im not a coder by any description so please excuse my lack of knowledge.
Im trying to make a basic web page with a floating chatbox style whereby when you click an icon, ( the icon represents words ) the text is filtered into the chatbox.
Im trying to make a communication page for my autistic nephew and he uses something called the PECS system and its a series of pictographical cards on a velcro board which he uses for sentence construction, its pretty basic and only works when he's got the kit with him.
MY aim is to make a web app of some kind ( but just starting with a simple web page to test it on him and see if he's interested in it ) so that anyone can access it on a tablet or phone and talk to him, or indeed he can talk to his friends at school.
there are already some platforms out there and apps, but they just don't quite hit the spot, plus they are expensive to run being subscription models.
my code is this below

pictographs.forEach(pictograph => {
pictograph.addEventListener("click", (event) => {
// filename without extention to the message, causes text overfill othewise
const fileName = event
</script>
</body>
</html>
my problem is i can't get the text from the image click into the chatbox.. nor can i seem to make it 'float' and im pretty much at the end of my knowledge and don't know where to go next. the box is on the right but its not filling with any image names..
the idea is each image he click populates the chat box.. it works in a basic format where it puts the raw text at the bottom, but when i added the chat box function it all stops :(
Many thanks
So this was where i started from once i had the images "clickable" so i went to try and include the chat box feature but this is where im stuck

I have a multi-stage dropdown component that works, but unfortunately is applied to all divs that share the same className. I.e: all items drop down when one is clicked - when I obviously just want the one clicked.
Ive tried other solutions that involve mapping, using (this) and also selecting the div by id via document query then iteration with for loops but nothing has worked. Mainly because even if I can isolate the div (say with useRef e.g.), trigging the function inherently involves applying the style change to all divs with the same classname. With this in mind, I'm pretty sure I need to change the initial css hook. Alternative is obviously to give each dropdown item its own css class which I feel would be too repetitive to even try.
Here is my code (for berevity Ive just included the dropdown and not scroll up, also just one of the items - html is identical for the other 7 items:
const [content, Toggle] = useState(styles.CT007Content)
const [TrackList, Drop] = useState(styles.songContainer)
const [artwork, Slide] = useState(styles.artworkContainer)
const [title, Darkmode] = useState(styles.releaseTitle)
const [arrow, Unlock] = useState(styles.arrow)
const open = () => {
if (arrow==styles.arrow){
Unlock(styles.arrowChecked);}
if (title==styles.releaseTitle){
Darkmode(styles.releaseTitleClicked)};
if (TrackList==styles.songContainer){
Drop(styles.songContainerOpen)};
if (content==styles.CT007Content){
Toggle(styles.CT007ContentOpen)};
if (artwork==styles.artworkContainer){
Slide(styles.artworkContainerOpen)};
html
{/* item 1 of 10 */}
<div className={styles.Release} id="CT007">
<div className={styles.releasesHeader} id="CT007">Releases (2014-2018, 2022)</div>
<div className={title} onClick={open} id="CT007">CT007
<div className={arrow} id="CT007">></div>

<div className={styles.trackContainer} onClick={changeStyle} id="CT007">
<audio controls className={audiostyle} src="/TEX86.mp3" id="CT007">
{/* <source src="/TEX86.mp3" type = "audio/mpeg"/> */}
</audio>
<div className={styles.trackText} id="CT007">
<h4>You'll Never Get Rich</h4>

To iterate, the functionality works fine, I just dont want it applied to all divs when only one is clicked. Many thanks in advance. Im sure it is something obvious but I am new to react, any help would be appreciated
documentQuery Selector, wrapping hook in a function for each div OnClick, mapping/for looping
I'm using the featherlightGallery add on for featherlight.js.
It works OK except when I click on the 1st image in a set, the image opens but not as a "gallery". In other words, there is no "next" navigation button.
If I click the 2nd (or later) image, the gallery opens and I can click next and forward as expected.

When a thumbnail is clicked (bound to class tiLink) , this function is run:
// obj is the object (image thumbnail) that as clicked
function tiLink(obj){
var ilink=$(obj).data("imglink");
if( !ilink ){return;}
// var viewLink="../data/towerFiles/"+ilink;
var gal=$(obj).find("img").attr("title");
// single view
//$.featherlight(viewLink);
// gallery view
$("."+gal).featherlightGallery({
previousIcon: '◀', /* Code that is used as previous icon */
nextIcon: '▶', /* Code that is used as next icon */
galleryFadeIn: 100, /* fadeIn speed when slide is loaded */
galleryFadeOut: 300 /* fadeOut speed before slide is loaded */
});
}
One other note: the image data is loaded and created dynamically.
Why doesn't the 1st image have prev/next navigation if it is chosen first?
EDIT: the "non-gallery" problem happens with whatever picture I click first in the set.
EDIT #2:
JSFiddle demonstrating the problem
Looks like you're over complicating things. You have a single gallery, just bind it once. Call something like this once:
$('.tiLink').featherlightGallery({targetAttr: 'data-imglink', ...})
If you have multiple independent galleries, bind them individually, probably something like:
$('.gallery').each(function() { $(this).find('.item').featherlightGallery(...) })
I am trying to use owl-carousel with Telescope but i am not able to make it to work. I have no dynamic data at this point. Below are the steps I followed.
Create a Telescope package.
Added Theme Zeiss.
Add the owl-carousel package
Then on the user Profile, where the telescope app shows the list of Posts the user has liked in a tabular format, i want to display it as a carousel with the images. (Please note this is the end goal, for now i am just trying to get the basic owl-carousel functionality work)
Below are the steps i took.
On the User_profile template i added a new template carousel
<template name="carousel">
<div class="user-profile-votes grid grid-module">
<div id="owl-carousel">
<div class="item"><h1>1</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>2</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>3</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>4</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>5</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>6</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>7</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>8</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>9</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>10</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>11</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>12</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>13</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>14</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>15</h1></div>
<div class="item"><h1>16</h1></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="customNavigation">
<a class="btn prev">Previous</a>
<a class="btn next">Next</a>
</div>
</template>
After that is done, i added the js file supporting the template as below.
Template.carousel.rendered = function() {
Meteor.setTimeout(function() {
var owl = $('#owl-carousel');
owl.owlCarousel({
navigation : true,
loop: true,
autoplay: 1000,
items : 10, //10 items above 1000px browser width
itemsDesktop : [1000,5], //5 items between 1000px and 901px
itemsDesktopSmall : [900,3], // betweem 900px and 601px
itemsTablet: [600,2], //2 items between 600 and 0
itemsMobile : false, // itemsMobile disabled - inherit from itemsTablet option
mouseDrag: true,
touchDrag: true,
afterInit : function(elem){
var that = this
that.owlControls.prependTo(elem)
}
});
}, 0)
}
With this the carousel works, shows me 10 different elements, as you can see in the below video. Even the Autoplay works, the however the buttons or dots don't. I tried zillions of things and referred many articles changed timeout, added autorun, etc. However, this is a static list.
Not sure why it's not working, any help will be great.

This owl-carousel package is using Owl Carousel 2
The link in the atmospherejs.com is wrong , that is old version. The Options & Events are different from this version.
I have been trying to do this for a while with CSS and also data attributes but it is driving me up the wall. It's easy to remove data-iconshadow from buttons, but from collapsibles, not so.
In the Developer Console I can see JQM is applying "data-iconshadow='true'" even after I told it not to using this code (in several places):
<div data-role="collapsible-set" data-iconshadow="false">
<div data-role="collapsible" data-theme="f" data-collapsed-icon="baby" class="ui-icon-nodisc" data-iconshadow="false" data-expanded-icon="arrow-u">
<h2 data-iconshadow="false">0-12 Months</h2>
**insert content here**
</div>
</div>
Yet it still generates this code:
<span class="ui-btn-inner"><span class="ui-btn-text">0-12 Months<span class="ui-collapsible-heading-status"> click to collapse contents</span></span><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-shadow ui-icon-arrow-u"> </span></span>
Yeah it is still writing the data-iconshadow to be true. And I'm not even sure how to target injected attributes with CSS so I am not having much luck with that either. If someone could shed some light on the subject, I would be most grateful.
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/Gajotres/2NCjb/
HTML:
<div data-role="collapsible-set">
<div data-role="collapsible" data-theme="f" data-collapsed-icon="baby" class="ui-icon-nodisc" data-iconshadow="false" data-expanded-icon="arrow-u" id="custom-collapsible">
<h2 data-iconshadow="false">0-12 Months</h2>
**insert content here**
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#custom-collapsible h2 .ui-btn:after {
background: transparent !important;
}
Hello MarionetteJS Gurus,
I have what is probably a very simple problem, but I can't wrap my head around how to solve it. I have an application with 2 regions and 1 layout, and I'm utilizing the Ratchet CSS library for prototyping. Functionally, the goal is simple: display a list of contacts in one view, with a header and search bar. If the user selects a contact, remove the search bar and retain only the header.
The problem appears to be the wrapping divs that are required to swap views in and out. The Ratchet CSS needs the header bars to be directly above the content section in order to properly dock them at the top of the viewport, but Marionette's regions and layouts (at least with my configuration) are preventing this from happening. Perhaps I could better structure my views?
JSFiddle of the resulting output: http://jsfiddle.net/VB7py/3/ You'll notice that the header/search area overlaps the content area.
menuRegion contains a footer menu, and mainRegion contains a layout consisting of a header region, a search region, and a "main content" region. Below are some snippets of my code:
Regions
var App = new Marionette.Application();
App.addRegions({
headerRegion: "#header-region",
menuRegion: "#menu-region",
mainRegion: {
selector: "#main-region",
regionType: MainRegion
}
});
Layouts/Views
List.Layout = Marionette.Layout.extend({
template: "#contacts-layout",
regions: {
headerRegion: "#header-region",
searchRegion: "#secondary-header-region",
contactsRegion: "#contacts-region"
}
});
List.Search = Marionette.ItemView.extend({
tagName: "div",
template: "#contact-list-search",
className: "bar bar-standard bar-header-secondary"
});
List.Header = Marionette.ItemView.extend({
template: "#contact-list-header"
});
Templates
<!-- Application Layout -->
<script type="text/template" id="contacts-layout">
<div id="header-region" class="bar bar-standard"></div>
<div id="secondary-header-region">
</div>
<div id="contacts-region" class="content"></div>
</script>
<script type="text/template" id="contact-list-header">
<nav class="bar bar-standard"><h1 class="title">Contacts</h1></na>
</script>
<script type="text/template" id="contact-list-search">
<input type="search" placeholder="Search" />
</script>
<script type="text/template" id="menu-template">
<nav class="bar bar-tab bar-footer">
</nav>
</script>
The wrapping divs inside the regions did not seem to be a problem. However, you need to set those bar specific css classes to the regions instead of it's nested elements. Like:
<div id="header-region" class="bar bar-standard">
<div>
<nav>
<h1 class="title">All Contacts</h1>
</nav>
</div>
</div>
<div id="secondary-header-region" class="bar bar-header-secondary">
<div>
<input type="search" placeholder="Search">
</div>
</div>
See: http://jsfiddle.net/Cardiff/7Wd6W/
You could pre-set those classes on your region elements or add these specific classes on region initialization, see: https://github.com/marionettejs/backbone.marionette/blob/master/docs/marionette.region.md#instantiate-your-own-region
