Changes Not Showing Until Long Executing Methods Complete
Sep 28, 2010
I currently have a method which calls a number of other methods:
sth like:
Code:
function myMainMethod()
{
smallMethod1();
[Code]....
If I try to Change the color of the text in a button, right before the call to smallMethod1();, changes will not take effect untill the end of smallMEthod4() execution.
Im using IE8 and calls to smallMethod1,2,3,4 are actually calls to methods from an activeX library.
I tried changing the style on the button and then making the call to "myMainMethod()" on a different thread: like
Code:
setTimeout("myMainMethod()",1);
I managed to get things working, it did change before running the methods,.. but what happend was that smallMethods()1,2,3,4 started giving me errors,..
Also If I add an alert right after changing the style things seem to work,.. and the button changes styles before calling all the other methods...
Sth like:
Code:
function myMainMethod()
{
changeButtonColorStyle();
alert('Hi');
smallMethod1();
[Code]....
Also is there a way to create the same effect that the 'alert' does, but without showing an alert window,..? Kind of: "execute everything up to here, and then carry on...."

I am workong on a long polling chat for my site by finding examples on the net and i am using this particular one i found, but am slightly confused as to what i need to add to complete the long polling effect. Currently it loops infinetly isntead of waiting for the server to push a message so its obviously not working.

I have a slogan that is supposed be animated so that one part slides onto the screen, followed by the other part. My understanding of the 'callback function' parameter on the .animate() function is that it's not supposed to execute until the animation is finished. The trouble is, the two functions seem to be executing at the same time (that is, the two parts of the slogan appear on the screen at the same time.) Here is my code:
$(document).ready(function() {
// hide slogan text $('#slogan_1').css('left','270px');
$('#slogan_2').css('top','75px');});
[code]....

I created a method for displaying an object's properties:
As long as renderfunction = false, the object is fine coming out of this function.
However, if I change renderfunction to true, all my properties become undefined. Why isn't this working as I expect it to?

The problem is that "src" would be really long. I have tried and some where along the way, end of the url is cutted down.
Does anyone know how to use POST-method for "img" "src"? Or alternate means for achieving what I am trying to do..

To edit or modify a bookmarklet code, it must be in the form of a multi
line code in a html file or a js file.
But to test or run the bookmarklet, I need to do three things:
1. go to online bookmarklet builder site
2. paste my (multi-line) code there and generate bookmarklet link
3. drag it to toolbar
And I need to go thru these tedious three steps several times because
developing a long bookmarklet (like MyPage) is not like:
write code -test it -done.
but it's like:
write code -test it -it doesn't work. -modify code(put debugging
code) -test it -it still not work -modify code -...
How do you get around with this tediousness? Is there a way to skip the
three steps?

How do you take a long number such as Math.PI and break it out into an array? code...
I suppose that because of the decimal you would have to convert it into a string first? It would be ideal if I could keep the number as a number without converting it to a string, but I'm not sure if that's possible.
Every thread I've found online so far seems to indicate that you need a delimiter between the string you want to split up - that you can't just put every character of a string into an array... but there must be a way.

After a javascript-generated post event (this is a post, not ajax
messaging) the current screen has to be redrawn. But on *long forms*
(longer than a single screen) then the current screen positioning
is lost, and the current form ends up redrawn, with a different
vertical positioning--after the post event.
However, If I sent the x,y mouse position as post parameters,
and if the current widget (that generated the post) had
a well-known anchor tag name, would there be a way
to combine that much information, after the post, in order to redraw
the form close to it's original vertical positioning?
How?

I am hiding a login panel like:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#login").css({marginTop: "-105px"});
});
But in IE 8 it takes very long to hide? I don't like to set it in CSS because if javascript is turned off people can still login as it is visible... is there anyway to make it faster ?

Using jQuery Mobile, when I turn my phone (iPhone 3) into landscape, the width adjusts correctly and then extends. It's too long. It does this with paragraphs as well as lists. Even the [URL] site does this :)
How can I override the width? Is there any way to test iPhone 4? Any of you have one to test the [URL] site in landscape view?

First I have a dropdown menu with a list of 235 countries. When one
country is selected from this list the contents of the next dropdown
menu is decided from a coresponding file containing a huge amount of
cities. The biggest of these files being 6 MB.
Getting different advices I have now to different sets of code doing
this thing. Does anyone know if any of these two sets of code is
suitable for what I want? Code:

I wonder to show the images in a table format... and to set a box of
width 100px and height 100px, is there a way?
Right now, if I set width to 100px, then height can be 180px...
If I set height to 100px, then width can be 260px...
What I really want is, to have the greatest width and greatest height
so long as none of them exceed 100px, and maintaining the aspect
ratio. (I don't want to set both width and height to 100px for the
aspect ratio will be weird...)
so powerful as HTML and CSS is, is the above possible?
So it might be possible to use Javascript... but what about for users
who have javascript turned off? and because I am loading the jpg
files in one .php, and posting to another .php file and setting the
HTML in the second file... so getting the width and height info in the
first page and passing it to the second .php can be kind of messy.

I developed a dropdown menu using Spry (Adobe Dreamweaver). It is a vertical menu with multiple sub-menus.Some lists are very long and the menu goes below and off the page.I found a great example of what I want my menu to do: Coins Paper Money | eBayOn the side, it says "Browse By:" and there is a vertical menu. If I shrink the page up vertically a little and watch the sub-menus pop out, I notice they get pushed up if the parent is close to the bottom of the screen, which ensures that none of the options go off the page, they get pushed up.

When I run a Javascript program that needs a long run time, the system halts periodically with the message "a script in this program is causing your computer to run slowly ..." and I have to click to restart the program. Is there a way of cancelling this facility, or of adjusting the time it allows before responding? This seems a simple question but I have not been able to find an answer. I have used IE7, IE8 and Chrome.
