I need Help. my shopping list is not clickable

[lucifer6669]

so I’m not sure if this is the right area but, I built a module to create a real time editable shopping list. the core is there but I cannot click into the box to add an item. when I check the dev logs it shows no issues and when I exit dev logs it lets me type into the box, but I cannot add the item. once I click out the box I cannot click in it. I’m stumped and even resorted to AI for help with zero luck. what am I missing? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Module.register("MMM-ShoppingList", {
    defaults: {
        initialItems: [] // Initial items in the shopping list
    },

    start: function() {
        console.log("Starting module: " + this.name);
        this.shoppingList = this.config.initialItems;
    },

    getStyles: function() {
        return ["MMM-ShoppingList.css"];
    },

    getDom: function() {
        var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
        wrapper.id = "shopping-list-container";

        var heading = document.createElement("h1");
        heading.innerText = "Shopping List";
        wrapper.appendChild(heading);

        var list = document.createElement("ul");
        list.id = "shopping-list";
        wrapper.appendChild(list);

        for (let item of this.shoppingList) {
            list.appendChild(this.createListItem(item));
        }

        var inputDiv = document.createElement("div");
        inputDiv.id = "add-item";

        var input = document.createElement("input");
        input.type = "text";
        input.id = "new-item";
        input.placeholder = "Add new item...";
        inputDiv.appendChild(input);

        var button = document.createElement("button");
        button.innerText = "Add";
        button.onclick = () => {
            alert("Button clicked");
            this.addItem(input.value);
            input.value = "";
        };
        inputDiv.appendChild(button);

        wrapper.appendChild(inputDiv);

        console.log('Returning wrapper with interactive elements');
        console.log('DOM:', wrapper);

            alert("Delete clicked");
            this.removeItem(item);
        };
        li.appendChild(deleteSpan);

        return li;
    },

    addItem: function(item) {
        if (item === "") return;
        console.log('Adding item:', item);
        this.shoppingList.push(item);
        this.renderShoppingList();
        console.log('Item added:', item);
    },

    removeItem: function(item) {
        console.log('Removing item:', item);
        this.shoppingList = this.shoppingList.filter(i => i !== item);
        this.renderShoppingList();
        console.log('Item removed:', item);
    },

    renderShoppingList: function() {
        var list = document.getElementById("shopping-list");
        if (list) {
            list.innerHTML = "";
            for (let item of this.shoppingList) {
                console.log('Rendering item:', item);
                list.appendChild(this.createListItem(item));
            }
            console.log('DOM updated with new list');
        } else {
            console.log('Error: Shopping list container not found');
        }
    },

    notificationReceived: function(notification, payload, sender) {
        console.log('Notification received:', notification);
        if (notification === "DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED") {
            console.log('DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED notification received');
            this.renderShoppingList();
        }
    }

@sdetweil @chrisfr1976 you all are amazing. all i had to do was change the fireworks to fullscreen_below and now it all works. the text box is clickable and editable and the chores list sets off the fireworks and i see them. thank you both. i enjoy learning and doing all this.

[sdetweil]

@lucifer6669 are spans clickable ?

use the developers window, ctrl-shift-i
sources tab
find your code in left nav, then you can step thru the code as it happens

[lucifer6669]

@sdetweil honestly at this point I have no idea what i’m doing. I have another module chore list that has clickable toggles and button and even activates fireworks once everything is marked done and it works perfectly fine

[chrisfr1976]

@lucifer6669 Hi,
you’re running this:

loader.js:178 Load script: modules/MMM-Fireworks/MMM-Fireworks.js
module.js:489 Module registered: MMM-Fireworks
loader.js:151 Bootstrapping module: MMM-Fireworks

If is is configured in fullscreen_above you can’t see it but it is there.

I think MMM-Fireworks it can be in fullscreen_behind. But you may need to check if you have a background image that the z-index is correct. You can try to add in the background image css a z-index: -2; and for Fireworks a z-index: -1;. Then start a test for Fireworks. If you can see it, it should be okay and you can click in your list. I’m not sure if this works. This is on my to-check-list :)

[sdetweil]

@chrisfr1976 fullscreen_below

[sdetweil]

@lucifer6669 also, you should start w your module only while developing

[lucifer6669]

@chrisfr1976 thanks. i will try this. i have no issues with the fireworks module firing when my chore list is completed. but it may be interfering with the clickable chore list.

Hi,
I’ve just fixed that issue in general. I’ve added wrapper.style.pointerEvents = "none"; and p.canvas.style.pointerEvents = "none"; in the module file. This allows pointer events to pass to modules underneath! So also the CalExt3 can be used again with the pop-up windows. I’m also very happy now :-)

Cheers Chris!
