Topic: Close icon with badge and FontAwesome JS

jouvrard pro asked 4 years ago

Hello,

I try to use the "chip" tags with the JS version of Fontawesome (5.8.2).

As you can see in the Screenshot, I have a problem: the cross icon to delete the tag is very small and clicking on it has no effect. I try with the css version of Fontawesome and it's OK.

Is anyone has this problem too and can I resolve it? (and continue to use the js version of FA… :))?

Thanks,

Jerome

Unfortunatly it doesn't work.The event "on chip.delete" is not called when I do "$(this).parent().remove();"

I found an other solution to solve this without using the chip.delete event

$(document).on( "click", ".fa-times", function () {
    let parent = $(this).parent();
    $('input[value="' + parent.text() + '"]').remove();
    parent.remove();
});

I'd prefer to use the chip.delete event but this solution works. :) I juste need to be more precise on the click event to activate it only for the chip.

Hi,

so if this above solution works, do you need more help?

Thank you for your help, BUT….. ;)

As you can see, now the close icon is ok, but it's not active when I clic on it. http://www.antenna.fr/testmdb/

I can close it by adding this code (not in the online example):

$(document).on( "click", ".fa-times", function () {
    $(this).parent().remove();
});

But with this, the "chipClass.on('chip.delete')" event isn't called. :( Which code do you use to delete a chip please?

Marta Wierzbicka staff commented 4 years ago

Hi,

in our documentation here: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/jquery/components/badges/#events we have settings for deleting a chip. I hope it helps.

Best, Marta

Hi,

try to use in your CSS in <style></style> this code:

.svg-inline--fa.fa-w-11 { width: auto; margin-top: 0.49rem; }

It's difficult to do a snippet because the problem arrives when I use the javascript version of Fontawesome instead of the css version. I use MDB 4.8.8.

If I begin my page with: "", there is no problem.

But if I do this: "" I have the problem of the little close icon.

I did a test here if you want to see the result: http://www.antenna.fr/testmdb/

Thanks,

Hi,

please, look at that snippet: https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/jquery/marta-szymanska/1123418. Here, we also use Font Awesome, the "x" sign is <i class="close fas fa-times"></i> and there are also styles for this "x" button. In the snippets website, we use the last MDB version - 4.8.8. Would you describe your issue in details as I described it above? What version of MDB do you have? Do you want to add your own icon? Please, tell me more details and create a snippet showing the problem here: https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/. I'll try to help you.

Best, Marta
