keep getting a null value - can not read property of eventlistener of null.
You need to reference the function to window.onload, and it will be called once the window loads.
See the difference here.
window.onload = onload;
function onload(){
console.log('DOM loaded');
}
And here I am referencing whatever onload will return, in this case a function.
window.onload = onload(); // This will return the anonymous function of onload
// __________________|^^|
function onload(){
return function(){
console.log('DOM loaded');
}
}
So what you want to do is to remove () so your code becomes:
window.onload = eventMonitor; // eventMonitor will be run once windows loads.
I have an array in my View Model. Items of this array are objects of Person that has two properties. when I bind this to a template it's okay. but when I change the state of one of the properties it does not reflect in UI.
what did I do wrong ?
<script type="text/html" id="person-template">
<p>Name: <span data-bind="text: name"></span></p>
<p>
Is On Facebook ?
<input type="checkbox" data-bind="checked: IsOnFacebook" />
</p>
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var ppl = [
{ name: 'Pouyan', IsOnFacebook: ko.observable(true) },
{ name: 'Reza', IsOnFacebook: ko.observable(false) }
];
function MyViewModel() {
this.people = ko.observableArray(ppl),
this.toggle = function () {
for (var i = 0; i < ppl.length; i++) {
ppl[i].IsOnFacebook = false;
}
}
}
ko.applyBindings(new MyViewModel());
</script>
when I press the button I want to make changes in People.IsOnFacebook property. the changes will be made successfully but the UI does not show.
You should call it like a function. Like:
ppl[i].IsOnFacebook(false);
This because the ko.observable() returns a function. It's not a property you call anymore but a function call. So in the background they will update your UI. To retreive a property that is observable. You should also use the function call.

I have the following situation (using KendoUI):
I have a grid binded to a datasource.
When I select a row in the grid I invoke its "change" event to get the selected dataItem e show its values through other HTML elements.
Something like the following:
$("grid-element").kendoGrid({
change: setElements
});
function setElements() {
var grid = $("#grid-element").data("kendoGrid");
var selectedItem = grid.dataItem(grid.select());
$("#span-field1").text(selectedItem.field1);
$("#span-field2").text(selectedItem.field2);
$("#span-field3").text(selectedItem.field3);
}
My question is: is it possibile to achieve the same through MVVM or a better KendoUI model binding solution?
So far I have found the following solution:
=== JAVASCRIPT ===
var vm = kendo.observable({
gridSelectedItem: null,
_field1: function() {
return this.get("gridSelectedItem.field1");
},
_field2: function() {
return this.get("gridSelectedItem.field2");
}
});
$("#grid-element").kendoGrid({
change: function(e) {
var selectedItem = this.dataItem(this.select());
vm.set("gridSelectedItem", selectedItem);
}
});
=== HTML ===
<span data-bind="text: _field1"></span>
<span data-bind="text: _field2"></span>
Is there a better way?
Indeed there you are on the right track,
Here is what I can suggest you to try:
=== JAVASCRIPT ===
var vm = kendo.observable({
gridSelectedItem: null
});
$("#grid-element").kendoGrid({
change: function(e) {
var selectedItem = this.dataItem(this.select());
vm.set("gridSelectedItem", selectedItem);
}
});
=== HTML ===
<span data-bind="text: gridSelectedItem.field1"></span>
<span data-bind="text: gridSelectedItem.field2"></span>
It should be slightly more compact.
I have Google Autocomplete set up for a text field of an HTML form, and it's working perfectly.
However, when the list of suggestions appear, and you use the arrows to scroll and select using enter, it submits the form, though there are still boxes to fill in. If you click to select a suggestion it works fine, but pressing enter submits.
How can I control this? How can I stop enter from submitting the form, and instead be the selection of a suggestion from autocomplete?
Thanks!

You can use preventDefault to stop the form being submitted when enter is hit, I used something like this:
var input = document.getElementById('inputId');
google.maps.event.addDomListener(input, 'keydown', function(event) {
if (event.keyCode === 13) {
event.preventDefault();
}
});
Using the Google events handling seems like the proper solution but it's not working for me. This jQuery solution is working for me:
$('#inputId').keydown(function (e) {
if (e.which == 13 && $('.pac-container:visible').length) return false;
});
.pac-container is the div that holds the Autocomplete matches. The idea is that when the matches are visible, the Enter key will just choose the active match. But when the matches are hidden (i.e. a place has been chosen) it will submit the form.
I've amalgamated the first two answers from #sren and #mmalone to produce this:
var input= document.getElementById('inputId');
google.maps.event.addDomListener(input, 'keydown', function(e) {
if (e.keyCode == 13 && $('.pac-container:visible').length) {
e.preventDefault();
}
});
works perfectly on the page. prevents the form from being submitted when the suggestion container (.pac-container) is visible. So now, an option from the autocomplete dropdown is selected when the users presses the enter key, and they have to press it again to submit the form.
My main reason for using this workaround is because I found that if the form is sent as soon as an option is selected, via the enter key, the latitude and longitude values were not being passed fast enough into their hidden form elements.
All credit to the original answers.
This one worked for me:
google.maps.event.addDomListener(input, 'keydown', e => {
// If it's Enter
if (e.keyCode === 13) {
// Select all Google's dropdown DOM nodes (can be multiple)
const googleDOMNodes = document.getElementsByClassName('pac-container');
// Check if any of them are visible (using ES6 here for conciseness)
const googleDOMNodeIsVisible = (
Array.from(googleDOMNodes).some(node => node.offsetParent !== null)
);
// If one is visible - preventDefault
if (googleDOMNodeIsVisible) e.preventDefault();
}
});
Can be easily converted from ES6 to any browser-compatible code.
The problem I had with #sren's answer was that it blocks the submit event always. I liked #mmalone's answer but it behaved randomly, as in sometimes when I hit ENTER to select the location, the handler ran after the container is hidden. So, here's what I ended up doing
var location_being_changed,
input = document.getElementById("js-my-input"),
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input),
onPlaceChange = function () {
location_being_changed = false;
};
google.maps.event.addListener( this.autocomplete,
'place_changed',
onPlaceChange );
google.maps.event.addDomListener(input, 'keydown', function (e) {
if (e.keyCode === 13) {
if (location_being_changed) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
}
} else {
// means the user is probably typing
location_being_changed = true;
}
});
// Form Submit Handler
$('.js-my-form').on('submit', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('.js-display').text("Yay form got submitted");
});
<p class="js-display"></p>
<form class="js-my-form">
<input type="text" id="js-my-input" />
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&libraries=places"></script>
The flag ensures that if the location is being changed & user hits enter, the event is blocked. Eventually the flag is set to false by google map's place_changed event, which then allows the form to be submitted on hitting the enter key.
Here's a simple code that worked well for me (uses no jquery).
const googleAutcompleteField = this.renderer.selectRootElement(this.elem.nativeElement);
this.selectOnEnter(googleAutcompleteField);
This piece of code, to follow the code above, is used to implement google maps autocomplete (with or without the Enter key functionality sought in this question):
this.autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(googleAutcompleteField, this.googleMapsOptions);
this.autocomplete.setFields(['address_component', 'formatted_address', 'geometry']);
this.autocomplete.addListener('place_changed', () => {
this.zone.run(() => {
this.googleMapsData.emit([this.autocomplete.getPlace()]);
})
})
selectOnEnter (called above in the first piece of code) defined:
selectOnEnter(inputField) {
inputField.addEventListener("keydown", (event) => {
const selectedItem = document.getElementsByClassName('pac-item-selected');
if (event.key == "Enter" && selectedItem.length != 0) {
event.preventDefault();
}
})
}
This code makes the google maps autocomplete field select whichever item user selects with the down arrow keypress. Once user selects an option with a press of the Enter key, nothing happens. User has to press Enter again to trigger onSubmit() or other command
You can do it in vanilla :
element.addEventListener('keydown', function(e) {
const gPlaceChoices = document.querySelector('.pac-container')
// No choices element ?
if (null === gPlaceChoices) {
return
}
// Get choices visivility
let visibility = window.getComputedStyle(gPlaceChoices).display
// In this case, enter key will do nothing
if ('none' !== visibility && e.keyCode === 13) {
e.preventDefault();
}
})
I tweaked Alex's code, because it broke in the browser. This works perfect for me:
google.maps.event.addDomListener(
document.getElementById('YOUR_ELEMENT_ID'),
'keydown',
function(e) {
// If it's Enter
if (e.keyCode === 13) {
// Select all Google's dropdown DOM nodes (can be multiple)
const googleDOMNodes = document.getElementsByClassName('pac-container');
//If multiple nodes, prevent form submit.
if (googleDOMNodes.length > 0){
e.preventDefault();
}
//Remove Google's drop down elements, so that future form submit requests work.
removeElementsByClass('pac-container');
}
}
);
function removeElementsByClass(className){
var elements = document.getElementsByClassName(className);
while(elements.length > 0){
elements[0].parentNode.removeChild(elements[0]);
}
}
I've tried the above short answers but they didn't work for me, and the long answers I didn't want to try them, so I've created the following code which worked pretty well for me. See Demo
Suppose this is your form:
<form action="" method="">
<input type="text" name="place" id="google-places-searchbox" placeholder="Enter place name"><br><br>
<input type="text" name="field-1" placeholder="Field 1"><br><br>
<input type="text" name="field-2" placeholder="Field 2"><br><br>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
Then the following javascript code will solve the problem:
var placesSearchbox = $("#google-places-searchbox");
placesSearchbox.on("focus blur", function() {
$(this).closest("form").toggleClass('prevent_submit');
});
placesSearchbox.closest("form").on("submit", function(e) {
if (placesSearchbox.closest("form").hasClass('prevent_submit')) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});
And here is how the full code looks like in the HTML page (Note that you need to replace the YOUR_API_KEY with your google api key):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
<title>Prevent form submission when choosing a place from google places autocomplete searchbox</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="" method="">
<input type="text" name="place" id="google-places-searchbox" placeholder="Enter place name"><br><br>
<input type="text" name="field-1" placeholder="Field 1"><br><br>
<input type="text" name="field-2" placeholder="Field 2"><br><br>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

$(this).closest("form").toggleClass('prevent_submit');
});
placesSearchbox.closest("form").on("submit", function(e) {
if (placesSearchbox.closest("form").hasClass('prevent_submit')) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});

$("#myinput").on("keydown", function(e) {
if (e.which == 13) {
if($(".pac-item").length>0)
{

}
}
Use $('.pac-item:first').trigger('click'); if you want to select first result
I have some divs that are generated dynamically with content. I add the content id to the class for the div like so:
<div class="div-1"></div>
<div class="div-3"></div>
<div class="div-6"></div>
<div class="div-8"></div>
How do I select the id for a div because I need it as a param to send via ajax. e.g. I need to get the 1 when I click on the 1st div, 3 when I click on 2nd and so on
var id = $(this).attr('class').replace('div-', '');
Or even simple
var id = this.className.replace('div-', '');
Where this points to the dom element you click on inside the click handler.
//Here instead of document it is better to specify a parent container of all divs
$(document).on('click', '[class^="div-"]', function(){
var id = this.className.replace('div-', '');
});
Try this, and remember changing "div" for your selector:
$(document).on("click", "div", function() {
var class_elem = $(this).attr("class").split("-");
var n = class_elem[1]; // This is your number
});
The correct jQuery syntax is:
$("div").click( function() {
var id = $(this).attr('class').replace('div-', '');
});
