I'm using Zend Framework and Twitter Bootstrap for a website. From twitter bootstrap I'm using things like the alert:
<div class="alert">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</button>
<strong>Warning!</strong> Best check yo self, you're not looking too good.
</div>
Where an X is supposed to appear, appears a question mark (?). I have my charset as UTF-8.
That is not the only thing that is happening but in many places where I'm supposed to have Spanish characters what appears is a question mark. Does anybody know what's wrong? Thanks!
Dito, you might just put an simple x there instead of the multiply sign. You can also check out if it works with this HTML entity:
×
I've learned that encoding is a very difficult topic. There is the doctype declaration in your document – but there is also the web server (apache?) declaration and even a PHP setting. You can check out your website settings by hitting cmd+I (ctrl+i on a pc/linux) in FireFox.
My Hex editor told me that it is × and not x .
Remove charset from your meta in html and try again. Also, try to replace that with a 'real' x.

None of the bind examples in the documentation work - https://fancyapps.com/docs/ui/fancybox/api
The standard constructor examples work great, but anything that requires binding does not work. There is no error, but the gallery lightbox doesn't work - clicking an image just opens the image as a link. Here is the exact example code with markup:
<div id="gallery">
<a href="https://lipsum.app/id/1/800x600">
<img src="https://lipsum.app/id/1/300x225" />
</a>
<a href="https://lipsum.app/id/2/800x600">
<img src="https://lipsum.app/id/2/300x225" />
</a>
</div>
<script>
Fancybox.bind("#gallery a", {
on : {
ready : (fancybox) => {
console.log(`fancybox #${fancybox.id} is ready!`);
}
}
});
</script>
That console log never fires.
I'm importing FancyBox like this:
import { Fancybox } from '#fancyapps/ui';
I've tried searching around, but very little info on FancyBox 4 other than official docs and it's frustrating as they don't work. I've tried some of the examples in showcase also, and the same deal. If it's binding, it won't work and no errors are shown. Anyone have any insight into this?
Thanks,
Tom
It works perfectly fine. Since you did not provide a live demo (or at least a full HTML code), then it just not possible to help you.
It is so frustrating to read comments like this, no demo, no useful info, nothing. Maybe you did not include JS file, I do not know ... I would love to help you and to improve documentation, but, sorry, your comment is not helpful at all.
Fancybox is designed to be as easy to use as possible, all you have to do is:
Include two files - CSS and JS file (to get Fancybox object).
Add data-fancybox attribute to your links (or to call Fancybox.bind("YOUR_SELECTOR");)
Thats it! It can not be any simpler.
Sorry, it should have been a much clearer question. I didn't include a demo because it's a big wordpress site in production. It was giving me no useful feedback or errors or anything like that. I build websites day in and day out, so assumed it wasn't just me making some incredibly stupid mistake like a typo or something. I genuinely spent a lot of time on this, it wasn't me being lazy and just posting on stack overflow straight away...
It was me being stupid though.
In the process of making a demo to show you, I found the problem and (as you already know!) it's my mistake. I was able to make fancybox work by instantiating it straight away in my js, but binding (and therefore galleries etc) was not working.
The reason was the javascript was included in the head of the html document before the markup instead of at the bottom of the html document before the closing body. There was nothing for the js to bind to when it was executed.
I wouldn't normally include javascript in the head either but it's a wordpress project and because of some plugin, it's required there. Fancybox 3 worked with js in the head, but I suspect it might be jquery being more forgiving than native js with it's binding to DOM elements?
So, yes, entirely my fault. I was following the steps of the installation and startup guide almost exactly, but that inclusion of the js file in a slightly unusual (or bad practice at least) place was what caused all the issues.
I'm using NetBeans as my IDE for a Ember.js project. When I create handlebars templates in my app like below the code highlighting doesn't work correctly.
<script type="text/x-handlebars">
<div>
</div>
</script>
Normally, when I'd select the first div, it and its matching end tag would highlight yellow, but this doesn't work. Since its inside the handlebars script tag both are highlighted red as errors and don't match together. This makes writing complex templates kinda annoying as it can be difficult to pinpoint syntax errors.
Is there anyway to get NetBeans to highlight inside the handlebars tag as if its regular html?
One option, until Netbeans implements this enhancement, is to add the following script tag in index.html immediately after your reference to jQuery:
<script src="js/libs/jquery.js"></script>
<!-- use following line to change script type to 'text/x-handlebars' -->
<script>jQuery('script[type="text/html"]').attr('type', 'text/x-handlebars');</script>
This is a variation of the answer provided by GCoda.
I had the same problem and tried various non satisfying fixes.
In the end I figured the best solution is simply to change the script's type attribute to text/html:
<script type="text/html">
<div>
</div>
</script>
I got same problem. And i just used a some kind of postprocessing, i am using node.js, so i did res.send(data.replace(/type="text\/html"/g,'type="text/x-handlebars"')); on my / page.
I think you can do something similar in you language, and ofcource this is not a fix, just an ugly trick to make developing more easy. Dont keep it in production.
I've been using the Lift Web Framework as a REST only service for quite a while, but I need to use it as a stand alone tool now.
<lift:surround with="default" at="content">
<head>
<script data-lift="with-resource-id" src="/test.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<h2>Welcome to your project!</h2>
<p><lift:helloWorld.howdy /></p>
</lift:surround>
I have the above very basic Lift template. The problem is when I view it in the browser something is adding an <?xml> DOCTYPE and the browser defaults to interpreting the resource as XML instead of plain HTML.
How do I tell Jetty/Lift that my static file is HTML?
Sounds like you may be using the XHTML doctype. In your Boot.scala file, you may want to try adding:
LiftRules.htmlProperties.default.set((r: Req) =>
new Html5Properties(r.userAgent))
That should set your application to use HTML5, and should turn off adding the <?xml... encoding header.
Also, as #VasyaNovikov mentioned, the lift: prefixed tags are an older construct (even though a lot of documentation still mentions them). They still work but will have some issues with HTML5. It is recommended to use either of the equivalent forms:
Original:
<lift:surround with="default" at="content">...</lift:surround>
HTML5:
<span data-lift="surround?with=default;at=content"></span>
<span class="lift:surround?with=default;at=content"></span>
If you want to use the lift: variety, the biggest issue you'll find is that in HTML5 the tags and attributes are converted to lowercase, so <lift:helloWorld.howdy /> will be interpreted as <lift:helloworld.howdy />, and Lift will not find the snippet. Using <span data-lift="helloWorld.howdy"></span> should allow you to work around that.
Maybe adding the header will help?
<html>
<head>...
Example:
https://github.com/lift/lift_25_sbt/blob/master/scala_29/lift_basic/src/main/webapp/index.html
In general, you use a very old approach to templates, with custom tags <lift:surround>, <lift:helloWorld> and such. Where did you get them? I suggest to use the new template style like in the link I posted.
When, for example, I write this HTML with tinyMCE:
<p>asdasd</p>
<p class="relevant">asd</p>
<p>as</p>
the php that receives the form post prints the next:
<p>asdasd</p>
<p class=\"relevant\">asd</p>
<p>as</p>
How can turn off this behavior?
Thank you in advance
This is most likely due to the MagicQuotes feature in PHP and is covered in the TinyMCE FAQ.
The simplest way to deal with this is to disable the feature, especially as it has been deprecated as of PHP 5.3.0
An alternative is to clean up the results using
stripslashes($_POST['text']);
The Facebook comments count can be done in three different ways: (without directly using JS)
<fb:comments-count href="http://example.com" />
<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/comments.php?href=example.com" />
<div class="fb-comments-count" data-href="http://example.com">0</div>
The issue, however, is that doing something like this messes things up:
<p><div class="fb-comments-count" data-href="http://example.com">0</div> comments</p>
...because a <div> is firstly, not valid inside a <p> tag and secondly, looks wrong (though this could be fixed with CSS).
Basically, my question is: is there a way to do the above without using a <div> (a <span> for example), bearing in mind that I want to use the HTML5 method and (if possible!) want to avoid using javascript?
Clarification: I would like to avoid writing extra JS in the page simply because the MVC view currently looks nice and clean and I would prefer to keep it that way. Obviously, I'm still including the Facebook Connect library.
So, one solution would be to use a DIV instead of a P as the outer element.
