What I have done in this function is create a drop down menu when you click a button:
function toggleNavPanel(x){
var panel = document.getElementById(x), navarrow = document.getElementById("navarrow"), maxH="300px";
if(panel.style.height == maxH){
panel.style.height = "0px";
navarrow.innerHTML = "▾";
} else {
panel.style.height = maxH;
navarrow.innerHTML = "▴";
}
}
This works successfully. But this is not what I want. What I want is for someone to be able to mouseover something and have the form pop up.
What I have done is put it into a mouseenter function like so:
$('#story').mouseenter(function() {
var panel = document.getElementById('dropdown'), maxH="300px";
panel.style.height = "0px";
}).mouseleave(function() {
var panel = document.getElementById('dropdown'), maxH="300px";
panel.style.height = maxH;
});
This does not work. The actual mouseenter event is never executing because I have tried alerting and it didn't work either.
Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Some more related code is below:
#story {
position:relative;
top: -20%;
left: 0%;
width: inherit;
height: 25%;
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: 5px;
background-color: transparent;
color: black;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #D8D8D8;
}
#dropdownbutton {
float:center;
width:144px;
height:46px;
padding-top:16px;
background:#F90;
}
#dropdown{
position:absolute;
height:0px;
width:550px;
background:#000;
top:60px;
left:160px;
border-radius:0px 0px 8px 8px;
overflow:hidden;
z-index:10000;
transition: height 0.3s linear 0s;
}
view:
<div class="main">
<div id="dropdownbutton">
<button type="button" onclick="toggleNavPanel('dropdown')">Drop Down</button>
</div>
<div id="dropdown">
<p>Working</p>
</div>
Location of story element:
<div class="info_bar">
<div id="story">Story</div>
<div id="info">Info</div>
<div id="content">Content</div>
</div>

Based on the discussions...
jQuery library was not included and the code was not added in a dom ready handler
