Custom Built Slideshow - IE7< Errors
Oct 8, 2009
I decided when redesigning my website that i would try and build nearly everything in it by hand, which included a nice Javascript slideshow.While coding it (coded on Windows 7 and Vista) I ensured i checked it compatability with Firefox, IE, Chrome and Safari. From what i could tell everything was working good (except for some endless looping problems but lets ignore that for now). It even worked on the iPhone browser.
But i sent it to a friend to test and they said nothing was working, after some discussion i descovered they were using IE7 (i was testing in IE8).From what i can see, IE7 has some problems with nested .appendChild and general document handling. I had tried to do my best keeping to using objects in javascript and now just writing HTML, and on one side it worked as it works on most browsers, but not IE7.
The code is nearly all based in a class, but i kept finding problems so there are a few functions found outside the class.The area where most things go wrong is in the function:
this.goToImage = function (image) {
As this is used to generate the floating div above all the content. This function also uses IMG objects which are hidden until the image has loaded (instead showing a nice please wait logo) and then once loaded it appears. I have tried using .innerHTML to get around the append child problems but the images dont seem to work the same as just passing object around.

I've found many examples of creating slideshows using javascript all over the internet and these forums. However, I haven't found any that show how to create a slideshow and give each slide a different time interval between switching to the next one.
I'm changing my website over from a Flash based one to something that can be read on all devices. In doing so I've looked for ways to add a little motion to the site. I'm working with a friend who has been doing most of the site but here and there I like to get my hands dirty and try some things on my own. Unfortunately he doesn't know Javascript.
I wanted to have an animation window in the bottom corner of the page. Look at [url] to see what I came up with. I took a slider plugin for Wordpress and basically created a bunch of slides and entered them in to switch every .5s so that I could change how quickly they changed images by making some of them repeat the same slide 4 times for 2s, 2 times for 1s, etc. Though it's not pretty, it works. On Firefox everything looks great although it'd be nice to have fade in and out on each slide. On an iPad or IE it actually shows the flash between slides even when they're the same image. Quite frankly, it's ugly. Does anybody have any ideas?
I'm trying to get this to work in a Wordpress site on a window with dimensions of 450X230.

I'm trying to inherit from built-in JS objects - Array, specifically.
However, I'm having some difficulties. I can add array elements to
the child object, and when I retrieve them, they're the same as what I
added. The problem is, the 'length' property remains zero no matter
how many elements the child contains: Code:

Have you ever wondered what functions were included in javascript? Have you ever wondered what properties and methods each javascript object supported? You can use this script to display a complete list of all javascript objects supported by your browser. The type of the object will appear in bold. As long as the type is not listed as 'undefined' you can click on that object to view all the supported methods and properties. The back and forward buttons will not work with this script due to security precautions that are built into Firefox. However, I have provided links at the top of each page to help you navigate back and forward between pages.
Usage:
Download the attachment to this post and extract the getObjects.js file. Then add the following code to your webpage.
<script type="text/javascript" src="getObjects.js"></script>
//call the function by using the following link
<a href="javascript:getObjects('window');">Show Objects</a>
//you can substitute the window object with any object of your choice
<a href="javascript:getObjects('window.Components.interfaces');">Show Objects</a>

I have been looking at Prototype.js quite a bit lately as I need to
create a very small library of similar functionality to a subset of
Prototype.js. This is for use with Ruby on Rails.
About Prototype.js Rob G wrote:
1. It modifies the protoype of some built-in objects so that
using say, for..in with an array object produces unexpected
results.
I can see that modifying the prototypes of Object or Array could break
other JavaScript libraries that depend on for..in. Prototype.js also
adds functions to the prototype of Element. How bad is that? (I notice
that in Flanagan's JavaScript 4th edition he mentions that you can
modify the prototypes of built in objects however there is no mention
of the dangers involved.)
I then thought I could use an instance of Element as the prototype of a
MyElement constructor but that option has been squashed in the past as
being not cross browser.
Assuming I shouldn't be playing with the prototypes of built-in
JavaScript objects I can see a couple options that might still be
available. Code:

To build a horizontal floating menu that matches the first row (header row) of my dynamically built table (to include text and cell height/width - needs to match exactly). I have accomplished 90% of this task by extracting the text and building the row in my floating menu header and placing the floating menu where it needs to be. However, I'm having a problem aligning the table (<TD></TD>) cells because of my dynamically built table.
Scenario:
I have a table that is built dynamically. Before it is displayed, I format the table row data (code that adds text/deletes rows etc…), which alters the width of all the table cells (via JavaScript). We'll call this (for lack of a better phrase) "pre_floater_table_format_code."
I then loop through the DOM (<TD></TD>) in the first row of the table to get the text and width from each cell (using offsetWidth and/or clientWidth) and assign the text and cell width(s) to variables that I use to build my floating menu with. We'll call this (for lack of a better phrase) "get_cell_text_width_code."
Problem:
The problem is that once the table is built (and before it is altered by the "pre_floater_table_format_code") it seems as though my "get_cell_text_width_code" reads the un-processed table cell width(s) and sets these variables to the un-processed width values. The "pre_floater_table_format_code" runs much earlier than the "get_cell_text_width_code." So why wouldn't the "get_cell_text_width_code" read the cell width(s) after they've been adjusted by the "pre_floater_table_format_code?" Does this make sense? Anyone have any recommendations? Alternative solutions?

I need to attach a javascript function I wrote to the onChange event of
a <select> tag. However, I'm using a 3rd party tool that creates the
html files - it only lets me add bits of html to it, I can't touch the
elements it produces, so I can't just add an onChange="myfunction"
attribute to that <select> tag. I can't change the onload attribute of
the <body> tag.
How can I run code that attached my function to that event?

So Im trying to create a slideshow with thumbnails the user can scroll through and use to navigate the slideshow. I'm a big fan of cycle so I wanted to use that as my main slideshow component and was planning on using jcarousel for the pager. So far it works great in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari, yet in IE the thumbnails are not loading. I'm guessing it has something to do with how the images in the pager are generated and then jcarousel just isnt proccessing that in IE but I 'm not sure. I feel like I'm very close to getting this slideshow to work, yet I need to figure out why it is failing in IE.

I am using a simple prototype slideshow and a more comprehensive jquery slideshow on my website.When these are used on the same webpage on my website there appears to be a collision: (For example)Code:element.attachEvent is not a function[Break on this error] element.attachEvent("on" + actualEventName, responder); How can I avoid the conflict without reverting to a new slideshow?

I'm using jquery/ajax to create some links with window.open method. Here's the relevant code:
$("#content").empty();
$.ajax({
type: "GET",[code]..........
Basically, when you click a link a function is called with a parameter based on the particular link you run. Then the code runs through an xml file, and if the parent of the nodes I've cyling through has a value equal to the parameter past to the function, that node is used to create a new link with window.open function attached to it.It all works, or seems to, and when I alert what is being built, it looks right to me, yet the links don't work.I've attached a copy of one of the alerts of one of the links as it's built.

Can assign a new function to a built-in object in Firefox:
But IE and Opera don't have a MouseEvent or HTMLElement that can be set up in the same way. Can you do this in IE or Opera, or just Firefox, and maybe Webkit?

Is there any way at all to create a new template object that inherits from the built in Date object so as to be able to add new methods to that child object without adding them to the built in Date object? I've tried everything I can think of and as far as I can tell it keeps referencing the Date function instead of the Date object and so doesn't work.

is there anything wrong with this script as i keep gettin an error message in IE with menu item 1:
//menu methods
function ehandler(event,theobj){
for (var i=1; i<= theobj.numberofmenuitems; i++){
var shutdiv =eval( "menuitem"+i+".thediv");
shutdiv.style.visibility="hidden";
}
theobj.thediv.style.visibility="visible";
this menu is related to a drop down feature later on!

I am in a little over my head here trying to make a template for this PHP script. I am trying to work out all javascript errors.
So far I only have one error on the index page and no other pages. In IE8 at the bottom it shows me the little error icon and when I click it, it shows me:
Line: 2
Char: 18579
Error: Object doesn't support this property or method
Code: 0
URL: http://www.mysocialengine.com/demo/woolton/index.php
I am trying to locate this error in the source code, but cannot figure it out. Can someone maybe take a look at the source and point me in the direction to what IE8 is finding as an error? It's weird that there are javascript errors only on the home page when I use the same header and footer file for the entire web site.
