might cause this problem?
Thanks.
Are you using an anchor tag to implement the "button" that pops the dialog? If so, you'll want the click handler that opens the dialog to return false so that the default action of the anchor tag isn't invoked. If you are using a button, you'd also need to make sure that it doesn't submit (by returning false from the handler) and completely refresh the page.
For example,
$('a.closeButton').click( function() {
$('#dialog').dialog('open');
return false;
});
<a class='closeButton'>Close</a>
If your buttons work with an html anchor tag with href="#" replace the href for example by href="javascript:;" or any other method that you use to disable the href. The reason why the scrolling happens is because of href="#" scrolls to the top of your page.
change your code like this
$('a.closeButton').click( function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#dialog').dialog('open');
});
You can try :
scrollTo(0, jQuery("body"));
