I have been searching for an answer for a couple days now and had no luck.
When using AJAX to bring in multiple forms into a DIV how can I position new forms not on top of the existing form?
I have a menu that calls in new forms into a working area. The new form being called in appears on top of the existing form(s). The forms are draggable but I would prefer to have the new form position itself off of the other one(s). Is there a way to do this?
I am using jQuery to handle AJAX and effects.
EDIT & ANSWER:
I just found out what was wrong. Sorry I didn't see this before. My forms were each in their own DIVs which were getting a 0 height. This is one of those facepalm moments. :P
Thanks for your responses guys. :)
BETTER EDIT:
I used the float:left advice and added in the 0 height again. Everything works great now.
If I understand what you are trying to accomplish - you could "float" your forms within your working area and just append new ones into the working area when you need to.

I see native android has asymmetrical grid options.
But I am looking for something similar in Xamarin, forms specifically. Can't seem to find anything. Am I stuck resolving this need with a relative layout? As the grid layout does not support this from what I can tell. Any solutions people have seen out there before I spend my night on making something like this.
This can be done in Xamarin Forms using the Grid layout. Set up your grid to have as many rows and columns as you would like and then add the Grid.RowSpan and Grid.ColumnSpan properties on the child views.
You will achieve the same effect.

I am starting on a new website project using AngularJS 2.0.
However, I have a particular idea which I have no idea how to work out.
The website would work as follows: (I have put a link down here with multiple images that I hope can illustrate my idea).
Homepage with 20 rectangles, all having a different background color and some text and maybe a picture inside of it.
When clicking on one of the rectangles, the background of that tile will animate to a new page. The color of the header of that "new" page would be the color of the background of the tile. I think this should be done using the routing module right?

How can I achieve this? Should I be using like 20 different components on the home screen which I somehow animate to a new page using routing or should I do something else?
I am kinda new to AngularJS but I'd love to learn more, would be great if anyone could help me out with this.
Thanks in advance
So i am trying to create a stage where i can have multiple items on it that are draggable.. but when the stage is clicked and dragged all the elements move with it.
So far I can only get one or the other to work by adding the 'draggable' property to either.
Has anyone got a solution for how to get this working?
Here is the JSfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/KHVhU/
I have considered the possibility that I might need to make the containing div draggable using jquery-ui instead of trying to do the whole thing inside the canvas, but ideally wouldnt want to take this route
the correct kineticJs library was not included. Use the correct KineticJs below.
http://d3lp1msu2r81bx.cloudfront.net/kjs/js/lib/kinetic-v4.4.1.min.js
Now, each individual items will be draggable even with stage.
found the solution with the help of the setDraggable() function
Updated the JSFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/KHVhU/1/ :)
I'm new to webkit animations and I have been trying out to do this kind of animation
http://demo.jeffrey-way.com/tutsMobile/#site.php?siteName=psdtuts
If you click the list element you will see page sliding in and sliding out.
I want to implement this animation to my app which is built with backbone.js, underscore.js, zepto.js
I could use jqTouch or jquery mobile but I would like to make it as light weight as possible, because I'm building it only for IOS. So thats way I wan't to implement it by my self.
Any hints to make this implementation or should I go with jqTouch?
In this example, there is some sort of (I hate to be vague...) ajax based content loading system. Take a look at the source:
<div data-role="page" id="article.php?siteName=psdtuts&origLink=http%3A%2F%2Fpsd.tutsplus.com%2F%3Fp%3D15026" class="ui-page ui-body-c">
When you first visit, that div doesn't exist. It's created by javascript when content is required, then filled with that content, then translated (animated) into the viewport.
Here is a step by step, deduced from a quick look at the page:
Base page is loaded, including css, javascript, nav list
Script is waiting for a nav item to be clicked.
Upon clicking, an ajax request is made to the content corresponding to the clicked item; determined by href="article.php?siteName=psdtuts&origLink=http://psd.tutsplus.com/?p=15081". My guess? This ajax request is getting content from the same place as psdtuts.com, likely in a database.
While that stuff is loading, javascript shows a loading animation. When loading is complete, it's hidden again.
Once the new content-filled div is created, it is given a default position with its left edge placed right outside of the right edge of the screen. Upon the event of being positioned, javascript then determines the view's dimensions and translates the div across the horizontal dimension. At the same time, the nav list is moved the same direction and distance.
When back is clicked, the view's dimensions are determined again (In case the window size changed) and the nav and content are translated to the right, hiding the content and showing the navigation again.
Repeat
I could be off from how this exact sample is being done, but... Well, this would work.
You wouldn't be that crazy to use a framework for something like this, but I can understand wanting to do a custom job. It would certainly be faster for users, but slower for you. Depending on your intent, that would be just fine.
edit: If you're only serving this to users with webkit, using a framework is even less necessary... If you're not worrying about cross browser support, there's really not a lot going on here that you couldn't accomplish easily with raw javascript.
The only reason I use jQuery for example, most of the time, is to ensure things work alright in most use cases. It just smooths so many things out... Even if 95% of the framework isn't being utilized, it's worth it when you've got a deadline.
I founded out one good example

Is there a way to keep the "Loading..." graphic from appearing when cfdiv refreshes? I'd like to prevent the flicker of loading the graphic then loading the new html.
By adding these lines at the bottom of the header, it overwrites the "Loading..." html and seems to prevent the flickering effect in both IE and FireFox:
<script language="JavaScript">
_cf_loadingtexthtml="";
</script>
While this seems to do the trick, it would be nice if there was an officially supported way to customize the loading animation on a per page or per control basis. Hopefully they add support for that in ColdFusion9.
I don't think there is currently a way to do this programmatically within the cfdiv tag. If you really want to get rid of that "Loading..." message and the image, there are a couple places you can look.
You can rename or delete the image, which is located at: CFIDE\scripts\ajax\resources\cf\images\loading.gif
That only gets rid of the animation. The "Loading..." text can be blanked out to an empty string, and is defined in: CFIDE\scripts\ajax\messages\cfmessage.js
Making these changes will obviously have an impact on tags other than cfdiv, but if you are looking to eliminate this behavior in one place, I'm sure you won't mind killing it everywhere else too. :)
I'd love to see a cleaner way to do this if anybody else has any ideas.
This is by no means a comprehensive or an elegant solution, but I found using negative margins on adjacent elements can "cover" the animation. I don't know if this method works in all cases, but for my particular case it worked. The animation appeared next to a binded text field, to the right of which was a submit button. The layer was floated to the right. I used negative margin on the submit button and it covered the animation without affecting the layer alignment.
Another measure I did was to check the layer structure, and added the following code to my css be sure:
#TitleNameloadingicon {visibility:hidden;}
#TitleName_cf_button {visibility:hidden;}
#TitleNameautosuggest {background-color:#ffffff;}
You can create functions to change the message prior calling the ajax load that can set the message and image to a new value.
function loadingOrder(){
_cf_loadingtexthtml="Loading Order Form <image src='/CFIDE/scripts/ajax/resources/cf/images/loading.gif'>";
}
function loadingNavigation(){
_cf_loadingtexthtml="Loading Menu <image src='/CFIDE/scripts/ajax/resources/cf/images/loading_nav.gif'>";
}
(these will eventually be rolled into a single function that will take both a text_value and an image_path parameter)
In some of my processes that load both a main and left nav cfdiv I use a function like this:
function locateCreateOrder(){
loadingOrder();
ColdFusion.navigate('/functional_areas/orders/orders_actions/cf9_act_orders_index.cfm','main_content');
loadingNavigation();
ColdFusion.navigate('/functional_areas/products/products_actions/cf9_products_menu.cfm','left_menu');
}
