Context: I have a gallery of images. The user can select each image, when they click it, the "selected" attribute is added to the individual element and a new class is added to their chosen image. The thing is, I want to limit this to only 2 selections being available.
I want to edit my script to only run up until the length is 2 or less. If the length reaches 2, no more Selected attributes to be added and no more class changes to be toggled.
I feel like I'm close. Right now my users can select/deselect but they can just do it too many times. Where am I going wrong?
function NFTSelector() {
$("#NFTGallery2 > img").each(function() {
$(this).on("click", function() {
if($(this).filter("[selected]").length>=2) {
alert('true');
} else
console.log("less than 2 or undefined so letting them choose more");
{
$(this).toggleClass('chosenNFT');
if ($(this).attr('selected')) {
$(this).removeAttr('selected');
} else {
$(this).attr('selected', 'selected');
}
}
})
});
}
I changed my approach, I instead set it up as checkboxes and limited the checkboxes this way
function NFTSelector() {
var limit = 3;
$('#NFTGallery2 > li > input').on('change', function(evt) {
if($('#NFTGallery2 > li > input:checked').length >= limit) {
this.checked = false;
}
});
}
