I am using Jquery UI ajax tabs to display the content on my site. The tabs are working great. On each on of my Ajax tabs I have an image rotator that is not working so great.
The image rotator requires jquery to work properly. All of the jquery image rotator plugin files seem to be working fine except for this code...
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
var banner1 = $('#banner-rotator1').royalSlider({
imageAlignCenter:true,
imageScaleMode: "fill",
hideArrowOnLastSlide:true,
slideSpacing:20,
autoScaleSlider: true,
autoScaleSliderWidth: 1150,
autoScaleSliderHeight: 400
}).data("royalSlider");
var banner2 = $('#banner-rotator2').royalSlider({
imageAlignCenter:true,
imageScaleMode: "fill",
hideArrowOnLastSlide:true,
slideSpacing:20,
autoScaleSlider: true,
autoScaleSliderWidth: 1150,
autoScaleSliderHeight: 400
}).data("royalSlider");
var banner3 = $('#banner-rotator3').royalSlider({
imageAlignCenter:true,
imageScaleMode: "fill",
hideArrowOnLastSlide:true,
slideSpacing:20,
autoScaleSlider: true,
autoScaleSliderWidth: 1150,
autoScaleSliderHeight: 400
}).data("royalSlider");
var banner4 = $('#banner-rotator4').royalSlider({
imageAlignCenter:true,
imageScaleMode: "fill",
hideArrowOnLastSlide:true,
slideSpacing:20,
autoScaleSlider: true,
autoScaleSliderWidth: 1150,
autoScaleSliderHeight: 400
}).data("royalSlider");
});
I know the code works because if I cut and paste it into the ajax pages it works fine, but I can't seem to get the image rotator to work when the code is placed in the "master page". Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?
Here is a link to my page http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14080718/Ajax-Test/Ajax-stripped.html
It's because this code is run when the DOM is ready, that is, the master page DOM is ready. You later load your ajax content and the javascript code has already run prior to the ajax content loading. What you can do is place that code in a function. Then in your ajax loaded content run that function on document.ready
E.g
In your masterpage
function code_to_run(){
// your code here
}
In your ajax loaded content
$(function(){
code_to_run() // call the function in your masterpage
});
The interaction of Master Pages and Content Pages is complex and may be understood better by looking at http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36107/Master-Page-and-Content-Page-Interaction.
Therein you find a paragraph describing how to reference Content Pages from the Master Page.
I hope this helps

My app runs inside an iframe in a wrapper page. When the wrapper page loads, the source for the iframe is set like this
<script type="text/javascript">
var frameSrc = 'myApp.jsp';
$(document).ready(function() {
loadFrame(frameSrc);
$("#iFrm").height($(window).height() - 175);
$(window).bind('resize', function(){
$("#iFrm").height($(window).height() - 175);
return false;
});
$("#adminLink").click(function(){
frameSrc = 'myAdmin.jsp';
loadFrame(frameSrc);
});
return false;
});
function loadFrame(src){
$("#iFrm").attr('src', src);
}
</script>
And this loads and runs just fine, but then I've got the admin link on the page that is intended to load a different page into the iframe and it has an event handler inside the document.ready function.
The issue that I'm encountering is that the myAdmin.jsp is loading and then the original document.ready script, in the wrapper page, is running again - completely with the original frameSrc value. It seems as though by changing the iframe source, it's triggering a reload of the entire wrapper page and the original iframe source. Has anyone seen this? Am I missing something obvious?
I got an answer to this question while working through various possible solutions. The problem turned out to have to do with adminLink. The href value was empty, which appears to have directed the browser to reload the current page (the wrapper). When I put javascript: return false; in the href my issue resolved.
<a id="adminLink" href="">Administration</a>
vs
<a id="adminLink" href="javascript:return false;">Administration</a>
I have been trying for two days to get ColorBox to return post results back to the same open box but it just will not do it.
I am using Jquery Form Plugin to Post from a ColorBox. It seems to work in IE 8, but not Safari or FireFox.
In IE 8 it returns the result from the post page "action" and returns the result in the same ColorBox but in FF and Safari it closes the box and sits on the load page (i.e. process1.php)?
I have a page say "process1.php" which loads the ColorBox onLoad (it does this no problem)
Load Page ColorBox Code For process1.php:
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
$j(document).ready(function() {
$j.fn.colorbox({
href:"process2.php",
escKey: false,
overlayClose: false,
width: "60%",
height: 350,
title: "Process Secure Order",
open:true
});
});
Upon Page Load it will load the "process2.php" displaying a form for the user to submit data.
This is my JQuery Form Plugin Code:
var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
$j(document).ready(function() {
var options = {
beforeSubmit: showSpinner,
success: showResponse,
//resetForm: true,
timeout: 3000,
target: '#output1'
};
function showSpinner() {
$j('#sterms, #accept, #decline, #side-cart').hide();
$j('#working').show().html('Please Wait');
return true;
};
function showResponse(){
$j('#working').hide();
$j('#result').show();
return true;
};
// bind form using 'ajaxForm'
$j('#secure_process01').ajaxForm(options);
});
It posts fine and then just tries to reload the same page with out the ColorBox opening on Load.
It has me stumped why it works in IE and nothing else, any help would be appreciated.
Using JQuery 1.5.2 (JQuery Form Plug In is not working with anything higher has permission issues)
Reference For JQuery Form Plugin http://jquery.malsup.com/form/#ajaxForm
This issue has been solved.
It turned out that the Jquery Form Plugin did not like the 1.6.1 JQuery version so I did the code using Jquery Post and it worked in all browsers.
ColorBox plugin big rap, great and easy.
So i I have a page that contains links that call an httpRequest. The request calls a php file that grabs data from mysql and pre populates a form which is then returned to the browser/webpage. My problem is that when the page is returned to the browser via the httpRequest/ajax the text area does not display the tinymce editor, it just displays a normal text area. It looks like my request and ajax is working fine the text area just doesn't have the tinycme editor on it.
When i don't use ajax it works fine but when i put it in a separate file and call it via ajax it doesn't bring in the tinymce editor.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem so that my ajax generated page displays the text area with the tinymce editor. Thank you.
Lets presume that your thinyMCE instance is initialized with code below
// initialize tinyMCE in page
tinyMCE.init({
mode: "textareas",
theme: "advanced"
});
and you have some kind of button somewhere in the page. For purpose of this tip, i will not give it any ID but you may. Now, using jQuery you can easily attach event handler to that button which will call through AJAX your server and take content which you want to put tinyMCE editor. Code which will do such job would look somehow like below.
$(function() {
$("button").bind("click", function() {
var ed = tinyMCE.get('content');
ed.setProgressState(1); // Show progress
$.getJSON('/page/12.json', { /* your data */
}, function(data) {
ed.setProgressState(0); // Hide progress
ed.setContent(data["body"]);
}
});
});
});
You can see that on button.click ajax will call url /page/12.json which will return JSON as response. bare minimum of that response could be:
{
title: "Page title",
body: "<html><head><title>Page title</title>......</html>"
}
I attached anonymous function as callback which will handle response from server. and hide progress indicator which is shown before ajax call.
About JSON
JSON is shorten of JavaScript Object Notation. It is JavaScript code!!! So don't be confused about it. Using JSON you can make javascript object which can have attributes you can use later in your code to access particular peace of data which that object "holds". You can look at it as some kind of data structure if it is easier to you.
Anyway, to show you how this JSON can be created by hand look at examples below
var data = new Object();
data.title = "Page title";
data.body = "<html....";
or
var data = {
title: "page title",
body: "<html...."
};
it is very same thing.
If you want to learn more about JSON point your browser to http://json.org.
===== alternative =====
Alternative to json solution could be just plane ajax call to server and response can be plain HTML (from your question I can assume that you have something like this already). So instad of calling $.getJSON you can use $.get(url, callback); to do same thing. The code at the top of my answer will not dramatically change. Instead of geting JSON in response you will get string which is HTML.
----------- BOTTOM LINE -------
I prefer JSON since it can be easily extended later with other attributes, so there is no painful code changes later ;)
Problem here will be that when you return the full page and render it using the ajax response, your tinymce instance has not been shut down before.
In order to do this you can call this small piece of code before you render the ajax response:
tinymce.execCommand('mceRemoveControl',true,'editor_id');
In this case the editor should initialize correctly. You are not allowed to initialize a tinymce editor with the same id before shutting the first one down.
Strangely i ran into this problem yesterday. Following code should work, but YMMV. Trick is to use the correct steps in ajax events. I used the Regular TinyMCE and made use of the jQuery library already included.
Following goes into your tinyMCE initialization tinyMCE.init() . All of the below block should be outside the document.ready.
myTinyInit = {
//.......All essential keys/values ...........
setup : function(ed) {
ed.onChange.add(function( ed ) {
tinyMCE.triggerSave();
}) }
//.....................
};
// Init the tinyMCE
tinyMCE.init(myTinyInit);
This ensures the content is being saved regularly onto the textarea that holds the value. Next step is setting up the request events.
Normally tinyMCE mceAddControl before the ajax post and mceRemoveControl after the ajax success should do the trick. But I found that often does not work.
I used the form as the jQuery selector in my case.
jQuery( '.myForm' )
.find( 'textarea#myTextArea' )
.ajaxStart(function() {
// If you need to copy over the values, you can do it here.
// If you are using jQuery form plugin you can bind to form-pre-serialize event instead.
// jQuery( this ).val( tinyMCE.get( jQuery( this ).attr( 'id' )).getContent() );
}).ajaxSend( function() {
// ! - step 2
// My case was multiple editors.
myEds = tinyMCE.editors;
for( edd in myEds ) {
myEds[ eds ].remove();
}
// tinyMCE.get( 'myTextarea' ).remove();
// strangely mceRemoveControl didnt work for me.
// tinyMCE.execCommand( 'mceRemoveControl', false, jQuery( this ).attr('id'));
}).ajaxSuccess(function() {
// Now we got the form again, Let's put up tinyMCE again.
txtID = jQuery( this ).attr( 'id' );
// ! - step 3
tinyMCE.execCommand( 'mceAddControl', false, txtID );
// Restore the contents into TinyMCE.
tinyMCE.get( txtID ).setContent( jQuery( this ).val());
});
Problems i came across :
Using mceRemoveControl always gave me r is undefined error persistently.
If you get a blank tinyMCE editor, check the DOM whether the ID of the textarea is replaced with something like mce_02, this means that TinyMCE is being initialized again or something is wrong with the order. If so, the tinyMCE is duplicated with each save.
if you are new to JS, I recommend using jQuery with the form plugin, it might be easier for you. But do use the regular non-jquery tinyMCE, as it is well documented.
I fixed this problem by recalling the function after the ajax call. In this part of my ajax:
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
{
document.getElementById("Content").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
tinymce();
Now it works fine.
I have this issue. I'm working on a jquery ajaxed site. I have the main content div in the middle and on top the navigation. I need to AJAX the content, because I have flash backgound so that the flash video won't start from beginning after every page load. The only way I was able to do this was with this sort of code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$.ajaxSetup ({
cache: false
});
//For loading
var ajax_load = "<img src='img/load.gif' alt='loading...' /><p>";
// Var
var loadPage1 = "page1.html";
// Load page
$("#page1").click(function(){
$("#content").hide(2000);
$("#content").html(ajax_load).load(loadPage1);
$("#content").show(2000);
});
All other ways to get the div didn't work because there was issues on getting plugins etc. working in the ajaxed div (content).
So... everythig is working fine - but, the div loads it's content from page1.html and shows it and only after this does it hide it and show it. So it loads the page and then does the effects I want to.
Do I need to queue this some how or what's the proper jquery way? I tried delay, stop etc.. but can't seem to solve this out. It's propably very simple.
Thanks.
Show the element in the load callback handler.
i.e:
$("#page1").click(function(){
$("#content").hide();
$("#content").html(ajax_load).load(loadPage1, function(){
$("#content").show(2000)
});
});
.load() takes 2 arguments, the URI and a callback to fire after load.
API is found here: http://api.jquery.com/load/
function() {
$("#content").hide(2000);
$("#content").html(ajax_load).load(loadPage1, function() {
$("#content").show(2000);
});
}
I'm using some jQuery tabs that load their content via ajax. I'm using $(document).ready() in conjunction with the following code:
// Hide loading animation, show content container
$("#content").show();
$("#loading").hide();
The purpose is to wait until the page is fully loaded, then show the content and hide the loading animation.
However, $(document).ready() only waits for the main page to load, not the external ajax content.
Is there something I can do wait until the ajax is loaded too?
Thanks in advance.
Depending on your ajax library, there is usually an option for supplying a callback which is called when the underlying ajax (get post..) operation is complete. You could use that callback to do your initialization rather than within .ready()....
First, if you wish to show animation while you're loading, use ajaxStart and ajaxStop. It does it auto-painlessly. Here's an example:
// Note! This uses jquery-ui to do the dialog...
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
var body = jQuery("body");
body.append('<div id="ajaxBusy"><div style="text-align:center" ><p>Communicating with server...<br \/>Please wait for this operation to finish.<br \/><img src="\/js\/jquery.smallhbar.indicator.gif" \/><\/p><\/div><\/div>');
jQuery('#ajaxBusy').css({
display:"none",
margin:"0px",
width:"260px",
height:"170px",
padding:"5px",
textAlign:'center'
});
jQuery("#ajaxBusy").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
bgiframe: true,
closeOnEscape: false,
//modal: true,
title: 'Shipping Department'});
jQuery(document).ajaxStart(function() {
jQuery('#ajaxBusy').dialog('open');
});
jQuery(document).ajaxStop(function() {
jQuery('#ajaxBusy').dialog('close');
});
});
With this code in my jQuery.ready section, a pretty dialog automatically flashes when ajax operations are occurring.
Finally, if you need to show content afterwards, you need to put your show() method within the success function of your ajax call. If you have multiple ajax calls happening, you'll need to use some variables as flags to signal when everything is done (clunky).
Do you have one or more than one ajax call happening?
