I can't seem to find a function or method that will return the "name" of the currently selected node or element in an xml dom. The text and attribute value is accessible but I can't access the name of the element itself. tagName() doesn't work tagId doesn't .
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run some code when a H2 element is clicked on an unordered list below it. The problem is, the code runs whether the h2 has a ul below it or not.
h[x].onclick = function(){
var ul = this.nextSibling;
while (ul.nodeType != 1){
ul = ul.nextSibling;
}
So, if I have something like this:
<h2>Subtitle</h2>
<h2>Subtitle 2</h2>
<ul><li>List</li></ul>
Clicking "Subtitle" runs the function on "Subtitle 2". I don't want the function to run unless the next element is an ul. How can I verify that the next element is an unordered list and if not, don't run anything?
I'm trying to read a select(dropdown) box from an HTML form along with all its options. My core requirement is to be able to read a select element with all its option and store it in some variable/node using one JS function. Use another JS function to pick the node and convert the values from node back to the options of select box.
We can probably make use of jQuery as well, provided it is supported by IE6.
I am on a project that wont let me use jQuery, but i have grown so use to the jQuery structure i want to have similar syntax [code] i am aware that this is all it does and would die for any other use $('.bla'). thats ok, one step @ a time, all i need is ID selector right now (project has VERY limited scope)but now i want to recreate jQuery's the append():[code]if i had an append function in a normal function it would look like this:[code]the problem is in the jQuery "like" version i don't know how to access the node element?

Is it possible to check for the existence of an element? I have a dynamic
page which may or may not have a <div> holding a bunch of thumbnails, and I

Generates an error.... I was hoping it would just return false or
something... Is there a way of doing this?

However, there seems to be a bug or my methodology is incomplete as the browser returns the Textvalue of the paragraph without any styling.

im having a little difficulty checking if an XML node has a value, here the code:
var Divs=new Array("artist","bio","img","date","tickets","venue","street","city","country","headliner");

This always throws up the error: document.getElementById(Divs[nodes]) is null ive tried putting the xmlDoc in a variable then checking if its null but no luck, also tried the same method against "undefined" but no luck either.
I'm having some problems understanding the append() function. What I'd like to do is select an element using it's ID and add a row to the table with a HTML form element. The table is dynamically generated using a Django template ( form.as_table() ) so I'm not able to alter the original HTML markup too much.
If I had a table like this...
I have created a form with malsup's Form Plugin wherein it submits on change of the inputs. I have set up my jQuery script to index drop down menus and visible inputs, and uses that index to determine whether keydown of tab should move focus to the next element or the first element, and likewise with shift+tab keydown. However, instead of moving focus to the first element from the last element on tab keydown like I would like it to, it moves focus to the second element. How can I change it to cycle focus to the actual first and last elements? Here is a live link to my form: [URL]. Here is my script:
$(document).ready(function() {
var options = {
target: '#c_main',
success: setFocus

i have got about 50 definition lists on one html-page witch all look linke this:
<dl>
<dt class="title">aaa</dt>
<dd class="subtitle">bbb</dd>
<dd class="city">ccc</dd>
<dd class="email">ddd</dd>
<dd class="website">eee</dd>
<dd class="description">fff</dd>
</dl>
if the dt-element in one of the definition lists has a specific css-property (e.g. length > 100px) then the dd-element with the css-class "subtitle" in the same definition list should be removed.
I'm doing a very simple expand/collapse function using 'slideToggle'. The button that triggers this event simply says 'Expand/collapse'. I want this text to change depending on whether an element is visible or hidden.

If I generate a new element via AJAX, jQuery don't listen to events at this element. I read that live() how to use this function together with post().
That's what I have:
$(document).ready(function() {
$.post('products.php', $('#products_form').serialize(), function(returnData) {
$('.target').html(returnData);
});

Is this possible with JQuery? I have the following code which I think Should do this, but it's not working :/These are two different functions which I've been testing, and the html element is supposed to create a dropdown list via some PHP which will have the option "Other" within it. Unfortunately, I have no idea exactly how to turn "Other" into a text box when the user clicks, and I've been spending a lot of time on this already.

I want to make it so you can click on a pinpoint that's plotted on the
