Here is my fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Ya3w7/2/
HTML:
<img src="http://cdn.tacky.me/m/static/settings16.png" class="settings-icon"/>
<div id="control-panel">
<img src="http://cdn.tacky.me/m/static/settings16.png" />
<a href="#" style="float:right" id="close-cp">X</a>
<div class="link_container"><a href="#">Show Profile</a></div>
</div>
CSS:
.settings-icon
{
margin: 100px;
cursor: pointer;
}
#control-panel
{
position: absolute;
height: auto;
width: auto;
top: 0;
left: 0;
background-color: #fff;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
display: none;
z-index: 4;
}
JavaScript:
$('.settings-icon').click(function(){
$('#control-panel').position({
of: $('.settings-icon'),
my: 'left top',
at: 'left top'
});
$('#control-panel').show();
});
$('#close-cp').click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
$('#control-panel').hide();
});
What I am trying to do: I have a settings image, upon clicking which it positions an absolutely positioned div (called contgrol-panel) around this img.
What I am seeing:
First time I click on the img it works fine
I dismiss the control panel by clicking on X on the top right corner
Second time I click the control panel shows up somewhere else
How to Repro
Go to the fiddle
- Click on the settings icon for the first time
- Dismiss the control panel which drops down by clicking on the X
- Click on the settings icon once again
- See control panel popping up somewhere else
