Cross-Browser Event Handling - In IE8 It Doesn't Work?
Jul 18, 2010
I'm trying to augment Object.prototype with an addEvent method that will add event listeners, and will work regardless of whether the browser is IE or not.Here's what I have: So far it seems to work in non-IE browsers, but in IE8 it doesn't work. Where am I going wrong?
I have a document with a parent element that has mousedown,mouseup and mousemove events registered to it. The parent element has some child elements as well. I observe inconsistent behaviours between browser types when I hold the mouse button down, move the pointer and release the button.
ie7 - mouseup fires when over a child or parent
op9 - mouseup fires only when over the parent
ff2 - mouseup fires only over a child or parent but only if the pointer has moved since the mousedown occured
The topic of event handler management has been covered in many places in the past. One location is in the contest by PPK (http:[url]....). The winning submission by John Resig (http:[url]...._and_the_winner_1.html) has a few problems, and the commentary on the site seems to gravitate to the implementation by Dean Edwards (http://dean.edwards.name/weblog/2005/10/add-event2/) after the analysis of the Resig code.I was also able to find a few more implementations on stackoverflow from: Bill Ayakatubby (http:[url]....) and Marco Demaio [url].....
Outside of the JavaScript frameworks, what is generally done for supporting event functionality? There are numerous options each with their own benefits and drawbacks. I'm uncertain of which one to use myself. Is there an undeclared de facto?
When you click on the "details" link, a modal window pops up with the job info.This works in IE, but nowhere else. My js skills are shaky, at best, but I did figure out that event.srcElement is IE only and that there are better, modern methods of achieving this.Problem is, I don't know how to implement them in this instance.How can I rewrite this so the modal window functions correctly in IE, FF, etc?Here's the code:
Code:
function displayDetails(num,ctrl) { for(var i=0; i<details.length; i++)[code]...
I'm trying to write a cross-browser (IE and firefox) event handler for the mousewheel. Basically my web app is an image viewer, so if you scroll "down" with the wheel the next image should be displayed and if you scroll "up" the previous image should be displayed.
So far I have:
function handleMouseWheel(e) { if (!e) e = window.event;
I am trying to develop a Qwerty Shifter http:[url]....by handling keyboard events.I want to display a textbox and as user type any text it changes at once means as user types "a" it display "s" "b" changes "n"
I'm trying to write some javascript code that should only run in firefox. I thought that document.all was undefined in firefox, but it actually is defined. When I write it out I get document.all = [object HTML document.all class]
I use a subnav and subsubnav with the following code. It works in all popular browsers as desired, except in Chrome (latest version), which don't open subnav-2I've tried several methods without success. The classes subnav-1 and subnav-2 are li elements. Maybe someone can tell me where is the problem.
Is there any way to resize an iframe dynamically to the height of its content that works cross browser and works when the iframe content is on another domain than the main page (I have access to both pages, so code can be put in either) Also, it must resize when links in the iframe are clicked (ie when a new page within the iframe is loaded)
If visual basic and firebug doesn't show me any error and if code doesn't work on any browser...so what should i do. I did a little boring - to read my code again to find a simple syntax errors like - writte() for exemple.
But even that does not give me anything! Is there any good recomendations how to change it all?
Look at this code:
Browser gives me out only - Please enter a valid name
I'm doing a tree-like structure using divs inside divs. I use event.stopPropagation() to stop parent events from firing when clicking inside them. This works just fine in Chrome and Firefox, but in IE8, I get an error message ("Object doesn't support this property or method") and the events propagate to the parents.
[Code]...
This works fine in Firefox and Chrome, but IE8 throws an error on event.stopPropagation(); saying "Object doesn't support this property or method". I have tried passing event as an argument to the function that handles the stopping of propagation but that doesn't help either. What's wrong and how do I fix it?
I'm trying to add a simple growing effect to a div using jquery, i'd like to create a button that changes his dimentions on the over event of the mouse and turn back to the original dimensions once the mouse is out.
I've used the hover event and I've created 2 functions:one for the growing effect used on the over status and the other one for the reduce effect used on the out status.In IE 7 I've got this error: the growing function is working but the reduction function is not working at all the error code on javascript it's only "Invalid property value".
Here some code:
function makeBig(){ $(this).animate({ "opacity":"0.80", "width":"200px",
I'm messing around with the two new event handling methods .on() and .off() but I seem to be doing something wrong... My code;
<div id="links-wrapper"> <a href="#">Click me #1</a> <a href="#">Click me #2</a> <a href="#">Click me #3</a> </div> [Code]...
What happens is that a click event is being attached to the anhors after the html loaded. The handler alerts which link you clicked and should then remove all events from the anchors from the given selector (resulting in that you should not be able to fire the event again) but this doesn't happen.
I found the bug ticket with similar problem: [URL] but it was closed as invalid. The problem still exists for me. I have the following live event: $("a:not([onclick])").live('click', ajaxLinkHandler); It's not applying to content loaded via $.ajax(...).responseXML which I used to append in the following way:
// withing ajaxLinkHandler var content = $(loadedDocument).find("[component='"+ id +"']"); $(this.contentContainer).empty().append(content);
I'm working on a image slider, which will slide left to right and vice versa on mouser over event. the images are dynamically loaded from the database using ASP script. I use mootools.svn.js for the sliding implementation. and Ajax to pass the id of the image to another page as a query string. this is implemented in a onclick="getValue('<%= id %>')" event. This works fine in IE8, but when I test in Firefox 3.6 and Chrome the onclick event doesn't work. when I comment the mootools.svn.js, the onclick event get fired.
i have a basic 2 column page, on the left is the navigation, on the right the content.i'm loading in the content with the load() method - some php generated html code which looks like this e.g.
so if i click on the toggle div.. nothing happens so i tried to put a <p id="toggle"> in the navigation bar which is static (not being load()-ed in via jQuery) and it worked so it seems to me, that jQuery can't get the click event out of the load()-ed page
I've set the animation to large numbers (1000) to make it very obvious.
The helper will show before the other fieldSets have been hidden. The show animation begins about half way through the hide animation. Since both elements are occupying the same space, this makes the container jump around in size as it breifly expands to fit one under the other.
