I’m trying to use the EXACT SAME jQuery code. It works in one html

  • 0

I’m trying to use the EXACT SAME jQuery code. It works in one html document but not in the second. I’m using CSS in these documents as well. Both the CSS and the jQuery code are not in external files. I feel like the solution is probably something simple so forgive me for my lack of knowledge. I will leave the jQuery code, the CSS code, the html code that isn’t functioning with the jQuery and exactly how it looks in the document(all in one). I will list them in that exact order.

JQUERY CODE:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
  $(".showr").click(function(){
    $(".vidr").css('visibility','visible');
    $(".vids").css('visibility','hidden');
  });
  $(".shows").click(function(){
    $(".vidr").css('visibility','hidden');
    $(".vids").css('visibility','visible');
  });
    $(".left").click(function(){  
    $(".showr").animate({"left":"-=110px"},"slow");
    $(".shows").animate({"left":"-=110px"},"slow");
  });
    $(".right").click(function(){  
    $(".showr").animate({"left":"+=110px"},"slow");
    $(".shows").animate({"left":"+=110px"},"slow");
  });
});
</script>

CSS CODE:

<style type="text/css">
html,body
{
padding:0;
margin:0;
height:1200px;
overflow-y:scroll;
}
body
{
overflow-x:hidden;
overflow-y:hidden;
}
.stretch
{
width:100%;
height:1200px;
position:relative;
z-index:-2;

    I think that the problem is with the version of jquery and/or clashes between inline styles and stylesheet styles.

    I set up a jsfiddle and if you run your HTML and jquery nothing happens on jquery 1.2.6 but the code works OK on jquery versions 1.3.2, 1.4.4, 1.5.2, 1.6.

    I didn’t include the css in the fiddle because you have inline styles as well as using a stylesheet – the clashes between the two break the page on js fiddle, so I guess there are conflicts causing unwanted side-effects.

    I would switch to using helper methods rather than directly referencing CSS styles; so use:

    $(".vidr").hide();

    rather than:

    $(".vidr").css('visibility','hidden');

    And you might want to look at the jquery animate function because I’m not sure whether your use of it is achieving what it is you want it to.
