Detecting Stop Button
Mar 6, 2006
I'm trying to determine if the user clicks the
stop button during a post send, basically. Specifically, if a user is
uploading a file to my server, and they click stop at some point, I
need to be able to tell the server that stop was clicked, so it doesn't
think that's the whole file. I've noticed that an error message is
written to the Apache log, but that seems like a strange way to keep
track of user-interrupted events. (Note: this is Apache/mod_perl
server-side)
I guess what I'm thinking now is that JavaScript detects the stop
(since it is client-side), then sends a message to the server that an
error occurred, or something. Like I said, the onstop event is not
doing what I'm expecting, and Firefox doesn't like it anyway, not to
metion the other browsers out there. So my question is what's the
"idiom" or "standard way" of detecting this sort of situation. I'm
quite certain I'm not the first one to need it.

I have a jquery-powered "start page" that checks your log in and if successfull it slides in a "menu" of new places to go. The problem is, if you click back from one of the new places, the original "start page" looks as if you never logged in. You have to reload the page. Not very intuitive and this website is for kids. Now I've tried setting form field values with server session variables, javascript variables, etc etc but they all get reset when you click back. I've tried the "onunload hack" which I don't fully understand, and then read a bit about the onhashchange event which is from what I gather only compatible with HTML5 browsers...is there no way to detect if the user is already logged in when they click the back button or am I not doing enough homework?

Anyone know how to hook a browser's Stop button (event?) in JS? I've
looked through the Document and Window DOM events in my O'Reilly JS
book and don't see anything that stands out. About the closest thing
I've come across is onAbort() in the Image object... I just want to
know if Stop was clicked and if so redirect using parent.location.

I'm really new to Javascript, and really know basically nothing about it. What I want to do is press a skip button on a page, then wait for the next page to load completely before pressing the skip button. I want the script to stop after the first five skips, though. I plan on making this into a GreaseMonkey script for my own personal use, if that info is needed, too.

Basically, I have a page that I load with 10 input fields. If users
have JS enabled I want to hide 5 of these fields so as to reduce
clutter. If the user needs these extra fields an "Add" button can be
used to display the hidden fields one by one.
Once the fields a filled in the user submits them for validation and
if there are any error They can "Go back" to make some changes. The
whole process works great in FF & Opera but IE lets me down because if
you use the Browser "Back" button the Javavscript gets executed even
though it should be loaded out of cache.

I have a form with a bunch of selects and a single text input.Form data is sent via $.post whenever the inputs are changed, so a submit button isn't needed. The form does contain one regular button (using the button tag, not the input tag). The button shows a jQuery UI dialog when clicked.
If you press the enter key in the text field, the browser submits the form but it also acts like you clicked the button (the dialog appears). That makes no sense to me. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?I've already tried adding a few things to the form's submit handler, but they don't make a difference.
$('#filters').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
clearTimeout(window.refresh_timer);
[Code]....

how to stop the browsers back button from working after a user has logged out. I tried the windows.history.forward(1); function but it either is not working for me, or I am not putting it int the right place.The logout button is on the menu.php page. The button calls the logout.php file which redirects the user to the index.php page after logout.

I have the following code that will count the elapsed time and print the value in seconds after the user hits the stop button. However we are trying to get it to post the elapsed time in hours. So lets say the elapsed time is 20 mintues, the output would be .3 hours.

example: onkeypress="return eventHandlerFunction(event)"
Why is it that you need the return keyword?
Where does the argument event come from?
I know it works, I just want to know why it works.
I've been looking at some refferences and can't seem to find an answer if someone could give me an explanation or point me to a website, that would be great.

I am trying to do something I thought would be simple in javascript, and I'm at a loss. First code is GOOD code, except that it does not account for the possibility that the button(s) in question do NOT exist. The second and third subsets are two of several attempts to do just that. Code:

I need to write a script that detects if a person has flash installed and if they do then do something, if not do something else.
I can do this no problem with javascript - except for the detecting flash part. I have no idea how to have a js detect flash - or even if its possible.

I have a dynamic web page with three vertical divs.
In the style attribute, I do not specify the div height because I don't know that until they're draw by the browser.
However, I'd like to add a fouth horizontal div acfross the bottom of the page at the bottom of the tallest of the vertical divs.
Is there any way to get the height of a div after it's drawn?

If I detect an empty textbox, I fill it with a value ('Dad'). If I do this twice, the second time around IE 6 fails to notice that I've cleared the textbox again, thus leaving the textbox cleared. Is there a recommended workaround? Opera 7.23 is detecting the second deletion fine.

I am trying to detect whether a user entered text in a textarea
or hit the delete/backspace button (thus, erasing something). Once
that is detected, I would like to set "var bSaveRequired = true;". It
would be great if this function worked cross-browser -- IE 6.0 and
Firefox.
