Disabling and greying out all the contents of a dojo grid - dojo

Well, my application requires me to disable the entire grid , on a button click.
I tried to use
var grid = dijit.byId('myGrid');
grid .set('disabled',true); , but it's not working.
I basically need to 'grey out' all the contents of the grid , so that the user cannot select any row. Thus, just changing the CSS doesn't help me.
Please reply.
Thanks,
Sonia

I actually don't know, but I have a rather ghastly way to do it myself. I create a partly transparent overlay over the grid when it's disabled.
So I'll have this CSS:
.gridOverlay {
position: absolute;
top: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0;
z-index: 99;
display: none;
background: rgba(0,0,0,0.02);
}
.disabledGrid { color: #DDD; }
.disabledGrid .gridOverlay { display: block; }
And my button's click event will be something like this:
dojo.connect(dojo.byId("btn"), "onclick", function()
{
//dojo.byId, not dijit.byId, to get the outer DOM node
var grid = dojo.byId("myGrid");
if(!dojo.query(".gridOverlay", grid).length)
{
dojo.create("div", {"class": "gridOverlay"}, grid);
}
dojo.toggleClass(grid, "disabledGrid");
});
Like I said, ghastly, but for my use it actually did the trick. YMMV :)

Secondary Navigation Links (Absolute and Relative positioning) (CSS)

All my secondary header navigation links can only go (top left, bottom left, top right, etc.).
Currently enabled as "top left", however I want two out of those four links to be "top right".
Current code works perfect, other than after the 75% resizing mark, the links discombobulate.
#media screen and (min-width: 800px)
{
a[href="/terms-of-use"]
{
position:absolute;
right:120px;
}
a[href="/privacy"]
{
position:absolute;
right:200px;
}
}
It has been said that using absolute positioning within flex-box will not work reliably. I'm going to guess that, because I was viewing your site in Firefox and Chrome and did not see the issue, that you are viewing your site in Safari, where the issue can be seen.
In any case, due to the above, I would recommend using Javascript in order to move the navigation items to the desired location. Then, add some additional CSS in order to get those newly-moved items to look like the others.
First, remove the CSS you've added that addresses those navigation items.
Then add this via site-wide Footer code injection:
<script>
(function() {
var targetLinks = document.querySelectorAll(".Header a[href='/terms-of-use'], .Header a[href='/privacy']");
var targetParent = document.querySelector(".Header-inner [data-nc-container='top-right']");
var i;
for (i=0; i<targetLinks.length; i++) {
targetParent.appendChild(targetLinks[i]);
}
})();
</script>
And finally, add this via the CSS Editor:
body:not(.tweak-header-secondary-nav-hover-style-button):not(.tweak-header-secondary-nav-inherit-styles) [data-nc-container='top-right'] .Header-nav-item {
margin: 0 .618em;
padding: .618em 0;
font-family: myriad-pro;
-webkit-flex-shrink: 0;
flex-shrink: 0;
}
[data-nc-base="header"] [data-nc-container="top-right"] [data-nc-element="cart"] {
padding-left: 33px;
}
[data-nc-container='top-left'] [href='/privacy'] {
display: none;
}
[data-nc-container='top-left'] [href='/terms-of-use'] {
display: none;
}

Inline-block line-wrap extra space

I've got an inline-block element that contains a very long word. When I resize the viewport until I reach the breakpoint of the text wrapping to the next line, I get a substantial amount of space. However, I would like the inline-block element to wrap immediately to the width of its contents.
I found it hard to explain exactly what's going on, so below an animated gif to illustrate my issue:
Upon resizing the viewport:
To be clear, the image above is me continuously resizing the viewport.
Does anybody know a way to achieve what I'd like? Even with CSS hyphenation the white-space still remains (which I don't want).
JSFiddle. Resize the frames to see what I mean.
div {
display: inline-block;
background-color: black;
color: white;
padding: 5px;
}
The inline-block indeed extends on resizing as your animation shows, so that it keeps place for the long word to go into that space again.
One simple solution would be to add text-align: justify, but I'm afraid it may not exactly be what you want (see demo).
Another one would be the use of media queries, as #Parody suggested, but you would have to know the dimentions of the containing div, and that would not be very scalable as you mentionned.
The word-break: break-all suggested by #yugi also works but causes the words to to collapse letter by letter, regardless of their length.
The only way to achieve the exact behavior is (as far as I know) to use javascript. For example, you would have to wrap your text into a span element inside the div, and then add something like this :
var paddingLeft = parseInt($('#foo').css('padding-left')),
paddingRight = parseInt($('#foo').css('padding-left')),
paddingTop = parseInt($('#foo').css('padding-top')),
paddingBottom = parseInt($('#foo').css('padding-Bottom')),
cloned = $('#foo span').clone(),
cloned_wrap = document.createElement('div');
$(cloned_wrap).css({
paddingLeft : paddingLeft,
paddingRight : paddingRight,
display : 'inline-block',
visibility: 'hidden',
float: 'left',
});
$(cloned_wrap).insertAfter('#foo');
cloned.appendTo(cloned_wrap);
$(window).on('resize', function(){
$('#foo').css('width', cloned.width() + 1);
$(cloned_wrap).css('margin-top',- $('#foo').height() - paddingTop - paddingBottom);
}).resize();
Please see the jsfiddle working demo. (← edited many times)
That's quite a lot of code, but it works ; )
(PS : I assumed jquery was available, if not, quite the same is achievable in pure JS)
I don't think this is possible only with CSS for the one element. The reason for your behavior is that the width of the element is still 100% of its container. The only way I could think to accomplish this is by doing something a little bit "creative"...try setting the style to inline so you get the shrink-wrap behavior, but to get around the background color issue, also put it in a container that shares the same background. That should work.
If im understanding you correctly you could use the #media type to decide what css to use depending on the width of the screen
here is an example of what i mean
#media(min-width:0px) and (max-width:200px){
div {
display: block;
background-color: black;
color: white;
padding: 5px;
}
}
#media (min-width:200px){
div {
display: inline-block;
background-color: black;
color: white;
padding: 5px;
}
}
I am still very appreciative of #lapin's answer (which I accepted and awarded bounty to), I found out after the fact that it didn't quite work on multiple elements next to each other (that has nothing to do with #lapin, I just didn't mention it in my original question as I thought it would be irrelevant information).
Anyway, I've come up with the following that works for me (assuming the elements it should be applied to are .title and .subtitle):
$('.title, .subtitle').each(function(i, el) {
var el = $(el),
inner = $(document.createElement('span')),
bar = $(document.createElement('span'));
inner.addClass('inner');
bar.addClass('bar');
el.wrapInner(inner)
.append(bar)
.css({
backgroundColor: 'transparent'
});
});
function shrinkWrap() {
$('.title, .subtitle').each(function(i, el) {
var el = $(el),
inner = $('.inner', el),
bar = $('.bar', el),
innerWidth = inner.width();
bar.css({
bottom: 0,
width: innerWidth + parseFloat(el.css('paddingLeft')) + parseFloat(el.css('paddingRight'))
});
});
}
shrinkWrap();
$(window).on('resize', function() {
shrinkWrap();
});
Basically what I do is:
put the text in an inner wrap element
create an additional absolutely-positioned background element
get the width of the inline inner wrap element
apply said width to the background element (plus padding and whatnot)
The CSS:
.title, .subtitle {
position: relative;
z-index: 500;
display: table;
padding-left: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
background-color: red;
}
.title .bar, .subtitle .bar {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
z-index: -10;
background-color: red;
}

How do I adjust the dojo BorderContainer layout to handle rotated buttons?

I'm trying to implement a navigation toolbar down the left side of my application with rotated buttons. When I rotate the buttons using css transform:rotate, border container still does all of its layout calculations as if the buttons were not rotated so they end up overlapping and in the wrong position vertically. Before I dig into understanding the dijit/layout/utils module well enough to solve this, I'm wondering if anyone already has a solution I'm just not seeing.
Thanks!
Fiddle here http://jsfiddle.net/eric_isakson/2bkKk/6/
JavaScript:
require(["dojo/_base/window", "dijit/Toolbar", "dijit/form/Button", "dijit/layout/BorderContainer"], function(win, Toolbar, Button, BorderContainer) {
var bc = new BorderContainer();
bc.placeAt(win.body(), "last");
var tb = new Toolbar({region: "leading"});
bc.addChild(tb);
var b1 = new Button({label: "button1"});
tb.addChild(b1);
var b2 = new Button({label: "button2"});
tb.addChild(b2);
bc.startup();
tb.startup();
b1.startup();
b2.startup();
});
CSS
html, body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
overflow:hidden;
}
.dijitBorderContainer {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.dijitButton {
transform:rotate(-90deg);
-ms-transform:rotate(-90deg); /* IE 9 */
-webkit-transform:rotate(-90deg); /* Safari and Chrome */
display: block;
}
Here is the desired appearance:
If i understand you right, you want your Buttons horizontal?
Then you only need to delete the rows for the rotation.
.dijitButton {
display: block;
}

is there a solution for position:fixed in old mobile browser

many old mobile brwoser do not support position:fixed, I tried writing a sloution myself,it works, but not smooth enough.
I googled, no luck for now.
so I would like to know if there is "smooth" solution for this, thanks.
i think it would be better to mention the browsers that you have problems with. for example I assume you have problems with IE6. I will try to answer your question according to my assumptions. So the 100% height on the body and html stuff is in case you want to do fixed positioning along the bottom edge of the browser window.
like so:
* { margin:0; padding:0; }
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
body #fixedElement {
position:fixed !important;
position: absolute; /*ie6 and above*/
top: 0;
right: 0;
}
#page-wrap {
width: 600px;
margin: 0 auto;
font: 16px/2 Georgia, Serif;
}
hope this will help please also check this site when having problems related to CSS

remove 'Processing' instead of hide

When we start sorting or other things datatables has option to show 'Process' message. All is fine , only when it hides 'Processing' there is still stay space where 'Processing' is placed. So html table jumping down when Processing showing then when data have been loaded Processing hidding but html table isn't jumping back up so there is stay visible place for it.
Question, how to make datatable to remove Processing tag instead of just hide. Thanks
EDIT. I add html code
<div id="search_table_processing" class="dataTables_processing" style="visibility: hidden;">Processing...<img alt="< <" src="/themes/third_party/linkedin_search/img/165.gif"></div>
Well drat, I just ran into this and had to dig into it myself.
In version 1.9.0 you can search for this snippet:
an[i].style.visibility = bShow ? "visible" : "hidden";
(Found after searching for visibility.)
In the minified version it's currently this (using the NuGet package):
c[d].style.visibility=b?"visible":"hidden";
The problem is we neglected to style .dataTables_processing, as per the sample CSS files. Here's what one of the samples has for styling:
.dataTables_processing {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 50%;
width: 250px;
margin-left: -125px;
border: 1px solid #ddd;
text-align: center;
color: #999;
font-size: 11px;
padding: 2px 0;
}
Once it's styled (or bProcessing is set to false), there shouldn't be an issue.
If you're comfortable changing the functionality of the plug-in (if you think you can remember to change it back), then you could switch it to use display instead of visibility.
In case you are using Internationalisation - "oLanguage" attribute in your datatables constructor
replace the old sProcessing value with this in your localization file in order to place a custom image while processing :
"sProcessing": "<img src='/themes/third_party/linkedin_search/img/165.gif'/>",
and here is how you link your datatables to a localization file (which can be downloaded from the datatables website Internationalisation of datatables)
.
.
.
"oLanguage": {
"sUrl": "../../jQuery/dataTables/media/MyLanguageFilesFolder/en_US.txt"
}
.
.
.
If you not using the Internationalisation of datatables you can always set the "sProcessing" value with the suggested above...
here an example :
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#example').dataTable( {
"oLanguage": {
"sProcessing": "<img src='/themes/third_party/linkedin_search/img/165.gif'>"
}
} );
} );
Changing
an[i].style.visibility = bShow ? "visible" : "hidden";
to
an[i].style.display = bShow ? "block" : "none";
didn't work for me. However, I accomplished it by changing the statement to
if (bShow == false) {
an[i].style.display = "none";
}
else {
an[i].style.display = "block";
}
Hope this helps anyone who doesn't want to add any css code and just go right to the source!
For the Datatables version 1.9.4, just edit the file jquery.dataTables.js line 3005, and change the following:
an[i].style.visibility = bShow ? "visible" : "hidden";"block" : "none";
to
an[i].style.display = bShow ?
Worked for me!
If you want the text to go away while the backdrop should be there, why not just add:
div.dataTables_processing{ color: transparent; }
