Allowing Access From One Referring URL?
Mar 5, 2010
I create eLearning materials which are given away as a communty service to help people improve their health. A typical eLearning project has a few educational screens (using a Learner Management System-LMS-template) and an interactive exercise (on an external web page-htm or html-usually accessed by button which navigates to the exercise's URL).
The interactive exercise should only be accessed from inside the eLearning lesson using the button, because it requires understanding of the way it works plus important cautions to assure proper use. I need to prevent the use of the URL outside of taking the lesson (for example, someone taking the lesson acquires the exercise's URL from their browser history and then may give this to others who access the exercise directly-without necessary knowledge and cautions).
I tried document.referrer, using JavaScript. Using the referrer URL from inside the lesson and adding the JavaScript to the exercise's htm code worked OK in FF, but not in IE 8. In FF, if the referrer was not the correct single URL from inside the lesson, then it redirected; if the correct URL, the exercise appears.
The JS code follows:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var oksite = "http://www.mysite.com/xyz/courseidxxxxx/yyyy/zzz.html";
[code]....
In IE 8, I was not able to get it to work. Using an alert, I noticed that the referrer in IE 8 was blank.My web hosting (GoDaddy) is a shared Windows hosting. I would have to upgrade from IIS6 to IIS7 to use PHP. Bigger challenge: I've never used PHP. If possible, I would prefer to use JS. But, I am open to any suggestion that will help.I am also wondering if part of the IE 8 issue is that I am using IE 8 X 64?

I've put together what I think is an illustration of my problem at [URL] Quite simply, I need to be able to access the elements of the form without referring to them by ID as the whole form is intended to be cloned. I intended to do this using parentNode and childNodes[] together with the 'this' keyword. My understanding of 'this' in this context is that it should refer to the HTML element calling the function, i.e. one of the radio button inputs. However this gives the error "Error: this.parentNode is undefined"

Without having to create a cookie....I would simply like to "grab" the referring web page of visitors to my site.
I am going to call this script from a small flash Action Script file but that doesn't really matter at this point.
If anyone can answer this simple question I'd appreciate it. I have done a search but could not get a direct answer within the first 4 pages.

I am using a third party shopping cart service written in php. I don't have access to the php code so I decided to use javascript to write a cookie. What I'm trying to do is have the cookie capture the referring URL and then keep it for a day and have it follow where ever the visitor goes in the shopping cart. Then when they check out, the referring URL will populate a form field and be returned as part of the form results. This way I can track where my visitors come from. My code is below and I'm adding it to the file designated as the head section. (The files I have access to must use some form of include but I can't use php in them - just html and javascript. I've tried.)
I have an alert in the code that suggests something to do as well as set the cookie. The alert comes up and the cookie is set but when you go to another page, the alert comes up again and another cookie is set. I just need to have it set once so when they fill out the order form, I'll know where they came from.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
cookie_name = "dataCookie";
var referred;
[code]....
In the body I am reading it with a form field of
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
document.write("<FORM>")
document.write("Originally Referred by:")
[code]....

I want to append a string "&sid=xyz" to the current page URL if the referring URL comes from site [URL]. I have the following code -
var query = location.search.substring(1);
if (document.referrer.indexOf(/xyz/) > 0) {
query = query + "&sid=xyz";
}
However, the string is not being appended.

I have an object, "A", which contains another object "B", as an attribute.
How do I get a hold of Object "A" from within "B"? i.e. I need to refer to the object that B is stored inside from within B's code. Is there some superclass equivalent of 'this' that I don't know about? ('parent'?!)

I have very limited experience with Javascript. Can someone refer me to
info on how to determine the referring URL and the search term used by a
visitor just prior to his landing on my web page?

So, in my example, anyone accessing my index.html from the
*btinternet.com domain (allowing for wildcards!) will be redirected to
"update.htm". Code:

Does anyone know of some way of referring to the current line number in a javascript? This would be a handy debugging tool: whenever a function threw an exception, it could say "ERG! Something wrong on THIS line".

I have been given the task of creating an online coupon system. The only
real challenge that I can identify at this point is allowing only one coupon
to be printed rather than several times. Because printing is done on the
client side, I thought that it would make sense to post this to newsgroups
that cater to the JavaScript folk. Can anyone out there point me to how I
would enforce this, that is, allowing only one coupon to be printed.
Someone told me to look at the window.print() method.

I'm using jquery height() function to make it so that a div inside my page fills the gap between the header and footer (which are fixed height) so that the entire page is fullscreen. However I want any content in that div to overflow:auto; When I set the css to overflow:auto; the div disappears totally.$("#col3_tab").height( contentH-$("#col3_content").outerHeight() );contentH is simply the sum height of the header and footer and #col3_content is a fixed height div above the div I want to be auto scroll.
#col3_tab {
width: 100%;
background-color:#CC99CC;

You know how there are a dozen ways to have tabs (tab1, tab2, tab3, etc.) that when you click or mouse over them the text in the area below the tabs changes according to each tab?
Well I've been trying to find some code that allows you NOT to have a visible tab1 but still allows you to have the text below it. Essentially it would be the default text on the page, and then when you select a tab, then the text in that space changes to match that tab. but until then its just default text that isn't tied to any tab. Since all the codes seem to employ the Unordered list, there doesn't seem to be a way to have some default text with a corresponding <li> list element (the tab).
Does anyone know of a way to achieve this? I wish I could show you my web page but I'm a newbie and not allow to include URLs in my posts yet.

I'm trying to allow a user to select an XML file so that my javascript can parse it and create some pins for a google map. It works fine in Firefox, and by using FireBug I can see that the file is being accessed as expected. IE on the other hand tells me that "'files.0' is null or not an object" on line 68 of address-locator.php...Here's a link to the page: Address Locator (I've attached the files as well in a zip archive)and a sampling of the XML file I'm loading:
HTML Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<barList>
<establishment>

I got a problem while renendering a menu and combobox on a page. The
problem is stated below.
As per my requirement I have to display a menu on top of the page and
a combo box just below it. While dragging the mouse over the menu, the
submenu items should appear over the combobox. I go for ZINDEX, assign
a lower ZINDEX to the combo box than that of the menu, but still the
combobox appears over the menu items.
Can we have an alternate for it?

If I do something like, minDate: new Date(1930, 1-1, 14) or, minDate: '-70Y' The oldest date available will be 1999, and no matter what I've tried I've never been able to get beyond this barrier. Is this a limitation of datepicker?

I have an onfocus event that makes a textarea large and then an onblur event that sets it back to a smaller textarea. If I click the textarea the onfocus event is triggered but if I go straight to submit the form the onblur event is triggered and the form is not submitted unless i hit submit twice. How can I get the form to submit? Can I put an "if" statement in the onblur event to see if the form is being submitted then just submit the form otherwise run the onblur event?
Code:
<style type="text/css">
.textarea {
background-color: #ffffff;
color: black;
