I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...
Here are two functions to get the page height and the scroll amounts (x,y) without the use of the (bloated) dimensions plugin:
ReplyDelete// getPageScroll() by quirksmode.com
function getPageScroll() {
var xScroll, yScroll;
if (self.pageYOffset) {
yScroll = self.pageYOffset;
xScroll = self.pageXOffset;
} else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.scrollTop) {
yScroll = document.documentElement.scrollTop;
xScroll = document.documentElement.scrollLeft;
} else if (document.body) {// all other Explorers
yScroll = document.body.scrollTop;
xScroll = document.body.scrollLeft;
}
return new Array(xScroll,yScroll)
}
// Adapted from getPageSize() by quirksmode.com
function getPageHeight() {
var windowHeight
if (self.innerHeight) { // all except Explorer
windowHeight = self.innerHeight;
} else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.clientHeight) {
windowHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
} else if (document.body) { // other Explorers
windowHeight = document.body.clientHeight;
}
return windowHeight
}
