I have very limited experience with Javascript. Can someone refer me to
info on how to determine the referring URL and the search term used by a
visitor just prior to his landing on my web page?
I have a search field on the website, and when I type a word to search, it search good, but after preforming the search, the search term from search text field disappears and become the default 'Search' word.
How can I make search term stay in search field after preforming a search ? For example, when I type into the search field 'JavaScript' I want that term to stay in search field and after the search is done.
I have been working with different codes to get a search form working with a database.I have a search form based on drop down option values, what I would like to do is select a "company" and append the search term to the company's value.E.G the form would be something like:
<option value="http://url?term=valueisfromsearch&folder=Company Name">Company</option>
There will be a free text area which will allow users to input their search term but need this go feed into the above value of "valueisfromsearch". Upon submit, the user will be presented with their results in their browser.Is this possible mid-URL? I've seen info on Javascript Query String Parameters but don't really understand it that well.
I'm trying to extract one or multiple usernames from a given search term:
Quote:
cartoons -user:donald,mickey,goofy
However, with the regex I came up with I only get two submatches:
Code:
/-user:(w+)(?:,(w+))*/i
submatches: 1: donald 2: goofy
I've been twiddling with this for two hours now, but still don't know. How do I have to change the expression to get all usernames as submatches?
I would like to embed the search results of the Google books search into my website. It should be like Google News elements widget supplied by google itself. I need to have results and not the custom search box.

I've created a site and in the admin area the page will update and tell me if there is a new message from a user, I have this page automatically refreshing every 5 minutes and wondered if it's possible to play a sound file if the term "unread" appears anywhere on the page?

Iīm using Autocomplete - jQuery plugin 1.0.2 .. I know has been upgraded to another plugging but i want to continue using the old one.
I have on issue that I would like to get rid of it but I donīt know how. The problem is that when a term is searched, the autocomplete list suggest the same term multiple times, as many times as there are products with the same name, lets say the same text "cold beer". I just want that autocomplete suggest the term one time.
What is jQuery's long-term strategy for browser support - cut off browsers after a certain number of years or when going below a certain market share? [I'm asking because of the current trend among some webdevs and also
library developers advocating to remove IE6 support and force these users to upgrade their browser. I work with several clients that do not want to "lead the way" in this respect, and need to support IE6 as long as it has a fair usage share, which may be for several more
I'm having an issue with doing a simple js task. I have a list of hyperlinks that contain various paths. For instance:
a href="[URL]
a href="[URL]
What I need is to remove the term "content" from all the hyperlinks in it's contain div. There is got to be a simple way of doing this and I can't seem to find the right direction. I also need to have the targets changed as well, which I was able to complete.
window.onload = function(){
var anchors = document.getElementById('containerDiv').getElementsByTagName('a');
var links = "content";
for (var i=0; i<anchors.length; i++){
anchors[i].setAttribute('target', '_blank');
} }
After retrieving a record from the database and displaying one of its text field in an input-type textbox, I click on a word and it'll store or show the current position of cursor in a variable. I have no success with IE's caretPos.

I create eLearning materials which are given away as a communty service to help people improve their health. A typical eLearning project has a few educational screens (using a Learner Management System-LMS-template) and an interactive exercise (on an external web page-htm or html-usually accessed by button which navigates to the exercise's URL).
The interactive exercise should only be accessed from inside the eLearning lesson using the button, because it requires understanding of the way it works plus important cautions to assure proper use. I need to prevent the use of the URL outside of taking the lesson (for example, someone taking the lesson acquires the exercise's URL from their browser history and then may give this to others who access the exercise directly-without necessary knowledge and cautions).
I tried document.referrer, using JavaScript. Using the referrer URL from inside the lesson and adding the JavaScript to the exercise's htm code worked OK in FF, but not in IE 8. In FF, if the referrer was not the correct single URL from inside the lesson, then it redirected; if the correct URL, the exercise appears.
The JS code follows:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var oksite = "http://www.mysite.com/xyz/courseidxxxxx/yyyy/zzz.html";

In IE 8, I was not able to get it to work. Using an alert, I noticed that the referrer in IE 8 was blank.My web hosting (GoDaddy) is a shared Windows hosting. I would have to upgrade from IIS6 to IIS7 to use PHP. Bigger challenge: I've never used PHP. If possible, I would prefer to use JS. But, I am open to any suggestion that will help.I am also wondering if part of the IE 8 issue is that I am using IE 8 X 64?
I am using a third party shopping cart service written in php. I don't have access to the php code so I decided to use javascript to write a cookie. What I'm trying to do is have the cookie capture the referring URL and then keep it for a day and have it follow where ever the visitor goes in the shopping cart. Then when they check out, the referring URL will populate a form field and be returned as part of the form results. This way I can track where my visitors come from. My code is below and I'm adding it to the file designated as the head section. (The files I have access to must use some form of include but I can't use php in them - just html and javascript. I've tried.)
I have an alert in the code that suggests something to do as well as set the cookie. The alert comes up and the cookie is set but when you go to another page, the alert comes up again and another cookie is set. I just need to have it set once so when they fill out the order form, I'll know where they came from.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
cookie_name = "dataCookie";
var referred;

In the body I am reading it with a form field of
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
document.write("<FORM>")
document.write("Originally Referred by:")

I want to append a string "&sid=xyz" to the current page URL if the referring URL comes from site [URL]. I have the following code -

query = query + "&sid=xyz";

However, the string is not being appended.
I have an object, "A", which contains another object "B", as an attribute.
How do I get a hold of Object "A" from within "B"? i.e. I need to refer to the object that B is stored inside from within B's code. Is there some superclass equivalent of 'this' that I don't know about? ('parent'?!)
Is there any way to have the referring field blank when using the GetURL command?
