Can select an element, please help.

in Using jQuery • 9 years ago

Hi Guys,

First of all, I'm sorry, I'm not very familiar with jQuery (only Basics).

I'm doing a Price Count for my website and I'm stuck, because I can't select the element I need.

Here is JSFiddle

The problem is no matter what I'm trying but I can't get the title (or HTML inside the div) to display it in the textarea. I would like to retrieve the text inside the element, so to avoid adding extra tags to html.

<div class="medium-6 columns title" title="titulo">Titulo</div>

When I create this

var product = $(this).closest('div').find('.title').attr('title');

I also tryed

var product = $(this).closest('.title').html();
var product = $(this).closest('.title').text();

And others.

I keep on getting

undefined

Can someone tell me why?

title is not an ancestor, it’s an "uncle".

var product = $(this).closest('div.complemento').find(".title").text();

Is this better than the following??

var product = $(this).parent().siblings('.title').html();

I've also update the HTML.

As you can see I now have new elements,

how can I separate them in the textarea without copying all the script and changing clases, is it posible?

I want first father to apear, then all the elements below if that were checked and then the same with second father.

The fiddle

And one last thing, can you advice how do I wrappe it in IF, so if non selected display something?

Thanks a lot for your help,

It’s not like you are doing a gazillion "uncle" lookups per second. It makes little difference how you get there.

http://jsfiddle.net/jakecigar/WrtWP/4/ adds an annoying alert if nothing was checked.

Thanks a lot,

I modified the Fiddle and now it works as I need it to work.

Offcourse, now I will make more ajustments with the styles and modals etc. Without having ugly alerts and stuff.

Thanks again!

I'm pretty sure this topic is not yet over :)

Could you please take a look, why on several ocations, when I reset the fields it markes all of them as Checked?

I can't figure it out, why this is happening?

$('input:checkbox').each(function () {

$(this).prop("checked", false);

$(this).closest('.complemento').removeClass('clicked');

$('#total').html(total + '€');

});

Thanks,

One more thing.

I've added a % value in the price. If you mark it then this % will be added to the final price, could you please help me update the code, so it would work?
