Javascript and JQuery conflict
Question by Fox Mulder
I’m not very expert in using javascript and jquery but I’m working with them for a client.
I have encountered a problem using two script: the first one makes a top panel sliding, the second is in a form. This one is used in order to hide or show a particular field basing on the drop down list choice.
I’ve found that if I disable the first script (the panel), the second script is working fine and vice versa. I tried usign JQuery noConflict() in the head of the page but nothing happened.
Here the code of the first script (sliding panel):
$(document).ready(function () {
// Lets make the top panel toggle based on the click of the show/hide link
$("#sub-panel").click(function () {
// Toggle the bar up
$("#top-panel").slideToggle();
// Settings
var el = $("#shText");
// Lets us know whats inside the element
var state = $("#shText").html();
// Change the state
state = (state == 'Nascondi' ? '<span id="shText">Entra</span>' : '<span id="shText">Nascondi</span>');
// Finally change whats insdide the element ID
el.replaceWith(state);
}); // end sub panel click function
}); // end on DOM
Here the JS code for the form (hide/show field):
$document.addEvent('domready', function () {
$('motivo_contatto').addEvent('change', function () {
if ($('motivo_contatto').value == 'Invia CV') {
$('upload_file').style.visibility = 'visible';
} else {
$('upload_file').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
});
$('upload_file').style.visibility = 'hidden';
});
});
Can anyone help me ? Thank you and have a nice day!

you’re using 2 different ways to add things to happen to the document ready event:
$(document).ready(function(){ ... });
and
$document.addEvent('domready', function() { ... });
maybe if you just use one it works; maybe the code below will work; I put it all in the first option to run code on document ready:
I edited below code and removed all mootools code; so it might work now.
$(document).ready(function(){
// Lets make the top panel toggle based on the click of the show/hide link
$("#sub-panel").click(function(){
// Toggle the bar up
$("#top-panel").slideToggle();
// Settings
var el = $("#shText");
// Lets us know whats inside the element
var state = $("#shText").html();
// Change the state
state = (state == 'Nascondi' ? '<span id="shText">Entra</span>' : '<span id="shText">Nascondi</span>');
// Finally change whats insdide the element ID
el.replaceWith(state);
}); // end sub panel click function
document.getElementById('motivo_contatto').onchange = function() {
if(document.getElementById('motivo_contatto').value == 'Invia CV') {
document.getElementById('upload_file').style.visibility = 'visible';
} else {
document.getElementById('upload_file').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
};
document.getElementById('upload_file').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}); // end on DOM

Mixing up two different libraries. Not a good idea.
If you want to keep on following on that pattern, wrap one of the function on a different function and call if from another.
Like:
function moo() {
$('motivo_contatto').addEvent('change', function () {
if ($('motivo_contatto').value == 'Invia CV') {
$('upload_file').style.visibility = 'visible';
} else {
$('upload_file').style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
});
$('upload_file').style.visibility = 'hidden';
});
}
Then call it from another
$(document).ready(function () {
moo(); // Call the moo function
// Lets make the top panel toggle based on the click of the show/hide link
$("#sub-panel").click(function () {
// Toggle the bar up
$("#top-panel").slideToggle();
// Settings
var el = $("#shText");
// Lets us know whats inside the element
var state = $("#shText").html();
// Change the state
state = (state == 'Nascondi' ? '<span id="shText">Entra</span>' : '<span id="shText">Nascondi</span>');
// Finally change whats insdide the element ID
el.replaceWith(state);
}); // end sub panel click function
}); // end on DOM
Check this answer, if you want to use both libraries side by side
