Is it possible to use javascript to call css, as in having css related things in a js file, and have it being loaded at the same time as the script is running?A friend of mine was asking me and I told him I would check on it because I wasn't sure if you could have any css in a javascript file.
I got an [object error] from IE 7.0.5730.11 when moving the <script src="..." type="text/javascript" /tag from the <headpart to the <bodysection of a HTML file.
Is not possibile to include Javascript code via <script src="..." type="text/javascript" /from the <bodysection, instead from the <headone? If yes, anyone has any idea of which the problem could be? If not, how can I programmatically include a javascript external file inside the <bodypart of a HTML file, for example, using Javascript to some particular native functions?
I am developing a series of web pages that use JS, and they are all fairly similar except for some very small changes. What I am hoping to do is create one page that accepts a parameter from location.search and then uses that to include a JS file with the appropriate parts that are different from the main page. I am aware that I could do this the other way round (ie. several different pages that include a set of core functions etc.), but that will not work for this project.
I'm trying to execute a bat file on the server in javascript. The javascript sits on the server as well. I'm currently using:
document.location.href='testme.bat'
However the only thing it does is just opens up the bat file and shows my bat code in the browser. How can I execute the batch file instead of opening it and viewing it in the browser?
I'm looking for a way to include javascript files from within a ".js" file. This would allow me to only need to link to one ".js" file, and yet still organize my functions into non gargantuan files for easy editing. I'm hoping there is some sort of include or import directive that I could use. Or if no such directive exists, I'm wondering if anyone has written one which I could use.
I need to do this without any server side scripting. For now at least, the html is being used locally with local files. Code:
I noticed that some sites use <script src='fineName.js?ver=XXX'></script(even google) Someone told me that it's for script changes, means - if the file in server has been changed than the new XXX will demand to load the new file. I find it hard to believe that it's true.
does javascript can parse text-based files, same as vbscript do? I want do a sorting of large massive of eml files stored in folder: just to arrange(sort) eml files inside that folder by recipent email ("To:" field) (there is different data in "To:" field due different senders) Just want that script parse eml files, looked for specified emails address or name in 'To' field and arrange this emails at the top. This probably will require ActiveX.
I would like to include text from an external file in my html file. This is normally done with <object> or <iframe> but in this case the style sheet and internal links (like <a href="#positiononpage">) do not work. So I thought of writing a little script which does the following
- open the file http://something.com/textfile.htm - put the content of that file in variable "var" - document.write(var)
Is this possible? (also without using activeX objects)
I there any possible way to set this up so the menu is in a separate javascript file? This way I could just link to the menu on the pages I need it to show up.
I'm looking for one of those scripts with you can add another browse for file box to upload files. Eg: as u see in attachments on webmail sites. Do any of u have a simple script like this or can link me to one?
What i need in the script is to be able to: -Set the maximum number of browse for files boxes that appear -Check if the same file is added more than once -have a link next to each file to remove a selected file
Kind of like this: Add a file -> Click on this to get
File name - <selectbox> - <browse button> - <remove file>
<remove file> removes the file next to it so another can be added upto the limit set.
What I want to do is create a HTML form that allows the user to enter data into about 10 fields, and then based on the entered data, writes out data strings to a text file. I am attempting to create a form for entering simple rectangle CAD data via a HTML form, which will be written to a text file, and then imported into a CAD program.
The form would contain prompt boxes for things like length, width, radius size, step/repeat, etc. When the user hits the "SUBMIT" button, the data strings would be written out to the filename the user specified. Below is an example of data strings to be ouputted. Variables are &L, &W, &R, &STEPX, &STEPY, &XN, &YN.
What is the correct way to incorporate a .js file into an HTML file *IF* the .js file on a hard disk?
What I have tried is listed below but it does not work... When trying to access a function module in one of the .js files, I get an error that the function module is not defined (which would lead me to believe that it is not being imported with the .js "src" instruction.
I have a situation where I'm displaying some information in a table on a web page. I've given the user the ability to make several different "queries" and show different sub-sets of the data.
I would like to add a button to the page that would allow the user to create an .XLS file that would contain the current contents of the table. I realize that I could create it on the server and allow him to download it but I'd rather let him create it right there on his machine. Is it possible to have a script that can do such a thing?
As we all know, JavaScript is client side and php is server side, (the php code is 'allowed' to do stuff on the server that JavaScript cannot). The problem with php is that it timeout after a while, (and the user also has no clue as to what is going on for a long time).
I need to run a script on the server that could take a very long time.
So what I was thinking is mixing both JavaScript and PHP Something like,
<script> var endvalue = 1000; /* some number that the server can calculate quickly */ var i = 0 while (i<=endvalue) { /** call a php file that will do some work somefunction.php?someNumber=i */ } </script>
That way the server does the work, while the client keeps it going. Ideally I would also get a return value/string from the php script.
Is there any sample code to use Javascript to load and display a text file?
It will be best if the user can select files using some kind of explorer. If that's complex, a text box to specify the file name will be fine as well. Once a text file is selected, I just need to display it in a text box.
I am starting to find more web pages that are using a query parameters after the JavaScript file.
Example can be found at www.opensourcefood.com. Within the source you'll see: <script src="/shared/scripts/common.js?revision=1.6" type="text/javascript">.
I am trying to see if there is any big deal to this or a best practice that is starting to creep up in the JavaScript community. If this is used only as a way to distinguish what file of JavaScript being used why not append something inside the file? Has anyone else seen this or know of more reasons to do this?
I have an external .js file to my webpaage. Can i change the value of these variables from my htm page, so that they are changed for good.
ie - i know this wont work, but it is an example.
externalFile.js ------------- var alpha = "This is some text"
frontend.htm -------------- <form name="changer" method="get" action="externalFile.js"> <input name="alpha" type="text" id="alpha" value="this is some new text that will completely replace the old text in the file"> </form>
i'm having trouble writing to a text file with javascript, i've tried writing to a local text file on my own PC, and I've also tried writing to a local file on my own server, (which I have all permissions to do so...) I'd really like to write to a file that resides on my own web server. Code:
I'm trying to use a remote file for the purpose of setting the value of a single variable. It contains a single line of code: var rev_date = "R10-03-07";
In the HTML, it is called like this: <script language="javascript" src="http://some.domain.com/revdate.js"></script>
There is a function in the head: function setRevdate() { document.getElementById("revdate").innerHTML = rev_date; }
In the Body: <body onload="setRevdate();">
Then where I want to place the text: <span id="revdate">--</span>
The problem is that the page loads and the onload event seems to happen before the rev_date string object is created and produces a "rev_date not defined" error. If I hit the browser refresh, however, everything works fine and the text is displayed between the span tags. It continues to work thereafter as long as the browser session is not destroyed.
How can I program this to force the browser to wait for the script to be read in and the variable initiated before calling the function?
