Scriptaculous Effect Queue Not Working - scriptaculous

I've used Scriptaculous before (including effect queues). For some reason, I can not get two images to animate one after the other. Here is the html code:
<img id=redDot src='images/home_img_icon1.jpg'>
<br>
<br>
<img id=text55 style="display:none" src='images/home_img_icon2.jpg'>
and my scriptaculous code:
<script language="javascript">
Effect.Grow('redDot');
Effect.Appear('text55', {queue : 'end'});
</script>
You can see a live demo here: http://www.365pledge.com/tmp/55Thompson/prototype/
What I want is for the first image to grow, and then for the other image to appear. Instead, they both animate at the same time. Thanks for any help you can provide!

Your usage should work, but just in case, did you try :
new Effect.Grow('redDot', { queue: 'front' });
new Effect.Appear('text55', { queue: 'end' });
Also, missing the "new" in front of your effects might be what's bugging it.

Reveal.js: Add fragments inside code

I've got a presentation running with reveal.js and everything is working. I am writing some sample code and highlight.js is working well within my presentation. But, I want to incrementally display code. E.g., imagine that I'm explaining a function to you, and I show you the first step, and then want to show the subsequent steps. Normally, I would use fragments to incrementally display items, but it's not working in a code block.
So I have something like this:
<pre><code>
def python_function()
<span class="fragment">display this first</span>
<span class="fragment">now display this</span>
</code></pre>
But the <span> elements are getting syntax-highlighted instead of read as HTML fragments. It looks something like this: http://imgur.com/nK3yNIS
FYI without the <span> elements highlight.js reads this correctly as python, but with the <span>, the language it detects is coffeescript.
Any ideas on how to have fragments inside a code block (or another way to simulate this) would be greatly appreciated.
To make fragments work in code snippets, you can now use the attribute data-noescape with the <code> tag
Source: Reveal.js docs
I got this to work. I had to change the init for the highlight.js dependency:
{ src: 'plugin/highlight/highlight.js', async: true, callback: function() {
[].forEach.call( document.querySelectorAll( '.highlight' ), function( v, i) {
hljs.highlightBlock(v);
});
} },
Then I authored the section this way:
<section>
<h2>Demo</h2>
<pre class="stretch highlight cpp">
#pragma once
void step_one_setup(ofApp* app)
{
auto orbit_points = app-><span class="fragment zoom-in highlight-current-green">orbitPointsFromTimeInPeriod</span>(
app-><span class="fragment zoom-in highlight-current-green">timeInPeriodFromMilliseconds</span>(
app->updates.
<span class="fragment zoom-in highlight-current-green" data->milliseconds</span>()));
}
</pre>
</section>
Results:
I would try to use multiple <pre class="fragment">and change manually .reveal pre to margin: 0 auto; and box-shadow: none; so they will look like one block of code.
OR
Have you tried <code class="fragment">? If you use negative vertical margin to remove space between individual fragments and add the same background to <pre> as <code> has then you get what you want.

jquery tooltip prevents another script from working

Problem: When I activate jQueryUI tooltip it prevents another script on the page from working.
Description: I have a floating button on a page:
<div id="buttonTOC">
Table Of Contents
</div><!-- End button <div> -->
This is used by the following script to open a hidden div:
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
$("div#buttonTOC").click(function() {
$("div#table-of-contents").animate({height:'toggle'},500);
});
});
This works correctly but if I add a script to use tooltips then it stops functioning and nothing happens on click. The tooltip does work as expected.
I've tried some experiments to get this working including the following attempt to disable 'tooltip' on the div in question but this doesn't make any difference.
jQuery(function($) {
$( 'a#buttonText' ).tooltip({
track: true
});
$('#buttonTOC *[title]').tooltip('disable');
});
I would suspect a conflict between the scripts but then again I assume that something like a tooltip would be able to work regardless of the presence of other scripts.
I'd appreciate any guidance on how to implement this successfully.
Thanks
Your code has a typo:
$( 'p#buttonText' ).tooltip({
track: true
});
It should be a#buttonText, not p
Aside from that, there seems to be no problem with the script.

changePage "jumps" back to old page

I've a big problem with a jQuery Mobile Application:
I'm using custom functions (they are triggered by onClick) to switch the page with currentPage.
It only happens on Android-Devices on sites in which has changed (due to ajax requests) with the integrated browser. iOS and Chrome works nice.
After clicking on an element, the animation started but just before it ends, it switches back to the old page. After a half second, it switches back to the new.
I made a movie of the bug here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXxvVUxniNg
Thank you very much
Code (CoffeeScript):
class Guide
#categoriesLoaded = false
#loadSearch: ->
$.mobile.changePage $("#guide"),
transition: 'slide'
changeHash: false
if !#categoriesLoaded
#categoriesLoaded = true
GuideApi.getCategories (data) ->
output = Mustache.render $("#tmpl-guide-categories-select").html(),
categories: data
$("#guide-search-category").append output
$("#guide-search-category").val($("#guide-search-category option:first").val());
window.WgSwitchGuide = ->
Guide.loadSearch
I was having the same issue. And I tried everything, I finally end with the solution. What I found was the error was principally within the browser. So I set the configuration of the pushStateEnabled as false. I did it by doing the following, adding this script.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).bind("mobileinit", function(){
$.mobile.pushStateEnabled = false;
});
</script>
It should be add before the jquery-mobile script is call, for more information you could see it on JQuery description
And it solved the problem no more jumping back.
I was having the exact same issue on both android and ios. For me, it was happening for heavy pages, i.e., pages with complex elements etc. Looks like you are using "slide" transition, which was what I was using as well. Taking out the page transitions (i.e., $.mobile.changePage("page.html", { transition: "none" })) for those pages resolved this issue for me. Hope this helps.
If you want to retain the transition, you can try preloading the page first when the previous page is being shown, by using the $.mobile.loadPage, and then show the transition. I am myself exploring this route, but it is probably worth trying.
Edit: OK - I explored the last suggestion and this doesn't seem to be working. Will stick with the first option.
Would you try to add the event stopPropagation and preventDefault methods on the first page's click event? This way the default action of the click event will not be triggered. Moreover the stopPropagation prevents the event from bubbling up the DOM tree, preventing any parent handlers from being notified of the event.
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
Example:
$("p").click(function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
// change page
});
After trying for weeks to find a solution to this, I ended up doctoring the JQM library to disable page transitions one right after another. It's not a good solution, but it's the only thing I could get to work.
I was getting pages jumping back on both $.mobile.changePage and on anchor links. I used the slide transition, but removing it did not fix the problem. Setting pushStateEnabled to false did not work either. The jumps were happening on all devices and browsers (that I tested, anyway).
So here's what I did to the JQM library (v1.3.2).
Before the $.mobile.changePage function is defined, I added:
var justChangedPage = false;
Then within the function there's a line that goes:
if ( pbcEvent.isDefaultPrevented()) {
return;
}
which I changed to:
if ( pbcEvent.isDefaultPrevented() || justChangedPage) {
return;
}
Then right after this part of the $.mobile.changePage function:
if ( toPage[ 0 ] === $.mobile.firstPage[ 0 ] && !settings.dataUrl ) {
settings.dataUrl = documentUrl.hrefNoHash;
}
I added:
justChangedPage = true;
setTimeout(function() {
justChangedPage = false;
}, 500);
(Putting that earlier in the function didn't work -- all that stuff executes more than once within a single page transition. And half a second seemed to be the minimum timeout that prevented the page jumps.)
I hope this helps someone even if it is a hack...
What is your JQM and Android version?
I'm not sure If I understand correctly. I think transition flicker maybe come from the following assumption.
Heavy page DOM transition.
Using "translate3d" somewhere in css file.
Not using "H/W Acceleration" feature. Enable by add this line to your AndroidManifest.xml in <application>
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"
I encountered exactly the same behaviour and it seems that few people are having the same issue. At first I thought it is caused by jQuery mobile library. Later on, I manage to find where the problem came from and it is a bug in my own code.
I made a demo to explain the issue.

Hopefully, this can be hint for people having the same problem.

How do you remove a button's active state with jQuery Mobile?

In my mobile app, using jQuery Mobile...
I would like to make a simple button execute a simple javascript function on click. No page transitions, nothing special like that.
I understood I can eliminate the page transitions by doing return false or preventDefault()
But the problem is the button sticks with the "active" state, i.e. highlighted blue if you use the general theme. I'm wondering how I can remove that after click (or tap, etc).
Thanks.
You can disable the 'highlighted blue'-state in the 'mobileinit'-event before loading jQueryMobile-script:
<head>
<script>
$(document).bind('mobileinit', function () {
$.mobile.activeBtnClass = 'unused';
});
</script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0/jquery.mobile-1.1.0.min.js"></script>
</head>
Now, when you click on a link, no class will be added after the click is performed. You will still have the 'hoover' and 'down' classes.
Update:
This question and the hacks suggested are now a bit outdated. jQuery mobile handles buttons quite a bit differently than 3 years ago and also, jQuery mobile now has several different definitions of "button". If you want to do what the OP was looking for, you might now be able to avoid the issue by using this:
Step 1:
<button class="ui-btn myButton">Button</button>
Alternatively, you could also use jQuery mobile input buttons:
<form>
<input value="Button One" type="button" class="myButton">
<input value="Button Two" type="button" class="myButton2">
</form>
Step 2:
Then your standard jquery on callback:
$(".myButton").on("tap", function(e) {
// do your thing
});
If you are using a button or a tab, or whatever, that has the "active" class applied to it (the default is ui-btn-active), the old answer may still be useful to someone. Also, here is a fiddle demonstrating the code below.
Selectively removing active state:
As demonstrated in another answer, you can disable the active state for all buttons on all pages. If that is acceptable for the project in question, that is the appropriate (and simpler) solution. However, if you want to disable the active state for some buttons while preserving active states for others, you can use this method.
Step 1:
$(document).bind('mobileinit', function() {
$(document).on('tap', function(e) {
$('.activeOnce').removeClass($.mobile.activeBtnClass);
});
});
Step 2:
Then add the activeOnce class (or whatever you want to call it - it's a custom class) to the buttons that you don't want to highlight when clicking.
And as is usual when binding anything to mobileinit, be sure you place your bindings - and perhaps better, all your javascript code - below the jQuery script and above the jQuery-mobile script.
<script src="js/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="js/my_script.js"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.mobile.js"></script>
Do NOT set the activeBtnClass to '' as suggested, this will cause errors when closing dialogs and the pageLoading function.
The method described does work, but cannot be set to null, the activeBtnClass variable is used as a selector, so set it to a non-existent class to get the same effect without the error.
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).bind('mobileinit', function () {
$.mobile.activeBtnClass = 'aBtnSelector';
});
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0/jquery.mobile-1.1.0.min.js"></script>
</head>
This works well to remove the highlight from the buttons while keeping the active state on other elements.
you can just do it via css instead of java:
eg: (you get the idea)
#cart #item_options .ui-btn-active, #cart #item_options .ui-btn-hover-d, #cart #item_options .ui-btn-up-d, #cart #item_options .ui-link-inherit{
background:inherit;
color:inherit;
text-shadow:inherit;
}
What I do is force the buttons to revert to inactive state before a page changes.
//force menu buttons to revert to inactive state
$( '.menu-btn' ).on('touchend', function() {
$(this).removeClass("ui-btn-active");
});
If you want to support non touch devices you should add timeout.
$('.btn' ).on('touchend click', function() {
var self = this;
setTimeout(function() {
$(self).removeClass("ui-btn-active");
},
0);
});
I have spent the good part of a day and night finding the answer to this problem mainly occurring on an android running phonegap. Instead of the standard JQM buttons I am using custom images with :active state in CSS. After following the link to the next page, then clicking back, the button would just stay in the :active state. I have tried adding classes and removing classes and various other suggestions and nothing has worked.
So I came up with my own little fix which works a treat and may help anyone else that is sitting here stumped. I simply call this snippet of code on 'pagecontainerchange' using data.toPage[0].id to only call it on the page where the active state stuck is occurring. Just make sure to wrap your buttons in a div, in my case called "themenu".
function ResetMenu() {
var menuHtml = $("#themenu").html();
$("#themenu").empty().html(menuHtml).trigger("create");
}
This works for a button in the JqueryMobile headerTab
<style>
.Foo {
color: #FFF !important;
background: #347b68 !important;
}
</style>
<div id="headerTab" data-id="headerTab" data-role="navbar">
<ul id="header_tabs">
<li>name
</li>
</ul>
</div>

Jquery UI panel resizing on click

I am using Jquery Ui panels.([http://code.google.com/p/ist-ui-panel/][1])
While loading the application, everything is fine like collasible, draggable etc.
But i want to make the panel collapsible while clicking on some links.fo ex:
This code will run when the form is loading....
$('#myNews').panel({
'collapsible' :true,
'stackable':false,
});
The html
<div class="panel" id="myNews" >
<h3>Poll</h3>
<div>Some content</div>
</div>
I want to make 'collapsible' :false when clicking some link.... like this
$('#click1').click(function() {
$('#myNews').panel({
'collapseType':'slide-right',
'collapsible':false,
});
});
the code is running without any error, but the '#myNews' not getting affected when clicking the '#click1' link.
Need some help pls.
Thanks in advance
I'm the one behind ist-ui-panel, and Jesse was right — by now the only way for you is to use 'destroy' method somewhat like:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#click1').bind({
'click': function() {
$('#myNews').panel('destroy');
$('#myNews').panel({
'collapsible' :true,
'collapseType':'slide-right',
'stackable':true
});
}
});
$('#click2').bind({
'click': function() {
$('#myNews').panel('destroy');
$('#myNews').panel({'collapsible': false});
}
});
});
Notice, you should explicitly destroy previous panel before making a new one.
If you read the uncompressed source code for that widget, it appears that what you are doing is only meant to be used to create panels, not to modify them afterward.
The underlying software is either buggy or I don't understand it. So you'll have to hunt down some bugs, but you can use the 'destroy' method on that widget to reset the div completely, and then make it a panel again, like so:
$('#myNews').panel("destroy");
$('#myNews').panel(...
As I said, it's buggy or I don't quite get it - there's an error raised by the destroy call which you have to catch, and subsequent calls to make new panels do make panels, but they aren't completely correct.
