I'm trying to make a simple list that shows me a div overlay for every div in the array, but I am having problems defining each div.
My current java/jQuery script involves creating a div for each object in the array along with a background image (which I am also have trouble with links. I got an online link working for the background image though.).
What I want to do is provide an overlay for every item in the list and then in the future use the same code to provide the ability to open a link or show an image preview, but that's for another list.
So, how can I get the overlay working for each div rather than acting by class. I was able to create a div with all my desired settings for each object array, along with the overlay.
You will find in my document ready function the code that currently hides/shows every overlay div.
I want to define this to individual divs' in the array rather than all.
$(document).ready(function() {
displayDesign();
$( ".pagesListOverlay" ).mouseenter(function() {
$( ".pagesListOverlay" ).hide() ;
});
});
var arrayVariableDesign = [
{name: "object1", type:"type1", company:"company1", dateYear:"2017", dateMonth:"08", dateDay:"24", image:"../images/preview/noimg.png"},
{name: "object2", type:"type1", company:"company1", dateYear:"2017", dateMonth:"01", dateDay:"20", image:"../images/preview/noimg.png"},
{name: "object3", type:"type2", company:"company2", dateYear:"2016", dateMonth:"08", dateDay:"24", image:"../images/preview/noimg.png"},
{name: "object4", type:"type3", company:"company3", dateYear:"2016", dateMonth:"03", dateDay:"04", image:"../images/preview/noimg.png"},

{name: "object6", type:"type2", company:"company1", dateYear:"2017", dateMonth:"08", dateDay:"20", image:"../images/preview/noimg.png"},
];
var arrayLength_Design = arrayVariableDesign.length;
var temp_Design;
function displayDesign() {
for (i = 0; i < arrayLength_Design; i++) {
var sortDate_Design = arrayVariableDesign[i].dateYear + arrayVariableDesign[i].dateMonth + arrayVariableDesign[i].dateDay;
temp_Design = document.createElement('div');
temp_Design.className = 'pagesListBtn mobilePagesListBtn';
temp_Design.style.background = "url(" + arrayVariableDesign[i].image.src + ")"; // https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9790347/set-an-image-object-as-a-div-background-image-using-javascript
temp_Design.style.backgroundSize = "100%";
temp_Design.style.backgroundRepeat = "no-repeat";
temp_Design.style.backgroundPosition = "50% 50%";
temp_Design.style.backgroundColor = "#C02024";

}

I am also experiencing two other problems with this code.
The image links are not working, I just copied and pasted from my css file
I get a lot of 'missing strict statements everywhere' - I fixed this by adding "use strict"; to my code.
Thanks for your help.
You have to apply the mouseenter
and mouseleave
on the parent .pagesListBtn
. From $(this)
, wich is the .pagesListBtn
hovered, find the children pagesListOverlay
to show/hide it.
$(document).ready(function() {
displayDesign();
$( ".pagesListBtn" ).mouseenter(function() {
$( this ).find(".pagesListOverlay").fadeOut(800) ;
});
$( ".pagesListBtn" ).mouseleave(function() {
$( this ).find(".pagesListOverlay").fadeIn(800) ;
});
});
