I have a form, and I'm navigating only with TAB. Tab order should be input > select > button, but because of the ng-disable on the SUBMIT, on certain browsers the TAB out of the select will kick you somewhere else.
HTML
<div ng-app="myApp">
<div ng-controller="FirstCtrl">
<form name="myForm" ng-submit="submit()" novalidate>
First Name: <input type="text" ng-model="Data.FirstName" required><br>
Last Name: <select ng-model="Data.LastName" required>
<option value="Bigglesworth">Bigglesworth</option>
<option value="Burgermeister">Burgermeister</option>
</select><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" ng-disabled="myForm.$invalid" />
</form>
</div>
</div>
JS
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.factory('Data', function(){
return {
FirstName: '',
LastName: ''
};
});
myApp.controller('FirstCtrl', function( $scope, Data ){
$scope.Data = Data;
$scope.submit = function() {
console.log('you just submitted, foolio');
}
});
JsFiddle here.
On Mac FF the final tab kicks you to the address bar before enabling the submit button. Mac Chrome works as you'd expect, focusing on the submit button after final tab. I know Windows is janky, but don't have exact specs to post.
Thoughts? How can I do this in a fool-proof fashion?
EDIT
I've selected #David B.'s answer as it's the best Angular solution. I ended up using a somewhat hidden element right after the the submit button so the focus would stay in the same general area. Lame and hacky, I know, but for a tight deadline it worked.
<h3><button class="fakebtn_hack">Confirmation</button></h3>
<style>.fakebtn_hack {background:none; border:none; color: #FF6319; cursor: default; font-size: 1em; padding: 0;}</style>
This happens because Firefox doesn't send a change event on key-driven changes of the select. Angular doesn't see the change until the tab is hit, so the submit button isn't enabled until after the tab has been processed by the browser (and focus sent to some other element, e.g., the address bar). The W3C standard suggests not sending the event until the control loses focus, although Chrome sends one for any change and Firefox does if the change was mouse-driven.
See the angularjs issue tracker for more: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/4216
As suggested in the issue tracker, solve it by manually issuing the change event via the following select directive (http://jsfiddle.net/j5ZzE/):
myApp.directive("select", function () {
return {
restrict: "E",
require: "?ngModel",
scope: false,
link: function (scope, element, attrs, ngModel) {
if (!ngModel) {
return;
}
element.bind("keyup", function () {
element.trigger("change");
})
}
}
})
You'll need JQuery loaded before AngularJS to have the trigger function available on the element object.
Manually include an empty option (<option value=""></option>) in your select or the first option will be auto-selected when the control receives focus.
Unlike the default behavior, this empty option will not disappear after selecting a real option. I suppose you could remove the empty option by declaring all the options via ng-options or ng-repeat and then removing the empty one from the bound scope once a real option has been selected, but I've never tried it.

I recently started using the latest Desktop version of Google Material Design Lite, I figured it doesn't have a modal pop up and the team has not yet implemented it for the next release.
I have tried to include bootstrap model into it, but thats not working infect seems pretty messed, I believe with the classes/styles clashing with each others.
Any Idea what will work good as an replacement ??
Thanks for your help.
I was also looking for a similar plugin and then I found mdl-jquery-modal-dialog
https://github.com/oRRs/mdl-jquery-modal-dialog
I used this because the other one I found was having issue on IE11. This one works fine.
<button id="show-info" class="mdl-button mdl-js-button mdl-button--raised mdl-js-ripple-effect mdl-button--accent">
Show Info
</button>
Here a JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/w5cpw7yf/
I came up with a pure JavaScript Solution for this
You can use the default bootstrap data attributes for the buttons, and make sure that your buttons and modals have their own unique IDs.
You need to have Material Design Lite's JS included before using this JavaScript
Check out the code. Any reviews are welcomed. :)
// Selecting all Buttons with data-toggle="modal", i.e. the modal triggers on the page
var modalTriggers = document.querySelectorAll('[data-toggle="modal"]');
// Getting the target modal of every button and applying listeners
for (var i = modalTriggers.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
var t = modalTriggers[i].getAttribute('data-target');
var id = '#' + modalTriggers[i].getAttribute('id');
modalProcess(t, id);
}
/**
* It applies the listeners to modal and modal triggers
* #param {string} selector [The Dialog ID]
* #param {string} button [The Dialog triggering Button ID]
*/
function modalProcess(selector, button) {
var dialog = document.querySelector(selector);
var showDialogButton = document.querySelector(button);
if (dialog) {
if (!dialog.showModal) {
dialogPolyfill.registerDialog(dialog);
}
showDialogButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
dialog.showModal();
});
dialog.querySelector('.close').addEventListener('click', function() {
dialog.close();
});
}
}
<!-- Button to trigger Modal-->
<button class="mdl-button mdl-js-button" id="show-dialog" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#upload-pic">
Show Modal
</button>
<!-- Modal -->
<dialog id="upload-pic" class="mdl-dialog mdl-typography--text-center">
<span class="close">×</span>
<h4 class="mdl-dialog__title">Hello World</h4>
<div class="mdl-dialog__content">
<p>This is some content</p>
</div>
</dialog>
I use MDL with bootstrap and the modal is displayed correctly after adding the data-backdrop attribute this to the modal element:
<dialog data-backdrop="false">
Hope it helps!
I have a form, which I'm validating using JQuery Validation plugin. Validation works file until I add a Bootstrap 3 popover to the text field with name "taskName" (the one being validated) (please see below) . When I add the popover to this text field, error messages are repeatedly displayed every time the validation gets triggered. Please see the code excerpts and screenshots below.
I've been trying to figure out what is happening, with no success so far. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
HTLM Excerpt
The popover content
<div id="namePopoverContent" class="hide">
<ul>
<li><small>Valid characters: [a-zA-Z0-9\-_\s].</small></li>
<li><small>Required at least 3 characters.</small></li>
</ul>
</div>
The form
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" method="post" action="" id="aForm">
<div class="form-group has-feedback">
<label for="taskName" class="col-md-1 control-label">Name</label>
<div class="col-md-7">
<input type="text" class="form-control taskNameValidation" id="taskName" name="taskName" placeholder="..." required autocomplete="off" data-toggle="popover">
<span class="form-control-feedback glyphicon" aria-hidden="true"></span>
</div>
</div>
...
</form>
JQuery Validate plugin setup
$(function() {
//Overwriting a few defaults
$.validator.setDefaults({
errorElement: 'span',
errorClass: 'text-danger',
ignore: ':hidden:not(.chosen-select)',
errorPlacement: function (error, element) {
if (element.is('select'))
error.insertAfter(element.siblings(".chosen-container"));
else
error.insertAfter(element);
}
});
//rules and messages objects
$("#aForm").validate({
highlight: function(element) {
$(element).closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-success').addClass('has-error');
$(element).parent().find('.form-control-feedback').removeClass('glyphicon-ok').addClass('glyphicon-remove');
},
success: function(element) {
$(element).closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-error').addClass('has-success');
$(element).parent().find('.form-control-feedback').removeClass('glyphicon-remove').addClass('glyphicon-ok');
}
});
$('.taskNameValidation').each(function() {
$(this).rules('add', {
required: true,
alphanumeric: true,
messages: {
required: "Provide a space-separated name."
}
});
});
});
Bootstrap 3 popover setup
$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover({
trigger: "focus hover",
container: "body",
html: true,
title: "Name Tips",
content: function() { return $('#namePopoverContent').html();}
});
The screenshots
First Edit
It seems I did not make my question clear, so here it goes my first edit.
I'm not using the popover to display the error messages of the validation. The error messages are inserted after each of the fields that fail validation, which is precisely what I want. Hence, this question does not seem to be a duplicate of any other question previously asked.
Regarding the popover, I just want to add an informative popover that gets displayed whenever the user either clicks the text field "taskName" or hovers the mouse over it. Its role is completely independent of the validation.
The question is, then, why adding the (independent) popover is making the validation plugin misbehave, as shown in the screenshots.
I had the very same issue a few days ago and the only solution I found was to use 'label' as my errorElement:.
Change the line errorElement: 'span' to errorElement: 'label' or simply removing the entire line will temporarily fix the issue. ('label' is the default. )
I am not completely sure what the JQ validate + BS popover conflict is, but I will continue to debug.
After some debugging I think I found the issue.
Both jQuery validate and bootstrap 3 popovers are using the aria-describedby attribute. However, the popover code is overwriting the value written by jQuery validate into that attribute.
Example: You have a form input with an id = "name", jQuery validate adds an aria-describedby = "name-error" attribute to the input and creates an error message element with id = "name-error" when that input is invalid.
using errorElement:'label' or omitting this line works because on line 825 of jquery.validate.js, label is hard-coded as a default error element selector.
There are two ways to fix this issue:
Replace all aria-describedby attributes with another attribute name like data-describedby. There are 4 references in jquery.validate.js. Tested.
or
Add the following code after line 825 in jquery.validate.js. Tested.
if ( this.settings.errorElement != 'label' ) {
selector = selector + ", #" + name.replace( /\s+/g, ", #" ) + '-error';
}
I will also inform the jQuery validate developers.
The success option should only be used when you need to show the error label element on a "valid" element, not for toggling the classes.
You should use unhighlight to "undo" whatever was done by highlight.
highlight: function(element) {
$(element).closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-success').addClass('has-error');
$(element).parent().find('.form-control-feedback').removeClass('glyphicon-ok').addClass('glyphicon-remove');
},
unhighlight: function(element) {
$(element).closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-error').addClass('has-success');
$(element).parent().find('.form-control-feedback').removeClass('glyphicon-remove').addClass('glyphicon-ok');
}
(The success option could also be used in conjunction with the errorPlacement option to show/hide tooltips or popovers, just not to do the styling, which is best left to highlight and unhighlight.)
Also, I recommend letting the Validate plugin create/show/hide the error label element, rather than putting it the markup yourself. Otherwise, the plugin will create its own and ignore the one you've created.
In case you were unaware, you cannot use the alphanumeric rule without including the additional-methods.js file.
I am building a small landing page with a simple demo e-mail signup form. I want to have the form field open up when focused, and then shrink back down on blur.
However the problem I'm facing is when you click the submit button this instigates the blur function, hiding the button and shrinking the form. I need to find a way to stop the .blur() method only when the user is clicking to focus on the submit button. Is there any good workaround for this?
Would appreciate any help I can get!
I know this question is old but the simplest way to do it would be to check event.relatedTarget. The first part of the if statement is to prevent throwing an error if relatedTarget is null (the IF will short circuit because null is equivalent to false and the browser knows that it doesn't have to check the second condition if the first condition is false in an && statement).
So:
if(event.relatedTarget && event.relatedTarget.type!="submit"){
//do your animation
}
It isn't the prettiest solution, but it does work. Try this:
$("#submitbtn").mousedown(function() {
mousedownHappened = true;
});
$("#email").blur(function() {
if (mousedownHappened) // cancel the blur event
{
mousedownHappened = false;
}
else // blur event is okay
{
$("#email").animate({
opacity: 0.75,
width: '-=240px'
}, 500, function() {
});
// hide submit button
$("#submitbtn").fadeOut(400);
}
});
DEMO HERE
Try this inside .blur handler:
if ($(':focus').is('#submitbtn')) { return false; }
why not rely on submit event instead of click? http://jsbin.com/ehujup/5/edit
just couple changes into the html and js
wrap inputs into the form and add required for email as it obviously suppose to be
<form id="form">
<div id="signup">
<input type="email" name="email" id="email" placeholder="me#email.com" tabindex="1" required="required">
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submitbtn" value="Signup" class="submit-btn" tabindex="2">
</div>
</form>
in js, remove handler which listen #submitbtn
$("#submitbtn").on("click", function(e){
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
$("#signup").fadeOut(220);
});
and use instead submit form listerer
$("#form").on("submit", function(e){
$("#signup").fadeOut(220);
return false;
});
you may use $.ajax() to make it even better.
Doing this you gain point in terms of validation and the native browser's HTML5 validator will make check email format where it is supported.
I have a location search form that uses jQuery UI autocomplete.
When the user starts typing into the input, our list of locations appear as a drop down menu just below the input. If the user clicks one of the locations, the page redirects to the landing page for that location. The user can also click "enter" on the keyboard instead of explicitly clicking on the item.
Here's the probelm. I can't figure out how to get autocomplete to work if the user clicks the SUBMIT button. I'm not allowed to simply remove the submit button because it's a "call to action". The markup & code look like this: (I'm writing this from memory, so it may not be exact)
<form id="locationSearch">
<input type="text" id="enterLocation" />
<input id="goButton "type="submit" value="GO" />
</form>
<script>
var locations = [<br />
{'value': 'Brooklyn', 'url': '/ny/brooklyn/browse'}
{ 'value' : 'Hoboken; , 'url' : /nj/hoboken/browse'}
];
$('#enterLocation').autocomplete({
autoFocus: true,
source: 'locations',
select: event, ui (function() {
window.location.url
});
});
</script>
What I need to do is something like this:
$('#goButton').click(function() {
// trigger automcomplete select
});
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Try using
$('#enterLocation').trigger("autocompleteselect", function(){});
I have a strange problem. This code works fine in chrome and firefox, but in IE 8 the live event will not fire the first time I uncheck a box. If I check it and then uncheck again it works every time after that.
My serverside code in the view
<%: Html.CheckBox("select-invoice-" + invoice.InvoiceNumber,
true,
new { title = "choose to not pay anything on this invoice by unchecking this box" }) %>
renders to this
<input checked="checked" id="select-invoice-TST-1001"
name="select-invoice-TST-1001"
title="choose to not pay anything on this invoice by unchecking this box"
type="checkbox" value="true" />
Here is my javascript live event wireup, simplified
$(function () {
$("[id^='select-invoice-']").live('change', function () {
var invoiceId = $(this).attr('id').substr('select-invoice-'.length);
ComputeTotalPayment();
if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
//save invoice data
} else {
//remove invoice data
}
});
});
There are no errors in the javascript on any browser. If I switch IE to compatibility mode the live event never works. Other live events for clicks on links work just fine.
The change event doesn't fire correctly in IE until the checkbox loses focus.
Bug: http://webbugtrack.blogspot.com/2007/11/bug-193-onchange-does-not-fire-properly.html
You'll need to map to the "click" event instead.
I have found that change causes some problems in IE. Try using the click event instead. This appears to fix the problem.
I had a similar problem and solved it by calling .change() once on page load.
$(function () {
$("[id^='select-invoice-']").live('change', function () {
var invoiceId = $(this).attr('id').substr('select-invoice-'.length);
ComputeTotalPayment();
if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
//save invoice data
} else {
//remove invoice data
}
}).change();
});
