I am working on a robot project, that is required to create a website to control the robot via serial port.. The website is plainly html, no linking to database is needed...
I have no idea how and what language to use and can JavaScript communicate with serial port? and how?
How to do serial port communication using Javascript?
View 2 Replies View RelatedBelow is the distillation of code with which I am having troubles. The code works, but I am sure that there must be a better way of doing things.
This simple program displays two boxes. When the user mouses over either box, all boxes are returned to their original state, a zIndex of 2 is applied to it, then the box expands partially over the other box. This works fine.
However, I am using setTimeout to coordinate the setting of the zIndex value, which is something that I would think would better be accomplished through a callback. The problem is that I do not know if a called function can take a callback (I have tried without success).[code]...
I have a web app where I have created a div to masquerade at a textarea so I can add highlighting according to so rules. I rely on setting designmode=true. After certain amounts of idle time my code grabs the text from the div, which consists of tags and <span> tags and re-generates the html with new spans. The paragraphs and text stay the same. So far so good. But when the div "repaints" the insertion is set to the beginning of the div. I want it to visually stay put, meaning I need to somehow record where it was before nd then restore it afterwards. Problem is, I can't seem to get my head wrapped around how selections (Ranges, etc.) work. I've been googling around for the last day or so and have not yet seen the light.

Then when you’re finished writing down your 9 numbers it will automatic change focus to the submit button.
You can do that in JavaScript, if you have an activation code or something else on your webpage, and it's quite simple to actually.
Place this code in your head section on your page:
<script type="text/javascript">
function toUnicode(elmnt,content)
{
if (content.length==elmnt.maxLength)
{
next=elmnt.tabIndex
if (next<document.forms[0].elements.length)
{
document.forms[0].elements[next].focus()
}
}
}
</script>
Place this HTML code in your body:
<form name="form" form methode="post" value="active.asp">
<input size="4" tabindex="1" name="first"
maxlength="4" onkeyup="toUnicode(this,this.value)">
<input size="3" tabindex="2" name="Second"
maxlength="3" onkeyup="toUnicode(this,this.value)">
<input size="2" tabindex="3" name="Third"
maxlength="2" onkeyup="toUnicode(this,this.value)">
<br>
<br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"
</form>
I have a list of serial numbers, a from and to set of numbers that correlate to a year. Id like to have a way to have a user enter a serial number, and have the year returned as the answer. For example;
100001 to 100100 = 1990
100101 to 100200 = 1991
100200 to 100300 = 1992
so if the user enters 100145 the answer 1991 would be returned
how to look for the correct code / function its hared to find the answer - catch 22.
Is JavaScript able to send/listen for data on a specific port? I'm seeking
a solution to real time data interaction with my web server that doesn't
require refreshing the page. I.e., a chat room, where the data can be
broadcast from the server arbitrarily and displayed by the client
browser(s). To accomplish the data transmission can I use JS, or do I need
to augment my client-side platform to something like Java, et al?
Basically, I want to have a javascript that will watch for data coming
in on a specific port - like HTTP on port 80, etc. Is this at all
possible with pure javascript?
I'm a newbie to javascript programming and I'm seeking on a solution on how to connect to a tcp port using javascript. Basically, we have phone server that is constantly streaming XML data on port 1024 (serverIP:1024). I've ran a packet sniffer and was able to gather the elements and attributes for the XML data that the server is streaming. Now, I have a test XML parser which works with the XML document using the elements and attributes i've gathered from the packet sniffer. Is there a way for me to connect to the TCP port i've mentioned using javascript and incorporate it with the XML parser that I have. code...

I need to fix the communication between the JS located in this page and the PHP form script. When the form is submitted I want the page to automatically update which is already present in the script, thanking the user for the submission. Since the PHP script was changed that communication is broken and I hope to get it communicating once again.

I am new to Javascript and am trying out window communication with a popup.In the main window it opens up a popup window with a button click.

I know about the same-origin policy and that one of the only ways to load data from a cross-domain is to load it as JSON. However, all I am trying to do is access data from a server on another port (which I believe the browser still treats as cross-domain). I need to do this because the server my application is on is a map server and the other server (Apache) is the only one that can handle php scripts. I have also tried out the plug-in from [URL] and while it works when I do $('#phpContent').load('http://www.google.com'); it doesn't work when I try $('#phpContent').load('http://localhost:80/mapScripts/getFiles.php'); I have also tried$.get('http://localhost:80/mapScripts/getFiles.php', function(data) { $('#phpContent').html(data); });
So here I am breaking my brain and do not know what else to attempt.
I have created a payment system using Jquery. The problem I run into is when I move from http to https. I get the following error: Error: [Exception... "Access to restricted URI denied" code: "1012"
[Code]...
I'm trying to find a way to have a script communicate with a server
without having to load a new page. The idea is to have the server act
as a simple wrapper for a database, letting the client do that icky UI
stuff.
I tried the obvious, putting a frame somewhere it doesn't insult the
eye, changing its location, then accessing the new content via DOM.
What I get from IE (6) for my pains is just a rude "permission
denied". This even though I entered "localhost" as a trusted site in
IE's security setting. What's amiss?
let's me explains my long problem:
I'm doing an intranet with a media part. So im must be able to upload files on
a ftp server AND have a record of informations about this file and meta date in
a MySQL database, shown in a php page.
So the first thing i was doing was:
1/ * A HTML Form, with a <input type="file"> which was uploading the file to
the web server. And then, in the next action-php-page, using ftp functions from
php to upload to the ftp server. But this make upload the file 2 times, which
slow, and the user can't do anythig except waiting in front of a blanck loading
page.
=> no way
(BTW, the site admin refuse that the ftp server and the web server to be the
same computer)
So i tried something else:
2/ * A HTML form, the user enter meta data about the media, click next, and
then, a php page which loads a java applet an pass informations to it (by param
tags).
The applet have a browse button, and a go button, which start the transfert
(JDK 1.4.1) trough the URLConnection. The file is uploaded once, and there is a
progress bar, which is wonderful.
But now, i need the src_file information wich is the java applet. So i have two
options:
A/ I make a post to the webserver from the applet. But i'm using session
identification (needed for tracing users actions) and i'm gonna use SSL in less
than one month, so i think it would be complicated.
B/ I export the information from the java applet to javascript, and then to
HTML hidden field, so that the user can submit the full-hidden-filled form. But
i can't make LiveConnect works.
i'm under Mac OS X 10.2 (jaguar) so i need to make work LiveConnect on both
Safari 1.0 (v85.6), mozilla 1.5, and Mac OS IE (5.2).
I have a web app with a game and chat updating with ajax very frequently sending thousands of XHR requests to the server during a user's session. The problem is that most clients experience intermittent connection failures or timeouts. On the server it appears to be fine, all requests are logged to have completed successfully and on time but the client gets either a communication failure or a timeout. This makes the user feel like the game or chat just got stuck.
I use YUI for making the XHR calls but I replaced that with jQuery with exact same results. I make sure that only one query is active at a time, so I am sure that I am not hitting the max 2 connections problem. The failure rate may be 1 in 200 hundred requests or something but it seems that when a client has a failure then it fails at a higher rate, say 1 in 10 until the problem goes away. I have clients send back an error request when such errors happen in order to track the problem. I have tried various things to try to figure out what is wrong but I have not found anything. I don't think that it's the client's connection as it happens to a sizable portion of my users, it doesn't look like it's the server either.
So what I am wondering is whether this failure rate is common or expected when doing heavy ajax staff and I need to find a way to work around it or this must be a problem in my system that I need to figure out. If the latter any pointers where to look at?
I have set of frames... one contains a menu and the other a status frame. I am calling a function from the menu which sets the variables however I need some help passing those variables to the status frame. How would I go about doing such a thing?
This is called from the menu in frame 1 but doesn't work:
Code:
function jumpsec(cat, prod) {
parent.statusbar.category=cat;
parent.statusbar.product=prod;
}
// then my status frame bar has:
document.write(parent.statusbar.category);
document.write(parent.statusbar.product);
The 2 variables are blank on statusbar onload but get populated with each click.
