Defining File Input Value With JS?
Oct 15, 2007<input type="file" />
For the above input, is there any way I can change the value? I found that adding: value="asdf" doesn't change anything with a type="file" input.

View 2 Replies View RelatedCannot Move Input Focus To A Cell After Re-Defining The Cell
Sep 15, 2011I have a javascript program that uses a HTML table as an Excel-like grid. The user can use arrow keys to navigation the grid. When the user selects a cell and then hits <Enter> key, the program turns the cell from read-only to editable (an input box), and select all the text in the input box. When the user hits <Esc>, the program cancels the changes that the user has made and turns the cell back to read-only. So far so good. The problem is that as soon as the user hits <Esc> key and turns the cell back to read-only, I find that I cannot move the input focus back to the cell any more. Actually I cannot move the input focus back to _any_ cell in the table. When this happens, the user cannot use arrow keys to navigate the grid any more (like the grid has lost the input focus). The user needs to use the mouse to click at a cell in the table to get things working again.
The user can get around with this problem by un-selecting the text from the input-box before hitting <Esc>. But this is not something that I expect the user to remember to do. I need a way to fix this problem. I tried the logical thing and programmatically un-select the text before turning the cell back to read-only. But this actually made thing worse - this causes the workaround to stop working.
The only browsers that I have tested this program is IE6 and IE8. I have not tested this in any other browser.
Attached is a simplified version of the program that can show this problem in action. This simplified program first adds an empty table on the web page, and then creates an instance of the CEstGrid class that takes care of the grid. CEstGrid will add two rows of test data into the table with two columns in each row. The user should use a mouse to click at one of the cell, and the cell should be highlighted. The user uses arrow keys to navigate the table. When he reaches the end of the table, he will wrap around to the other side of the table. Let say the user reaches the cell in row-1 column-2, he hits <Enter> to change the cell to editable. He will find the text in that cell to be highlighted. When he hits <Esc> at this moment, he will find that he cannot use the arrow keys to navigate the table any more, and this is the problem. Please rename the test program from .TXT to .HTML to test it.

How To Check The Input File Object File Size On Client Side?
Dec 20, 2004I have a form with three Input File form objects in which the user can add image files. But I am worried about the problems these controls can lead, because to check the file size the server needs to receive the entire file, so serious problems may happen, for example:
1. Malicious user trying to collapse the website sending big files.
2. Users that have not seen the warning “Maximum size: 100 KB� for each image, and try to send three image files consisting in 1,5 MB each one. These users will have a bad experience waiting one hour or more to upload the images, and after that receive an alert saying “Oooops! Your image files are too big.� And also, web server will waste an important amount of resources. The same case with 100 users at the same time can be a nightmare!
I have been searching a way to check the file size on client side without having to force user to install anything, but I think that there isn’ t nothing to do with javascript. But I found an interesting PHP article that explains a way to do it with this server side language. The technique consists in:
“A hidden field (measured in bytes) that precede the file input field, and its value is the maximum filesize accepted. This is an advisory to the browser, PHP also checks it. This form element should always be used as it saves users the trouble of waiting for a big file being transferred only to find that it was too big and the transfer failed. Code:

View 10 Replies View RelatedDefining New Opener
Dec 21, 2002I have just created an 'open window' function for an animated page. It opens the current animation from the current page into a new window, and lets the user change the 'opener' animation while the new animation in the new window continues, sychronised with the opener.
As the opener contains the clock for sychronisation, I can only use the animations from that page (and I have a few pages of small animations). I can let the new animation on the new page continue with its own clock if the opener is closed, but what I would like is if a new animation is started from a new opener, then it tells the existing opened window the new page speed...

trymy rhythm pages
follow steps.....
1; open new window
2; click on drum in new window to turn on
3; start rhythm by clicking on hands in main window
I can change between rhythms, so long as I stay on the main page. The problem is when I change the main page to go to other rhythms I loose the sychronisation.
I can go to another page(from opener) and put a new rhythm in the current new window, but I would prefer to keep the old rhythm and sychronise.

Defining Preload Var For Composite Images
Nov 13, 2006I have built a function that allows users to select a color tile and trim option for a cooking range. Here is a code snippet showing the function:
var color, trim, description;
function displayRange(selectColor, selectTrim, showDes)
{
var rangeName;
if (selectColor != '')
color = selectColor;
if (selectTrim != '')
trim = selectTrim;
rangeName = "images/cluny1400" + color;
if (trim == 'chrome')
rangeName += "_chrome";
rangeName += ".jpg";
var rangeDescription;
if (showDes != '')
description = showDes;
rangeDescription = description;
document.getElementById('rangePict').src = rangeName;
document.getElementById('rangeDes').innerHTML = rangeDescription;
}
Based on the users selections the range image in the selected color and trim is loaded into the interface. My problem is this:
The selected image is made up of three elements, based on the users selection, color and trim and the .jpg extension. This function works well.
However, I cannot work out how to use the image object to preload the images (of which there will be over 34). Normally you would assing a var to hold a new instance of the image object and then assign the src property to the image url. But how do I do that when the var rangeName is composed of three elements. I cannot use a simple var and then call that var in the function.
I have this code snippet, that illustrates my problem:
// create function to preload images
// eliminate older browsers by checking for image object support
function preload() {
if (document.images) {
cluny1400au = new Image(478, 314);
cluny1400au.src = "images/cluny1400au_fw.jpg";
cluny1400au_fw_chrome = new Image(478, 314);
cluny1400au_fw_chrome.src = "images/cluny1400au_fw_chrome.jpg";
}
}
The vars cluny1400au and cluny1400au_fw_chrome would be fine if I could use them in the function to call the images, but I don't think this will work as I believe that you have to use the same var name in the function as in the image object.
Can anyone tell me how the cluny1400au = new Image(478, 314); and cluny1400au_fw_chrome.src = "images/cluny1400au_fw_chrome.jpg"; should be constructed to work with the function.
Here is an html snippet from the page to aid clarity:
<body onLoad="preload()">
<div id="wrapper">
<p><img src="images/cluny1400_bw_chrome.jpg" name="rangePict" width="478" height="314" id="rangePict" /></p>
<p id="rangeDes" name="rangeDes">Description</p>
Thank you in advance for any help.

How To Avoid The Execution Of A Function At The Time Of Defining.
Mar 18, 2007How to avoid the execution of a function at the time of defining.
Here i am giving the details.
I am creating the following div container through DOM.
<div id="content">
<a href="#" onclick="displayDiv('content')" Click</a>
</div>
The Code is:
var category_list = document.getElementById('category_list');
var dom_div = document.createElement('div');
dom_div.id = 'content'
var dom_link = document.createElement('a');
dom_link.href ='#'
dom_link.onclick = displayDiv();
val = document.createTextNode('Click');
dom_link.appendChild(val);
dom_div.appendChild(dom_link);
category_list.appendChild(dom_div);
The displayDiv Funcion
function displayDiv()
{
dv = document.getElementById('content'); //Here is the error.
}
The Problem is when the following script:
dom_link.onclick = displayDiv('content');
is executed it is calling the function displayDiv(name)
Here we have the code
document.getElementById('content');
which throws the error.
The reason is the div container is not yet created.
What I need is the function should be called only on the click event. It should not be called while I define it to the Click Event. (ie it should not be called at the time of defining)
How to achieve this.
