window.onresize发射两次

Question

I'm new to js. Please, don't kick painfully. I have this code

    window.onresize=function() {alert(1);};

When I resize any browser`s window, this function fires twice. Why? And how to rewrite this code that code will fire once.

Thanx in advance.

Answer 1

You need a timeout to bundle the resize events.

var res;
window.onresize=function() {
    if (res){clearTimeout(res)};
    res = setTimeout(function(){console.log("resize triggered");},100);
};

This event will fire multiple times in different browsers (some once you've finished the the resize, others during).

One way to get around this is to wait a certain amount of time (say half a second) after the event fires, to see if there are further updates. If not, you can proceed with the alert.

eg

var resizeTimer;
window.onresize = function(){
    if (resizeTimer){
        clearTimeout(resizeTimer);
    } 
    resizeTimer = setTimeout(function(){
        alert(1);
        }, 500);
};

See it work on this fiddle .

Answer 3

To prevent function from "firing" the same result more than once when user resize

var doc = document; //To access the dom only once
var cWidth = doc.body.clientWidth;
var newWidth = cWidth; //If you want a log to show at startup, change to: newWidth = 0
window.onresize = function (){
    newWidth = doc.body.clientWidth;
    if(cWidth != newWidth){
        cWidth = newWidth;
        console.log("clientWidth:", cWidth); //instead of alert(cWidth);
     };
};

I propose other solution because I don't like the timeouts,

   `var resized;
    window.onresize = function () {
        if(resized){
            resized = false;
        }
        else{
            resized = true;
            alert('resize');
        }
    };`
