I get duplicate ids when I set the views like so in my render function
var template = _.template($("#user-login-template").html(), {});
this.$el.html(template);
The html looks like this after running the render function, before runing the render function. Beforehand, the <div class ="app">
is empty (as it should be). It copy pasted the code from template and therefore the ids into the div.
<div class="app">
<input type="text" id="signup-username" placeholder="Username"/>
<input type="password" id="signup-password" placeholder="Create a Password"/>
<button id="signUpBtn">Sign Up</button>
<button id="logInBtn">Login</button>
</div>
<!-- Templates -->
<!-- Login Template -->
<script type="text/template" id="user-login-template">
<input type="text" id="signup-username" placeholder="Username"/>
<input type="password" id="signup-password" placeholder="Create a Password"/>
<button id="signUpBtn">Sign Up</button>
<button id="logInBtn">Login</button>
</script>
For reference, this is what my whole view looks like
var LogInView = Parse.View.extend({
el: '.app',
events: {
"click .signUpBtn": "signUp",
"click .logInBtn": "logIn"
},
initialize: function (){
this.render()
},
logIn: function () {
//To Do
},
render: function () {
var template = _.template($("#user-login-template").html(), {});
this.$el.html(template);
}
});
If Webstorm is complaining about the id
s inside the <script>
then it is wrong and you have three options:
Things inside <script>
are not HTML and are not part of the DOM. Ask the browser what $('input[type=text]').length
is after your template is rendered and you'll get 1
since the
<input type="text" id="signup-username" placeholder="Username"/>
inside the <script>
isn't HTML, it is just text. You can even check the HTML specification of <script>
:
Permitted contents
Non-replaceable character data
Non-replaceable character data is not HTML, it is just text.
