I write a test for a link with Protractor(using Pattern Page Object), but it always gave an error. So I decide to see what was going on and I write this one:
test.spec.js
it('It should redirect to Google.de', function(){
var logo = angularPage.logo3;
angularPage.clickLink(logo);
browser.getCurrentUrl().then(function (url) {
console.log('---> url:'+url);
});
});
login.page.js
this.navigate = function(ptor) {
browser.get(browser.baseUrl);
ptor = protractor.getInstance();
ptor.waitForAngular();
}
this.clickLink = function(link){
link.click();
var ptor;
this.navigate(ptor);
}
And what I got was the link didn't redirect me to another web page. I think is weird because the link actually works when I click on it. Anyone know what that can be happening?
Thanks.
My problem was that when you try to get current URL you can get it with two ways:
Supports AngularJS
var logo = angularPage.logoH3;
angularPage.clickLink(logo);
browser.getCurrentUrl().then(function (url) {
console.log('---> URL: '+url);
});
No Supports AngularJS
var logo = angularPage.logoH3;
angularPage.clickLink(logo);
browser.driver.getCurrentUrl().then(function (url) {
console.log('---> URL: '+url);
});
So login.page.js stays finally like this
login.page.js
this.clickLink = function(link){
link.click();
}
Thanks for your helping and your time ;)
I'm using the jQuery ajax form plugin in my WordPress plugin's settings page. Before I started using ajax, I had this script that compared text input values to placeholder values, and if they matched, set the text input value to null. But it no longer works now that I'm using ajax. With the jQuery ajax form plugin, I can pass arguments in a beforeSerialize function, or in a beforeSubmit function. I think it would need to be done in the beforeSerialize. Anyway, I'm not sure how to make this work. Here is the script that was working before I switched to ajax:
$('[placeholder]').focus(function() {
var input = $(this);
if (input.val() == input.attr('placeholder')) {
input.val('');
input.removeClass('placeholder');
}
}).blur(function() {
var input = $(this);
if (input.val() == '' || input.val() == input.attr('placeholder')) {
input.addClass('ssfa-placeholder');
input.val(input.attr('placeholder'));
}
}).blur().parents('form').submit(function() {
$(this).find('[placeholder]').each(function() {
var input = $(this);
if (input.val() == input.attr('placeholder')) {
input.val('');
}
})
});
And here is my current script for the ajax form submit:
var svn = $("#ssfa-saving"),
bck = $("#ssfa-saving-backdrop"),
svd = $("#ssfa-settings-saved");
$("#ssfa-form").ajaxForm({
beforeSend: function() {
svn.fadeIn('slow');
bck.fadeIn('fast');
},
success: function(){
svn.fadeOut('slow');
svd.delay(1000).fadeIn('slow').delay( 2500 ).fadeOut('slow');
bck.delay( 4500 ).fadeOut('slow');
}
});
Any ideas on how I can get the ajax submit (either beforeSerialize or beforeSend ) to ignore placeholder values? This first script above was a really simple solution for regular post submit. I'm hoping I can find something just as simple for ajax.
UPDATE
I worked out a basic way of doing it but it involves calling each text field that has a placeholder, so it's not exactly elegant like the original script, but this is functional:
$("#ssfa-form").ajaxForm({
beforeSerialize: function() {
var permex = $('input#exclusions');
$('input[id^=bs]').each(function(){
var bs = $(this);
if (bs.val() === 'Display Name')
bs.removeAttr('value');
});
$('input[id^=custom_]').each(function(){
var cs = $(this);
if (cs.val() === 'classname1|Display Name 1, classname2|Display Name 2')
cs.removeAttr('value');
});
if (permex.val() === '.avi, My Embarrasing Photograph, .tif')
permex.removeAttr('value');
},
beforeSend: function() {
etc.
And since it's a placeholder text, the text doesn't actually disappear when the value attribute is removed, so no one is really the wiser. I'm not over the moon with this, but it works. If I had a much larger form, this wouldn't be workable.
Open to better ideas....
Well, I played around with it quite a bit more and found a way to get the original code to work with ajax submit. It's quite simple actually. I just had to specify the element within which to search for the placeholder attr. Here it is:
beforeSerialize: function() {
$("#ssfa-form").find('[placeholder]').each(function() {
var input = $(this);
if (input.val() == input.attr('placeholder')) {
input.val('');
}
})
},
etc.

I'm making a mobile-app using Phonegap and HTML. Now I'm using the google maps/places autocomplete feature. The problem is: if I run it in my browser on my computer everything works fine and I choose a suggestion to use out of the autocomplete list - if I deploy it on my mobile I still get suggestions but I'm not able to tap one. It seems the "suggestion-overlay" is just ignored and I can tap on the page. Is there a possibility to put focus on the list of suggestions or something that way ?
Hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
There is indeed a conflict with FastClick and PAC. I found that I needed to add the needsclick class to both the pac-item and all its children.
$(document).on({
'DOMNodeInserted': function() {
$('.pac-item, .pac-item span', this).addClass('needsclick');
}
}, '.pac-container');
There is currently a pull request on github, but this hasn't been merged yet.
However, you can simply use this patched version of fastclick.
The patch adds the excludeNode option which let's you exclude DOM nodes handled by fastclick via regex. This is how I used it to make google autocomplete work with fastclick:
FastClick.attach(document.body, {
excludeNode: '^pac-'
});
This reply may be too late. But might be helpful for others.
I had the same issue and after debugging for hours, I found out this issue was because of adding "FastClick" library. After removing this, it worked as usual.
So for having fastClick and google suggestions, I have added this code in geo autocomplete
jQuery.fn.addGeoComplete = function(e){
var input = this;
$(input).attr("autocomplete" , "off");
var id = input.attr("id");
$(input).on("keypress", function(e){
var input = this;
var defaultBounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(
new google.maps.LatLng(37.2555, -121.9245),
new google.maps.LatLng(37.2555, -121.9245));
var options = {
bounds: defaultBounds,
mapkey: "xxx"
};
//Fix for fastclick issue
var g_autocomplete = $("body > .pac-container").filter(":visible");
g_autocomplete.bind('DOMNodeInserted DOMNodeRemoved', function(event) {
$(".pac-item", this).addClass("needsclick");
});
//End of fix
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(document.getElementById(id), options);
google.maps.event.addListener(autocomplete, 'place_changed', function() {
//Handle place selection
});
});
}
if you are using Framework 7, it has a custom implementation of FastClicks. Instead of the needsclick class, F7 has no-fastclick. The function below is how it is implemented in F7:
function targetNeedsFastClick(el) {
var $el = $(el);
if (el.nodeName.toLowerCase() === 'input' && el.type === 'file') return false;
if ($el.hasClass('no-fastclick') || $el.parents('.no-fastclick').length > 0) return false;
return true;
}
So as suggested in other comments, you will only have to add the .no-fastclick class to .pac-item and in all its children
I was having the same problem,
I realized what the problem was that probably the focusout event of pac-container happens before the tap event of the pac-item (only in phonegap built-in browser).
The only way I could solve this, is to add padding-bottom to the input when it is focused and change the top attribute of the pac-container, so that the pac-container resides within the borders of the input.
Therefore when user clicks on item in list the focusout event is not fired.
It's dirty, but it works
worked perfectly for me :
$(document).on({
'DOMNodeInserted': function() {
$('.pac-item, .pac-item span', this).addClass('needsclick');
}
}, '.pac-container');

I am trying to call a jquery ui dialog by attaching the function to the onsuccess property of the ajaxoptions on a ajax.beginform..
<script type="text/javascript">
// Dialog
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#dialog').dialog({
autoOpen: false,
width: 600,
modal: true,
buttons: {
"Ok": function () {
$(this).dialog("close");
}
}
});
});
</script>
In a seperate script file I have this..
function EmailResult() {
$('#dialog').dialog('open');
}
Then I have a contact form that is not actually wired up yet, the controller just responds with one of two string responses.
<% using (Ajax.BeginForm(new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "ContactResult", OnSuccess="EmailResult" }))
{ %>
If I take out the OnSuccess="EmailResult" from the Ajax.BeginForm or simply remove $('#dialog').dialog('open'); from my EmailResult function the error goes away so obvisouly this is an issue with the OnSuccess property and a Jquery UI Dialog.
My first question is am I doing something wrong that is causing this not to work and/or if this won't work then is there a better solution.
I am trying to create a dialog that comes up and says whether the message was sent. I do not want to use the alert dialog box.
I guess the error would help, in the IE 8 debugger it comes up with an undefined error in the MicrosoftAjax.js library
The finally block of this code is causing the problem and under the locals tab in IE 8 it says b is undefined.
this._onReadyStateChange = function () {
if (a._xmlHttpRequest.readyState === 4) {
try {
if (typeof a._xmlHttpRequest.status === "undefined") return
} catch (b) {
return
}
a._clearTimer();
a._responseAvailable = true;
try {
a._webRequest.completed(Sys.EventArgs.Empty)
} finally {
if (a._xmlHttpRequest != null) {
a._xmlHttpRequest.onreadystatechange = Function.emptyMethod;
a._xmlHttpRequest = null
}
}
}
};
What it was updating was
<%= Html.Hidden("ContactResult") %>
Which turns out was the whole problem, I changed the Hidden Input to a div and it works perfectly. Not sure why but... if anyone else runs into this there you go...
So I guess this is what I figured out.. I started a new mvc project with two inputs and started just using an alert box as it turns out it was not related to the jquery.ui dialog plugin. I got it to work correctly with the alert box coming up after it was run using the ajax.beginform.
So long story short.. You can't use a Hidden Input for the UpdateTargetID in the Ajax.BeginForm? I guess this is kind of a question and the answer but changing the UpdateTargetID to the ID of a "div" fixed it and it works appropriately. You can even set the Div visibility to hidden and it works.
I have problem with web after adding icon to Home Screen. If the web is launched from Home Screen, all links will open in new window in Safari (and lose full screen functionality). How can I prevent it? I couldn't find any help, only the same unanswered question.
I found JavaScript solution in iWebKit framework:
var a=document.getElementsByTagName("a");
for(var i=0;i<a.length;i++)
{
a[i].onclick=function()
{
window.location=this.getAttribute("href");
return false
}
}
The other solutions here either don't account for external links (that you probably want to open externally in Safari) or don't account for relative links (without the domain in them).
The html5 mobile-boilerplate project links to this gist which has a good discussion on the topic: https://gist.github.com/1042026
Here's the final code they came up with:
<script>(function(a,b,c){if(c in b&&b[c]){var d,e=a.location,f=/^(a|html)$/i;a.addEventListener("click",function(a){d=a.target;while(!f.test(d.nodeName))d=d.parentNode;"href"in d&&(d.href.indexOf("http")||~d.href.indexOf(e.host))&&(a.preventDefault(),e.href=d.href)},!1)}})(document,window.navigator,"standalone")</script>
If you are using jQuery, you can do:
$("a").click(function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
window.location = $(this).attr("href");
});
This is working for me on iOS 6.1 and with Bootstrap JS links (i.e dropdown menus etc)
$(document).ready(function(){
if (("standalone" in window.navigator) && window.navigator.standalone) {
// For iOS Apps
$('a').on('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var new_location = $(this).attr('href');
if (new_location != undefined && new_location.substr(0, 1) != '#' && $(this).attr('data-method') == undefined){
window.location = new_location;
}
});
}
});
This is an old question and many of the solutions here are using javascript. Since then, iOS 11.3 has been released and you can now use the scope member. The scope member is a URL like "/" where all paths under that scope will not open a new page.
The scope member is a string that represents the navigation scope of
this web application's application context.
Here is my example:
{
"name": "Test",
"short_name": "Test",
"lang": "en-US",
"start_url": "/",
"scope": "/",
...
}
You can also read more about it here. I also recommend using the generator which will provide this functionality.
If you specify the scope, everything works as expected similar to
Android, destinations out of the scope will open in Safari — with a
back button (the small one in the status bar) to your PWA.
Based on Davids answer and Richards comment, you should perform a domain check. Otherwise links to other websites will also opened in your web app.
$('a').live('click', function (event)
{
var href = $(this).attr("href");
if (href.indexOf(location.hostname) > -1)
{
event.preventDefault();
window.location = href;
}
});
If using jQuery Mobile you will experience the new window when using the data-ajax='false' attribute. In fact, this will happen whenever ajaxEnabled is turned off, being by and external link, by a $.mobile.ajaxEnabled setting or by having a target='' attribute.
You may fix it using this:
$("a[data-ajax='false']").live("click", function(event){
if (this.href) {
event.preventDefault();
location.href=this.href;
return false;
}
});
(Thanks to Richard Poole for the live() method - wasn't working with bind())
If you've turned ajaxEnabled off globally, you will need to drop the [data-ajax='false'].
This took me rather long to figure out as I was expecting it to be a jQuery Mobile specific problem where in fact it was the Ajax linking that actually prohibited the new window.
This code works for iOS 5 (it worked for me):
In the head tag:
<script type="text/javascript">
function OpenLink(theLink){
window.location.href = theLink.href;
}
</script>
In the link that you want to be opened in the same window:
Link
I got this code from this comment: iphone web app meta tags
Maybe you should allow to open links in new window when target is explicitly set to "_blank" as well :
$('a').live('click', function (event)
{
var href = $(this).attr("href");
// prevent internal links (href.indexOf...) to open in safari if target
// is not explicitly set_blank, doesn't break href="#" links
if (href.indexOf(location.hostname) > -1 && href != "#" && $(this).attr("target") != "_blank")
{
event.preventDefault();
window.location = href;
}
});
I've found one that is very complete and efficient because it checks to be running only under standalone WebApp, works without jQuery and is also straightforward, just tested under iOS 8.2 :
Stay Standalone: Prevent links in standalone web apps opening Mobile Safari
You can also do linking almost normally:
TEXT OF THE LINK
And you can remove the hash tag and href, everything it does it affects appearance..
This is what worked for me on iOS 6 (very slight adaptation of rmarscher's answer):
<script>
(function(document,navigator,standalone) {
if (standalone in navigator && navigator[standalone]) {
var curnode,location=document.location,stop=/^(a|html)$/i;
document.addEventListener("click", function(e) {
curnode=e.target;
while (!stop.test(curnode.nodeName)) {
curnode=curnode.parentNode;
}
if ("href" in curnode && (curnode.href.indexOf("http") || ~curnode.href.indexOf(location.host)) && curnode.target == false) {
e.preventDefault();
location.href=curnode.href
}
},false);
}
})(document,window.navigator,"standalone")
</script>
This is slightly adapted version of Sean's which was preventing back button
// this function makes anchor tags work properly on an iphone
$(document).ready(function(){
if (("standalone" in window.navigator) && window.navigator.standalone) {
// For iOS Apps
$("a").on("click", function(e){
var new_location = $(this).attr("href");
if (new_location != undefined && new_location.substr(0, 1) != "#" && new_location!='' && $(this).attr("data-method") == undefined){
e.preventDefault();
window.location = new_location;
}
});
}
});
For those with Twitter Bootstrap and Rails 3
$('a').live('click', function (event) {
if(!($(this).attr('data-method')=='delete')){
var href = $(this).attr("href");
event.preventDefault();
window.location = href;
}
});
Delete links are still working this way.
I prefer to open all links inside the standalone web app mode except ones that have target="_blank". Using jQuery, of course.
$(document).on('click', 'a', function(e) {
if ($(this).attr('target') !== '_blank') {
e.preventDefault();
window.location = $(this).attr('href');
}
});
One workaround i used for an iOS web app was that I made all links (which were buttons by CSS) form submit buttons. So I opened a form which posted to the destination link, then input type="submit"
Not the best way, but it's what I figured out before I found this page.
I created a bower installable package out of #rmarscher's answer which can be found here:
http://github.com/stylr/iosweblinks
You can easily install the snippet with bower using bower install --save iosweblinks
For those using JQuery Mobile, the above solutions break popup dialog. This will keep links within webapp and allow for popups.
$(document).on('click','a', function (event) {
if($(this).attr('href').indexOf('#') == 0) {
return true;
}
event.preventDefault();
window.location = $(this).attr('href');
});
Could also do it by:
$(document).on('click','a', function (event){
if($(this).attr('data-rel') == 'popup'){
return true;
}
event.preventDefault();
window.location = $(this).attr('href');
});
Here is what I'd use for all links on a page...
document.body.addEventListener(function(event) {
if (event.target.href && event.target.target != "_blank") {
event.preventDefault();
window.location = this.href;
}
});
If you're using jQuery or Zepto...
$("body").on("click", "a", function(event) {
event.target.target != "_blank" && (window.location = event.target.href);
});
You can simply remove this meta tag.
