Solving the problem of dynamically generated content siblings using Jquery

As I continue to work towards my solution, I've encountered one last issue that's really causing some trouble. You can check out my progress on this fiddle: (http://jsfiddle.net/CjHAD/10)

The main problem I'm facing right now is ensuring that when I open the red click div and then open the black click div, the blue click thumb doesn't end up duplicating itself inside the sibling .parent-box.

If you have any tips or suggestions on how to improve the overall functionality, elegance, and efficiency of this code, please feel free to share them. I'm also available to provide further clarification if needed!

Below is the HTML code snippet:

<div class="parent-box">
    <h3>2013</h3>
    <div class="works-post">
        <div class="x-image" style="color: red">click</div><!--open/close content-->
        <div class="works-thumb">                       
            <img width="150" height="112"  />
        </div><!--.works-thumb-->
        <div class="toggle-content">
            <h4>Content</h4>
        </div><!--.toggle-content-->
    </div><!--.works-post-->
</div><!--.parent-box-->
<!-- Additional HTML code removed for brevity -->

Here's a quick look at the CSS styling utilized:

Answer №1

By eliminating the invocation of .insertAfter($('.open')), it appears that you have resolved the specific issue being mentioned. When this method is executed, there are two elements with the class open, resulting in the insertion of the contents of other in two locations. Could you clarify your intention behind executing the insert?

other.removeClass('open');

Update:

If your goal is to relocate the opened works-post to the beginning of the group within its parent-box, you can achieve this by utilizing .insertBefore() with reference to other.first().

I have taken the liberty of making some enhancements to your code for better clarity. The functionality remains essentially unchanged from the original, except for the removal of .insertAfter() and the inclusion of .insertBefore() towards the end.

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('.x-image').on('click', (function (event) {
        var thisPost = $(this).closest('.works-post');
        var thisBox = $(this).closest('.parent-box');
        var otherPosts = thisPost.siblings('.works-post');
        var beyondPosts = thisBox.siblings('.parent-box').find('.works-post');

        thisPost.find('.works-thumb').toggle('fast');
        thisPost.find('.toggle-content').slideToggle('fast', function () {
            thisPost.toggleClass('open', $(this).is(':visible'));

            otherPosts.removeClass('open');
            otherPosts.find('.toggle-content').hide();
            otherPosts.find('.works-thumb').show();

            beyondPosts.removeClass('open');
            beyondPosts.find('.toggle-content').hide();
            beyondPosts.children('.works-thumb').filter(':hidden').show();

            thisPost.insertBefore(otherPosts.first());
        });
    }));
});
