Meaning of a syntax in jQuery

12-Aug-11 2:32

Position the image appropriately and set it to hidden initially. Then on the timer just show it.

<div id='imageContainer'>
 <img id='myImage' src='...' />
</div>

#imageContainer
{
  add appropriate css
}

$(document).ready(function()
{
   $("#myImage").hide(); 
});
setTimeout(function(){ $("#myImage").show() });

If you know at page construction time where it should go, just position it in the HTML and only unhide it in the timeout, as Mark says.

If not, look up the position of the target control and do some arithmetic to position your image appropriately relative to it.

Either way, it is an overlay so you want to use position:absolute and the top and left (or right) CSS properties, not try a hack with hspace/vspace.

Hi all,

I have found a jQuery sample, and found the following syntax. But I have no idea about what it is really doing. Can anyone of you comment on it?

JavaScript

var items       = $("#" + element[0].id + "Content ." + element[0].id + "Image");

Thanks in advance

I appreciate your help all the time...

It is trying to form a selector such as

"#myElementContent .myElementImage"

Honestly, if you can't interrupt this you are going to have a great deal of difficulty in this career.

This is a beginners task and one should know how to interpret it. It is well documented.

As somebody who just started playing with jQuery as a way to solve a particular cross-domain scripting problem, I think well documented might be pushing it. It's documented.

Mark got it almost right except that there is a space after content.
"#myElementContent .myElementImage"

This selector will select all elements that have their id attribute set to myElementContent and have an entry of myElementImage in their class attribute. This will be so if element[0].id == "myElement".

You might also find this an interesting read: http://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/[^].

Cheers!

Get full path for file from Firefox

I have a control like this:

HTML

<input type="file" value="Open File" id="openfile"/>

and I need the full path for the selected file. In IE, I can get this, but in Firefox it returns only the filename part. Is there a way to get the full path?

I know somebody gonna say I don't need it to upload a file, but I'm not uploading a file to a remote server and I really do need the local path. My page is passing the local path to a locally running self-hosted WCF server that then passes the path to another application with will actually load the file. Without the full path, the application will treat the path as relative to whatever its current directory is, which obviously fails most of the time.

Thanks for the reply, but I think that is trying to do the opposite of what I'm trying to do. Your links are looking to remove the path from IE so that you have only the filename. I want to do the opposite, get the path in Firefox.

Some of the stuff that interacts with the DOM, window, document and events are handled differently from browser to browser. You could build browser switches into your code to handle each situation differently for each browser you intend to support. You could just as well resort to a crossbrowser compatible javascript framework like jQuery[^] for instance which is my favorite.

On the following site you can find a list of the more or less well known Javascript Crossbrowser Frameworks/Libraries[^].

Hi Manfred,
I work with the EXT JS Framework, but some instructions differ from browser to browser.So if i develop a version of my application for each browser, that will be sooooo expensive in the two sides time and code.
