I am with a problem. I am using jQuery.SelectBox for the select box and dropdowns.
It is working fine when the elements are loaded with the page load. But its not working when they are loaded by the ajax i.e on dynamicaly generated elements it is not working.
You can check the file here :- http://rvtechnologies.info/brad/jquery.selectBox.js
This line:
jQuery('<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo DIVATEMPLATEPATH . "/css/jquery.selectBox.css"; ?>">').appendTo("head");
Is completely invalid. You cannot combine PHP and Javascript! PHP is executed on the server, not in the browser. Please learn about the fundamentals of web development. PHP gets run on the server, it generates code that gets sent to the client, which then in turn runs the code locally on the computer (HTML and JavaScript).
CSS codes are style declaration and stylesheets, once the element gets added to the DOM they will be loaded or applied.
Check the name of id, classes and attributes of the generated elements using tools like firebug and see the generated markup.
I have sorted it out.
I need to call the selecbox again on Ajax success.
I have done like this :-
success: function(html) {
jQuery('#loader').empty();
jQuery("#right_search").append(html);
jQuery("SELECT").selectBox(); //Just Added this
initdatepicker();
stat = 0;
}

In a page I am working on I replace the HTML code in a DIV with different HTML, then using Javascript I insert additional HTML into a DIV the new code using innerHTML.
If that is confusing, the original HTML contained a form, the HTML that replaced it contains the response to the form's Submit, and the code I want to insert is the information from the form.
This seemed to work as long as I had alert code in the script, which I use to check the progress as I debug this. Once I removed the all of alert lines the insert would fail. I figure it has to do something with the asynchronous nature of page rendering, so I think I need to find a way to make sure the new HTML code has loaded before I try writing to the DIV it contains.
In the code below the script fails at show_member_info unless I uncomment the preceding alert line.
function handle_join(X)
{
do_trace('handle_update');
get_member_info();
send_emails(X);
do_trace('clear content');
document.getElementById("members_content").innerHTML='';
document.getElementById("members_image").innerHTML='';
do_trace('load content');
Load_HTML('members/joinConf.html','members_content');
// alert('show_member_info');
show_member_info();
show_trace();
}
How do I determine when the new HTML has loaded and is ready to be manipulated?
Thanks, Mike
The question is a bit dry, but from what i can understand the problem is that you are not awaiting Load_HTML and that's causing some issue with show_member_info.
I am new to Angular & Protractor (and web development for that matter), so I apologize of this is an obvious question.
I am trying to test our angular app with protractor, and it appears that I can locate the first element on the page. But cannot find any of the other elements using (id, name, model, css). I have tried chaining off of the first element, but always get the element not found error on the second element in the chain. I've have triple check the spelling so I am confident everything is correct.
Our page is setup up with multiple sections and when I "view source" I only see the root div.
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div ng-app="app" id="wrap">
<div ui-view></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
But when I inspect the elements using the developer tools (F12), they exist in the DOM, I just don't know how to get to them.
<input type="text" class="form-control ng-valid ng-dirty ng-valid-parse ng-touched" data-ng-model="vm.searchText" id="searchText" placeholder="(Account # / Name / Nickname / Phone #)">
I tried to access the control listed above using the following:
browser.element(by.id("searchText").sendKeys("test");
browser.element(by.model("vm.searchText").sendKeys("test");
element(by.id("searchText").sendKeys("test");
element(by.model("vm.searchText").sendKeys("test");
I also create a single button and used partialButtonText & buttonText, neither of which worked.
I also tried to add some async functionality with "then" but that didn't work either. How do I access these elements are are not contained in a single html file?
thanks.....
If an element is not visible, I believe protractor isnt able to interact with it. It can't click or get text or anything if it is not visible, that is actually checked before it can perform the action.
What you can do is check the element is present to ensure it is somewhere on the html.
var searchText = $('#searchText');
expect(searchText.isPresent()).toBeTruthy('Search Text element not present');
This will find an element with a css selector of id searchText, and then check if it is present(exists on the html).
If you want to interact with it, remember that protractor looks around like a human would. If a human cant click it, neither can protractor! Make sure it is on the page and visible.
Don't have the reputation points to add this in the comments to user2020347's response so...When you say not in "view source" I assume you're talking about dynamically generated content. Instead of using view source either use chrome or firefox developer tools to make sure you're using the right locators.
For example in chrome's console the following should return a result once the page is loaded:
$$('#searchText')
$$('input[data-ng-model="vm.searchText"]')
It also looks like you're sending keys to the same element.
Since you have an angular app protractor should wait for all elements to load, but just in case you might want to wait for the element to be present and/or visible on the page.
Same happened to me, because Protractor executed on the original (first) tab.
Try to switch between the tabs before accessing the elements:
browser.getAllWindowHandles().then(function (handles) {
browser.driver.switchTo().window(handles[1]);
});
I'm writing a WinJS app that takes an HTML fragment the user has copied to the clipboard, replaces their
Later, when I go to display the .html, I create an iFrame element (using jQuery $(''), and attempt to source the .html into it, and get the following error
0x800c001c - JavaScript runtime error: Unable to add dynamic content. A script attempted to inject dynamic content, or elements previously modified dynamically, that might be unsafe. For example, using the innerHTML property to add script or malformed HTML will generate this exception. Use the toStaticHTML method to filter dynamic content, or explicitly create elements and attributes with a method such as createElement. For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=247104.
I don't get the exception if I don't base64 encoded the images, i.e. leave them intact and can display iframes on the page with the page showing images.
If I take the html after subbing the urls for base64 and run it through toStaticHTML, it removes the src= attribute completely from the tags.
I know the .html with the encoded pngs is right b/c I can open it in Chrome and it displays fine.
My question is I'm trying to figure out why it strips the src= attributes from the tags and how to fix it, for instance, creating the iframe without using jquery and some MS voodoo, or a different technique to sanitize the HTML?
So, a solution I discovered (not 100% convinced it the best and am still looking for something a little less M$ specific) is the MS Webview
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/bg182879.aspx#WebView
I use some code like below (where content is the html string with base64 encoded images)
var loadHtmlSuccess = function (content) {
var webview = document.createElement("x-ms-webview");
webview.navigateToString(content);
assetItem.append(webview);
}
I believe you want to use execUnsafeLocalFunction. For example:
var target = document.getElementById('targetDIV');
MSApp.execUnsafeLocalFunction(function () {
target.innerHTML = content}
);
I've inherited some code that I need to debug. It isn't working at present. My task is to get it to work. No other requirements have been given to me. No, this isn't homework, this is a maintenance nightmare job.
ASP.Net (Framework 3.5), C#, jQuery 1.4.2. This project makes heavy use of jQuery and AJAX. There is a drop down on a page that, when an item is chosen, is supposed to add that item (it's a user) to an object in the database.
To accomplish this, the previous programmer first, on page load, dynamically loads the entire page through AJAX. To do this, he's got 5 div's, and each one is loaded from a jQuery call to a different full page in the website.
Somehow, the HTML and BODY and all the other stuff is stripped out and the contents of the div are loaded with the content of the aspx page. Which seems incredibly wrong to me since it relies on the browser to magically strip out html, head, body, form tags and merge with the existing html head body form tags.
Also, as the "content" page is returned as a string, the previous programmer has this code running on it before it is appended to the div:
function CleanupResponseText(responseText, uniqueName) {
responseText = responseText.replace("theForm.submit();", "SubmitSubForm(theForm, $(theForm).parent());");
responseText = responseText.replace(new RegExp("theForm", "g"), uniqueName);
responseText = responseText.replace(new RegExp("doPostBack", "g"), "doPostBack" + uniqueName);
return responseText;
}
When the dropdown itself fires it's onchange event, here is the code that gets fired:
function SubmitSubForm(form, container) {
//ShowLoading(container);
$(form).ajaxSubmit( {
url: $(form).attr("action"),
success: function(responseText) {
$(container).html(CleanupResponseText(responseText, form.id));
$("form", container).css("margin-top", "0").css("padding-top", "0");
//HideLoading(container);
}
}
);
}
This blows up in IE, with the message that "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this property or method" -- which, I think, has to be that $(form).ajaxSubmit method doesn't exist.
What is this code really trying to do? I am so turned around right now that I think my only option is to scrap everything and start over. But I'd rather not do that unless necessary.
Is this code good? Is it working against .Net, and is that why we are having issues?
A google search for
jquery ajax submit
reveals the jQuery Form Plugin. Given that, is that file included on your page where the other code will have access to the method? Does this code work in Firefox and not IE?
Seems like there was too much jQuery fun going on. I completely reworked the entire code block since it was poorly designed in the first place.
I have rather a complex UI. However, for the purpose of this question, let's say that there is a HTML table that renders UILayout1 by default (say default mode). There is a button that a user can use to toggle between the default mode and a preview mode (UILayout2)
When in preview mode, there are some columns in the table that are invisible and there are reordering of rows. I am using JS (jquery) on load to check the mode and change it accordingly.
The table and the toggle button are in UpdatePanels.
Functionally, everything works as expected. However, when a user toggles between default and preview mode or vice versa, there is this short time interval in which the the table renders in default and then JS runs to make changes.
This results in degraded UI experience. Are there any creative ways to avoid this "flicker"?
you can use DIVs or don't use update panel in your UI generation use any concept else
The problem is likely to be that your code is running on load. I'm assuming that you're doing this using the standard jQuery method of running code on load, and not using the window's onload event. In any case, even using jQuerys $(document).ready(...) will be too slow if you have a lot of other javascript files to load, as the .ready event isn't fired on the document until all javascript includes have loaded.
You should be able to work around the issue by including your code that modifies the table just after the html for the table in your page and not running it on load i.e. make sure you don't wrap it in $(document).ready(...);
For this approach to work, you will need to have all javascript required by the code which is modifying the table included earlier in the page.
If you have other non-essential javascript files included, you should try to include them later in the page.
I'm not 100% sure how being inside an update panel will affect it - you will need to make sure that your code is being re-triggered when the updatepanel updates, but I believe this should all happen automatically.
Presumably your UI is controlled by CSS? You might be able to get rid of the flickering by adding something like this at the start of your JavaScript or in the <head> of your HTML:
if (previewMode) {
document.documentElement.className = 'preview';
}
Then if you modify your CSS rules that apply to your preview mode to reflect the HTML element having the class="preview" to something like:
.preview table .defaultMode {
display:none;
}
hopefully your table should render correctly first time and will not need to be re-drawn.
