Building SVG Document Using DOM Interface Inside HTML Document
Mar 17, 2007
Normally an SVG document is loaded/parsed/interpreted inside an HTML
document using an 'object' (or 'embed') element, although there are
supposedly other ways too. The problem is, the SVG document must be
static this way.
I want to use the DOM interface to build SVG dynamically inside an HTML
document. I am guessing I can build it inside HTML within an 'object' (or
maybe 'iframe'?) element.
My intentions/goals:
In Javascript, I construct an object 'embedSVG' which has properties and
methods for creating valid SVG elements and setting their attributes and
attribute values.
During construction, the SVG document is created with its root element.
During debugging in FF 2.0 (I'll work on an MSIE-compatible format later),
I am using the Mozilla DOM Inspector and comparing nodes when the
'object' element is loading a valid external SVG document, and when I am
appending the child representing the SVG document created by the DOM
functions.
However the child node (#document) does not specify 'svg' as the root
element, but instead 'HTML'. Something is not working.
Here is the relevant code in 'ScriptTest.html' which is the HTML in which
the SVG is supposed to be embedded. Below it is the relevant code for
'svglib.js' which is supposed to contain code for building the SVG
dynamically.
What this code is supposed to do is load the HTML page and execute the
anonymous script, and draw a navy blue-bordered yellow rectangle on a
blank page. This is similar to the example in the SVG 1.1 W3C
Recommendation on page 202 of the 719-page PDF.
I am getting an exception when embedSVG object placeInHTML() method is
called: NS_ERROR_DOM_HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR. I find in DOM Inspector in
spite of or after the exception that a document is placed as a child of
the object element, but it is HTML, with a default 'head', 'title',
'body' elements placed.
I am working on creating a document where you check a bunch of checkboxes to select what to include, then click on a button. A function then opens a new window and writes the HTML code to run scripts in .js files to populate the page. Code:
Suppose a HTML document has a iframe. Using javascript,I want to detect ,on load of the html document, whether the body of the iframe document is ready to be displayed.I want to be able to overwrite the the body contents (before it actullay loads) of the iframe.can I do it with jquery? say if ,HTML doc is
I have some code that changes a PDF file in another frame using:
parent.frame.document.location.href = "PDF File"
This code works fine the first time it is called. But if a PDF file is in that frame and the code is called again IE gives me an error:
"no such interface supported"
I have used this code for the past 5 years and it has worked fine with Adobe Acrobat 4-6 it is only 7 that started to cause me grief. It is only IE that has this problem, Netscape seems to work fine.
I have checked the web and talked to Adobe and have yet to find a solution.
I'm working on a website that will basically embed a widget/frame sent by a handler into a user's current page. The user basically adds a script tag to where they would like the HTML to be. The script tag has their settings and is basically a document.write that calls all the code that we want displayed.So here's my problem. We have a map that we need to add in a specific section, and to get the map we have to call another script tag. So we end up having a script tag (map) embedded in another script tag (the code for the widget/frame) or we end up having to document.write inside a document.write.
Now this works just fine and as expected in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. However, Internet Explorer and Opera wait until the first document.write is completely finished before calling the embedded one. Of course the problem with this, is that it takes the map out of the document's flow and just appends it to the bottom left of the page. Since the rest of the page has already been called, there's no way to move the interior "map" script.Any ideas? Basically just trying to figure out how (if even possible) to render an embedded script tag in Internet Explorer and be able to place it properly. I've tried everything that I can think of, including AJAX and Google's unescape script.
Somehow, the isLoaded property doesnt seem to be set to true when i create an instance of the class. I tryied passing the object instance through an argument ... this.xml.onload = this.fileLoaded(this) ... MyClass.prototype.fileLoaded(obj){ obj.isLoaded = true;}
I've been trying to create an inline SVG document inside a div using javascript. I cannot seem to figure this out. What I want to do is create a <svg> element and apply some shapes and colors to it via javascript (or ecmascript if I need to). I have googled this and found that you need to have a valid XHTML+XML document in order for this to work.
I'd like to do to do something similar as document.write() but instead of creating a new document,I would like to write inisde a div. What I have is a variable with the name of a url that the client has given me from a prompt. And now I want to write that as a link inside the div.
My application uses Web pages whose grid is defined by several tables. I noticed a funny behavior on IE and Firefox which is giving me pains.
Apparently, when the browser renders a <table> tag and before it reaches the </table> end tag, any document.write actions in Javascript get deferred execution till closure of table instead of occuring at runtime as they are parsed. Code:
I've got a js file where all the functions are wrapped inside $(document).ready(). I want to call one of the function from within the HTML but it says that the function "is not defined".
I am writing some javascript that when the user clicks on a link, it hides or displays content inside a div tag. I have been trying to add some code that would only allow for one div tag to be displayed at a time.
Here is where I originally got the code [url]
Whenever I run this code I get this error:
This is the JavaScript that runs when the user clicks the link:
I have a little JS app that is a glorified calculator which I posted the code for below. My code uses the document object to replace the html in the "content" <div> and works great.However, I want to add an inline style in order to change the background of the input (readonly field with an id of "coutput") based on either of the global variables named "MJPD" or "IJPD", (depending on the switch case selected in the user prompt at the beginning of the script.)Simplified....if the value of MJPD is less than 4.6, I want the "coutput" field's background to be red, else be green.The same goes for IJPD, except the threshold for red will be <3.83.Code and what I have tried is below.
<script language="JavaScript"> var MJPD = 1; var IJPD = 1;
I have a webpage (on a Drupal website) which is currently using the jquery tabs javascript. Each tab dynamically loads content through an Ajax Call.Drupal has a javascript file called tabledrag.js which allows the users to order the elements of a table by dragging them up and down in the list and this will reflect the elements position when you submit the form. When the content of the Ajax tab loads, I need the document.ready code (or drupal.behaviours, the equivelent) to fire off.However, this code has already fired when the page first loaded, as opposed to the content inside the ajax tab. How can I force reload the tabledrag.js so that it will re-run its document.ready behaviour?
Determine what the previous page was that the user was viewing, even if the user arrived at my site by through the use of a browser function (history, location bar, refresh, etc.). Is this possible?
I'm not wuite sure how document.history functions - what degree of privacy is given to the user and to what extent can web pages get URLs from the user's history?
I am trying to make a function run if the mouse is moved over the document but when using the object onmousemove it seems to run the code even if the mouse is still over then document, how can I make it so if the mouse is over the document but isn't moving then don't run the code but once the mouse moves run the code? This is the code I made to handle the mouse move collections.
[Code]..
But with this code it runs even when the user doesn't move their mouse and the notification box pops up every second as the code seems to think a still mouse is a moving mouse.
I was thinking about having a run once system but that would mean if the mouse moves it runs once and then if the mouse moves again the code will not run as it has already ran before.
Just wondering - is there some trick that allows this to be done of which I am not aware? Specifically, I would like to use XPath to query the _current_ HTML document in IE.
I am sure this question has been raised and answered before, but I can't seem to find an answer that works for me. I hope I will get an exact response here. Here's my issue - I have my index.html that has its own $(document).ready method and everything pretty much works within it. I am trying to dynamically load a page to replace part of index.html (let' say the #inner_content ID) -
I want to switch a big function from a document.onkeydown = function to a document.onkeypress = function, or vice versa depeding on the type of browser.
However it is quite a big function so it's pretty much out of the question to have it appear in full twice.
Any ideas how to change the target event (onkeydown/onkeypress) without writing the whole function twice?
I have been searching for a way to trap changes done to the document object (mainly by the function document.write();).
Example of code that doesn't work:
function myFunction() { ed.document.onchange = doFunction(document.body.innerHTML); ed.document.open(); ed.document.write('Hello'); ed.document.close(); }
function do_function(body) { alert(body); }
It only fires when the page loads, not when I change the text. You are free to use any event that works, but i think onchange was the one to fit this problem. The alert will write the initialpage, but will never write the tekst 'Hello' that is the new change.
Any javagurus out there know a solution to pick up any fired events triggered by document.write();
I am trying to write a bunch of text onto a new document using document.write() and somehow need to format it to include line breaks.
For example: Code JavaScript: document.write(Line 1); document.write(Line 2);
I have tried including and it does not work. I have also tried document.writeln() and that also does not work. From what I have found on the Internet, one (if not both) of those methods should have worked.
I want to use document.write to output the values of an array. If the array is too long, it totally ignores the width of the container div. How do I get the values to word-wrap when they get to the end of the container?
I've searched on this forum, and also googled for the answer but can't find a solution. I'm still fairly new to Javascript.
Suppose I have an html document with javascript, opened in my web browser. I need my script to generate another html (which just displays some text), and open it in new tab automatically. How is it done? Conside this code:
