jquery mobile history back - jquery-mobile

The page i use js to show and hide some elements.but there is problem when i use browser back.
<div data-role="page">
<div class="step1">
step1 content...
next
</div>
<div class="step2" style="display:none">
step2 content...
next
</div>
<div class="step3" style="display:none">
step3 content...
next
</div>
<script>
some script...
$('.nextBtn').click(function(){
ok = do something...
if(ok){
$('.step1').hide();
$('.step2').show();
}
});
$('.okBtn').click(function(){
ok = do something...
if(ok){
$('.step2').hide();
$('.step3').show();
}
});
</script>
</div>
but when i use browser back button.there a problem. I mean when 'step2' is showing,i click back button,i want to go 'step1' is show.

If you want .step1 to be visible when you load the page, here's the code.
$(document).on('pagebeforeshow', '[data-role="page"]', function () {
$('div.step1').show();
});

I suggest you to use https://github.com/browserstate/History.js
to manipulate the history of your browser

jquery mobile multiple page, tinyscrollbar missing bar

I try to implement tinyscrollbar (tinyscrollbar.js) into jquery mobile with data-role=page. On the first page it works perfectly fine. but on the second page, the bar is missing. until i clicked on inspect element. I tried tinyscrollbar_update(), update(0), slideToggle().promise()... non works. They all give me different kind of errors.
looks like this
<div class="scrollbar1">
<div class="scrollbar" style="height: 200px;">
<div class="track" style="height: 200px;">
<div class="thumb" style="top: 0px; height: 32.6530612244898px;">
<div class="end"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="viewport">
<div class="overview">//text</div>
</div>
<div id="footerNavigation">
Back
Next
</div>
i copied the exact same code as above to my second page code:
<div id="theNextPage" data-role="page"><!--scrollbar code--></div>
and my javascript file:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.scrollbar1').tinyscrollbar();
});
anybody has any idea how is that so? Any way to solve it?
I have found out away!
change the class into id.
class="scrollbar1" >> id="scrollbar1"
next page:
class="scrollbar2" >> id="scrollbar2"
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#scrollbar1').tinyscrollbar();
$('#scrollbar2').tinyscrollbar();
});
$(document).on("pageshow", "#theNextPage", function () {
var $scrollbar2 = $('#scrollbar2');
$scrollbar2.tinyscrollbar();
var scrollbar1 = $scrollbar2.data("plugin_tinyscrollbar")
$scrollbar2.update(0);
});
like this would be better

JQM 1.3 changePage 'role dialog' fails in Chrome

I need to change to a different page on start up and I want it to be a dialog.
This works in 1.2 and works with IE and FireFox in 1.3.
Chrome displays the dialog then immediately reverts to the first page.
If I remove the "role: dialog" it works with everyone. I've tried a hidden hyperlink that I force a click on ... same result. Chrome (latest version) reverts to page1.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Here is a simplified fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/stocksp/P4ZWj/3/
div data-role="page" id="page1">
<div data-role="content">
<h6>page one content</h6>
</div>
</div>
<div data-role="page" id="page2">
<div data-role="header">
<h1 class="title">My DIALOG </h1>
</div><!-- /header -->
<div data-role="content">
Dialog Content
</div>
</div>
$(document).delegate("#page1", "pageinit", function () {
$.mobile.changePage('#page2', { transition: 'pop', role: 'dialog' });
});
Quick workaround til this is fixed: wrap the changePage method in a setTimeout...
$(document).delegate("#page1", "pageinit", function () {
setTimeout(function () {
$.mobile.changePage('#page2', { transition: 'pop', role: 'dialog' });
}, 100);
});

Why can't I change page after submitting form?

I should see: "Hello" after hitting submit, but I don't. Why?
http://jsfiddle.net/GbfLG/1/
<div data-role="page" id="create">
<script type="text/javascript">
alert("HERE");
$('#form').submit(function() {
$.post("/").success(function(resp) {
alert("RET");
$.mobile.changePage($("#final"));
});
return false;
});
</script>
<div data-role="content">
<form id="form">
<input type="submit" name="g" value="Submit" id="g"/>
</form>
</div>
</div>
<div data-role="page" id="final">
Hello
</div>​
jQM has a different set of rules then the normal web page. You have used your java script in the wrong place. With jQM, if possible write all you js code in separate file/files.
This is a fix made to your jsFiddle code, it is working now, I have just put it in right context. Your js code was not changed a bit.
Example:
$('#create').live('pagebeforeshow',function(e,data){
$('#form').submit(function() {
$.post("/").success(function(resp) {
$.mobile.changePage($("#final"));
});
return false;
});
});
Your form is submiting - the return false; isn't working as it should.
Try..
$('#form').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
... stuff ...
});
Also in your fiddle you haven't defined $.changePage so it comes out as 'undefined'.

backbone view passed to jQuery Mobile

I've been trying to use backbonejs and jqm together.
I can render the main page alright. The page has a list that the user can tap on. The item selected should show a detail page with info on the list item selected. The detail page is a backbone view with a template that's rendered in the item's view object.
The detail's view .render() produces the html ok and I set the html of the div tag of the main page to the rendered item's detail markup. It looks like this:
podClicked: function (event) {
console.log("PodListItemView: got click from:" + event.target.innerHTML + " id:" + (this.model.get("id") ? this.model.get("id") : "no id assigned") + "\n\t CID:" + this.model.cid);
var detailView = new PodDetailView({ model: this.model });
detailView.render();
},
The detail view's render looks like this:
render: function () {
this.$el.html(this.template({ podId: this.model.get("podId"), isAbout_Name: this.model.get("isAbout_Name"), happenedOn: this.model.get("happenedOn") }));
var appPageHtml = $(app.el).html($(this.el));
$.mobile.changePage(""); // <-- vague stab in the dark to try to get JQM to do something. I've also tried $.mobile.changePage(appPageHtml).
console.log("PodDetailView: render");
return this;
}
I can see that the detail's view has been rendered on the page by checking Chrome's dev tools html editor but it's not displaying on the page. All I see is a blank page.
I've tried $.mobile.changePage() but, without an URL it throws an error.
How do I get JQM to apply it's class tags to the rendered html?
the HTML and templates look like this:
<!-- Main Page -->
<div id="lessa-app" class="meditator-image" data-role="page"></div>
<!-- The rest are templates processed through underscore -->
<script id="app-main-template" type="text/template">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>#ViewBag.Title</h1>
</div>
<!-- /header -->
<div id="main-content" data-role="content">
<div id="pod-list" data-theme="a">
<ul data-role="listview" >
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div id="main-footer" data-role='footer'>
<div id="newPod" class="ez-icon-plus"></div>
</div>
</script>
<script id="poditem-template" type="text/template">
<span class="pod-listitem"><%= isAbout_Name %></span> <span class='pod-listitem ui-li-aside'><%= happenedOn %></span> <span class='pod-listitem ui-li-count'>5</span>
</script>
<script id="page-pod-detail-template" type="text/template">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>Pod Details</h1>
</div>
<div data-role="content">
<div id='podDetailForm'>
<fieldset data-role="fieldcontain">
<legend>PodDto</legend>
<label for="happenedOn">This was on:</label>
<input type="date" name="name" id="happenedOn" value="<%= happenedOn %>" />
</fieldset>
</div>
<button id="backToList" data-inline="false">Back to list</button>
</div>
<div data-role='footer'></div>
</script>
Thanks in advance for any advice... is this even doable?
I've finally found a way to do this. My original code has several impediments to the success of this process.
The first thing to do is to intercept jquerymobile's (v.1.2.0) changePage event like this:
(I've adapted the outline from jqm's docs and left in the helpful comments: see http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.2.0/docs/pages/page-dynamic.html
)
$(document).bind("pagebeforechange", function (e, data) {
// We only want to handle changePage() calls where the caller is
// asking us to load a page by URL.
if (typeof data.toPage === "string") {
// We are being asked to load a page by URL, but we only
// want to handle URLs that request the data for a specific
// category.
var u = $.mobile.path.parseUrl(data.toPage),
re = /^#/;
// don't intercept urls to the main page allow them to be managed by JQM
if (u.hash != "#lessa-app" && u.hash.search(re) !== -1) {
// We're being asked to display the items for a specific category.
// Call our internal method that builds the content for the category
// on the fly based on our in-memory category data structure.
showItemDetail(u, data.options); // <--- handle backbone view.render calls in this function
// Make sure to tell changePage() we've handled this call so it doesn't
// have to do anything.
e.preventDefault();
}
}
});
The changePage() call is made in the item's list backbone view events declaration which passes to the podClicked method as follows:
var PodListItemView = Backbone.View.extend({
tagName: 'li', // name of (orphan) root tag in this.el
attributes: { 'class': 'pod-listitem' },
// Caches the templates for the view
listTemplate: _.template($('#poditem-template').html()),
events: {
"click .pod-listitem": "podClicked"
},
initialize: function () {
this.model.bind('change', this.render, this);
this.model.bind('destroy', this.remove, this);
},
render: function () {
this.$el.html(this.listTemplate({ podId: this.model.get("podId"), isAbout_Name: this.model.get("isAbout_Name"), happenedOn: this.model.get("happenedOn") }));
return this;
},
podClicked: function (event) {
$.mobile.changePage("#pod-detail-page?CID='" + this.model.cid + "'");
},
clear: function () {
this.model.clear();
}
});
In the 'showItemDetail' function the query portion of the url is parsed for the CID of the item's backbone model. Again I've adapted the code provided in the jquerymobile.com's link shown above.
Qestion: I have still figuring out whether it's better to have the code in showItemDetail() be inside the view's render() method. Having a defined function seems to detract from backbone's architecture model. On the other hand, having the render() function know about calling JQM changePage seems to violate the principle of 'separation of concerns'. Can anyone provide some insight and guidance?
// the passed url looks like #pod-detail-page?CID='c2'
function showItemDetail(urlObj, options) {
// Get the object that represents the item selected from the url
var pageSelector = urlObj.hash.replace(/\?.*$/, "");
var podCid = urlObj.hash.replace(/^.*\?CID=/, "").replace(/'/g, "");
var $page = $(pageSelector),
// Get the header for the page.
$header = $page.children(":jqmData(role=header)"),
// Get the content area element for the page.
$content = $page.children(":jqmData(role=content)");
// The markup we are going to inject into the content area of the page.
// retrieve the selected pod from the podList by Cid
var selectedPod = podList.getByCid(podCid);
// Find the h1 element in our header and inject the name of the item into it
var headerText = selectedPod.get("isAbout_Name");
$header.html("h1").html(headerText);
// Inject the item info into the content element
var view = new PodDetailView({ model: selectedPod });
var viewElHtml = view.render().$el.html();
$content.html(viewElHtml);
$page.page();
// Enhance the listview we just injected.
var fieldContain = $content.find(":jqmData(role=listview)");
fieldContain.listview();
// We don't want the data-url of the page we just modified
// to be the url that shows up in the browser's location field,
// so set the dataUrl option to the URL for the category
// we just loaded.
options.dataUrl = urlObj.href;
// Now call changePage() and tell it to switch to
// the page we just modified.
$.mobile.changePage($page, options);
}
So the above provides the event plumbing.
The other problem I had was that the page was not set up correctly. It's better to put the page framework in the main html and not put it in an underscore template to be rendered at a later time. I presume that avoids issues where the html is not present when jqm takes over.
<!-- Main Page -->
<div id="lessa-app" data-role="page">
<div data-role="header">
<h1></h1>
</div>
<!-- /header -->
<div id="main-content" data-role="content">
<div id="pod-list" data-theme="a">
<ul data-role="listview">
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div id="main-footer" data-role='footer'>
<div id="main-newPod" class="ez-icon-plus"></div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- detail page -->
<div id="pod-detail-page" data-role="page">
<div data-role="header">
<h1></h1>
</div>
<div id="detail-content" data-role="content">
<div id="pod-detail" data-theme="a">
</div>
</div>
<div id="detail-footer" data-role='footer'>
back
</div>
</div>

Show feedback to a user when loading content though ajax

I'm using the jquery tab plugin with the same results that are on jquery ui site (link text).
The problem is that I want to change the tab label to something like "Loading" when the Ajax request is waiting for a response. How shall I achieve that?
Edit:
What I have now:
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li>User Profile</li>
<li>Edit</li>
<li>Delete AccountT</li>
</ul>
<div id="tabs-1">
<% Html.RenderPartial("UserProfile", Model); %>
</div>
</div>
and on javascript I just have the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
$("#tabs").tabs({
});
});
</script>
What i want is to show a loading message inside the div of the active tab.
According to the widget doc, ajax should work outside the box if your href is an actual link :
To customize loading message, you can use the spinner option :
Fetch external content via Ajax for
the tabs by setting an href value in
the tab links. While the Ajax request
is waiting for a response, the tab
label changes to say "Loading...",
then returns to the normal label once
loaded.
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#tabs" ).tabs({
spinner: "<em>My Loading Msg</em>",
ajaxOptions: {
error: function( xhr, status, index, anchor ) {
$( anchor.hash ).html(
"Couldn't load this tab. We'll try to fix this as soon as possible. " +
"If this wouldn't be a demo." );
}
}
});
});
</script>
Why don't you just set the tab label to "loading" onclick and change it to whatever you want once you get a response back from your AJAX?
$(function () {
$("#tabs").tabs();
$("#tab1").click(function() {
$(this).val("Loading...");
$.ajax({
blablabla...
success: function() {
$("#tab1").val("Tab 1");
}
});
});
This should give you an idea, obviously the function could be written better to act on each tab.
I think what you are after already exists in the jquery ui for Tabs.
The HTML content of this string is
shown in a tab title while remote
content is loading.
http://jqueryui.com/demos/tabs/#option-spinner
Hope this helps!
From your example am I correct in assuming that you want to navigate to another page when the user clicks on either of the second two tabs, but you want a loading message to be displayed while you are waiting for the next tab to load?
If so, you could do it by keeping a loading message in the other tabs like so:
<input type="hidden" id="modelId" value="<%=Model.Id%>" />
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li>
User Profile
</li>
<li>
Edit
</li>
<li>
Delete AccountT
</li>
</ul>
<div id="tabs-1">
<% Html.RenderPartial("UserProfile", Model); %>
</div>
<div id="tabs-2">
<p>Loading, please wait...</p>
</div>
<div id="tabs-3">
<p>Loading, please wait...</p>
</div>
</div>
And doing the redirection to your other pages in your javascript, doing it something like this:
$(document).ready(document_ready);
function document_ready()
{
$("tabs").bind("tabsselect", onTabSelected);
}
function onTabSelected(event, ui)
{
var modelId = $("#modelId").val();
switch (ui.panel.id)
{
case "tabs-2":
window.location.href = "/User/EditUser/" + modelId;
break;
case "tabs-3":
window.location.href = "/User/Delete/" + modelId;
break;
}
}
