js
const ourReview = document.getElementById("ourReview");
let count = 0;
const divElem = document.createElement("div");
function loadPerson(personNum, arr = reviews) {
divElem.className = "review-modal";
divElem.innerHTML = `
<img src="${arr[personNum].img}" alt="${arr[personNum].name}"/>
<h2>${arr[personNum].name}</h2>
<span>${arr[personNum].job}</span>
<p>${arr[personNum].text}</p>
<div id="arrow-button">
<button id="frd-btn"><</button>
<button id="bck-btn">></button>
</div>
<button id="suprise">Suprise me</button>
</div>`;
ourReview.parentNode.append(divElem);
}
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", loadPerson(0));
// here these let constants are not registering new values by new modal
let frdBtn = document.getElementById("frd-btn");
let bckBtn = document.getElementById("bck-btn");
let suprise = document.getElementById("suprise");
frdBtn.addEventListener("click", () => {
if (count == 0) {
count = reviews.length - 1;
}
count--;
loadPerson(count);
});
bckBtn.addEventListener("click", () => {
if (count > reviews.length - 1) {
count = 0;
}
count ;
loadPerson(count);
});
suprise.addEventListener("click",() => {
const randomNum = Math.floor(Math.random()*reviews.length)
console.log(randomNum);
loadPerson(randomNum);
})
In the above code I am trying
let frdBtn = document.getElementById("frd-btn");
let bckBtn = document.getElementById("bck-btn");
let suprise = document.getElementById("suprise");
update these variable and trigger event listeners to the new button but frdBtn ,bckBtn ,suprise are not updating and eventlistners are binded to original buttons which are create on window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", loadPerson(0));
CodePudding user response:
There are several problems in your code.
First you have to provide a function
as a parameter of window.addEventListener
. You are currently passing the return value of the function after it has executed, which is not want you want:
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", () => loadPerson(0));
After that, you should move the event listeners inside the loadPerson
function because otherwise they execute before the elements exist (they are being added asynchronously).
Last thing you should do: don't identify nodes with an id
when there are several copies of them (several persons). That makes the HTML invalid and in that case document.getElementById
retrieves the first matching element only.
Also, the const divElem = document.createElement("div");
should go inside loadPerson
as well. Otherwise you remove it from where it was, before appending it again.
You could for example use document.createElement('button')
then attach an event listener and then append them to divElem
. And if there is CSS applied with an #id
selector, use classes instead.
CodePudding user response:
So multiple things wrong here.
First of all your DOMContentLoaded
loaded event isn't executing how you think it is.
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", loadPerson(0));
You're calling loadPerson
and assigning the returned value (which will be undefined as you don't return anything from the loadPerson
function) and assigning that as the action to trigger when DOMContentLoaded
event occurs.
Change it to
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", () => loadPerson(0));
This will call the anonymous function when DOMContentLoaded
event triggers.
Secondly, your code is applying your event listeners on the first run of the script. Which actually only works because of your mistake with the DOMContentLoaded
issue described above.
You need to action all of your code on DOMContentLoaded
event (to be honest, it's easier and better practice to just ensure your JS script file is the last element to be loaded on the page).
Now with your buttons and their logic. You need to know that JS event listeners aren't "persistent" aka if you create a new button, you need to tell JS to apply the listener to your newly created button.
If I were you, I'd create the elements programatically, not manually typing out the HTML elements as a value of innerHTML
. Aka
divElem.className = "review-modal";
divElem.innerHTML = `
<img src="${arr[personNum].img}" alt="${arr[personNum].name}"/>
<h2>${arr[personNum].name}</h2>
<span>${arr[personNum].job}</span>
<p>${arr[personNum].text}</p>
<div id="arrow-button">
<button id="frd-btn"><</button>
<button id="bck-btn">></button>
</div>
<button id="suprise">Suprise me</button>
</div>`;
ourReview.parentNode.append(divElem);
Can be
divElem.classList.add('review-modal');
const elements = {
img: document.createElement('img'),
name: document.createElement('h2'),
job: document.createElement('span'),
text: document.createElement('p'),
buttonContainer: document.createElement('div'),
buttons: {
frd: document.createElement('button'),
bck: document.createElement('button'),
surprise: document.createElement('button')
}
}
elements.img.setAttribute('src', arr[personNum].img);
elements.img.setAttribute('alt', arr[personNum].name);
elements.name.innerText = arr[personNum].name;
elements.job.innerText = arr[personNum].job;
elements.text.innerText = arr[personNum].text;
elements.buttonContainer.id = 'arrow-button';
elements.buttons.frd.innerText = '<';
elements.buttons.frd.addEventListener('click', () => {
// Logic Here
});
elements.buttons.bck.innerText = '>';
elements.buttons.bck.addEventListener('click', () => {
// Logic Here
});
elements.buttons.surprise.id = 'surprise';
elements.buttons.surprise.addEventListener('click', () => {
// Logic Here
});
elements.buttonContainer.append(...Object.values(elements.buttons));
divElem.append(
elements.img,
elements.name,
elements.job,
elements.text,
elements.buttonContainer
);
ourReview.parentNode.append(divElem);
This should go into a function that handles the creation of these elements. Additionally ALL id attributes must be unique regardless of anything. You could either switch these to JS relevant class names (aka prepended with js--
or something you can identify as JS related) or just ensure the ID's are unique (append with a number). I don't advise the latter as it can get confusing.
