I am using the following code to change href links in a page to a new link by using their id.
This is what I'm using to find the href and add the id to it;
$( document ).ready(function() {
$('a[href$="/truck-bed-covers/camper-tops"]').attr('id', 'camper1');
});
And this is what I'm using to change the link.
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#camper1").attr("href", "../camper-tops");
});
It works great. Except it doesn't continue on the rest of the page. It only changes one link and then it's done. How do I continue until there is no more links to change?
ID has to be unique, else JavaScript works with the first one only.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('a[href$="/truck-bed-covers/camper-tops"]').each(function(){
$(this).attr("href", "../camper-tops");
});
});
But I don't think this is the right way. You should find place where you create incorrect links and repair it there (in PHP/DB or where links came from).
At a guess, you're adding the ID so you can refer to the element in the second line, but you don't need to. Once you have an element you can work on it.
You can select all links with something like $('a[href]') (all links with an href attribute) and then iterate over all of them with jQuery's each function. Something like
$(function(){ // shorthand for $(document).ready()
$('a[href]').each(function(index, element){
// work on each element here
var $el = $(element);
$el.attr('href', $el.attr('href').replace(/*whatever you want to do here */);
});
});
I have following jQuery code to prevent double clicking a button. It works fine. I am using Page_ClientValidate() to ensure that the double click is prevented only if the page is valid. [If there are validation errors the flag should not be set as there is no postback to server started]
Is there a better method to prevent the second click on the button before the page loads back?
Can we set the flag isOperationInProgress = yesIndicator only if the page is causing a postback to server? Is there a suitable event for it that will be called before the user can click on the button for the second time?
Note: I am looking for a solution that won't require any new API
Note: This question is not a duplicate. Here I am trying to avoid the use of Page_ClientValidate(). Also I am looking for an event where I can move the code so that I need not use Page_ClientValidate()
Note: No ajax involved in my scenario. The ASP.Net form will be submitted to server synchronously. The button click event in javascript is only for preventing double click. The form submission is synchronous using ASP.Net.
Present Code
$(document).ready(function () {
var noIndicator = 'No';
var yesIndicator = 'Yes';
var isOperationInProgress = 'No';
$('.applicationButton').click(function (e) {
// Prevent button from double click
var isPageValid = Page_ClientValidate();
if (isPageValid) {
if (isOperationInProgress == noIndicator) {
isOperationInProgress = yesIndicator;
} else {
e.preventDefault();
}
}
});
});

Note by #Peter Ivan in the above references:
calling Page_ClientValidate() repeatedly may cause the page to be too obtrusive (multiple alerts etc.).
I found this solution that is simple and worked for me:
<form ...>
<input ...>
<button ... onclick="this.disabled=true;this.value='Submitting...'; this.form.submit();">
</form>
This solution was found in:
Original solution
JS provides an easy solution by using the event properties:
$('selector').click(function(event) {
if(!event.detail || event.detail == 1){//activate on first click only to avoid hiding again on multiple clicks
// code here. // It will execute only once on multiple clicks
}
});
disable the button on click, enable it after the operation completes
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#btn").on("click", function() {
$(this).attr("disabled", "disabled");
doWork(); //this method contains your logic
});
});
function doWork() {
alert("doing work");
//actually this function will do something and when processing is done the button is enabled by removing the 'disabled' attribute
//I use setTimeout so you can see the button can only be clicked once, and can't be clicked again while work is being done
setTimeout('$("#btn").removeAttr("disabled")', 1500);
}
working example
I modified the solution by #Kalyani and so far it's been working beautifully!
$('selector').click(function(event) {
if(!event.detail || event.detail == 1){ return true; }
else { return false; }
});
Disable pointer events in the first line of your callback, and then resume them on the last line.
element.on('click', function() {
element.css('pointer-events', 'none');
//do all of your stuff
element.css('pointer-events', 'auto');
};
After hours of searching i fixed it in this way:
old_timestamp = null;
$('#productivity_table').on('click', function(event) {
// code executed at first load
// not working if you press too many clicks, it waits 1 second
if(old_timestamp == null || old_timestamp + 1000 < event.timeStamp)
{
// write the code / slide / fade / whatever
old_timestamp = event.timeStamp;
}
});
you can use jQuery's [one][1] :
.one( events [, data ], handler ) Returns: jQuery
Description: Attach a handler to an event for the elements. The handler is executed at most once per element per event type.
see examples:
using jQuery: https://codepen.io/loicjaouen/pen/RwweLVx
// add an even listener that will run only once
$("#click_here_button").one("click", once_callback);
using count,
clickcount++;
if (clickcount == 1) {}
After coming back again clickcount set to zero.
May be this will help and give the desired functionality :
$('#disable').on('click', function(){
$('#disable').attr("disabled", true);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<button id="disable">Disable Me!</button>
<p>Hello</p>
We can use on and off click for preventing Multiple clicks. i tried it to my application and it's working as expected.
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#disable").on('click', function () {
$(this).off('click');
// enter code here
});
})
This should work for you:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.applicationButton').click(function (e) {
var btn = $(this),
isPageValid = Page_ClientValidate(); // cache state of page validation
if (!isPageValid) {
// page isn't valid, block form submission
e.preventDefault();
}
// disable the button only if the page is valid.
// when the postback returns, the button will be re-enabled by default
btn.prop('disabled', isPageValid);
return isPageValid;
});
});
Please note that you should also take steps server-side to prevent double-posts as not every visitor to your site will be polite enough to visit it with a browser (let alone a JavaScript-enabled browser).
The absolute best way I've found is to immediately disable the button when clicked:
$('#myButton').click(function() {
$('#myButton').prop('disabled', true);
});
And re-enable it when needed, for example:
validation failed
error while processing the form data by the server, then after an error response using jQuery
Another way to avoid a quick double-click is to use the native JavaScript function ondblclick, but in this case it doesn't work if the submit form works through jQuery.
One way you do this is set a counter and if number exceeds the certain number return false.
easy as this.
var mybutton_counter=0;
$("#mybutton").on('click', function(e){
if (mybutton_counter>0){return false;} //you can set the number to any
//your call
mybutton_counter++; //incremental
});
make sure, if statement is on top of your call.
If you are doing a full round-trip post-back, you can just make the button disappear. If there are validation errors, the button will be visible again upon reload of the page.
First set add a style to your button:
<h:commandButton id="SaveBtn" value="Save"
styleClass="hideOnClick"
actionListener="#{someBean.saveAction()}"/>
Then make it hide when clicked.
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".hideOnClick").click(function(e) {
$(e.toElement).hide();
});
});
Just copy paste this code in your script and edit #button1 with your button id and it will resolve your issue.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#button1").submit(function() {
$(this).submit(function() {
return false;
});
return true;
});
});
</script
Plain JavaScript:
Set an attribute to the element being interacted
Remove the attribute after a timeout
If the element has the attribute, do nothing
const throttleInput = document.querySelector('button');
throttleInput.onclick = function() {
if (!throttleInput.hasAttribute('data-prevent-double-click')) {
throttleInput.setAttribute('data-prevent-double-click', true);
throttleInput.setAttribute('disabled', true);
document.body.append("Foo!");
}
setTimeout(function() {
throttleInput.removeAttribute('disabled');
throttleInput.removeAttribute('data-prevent-double-click');
}, 3000);
}
<button>Click to add "Foo"!</button>
We also set the button to .disabled=true. I added the HTML Command input with type hidden to identify if the transaction has been added by the Computer Server to the Database.
Example HTML and PHP Commands:
<button onclick="myAddFunction(<?php echo $value['patient_id'];?>)" id="addButtonId">ADD</button>
<input type="hidden" id="hasPatientInListParam" value="<?php echo $hasPatientInListParamValue;?>">
Example Javascript Command:
function myAddFunction(patientId) {
document.getElementById("addButtonId").disabled=true;
var hasPatientInList = document.getElementById("hasPatientInListParam").value;
if (hasPatientInList) {
alert("Only one (1) patient in each List.");
return;
}
window.location.href = "webAddress/addTransaction/"+patientId; //reloads page
}
After reloading the page, the computer auto-sets the button to .disabled=false. At present, these actions prevent the multiple clicks problem in our case.
I hope these help you too.
Thank you.
One way I found that works is using bootstrap css to display a modal window with a spinner on it. This way nothing in the background can be clicked. Just need to make sure that you hide the modal window again after your long process completes.
so I found a simple solution, hope this helps.
all I had to do was create a counter = 0, and make the function that runs when clicked only runnable if the counter is = 0, when someone clicks the function the first line in the function sets counter = 1 and this will prevent the user from running the function multiple times when the function is done the last line of the code inside the function sets counter to 0 again
you could use a structure like this, it will execute just once:
document.getElementById('buttonID').addEventListener('click', () => {
...Do things...
},{once:true});
With custom jQuery Ui widget, you can attach your own callback functions to it by passing options to the plugin. However, if I want to attach one callback to "generate_img" event and later on another different but not mutually exclusive behaviour to the same widget event "generate_img", the later one will replace, instead of adding to the existing behaviour.
Is there a way to solve this problem? Thanks.
You could do something like this (using a dialog Widget and the beforeClose event as an example):
function one(){alert("one");}
function two(){alert("two");}
$( function() {
$( "#dialog" ).dialog(
{beforeClose: one}
);
var original = $( "#dialog" ).dialog("option", "beforeClose");
$( "#dialog" ).dialog("option", "beforeClose", function(){
original();
two();
});
});

As you can see I have 2 animators , a element and body class,
I am adding class to body after the first click on a element but once I click on body is not closing it. If I define animators as
var animators = $$('#opendiv,body');
it works ok except that I do not want the div to open on body click. I need it to close on body click.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!
Right. Seems as if you really require an outerClick pattern to close. Here's the one that is most notably used within mootools devs, allowing you to create a custom event, based on click:
Element.Events.outerClick = {
base : 'click',
condition : function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
return false;
},
onAdd : function(fn){
this.getDocument().addEvent('click', fn);
},
onRemove : function(fn){
this.getDocument().removeEvent('click', fn);
}
};
The way it works is: it is based on a normal click. upon adding, it adds the callback as a click event on the document. when a click happens within the element itself,it stops bubbling via event.stopPropagation();, else, it will bubble and the callback will run.
here's how it ties together after the above:
http://jsfiddle.net/dimitar/nAb6N/13/
(function() {
var opener = $('opendiv');
var boxtoopen = $('box');
boxtoopen.set('morph', {
duration: 700,
transition: 'bounce:out'
});
boxtoopen.addEvent('outerClick', function(event) {
boxtoopen.morph(".openOff");
opener.removeClass("hide");
});
opener.addEvent('click', function(e) {
e.stop();
boxtoopen.morph(".openOn");
this.addClass("hide");
});
})();
I have also 'outsourced' the morph properties to the CSS as it makes more sense, semantically.
P.S. note that you need mootools 1.4.3 or 1.4.5, but not 1.4.4 as there's a morph bug to do with units in that release. the jsfiddle above uses 1.4.6 (mootools edge).
I have an ASP.NET MVC application with pages where the content is loaded into divs from client via JavaScript/jQuery/JSON. The loaded content contains a-tags with references to a function that updates server side values, then redirects to reload of entire page even though.
I wish to replace the a-tags with 'something' to still call a server-side function, then reload the div only.
What is the 'right' way of doing this?
All comments welcome.
This is as far as I got so far. getResponseCell() returns a td-tag filled with a-tag.
I've mangled Glens suggestion into the .click() addition, but it just calls the onClickedEvent...
Code sample:
onClickedEvent=function()
{
return false;
}
getResponseCell=function(label, action, eventId)
{
tmpSubSubCell=document.createElement("td");
link = document.createElement("A");
link.appendChild( document.createTextNode( label));
link.setAttribute("href", "/EventResponse/"+ action + "/" + eventId);
//link.setAttribute("href", "#divContentsEventList");
//link.setAttribute("onclick", "onClickedEvent(); return false;");
link.setAttribute("className", "eventResponseLink");
link.click(onClickedEvent());
// link=jQuery("<A>Kommer<A/>").attr("href", "/EventResponse/"+ action + "/" + eventId).addClass("eventResponseLink");
// link.appendTo(tmpSubSubCell);
tmpSubSubCell.appendChild(link);
return tmpSubSubCell;
}
And the solution that worked for me looks like this:
onClickedEvent=function(event, actionLink)
{
event.preventDefault();
$("eventListDisplay").load(actionLink);
refreshEventList();
return false;
}
getResponseCell=function(label, action, eventId)
{
tmpSubSubCell=document.createElement("td");
link = document.createElement("A");
link.setAttribute("id",action + eventId);
link.appendChild( document.createTextNode( label));
actionLink = "/EventResponse/"+ action + "/" + eventId;
link.setAttribute("href", actionLink);
className = "eventResponseLink"+ action + eventId;
link.setAttribute("className", className);
$('a.'+className).live('click', function (event)
{
onClickedEvent(event,$(this).attr('href'));
});
tmpSubSubCell.appendChild(link);
return tmpSubSubCell;
}
Without really seeing more information.....
If you're a's are being added to the DOM after the initial page load, you cannot use the usual click() or bind() methods in jQuery; this is because these methods only bind the events to those elements that are registered in the DOM at the time the methods are called. live() on the other hand, will register the event for all current, and future elements (using the event bubbling mechanism in Javascript).
$(document).ready(function () {
$('a.eventResponseLink').live('click', function (event) {
var self = $(this);
self.closest('div').load('/callYourServerSideFunction.asp?clickedHref=' + self.attr('href'));
event.preventDefault();
});
});
We're using event.preventDefault() to prevent the default action of the a-tag being executed; e.g. reloading or changing page.
Edit: The issue won't be caused by that. That's the power of jQuery; being able to bind the same event to multiple elements. Check your HTML; maybe you're missing a closing </a> somewhere? Maybe your binding the event in a location that gets called multiple times? Each time .live() gets called, it will add ANOTHER event handler to all matched elements. It only needs to be bound once on page load.
jQuery provides loads of way for you to select the elements; check out the list. Looking at your link variable, it looks like all your links have a href starting with /EventResponse/; so you can use $('a[href^=/EventResponse/]') as the selector instead.
We need code to give you a proper answer, but the following code will catch the click of an a-tag, and reload the div that it's inside:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a").click(function() {
//call server-side function
var parentDiv = $(this).parents("div:first");
$(parentDiv).load("getContentOfThisDiv.asp?id=" + $(parentDiv).attr("id"));
});
});
In the above code, when a link is clicked, the div that this the link is inside will be loaded with the response of the call to the asp file. The id of the div is sent to the file as a parameter.
