2nd menu option with jQuery


Question

http://www.romabio.com/products/preview.html <--- My Example /

http://www.redbox.com/movies <--- What I'm trying to do /

https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1131050-jquery-quicksand/ <--- First post about this /

If you remember, I was trying to get quicksand working and someone help me with doing a short jQuery code to do the same thing. Well, everything is working great with just doing one menu but now. I would like to add on to it so that their is a second option for the user to select. I provided the link to My Example. I don't know how to right the code in jQuery so that the user can also sort the list in to Interior or Exterior like they did in the Redbox movie list. I don't think it would be really hard for someone that knows jQuery to quickly right the code for me. I'm more of a front-end web designer and then a back-end one.

I put the code below but not all of the product DIV code because it's mostly the same thing just the li class and h1 is different.


<div id="dropdown">
<ul class="filter">
<li>Product Information List
<ul>
<li class="current"><a href="#">All Products</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Limewash Products</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Slaked Lime Plasters</a></li>
<li><a href="#">3.5 NHL Cements</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Potassium Silcate Paints</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Silossanic Paints</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Stain & Varnishes</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Specialty Products</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="dropdown2">
<ul class="filter">
<li class="current"><a href="#">All</a></li>
<li id="drop2"><a href="#">Interior</a></li>
<li id="drop3"><a href="#">Exterior</a></li>
</ul>

</div>
</div>




<ul class="items">

<li class="Limewash Products">
<a href="#"><div class="science-list shadow horizontal">
<img src="https://placehold.it/300x159" alt="" longdesc="" />
<h1>BioCalce Classico</h1>
</div></a>
</li>

<li class="Limewash Products">
<a href="#"><div class="science-list shadow horizontal">
<img src="https://placehold.it/300x159" alt="" longdesc="" />
<h1>BioCalce Classico A</h1>
</div></a>
</li>

</ul>
[/CODE]

[CODE]
<script type="text/javascript">
$('.filter li a').click(function() {

$(this).css('outline','none');
$('.filter .current').removeClass('current');
$(this).parent().addClass('current');

var filter = $(this).text();
if(filter == 'All Products') {
$('.items li.hidden').fadeIn('normal').removeClass('hidden');
} else {
$('.items li').each(function() {
if(!$(this).hasClass(filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('normal').addClass('hidden');
} else {
$(this).fadeIn('normal').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
}

return false;
});

</script>
[/CODE]

I can probably help you with this, but I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to accomplish...which part of the redbox menu are you trying to mimic? Is it the sorting functionality?

Alright, I figured it out. It's kind of sloppy, but it gets the desired effect. You will still need to add in the Interior or Exterior class to each of your products, and change the class name for the second menu to "filter_2" for it to work. Other than that, you shouldn't have any issues. Here is the jQuery:


$('.filter li a').click(function() {

$(this).css('outline','none');
$('.filter .current').removeClass('current');
$(this).parent().addClass('current');

var filter = $(this).text();
var filter_2 = $('.filter_2 .current').text();
if(filter == 'All Products') {
if (filter_2=='All') {
$('.items li.hidden, .items h2.hidden').fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
else {
$('.items li, .items h2').each(function() {
if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
}
}
else {
$('.items li, .items h2').each(function() {
if (filter_2=='All') {
if (!$(this).hasClass(filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
}
else if(!$(this).hasClass(filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
}

return false;

});
$('.filter_2 li a').click(function() {
$('.filter_2 .current').removeClass('current');
$(this).parent().addClass('current');
var filter_2 = $(this).text();
var top_filter = $('.filter .current').text();
$('.items li, .items h2').each(function() {
if (top_filter=='All Products') {
if (filter_2=='All') {
$('.items li.hidden, .items h2.hidden').fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
}
else if (filter_2=='All') {
if (!$(this).hasClass(top_filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(top_filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
});

Here is the final and working code in case anybody wanted to see the solution:


$('.filter li a').click(function() {

$(this).css('outline','none');
$('.filter .current').removeClass('current');
$(this).parent().addClass('current');
var filter = $(this).text();
var filter_2 = $('.filter_2 .current_2').text();
if(filter == 'All Products') {
if (filter_2=='All') {
$('.items li.hidden, .items h2.hidden').fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
else {
$('.items li, .items h2').each(function() {
if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
}
}
else {
$('.items li, .items h2').each(function() {
if (filter_2=='All') {
if (!$(this).hasClass(filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
}
else if(!$(this).hasClass(filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
}
return false;

});
$('.filter_2 li a').click(function() {
$('.filter_2 .current_2').removeClass('current_2');
$(this).parent().addClass('current_2');
var filter_2 = $(this).text();
var top_filter = $('.filter .current').text();
$('.items li, .items h2').each(function() {
if (top_filter=='All Products') {
if (filter_2=='All') {
$('.items li.hidden, .items h2.hidden').fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
}
else if (filter_2=='All') {
if (!$(this).hasClass(top_filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(top_filter)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else if (!$(this).hasClass(filter_2)) {
$(this).fadeOut('10000').addClass('hidden');
}
else {
$(this).fadeIn('10000').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
});

    • I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.
    • I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
    • A lot of uncertainty in this story. Might. Could. Maybe. The truth is we don't know what will happen to the universe in the end, or if it will end. Our own Milky Way galaxy will merge with the Andromeda galaxy in about 2.5 billion years, with our solar system as part of a new, larger cluster. I guess we'll have to and see how it goes down.
