  • There is less content in this box but it is the same height.

* My demo might look slightly different in Joomla's frontend, this is due to WYSIWYG styling I cannot get rid off.

As you can see here i have built up a basic module layout to show you what it would look like. The main things to consider are that i have applied the .frame-1a class to the module suffix and a manually created incontainer div (in the module) to hold the content. The inner content has a fixed size as a block element witht he margins set to auto so it centres.

Because the inner content is a fixed size you can now have varying amounts of content and the modules will alwyas be the same size. you could created a class with the modules settings in and apply them by the template but it is far easier tocontrol them from within the WYSIWYG as layput is king.

Obviously if your content is deeper that the box can hold you can just make the boxes deeper, but make sure that you apply the changs to all of the boxes and not just the one.

In the code I have only showed the inner content code to keep things easy to understand as this is all you need to create a matching module, and the class code.

I have included the class code here that I have used but you can use an Image Frame style to replace the class,. You could evene try a mix and match approach to see what unique styles you can make. I have a KB article on Image Frames to have a look at.

The Process to get this feature

Create the class

.frame-1a {
    -moz-border-bottom-colors: none;
    -moz-border-left-colors: none;
    -moz-border-right-colors: none;
    -moz-border-top-colors: none;
    background: transparent -moz-linear-gradient(center top , #fafafa, #dddddd) repeat scroll 0 0;
    border-color: #c9cbcd;
    border-image: none;
    border-radius: 0;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px 1px 2px;
    box-shadow: 0 8px 6px -6px black;
    display: inline-block;
    outline: medium none;
    padding: 4px;
    transition: all 300ms ease-out 0s;
}
  • Add this class to your template.css or a suitable CSS file.

Create the module

This what the inner content should look like.

Put your own content here !!!

  • And list items here !!!
  1. Goto the Joomla backend and create a new 'Custom HTML' module
  2. add .frame-1a module class suffix
  3. Insert the following content
    <div style="height: 360px; width: 300px;" class="frame-1a">
    	<p style="text-align: center;">Put your own content here !!!<p>
    	<ul style="text-align: center; list-style-image: url('/images/common/tick.png');">
    		<li>And list items here !!!</li>
    	</ul>
    </div>

    Or with the code in the element

    <div style="height: 360px; width: 300px; -moz-border-bottom-colors: none; -moz-border-left-colors: none; -moz-border-right-colors: none; -moz-border-top-colors: none; background: transparent -moz-linear-gradient(center top , #fafafa, #dddddd) repeat scroll 0 0; border-color: #c9cbcd; border-radius: 0; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 2px; box-shadow: 0 8px 6px -6px black; outline: medium none; padding: 4px; transition: all 300ms ease-out 0s;">
    	<p style="text-align: center;">Put your own content here !!!<p>
    	<ul style="text-align: center; list-style-image: url('/images/common/tick.png');">
    		<li>And list items here !!!</li>
    	</ul>
    </div>
    NB:
    • Either use the .frame-1a class as above, or you paste all of the classe's code into the inner content <div style="">. Obviously you need to remove the .frame-1a class declaration if you choose this method (or copy and paste the relevant bit if code).
    • If you use the class method you might not see the styling in the WYSIWYG
  4. Save and publish your new module where you want.

What now?

Alter the box size to your own preferences if required and why not try some different styles.

Centre an image

Thre are 2 ways to center and image, the old way and the new way. You can still use both.

Old Way

cat whiskers kitty tabby 200x200

<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/images/kb/2015/666/cat-whiskers-kitty-tabby-200x200.jpg" alt="cat whiskers kitty tabby 200x200" /></p>
  • This is the method used from before time. You put style="text-align: center;" in the parent element which then centers the immediate child, in this case it is an image.
  • text-align works on inline elements.

New Way

cat whiskers kitty tabby 200x200

<p><img src="/images/kb/2015/666/cat-whiskers-kitty-tabby-200x200.jpg" alt="cat whiskers kitty tabby 200x200" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" /></p>
  • This method utilises style="margin: auto auto;" and works most of the time. You need to make sure the element you are centering has a set size, a block elemment. Also the centering in performed on the element itself in relation to its parent.
  • margin: auto auto works on block level elements.

Overriding CSS rules in Joomla content

Background

This is likely to happen when you are just using an inline class you have declared in the content to change how an image looks. Because Joomla template coders are always more precise with their CSS selectors these will always trump your simple CSS class declaration.

When I was making my 'image styling' page I discovered there were some stylings for K2 that was affecting my image CSS code. I then wrote a jQuery script that would disable the offending CSS file. This however had the effect of removing all of the K2 styling.

I had previously managed to overide the styling from the "jsn_ext_k2.css" by using !important on the rules i had added for my example. This would however add lots of time whenever i wanted to add inline CSS into my articles and I am all about saving time.

The next thing I thought off was to use an 'inline CSS reset' styling block, but I would still have to use !important in this code block to overide the same rules I had just overidden except I will have added another pointless styling level. The key to the reset.css to work is knowing how CSS works and scans through its code. The key point is to use the reset.css to disable the exact rules that are causing the issue, then use your other inline scripts normally. I had to use !important to make sure rules my were applied because a more specific rules for images was being loaded from the "jsn_ext_k2.css", the more precise the rule, the more important it is and therefore will overide any previous rules that were less specific. You can utilise the ibuilt DOM viwer of Firefox to get wheich CSS rules are causing the issue. You should only disable the rules in the reset.css script that are causing you isses, there is not point in making it over complicated. So this didnt work either.

Then it dawned on me, why don't I paste all of the class into the images style="", this worked well. Success!!!

Overview

There are many ways to declare CSS rules and styling but in this article I will be investigating overiding the following offending rules as this can be very useful if you need page specific rules and do not want to hack core code or you template's CSS files.

The Offending Rule

/* Line 553 jsn_ext_k2.css */
div.itemBody img, div.userItemList img, div.catItemBody img, div.tagItemBody img, div.latestItemBody img {
    max-width: 100%;
    border: medium none;
    padding: 0px;
}

In the CSS file

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css" type="text/css" />

I discovered a problem when declaring a CSS class in my article that I would then use to re-style some demo images. The rules above would always be applied after my inline delcared class and rules because it is more precise so causes the border and padding not getting applied correctly from my rules.

The inline code in question I want applied to an image.

/* Thin Grey border and shadow */ 
.frame-1 {
    -moz-border-bottom-colors: none;
    -moz-border-left-colors: none;
    -moz-border-right-colors: none;
    -moz-border-top-colors: none;
    background: transparent -moz-linear-gradient(center top , #fafafa, #dddddd) repeat scroll 0 0;
    border-color: #c9cbcd;
    border-image: none;
    border-radius: 0;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px 1px 2px;
    box-shadow: 0 8px 6px -6px black;
    display: inline-block;
    outline: medium none;
    padding: 4px;
    transition: all 300ms ease-out 0s;
}

How the image first looked when applying the class

cat whiskers kitty tabby 300x200

If you examine the CSS rules applied to this image you will find that the rules from jsn_ext_k2.css are being applied which removes the border and padding

How the image should look

cat whiskers kitty tabby 300x200

For those interested i copied all of the rules frome the .frame-1 class into the style="" of the image, but how I got here is described below.

So now you know the problem What next?

There are different wasy to manipulate CSS rules:

  • Override CSS rules with an inline CSS
  • Override CSS rules with an inline CSS but using !important
  • An inline reset.css (almost the same as above but with a specific purpose)
  • Remove or unset a CSS attribute on the element level with jquery
  • Remove the offending CSS file with javascript
  • Change the css attributes with javascript
  • Remove all attributes on an element and then apply a class - eg  jQuery("div.itemBody img").removeAttr();
  • Put the code directly in the element's style="" instead of using a class declaration. This will always overide any code set anywhere in the CSS (CSS files / Inline) except where an !important has been used and in this case all you have to do is append an !important to the relevant rule that is not working. This method allows the styling to be visible in the WYSIWYG.
  • Add all of the attributes via javascript into the element

Notes:

  • i cannot overide more precise rules when i just have a class in my selector, classess might be rendered lasty
  • you cannot remove CSS rules where they are declared from a CSS file without complicated programming

jQuery - Changing CSS elements

The following code snippets all change their specifed elements to have the specified values. 

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery("img").css({
             "border-color":"red", 
             "border-width":"5px", 
             "border-style":"solid",
             "padding":"5px"});
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery("div.itemBody img").css({
             "border-color":"red", 
             "border-width":"5px", 
             "border-style":"solid",
             "padding":"5px"});
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery('div.itemBody img').css({
             'border-color':'red', 
             'border-width':'5px', 
             'border-style':'solid',
             'padding':'5px'});
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery('div.itemBody img, div.userItemList img, div.catItemBody img, div.tagItemBody img, div.latestItemBody img').css({
             'border-color':'red', 
             'border-width':'5px', 
             'border-style':'solid',
             'padding':'5px'});
</script>

Notes

  • Note the different type of selectors which are the same as you would use in CSS including how to seperate them with spaces and commas.
  • " and ' are interchangable.
  • No blank lines inbetween the declarations are allowed
  • The CSS rule attributes are declared by a Key:Value pair
  • Each Key:Value pair are seperated by a comma
  • It does not matter if there are extra spaces between the key:value pairs
  • It does not matter if there are extra spaces in the key or value enclosures
  • This code follows CSS rules including the selector. You can specify different target elements by seperating their selectors by using a comma. these might work,
  • You cannot split the selectors on to different lines (unless they wrap)
  • Javascript acts at the element level, and element levels are the last to be applied
  • The code must be put at the end or enclosed in a run when document is ready
  • You can set different values for attributes at the element level:
    •  A value - the attribute will have whatever you set to it ie 10px/50% etc..
    • "" - this unsets the elements attribute
    • '' - this unsets the elements attribute
    • unset - this unsets this attribute
    • intial - sets the value to the browsers default
    • inherit - this will use whatever the parents value is for this attribute

Javascript must be executed after the specified element is rendered

This is something i always get mixed up with but basically if you want Javascript/Jquery to interact with an element then the script must be run after the element has been rendered. You can do this by:

  • Placing the script after the element to be altered
  • Place the script at the very end of the page
  • Use delaying code such as $( document ).ready() / jQuery ( document ).ready() , this allow you to place the code anywhere and helps keeps things tidy. Read - $( document ).ready() | jQuery Learning Center

Example

This Works !!! - This works because the script is executed after this element has been rendered !!!

	<script type="text/javascript">
		jQuery("p.testclass").css('background-color', 'red');
	</script>

This does not work !!! The element was rendered after the script had been executed so was not altered.

Solutions - What should I Do?

Now that I have got that all out of my head here is the list of the recommended solutions:

  1. Element style - Add all of the styling rules into the elements style="" - This method allows the styling to be visible in the WYSIWYG.
  2. Element stylewith !important - Add all of the styling rules into the elements style="" but with !important where needed - This method allows the styling to be visible in the WYSIWYG.
  3. Inline CSS - A simple inline CSS styling.
  4. Inline CSS with !important - A simple inline CSS styling but with !important where needed.
  5. Complex Selector - A CSS rule that matches the offending CSS rule which the inline version will overide the file based rule.
  6. Complex Selector with !important - A CSS rule that matches the offending CSS rule which the inline version will overide the file based rule but with !important where needed.

I have not sorted them in to a prefered order of use yet, but from 1- 6 they get harder to configure.

Published in Joomla

There are several ways to unload CSS and JS scripts that have already been applied by using Javascript or JQuery. To unload CSS is simpler than JS because for JS it depends on whether the JS has been triggered and if it has already altered the DOM with it' payload, because once the DOM is altered, disabling the JS might not return the DOM it to it's original state, if that is not a problem do not worry.

General Notes

You must follow the rules below:

  • Use the full filepath to the file when using href
  • Make sure there is a slash at the beginning of a href statement when using a file path, i.e. all file paths except when you are using just the filename. I could not get my script to work withou the slash at the begining.
  • When working with jQuery in Joomla you must use jQuery() instead of $()

Depending on what type of scripting language you use, Javascript/JQuery, to unload the CSS or JS there are different ways of referencing the elements.

You can access the relevant element by:

  • Physical file path
  • href location of the file
  • Stylesheet/Script name
  • Numeric occurance of a tag type (ie the 3rd occurance of the <link> tag)
  • element id - If this is set

Identifiers

These are different identifiers you can use in the following codes to basically identify which file or element you want to work on. There might be more and should be easy to experiment with:

  • [href="fileToRemove.css"]  -  Match the file fileToRemove.css , the file needs to be in the same directory as the script
  • [href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css"]  -  Match the file /templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css
  • [href*='baz']  -  href has some code in it, and then baz (not checked this)
  • [href~="foo.com"]  -  This matches all href with foo.com anywhere in it (not checkedd this)
  • [title="mystyle"]  -  The element title is mystyle
  • [src="<path>"]  -  A file that has this filepath (obviously swap <path> for the file path)
  • [id="disableme"]  -  The element's id is disableme

The points at which I can activate the unload script:

  • An inline script
  • 'On Page Load' trigger
  • After the target CSS or JS has loaded as an external script
  • On 'DOM ready' trigger

If using jQuery you must run the script after you load the jQuery library.

JQuery Solution

Although these are all written for CSS, the commands should work for Javascript script calls. These scripts will not run unless they are run after the page has loaded the JQuery library.

" and ' can be interchanged but i prefer to use " for normal HTML declarations. This keeps things easy to understand.

These changes will be applied to the DOM so when you are looking at the source of the page you might not see them, it depends on the browser. If in doubt use the Web Developer Toolbar in Firefox and select View Generated Source and you will see the source code with all changes applied by the javascript.

It is important to use .prop, not .attr. If you use .attr, the code will work in some browsers, but not Firefox. This is because, according to MDN, disabled is a property of the HTMLLinkElement DOM object, but not an attribute of the link HTML element. Using disabled as an HTML attribute is nonstandard.

Disable CSS

$('link[href="mycustom.css"]').prop('disabled', true);

This will disable the mycustom.css although for most purposes the CSS file has been removed, but this CSS file can be re-enabled. When you look at the generated souce you will see that the link for mycustom.css is still present butthe styling is not applied.

Re-Enable CSS

$('link[href="mycustom.css"]').prop('disabled', false);

Re-enable a mycustom.css CSS file.

Remove CSS

$('link[href="mycustom.css"]').remove();

This will completely remove the the mycustom.css from the DOM, the page will need to be refreshed without this script on it to load the CSS file. when you look at the generated source code you will see a blank line where the mycustom.css link use to be, almost like a placeholder.

Insert CSS

$('head').append('<link href="/mycustom.css" rel="stylesheet" id="newcss" />');

This command will insert the mycustom.css CSS file into the header. The id="newcss" is optional but can be useful.

Insert CSS 2

This is another version to insert a CSS file from - How to load CSS stylesheets dynamically with jQuery | Vidal Quevedo

$('head').append($('<link rel="stylesheet" href="/mycustom.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />'));

This command will insert the mycustom.css CSS file into the header. The instructions are simple and well layed out but I dont know why there is a second $().

Remove a CSS file from Joomla via an Inline Script

joomla has JQuery inbuilt which makes things easier

I have the need to remove a CSS file (jsn_ext_k2.css) from joomla on a single page but without altering any core code or extension. So I will need to do this by an inline script as i do not want to load the script site wide.

noConflict()

Joomla runs JQuery in noConflict() mode because it uses other libraries so instead of calling a function with a $() you should use jQuery() , make note of the capitalised Q.

Joomla loads the noConflict() from http://yoour-joomla-site.com/media/jui/js/jquery-noconflict.js

If you do not use the correct format for the jQuery function you are likely to see either of the following errors:

  • TypeError: $(...) is null
  • TypeError: $(...).ready is not a function

The CSS is called by the following:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css" type="text/css" />

I have removed the CSS file by using the following inline code:

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery('link[href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css"]').remove();
</script>

This Also works but by disabling the CSS file

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery('link[href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css"]').prop('disabled', true);
</script>

Things i have used:

  • The full relative path
  • A slash at the beginning of the relative path, without it, the script will not remove the CSS
  • jQuery() instead of $()
  • .remove() because I do not need the CSS file anymore

Code Examples

Unload CSS from webpage - Stack Overflow

document.getElementsByTagName('link')[0].disabled = true;
  • This references the first link element by its position (i.e. 0)
$("link[href='fileToRemove.css']").remove();
  • This references the stylesheet by its name which is better and more precise
  • Obviously, replace fileToRemove.css with the relative path and filename of the file to be unloaded.
  • I had to put the filename in quotes to make it work e.g. $("link[href='test.css']").remove();
  • If you don't want to put the path, you can add a * before equal sign. $("link[href*='fileToRemove.css']").remove();
var firstLink = document.getElementsByTagName('link')[0];
firstLink.parentNode.removeChild(firstLink)
  • This would remove the first link element on the page - not sure how your html is structured but I'm sure you can use it as an example. You might want to check the type attribute if it's 'text/css' and you're targeting the right media (screen), or possibly check if the href contains 'css' anywhere if you have other link elements that aren't css references.
  • Note you can also re-set the href attribute to point to a non-existing page instead of removing the element entirely.
  • It's uncommon to see the id attribute set on the link element but I'm sure for this exact purpose the OP would probably want to, less parsing and dealing with multiple link elements.

How to unload a css file using only its filename? - Stack Overflow

I have a css file in my <head> tag, defined as follows:

<link href="/foo/bar/baz.css" rel="stylesheet" class="lazyload" type="text/css">

I want to be able to remove this css file dynamically, from the javascript. However, at runtime, I won't have the full href available, only the baz.css part (That's because the file is hosted at a CDN, and the url can be dynamically generated / different each time, so it can't be hard-coded).

$("link[href*='baz']").prop('disabled', true);
$("link[href*='baz']").remove();

Removing or replacing a stylesheet (a <link>) with JavaScript/jQuery - Stack Overflow

To cater for ie you have to set the stylesheet to be disabled as it keeps the css styles in memory so removing the element will not work, it can also cause it to crash in some instances if I remember correctly.

This also works for cross browser.

document.styleSheets[0].disabled = true;

//so in your case using jquery try

$('link[title=mystyle]')[0].disabled=true;

These days, the "jQuery way" would look like

$('link[title=mystyle]').prop('disabled',true);

I managed to do it with:

$('link[title="mystyle"]').attr('disabled', 'disabled');

it seems this is the only way to remove the styles from memory. then I added:

$('link[title="mystyle"]').remove();

to remove the element too.

To disable your selected stylesheet:

$('link[title="mystyle"]').prop('disabled', true);

If you never want that stylesheet to be applied again, you can then .remove() it. But don’t do that if you want to be able to re-enable it later.

To re-enable the stylesheet, do this (as long as you didn’t remove the stylesheet’s element):

$('link[title="mystyle"]').prop('disabled', false);

In the code above, it is important to use .prop, not .attr. If you use .attr, the code will work in some browsers, but not Firefox. This is because, according to MDN, disabled is a property of the HTMLLinkElement DOM object, but not an attribute of the link HTML element. Using disabled as an HTML attribute is nonstandard.

To remove a stylesheet:

$('link[src="<path>"]').remove();

To Replace a stylesheet:

$('link[src="<path>"]').attr('src','<NEW_FILE_PATH>');

no jQuery solution

if you can add id to your link tag

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/animations.css" id="styles-animations">

document.getElementById("styles-animations").disabled = true;

if you know index position of your css file in document

document.styleSheets[0].disabled = true; // first
document.styleSheets[document.styleSheets.length - 1].disabled = true; // last

if you want to disable style by name you can use this function

/**
 * @param [string]  [styleName] [filename with suffix e.g. "style.css"]
 * @param [boolean] [disabled]  [true disables style]
 */
var disableStyle = function(styleName, disabled) {
    var styles = document.styleSheets;
    var href = "";
    for (var i = 0; i < styles.length; i++) {
        href = styles[i].href.split("/");
        href = href[href.length - 1];

        if (href === styleName) {
            styles[i].disabled = disabled;
            break;
        }
    }
};

note: make sure style file name is unique so you don't have "dir1/style.css" and "dir2/style.css". In that case it would disable only first style.

Removing the CSS file - Stack Overflow

Give an id to the <link> tag.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/style1.css" id="style1" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/style2.css" id="style2" />

And use this code:

$("#A").click(function(){
    $("#style1").attr("disabled", "disabled");
});

Note: While there is no disabled attribute in the HTML standard, there is a disabled attribute on the HTMLLinkElement DOM object.

The use of disabled as an HTML attribute is non-standard and only used by some Microsoft browsers. Do not use it. To achieve a similar effect, use one of the following techniques:

  • If the disabled attribute has been added directly to the element on the page, do not include the <link> element instead;
  • Set the disabled property of the DOM object via scripting.

You can unload a css by disabling it as follows:

$("#A").click(function(){
    $("link[href*=bb.css]").attr("disabled", "disabled");
    $("link[href*=cc.css]").attr("disabled", "disabled");
    $("link[href*=aa.css]").removeAttr("disabled");
});

How to dynamically remove a stylesheet from the current page - Stack Overflow

Is there a way to dynamically remove the current stylesheet from the page?

For example, if a page contains:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://..." />

Assuming you can target it with jQuery it should be just as simple as calling remove() on the element:

$('link[rel=stylesheet]').remove();

That will remove all external stylesheets on the page. If you know part of the url then you can remove just the one you're looking for:

$('link[rel=stylesheet][href~="foo.com"]').remove();

According to this question, just removing the link element is not enough. You should make it disabled first, with .prop('disabled', true). Though it’s possible that browsers have changed since that question was written (2010), and you don’t need to disable the link

If you know the ID of the stylesheet

use the following. Any other method of getting the stylesheet works as well, of course. This is straight DOM and doesn't require using any libraries.

sheet = document.getElementById(styleSheetId)
sheet.parentNode.removeChild(sheet)

When the client has supplied us with the EPP code and we have started the process the following steps will occur.

Although these instructions are written for a .com address they will most likely apply to all other domain transfers except .co.uk

These instructions are written for us and our registrar is eNom so not everybody will get the steps 2 -3 which are from eNom. Different registrars might have something similiar but i dont believe it is mandatory.

To transfer out a domain (which is not a .co.uk) you need to supply your client with an EPP code which they then give to their new registrar. When you click the Get EPP Code button in WHMCS you get the following message:

Get EPP Code button message

The client will now receive a valid EPP code for the relevant domain. This EPP code will expire it is either valid for 24hr, 48hr or 7 days but I am not sure which.
