Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 9,153 PointsAlright, TreeHouse Community. I need your help. Pagination Filter Project.
I want to complete this project with the search on it.. I cant seem to get it right though.. I'm missing a few details for it to work perfect.. problems:
- it repeats "No student" text 65 times.
- add the style already used in the html on that "No student" text. (this one might be simple enough for me to figure out. Just need a little direction)
- make it so the search isn't so broad. (ex. if u search "a" every name the has the letter "a" appears.) I want to make it so it searched the first letters of the name. and show those names only.
- If the search does indeed contain more than 10 names, I want no more than 10 names to load per page. I've made a function to only load 10 names per page, but can't figure out how to apply it to this.
That's it I believe.. If you see any other improvements, please tell me. I won't submit this project till I get some input.. Thank you..
Here's the entire JS code:
//variable with the student-items in the student-list class value..
const $studentsList = $("ul.student-list li.student-item");
const paginationFunction = ()=> {
//eventlistener
$(".pagination ul li a").on("click", function(){
//sets index of the li u clicking.. ex. click on the 3rd li returns 2.
let index = $(".pagination ul li a").index(this);
//remove "active" class so its not highlighted
$("a").removeClass("active");
//hide all studentsList in page. then slice the arrays.. and multiple by 10 to get 10 items at a time.
//ex. 3rd item is index 2, (10 * index(which is 2),10 * (index + 1).
$($studentsList).hide().slice(10 * index,10 * (index + 1)).show();
//add class back into that clicked anchor tag
$(this).addClass('active');
});
};
//event handler to load only first 10 items when page loads.
$(window).on("load", function(e) {
$($studentsList).hide().slice(0,10).show();
//start paginationFunction on load.
paginationFunction();
});
$("#searchButton").on("click", function() {
$($studentsList).show();
let $filteredUserInput = $("#userInput").val().toUpperCase();
for(let i = 0; i < $studentsList.length; i++){
let $studentName = $("h3")[i].innerHTML.toUpperCase();
if($studentName.toUpperCase().indexOf($filteredUserInput) < 0 || $filteredUserInput.length == 0 || $filteredUserInput == " ") {
$(".pagination").remove();
$($studentsList[i]).hide();
$(".student-list").append("<p>No student with that name.</p>");
} else if ($studentName.toUpperCase().indexOf($filteredUserInput) > 0){
$(studentsList[i]).show();
}
}
});
and here's the entire html..

231,533 PointsHere's a few answers:
- it repeats "No student" text 65 times.
Well, inside the loop, for each student you hide, you also append that message as a paragraph to the student-list element. For one thing, while inside the loop you probably want only to keep track of whether or not any students are shown. Then after the loop, you can use that information to display the message or not. But you also don't want to be adding paragraph elements to a ul (children of a ul should all be li elements). What might work better is to have that paragraph element on the page already, identified by a unique class or id, and then just hide or show it as appropriate.
- add the style already used in the html on that "No student" text. (this one might be simple enough for me to figure out. Just need a little direction)
If the style never changes, I'd just put it in the CSS.
- make it so the search isn't so broad. (ex. if u search "a" every name the has the letter "a" appears.) I want to make it so it searched the first letters of the name. and show those names only.
Instead of discarding only negative returns from indexOf, discard anything other than 0. Then it must match only at the beginning.
- If the search does indeed contain more than 10 names, I want no more than 10 names to load per page. I've made a function to only load 10 names per page, but can't figure out how to apply it to this.
You might need to rethink the strategy on this one. You probably want this to work even after a search, so you can't just use the index of the studentsList to divide the groups. You might try looking at other similar forum questions for ideas.
