Cannot Get Alert() To Work

Apr 25, 2010

I want to use a button with an onClick(), but I am missing something in the syntax. For testing, I am using the alert() function.

Function Doesnt Work Without An Alert()

Apr 25, 2006

I have this code in actionscript that calls javascript:

actionscript:

zoom_in = function () {
var tw1:Tween = new Tween(mc_1, "_width", Regular.easeOut,
mc_1._width, 0, 1, false); //OK
var tw2:Tween = new Tween(mc_1, "_height", Regular.easeOut,
mc_1._height, 0, 1, false); //OK
ExternalInterface.call("zoom");
}

javascript:

function zoom()
{
top.resizeTo(1024, 768);
self.moveTo(0,0);
}

Everything works perfectly on Firefox 1.5 but not on IE 6+

in IE the "zoom" function doesn't work, but if I add an alert it DOES work:

function zoom()
{
alert('this works');
top.resizeTo(1024, 768);
self.moveTo(0,0);
}

JQuery :: Plugin Does Not Work Unless Put Alert In

Aug 20, 2011

I am using simpleTreeMenu plugin and it is working fine except for the following. I am building the tree dynamically. If I put in an alert ( //alert("Herem1" + ulidp); )prior to the call of the simpleTreeMenu() function, the page works as expected. It allows me to expand and close the tree, and an alert appears if I pick the selected leafs. But if I take out the alert prior to the call of the simpleTreeMenu() function, the page is not working as expected. The tree hangs, it will not expand once closed. It is like the simpeTreeMenu needs a bit of hang time between the unorderd list (the tree) being built and the invokation of the simpleTreeMenu() function. Does anyone have an idea why this might be the case?

Animating Image Does Not Work Until Add An Alert?

May 11, 2011

I wrote a function which animates an image which looks similar to this:

function animate()
{
var image = document.getElementById("frontImage");
var cssLeft = image.style.left;

[Code]....

This seems to be working fine. However, the image goes directly to its final position (100px to the right) and does not go through all the intermediate positions. As soon as I add an alert (the one which is now commented) everything works fine.

JQuery :: Display An Alert Box - Code Does Not Work?

Sep 28, 2009

I'm trying to run through the simplest tutorials on jquery and for some reason I can't get any of the jquery code to work.I've downloaded jquery and I've made sure that this file is in the same directory as jquery-1.3.2.js.This is the code taken from the tutorial:

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">[code]....

when the user clicks on the link it shouldn't take them to [url]....instead it should display an alert box. but it takes me to[url]...every time.

Curious Case - Code Does Not Work Without Alert();

Feb 5, 2009

I am putting together a simple edit in place script. For some reason, in order for for the editEffect function I've created to work I need to use the alert function as seen in the code below. I can't figure out the cause of the problem and I believe the root cause is also creating other problems - i.e. in the cancelEdit function the argument "targetElement" is not alerted, but it is successfully submitted as an argument to another function.

/* Edit in place javascript code */
function editLightOn(element){
element.style.backgroundColor = "#ffc";
}
function editLightOff(element){
element.style.backgroundColor = "#FFFFFF";
}
[Code]..

Computing Buttons To Work And Alert Messages?

May 13, 2011

so here is my "Project" for this class

[URL]

and here are the directions where im stuck at, just right click view source to see the code. I believe what i am doing wrong is where i enter my variables and i dont know how to get an alert message to pop up using an if statement as well as getting the values for the distances to show up correctly

directions:

8. Now we will write some JavaScript to validate the input. We don’t want the user to be able to enter the same origin and destination city when they book a ticket. So we will use an if statement to check that. If they have entered the same origin and destination city then we will tell them that by using an alert statement and make them select again. All of your code to validate the input code goes in between the single quotes of the onClick event in the Calculate Fare button. Follow these steps: a) Assign the value of the origin city to a variable called origin Note that the value that gets assigned to origin is actually 0, 60, 90, 120 or 150 (and NOT Bellingham, Everett, Seattle etc.) since the value we gave to the each element of the list was its distance from Bellingham. This will make our lives easier later when we compute the fare. b) Assign the value of the destination city to a variable called destination in a similar fashion. c) Write an if statement that will test whether origin is equal to destination and if it is then do two things. i. Issue an alert message that says input different origin and destination cities ii. Stop the execution of the JavaScript code in the onClick event. Use return; as the second statement inside the if statement. Remember to use curly braces to denote that two statements are contained within the if statement. Your if statement will have the following structure to it.

if (<put the test you want to do here>)
{
alert(<put the message here>);
return;

Ajax :: Script Update Doesn't Work Without Alert() Statement?

Nov 19, 2010

I have a JavaServer demo I'm working on with a bit of JavaScript and thought I'd try adding some AJAX. Its a forum, and the idea is that a post window is revealed when the reply message is clicked. This button is in a jsp page has an onclick attribute to the showEditor() function below. A cancel button is similarly hooked up to hideEditor(), and the submit button calls copy() with a onsubmit tag. A servlet sends a response which has both the HTML for the post area (its a rich-text editor in an iframe, with a bunch of buttons above it much this one) and a Javascript object called Editor that has handlers for all the buttons and sets up the iframe so it is editable.

I actually got it to work okay, until I removed the last alert() I was using for debugging. Then the iframe stops being editable, and the editor.appendQuote() function either doesn't work or doesn't run.

This isn't terribly important because all AJAX accomplishes here is not sending all the post-related HTML and Javascript unless it is actually needed, which isn't all that much, but it would be nice to figure it out anyway.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var editor = null;
function showEditor(node) {
if (node != null) {

Alert() Statement Lets Code Work, Remove It, Code Errors Out

Dec 17, 2007

I am a novice, almost to an intermediate-level JavaScript guy, so much of this is new to me. I appreciate your patience reading this.

I have a routine that creates some HTML on the fly (updateFilters() function) and after the HTML is created, I attempt to access some fields (elements) on the form itself.

I works fine if I place an alert() statement after the HTML is created, but when I remove, the code errors out.

I have tried the setTimeout() statement, but I cannot grab the element --- undefined or null is returned. It seems that the form is the only element I can get a handle on --- everything else is undefined or null...

Here is the code:

function editQuery() {
var f;
var x;
var myForm = document.forms[0];
// Get the row filters that were used in the last query..
for (f = 1; f < 16; f++) {
var filter = eval("myForm.FilterList_" + f);
if (filter.selectedIndex > 0) {
var methodElement = element("FilterMethod_" + f);
var methodIndex = methodElement.selectedIndex;
var savedFilterMethodValue = methodElement.options[methodIndex].text;
var choicesElement = element("FilterChoices_" + f);
var choicesIndex = choicesElement.selectedIndex;
if (isNaN(choicesIndex)) {
var savedFitlerValues = choicesElement.value;
}
else {
var savedFitlerValues = choicesElement.options[choicesIndex].text;
}
updateFilters(filter); // update the filters
// take the saved methods and values and then update the selections
// Alert here makes the code work..
// alert("Try this");
// Wait for HTML..
setTimeout("completeEdit()", 1000);
function completeEdit() {
// Since the object was updated, get the object again..
var methodElement = element("FilterMethod_" + f);
for (x = 0; x < methodElement.options.length; x++) {
if (methodElement.options[x].text == savedFilterMethodValue) {
methodElement.options[x].selected = true;
break;
}
else {
methodElement.options[x].selected = false;
}
}
// Since the object was updated, get the object again..
var choicesElement = element("FilterChoices_" + f);
for (x = 0; x < choicesElement.options.length; x++) {
if (choicesElement.options[x].text == savedFitlerValues) {
choicesElement.options[x].selected = true;
break;
}
else {
choicesElement.options[x].selected = false;
}
}
// Only display next row if f = 2..
// If only one row was used, no reason display the next row..
if (f == 2) {
displayNextFilter(f - 1); // display it
}
}
clearTimeout(timeOut);
}
}
}

Do I have to pass the object (the form, the elements) to the completeEdit() function in the setTimeout() statement?

Jquery :: Create Some Links With Window.open Method - When I Alert What Is Being Built, The Links Don't Work?

Mar 10, 2010

I'm using jquery/ajax to create some links with window.open method. Here's the relevant code:

$("#content").empty();
$.ajax({
type: "GET",[code]..........

Basically, when you click a link a function is called with a parameter based on the particular link you run. Then the code runs through an xml file, and if the parent of the nodes I've cyling through has a value equal to the parameter past to the function, that node is used to create a new link with window.open function attached to it.It all works, or seems to, and when I alert what is being built, it looks right to me, yet the links don't work.I've attached a copy of one of the alerts of one of the links as it's built.

Onclick="alert('hello');return False;" Does Not Work In IE7?

Dec 5, 2006

Normally, a piece of code such as

<a href="http://www.yahoo.com" onclick="alert('hello');return
false;">link</a>

will stop the browser from actually going to href's destination.
However, this is not the case with the IE7 I am using. What has
changed?

IE7 version: 7.0.5730.11. Update versions: 0

Has anyone bumped into this problem before? How do I get around it?

AJAX :: Cross-browsing Request Work Around - Every Browser Doesn't Work ?

Jun 14, 2010

The "Permission denied" cross site issue.

I have to check from my external domain if a service is running on localhost:8080 of a local machine.

I'm using XMLHttpRequest to do it.

I'm checking a local-web-server, not a file.

Every browser doesn't work, but Firefox. So I'm looking for a work-aorund.

An iframe? a flash swf? an applet java? HTA applications?

A side question is, why does FF work? Because it's a local-web-server?
