I'm working with jquery-ui. I can create elements with titles and show the titles. However on a click, I would like to take the title and populate another div (this is because touch enabled devices do not have tooltips). I can get a click event, but I can't get the title while in the click event.
$("div").click(function( event ) {
// just to prove that we are entering this event
$("#preShow").html ( Date() );
// show the title
var toolTip = this.attributes.title.value;
$("#show").html ( toolTip );
// just to prove that there was no crash
$("#postShow").html ( Date() );
});
I have also tried using
var toolTip = $(this).attr ("title");
Here is the jsfiddle showing the problem
http://jsfiddle.net/jK5xQ/
The same code works if I create an HTML file and run it in Firefox with a breakpoint at the first line of the click event. Has anyone experienced this?
This is because jQueryUI's Tooltip removes the title and uses it. Try going about it like this...
$(document).ready(function () {
$( document ).tooltip( {
track: true,
content: function() {
return $( this ).attr( "title" );
}
});
$('div').click(function(){
$('#show').html($('#' + $(this).attr('aria-describedby')).children().html());
});
});

I'm trying to make a jquery-ui tooltip show/hide on a click event. Also I don't want it to show hide on mouse enter/leave.
Here is a fiddle with a normal tooltip : http://jsfiddle.net/Michael_0/sLhD9/
(unfortunately jsfiddle doesn't seem to be able to include jquery-ui from google cdn ?).
I had the idea to disabled the tooltip at initialization then enable it on click just before showing it, it works but I can't prevent the tooltip from hiding when the mouse leaves the target.
$("#myDiv").tooltip({
disabled: true,
content: function () {
return "<div>Custom content</div>"
}
});
$("#myDiv").click(function () {
$(this).tooltip("option", "disabled", false);
$(this).tooltip("open");
});
To do this you need to unbind the default event handlers:
$("#myDiv").unbind('mouseover');
$("#myDiv").attr('ttVisible','no');
$("#myDiv").click(function() {
if($("#myDiv").attr('ttVisible') == 'no') {
$("#myDiv").tooltip('open');
$("#myDiv").unbind('mouseleave');
$("#myDiv").attr('ttVisible','yes');
} else {
$("#myDiv").tooltip('close');
$("#myDiv").attr('ttVisible','no');
}
});
You can track the current state however works for you, I used an attribute called ttVisible. jQuery UI doesn't seem to expose the current state of the tooltip in any way.
I need to do this action on button click, which is in the collapsible, so i do it like:
my_button.closest('div[data-theme="b"]').find('a.ui-btn-up-b').toggleClass('ui-btn-up-b ui-btn-up-d');
But unfortunately there still remains some styles which needs to be changed, but i don't know which...
Updated answer
Since the dynamic solution doesn't work for collapsible, here is a manual solution.
Working demo
Code
$('#button').on('click', function () {
var oldclass = 'ui-btn-up-b ui-body-b';
var newclass = 'ui-btn-up-d ui-body-d';
$('[data-role=collapsible]').find('a').removeClass(oldclass + ' ui-btn-hover-b').addClass(newclass + ' ui-btn-hover-d');
$('[data-role=collapsible]').find('.ui-collapsible-content').removeClass(oldclass).addClass(newclass);
});
Why collapsible data-theme cant be changed dynamically?
Old answer
Unfortunately, the below dynamic solution surprisingly doesn't work.
Where .selector is the ID of the Collapsible.
$('button').on('click', function () {
// change the theme
$( ".selector" ).collapsible( "option", "theme", "a" );
// apply new styles
$( ".selector" ).collapsible().trigger('create');
});
is there a way to manually open close the jquery ui tooltip? I just want it to react to a click event toggling on/off. You can unbind all mouse events and it will rebind them when calling .tooltip('open'), even though that should not initialize or set events imo, since if you try to run .tooltip('open') without initializing, it complains loudly about not being initialized.
jltwoo, can I suggest to use two different boolean switches to enable auto-open and auto-close? With this change your code will look like this:
(function( $ ) {
$.widget( "custom.tooltipX", $.ui.tooltip, {
options: {
autoShow: true,
autoHide: true
},
_create: function() {
this._super();
if(!this.options.autoShow){
this._off(this.element, "mouseover focusin");
}
},
_open: function( event, target, content ) {
this._superApply(arguments);
if(!this.options.autoHide){
this._off(target, "mouseleave focusout");
}
}
});
}( jQuery ) );
In this way, initializing the tooltip as:
$(someDOM).tooltipX({ autoHide:false });
it shows by itself when the mouse is over the element but you have to manually close it.
If you want to manually control both open and close actions, you can simply use:
$(someDOM).tooltipX({ autoShow:false, autoHide:false });
If you want to just unbind the events and woudn't like to make your own custom tooltip.
$("#some-id").tooltip(tooltip_settings)
.on('mouseout focusout', function(event) {
event.stopImmediatePropagation();
});
$("#some-id").attr("title", "Message");
$("#some-id").tooltip("open");
mouseout blocks the tooltop disappearing by moving the mouse cursor
focusout blocks the tooltop disappearing by keyboard navigation
The tooltip have a disable option. Well i used it and here is the code:
$('a').tooltip({
disabled: true
}).click(function(){
if($(this).tooltip('option', 'disabled'))
$(this).tooltip('option', {disabled: false}).tooltip('open');
else
$(this).tooltip('option', {disabled: true}).tooltip('close');
}).hover(function(){
$(this).tooltip('option', {disabled: true}).tooltip('close');
}, function(){
$(this).tooltip('option', {disabled: true}).tooltip('close');
});
Related to my other comment, I looked into the original code and achieved manual open/close by extending the widget and adding a autoHide option with version JQuery-UI v1.10.3. Basically I just remove the mouse listeners that were added in _create and the internal _open call.
Edit: Separated autoHide and autoShow as two separate flags as suggested by #MscG
Demo Here:
http://jsfiddle.net/BfSz3/
(function( $ ) {
$.widget( "custom.tooltipX", $.ui.tooltip, {
options: {
autoHide:true,
autoShow: true
},
_create: function() {
this._super();
if(!this.options.autoShow){
this._off(this.element, "mouseover focusin");
}
},
_open: function( event, target, content ) {
this._superApply(arguments);
if(!this.options.autoHide){
this._off(target, "mouseleave focusout");
}
}
});
}( jQuery ) );
Now when you initialize you can set the tooltip to manually show or hide by setting autoHide : false:
$(someDOM).tooltipX({ autoHide:false });
And just directly perform standard open/close calls in your code as needed elsewhere
$(someDOM).tooltipX("open"); // displays tooltip
$(someDOM).tooltipX("close"); // closes tooltip
A simple hotfix, until I have the time to do official pull request, this will have to do.
Some compilation from other SO questions.
Example
Show tooltip on hint click, and hide tooltip on elsevere click
$(document).on('click', '.hint', function(){ //init new tooltip on click
$(this).tooltip({
position: { my: 'left+15 center', at: 'center right' },
show: false,
hide: false
}).tooltip('open'); // show new tooltip
}).on('click', function(event){ // click everywhere
if(!$(event.target).hasClass('hint'))
$(".hint").each(function(){
var $element = $(this);
if($element.data('ui-tooltip')) { // remove tooltip only from initialized elements
$element.tooltip('destroy');
}
})
});
$('.hint').on('mouseout focusout', function(event) { // prevent auto hide tooltip
event.stopImmediatePropagation();
});
I'm using jqueryui combobox example at http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/combobox.html
I added the script seen below to catch the selected value of combobox:
<div id="selectedOpt">
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#combobox").change(function() {
var retval = $(this).val();
$("#selectedOpt").html("retval=" + retval);
});
});
</script>
However, it does not work as expected:
the div selectedOpt does not show selected value of combobox each time
the change event occurs
If "show underlying effect" is selected (pls try at url above), a standard dropdown list
appear. When trying to change value of
that dropdown list, then the div
selectedOpt is able to show value
correctly.
The goal is to have div selectedOpt display the selected option of the combobox.
Please advise and please explain why (1) does not work while (2) works.
PS: all neccessary js, css are correctly included.
Thanks for your kind attention.
SOLUTION FOUND:
http://robertmarkbramprogrammer.blogspot.com/2010/09/event-handling-with-jquery-autocomplete.html
Please change your script to match the code below:
<script>
function test()
{
var retval = $("[id *=dropdown] :selected").val();
$("#selectedOpt").html("retval=" + retval);
}
</script>
And call this script from the server side like this:
dropdown.Attributes.Add("onchange","javascript: return test();")
To show label or value of combobox in your div you have to include your function as an option. Something like this:
$( ".selector" ).autocomplete({
change: function(event, ui) {
$("#selectedOpt").html("retval=" + ui.item.value);
}
});
Use ui.item.label if you want a label instead.
I can define icon for a jquery ui button in code like this;
$( ".selector" ).button({ icons: {primary:'ui-icon-gear'} });
but I would like to define button icon in HTML code. for example
button
this way I can only call..
$( ".selector" ).button();
in onready event and define icons in code. otherwise I need to call button() method for every button that have different icon.
You could use the Metadata Plugin.
button
And the script
$(".jqbutton")
.each(function(){
var data = $(this).metadata();
$(this).button({ icons: {primary:data.icon} });
});
I've never used this directly, but I have used it through its support in the jquery validation plugin.
The Metadata Plugin works fine, and you can even do more: you can also set ALL the init properties of a jQuery UI button (other widgets too):
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.jq-button').each(function(){
var meta=$(this).metadata();
$(this).button(meta);
});
});
</script>
New item
Thanks, TJB - great idea! :)
You can set the icon after initializing the button using the "options" parameter
$(".jqbutton").button();
$(".jqbutton.ui-icon-gear").button( "option", "icons",
{primary:'ui-icon-gear'} );
http://jqueryui.com/demos/button/#option-icons
EDIT: the link isn't direct, so just look for the Options tab and select 'icons' then look # the section that says 'Get or set the icons option, after init'
The following code looks for "ui-icon-[icon-name]" in the class-attribute of all elements containing the class "jqbutton" and creates a button with an "ui-icon-[icon-name]" icon.
$(function() {
$(".jqbutton").each(function() {
var obj = $(this);
var icon = false;
var c = obj.attr('class');
var i1 = c.indexOf('ui-icon-');
if (i1 != -1) {
var i2 = c.indexOf(" ", i1);
icon = c.substring(i1, i2 != -1 ? i2 : c.length);
obj.removeClass(icon);
}
obj.button({
icons : {
primary : icon
}
});
});
});
