When the count equals 0, I don't want any effect on the notification box. However, when the count is not equal to zero, I want the notification box to turn red. I tried implementing this, but it's not working as expected. By not working, I mean nothing happens. I even checked the CSS using inspect element, but there's no change there...
<style>
{% block style %}
#notification_dropdown.notification { background: red; }
{% endblock %}
</style>
<li class="dropdown">
<a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle notification-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" role="button" aria-expanded="false">
<span class='glyphicon glyphicon-inbox' aria-hidden="true"></span>
<span class="caret"></span></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" id='notification_dropdown'>
</ul>
</li>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".notification-toggle").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "{% url 'get_notifications_ajax' %}",
data: {
csrfmiddlewaretoken: "{{ csrf_token }}",
},
success: function(data){
$("#notification_dropdown").html(' <li role="presentation" class="dropdown-header">Notifications</li>');
var count = data.count
console.log(count)
if (count == 0) {
$("#notification_dropdown").removeClass('notification');
var url = '{% url "notifications_all" %}'
$("#notification_dropdown").append("<li><a href='" + url+ "'>View All Notifications</a></li>")
} else {
$("#notification_dropdown").addClass('notification');
$(data.notifications).each(function(){
var link = this;
$("#notification_dropdown").append("<li>" + link + "</li>")
})
}
console.log(data.notifications);
},
error: function(rs, e) {
console.log(rs);
console.log(e);
}
})
})
})
</script>
I tried adding
$("#notification_dropdown").removeClass('notification');and
$("#notification_dropdown").addClass('notification');After that, I also applied CSS...but it still doesn't seem to work. What could be the issue here?
