Changing Save As Filename - Page Which Allows Access To Music On A Server ?
Dec 20, 2010
I am currently developing a page which allows access to music on a server. This music is being streamed, but users are also able to download this music (assuming they have the license to do so). All of the music uploaded is of the .mp3 format, however they have no filetype extensions, and were not named using any particular naming convention. Because of this, I was hoping to change the filename (when a downloaded is initiated) to variables I have stored based on the current song.
I am currently simply opening a new page, in Chrome is looks like this: chrome.tabs.create({ "url": song.url })
Hit presents the user with a prompt to save the file, however, its default name is a random alphanumeric string with no extension, as per their file name on my server. Is there an easy way to do this without renaming all the music server side? I do have the variables song.title and song.artist setup!
Edit: Since this page is only for Chrome users, I listed the code I am using. I understand window.open and was originally using this. It functions the same, and if I need to revert back to using is instead, I shall.
I have a webform that creates a word document as it's ouput (yes I know it only works on IE). function createWordDoc(){ Doctxt = "some text here" var w=new ActiveXObject("Word.Application"); w.Visible=true; w.Documents.Add(); w.Selection.Font.Name="Times New Roman"; w.Selection.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = 1; w.Selection.TypeText(Doctxt); w.Documents.Save(); }
My issue is with saving the file. At the moment, in the above code, it opens the save dialogue box, and populates the filename field with the first line of text in the document. What I want to be able to do is populate the filename field with a variable filename created by the function. I've tried the snippet below, which works with the dynamic filename, but it autosaves the file to "My Documents" folder without prompting. I need to be able to allow the location to be changed. var FileName = "Myfile.doc" w.ActiveDocument.SaveAs(FileName);
I have been building my own website using iWeb, however, iWeb does not supportcontinuous music that will keep playing as you browse through the website. Initially, I managed to solve this problem by adding a html snippet in iWeb. Before each page reloaded, there was a white flash, but for the most part, I was happy with the results and no matter which page I turned to on my website, the music played continuously without interruption. Then I decided to change my navigation bar on my website. iWeb's navigation bars are very basic and I wanted to change the static navigation bar to one that fades-in and fades-out when the cursor passes over each button. I managed to do this. This too required a html snippet on each one of my pages and extensive changes in my ftp sever files. The results are beautiful. Now I am having problems again.Now that I have my fading navigation bar up and running, I can not get continuous music to play using the same html snippet as I did before. Apparently, the flash-based navigation bar is inteferring with the continuous music html snippet. I don't know if there is an easy work around. My question to everyone here, is there a way I can bypass the iWeb route and add continuous music in my Cyberduck ftp server? [URL]
I have very limited knowledge of web design and so even less knowledge of jquery.I have however redesigned my website using some bits if jquery (datepicker in a form, buttons and a tab menu)I've built this using wysiwyg web builder and im uploading it to just host.When I upload none of the jquery shows and all my pages are on top of one another URL..im guessing I have to save jquery in a new folder that has to be created but i'm unsure what.I thought home/username/public_html/twsremovals.co.uk/themes/theme_name/js would work but it hasnt (i have replaced username with my username and the theme name with what the theme is called.

I need to put previous/next navigation button images on a lot of slides.If i am on slide 3 I'd like javascript to identify previous button as slide2.html and next button as slide4.html and so on
I have installed a flash mp3 player that streams music while browsing my website. Unfortunately there is a problem that any time you click a link to another page, everything reloads and the music restarts. Looking for advice on how to implement the music stream so it plays continuously and not affected by changing pages of the site. I would like to avoid any sort of frames implementation. Only other thing I can think of is some sort of AJAX implementation
I have a website with no ssi, php, cgi...nothing. Plain old flat pages are all it serves. I need to upload a list to it - a big, plain text list in html. A 2Mb list!
With gzip compress, it comes down to 91Kb, much more modem-friendly!
After about 30 minutes of googling, I haven't yet found a way of serving this page up like this. I can't send headers as no php or .htaccess is allowed.
And please don't suggest I move to a "proper" web host! It's for a friend with a one-off need for a small website for about 2 months, and the freebie 10Mb is fine.

Is is possible to alter the name or extension of a file when someone chooses to save / save as in javascript? If so, how can I do it? Any point in the right direction would help ... I just don't know where to start looking for an answer, other than here. Google was fruitless.
I have seen this done with php at scanlover.com, where all images are saved as "untitled.jpg" regardless of their actual name or extension on the server.
Im writing client-side javascript and I want to do a server side include. There are many server files but only one will be included. These files contain peoples names and phone numbers. This info is packaged as a line of javascript but I can change that packaging if necessary.
The file name to include is being passed as a url parameter: [url]
I know how to parse the url string and stuff the ID number into a javascript variable.
I set <ICODE> foo = "/people/12345.html" </ICODE> and tried <ICODE><!--#include virtual="${foo}" --> </ICODE> but this did not work.
Is there a way to do this with javascript given that the name of the file I wish to include is contained in a variable? If not, what is the usual way of getting the data in the server file into my client-side javascript?
I select an option availabe in select and on selecting yes on the confirm msg save and submit it. Now i select another option and if i select no on the confirm msg I need to get the previously selected option and use it.
The code is as follows:
<html> <head> <script language="JavaScript" > function joesFunc() { var x=confirm('Do You want to select this value ?'); if (!x) { alert('You want to select the previous value which is : '+document.forms[0].preVal.value) document.forms[0].myType.value=document.forms[0].preVal.value; return; } else { alert('You have SELECTED: '+document.forms[0].myType.value) document.forms[0].preVal.value=document.forms[0].myType.value; } document.forms[0].submit(); } </script> </head> <body> <form name="testjsp"> <select name='myType'> <br> <option value=Ɔ'>Please Select <option value=Ƈ'>One <option value=ƈ'>Two <option value=Ɖ'>Three <option value=Ɗ'>Four <option value=Ƌ'>Five </select> <input type="button" value="Retrieve" onClick="javascript:joesFunc()"> <input type="hidden" name="preVal"> </form > </body> </html>
I need to use the save page function in the website, but the document.execCommand("SaveAs") command only can run in IE, can't run in Netscape and FireFox. How should i do?
In my site I show low quality pictures. When someone right clicks an image and selects 'Save Picture As...', I wish to let him save the high quality picture.
I've got a form that's nested in a larger application. I need to program it so that the user is warned to save upon clicking on any exit point in the application.
So, if they click on any of the nav buttons in the header/nav bar, they need to get an alert:
"Would you like to continue without saving your changes?" _Yes_ _No_
It would be a big pain to retrofit the application's nav buttons/framework for just these forms, so I'm looking for a solution that doesn't require editing the source code of the application's existing navigation.
I'd like to save a single page automatically. The page uses javascript, and therefore I can't seem to use links, elinks, lynx, w3m or curl (I've tried them with spidermonkey but it keeps telling me to enable javascript) to do so properly, it always saves everything except the javascript rendered output.
So I think the only what to do it would be in a web browser. So, say for intstance, I want to save the the main page, [url] and have it automatically save to my C:google.htm. How would I do that? Is this possible?
