load more jquery function that i want - php

i am using MVC and my design for my website is that there is header and body and footer,
every page in my website will have the same header and the same footer, but with different body
and for ever page there is a JS file contains the jquery calls
and for many many pages when it is opening, jquery call works and get data from database using ajax and put that data in that page
my question is : sense the jquery calls begins with $(document).ready, so when i open any page, all the jquery call starts, i don't want that, but i want just the jquery for that page which is opening to be loaded
example
this jquery just for a page
$(document).ready(function(){
$.getJSON("http://localhost/Mar7ba/Cell/getAllCountries/TRUE",function(data){
var select = $("#countrySelector");
var options = '';
for(var i=0;i<data.length;i++){
options += "<option>"+data[i]+"</option>";
}
select.html("<option>Select Source</option>"+options);
});
});
and this jquery for another page , but it is loaded when i load the first page
$(document).ready(function(){
$.getJSON("http://localhost/Mar7ba/Type/getAllTypes/TRUE",function(data){
var options = '';
options+="<option>Select Type</option>";
for(var i=0;i<data.length;i++){
options += "<option>"+data[i]+"</option>";
}
$("#addPlace #apTypeSelect").html(options);
});
});

Test for the existence of the elements you're operating on, before you fire off the AJAX method. For instance, in your first example:
$(document).ready(function(){
var select = $("#countrySelector");
if (select.length) { // must test .length; 'select' always exists even if it's empty
$.getJSON("http://localhost/Mar7ba/Cell/getAllCountries/TRUE",function(data){
var options = '';
for(var i=0;i<data.length;i++){
options += "<option>"+data[i]+"</option>";
}
select.html("<option>Select Source</option>"+options);
});
}; // end if
});

If you don't want a script to run on a page then either:
Don't put it on the page in the first place or
Wrap it in a conditional that checks if running it would be appropriate for the current page

I think if you will put all the startup functions of all pages in document.ready then function will become too lengthy and readability will be effected. You should write different start-up function for each page and call them from page on loading , in this your code will remain simpler e.g.
In js file
function InitialFunctionOfPage1()
{//define all prerequisites}
function InitialFunctionOfPage2()
{//define all prerequisites}
and in each page you can relevant function on document.ready , ample for page 1
$(document).ready(function()
{
InitialFunctionOfPage1();
}

PHP AJAX JQUERY load page

I'm using the code below to load the results from a database query in a PHP page:
click me
$('.item > a').click(function(){
var url = $(this).attr('href');
$('.item-popup').fadeIn('slow');
$('.item-content').load(url);
return false;
});
All works fine right now, but the next bit of functionality is a problem. Inside results.php which ajax loads into .item-content, I have another link that is supposed to update and increment click counts for that link, also without refreshing. The functional PHP bits all work fine. My only problem is the jQuery/AJAX aspect of things.
Maybe I'm going about it the wrong way, but what I really want to do is have a page with a container that loads the result of of a database query from a PHP page, but also in that container, I have a link/button whose click count I want to be able to save and update all without refreshing.
EDIT
I guess the most important question I need answering is: When the ajax on index.php loads the content of results.php into the container in index.php, do browsers treat the newly loaded ajax content as part of the parent page (index.php) or is it still treated as a different page loaded into the container like an iFrame?
If say for example it is click event then you need to write
$('input element').on('click',function() {
// write code over here
})
Dont know for sure if you want this, When returning the data in the load function you will have to add a link like this in the resultant HTML which will be clickable:
Now in javascript you need to catch the click event of the link like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$(".item-content").on("click", ".clickable", function(){
var counter = $(this).data('counter');
var id = $(this).data('id');
$.ajax({
url : //your url here,
data : {'id' : id, 'counter' : counter },
type : 'POST',
success : function(resp){
//update the counter of the current link
$(this).data('counter', parseInt( $(this).data('counter') )+1 );
//whatever here on successfull calling of ajax request
},
error : function(resp){
}
});
});
});
</script>

how to launch jQuery Overlay from PHP and using `rel` attr?

I need to launch jQuery Overlay in two (call them three) situations:
From HTML button (using rel attr.)
When called from PHP
(2a) (to remain opened) after $_POST submit.
For (1) and (2) I tried this:
//my js func
function triggerOverlay(elem){
if(!elem){
elem = "button[rel]";
load = false;
}else{
load = true;
}
$(elem).overlay({
top : 'center',
closeOnClick: false ,
load : load ,
speed : 0,
});
};
//call from html file
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
<?php
//I'm calling Launch::init(); from where I need to launch it, and it sets self::$open_overlay = TRUE;
if(Launch::$open_overlay){
echo 'var elem = "#orderOverlay";'."\r\n";
}
?>
if(!elem){
var elem = false;
}
triggerOverlay(elem);
});
</script>
The problem with this one is that var elem will prevent using button after I call PHP Launch::init(). So, I need another approach, which will let me use both manual and automated launch of jQuery Overlay.
Then, I will take care of step (3)-> I will send same command as on (2) when I reload the page, after submitting form.
Assuming you are using jQuery tools plugin for overlay there are examples and docs for managing an overlay programmatically. Look at Scripting API on docs page and demo for Opening overlays programmatically
You can open an overlay within a form submit handler, or element click handler using :
$(selector).overlay().load();
Reference : http://jquerytools.org/documentation/overlay/index.html
If you are not using jQuery tools look at API for plugin you are using

Javascript functions on same DIV not working

I have two Ajax functions that are on the same div, the first one executes when complete page is fully loaded and call the ccslider method, instead the second one checks which menu ID I clicked, on the menu, to load dynamically different contents for different pages.
I can see the content loaded (eg: pictures) but unfortunately I don't see them in the ccslider; it seems that the slider is not executed.
But I know that works just because if I test it, removing the swapContent() function and place my PHP code with the MySQL query inside my main page the pictures are loaded inside the working ccslider.
Any hint on how to fix this problem?
$(window).load(function(){
$('#sliding').slider({
_Options: {
imageWidth: 300,
imageHeight: 200
}
});
});
function swapContent(cv) {
var url = "testing_cover.php";
$.post(url, {contentVar: cv}, function(data) {
$("#sliding").html(data).show();
});
}
You might have to call the slider method again inside the swapContent() function. Try this.
function swapContent(cv) {
var url = "testing_cover.php";
$.post(url, {contentVar: cv}, function(data) {
$("#sliding").html(data).show();
$('#sliding').slider({
_Options: {
imageWidth: 300,
imageHeight: 200
}
});
});
}
I have no access to the kind of plugin you're using, but from what it seems, you're probably modifying the HTML structure needed for it's functionality. Try inserting the HTML to a wrapper inside the #sliding element as opposed to directly in it.

Reload random div content every x seconds

I've got a div that randomly shows 1 of 10 files on each pageload. I'd like this to reload on a set time interval of 8 seconds, giving me a different one of the 10 files each reload.
I've read a few of the related questions using jQuery .load as a solution but this doesn't quite work with my code since I'm not loading a specific file each time.
This is my div content:
<div id="tall-content">
<?
$random = rand(1,10);
include 'tall-files/' . $random . '.php';
?>
</div>
Thanks
Using only PHP to accomplish this is impractical. This example uses jQuery and PHP.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#div").load("random.php");
var refreshId = setInterval(function() {
$("#div").load('random.php');
}, 8000);
$.ajaxSetup({ cache: false });
});
random.php
$pages = array("page1.php", "page2.php", "page3.php", "page4.php", "page5.php");
$randompage = $pages[mt_rand(0, count($pages) -1)];
include ($randompage);
while using PHP to generate the random content, you cannot get the div to reload that content without refreshing the entire page.
A better solution is to use AJAX. You can store that PHP code that's inside the div container as a seperate file, and use ajax to request that php file. You can also set an infinite loop to request the php file every 8 seconds. Here is a sample, but you will need to re-code it to your specification:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function ajaxFunction(){
var ajaxRequest;
try{ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();} catch (e){try{ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");} catch (e) {try{ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");} catch (e){alert("Error: Browser/Settings conflict");return false;}}}
ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function(){
if(ajaxRequest.readyState == 4){
document.getElementById('tall-content').innerHTML = ajaxRequest.responseText;
}
}
var url = "random.php";
ajaxRequest.open("GET", url, true);
ajaxRequest.send(null);
}
//-->
</script>
The only missing part is the refresh timer, since I do not program a lot in javascript I can't help you there. But the goal in this case is to create a file "random.php", put the random generator there, and use this script above to make an ajax request to random.php, which will place the output of that php script in the div container with the id of "tall-content". So really, you need to create another javascript which loops indefinitely calling the function "ajaxFunction()" and wait 8000 milliseconds .
If you want to do this while the user is sitting back in the chair on your page, the answer is javascript.
You could use this function for example.
function recrusive_timeout_function() {
setTimeout(function() {
recrusive_timeout_function();
}, 8000);
}
If you want to include a php file in that div (which outputs some html). Ajax is your friend and JQuery as a user friendly and easy to use javascript framework which handles your thinks really nice.

Include Jquery script in .js page

Sorry if title is not too clear but I think it's about right. NEhow, what I would like to do is a bit like (well is to a certain extent) building a widget with JQuery (pref), PHP & CSS.
What I would really like to happen is for a "member" of my site to simply paste 2 lines of code in their HTML to load the widget. Something like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/script.js"></script>
Then to display the widget something like this <div id="displaywidget"></div>
OK that bit is "easy" and ok. But how do I include JQuery or "something" to generate the widget in script.js
What I mean is "displaywidget" - the ID of the widget div will be the name of a php file on my server so essentially script.js will need to load displaywidget.php into the div displaywidget.
I think I use document.getElementById('displaywidget') to get the div but how do I then "write/insert/load" displaywidget.php inside the div?
Thinking as I write "pure" java can do "most of what I want i.e. document.getElementById('displaywidget'), BUT I would prefer to also "include" Jquery.js as I would like some aspects of the widget to use JQuery. Example being the JQuery UI date function.
Sorry if I am rambling a bit but trying to think as I go along. My "real" problem is I am not too sure on "pure" javascript i.e. getting the div to display/load displaywidget.php
Suggestions please. (Oh if I am barking up the wrong tree please feel free to tell me - nicely:) )
Thanks in advance
I think I use document.getElementById('displaywidget') to get the div but how do I then "write/insert/load" displaywidget.php inside the div?
You're looking for the AJAX behaviors inside of jQuery which would make the call to the php page and then push the data into the div.
You should be loading jQuery early on in the process, right up front in your head element. Once its loaded it will be cached so no worries of its on every page. No real overhead incurred.
Once jQuery is installed you can call one of many AJAX functions related to obtaining data and popluation elements. Theres $.load(), $.ajax(), and a few others that escape me unless I go and check out their docs section.
You can do all of this without jQuery, but its more code and you have to control for browser differences.
You can load jquery into script.js, just copy and paste it after or before whatever javascript lives in script.js.
So if script.js is:
//start of file
alert('ex');
//end of file
Make it:
//start of file
alert('ex')
Copy and pasted Jquery source
//end of file
After a bit more "trawling & thought" I found this code:
(function() {
// Localize jQuery variable
var jQuery;
/******** Load jQuery if not present *********/
if (window.jQuery === undefined || window.jQuery.fn.jquery !== '1.4.2') {
var script_tag = document.createElement('script');
script_tag.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");
script_tag.setAttribute("src","http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js");
script_tag.onload = scriptLoadHandler;
script_tag.onreadystatechange = function () { // Same thing but for IE
if (this.readyState == 'complete' || this.readyState == 'loaded') {
scriptLoadHandler();
}
};
// Try to find the head, otherwise default to the documentElement
(document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0] || document.documentElement).appendChild(script_tag);
} else {
// The jQuery version on the window is the one we want to use
jQuery = window.jQuery;
main();
}
/******** Called once jQuery has loaded ******/
function scriptLoadHandler() {
// Restore $ and window.jQuery to their previous values and store the
// new jQuery in our local jQuery variable
jQuery = window.jQuery.noConflict(true);
// Call our main function
main();
}
/******** Our main function ********/
function main() {
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
******* Load CSS *******/
var css_link = $("<link>", {
rel: "stylesheet",
type: "text/css",
href: "style.css"
});
css_link.appendTo('head');
/******* Load HTML *******/
var jsonp_url = "http://al.smeuh.org/cgi-bin/webwidget_tutorial.py?callback=?";
$.getJSON(jsonp_url, function(data) {
$('#example-widget-container').html("This data comes from another server: " + data.html);
});
});
}
})(); // We call our anonymous function immediately
