[jQuery] Dragable Limit
Is there a way to limit the number of divs that can be placed inside my droppable div? I haven't found it on the docs. I'm sure its simple, I just cannot find an answer. Thanks!
[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
Right but you can have to classes defined to one element, and thats
what is being done here. The statement does validate nonetheless, but
rather why this.css doesn't correctly reassign the background is what
i"m unsure of.

[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
what?
That statement checks to see if the element clicked has the class
of .btn px, I dont know what your saying, the statement there does
work correctly, its "\$(this).css({ backgroundColor:color }); " that
isnt modifying the css, thats where my problems are.

[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
It's being ran from perl, so when perl is parsing the print statement,
it thinks $~whatever is a perl variable. Which is strange, because
normally use strict; will bark at you, but instead perl finds a way to
find out what $~whatever is. Its kinda strange, so I have to escape
them server side, but client side they come out as normal $

[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
Here is the most recent code
http://pastie.org/376427
If I could only get "\$(this).css({ backgroundColor:color });" to
work, I would be happy? Please help me :D Thanks!

[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
\$(this).css({ backgroundColor:color }); never seem to fire, as far as
I know though, its valid jquery javascript...
As for the statement above "("input#color_code").val() " is whatever
the user selects from the color picker.
If anyone is questioning my \$ in my javascript, i have to do it this
way, because I'm running this with a Perl script, and perl uses $ to
define and use variables.

[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
Can someone tell me why my \$(this).css({ backgroundColor:color });
statement isn't changing as soon as the user clicks on a div?

[jQuery] Re: jQuery and Javascript timer question
I think i finally got it to work, changed all the setTimeout functions
to setInterval, now I just need to figure out why "\$(this).css
({ backgroundColor:color }); " isnt setting the color of the divs
instantly, as well as a new method call for .load (don't need to
reload everytime with client side color changes, and then finally I
need to tweet my timeout time. Thank you all for looking!

[jQuery] jQuery and Javascript timer question
What I'm trying to do is on click of a div spawn a
"timer" (setTimeout) which will run while the user is on the page, on
completion of the countedown of setTimeout, load a function to do a
submit. However in my testing the following code does not wait, and
submits the page event right away. Basically I want to be able to que
up the click events and then process them during an idle few seconds.
Check out my code below maybe you can help!
var pixelid = new Array();
var pixelcolors = new Array();
var processTimerId = 0;
var counter = 0;
\$('#result').click(function(e) {
if ( \$(e.target).is('.btn px') )
{
var color = \$("input#color_code").val();
\$(this).css({ backgroundColor:color });
var id_select = \$(e.target).parent('div').attr('id');
pixelid[counter] = id_select;
pixelcolors[counter] = color;
if (counter == 0)
{
//They have not clicked before, so we are ready to
start the
process timer
processTimerId = setTimeout (process_pixels(), 4000);
}
else
{
//They have clicked before, but apparently they clicked
again, stop
the timer and we will restart it.
clearTimeout( processTimerId );
processTimerId = setTimeout (process_pixels(), 4000);
}
counter++;
}
});
function process_pixels(){
var process_counter = 0;
while (process_counter <= counter)
{
\$("#result").load('/px_creator.pl', {colorselect: pixelcolors
[process_counter], id_select: pixelid[process_counter]});
process_counter++;
}
}
Example: http://pixelated.hertzelle.com/draw.pl
Can anyone tell me why my timer process doesnt work as I would want it
to? I still have more work to go...But this has me a bit stuck. Any
help would make me very happy, thanks!
