I'm working on a web-application and I use jQuery UI with tabs and accordions and qTip2 (with tooltips).
I'm trying to create a "help" function that would toggle the display of all visible tooltips - and when the user change tab or accordion, then the tooltips should update based on which tooltips that should be visible.
I've created a simple js-fiddle example that illustrates the problem pretty well.
HTML:
<div id="mainDiv">
<div id="mapContainer">
<div id="simple_map" style="display: inline-block">
<p title='MapTitle' data-qtip2Enabled>Place map here</p>
</div>
</div>
<button type="button" id="ShowHelp">Show all help messages</button>
<div id="tabs">
<ul>
<li><a href="#queryTab">Search</a>
</li>
<li><a href="#parametersTab">Search results</a>
</li>
</ul>
<div id="queryTab">
<div id='search'>
<p>Options</p>
<div id='queryOptions'>
<h3>
<span id='option1' title='This is option 1' data-qtip2Enabled>Option 1</span>
</h3>
<div id='option1Div'> <a title="another title" data-qtip2Enabled>Some text</a>
</div>
<h3>
<span id='option2' title='This is option 2' data-qtip2Enabled>Option 2</span>
</h3>
<div id='option2Div' title="Some Title" style="display: inline-block" data-qtip2Enabled>LaLaLaLALA</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="parametersTab">
<div id="parametersTabText">Text.
<br>
<p title='lorum ipsum' data-qtip2Enabled>More text with tooltip.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- this div is a pop, and don't actually appear -->
<div id="errorMessageDialog" title="Warning" hidden>this is not a qtip-title (with tag data-qtip2Enabled)</div>
</div>
Javascript:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#tabs").tabs();
$('#ShowHelp').click(toggleHelp);
$("#queryOptions").accordion({
collapsible: true,
active: false,
heightStyle: "content"
});
$('[data-qtip2Enabled]').qtip();
});
var helpEnabled = false;
function enableHelp() {
unbindHelp();
$("DIV#tabs li").on("click", function () {
showHelp();
});
$("DIV#search span").on("click", function () {
showHelp();
});
helpEnabled = true;
}
function unbindHelp() {
$("DIV#tabs li").unbind("click");
$("DIV#search span").unbind("click");
}
function toggleHelp() {
if (!helpEnabled) showHelp();
else {
helpEnabled = false;
unbindHelp();
//$('[data-qtip2Enabled]').qtip('destroy');
$(".qtip-content").hide();
$('[data-qtip2Enabled]').qtip({
show: 'mouseenter',
hide: 'mouseleave',
});
}
}
function showHelp() {
if (!helpEnabled) enableHelp();
$(".qtip-content").hide();
$('[data-qtip2Enabled]').each(function () {
$(this).qtip({
show: true,
hide: false,
events: {
focus: function (event, api) {
api.set('position.adjust.y', -5);
},
blur: function (event, api) {
api.set('position.adjust.y', 0);
},
},
});
});
}
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated :)
Edit: Updated the code and fiddle based on some experiments and Rakesh Singh's answer.
I'm still wondering how to not display the tooltips that should be hidden - all tooltips are displayed now, but they are updated to the correct places when the UI changes.
Just put
$("DIV#tabs li").on("click",function(){ showHelp(); });
in jquery ready function.
i hope this will help.
