BASE HREF And A HREF="#" Onclick="..."
Jul 6, 2006
I've looked for this and I wouldn't know what the best practice would be
for solving the following problem.
We use a BASE tag in our HTML pages. Now we have some links that use the
<A HREF="#" onclick="...">Hello</Amethod to invoke a JavaScript.
However, because of the BASE tag, when clicking a link containing only a
# as 'href' it will load the root index.html file. What I want is it to
do nothing and execute the onclick handler.
Now I have two possible solutions:
- Replace the # with javascript:... and remove the onclick handler.
- Replace the A HREF by a SPAN having the same style as a link.
Both however, I've learn it isn't good practice to use javascript: in a
link. The SPAN as link would be a sort of Sim-HREF, which will probably
end up being trouble (span:hover anyone?). Anyone has a viable solution,
cause I must be missing something.

I'm trying to get the href attribute from the base tag in the document
head. The following does not seem to work... any ideas what I'm doing
wrong?
if(!(document.getElementsByTagName) ||
!(basehrefs = document.getElementsByTagName('base')) ||
!(basehrefs.length) || !(basehrefs.length > 0) ||
!(basehrefs[0].getAttribute) ||
!(basehref = basehrefs[0].getAttribute('href')) )
basehref = ''
This is essentially a very cautious version of:
basehref = doument.getElementsByTagName('base')[0].getAttribute('href')
The big hairy if just provides checks to make sure everything can be
done and provide a contingency if it doesn't...

I need to make a drop-down menu for my multi-level website. I need all the links on this dropdown to work on every page, no matter on what level (subfolders, sub-subfolders etc.) it's called out.
i have a base href tag on every page set to my index page the links in my drop down menu look like this location='supplies/painting.htm'
where 'supplies' is the folder contained in the main root folder, so it should be working but it's not. Whenever i click on this link while i'm in the 'about_us' folder, it tries to bring out the page 'about_us/supplies/painting.htm'
Only thing left to add is that this script is included "as is" with dreamweaver, and thats why i have no idea how it works. I'd code it myself, but the client wants it that way Code:

I'm using the following code (simplified version) to call a Json file, parse it and on each iteration, create a div with an ID of "tab". I'm using this with jQuery UI .tab() to create a listing with entries which have three tabs. Anyhow, the principle seems to work except that when I examine what's happening behind the scenes using Firefox console, I see that each href in the html code produced is causing the Json function to re-fire using the href as it's url target.

I am having some issues with getting a variable from an onclick event with javascript.
$('#preview_logo').append('<img src="'+fileObj.filePath+'" height="100px" hspace="5" /> '+fileObj.name+' uploaded.<a href="javascript:;" id="dele_image" onclick="del_image('+fileObj.filePath+','+fileObj.name+');">Upload Different Image</a><br>');
This is for uploadify script for previewing an image that is uploaded, it creates the link fine, but won't trigger the function "del_image" unless I delete the parameters in the onclick, which leads me to believe it is something to do with my quoting. Here is the function:

I am creating a send to a friend link on my site. The link will open a pop up window, which contains a form.
I have a function that opens the centered pop up window, and it is called like so (the function declaration resides in an external script):
Code:
onClick="newWindow('http://www.mysite.com/send.php','',âÆ',ò“','')"
I now need to append the current page's URL to the end of the URL ike so:
onClick="newWindow('http://www.mysite.com/send.php?page=xxx','',âÆ',ò“','')"
This is sso that I can then use PHP in the pop up toget the variable from the query string.
I know that I can use location.href to get the current page url, but am not sure how I would include it in the onClick.
I have tried the following:
onClick="newWindow('http://www.mysite.com/send.php?page=location.href','',âÆ',ò“','')"
but that doenst work...
Has anybody got any ideas?

how I can have a popup window appear centred with scrollbars? The width and height must be changed for each popup. I need the popup window link to be placed in a href not as onclick. My client will be placing popup window link into their website via Adobe Contribute, so that is why I am asking for the whole thing not to be onclick.

Im a PHP developer and am quite new with javascript. I wanted some help on the hyperlink onclick event. Bascially I output a list of a href hyperlinks on a html page that goes all the way to the bottom of the screen. I wanted to add a onclick event to the a href tag that would pust the user right to the top of the page. I want to achieve this using javascript onclick event.

I have the following code that I use to set the onclick function to top.location.href, but I need a way to extract the existing location.href from the onclick function, so then I can re-purpose it in the new onclick function. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
<script type="text/javascript">
var links = new Array();
links = document.getElementsByTagName("td");
for(var i=0;i<links.length;i++){
var tempfunc = links[i].onclick;
//*****EXTRACT THE URL***** NEED THIS PIECE //
var url = "http://www.sitepoint.com"; //say this is the url you extracted
links[i].onclick=function(){window.top.location.href=url};
}
</script>

Sounds simple right? Why the heck doesn't this code work?
links = document.links;
for(var i=0; i<links.length; i++)
{
links[i].onclick= "this.href = 'whatever.html'";
}

I'm trying to setup a page that uses JavaScript in a text link to submit a form:
<a href="do.htm" onclick="javascript:document.forms.Q01.submit();">
I also have added a fallback page in the href (do.htm) in case users have JavaScript disabled. But the JavaScript doesn't seem to be working. When I click the link it always goes to the fallback page, and doesn't submit the form.
I've tried swaping the order in the anchor tag (JS first, href second):
<a onclick="javascript:document.forms.Q01.submit();" href="do.htm">
and the same thing happens.
If I remove the href value:
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:document.forms.Q01.submit();">
the JS does execute properly.
How can I get the JS to execute by default for browsers that support it, and the href be the backup for browsers that dont support it?

I have a few input buttons per page:
<input type="button" value="MyButton" onclick="location='[URL]'">
I want to convert them to:
<a href="[URL]"><span>MyButton</span></a>
How can I convert that with jquery? I try to get the onlick val but jquery or javascript seems to convert onclick to a function. I have this, but it's not quite right, I'm trying to just move the onclick data to the link, but I'd rather do it with href.
$(":button").each(function(){
var ocval = $(this).attr("onclick").val();
$(this).replaceWith("<a class="button" href="javascript:void(0);"
onclick=""+ ocval +""><span>" + $(this).val() + "</span></a>");
});

I am in the process of creating a billboard script for our company front page which will switch between two images. I am using the following script as a base: [URL]
I am eager to learn coding, but am still a novice at it so I was wondering if anyone could assist me with adding the following functionality:
1. Rather than (or perhaps in addition to) having the two images change based on a timer, I'd like to be able to insert a "next" arrow. Therefore I will need assistance in coding a button to change the images from "ad_1" to "ad_2" which is currently done automatically by the interval timer
2. I'd like to make the images clickable with unique destinations (so when you click on "ad_1" it will take you to "link 1", "ad_2" will take you to "link 2"
Below is my current code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>

I am looking for a generic javascript function to identify the form with in which a element exists, thus developer can avoid coding like document.forms[index].submit() - where they are sure, they want the form with in which this element exists is to be submitted. This way when forms are introduced at top level the code can remain unchanged, else every form introduce above in the DOM will result in increasing the index by one.
The code is given below. While doing so i am stuck with 2 problems
P1: In the code, you can see i am giving a explicit 'break' in the code. If i don't do so the code seems to be looping. Obviously i am missing some basic.
P2: I am able to pass 'this' for anchor element by name="xy"
<a href="#" name="xy"
in its onclick function by which, in the javascript function i move up the DOM.
While i am unable to do that on the anchor element given below since this function is now on the href attribute.
<a name="xy1" href="javascript:doFormSubmit(this);">Q test</a>
Hence the script fails. Code:

I am using this javascript code to run 'onclick' to change my href class style. It works to change the style, but when I click on the next menu item, the previous one is not reverted back to how it was previously, but the formatting is stripped away leaving the link purple with no background image. How do I get it to revert to the original class which is set?
Here is the javascript :-
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
var Lst;
function CngClass(obj){
if (Lst) Lst.className='';
obj.className='menu1';
Lst=obj;
}
/*]]>*/
</script>
Here is the relevant CSS :-
.menu {
background: url('../images/productblack.jpg') repeat;
width: 100%;
line-height: 24px;
float:left;
display:inline;
font-family: Verdana;
color : #ffffff;
font-size: 8pt;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: left;
font-weight:bold;
} .....
Here is the HTML :-
<div id="masterdiv">
<div onclick="SwitchMenu('sub1')"><a class="menu" onclick="CngClass(this);" href="javascript:nothing()">Â
RESISTORS</a></div>
<span class="submenu" id="sub1">
<a class="productsubmenu" href="resistors.html">Surface Mount</a><br> .....
Here is a working page with it (the product menu on the right) [URL]

Can anyone assist me with what I am trying to do with the following
code (six different scenarios to try to make the functionality work
correctly)?
I want to always (and ONLY) display in the status bar 'Symantec
Corporation' whenever anyone mouses over (onMouseOver) my image or
link OR when one clicks while holding the left mouse down (onClick) on
the same image or link. Upon releasing the mouse (onMouseOut), the
status bar should be 'blank'. I need the link to open in a new window
via my function openWindow(URL) code.
What is happening in most of the six scenarios, is that when one
clicks the link, either the function doesn't engage, but rather the <a
href= takes effect instead OR that status bar shows
'javascript:openWindow('http://www.symantec.com/');' when one clicks
while holding the left mouse down (onClick) on the image or link.
Additionally, for only the link, I need the CSS/style to show 'red'
when one mouses over (onMouseOver) it and then change to 'blue' upon
releasing the mouse (onMouseOut).
How about integrating 'style="cursor:hand"' into the code or perhaps
setting some of the data via a <div> or <span> snippet? Code:

I've searched the web as well as I can for a solution to this problem
but have found nothing and just don't know enough about JavaScript to
figure out what's going. What I'm trying to do is convert this script:
<a href="#"
onclick="MM_goToURL('parent.frames['movieA']','color2.html');return
document.MM_returnValue">TEST</a>
....to something that I can use within a Flash movie, which as far as I
can tell means that it needs to reside in the 'href' (GetURL) attribute
instead of a separate 'onclick' event. I've tried to do this with this
test version:
<ahref="javascript:MM_goToURL('parent.frames['movieA']','color2.html');return
document.MM_returnValue">TEST2</a>
....which seems to be working in Firefox/Mac, but nowhere else (IE and
Safari are the only other browsers I really care about). I'm hoping
that you JS pros will know immediately what the problem is here (other
than the author not knowing what he's doing). Code:

Can someone help me on this little problem. I am using the following
code in an xsl page.
The directed page is written in the javascript: submitOnClick();
<a href="#">
<xsl:attribute name="onClick">submitOnClick();</xsl:attribute>
Main Menu
</a>
The problem is that when href is given the # sign, the moment i click
on the link it first jumps to the top of the page, before moving to
the directed page.
This can be seen when the page is longer than the screen size.
Is there any other solution to rectify that problem ..........
