I want to have 2 buttons in the footer, one on the left side and the other on the right side.
With dataposition fixed, however right side button going little outside the page view.
Here is the code.
<div data-role="footer" data-theme="d" class="ui-bar" style="height:30px" data-position="fixed">
<a class="ui-btn-left" data-role="button" data-theme="a" id="approvetm">
Approve
</a>
<a id="sendback" data-rel="popup" data-theme="a" class="ui-btn-right" data-role="button" data-inline="true">Send Back</a>
</div>
Can you please tell me what is wrong in above code.....?
As per jQuery Mobile documentation footer is different than header in terms of buttons accommodation.
The page footer is very similar to the header in terms of options and configuration. The primary difference is that the footer is designed to be less structured than the header to allow more flexibility, so the framework doesn't automatically reserve slots for buttons to the left or right as it does in headers
However, this can be fixed by overriding ui-btn-right style (right position).
.ui-footer .ui-btn-right { right: 35px !important }
Demo
can you please tell me how to how header label left side with button on right side .
i found like this
<div data-role="header">
Cancel
<h1>Edit Contact</h1>
Save
But i need like this
My case label on left side and button on right side
You can do like that, DEMO http://jsfiddle.net/yeyene/5kfnT/3/
JQM DOC: http://view.jquerymobile.com/1.3.1/dist/demos/widgets/headers/
Custom header configurations
If you need to create a header that doesn't follow the default configuration, simply wrap your custom styled markup in any container, such as div. The plugin won't apply the automatic button logic to the wrapped content inside the header container so you can write custom styles for laying out the content in your header.
It's also possible to create custom bars without using the header data-role at all. For example, start with any container and add the ui-bar class to apply standard bar padding and add the ui-bar-b class to assign the bar swatch styles from your theme. (The "b" can be any swatch letter.)
<div data-role="header" data-position="fixed">
<div class="ui-block-a"><h3>Header</h3></div>
<div class="ui-block-b"> </div>
<div class="ui-block-c"> </div>
<div class="ui-block-d">
A
B
C
</div>
</div>
You can do it this way, override ui-title and ui-btn-right styles. However, for the second button, give it a custom class in order not to override both button with ui-btn-right. I used custom class .second for the second button.
Demo
CSS - I used .ui-header in order not to change footer style.
.ui-header .ui-title {
margin-left: 2px !important;
text-align: left !important;
width: 150px !important;
}
.second.ui-btn-right {
right: 80px !important
}
HTML
<div data-role="header">
Cancel
<h1>Edit Contact</h1>
Save
</div>
I have the following collapsible content with jQuery Mobile. How can I stop the heading being shortened?
At the moment the text is cut off so it reads something like 'Really long heading...' Do I need to do this manually with css or is there a JQB setting I can change?
<div data-role="collapsible">
<h4>
Really long heading goes here thats wider than the page width
</h4>
<p>
Content Content Content Content Content Content
</p>
</div>
Here is the documentation
http://jquerymobile.com/test/docs/content/content-collapsible.html
It seems this CSS is causing the behavior. I could overwrite this rule if there isnt a standard JQM method for doing this.
.ui-btn-inner {
white-space: nowrap;
}
You need to remove this css:
white-space: nowrap;
from its inner span (span witch wrap's text). Or replace it with:
white-space: normal;
Or change jQM css file (.ui-btn-inner) but this will also effect every other element using this class.
Or use this line:
$('div[data-role="collapsible"] h4 a span span.ui-btn-text').css({'white-space':'normal'});
There's no other way, or at lease not buy changing some jQM UI element attribute.
When I place text buttons next to notext buttons in the header, the notext button show up slightly lower than. I've tried setting margin-top and padding-top for ui-btn-icon-notext, but that does not seem to have an effect.
<div data-role="header" class="ui-bar">
...
<div class="ui-btn-right">
Sign In
Home
...
</div>
</div>
Not really sure why it is happening but a quick (and dirty) fix could be like this:
a.custom-class-name-for-no-text-buttons {
top: -2px !important;
}

I was seeing a strange phenomena when using Scriptaculous BlindDown and SlideDown effects, where they would smoothly slide, and then at the very end, they would jump an additional amount, maybe 10% of the slide distance.
I already saw the note on the BlindDown page that you have to be sure not to use padding, which I'd already done.
I was still thinking that this must be my mistake somehow, when I noticed that I see the exact same thing happening on their demo page for Toggle when clicking on either the Blind or Slide demos:
http://wiki.github.com/madrobby/scriptaculous/effect-toggle
Firefox 3.6.7, Chrome 6, and Internet Explorer 8 all display this effect on my computer.
So I was thinking about just writing it off and either living with it or cutting the effect out, when I noticed that the page for BlindDown does not display this effect:
http://wiki.github.com/madrobby/scriptaculous/effect-blinddown
So there must be a way to make this work. On my page, the jump is occurring whether I directly use BlindDown/Slide or whether I use Toggle.
Has anyone out there used these and managed to do so without this problem? Any ideas on what the secret is?
It's usually due to margin or padding.
The element you're blind-downing mustn't have any margin or padding, or should have margin:0.1% so that contained margins don't collapse through the bounds of the element either. If you do this it'll be smooth as silk.
also - ensure you've set overflow:hidden
Enjoy.
(the other place it'll fall down is if you don't define height. If you do this little incantation before you animate it'll get and set you height without bothering anything else.
elem.setStyle({position:'absolute',visiblity:'invisible'});
elem.setStyle({'height':elem.getDimensions().height+'px'});
elem.setStyle({position:'relative',visibility:'visible'}); //or position:'static'
In my experience, the jumping is just a performance issue, which is effected by the system specs, browser, and complexity of the html content you are toggling. Some browsers like safari and chrome have a pretty good javascript engine making them more efficient.
I see this is happening for you even when using chrome though? Is the html content particularly complex, or your computer overloaded with applications running?
There is definitely a little very well known secret... Have you tried wrapping your content in an extra div container? You should consider this best practice and almost a requirement specifically when using Scriptaculous effects.
For example... Say you want to slideDown or Toggle a login form - and you have::
<div id="login-panel">
<input type="text" name="username" />
<button type="submit" name="send">Login</button>
</div>
All you have to do is add an extra inner div tag::
<div id="login-panel">
<div><!-- extra div here -->
<input type="text" name="username" />
<button type="submit" name="send">Login</button>
</div><!-- close it here -->
</div>
Now when you do something like Effect.toggle("login-panel", 'slide'); the transition should be much smoother and less jumpy. It may seem a little sloppy but it almost always helps. Hope this helps you!!
Keep in mind that when Scriptaculous begins an animation, the container that is being modified will be absolutely positioned and then a record of the height will be taken, similar to what danielsherson mentions. If however the container does not exist within a relatively positioned parent container, then the dimensions of the animating container may change quite drastically. The easiest way to test this is to modify your container using firebug to set the position to absolute. What happens? Did the height change? For the best results, there should be no change in the dimensions of your animating container when switching to absolute positioning. What happens to the rest of your document, such as content moving underneath, will not matter.
The padding/margin issue is a tricky one too since there really isn't a way to prevent the margins from overlapping and creating issues. Best way I found to address this is to set your animating container to float and then use the clearfix hack on a parent container to make sure nothing overlaps.
<body style="margin: 0 auto; width: 300px; position: relative; background: black;">
<div class="parent nonanimating clearfix">
<div class="animating" style="float: left; width: 100%; background: white;">
<div class="apply-your-margins-and-padding-here">
...content...
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="parent nonanimating clearfix">
<div class="animating" style="float: left; width: 100%; background: white;">
<div class="apply-your-margins-and-padding-here">
...content...
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Note that the classes are not functional and just for reference to my comments with the exception of clearfix, which is the float clear hack. The backgrounds and widths are only specified to give a better example of what is happening. Add whatever animation you'd like to $$('.animating')
I use this one (there are many), all though it is old and I don't even design for many of the browsers this hack supports..
.clearfix:after {
content: ".";
display: block;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
height: 0;
}
.clearfix {
display: inline-block;
}
/* Hides from IE-mac \*/
* html .clearfix {height: 1%;}
.clearfix {display: block;}
/* End hide from IE-mac */
I don't think it's a performance issue at all. I'm having the same issue. The ONLY way I've been able to make it not jump is to define a height for the div I'm sliding. I realize that this is NOT a good solution but it's the only one I've been able to find. I've also tried adding the additional div and it had no effect on how the Effect.toggle slide worked.
If anyone else has any more info on this, I'm all ears.
To prevent a Scriptaculous effect from jumping or jerking, remove the 'style' attribute from the element which you are applying the Effect to.
This:
<div id="mydiv" style="padding:10px;margin:10px;">
<button onClick="new Effect.BlindUp('mydiv');" />
</div>
Becomes:
<div id="mydiv">
<button onClick="new Effect.BlindUp('mydiv');" />
</div>
The styling can be placed in a enclosed div like this:
<div id="mydiv">
<div style="padding:10px;margin:10px;">
<button onClick="new Effect.BlindUp('mydiv');" />
</div>
</div>
The problem is caused by Scriptaculous reapplying the element's (mydiv) inline style declarations after the effect has been performed.
I have found success with using position: relative; on the block element using the slide/blind animation. Make sure padding/margins are placed on the child elements and not the slide block element.
