Creating A Link With A Javascript-read XML Page
Oct 24, 2005
I have an XML document which lists some information about movies(Title, actor, etc.) I am using Javascript to pull that data and display it as html. Is it possible to create a link for each one of those titles that are pulled from the XML in my JS? Here is my code:
for (var i=0; movies.length > i; i++)
{
var Title = movies[i].getElementsByTagName("title");
var Actor = movies[i].getElementsByTagName("actor");
var Price = movies[i].getElementsByTagName("price");
results += i+1 + '. ' + ' "<span class="title"><a href="http://www.imdb.com">' + Title[0].firstChild.nodeValue + '</a></span>"' +
' starring <span class="actor">' + Actor[0].firstChild.nodeValue + '</span>' + ' and costs approximately $'+ Price[0].firstChild.nodeValue + "<br/>
";
}
document.getElementById("displayresults").innerHTML = results;

If you give an element an inline property, as in
<div id='testDiv' style='display:block'>blah</div>
then an alert(document.getElementById('testDiv').style.display) will of course give you "block." But, if you give the element a property through an external CSS file, the same alert comes up empty!
This is causing me big problems as I've discovered and is ridiculous. Can javascript read properties from external CSS sheets?

Anyone know how I can change the color of a text link on a page that doesn't load a new page, but rather stays on the same page?The nav links already use an onClick to present content below it that changes depending on what link in the nav I select. In other words, there's already two things going on -- links take you to content on the same page using a JS onClick.What I want to add to that is when you click on the link, it changes style, like turns bold or changes color. So then the user knows that not only have they selected new content, but the link they selected stands out as well.

I would like to include drop-down navigation links on my home page that connect to other pages on my website. No problem there. The problem is that some of the other pages contain a series of div elements that are hidden (display:none) until activated by javascript enabled links on the page. Clicking those links changes some of the page's content (within a div) .. almost like a "new" page. [URL]. Here's my question: Is there any way to create menu links on my home page that will open the "concert.html" page AND display the appropriate div content at the same time?
For example: on the home page, a menu link under "Concert" that opens that page and automatically displays the "Rock Symphonies" section?
Here are the related HTML div elements on the "concert.html" page:
<div id="page1">concept content</div>
<div id="page2" style="display:none;">rock symphonies content</div>
<div id="page3" style="display:none;">general program content</div>
<div id="page4" style="display:none;">ticket price content</div>
<div id="page5" style="display:none;">concert committee content</div>
Here are the corresponding js-enabled links:
<li><a href="javascript:page(1,5);" id="tag1">Concept</a></li>
<li><a href="javascript:page(2,5);" id="tag2">Rock Symphonies</a></li>
<li><a href="javascript:page(3,5);" id="tag3">General Program</a></li>
<li><a href="javascript:page(4,5);" id="tag4">Ticket Prices</a></li>
<li><a href="javascript:page(5,5);" id="tag5">Concert Committee</a></li>
And here's the javascript I'm using: (scripts/generator.js)
function page(id,all) {for (i=1; i<=all; i++) { if (i==id) {
document.getElementById('page'+i).style.display="inline";
document.getElementById('tag'+i).style.fontWeight="normal";
document.getElementById('tag'+i).style.color="#FFF"; }
else {
document.getElementById('page'+i).style.display="none";
document.getElementById('tag'+i).style.fontWeight="normal";
document.getElementById('tag'+i).style.color="#a4bfed";} }}

Is there a way I can read my address bar and write the link to a file. I think it is great that websites post the code I need but the cut and paste thing gets to be a drag. If I am using my browser I am not editing my site. I need a way to save from the http and com. are maybe the part between the two dots.

I thought this would be simple for me to work out, but I can't seem to find reference to it. I'm flexable on how I call a URL, thus, if I have any one of the following:
http://www.mydomain.com/index.html?err=dup
http://www.mydomain.com/index.html?err=1
http://www.mydomain.com/index.html?dup
How can I read the value to the right of the question mark?
I want to create a javascript function which reads the url, and, if the url was passed an arguement, it acts on it (namely, displays an error message)....

I need to make a javascript read a web directory from a remote site (ie
"http://remotesite.com/images") (The remote die does not have an index.htm and does have directory listing enabled)
I have seen many samples but they all use frames or iframes, all I want
is a method that you can say:
<body onload="readremotedir('http://remotesite.com/images');">
and the method would get the directory listings and populate an array
var Pic = new Array()

I would like to some javascript connect to a URL on the same webserver
and read a CGI. The output from this CGI is not plain HTML but rather
data which needs to be displayed in a moving graph. Coming from a Perl
background I'd say I'm looking to do something like:
while (my $data = read_url(http://whatever) {
print some pretty moving data across the screen;
}
Is something like this possible to do in javascript?

I am using a standard javascript that I downloaded from
javascriptsource.com to read from and fill in a form using cookies.
The page tests well in every browser except Apple's Safari (from
10.3.2)
Unfortunately, my clients daughter uses Safari so I have to get it to
work with it, even though most of his clients use IE.
What do I need to do to change the code so this will all work in

I'm trying to create a webpage where users can click on a dynamically generated set of questions:
<?php do { ?>
<p><?php echo $row_rsQuestions['question_text']; ?><?php echo $row_rsQuestions['question_type']; ?></p>
<?php } while ($row_rsQuestions = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsQuestions)); ?>
and by clicking on a particular question, there will be an update for their particular listing of personal questions in a MySql database. I know how to create the database update part, but I think that I would need to javascript to:
1) tell my page that it's time to update (i.e. add a particular question as soon as they click it)
2) pass along the correct variable to the database update portion of the page.

I'm using a form data reference, something like P-1234 for example to create a text file and a link to the file. This is during the construction of a new table or table row with javascript. I have an array of one or more references submitted via form using $_POST. On my action page I am creating a txt file P-1234. If I am creating a table ot table row using createElement(), one of the cells will have a link to the file. If the file is created as follows:
$File = $_POST['ref'][$i] . "txt";
After creating the cell
var Cell = document.createElement('td');
[code]....
I assume the link is inserted using innerHTML? If so, do I just append the filename to the end of the file path like this?
Cell.innerHTML = "http://localhost/Project/+File";

I'd like to read and modify a cell (e.g. 'Text 1') in the following HTML table with a javascript:
==============================================
<html>
<body>
<table id = "MyTable">
<tr id = "Row1">
<td width = "40%">
Text 1
</td>
<td width = "60%">
Text 2
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
==============================================
With
var table = document.getElementById("MyTable");
I can access the table and with
... table.rows[var_tabelle.rows.length - 1].firstChild
I can somehow access the row. But I can't read and also not change the
content.

Any way to select a portion of text and convert it to a clickable link? I have seen examples, where the selected text is wrapped in <a> tags, however, I have yet to see an example of having the link actually be clickable. The other issue appears to be with the document.selection property that Firefox seems to not support. So a cross-browser solution would be ideal. I intend to use this with a custom toolbar/button in FCKEditor. The toolbar is in place, we just need to resolve the selected text - clickable link issue.

Ive been banging my head on the wall for hours with this one, hopefully
someone will know what Im doing wrong here :
The Goal:
I have an xml file that is generated on the fly via JSP which I want to
load into a Microsoft.XMLHTTP ActiveX object and manipulate via
javascript on the client side. Data is retreived from the server at the
request of the javascript without having to reload the page.
The Problem:
For the JSP to dynamically output xml, the file must have the extension
JSP, which is set to the mime type of dynamo-internal/html on the
server side (as we are using ATG Dynamo). But the javascript on the
client side will not retrieve anything unless the file extension is
..xml (or the mime type is recognized as text/xml). So the only way I
can get it to work is to change the extension to .xml, which then of
course amkes it so that the server will not process any of the JSP
code.
Ive tried to override the mime type within the javascript, using the
setRequestHeader method after opening the file, but no luck. A call to
alert the value of req.responseXML.xml after the send() turns up empty.
Ive only gotten it to work if I use a static xml file in palce of the
jsp. Sample of the javascript code is below:
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
// branch for native XMLHttpRequest object - THIS WORKS
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.overrideMimeType("text/xml");
req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
req.open("GET", "models.jsp?cId=300006&mId=TAC24", true);
req.send(null);
alert(req.responseXML.xml); //this gives me the resulting xml file
} else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
// branch for IE/Windows ActiveX version - NOT WORKING
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
if (req) {
req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
req.open("GET", "models.jsp?cId=300006&mId=TAC24", true);
req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","text/xml");
req.send();
alert(req.responseXML.xml); //this gives me nothing
}
}
In looking at the following example the Microsoft gives (bottom of
page):
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...B;EN-US;Q290591
I just dont see what could be going wrong here.
I should note that I successfully got the script to work using the
XMLHttpRequest object and the overrideMimeType() method. This works
with FireFox and I think some Mozilla clients, but not with the all
important IE5, which instead uses the XMLHTTP ActiveX control.=

I've searched high and low for some decent code that will allow a visitor to a website to bookmark the site through a hyperlink. The bookmarking is done through a javascript function that looks like this:
Code:
function OnBookmarkButtonClick (e)
{
if (window.sidebar)

I need to add some detection for Opera, Safari, and Chrome. note that it must be feature detection, not browser detection. But as I said, I've searched high and low for this, and couldn't find anything.

Recently in my IT class, we made a HTML page which would open a popup box, where the user could enter a key word. When the user pressed enter, the page would navigate to a specific page. The code we used was:
<script language = "JavaScript">
where = window.prompt ("Please tell me where you would like to go.");
switch (where){[code].....
implement this code on my workplaces server, and have the keywords link to other html documents within the server. However when I tested this, for some reason the links are not working.
