Introduction to JavaScript



Introduction to JavaScript‣ Script blocks

‣Quotes and Whitespace

‣Variables

‣ Functions

‣Object-Hash

‣Objects



Script Blocks‣ Scripts can be included inline

‣<script type=”text/javascript”> // Your script here</script>

‣Or externally

‣<script src=”url-to-script.js” type=”text/javascript”></script>



Quotes & Whitespace// Single Quotesvar name = ‘John’;

// Double Quotesvar name = “John”;

// Whitespacevar name = ‘John’;

// Terminate statements with a semi colon;// Will work, but bad practice!var name = ‘John’



Variables‣Variable names may include a-zA-Z0-9_$ as valid characters

‣Variable scope is applied through the use of the var keyword

‣Variables have type:

‣object, number, string, boolean

‣array(object), function(object)



Variables// Stringvar name = ‘John’;

// Integer(number)var age = 30;

// Arrayvar children = [‘Jane’, ‘Jimmy’];

// Booleanvar isMarried = true;



Functionsfunction alertName() { alert(‘Hello John’);}

// Accept argumentsfunction alertName(name) { alert(‘Hello ‘ + name);}

// Call the functionalertName(‘John’); //Hello John



Functions// Function assignmentvar alertName = function(name) { alert(‘Hello ‘ + name);}

// Call the functionalertName(‘John’); //Hello John



Variable Scopevar name = ‘John’;

function myFunction() { alert(‘Name is: ‘ + name);}

...

myFunction(); //Name is John



Variable Scopevar name = ‘John’;

function myFunction() { var name = ‘Jim’; alert(‘Name is: ‘ + name);}



Object-hash (Object Literal)// Empty objectvar person = {};

// Object-hash may contain key/valuesvar person = { name: ‘John’, age: 30, children: [‘Jane’, ‘Jimmy’], isMarried: true};



Objectvar person = { name: ‘John’, age: 30, introduceYourself: function() { alert(this.name + ‘ is ‘ + this.age); }};

person.introduceYourself(); //John is 30



Lifecycle of a Page



Lifecycle of a Page‣ Initial HTTP Request

‣ Load Scripts, Stylesheets and Images

‣ Scripts block!

‣Head first style, scripts later



Page Load<!doctype html><html><head> <link href=”style.css” rel=”stylesheet” /> <script src=”jquery-1.4.2.js”></script> <script type=”text/javascript”> $(‘p’).css(‘color’, ‘red’); //magic </script></head> <body> <p>Hello world!</p></body></html>



DOM Ready// Callback functionfunction domIsReady() { $(‘body’).append(‘Hello world’); //magic}

$(document).ready(domIsReady);



Page Load<!doctype html><html><head> <link href=”style.css” rel=”stylesheet” /> <script src=”jquery-1.4.2.js”></script> <script type=”text/javascript”> function domIsReady() { $(‘p’).css(‘color’, ‘red’); //magic } $(document).ready(domIsReady); </script></head> <body> <p>Hello world!</p></body></html>



Page Load<!doctype html><html><head> <link href=”style.css” rel=”stylesheet” /></head><body><p>Hello world!</p><script src=”jquery-1.4.2.js”></script> <script type=”text/javascript”> $(‘p’).css(‘color’, ‘red’); //magic </script></body></html>

jQuery and Selectors



‣ Selectors

‣Compound Selectors

‣ Selecting by the API

‣The Context Argument

jQuery and Selectors



Selectors// Select By ID

<div id=”foo”></div><div></div>

$(‘#foo’);

<div id=”foo”></div><div></div>



Selectors// Select by class

<div class=”myClass foo bar”></div><div class=”baz myClass”></div><div class=”bar”></div>

$(‘.myClass’)

<div class=”myClass foo bar”></div><div class=”baz myClass”></div><div class=”bar”></div>



Selectors// Select by tag<ul><li>Apple</li><li>Pear</li></ul>

$(“li”);

<ul><li>Apple</li><li>Pear</li></ul>



Compound Selectors<p class=”important”></p><p></p><p class=”warning”></p><p class=”important warning”></p>

$(‘p.important,p.warning’);

<p class=”important”></p><p></p><p class=”warning”></p><p class=”important warning”></p>



Compound Selectors‣As of 1.4+ elements are always returned in document order



Select By Relationship



Select By Relationship// Children by method<ul><li>Fork</li><li>Spoon</li></ul>

$(“ul”).children();

<ul><li>Fork</li><li>Spoon</li></ul>



Select By Relationship// Children by selector<ul><li>Fork</li><li>Spoon</li></ul>

$(“ul > li”);

<ul><li>Fork</li><li>Spoon</li></ul>



Select By Relationship// Siblings by method<div><a href=’#’>link</a><p>Lorem Ipsum</p></div>

<div><a href=’#’>another link</a><p>Lorem Ipsum</p></div>

$(‘a’).siblings();



Select By Relationship// Siblings by method<div><a href=’#’>link</a><p>Lorem Ipsum</p></div>




Select By Relationship// Parent by method<div><a href=’#’>link</a><p>Lorem Ipsum</p></div>


$(‘a’).parent();



Select By Relationship// Parent result

<div><a href=’#’>link</a><p>Lorem Ipsum</p></div>




Select By Relationship// Descendant by method<ul><li>Fork <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li><li>Spoon <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li></ul>

$(“ul”).find(‘a’); //selector within find method

<ul><li>Fork <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li><li>Spoon <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li></ul>



Select By Relationship// Descendant by selector<ul><li>Fork <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li><li>Spoon <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li></ul>

$(“ul a”);

<ul><li>Fork <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li><li>Spoon <a href=’#’>Click to use</a></li></ul>



Selector Pitfalls//Over selection$(‘div#myId’); vs. $(‘#myId’);

//Under selection$(‘.randomClass’); vs. $(‘div.randomClass’);



The Context//Entire Document$(‘div’)

//Scope your selector//$(‘selector’, <context>)$(‘#table’).find(‘selector’)

$(‘a’).click(function() { $(‘span’, this)...});



The Context‣Two different scoping methods

‣$(‘selector’, this)

‣$(this).find(‘selector’)

‣Can access context with the context property

‣1.3 and later



Context Pitfallsvar $mySelection = $(‘selector’, ‘#myid’);var $mySelection.context = ?

var $mySelection2 = $(‘selector’, $(‘#myid’)[0]);var $mySelection2.context = ?

jQuery Collections (Buckets) $(‘body’) [body]

.find(‘p’) [p, p, p] => [body]

.find(‘a’) [a, a] => [p, p, p] => [body]

.addClass(‘foo’)

.end() [p, p, p] => [body]

.end() [body]



Method Chaining$(‘tr’) .filter(‘:odd’) .addClass(‘odd’) .end() .find(‘td.company’) .addClass(‘companyName’);



Finding vs. Filtering



Finding Elements$(‘body’) [body]

.find(‘p’) [p, p, p] => [body]

.find(‘a’) [a, a] => [p, p, p] => [body]

.addClass(‘foo’)

.end() [p, p, p] => [body]

.end() [body]



Filtering Elements$(‘a’) [a, a.foo, a]

.filter(‘.foo’) [a.foo] => [a, a.foo, a]

.attr(‘href’, ‘http://appendto.com’)

.end() [a, a.foo, a]

http://appendto.com

http://appendto.com



Find vs. Filter‣find() searches the DOM for descendants of elements in the current jQuery

wrapped collection

‣filter() searches the current jQuery collection and returns a reduced set (sub set)

jQuery and DOM Manipulation



Creating Elements



Creating Elements$(‘<div></div>’);

// Creates ...<div></div>

var ul = $(‘<ul><li>Hello</li></ul>’);

// Creates ...<ul> <li>Hello</li></ul>



Creating Elements// New in 1.4$("<div/>", { class: "test", text: "Click me!", click: function(){ $(this).toggleClass("test"); }});

// Clicking toggles the class<div class=”test”>Click me!</div>



Inserting Elements



Inserting Elements// Before<p>Apple</p><p>Orange</p>

$(‘p’).after(‘<img src=”logo.png” />’);

// After<p>Apple</p><img src=”logo.png /><p>Orange</p><img src=”logo.png />



Inserting Elements// Before<p>Apple</p><p>Orange</p>

$(‘p’).before(‘<img src=”logo.png” />’);

// After<img src=”logo.png” /><p>Apple</p><img src=”logo.png” /><p>Orange</p>



Inserting Elements// Before<p id=”apple”>Apple</p><p id=”orange”>Orange</p>

$(‘#apple’).prepend(‘<img src=”apple.png” />’);$(‘#orange’).append(‘<img src=”orange.png” />’);

// After<p id=”apple”><img src=”apple.png” />Apple</p><p id=”orange”>Orange<img src=”orange.png” /></p>



// Before<p id=”apple”>Apple</p><p id=”orange”>Orange</p>

$(‘<img src=”apple.png” />’).prependTo(‘#apple’);$(‘<img src=”orange.png” />’).appendTo(‘#orange’);

// After<p id=”apple”><img src=”apple.png” />Apple</p><p id=”orange”>Orange<img src=”orange.png” /></p>



Element Creation Best Practice//Use object literal syntax for single (non-nested) element creation

//If creating nested elements use a single string //yes$(‘<div><a href=”url”>link text</a></div>’) .appendTo(‘body’);

//slower$(‘<a href=”url”>link text</a>’) .appendTo(‘<div>’) .appendTo(‘body’);



Removing Elements



Removing Elements// Before<div> <p>Red</p> <p>Green</p></div>

// Removing Elements Directly$(‘p’).remove();

// After<div></div>



Empty Elements// Before<div> <p><em>Red</em></p> <p><em>Green</em></p></div>

$(‘p’).empty();// After<div> <p></p> <p></p></div>



Detaching Elements// Before<div id=”container”> <p>Foo Bar</p></div>

var $bucket = $(‘p’).detach();$bucket.insertAfter(‘#container’);

// After<div id=”container></div><p>Foo Bar</p>

jQuery and Events



‣Binding Events

‣Binding Multiple Events

‣The Event Object

‣Event Namespacing

‣Event Propagation

jQuery and Events



Binding Events



jQuery Event Shortcuts// Binding an event$('a.tab').click(function(){ // event handling code $(this).css(‘color’, ‘red’);});

// Binding an event$('a.tab').mouseover(function(){ // event handling code $(this).css(‘color’, ‘red’);});



Common Types of Events‣ click, dblclick, mouseover, mouseout

‣mouseenter, mouseleave

‣ change, focus, blur

‣keydown, keyup, keypress

‣ scroll, resize



Hover Shortcut// mouseenter, mouseleave

$(‘li’).hover( function() { $(this).addClass(‘hover’); }, function() { $(this).removeClass(‘hover’); });



Hover Shortcut// mouseenter, mouseleave

$(‘li’) .bind(‘mouseenter’, function() { $(this).addClass(‘hover’); }) .bind(‘mouseleave’, function() { $(this).removeClass(‘hover’); });



Hover Shortcut// Optimal hover

$(‘li’) .hover(function(evt) { var add = evt.type == ‘mouseenter’; $(this).toggleClass(‘hover’, add); });



Hover Shortcut// Optimal hover

$(‘li’) .hover(function(evt) { $(this).toggleClass(‘hover’, evt.type == ‘mouseenter’); });

$(‘li’) .bind(‘mouseenter mouseleave’,fn);



Binding Events with .bind()// Binding an event

$('a.tab').bind('click',function(e){ // event handling code $(this).css(‘color’, ‘red’);});

// Unbinding an event

$('a.tab').unbind('click');



Binding Events// Bind an event to execute once

$('a.tab').one('click',function(e){ // event handling code $(this).css(‘color’,‘red’);});



Binding Multiple Events



Binding Multiple Events$(‘div’).bind(‘mouseover mouseout’, function(e) { if ( e.type == ‘mouseover’ ) { $(this).addClass('highlight'); } elseif ( e.type == ‘mouseout’ ) { $(this).removeClass('highlight'); } });

$(‘div’).unbind(‘mouseover mouseout’);$(‘div’).unbind();



Binding Multiple Events$('a.tab').hover( function(e){ $(this).addClass('highlight'); }, function(e){ $(this).removeClass('highlight'); });

// Unbind the hover event$(‘a.tab’).unbind('mouseenter mouseleave')



Binding Multiple Events// Arbitrary number of functions to execute cyclically on click

$('a.tab').toggle( function(){ $(this).css('color','red'); }, function(){ $(this).css('color','yellow'); }, function(){ $(this).css('color','green'); });



The Event Object



The Event Object‣Event Object Properties

typetimeStamp

targetrelatedTargetcurrentTarget

pageXpageY

dataresultwhich



The Event Object‣event.type

The name of the event (all lowercase)

‣event.targetThe element that the event originated at

‣event.pageX, event.pageYCoordinates in pixels of mouse position on page (not populated for key events)



Event Namespacing



Event Namespacing‣Tagging for event handlers

‣Added in jQuery 1.2namespace post - http://bit.ly/aCaFXS

‣ Simplifies unbinding of events



Binding Namespaced Events$(‘div’) .bind(‘click’, fn) .bind(‘click.foo’, fn) .bind(‘mouseover.foo’, fn);

// Unbind click.foo event$(‘div’).unbind(‘click.foo’);

// Unbind all .foo namespaced events// click.foo, mouseover.foo$(‘div’).unbind(‘.foo’);



Event Propagation



Event Propagation - Anchor Tag<div><p> <a href=”#”>Link</a></p></div>

$(‘div’).click(function() { alert(‘clicked div!’);});

$(‘a’).click(function() { alert(‘clicked!’);});



Event Propagation - Paragraph Tag<div><p> <a href=”#”>Link</a></p></div>





Event Propagation - Paragraph Tag<div><p> <a href=”#”>Link</a></p></div>

$(‘div’).click(function(evt) { // evt.target == a alert(‘clicked div!’);});




Event Propagation - Div Tag<div id=”navigation”><p> <a href=”#”>Link</a></p></div>

$(‘#navigation’).click(function(evt) { // evt.target == anchor tag alert(‘clicked div!’); // this = Reference to div DOM element $(this).addClass(‘active’);});

$(‘a’).click(function() { alert(‘clicked!’); });



Event Propagation - Stopping Prop.<div><p> <a href=”#”>Link</a></p></div>


$(‘a’).click(function() { alert(‘clicked!’); return false;});



Event Propagation - Stopping Prop.<div><p> <a href=”#”>Link</a></p></div>

$(‘div’).click(function() { alert(‘clicked div!’); });

$(‘a’).click(function(evt) { alert(‘clicked!’); evt.stopPropagation(); evt.preventDefault(); return false; // Same as two lines above});



Event Propagation - Returning FalseStop events from bubblingPrevent the default event action from occurring



Live Events



Live Events - Binding// Before<p>One</p>

// Code$(‘p’).live(‘click’,function() { alert(‘P Pressed’) });$(‘<p />’).text(‘Two’).appendTo(‘body’);

// After<p>One</p><p>Two</p>



Live Events - Unbinding// Remove with .die()$(‘p’).die();

// .die() also accepts an event type$(‘p’).die(‘click’);

// Namespace Example$(‘p’).die(‘click.one’);



Live Events - Namespacing// .live() performs just like .bind()$(‘p’).live(‘click dblclick’, function(e){ if(e.type == ‘click’) { ... }});

// .live() can take namespaced events$(‘p’).live(‘click.one’,function(e) { alert(‘Click.one’);});



Live and delegate//1.4+ - live events can be given a context$("table").each(function(){ $("td", this).live("hover", function(){ $(this).toggleClass("hover"); });});

//delegate is short hand method for this best//practice pattern$("table").delegate("td", "hover", function(){ $(this).toggleClass("hover");});



Triggering Events// HTML<p>One</p>

// Assign the event$(‘p’).live(‘click’,function() { alert(‘P Pressed’) });

// Trigger the event manually$(‘p’).trigger(‘click’);



Triggering Events// HTML<p>One</p>

// Assign the event$(‘p’).live(‘click’,function() { alert(‘P Pressed’) });

// Some Event types have shortcuts$(‘p’).click();



Event Parameters



Event Data - Event Object// HTML<p>One</p>

// Define the custom eventvar foo = ‘bar’;$(‘p’).bind(‘click’, {msg: foo}, function(evt){ alert(‘Parameter: ’+ evt.data.msg) });
