Why am I getting an error in Firebug "u is undefined"?
My page consists of a display of photos and photo gallery as a special separate section in the PHP code divided using the "break".
Photos and photo galleries are displayed using the "Fancybox.js".
The first time when I try to open a photo, everything works fine but when I do it again after I refresh the page the Firebug display error "u is undefined".
The Jquery for the menu that I'm using for display these separate part of the page:
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".menu_rfr").bind('click', function() {
$("#main").html('<img src="img/spin.gif" class="spin">');
location.replace($(this).attr('rel'));
});
$(".menu_clickable").bind('click', function() {
$("#main").html('<img src="img/spin.gif" class="spin">');
$("#main").load($(this).attr('rel'), function(event) {
});
$(".menu_clickable").unbind("click");
});
});
The simplified PHP code looks like:
<?
if (!isset($a)) $a = '';
switch($a)
{
case 1:
default:
?>
<div class="menu_clickable prof_link" id="prof_info" rel="?a=2">Photos</div>
<div class="menu_clickable prof_link" id="prof_info" rel="?a=3">Gallery</div>
<div id="main"></div>
<?
break;//photos
case 2:
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("a.group").fancybox({
'titlePosition' : 'over',
'overlayShow':false
});
</script>
<?
<img src="tmb/1.jpg" border="0">
<?
break;
case 3: // photo gallery
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("a.groupg").fancybox({
'titlePosition' : 'over',
'overlayShow':false
});
</script>
<?
<img src="tmb/2.jpg" border="0">
<?
break;
}
?>
As I said this is a simplified code, and probably there are some errors in it. I just wanted to show where and how I'm using Fancybox.
Is there a conflict between the jquery code for the menu at the top of the page and this for fancybox or there is some other reason why I keep getting an error in Firebug "u is undefined" after opening the other part of the PHP page and attempts to re-opening photos?
View your HTML source and make sure you don't have FancyBox declared twice. I just had the exact same error pop up in firebug and this is what I found in my source:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="./ext_scripts/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1.pack.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./ext_scripts/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="./ext_scripts/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1.pack.js"></script>
Not sure exactly why it happened, but if you nest your include and require_onces in your PHP like I unfortunately did, you can wind up with some very funky Javascript references.
You probably have the fancybox.js script included twice which is causing the issue. Please check all your files and remove the the ones that are not required.
I have this same bug as well - I think it is due to the the 'loading' divs being reset by the cleanup code. I have a VERY nasty fix:
Change:
if ($("#fancybox-wrap").length) {
return;
To: (To skip the multiple-init check)
if (false && $("#fancybox-wrap").length) {
And add:
$.apzFancyboxInit = fancybox_init;
after 'fancybox_init = function() {'
What this does is allow us to call the initialisation routine multiple times; and saves the function pointer to this routine in a global variable. All we have to do now is make sure we call the $.apzFancyboxInit function every time a fancybox is closed. The best place to do this is in the onClosed function handler; so (in my case), my calls look like this:
$.fancybox(
{
'showCloseButton' : true,
'type' : 'ajax',
'onClosed' : function()
{
$.apzFancyboxInit();
},
If you are using a "ripped" template you may find that there are the fancybox generated div written in tho the html template right above the </body> tag.
check if your html output has a div with the id of fancybox-wrap if you have JavaScript disabled, and remove that.

I am trying to tweak a website so users will be able to swipe through the photo galleries on their mobile devices. I tried doing this by using JQuery. The website was not written by me, so I can't really explain the choices the previous programmer made regarding their code.
Currently, users can change pictures by clicking (tapping) on the current picture. The code for this is found in a php file called home.php. This is it:
<?php
...
$main_content .= "\n <div class='main_image'>
<a href='$next_slideURL' style='display:block'>
<img src='$root/$item_path/$slideFile' alt='$slideCaption from $projectTitle\n [xxxxxxxxxxxxx]' style='max-width:832px; max-height:500px' title='$projectTitle: $slideCaption. \nclick for next slide ($next_slideCaption). '></a>
</div>\n";
...
?>
To add swiping capabilities, I added the following code right after the one above:
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>";
echo "(function(){
$(\"div.main_image\").on(\"swipeleft\", swipeleftHandler);
$(\"div.main_image\").on(\"swiperight\", swiperightHandler);
function swipeleftHandler(event){
$.mobile.changePage(\"$next_slideURL\", {transition: \"slideleft\", changeHash: false});
}
function swiperightHandler(event){
$.mobile.changePage(\"$previous_slideURL\", {transition: \"slideright\", changeHash: false});
}
});";
echo "</script>";
While I'm not sure exactly why this isn't working, I have a few possible reasons (which might all be true unfortunately).
1) Since the div class='main_image' is done as a variable declaration, the JQuery line "div.main_image" doesn't have a reference (i.e. it doesn't know what main_image is). I'm not sure why the div is created as a variable declaration ($main_content keeps being added on throughout the php file, and in the end it's echoed along with a bunch of other variables).
2) I need to include the following code for JQuery but I have it in the wrong place:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.2/jquery.mobile-1.3.2.min.css">
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.2/jquery.mobile-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
right now I have it in the header section of index.html file. Is this wrong?
3) I've never used JQuery before, so any number of things might be wrong about the short script I wrote.
Sorry about the long post, I'm not sure how to explain this in a simpler way.
I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me either with this approach, or propose a different one.
Cheers!
Use $ while writting ready function
<?php
echo "$(function(){
// ---^--- use $ here
....
....";
echo "</script>";
?>
If $ conflicts then your can use jQuery like,
Full Code:
<?php
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>";
echo "jQuery(function(){
jQuery('div.main_image').on('swipeleft', swipeleftHandler);
jQuery('div.main_image').on('swiperight', swiperightHandler);
function swipeleftHandler(event){
$.mobile.changePage('".$next_slideURL."', {transition: 'slideleft', changeHash: false});
}
function swiperightHandler(event){
$.mobile.changePage('".$previous_slideURL."', {transition: 'slideright', changeHash: false});
}
});";
echo "</script>";
?>
Looks like you need to put your javascript in the $main_content variable, like the other code.
But to be honest you should seperate your javascript from the html/php.
Best way is to break out of php tags
and change this (function () to $(function ()
<?php
//php code
?>
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(function () {
$("div.main_image").on("swipeleft", swipeleftHandler);
$("div.main_image").on("swiperight", swiperightHandler);
function swipeleftHandler(event) {
$.mobile.changePage("$next_slideURL", {
transition: "slideleft",
changeHash: false
});
}
function swiperightHandler(event) {
$.mobile.changePage("$previous_slideURL", {
transition: "slideright",
changeHash: false
});
}
});
</script>;
<?php
//php code
?>
I'm looking for the easiest way to add a simple like button to my site. Basically, a button that, when clicked - changes to a new graphic (letting you know you clicked it), can't be clicked again, and sends to a php script so the server knows what you liked.
I thought a good technique might be putting a like button inside an iframe so you can click it and the php page could just echo 'thanks for liking this' - but the problem is the iframe has to have a source. I don't want a ton of external files loading into each page. Is there any way I could just have an iframe tag and put HTML inside it without it being external?
Hopefully this makes sense. I do not know your server structure, so its hard for me to build a complete example but this should get you off your feet!
File: Index.php
// query the database and check to see if there is a record for this content piece and ip address
// select count() from statistics where contentId='1' and ip='0.0.0.0' limit 1;
$contentLiked = false;
?>
<html>
<head>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js" ></script>
<script src="site.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<? if(!$contentLiked): ?>
like
<? else: ?>
unlike
<? endif ?>
</body>
</html>
File: site.js
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.likeButton').click(function() {
var contentId = $(this).attr('rel');
var link = this;
if(!$(link).hasClass('liked')) {
$.post("like.php", { Id: contentId }).done(function(data) {
if(data) {
$(link).addClass('liked');
$(link).html('liked');
}
});
}
});
});
File: like.php
<?
$contentId = $_POST['Id'];
$timestamp = time();
$usersIP = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
// php code to update the database
// insert: contentId, timestamp, ip address
// if injected then echo / print true;
echo 'true';
?>
You should use jquery animate. It allows you to create an animation on a HTML element that you choose with jquery.
With Jquery, using the 'click' event, you can use the animate effect, and have something like this:
$("#my-button").click(function(){
$(this).animate({
height: 'toggle'
}, 500, function(){
$(this).animate({
height: 'toggle'
}, 500);
});
});
Please see the following example of doing that
<button type="button" id="okButton" onclick="funk()" value="okButton">Order now </button>
<script type="text/javascript">
function funk(){
alert("asdasd");
<?php echo "asdasda";?>
}
</script>
When the button is pressed I want to execute PHP code (at this point to echo asadasda)
You could use http://phpjs.org/ http://locutus.io/php/ it ports a bunch of PHP functionality to javascript, but if it's just echos, and the script is in a php file, you could do something like this:
alert("<?php echo "asdasda";?>");
don't worry about the shifty-looking use of double-quotes, PHP will render that before the browser sees it.
as for using ajax, the easiest way is to use a library, like jQuery. With that you can do:
$.ajax({
url: 'test.php',
success: function(data) {
$('.result').html(data);
}
});
and test.php would be:
<?php
echo 'asdasda';
?>
it would write the contents of test.php to whatever element has the result class.
Interaction of Javascript and PHP
We all grew up knowing that Javascript ran on the Client Side (ie the browser)
and PHP was a server side tool (ie the Server side). CLEARLY the two just cant interact.
But -- good news; it can be made to work and here's how.
The objective is to get some dynamic info (say server configuration items) from the server into the Javascript environment so it can be used when needed - - typically this implies DHTML modification to the presentation.
First, to clarify the DHTML usage I'll cite this DHTML example:
<script type="text/javascript">
function updateContent() {
var frameObj = document.getElementById("frameContent");
var y = (frameObj.contentWindow || frameObj.contentDocument);
if (y.document) y = y.document;
y.body.style.backgroundColor="red"; // demonstration of failure to alter the display
// create a default, simplistic alteration usinga fixed string.
var textMsg = 'Say good night Gracy';
y.write(textMsg);
y.body.style.backgroundColor="#00ee00"; // visual confirmation that the updateContent() was effective
}
</script>
Assuming we have an html file with the ID="frameContent" somewhere,
then we can alter the display with a simple < body onload="updateContent()" >
Golly gee; we don't need PHP to do that now do we! But that creates a structure for
applying PHP provided content.
We change the webpage in question into a PHTML type to allow the server side PHP access
to the content:
**foo.html becomes foo.phtml**
and we add to the top of that page. We also cause the php data to be loaded
into globals for later access - - like this:
<?php
global $msg1, $msg2, $textMsgPHP;
function getContent($filename) {
if ($theData = file_get_contents($filename, FALSE)) {
return "$theData";
} else {
echo "FAILED!";
}
}
function returnContent($filename) {
if ( $theData = getContent($filename) ) {
// this works ONLY if $theData is one linear line (ie remove all \n)
$textPHP = trim(preg_replace('/\r\n|\r|\n/', '', $theData));
return "$textPHP";
} else {
echo '<span class="ERR">Error opening source file :(\n</span>'; # $filename!\n";
}
}
// preload the dynamic contents now for use later in the javascript (somewhere)
$msg1 = returnContent('dummy_frame_data.txt');
$msg2 = returnContent('dummy_frame_data_0.txt');
$textMsgPHP = returnContent('dummy_frame_data_1.txt');
?>
Now our javascripts can get to the PHP globals like this:
// by accessig the globals
var textMsg = '< ? php global $textMsgPHP; echo "$textMsgPHP"; ? >';
In the javascript, replace
var textMsg = 'Say good night Gracy';
with:
// using php returnContent()
var textMsg = '< ? php $msgX = returnContent('dummy_div_data_3.txt'); echo "$msgX" ? >';
Summary:
the webpage to be modified MUST be a phtml or some php file
the first thing in that file MUST be the < ? php to get the dynamic data ?>
the php data MUST contain its own css styling (if content is in a frame)
the javascript to use the dynamic data must be in this same file
and we drop in/outof PHP as necessary to access the dynamic data
Notice:- use single quotes in the outer javascript and ONLY double quotes in the dynamic php data
To be resolved: calling updateContent() with a filename and
using it via onClick() instead of onLoad()
An example could be provided in the Sample_Dynamic_Frame.zip for your inspection, but didn't find a means to attach it
You can't run PHP with javascript. JavaScript is a client side technology (runs in the users browser) and PHP is a server side technology (run on the server).
If you want to do this you have to make an ajax request to a PHP script and have that return the results you are looking for.
Why do you want to do this?
If you just want to echo a message from PHP in a certain place on the page when the user clicks the button, you could do something like this:
<button type="button" id="okButton" onclick="funk()" value="okButton">Order now</button>
<div id="resultMsg"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function funk(){
alert("asdasd");
document.getElementById('resultMsg').innerHTML('<?php echo "asdasda";?>');
}
</script>
However, assuming your script needs to do some server-side processing such as adding the item to a cart, you may like to check out jQuery's http://api.jquery.com/load/ - use jQuery to load the path to the php script which does the processing. In your example you could do:
<button type="button" id="okButton" onclick="funk()" value="okButton">Order now</button>
<div id="resultMsg"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function funk(){
alert("asdasd");
$('#resultMsg').load('path/to/php/script/order_item.php');
}
</script>
This runs the php script and loads whatever message it returns into <div id="resultMsg">.
order_item.php would add the item to cart and just echo whatever message you would like displayed. To get the example working this will suffice as order_item.php:
<?php
// do adding to cart stuff here
echo 'Added to cart';
?>
For this to work you will need to include jQuery on your page, by adding this in your <head> tag:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Any server side stuff such as php declaration must get evaluated in the host file (file with a .php extension) inside the script tags such as below
<script type="text/javascript">
var1 = "<?php echo 'Hello';?>";
</script>
Then in the .js file, you can use the variable
alert(var1);
If you try to evaluate php declaration in the .js file, it will NOT work
put your php into a hidden div and than call it with javascript
php part
<div id="mybox" style="visibility:hidden;"> some php here </div>
javascript part
var myfield = document.getElementById("mybox");
myfield.visibility = 'visible';
now, you can do anything with myfield...
We can use php in JavaScript by creating a form element and put the action as a .php page.
Then we use JavaScript to submit that form.
EX:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Executed with JS</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="phpCode.php" id="phpCode">.
</form> <!-- This is the form-->
<script>
function runPhp() {
var php =
document.getElementById("phpCode")
php.submit() //submit the form
}
</script>
</body>
The PHP file name would be phpCode.php.
In that file would be your PHP code.
May be this way:
<?php
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=="POST") {
echo 'asdasda';
}
?>
<form method="post">
<button type="submit" id="okButton">Order now</button>
</form>
If you do not want to include the jquery library you can simple do the following
a) ad an iframe, size 0px so it is not visible, href is blank
b) execute this within your js code function
window.frames['iframename'].location.replace('http://....your.php');
This will execute the php script and you can for example make a database update...
Use ajax to send request and echo the response
when successfully executed. Like this:
$.get("site.com/ajax", function(status,data){
alert(status);
});
This can be achieved with jquery library.
You could run PHP at the start of the Page and grap the results from inputs
<?php
c = a * b;
?>
<input type="hidden" name="c" value="<?php c ?>"/>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
<script>
let cValue = $('input[name="c"]').val();
alert(cValue);
</script>
I'm trying to simply echo a function back to the client browser from a server php page after a selection has been made in a jQuery autocomplete box so that the function can process as needed (client-side) with the value of the autocomplete box. The autocomplete is in the php page as follows:
mypage.php
<html>
<head>
<title>Autocomplete</title>
<link href="../../jqSuitePHP/themes/redmond/jquery-ui-1.8.2.custom.css" id="skin" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="../../jqSuitePHP/js/jquery-1.6.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="../../jqSuitePHP/js/jquery-ui-1.8.14.custom.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
$(function ac_boxes() {
$("#dlr").autocomplete({
source: "dlrAutocompleteSearch.php",
minLength: 2,
search : function(){$(this).addClass('ui-autocomplete-loading');},
open : function(){$(this).removeClass('ui-autocomplete-loading');},
select: function( event, ui ) {
// Here's my attempt at calling the client side 'test' function
<?php echo '<script>window[test](ui.item.value)</script>;' ?>
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
---------
</body>
</html>
But the < and > are causing a problem. If I remove the < and >, the page processes completely (without the 'select' function of course. If I add the < and >, the page does not process.
I have tried assigning the string using the php htmlentities() as such:
<?php
$val = htmlentities('<script>window[test](ui.item.value)</script>;');
echo $val;
?>
But this doesn't seem to work either.
Is my problem stemming from the php being inside of the jQuery script? If so, what is another method of calling the php from the 'select' method of autocomplete?
Thanks in advance.
I don't think this code is doing what you think it is doing; when you load the page the PHP is executed and you end up with something like this in the source code:
<script>
...
select: function( event, ui ) {
<script>window[test](ui.item.value)</script>;
}
...
</script>
Which is not correct (you don't need script tags within script tags; as you've seen it doesn't do anything but cause problems).
If you want to execute some PHP when the selection changes, you have to make another call to the server, via AJAX, submitting a form, or whatever. Something like this might be more like what you want:
select: function(event, ui) {
// send the selected value to the server for processing
$.get("processChange.php", {value: ui.item.value});
}
See the JQuery docs on $.get() for more on that.
On the other hand, if all you're trying to do is call another client-side javascript function (test, for example) with the selected value, you don't need PHP to echo anything. This ought to do the trick:
<script>
function test(args) {
// ...
}
$("#dlr").autocomplete({
// ...
select: function(event, ui) {
test(ui.item.value);
}
}
</script>
You can use < and > just like in HTML. You can also use the replace() function to find all the < and > and replace them.
I want to display the image actual view when the mouse is over the thumb sized image. But when the mouse is placed over the first image it appears and then disappears, not the case with the second and following images.
It works perfectly fine in Internet Explorer, but not in Firefox or Chrome.
$file - runs displays all the files in a directory
$id_v - is a simple count on the number of files
$path1 - is the path
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#view').hide();
$('#ig<? echo $id_v; ?>').bind('mouseover', function(ev) {
$('#view').slideDown();
$("#view1").attr({ src: "<? echo $path1.'/'.$file?>" });
});
$('#ig<? echo $id_v; ?>').bind('mouseout', function(ev){
$('#view').slideUp();
});
});
</script>
Please note, my interpretation of your HTML may be completely wrong. Please post all relevant code with your questions. --help us, help you. :op
Please also note (in case you were unaware) that you can edit your question to update with relevant info.
Can't say for sure without seeing HTML, but consider the following:
$('#view').hide();
Here 'view' is an id. IDs must be unique. You can't have them assigned to more than one element.
I'm assuming each item that you want to animate is getting id='view' in your HTML, when you should be doing class='view' in HTML with the following in your javascript:
$('.view').hide()
etc...
Give that a try.
It's hard to tell (for me) without live example...
Did you try to :
preload you images (with css
technique or with preload jQuery
plugin) ?
change mouseover/mouseout by
mouseenter/mouseleave ?
Just for information, in jQuery 1.4, you could use multiple events.
So your code could be rewritten like this :
$('#ig<? echo $id_v; ?>').bind({
mouseover: function() {
$('#view').slideDown();
$("#view1").attr({ src: "<? echo $path1.'/'.$file?>" });
},
mouseout: function() {
$('#view').slideUp();
}
});
I would suggest using the hover method instead of the mouseover and mouseout:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$('#view').hide();
$('#ig<? echo $id_v; ?>').bind('hover',
// over
function() {
$('#view').slideDown();
$("#view1").attr({ src: "<? echo $path1.'/'.$file?>" });
},
// out
function() {
$('#view').slideUp();
}
);
});
</script>
I would also suggest (to make your life a little easier), instead of binding new methods to each new id, just assign a class to each one of them and use
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$('#view').hide();
$('.some-class').hover(
// over
function() {
$('#view').slideDown();
$("#view1").attr({ src: "<? echo $path1.'/'.$file?>" });
},
// out
function() {
$('#view').slideUp();
}
);
});
</script>
There could be a lot of things.
If the image #view is fixed or is showed over the position of the thumbnail it will fire a mouseout in the thumbnail at the moment you show up.
Another thing that may cause that the #view hide instantaneously is that the element #view modifies the position of the whole document, if it is on the top or something like that.
Try to remove the mouseout bind and load the page with Internet Explorer and look how the document is modified.
