How do programatically change the attributes of <sj:tabbedpanel> - jquery-ui

I am using Struts jQuery plugin. Problem is with <sj:tabbedpanel>.
I want to preselect the tab depending on the input while loading the page.
I know there is property selectedTab="1".
But I want it to change it while loading the page using jQuery.
In jQuery-UI plugin, there is function $("#tab").tabs('selected',2) which does that.
What is the similar function which does the same thing here.

Try this:
<sj:tabbedpanel id="tabbed" selectedTab="%{selected}"></sj:tabbedpanel>
selected should be a parameter, which decides the opened tab.
If you still wanna use jQuery, please check the api: jQuery Tabs API
here is the important part:
A series of events fire when interacting with a tabs interface:
tabsselect, tabsload, tabsshow (in that order)
tabsadd, tabsremove
tabsenable, tabsdisable

If you want to do this from javascript then use option to set selected tab.
$("#tab").tabs( "option", "selected", 2);

jquery ui tabs multiple calls to tabs()

I have a page where I put my tab content into a div.
This work fine and I can see the tabs.
Later, an event occurs (like selecting a combo box value) and I want to change to another set of tab.
I basically did:
('#divId').empty();
someData.appendTo("#divId");
$("#divId").tabs();
Here is the problem, this 2nd call show me a list:
. tabName1
. tabName2
..... etc
Any idea what's going on, seems like the call to .tabs() work only once when I first load the page.
Thanks.
Check the value of someData, it might contain invalid html that cannot handled when you call the jquery tabs() method again.
One way to do it is:
console.log(someData);
Then if you're using chrome, hit F12 then click on "Console".
$("#detailUL").append("<li><a href='#tabs3-"+id+"'>Desc No "+m+"</a></li>"); // desc
$("#details").append("<div id='tabs3-"+id+"' class='it_detail'>"+copy+"</div>"); // detail
$("#detailPanel").tabs("refresh");

Using specific elements of jQuery Mobile and not others

Is there any way of using jQuery Mobile for only certain features such as toggle on/off switches but not have it take over the entire CSS?
You can use native form elements:
http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0rc2/docs/forms/forms-all-native.html
Related:
Tell JQuery Mobile not to add classes?
You can set this per element with a data-role="none" attribute on the element or bind to the mobileinit event like so:
$(document).bind('mobileinit',function(){
$.mobile.page.prototype.options.keepNative = "select, input.foo, textarea.bar";
});
Notice how you can add classes to the selectors.
From the docs:
Or, if you'd like to prevent auto-initialization without adding
attributes to your markup, you can customize the selector that is used
for preventing auto-initialization by setting the page plugin's
keepNative option (which defaults to [data-role="none"]. Be sure to
configure this option inside an event handler bound to the mobileinit
event, so that it applies to the first page as well as subsequent
pages that are loaded.
Docs on this can be found here: http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0rc2/docs/forms/docs-forms.html

How do I clear the JQuery Mobile list search filter?

I have a JQuery Mobile (1.0rc1) application that has a list view with a search filter implemented. It's similar to this sample.
Under certain conditions, I am dynamically loading additional items into the list with an ajax call. When this happens I want to clear anything entered in the search filter, otherwise I end up with a partially filtered list.
I've tried firing the clear button like this:
$('.ui-button-clear', $.mobile.activePage).click();
and clearing the form like this:
$("form > input", $.mobile.activePage).val('');
but neither worked. Can someone enlighten me to the proper way to accomplish this?
You should be able to clear clear the searchfilter with
$('input[data-type="search"]').val("");
Edit: To update the list you will also have to trigger the "change"-event on the searchfilter:
$('input[data-type="search"]').trigger("keyup");
JSFiddle
if you talking about Jquery mobile listview, then you need this
$('#autocomplete li').click(function () {
$('.ui-input-clear').trigger("click");
});
I use the following code:
$("form")[0].reset();
The [0] points to the DOM element method.

My dropdown is not showing the data

I am having a html dropdown
<select id="ExternalIp" onchange="externalIpchange()"></select>
I bind the data to dropdown through jquery and a I am passing data from controller which is working properly. I want to change the look and feel of the dropdown so I called a function
$("#ExternalIp").selectbox();
Now the look and feel of drop down is changed but it is not showing the data which I bind to dropdown. I am not getting what is the problem. Plz help
It appears as if the jQuery plugin you are using resets the values bound to the select list.
Look for a method provided within your jQuery plugin to rebind the data which you earlier attached with jQuery or style your element first and then try binding the values.

How can one change the url for a jquery ui tab added via 'add' and 'tabTemplate' functionality?

I might be making this more difficult than I need to but I am in some need of assistance. I have some jquery ui tabs which are added via the add functionality. these tabs are via ajax.
I have a tabTemplate set as follows on the initial addition of the tabs.
tabTemplate: "<li><a href='#{href}'>#{label},/a><li>"
And the add tab functionality is done via
$tabs.tabs('add', 'http://thanksforyourhelp/greatly/appreciated/, some_title_var)
If a form is submitted on that tab, data is written to the database. The response gives an ID of the row added to the database.
Next time that specific tab is visited the link should actually be 'http://thanksforyourhelp/greatly/appreciated/ID' where the ID is now known since the response from the form (ajax here as well) sent it back. This will pre-populate the forms on the page based off the data in the database for "ID."
I've looked at the example here, but my href is an id for the tab in question (and not a url). Where is the actual url stored?
The tab looks like this.
new
I have tried changing the href on that, but upon clicking the tab the content is loaded without ajax instead of within the tab as desired. What might I be doing wrong here? Thanks for your help.
Edit: removed edits with references of no longer existent urls.
I haven't worked with AJAX-powered tabs too much, but I think you want the url method:
$("#tabs").tabs("url", index, url)
Change the url from which an Ajax
(remote) tab will be loaded. The
specified URL will be used for
subsequent loads. Note that you can
not only change the URL for an
existing remote tab with this method,
but also turn an in-page tab into a
remote tab.
Above answer will not work in JQuery 1.9+ as describer here. To work with jquery ui tabs 1.9+ you have to do something like this
var tabs = $("#tabs");
var tab = $(tabs.data('uiTabs').tabs[TAB_INDEX]);
tab.find('.ui-tabs-anchor').attr('href', "NEW_URL");
// If cached initially. Remove cache then
tab.data( "loaded", false);
tabs.tabs( "option", "active", TAB_INDEX);
tabs.tabs("load", TAB_INDEX);
This will change the URL of tab at particular index and load that tab.
