associate array with numeric key
[1Reply]
- 27-Aug-2013 03:56 AM
- Forum: Getting Started
Noticed an inconsistency across browsers when looping associative arrays with numberic keys.
Chrome sorts it ascending. and other browsers(firefox) keep the order in which its created.
All shows it sorted when doing console.log.

I ended up adding a prefix to keys to fix the issue.
So which browser is doing right as per ECMA spec?
3. $(function () {
4. var o = {
5. "55": "five",
6. "44": "four",
7. "33": "three",
8. "22": "two",
9. "11": "one"
10. };
11. $.each(o, function (i) {
12. alert(i);
13. });
14. for(var i in o) {
15. alert(o[i]);
16. }
17. });

- Forum: jQuery Mobile
see this sample in android 2.x browser..its a sample to replicate a scenario in my application..

http://johnchacko.net/samples/tap.html

its abt listening to 'tap' and calling changePage from listener...

the second page is having some input fields, 'tap' event is bubbling/propagating to second page and focus is randomly set to input fields...

I read similar issues and want to know anybody experienced same issue and got a workaround for it....

Or I must use only 'click' ?

jquery("#") or getElementById

- Forum: Using jQuery
this may be discussed earlier...
I read jquery internally uses document.getElementById for $("#myDiv")
1.
but below test case show huge performance difference between
$("#myDiv")
and
document.getElementById("myDiv")

http://jsperf.com/jqueryvsgetelemid/2

2.another scenario I tried is below where second part is faster.
```
$("#myDiv .blah"); vs $(document.getElementById("myDiv")).find(".blah");
```
```
http://jsperf.com/jquery-getbyid
```
```
So if somebody keen on performance, its better to use document.getElementById for selecting with id.
```
```
is it right?

below is html

7. <input type="button" data-theme="b" value="data-theme='b'" id="testButton2"/>
8. </div>
9. </div>
changing the button theme as below

$("#testButton1").buttonMarkup({ theme: "b" }).button("refresh")
(This code can be directly tried from chrome/ff console)

it changes the theme.. but when I hover the button it returns to old theme.
And trying to change theme again wont work at all.

I knowh ow to change themes by directly changing underlying css classes.
But is above 'refresh' method supposed to work? or a bug?

If I do below line in loop.

var d= $("<div>blah</div>");

Is it hitting the DOM or it creates object and keep only in cache until call append()

$("body").append(d);

multiple headers and header in content
[0Replies]
- 21-May-2012 07:08 AM
- Forum: jQuery Mobile
Is it ideal to have more than one header(data-role=header) or headers in content(data-role=content)

I know the use of navbars.

something like...
2. <div id="home" data-role="page" data-theme="b">
3. <div data-role="header" data-theme="c">
4. </div>
5. <div data-role="header" data-theme="d">
6. </div>
7. <div data-role="content" data-theme="d">
8. <div data-role="header" data-theme="a">
9. </div>
10. </div>
11. </div>
This works fine in normal rendering.
But headers are not seems to be enhanced right when injecting to content.

Closures and garbage collection.
[1Reply]
- 11-May-2012 04:47 AM
- Forum: Getting Started
It a general javascript question.
I am using closures a lot and want to make sure not keeping too many variables in memory.
see sample code below.
Creating 10 div and attaching click event listener.
Event listener function is using a private variable of its parent. So a closure is created.
I assume variable '_closure' will not be garbage collected.
Put a breakpoint and '_local' got no scope.
Assume its garbage collected.. right?
2. function f() {
3. var _local = 1;
4. var _closure = 2;
7. var _div;
8. for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
9. _div = $("<div>" + i + "</div>");
10. _div.on("click.test", function (i) {
11. return function () {
12. alert(_closure++);
13. }
14. }(i));
15. $("body").append(_div);
16. }
17. }
19. $(document).ready(function () {
20. f();
21. });
is below a better design considering performance. It creates less anonymous functions.. ?
2. function f() {
3. var _local = 1;
4. var _closure = 2;
6. var _sub = function (i) {
7. return function () {
8. alert(_closure+++" ---- " + i);
9. }
10. }
12. var _div;
13. for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
14. _div = $("<div>" + i + "</div>");
15. _div.on("click.test", _sub(i));
16. $("body").append(_div);
17. }
19. }
21. $(document).ready(function () {
22. f();

plugin or module or component or widgets or ....
[5Replies]
- 20-Apr-2012 04:09 AM
- Forum: Getting Started
I am developing reusable custom components specific to my clients.
jquery plugin pattern is followed in the development.

Simple example below.
1. (function ($) {
  var methods = {
  init: function (options) {
  
  },
  add: function () {
  
  },
  delete: function () {
  
  }
  };
  
  $.fn.ns_contactsView = function (method) {
  // Method calling logic
  if (methods[method]) {
  return methods[method].apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
  } else if (typeof method === 'object' || !method) {
  return methods.init.apply(this, arguments);
  } else {
  $.error('Method ' + method + ' does not exist on ns_contactsView ');
  }
  };
  })(jQuery);
this will be used as
1. $("#divid").ns_contactsView({
  contacts:jsonData
  })
These are very specific to a particular industry, which will be used only by my clients.
Data input are in json format.
All are cross browser compatible.Themable...

My question is whats the right term to call these components....

jquery plugin like components pattern
[0Replies]
- 13-Apr-2012 06:59 AM
- Forum: Using jQuery Plugins
developing components (don't think its right to call them plugin).

Saw different patterns all describing about only one component/plugin.

These components use jquery core.
And its very much custom components released to use by specific clients.

Assume I have 2 components comp1 & comp2.

Pattern One
2. //component1
3. (function ($) {
4. var methods = {
5. init: function (options) {
6. var _this = this;
7. var _options = { //defaults
8. }
9. if (options) {
10. $.extend(_options, options);
11. }
12. _privateForComp1();
13. },
14. publicMethod: function () {}
15. };
16. //private for Comp1
17. var _privateForComp1 = function () {}
18. $.fn.Comp1 = function (method) {
19. // Method calling logic
20. if (methods[method]) {
21. return methods[method].apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
22. } else if (typeof method === 'object' || !method) {
23. return methods.init.apply(this, arguments);
24. } else {
25. $.error('Method ' + method + ' does not exist on Comp1');
26. }
27. };
28. })(jQuery);
29. //component2
30. (function ($) {
31. var methods = {
32. init: function (options) {
33. var _this = this;
34. var _options = { //defaults
35. }
36. if (options) {
37. $.extend(_options, options);
38. }
39. _privateForComp2();
40. },
41. publicMethod: function () {}
42. };
43. //private for tab
44. var _privateForComp2 = function () {}
45. $.fn.Comp2 = function (method) {
46. // Method calling logic
47. if (methods[method]) {
48. return methods[method].apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
49. } else if (typeof method === 'object' || !method) {
50. return methods.init.apply(this, arguments);
51. } else {
52. $.error('Method ' + method + ' does not exist on Comp2');
53. }
54. };
55. })(jQuery);
Pattern Two
2. (function ($) {
3. $.fn.Comp1 = function (tabOptions) {
4. // support mutltiple elements
5. if (this.length > 1) {
6. this.each(function () {
7. $(this).comp1(tabOptions)
8. });
9. return this;
10. }
11. }
12. })(jQuery);
13. (function ($) {
14. $.fn.Comp2 = function (tabOptions) {
15. // support mutltiple elements
16. if (this.length > 1) {
17. this.each(function () {
18. $(this).comp2(tabOptions)
19. });
20. return this;
21. }
22. }
23. })(jQuery);
I am not worried about chaining...So these components can return object which contains public methods as below.
2. (function ($) {
3. var methods = {
4. init: function (options) {
5. var _this = this;
6. var _options = { //defaults
7. }
8. if (options) {
9. $.extend(_options, options);
10. }
11. _privateForComp1();
12. return {
13. publicMethod: function () {}
14. }
15. }
16. };
17. //private for Comp1
18. var _privateForComp1 = function () {}
19. $.fn.Comp1 = function (method) {
20. // Method calling logic
21. if (methods[method]) {
22. return methods[method].apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
23. } else if (typeof method === 'object' || !method) {
24. return methods.init.apply(this, arguments);
25. } else {
26. $.error('Method ' + method + ' does not exist on Comp1');
27. }
28. };
29. })(jQuery);
jQueryUI is using $.widget as below
2. (function ($) {
3. $.widget("ui.menu", {
4. _create: function () {
5. this.refresh();
6. },
7. refresh: function () {},
8. activate: function (event, item) {},
9. deactivate: function () {}
10. // TODO merge with previousPage
11. nextPage: function (event) {},
12. // TODO merge with nextPage
13. previousPage: function (event) {},
14. hasScroll: function () {
15. return this.element.height() < this.element[$.fn.prop ? "prop" : "attr"]("scrollHeight");
16. },
17. select: function (event) {
18. this._trigger("selected", event, {
19. item: this.active
20. });
21. }
22. });
23. }(jQuery));
My question is which is the best approach to develop components/widgets which will be used by specific clients only.
Assuming all components in one single js file.

Working and modifying below sample, to make it dynamic.
http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0/docs/pages/dynamic-samples/sample-reuse-page.html

Above sample got only one level of list.My requirement to have some more level down.
So trying to create 'head','header','content' dynamically.
But its ending in error
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method '_trigger' of undefined

Combining id,class & data for selection
[10Replies]
- 17-Jan-2012 05:36 AM
- Forum: Using jQuery
Have a html like below.
2. <div id="parentDiv">
3. <div class="child">child1</div>
4. <div class="child">child2</div>
5. <div class="child">child3</div>
6. <div class="child">child4</div>
7. <div class="child">child5</div>
8. <div class="child">child6</div>
9. <div class="child">child7</div>
10. <div class="child">child8</div>
11. </div>
doing loop & setting an index to all child.
2. $("#parentDiv .child").each(function (index) {
3. $(this).data("_index", index);
4. });
Have a variable
1. var activeIndex=2;
Is it possible to get div using a combination of id,class and data for selection.
Something like
2. $("#parentDiv .child:data(_index = "+ activeIndex +")");
3. //or
4. $("#parentDiv .child[_index = "+ activeIndex +"]");

calculating height of elements

- Forum: Using jQuery
Looping through div using css class selector.
eg:
2. $(".listDiv").each(function (index) {
3. alert($(this).innerHeight());
4. });
some div's are display:none
How to skip them. InnerHeight gives Hidden div's also.
Intention is to calculate total height of visible div's
