Topic: Using Side Nav
Hi, Im using a side nav on a page and need to know how to load content into the available div next to it without reloading the page or having the side nav go away. Thank you in advance for any help with this request. Thank you.
When you load the additional content with JQ the event listeners are not attached.
You could try something like this (I did not test that solution):
var contentLoad = new Promise (function(resolve, reject) {
$(".content").load("validtest2.php");
resolve(true);
});
contentLoad.then(function() {
// Fetch all the forms we want to apply custom Bootstrap validation styles to
var forms = document.getElementsByClassName('needs-validation');
// Loop over them and prevent submission
var validation = Array.prototype.filter.call(forms, function(form) {
form.addEventListener('submit', function(event) {
if (form.checkValidity() === false) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
}
form.classList.add('was-validated');
});
But I suggest to rather use php server side render with routing.

Personally, I'd use React for that, but it's not impossible with jQuery version. All you need is AJAX ;) You can use the load function to do that. If you need some help, just let us know ;)

Thank you for the info. I was able to get this to work, however, once I do load the page into a div the validation for that page does not work. If I just bring up the page directly the validation works fine. I know this is not a problem with the product, but any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I think I'm just missing something but in all of my research I can't find a solution that solves this issue. Thank you in advance. -Peter

HI, below you will find index.php with the code and below that, you will find validtest2.php with its code below. Calling the index page and using the "Validation Test Page" link under "Menu 1" it will load the "validtest2.php" page into the content div. Submitting the form will not validate it, however, if I call the "validtest2.php" page directly, all of the validation works. I'm using basic templates from the site to try and get this working before I start to change it. Thank you for your help with this. -Peter
