Argument Checking
Aug 8, 2006Does anyone have any coding rules they follow when doing argument checking?
When arguments fail during check, do you return from the call with an ambiguous return value, or do you throw exceptions?

Passing A Function As An Argument And Using The Evaluated Functionas An Argument
Nov 30, 2006how to you use the result of a function as the argument for another function instead of passing the actual function to it. i.e.
function foo2(){}
function foo(func){}
foo(foo2);
This passes foo2 to foo, can I do foo(foo2()) ? i.e. is the difference between whether a function is passed or evaluated dependent on whether you use "()" after the function name?
Invalid Argument With AppendChild
Jul 23, 2005If I try to append a PARAM tag twice I'm having problems:
var.medDiv = document.getElementById("myDiv");
var medObj = document.createElement("object");
var p = document.createElement("param");
p.setAttribute("FileName",this.URL);
medObj.appendChild(p);
p = document.createElement("param");
p.setAttribute("AutoStart","false");
medObj.appendChild(p); // <-- this one
medDiv.appendChild(medObj);
The line with the "this one" comment triggers IE to tell me that it has
an invalid argument. If I change the order of the PARAMs then the new
second PARAM will give me the error. If I move the setAttribute to after
the appendChild I still get the error.
Reload A Page With Argument
Jul 20, 2005Suppose I have a frame like 123bottom.html and within it, I want to promt
the user for a response (in the <HEAD>) like
var ans = prompt("What is your name?");
and then reload the page (via, say window.location.reload() ?)
using the argument of the value of ans appended onto the url so that, in
effect, say, I am calling the new frame as
123bottom.html?ans=Ike
Can someone show me how I need to call the page again, itself, like this
once I have the value for ans? Thanks, Ike (himself)

Array As Constructor Argument
Jan 26, 2005Can you pass an array reference to a constructor? I don't know if it's because the syntax is screwy or it's impossible, but the following doesn't work.
// row constructor with array called fields
function RowObject(fields)
{
this.fields=new Array();
this.fields=fields;
}
row=new RowObject(fields);
alert(row.fields[0])

How To Reference Variable Through Function Argument?
Jun 9, 2007How can I modify any one of these global variable identified via a function
argument?

JQuery :: Error IE Invalid Argument
May 21, 2010I amreceivingthe following error on IE8:Invalid argument. jquery-1.4.2.js, line 5899 character 5 Now I have used the debugger, and this seems to be the only error it catches. And I realize that I could go through each line of what I wrote and figure out what line triggered this portion of jQuery. However in the interest of making jQuery better, I want to understand this error and fix it in the jQuery file.

JQuery :: Object As Function Argument?
Jun 23, 2009I have used an object in the past as a function argument, but this was for a plugin that I wrote. Using it in the architecture of a plugin it worked. BUT, this time, I just want to write a normal function, but still use an object to set defaults and pass in changes to those defaults through as a param. Is this possible, or do I have to make this a jQuery function like $.myfunction() ?

Onload Set Onclick And Pass Argument?
Apr 8, 2010i have an initAll() called on window.onload within initAll() I assign a few onclick handlers to some links. However, it would be great if I could pass an argument to the handler, so I could use the same handler every time... but if I include two brackets for each handler, it executes immediately... ignoring the 'onclick' bit...
window.onload = initAll;
function initAll(){
document.getElementById('btn_events').onclick = getSpecificFeed('events');
}

Scale Broken In IE7 When Using Origin Argument
Mar 19, 2010I've been trying to show a div using jQuery's show function with the scale effect. My code works fine in Firefox. When I test it in IE7, it breaks. I narrowed it down to either the origin argument of the scale effect, or the time argument of the show function (which seems unlikely). Like this:
Works in IE7, italics added to show commented code better:
Code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#hover").hover(
function() {$("#content_show").show("scale",{percent: 100, direction: 'vertical'});},//, origin: ['center','center']},500);},
[Code]....
Also, not as important, but what is the syntax of the origin property? What values can I use in it?
Regular Expression As String Argument?
Feb 24, 2006I'm finishing my javascript form validator (only text fields for now) and here's one of the last things that's left.
I'm using class names of input elements as parameters for my validator. To find them i use Element.hasClassName(id, class) method from prototype library. I want to implement minlength parameter - so i grab a regexp tutorial and after a minute i had something like this minlength[[1-9][0-9]*], which finds minlength[1], minlength[666] and so on.
Great, but how to pass this as a paramter to hasClassName method, which requires string as a className?
How To Create Argument Defaults For Function
Mar 2, 2010How can I create argument defaults for a function? I have this function (the purpose of the lines I included were to set defaults if the user forget to input something simply to prevent an error.
Code:
addHSLink = function (hsElem, hsUrl, hsType, hsTitle, hsWidth, hsHeight) { //hsElem[string], hsUrl[string], hsType[string], hsTitle[string], hsWidth[string/number], hsHeight[string/number]
var jQElem = $(hsElem);
if (typeof hsUrl !== 'string') {
hsUrl = '[URL]';
} if (typeof hsTitle !== 'string') {
hsTitle = '';
} if ((typeof hsWidth !== 'string' && isNaN(parseFloat(hsWidth))) || hsWidth !== 'number') {
hsWidth = 800;
} if ((typeof hsHeight !== 'string' && isNaN(parseFloat(hsHeight))) || hsHeight !== 'number') {
hsHeight = 600;
}
//Some other code
}
I would like to save some programming space and time by finding another way to set defaults. I saw somewhere that you could set a default in the arguments list
Code:
function someFunction(aVariable = false) {
//some code
}
But when I try to do this with all my arguments, I get the error:
"Missing ) after formal parameters".

View 9 Replies View RelatedBug Testing In IE8 - Invalid Argument Error ?
Jun 24, 2011I'm testing my webpage in IE8. In firefox it looks and runs greag, but in IE 8, one issue I'm having is this: I have a button that opens a popup window. Works fine in Firefox, but I get 'invalid argument' error in IE8 and the window does not open. I've enabled at a whim some scripting things in the Internet Options.
Here's the code. The "invalid argument" occurs on the window.open call.
In addition, is there any way to have that tile I've given it, "my Site..." appear in the window header? Right now it's not appearing at all in either browser.
Send An Event Object As An Argument?

Problems With Objects, Argument.caller And SetTimeout
Jul 23, 2005the structure of my source code is like this:
<script>
C = function(){
//some initialization
}
C.prototype.start = function{
//some action
setTimeout(arguments.caller.callee, "200");
}
var obj = new C();
obj.start();
</script>
This should execute the method start every 200 milisec, but (in some cases) it gives me an error because arguments.caller is null. Is there a "direct" method to use setTimeout without this arguments? stuff?
BTW: I'm working with IE Version >= 5.0
Is there a better solution to get start work?

View 1 Replies View RelatedJQuery :: Invalid Argument Line 12 1.3.2 IE 7 And 8rc1
Mar 8, 2009I have just upgraded one of our development sites to 1.3.2 and ui 1.7. I have also updated all of the plugins (forms,validate,thickbox,calculation,blockUI,autogrow) to the latest versions which should all be compatible with 1.3.2 and the site is working perfectly in Firefox 3 on OS X and XP. However on IE8rc1 and in IE7 compat mode I am getting an Invalid Argument error reported at line 12 of jquery-1.3.2.min.js. That is the usual really helpful IE error message and I have been unable to track down the source of the problem. I have noticed that some people have seen this problem with the ui.accordion and 1.7 was supposed to have fixed the issue. Does anyone know of a fix (apart from banning the use of IE - if only)? If I could get the error in FF I could at least use Firebug to debug it. I think I might need to comment out each plugin and see if I can trace the source of the error.
