I have a Kendo UI datepicker with placeholder data. Here is the HTML:
<input type="text" class="datepicker"' placeholder="yyyy-mm-dd" />
Here is the JavaScript:
var start = $(".datepicker").kendoDatePicker({
format: "yyyy-MM-dd",
parseFormats: ["MM/dd/yyyy"],
change: startChange
}).data("kendoDatePicker");
The Kendo UI datepicker displays the placeholder data in the same style as user entered data. I would like to style the placeholder data differently. Specifically, I would like the text to be gray and italicized. When user enters data, the style changes to solid black (non-italicized). Any thoughts on how to do this?
Well, placeholder is an HTML5 attibute and isn't specic to Kendo controls. As I understand it Kendo doesn't offer any support for placeholder over what is supported by the browser, and remember that only some browsers support this attribute; IE does not.
Anyway, to style the placeholder you'll have to use vendor prefix CSS properties, see here.
I use this..it will work on your HTML and you can style it too :)
<script>
// This adds 'placeholder' to the items listed in the jQuery .support object.
jQuery(function() {
jQuery.support.placeholder = false;
test = document.createElement('input');
if('placeholder' in test) jQuery.support.placeholder = true;
});
// This adds placeholder support to browsers that wouldn't otherwise support it.
$(function() {
if(!$.support.placeholder) {
var active = document.activeElement;
$(':text').focus(function () {
if ($(this).attr('placeholder') != '' && $(this).val() == $(this).attr('placeholder')) {
$(this).val('').removeClass('hasPlaceholder');
}
}).blur(function () {
if ($(this).attr('placeholder') != '' && ($(this).val() == '' || $(this).val() == $(this).attr('placeholder'))) {
$(this).val($(this).attr('placeholder')).addClass('hasPlaceholder');
}
});
$(':text').blur();
$(active).focus();
$('form:eq(0)').submit(function () {
$(':text.hasPlaceholder').val('');
});
}
});
</script>

I'd like to use fontawesome icons in SVG scope. I cannot achieve it in common way, but I can add <text> element containing corresponding UTF-8 char and with font set to fontawesome, like that:
<text style="font-family: FontAwesome;">\uf0ac</text>
To make it clear I wrote a switch for getting useful icons:
getFontAwesomeIcon(name) {
switch (name) {
case 'fa-globe':
return '\uf0ac'
case 'fa-lock':
return '\uf023'
case 'fa-users':
return '\uf0c0'
case 'fa-ellipsis-h':
return '\uf141'
default:
throw '# Wrong fontawesome icon name.'
}
}
But of course that's ugly, because I must write it myself im my code. How can I get these values just from fontawesome library?
You can avoid producing such a list and extract the information from the font-awesome stylesheet on the fly. Include the stylesheet and set the classes like usual, i. e.
<tspan class="fa fa-globe"></tspan>
and you can do the following:
var icons = document.querySelectorAll(".fa");
var stylesheet = Array.from(document.styleSheets).find(function (s) {
return s.href.endsWith("font-awesome.css");
});
var rules = Array.from(stylesheet.cssRules);
icons.forEach(function (icon) {
// extract the class name for the icon
var name = Array.from(icon.classList).find(function (c) {
return c.startsWith('fa-');
});
// get the ::before styles for that class
var style = rules.find(function (r) {
return r.selectorText && r.selectorText.endsWith(name + "::before");
}).style;
// insert the content into the element
// style.content returns '"\uf0ac"'
icon.textContent = style.content.substr(1,1);
});
My two answers for two approaches to the problem (both developed thanks to ccprog):
1. Setting char by class definition:
In that approach we can define element that way:
<text class="fa fa-globe"></text>
And next run that code:
var icons = document.querySelectorAll("text.fa");
// I want to modify only icons in SVG text elements
var stylesheets = Array.from(document.styleSheets);
// In my project FontAwesome styles are compiled with other file,
// so I search for rules in all CSS files
// Getting rules from stylesheets is slightly more complicated:
var rules = stylesheets.map(function(ss) {
return ss && ss.cssRules ? Array.from(ss.cssRules) : [];
})
rules = [].concat.apply([], rules);
// Rest the same:
icons.forEach(function (icon) {
var name = Array.from(icon.classList).find(function (c) {
return c.startsWith('fa-');
});
var style = rules.find(function (r) {
return r.selectorText && r.selectorText.endsWith(name + "::before");
}).style;
icon.textContent = style.content.substr(1,1);
});
But I had some problems with that approach, so I developed the second one.
2. Getting char with function:
const getFontAwesomeIconChar = (name) => {
var stylesheets = Array.from(document.styleSheets);
var rules = stylesheets.map(function(ss) {
return ss && ss.cssRules ? Array.from(ss.cssRules) : [];
})
rules = [].concat.apply([], rules);
var style = rules.find(function (r) {
return r.selectorText && r.selectorText.endsWith(name + "::before");
}).style;
return style.content.substr(1,1);
}
Having that funcion defined we can do something like this (example with React syntax):
<text>{getFontAwesomeIconChar('fa-globe')}</text>
I have two inputs.
I want the two inputs to have the same look and feel see below:
The first input use autocomplete and allows the user to select a list of terms => I use p:autocomplete (see Primefaces documentation on autocomplete)
This input works fine.
For the second input, I would like to have the same display but without any autocompletion : the user just enter a list of terms with no autocompletion at all.
I tried to have a fake autocomplete that return the value given by the user but it is too slow and the behaviour is not correct when the user quit the input.
Any idea is welcome.
After a quick look at the PrimeFaces javascript code of the autoComplete and a few hours experimenting with it, I came up with a solution. It involves overriding the bindKeyEvents and in it deciding to call the original one or not, adding detection for the space key ('selecting a tag') and when pressed, add the tag and fire the selectionEvent (if ajax is used). Place the following code in your page or in an external javascript file
<script>
//<![CDATA[
if(PrimeFaces.widget.AutoComplete) {
PrimeFaces.widget.AutoComplete = PrimeFaces.widget.AutoComplete.extend ( {
bindKeyEvents: function() {
if (this.input.attr('data-justTags')) {
var $this = this;
this.input.on('keyup.autoComplete', function(e) {
var keyCode = $.ui.keyCode,
key = e.which;
}).on('keydown.autoComplete', function(e) {
var keyCode = $.ui.keyCode;
$this.suppressInput = false;
switch(e.which) {
case keyCode.BACKSPACE:
if ($this.cfg.multiple && !$this.input.val().length) {
$this.removeItem(e, $(this).parent().prev());
e.preventDefault();
}
break;
case keyCode.SPACE:
if($this.cfg.multiple) {
var itemValue = $this.input.val();
var itemDisplayMarkup = '<li data-token-value="' +itemValue + '"class="ui-autocomplete-token ui-state-active ui-corner-all ui-helper-hidden">';
itemDisplayMarkup += '<span class="ui-autocomplete-token-icon ui-icon ui-icon-close" />';
itemDisplayMarkup += '<span class="ui-autocomplete-token-label">' + itemValue + '</span></li>';
$this.inputContainer.before(itemDisplayMarkup);
$this.multiItemContainer.children('.ui-helper-hidden').fadeIn();
$this.input.val('').focus();
$this.hinput.append('<option value="' + itemValue + '" selected="selected"></option>');
if($this.multiItemContainer.children('li.ui-autocomplete-token').length >= $this.cfg.selectLimit) {
$this.input.css('display', 'none').blur();
$this.disableDropdown();
}
$this.invokeItemSelectBehavior(e, itemValue);
}
break;
};
});
} else {
//console.log("Original bindEvents");
this._super();
}
}
});
}
//]]>
</script>
For deciding on when to call the original one or not, I decided to use a passThrough attribute with a data-justTags name. e.g. pt:data-justTags="true" (value does not matter, so pt:data-justTags="false" is identical to pt:data-justTags="true"). A small html snippet of this is:
<p:autoComplete pt:data-justTags="true" multiple="true" value="#{myBean.selectedValues}">
And do not forget to add the xmlns:pt="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/passthrough" namespace declaration.
I found a component that could do the job : http://www.butterfaces.org/tags.jsf
I've followed the samples. I added a _PjaxLayout:
<title>#ViewBag.Title</title>
#RenderBody()
Modified my _Layout:
<div id="shell">
#RenderBody()
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
// pjax
$.pjax.defaults.timeout = 5000;
$('a').pjax('#shell');
})
</script>
Updated ViewStart:
#{
if (Request.Headers["X-PJAX"] != null) {
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_PjaxLayout.cshtml";
} else {
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
}
Yet every time I click on an 'a' tag, the pjax code doesn't get called. It's as if the selector isn't working when I set up pjax. What am I doing wrong?
UPDATE:
If I do this:
$('document').ready(function () {
$('a').pjax({
container: '#shell',
timeout: 5000
});
});
I see the pjax code getting hit and the Request headers get updated, and the new content loads on the page, but the styling and layout get really messed up and duplicated...
UPDATE:
Inspecting the DOM after this craziness happens reveals that the new page content is getting loaded directly into the anchor that I click, instead of into the element with id #shell. WTF?
You are using a legacy syntax, the new pjax uses the following:
$(document).pjax('a', '#shell', { fragment: '#shell' });
Also I am not familiar with the language you use, but in order to make pjax happen there has to be an HTML element with the id shell in your ViewStart.
As I am not sure about the syntax in that language, try something similar to this for testing:
#{
if (Request.Headers["X-PJAX"] != null) {
echo "<ul id="shell"> pjaaxxx </ul>"; // Would work in php, update syntax
} else {
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
}
I am not seeing that syntax as valid in the PJax documentation.
Are you sure you didn't mean $(document).pjax('a',{});?
$.pjax immediately executes from what I can tell.
I have this fiddle, and can not make this work. I believe that the reason resides in that two li elements with a custom directive edit-in-place share scope.
The solution would be to say to the directive to create a copy of the scope that binds on the parent - can transclude help?
angular.module('bla', [])
.directive('editInPlace', ['$parse','$compile', function($parse, $compile) {
return {
restrict: 'A',
scope: true,
link: function (scope, element, attribs) {
var inputStart = '<input style="border: 2 solid black" name="inPlaceInput" style="display:none" value="';
var inputEnd = '">';
scope.editModeAccessor = $parse(attribs.editInPlace);
scope.modelAccessor = $parse(attribs.ngBind);
scope.$watch(attribs.editInPlace, function(newValue, oldValue){
if (newValue){
console.debug("click");
console.debug("value: " + scope.modelAccessor(scope));
var inputHtml = inputStart + scope.modelAccessor(scope) + inputEnd;
element.after(inputHtml);
jQuery(element).hide();
scope.inputElement = jQuery("input[name=inPlaceInput]");
scope.inputElement.show();
scope.inputElement.focus();
scope.inputElement.bind("blur", function() {
blur();
});
} else {
blur();
}
});
function blur(){
console.debug("blur secondary");
if (scope.inputElement){
console.debug("blur secondary inputElement found");
var value = scope.inputElement.val();
console.debug("input value: "+ value);
scope.inputElement.remove();
jQuery(element).show();
scope.editModeAccessor.assign(scope, false);
scope.modelAccessor.assign(scope, value);
}
}
}
}
}]);
function ContactsCtrl($scope, $timeout){
$scope.contacts = [{number:'+25480989333', name:'sharon'},{number:'+42079872232', name:''}];
$scope.editMode = false;
var editedId;
$scope.edit = function(id){
$scope.editMode = true;
jQuery("#"+id).hide();
editedId = id;
//TODO show delete button
}
$scope.$watch('editMode', function(newValue, oldValue){
if (!newValue && editedId){
jQuery("#"+editedId).show();
}
});
}
<div ng-app="bla">
<div ng-controller="ContactsCtrl">
<h4>Contacts</h4>
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="contact in contacts">
<span edit-in-place="editMode" ng-bind="contact.number"></span>
<span edit-in-place="editMode" ng-bind="contact.name"></span>
<span id="{{$index}}" ng-click="edit($index)"><i class="icon-edit">CLICKtoEDIT</i></span>
</li>
</ul>
</div></div>
I think cloning the scope is not the best solution.
When creating a directive in angular, you should encapsulate all the functionality within the directive. You should also avoid mixing jQuery in when you don't have to. Most of the time (as in this case) you're just introducing unnecessary complexity. Lastly, classes are the best way of controlling display, rather than the style attribute on an element.
I took the liberty of rewriting your directive in a more "angular" way - with no jQuery. As you can see from the updated jsFiddle, it is simpler and cleaner. Also, it works!
This directive can be easily modified to add lots of additional awesome functionality.
app.directive( 'editInPlace', function() {
return {
restrict: 'E',
scope: { value: '=' },
template: '<span ng-click="edit()" ng-bind="value"></span><input ng-model="value"></input>',
link: function ( $scope, element, attrs ) {
// Let's get a reference to the input element, as we'll want to reference it.
var inputElement = angular.element( element.children()[1] );
// This directive should have a set class so we can style it.
element.addClass( 'edit-in-place' );
// Initially, we're not editing.
$scope.editing = false;
// ng-click handler to activate edit-in-place
$scope.edit = function () {
$scope.editing = true;
// We control display through a class on the directive itself. See the CSS.
element.addClass( 'active' );
// And we must focus the element.
// `angular.element()` provides a chainable array, like jQuery so to access a native DOM function,
// we have to reference the first element in the array.
inputElement[0].focus();
};
// When we leave the input, we're done editing.
inputElement.prop( 'onblur', function() {
$scope.editing = false;
element.removeClass( 'active' );
});
}
};
});
The WebBrowser control has a property called "IsWebBrowserContextMenuEnabled" that disables all ability to right-click on a web page and see a context menu. This is very close to what I want (I don't want anyone to be able to right-click and print, hit back, hit properties, view source, etc).
The only problem is this also disables the context menu that appears in TextBoxes for copy/paste, etc.
To make this clearer, this is what I don't want:
This is what I do want:
I would like to disable the main context menu, but allow the one that appears in TextBoxes. Anyone know how I would do that? The WebBrowser.Document.ContextMenuShowing event looks promising, but doesn't seem to properly identify the element the user is right-clicking on, either through the HtmlElementEventArgs parameter's "FromElement" and "ToElement" properties, nor is the sender anything but the HtmlDocument element.
Thanks in advance!
have you considered writing your own context menu in javascript? Just listen to the user right clicking on the body, then show your menu with copy and paste commands (hint: element.style.display = "block|none"). To copy, execute the following code:
CopiedTxt = document.selection.createRange();
CopiedTxt.execCommand("Copy");
And to paste:
CopiedTxt = document.selection.createRange();
CopiedTxt.execCommand("Paste");

NOTE: This only works in IE (which is fine for your application).
I know its not bulletproof by any means, but here is a code sample that should get you started:
<html>
<head>
<script type = "text/javascript">
var lastForm = null;
window.onload = function(){
var menu = document.getElementById("ContextMenu");
var cpy = document.getElementById("CopyBtn");
var pst = document.getElementById("PasteBtn");
document.body.onmouseup = function(){
if (event.button == 2)
{
menu.style.left = event.clientX + "px";
menu.style.top = event.clientY + "px";
menu.style.display = "block";
return true;
}
menu.style.display = "none";
};
cpy.onclick = function(){
copy = document.selection.createRange();
copy.execCommand("Copy");
return false;
};
pst.onclick = function(){
if (lastForm)
{
copy = lastForm.createTextRange();
copy.execCommand("Paste");
}
return false;
};
};
</script>
</head>
<body oncontextmenu = "return false;">
<div id = "ContextMenu" style = "display : none; background: #fff; border: 1px solid #aaa; position: absolute;
width : 75px;">
Copy
Paste
</div>
sadgjghdskjghksghkds
<input type = "text" onfocus = "lastForm = this;" />
</body>
</html>
//Start:
function cutomizedcontextmenu(e)
{
var target = window.event ? window.event.srcElement : e ? e.target : null;
if( navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("msie") != -1 )
{
if (target.type != "text" && target.type != "textarea" && target.type != "password")
{
alert(message);
return false;
}
return true;
}
else if( navigator.product == "Gecko" )
{
alert(message);
return false;
}
}
document.oncontextmenu = cutomizedcontextmenu;
//End:
I hope this will help you Anderson Imes
A quick look at the MSDN documentation shows that none of the mouse events (click, button down/up etc) are supported to be used in your program. I'm afraid its either or: Either disable conetxt menus, or allow them.
If you disable them, the user can still copy & paste using keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V). Maybe that gives you the functionality you need.
We ended up using a combination of both of the above comments. Closer to the second, which is why I gave him credit.
There is a way to replace the context menu on both the client-side web code as well as through winforms, which is the approach we took. I really didn't want to rewrite the context menu, but this seems to have given us the right mix of control.
