Making jquery plugins work after an Ajax call

Question

It's gonna be a long post, but I really had enough of trying to fix this. I'm really looking for some help solving my case.

First:

fade.js :

$(document).ready(function(){
$(".gallery ul li img.a").fadeTo("slow", 0.5); // This sets the opacity of the thumbs to fade down to 30% when the page loads
$(".gallery ul li img.a").hover(function(){
    $(this).fadeTo("slow", 1.0); // This should set the opacity to 100% on hover
},function(){
    $(this).fadeTo("slow", 0.5); // This should set the opacity back to 30% on mouseout
});
});

The problem here is after the ajax call of the next page, the fade stops working. So what I did is

$(document).ready(function(){
$(".gallery ul li img.a").fadeTo("slow", 0.5); // This sets the opacity of the thumbs to fade down to 30% when the page loads
$(".gallery ul li img.a").live("hover", function(){
    $(this).fadeTo("slow", 1.0); // This should set the opacity to 100% on hover
},function(){
    $(this).fadeTo("slow", 0.5); // This should set the opacity back to 30% on mouseout
    });
});

But this will only work when I hover over the image then the image will fade out. If I do the same for $(".gallery ul li img.a").fadeTo to .live(...) nothing happens, it simply doesn't work.

• how can make this work even after an ajax call, which is supposed to fadeto when it loads then fadeout when i hover over it.

Second:

I have a small slider that slides up on the image, slider.js :

$(document).ready(function(){
    //To switch directions up/down and left/right just place a "-" in front of the top/left attribute
//Full Caption Sliding (Hidden to Visible)
        $('.gallery li').hover(function(){
            $(".cover", this).stop().animate({top:'106px'},{queue:false,duration:160});
        }, function() {
            $(".cover", this).stop().animate({top:'153px'},{queue:false,duration:160});
        });
    });

I changed $('.gallery li').hover(...) to $('.gallery li').live("hover", function(){...}) but still it didn't work. Also I used .on instead of .live because it's deprecated.

What am I doing wrong ? I'm not a client side dude, most of my work is server side. I just need to make these 2 plugins work after the AJAX call happens.

Ajax:

@dajaxice_register
def gallerypages(request, p):

try:
    page = int(p)
except:
    page = 1

items = gallerylist(page)
html = render_to_string('gallery_content.html',
                                {'items': items,}, 
                                context_instance = RequestContext(request))

dajax = Dajax()
dajax.assign('#gallery-content', 'innerHTML', html)
return dajax.json()

Edit2:

<a href="#" onclick="Dajaxice.gallery.gallerypages(Dajax.process, {'p': {{ items.previous_page_number }},})" class="btn_prev"><b>&lt;</b></a>

and

$(document).on("keydown", "#pagenumber", function(e)
    if ( e.which === 13 ) {
    Dajaxice.gallery.gallerypages(Dajax.process, {'p': this.value});
}});

Answer 1

You were headed in the right direction with live , but live is depreciated for the on event. With on , you can include the selector as one of the arguments. The initial jQuery selector is only the container of the objects you want to add handlers to.

<div id="content">
    <div class="sombutton"></div>
</div>

$( document ).ready( function() {
   $( '#content' ).on( 'click', '.somebutton', function() {
      alert( 'do something' );
   } );
} );

Now even if we replace the content within the #conent div, newly added content with the class .somebutton will also have a click handler attached.

I'm not sure, but test this stuff:

JavaScript via jQuery

var initFade = function() {
    $(".gallery ul li img.a").fadeTo("slow", 0.5);
}

// your custom callback method
var reBindStuffs = function(data) {
    Dajax.process(data);
    // rebind your jquery event handlers here... e.g.
    initFade();
};

$(document).ready(function(){

    // initial first time loaded fade
    initFade();

    // hover live binder
    $(".gallery ul li img.a").live("hover", function(){
        $(this).fadeTo("slow", 1.0);
    },function(){
        $(this).fadeTo("slow", 0.5);
    });

    // document keydown listener 
    $(document).on("keydown", "#pagenumber", function(e)
        if ( e.which === 13 ) {
        Dajaxice.gallery.gallerypages('reBindStuffs', {'p': this.value});
    }});
});

HTML

<!-- a click listener -->
<a href="#" onclick="Dajaxice.gallery.gallerypages(reBindStuffs, {'p': {{ items.previous_page_number }},})" class="btn_prev"><b>&lt;</b></a>

What you mention is a big problem, I refresh by hand. But I also use the .ajaxcomplete functionality. It runs every after every Ajax query

$(document).ajaxComplete(function(){ 
    // Carga tabs por defecto por clases.
    if (typeof jQuery.fn.wf_responsivetab == 'function')
    {
        if ($('#rbtt_1').length)
        {
            $('#rbtt_1').wf_responsivetab({text: '...',});
            $(window).on('resize', function() {$('#rbtt_1').wf_responsivetab({text: '...',});});
        }
    }
});
