var iW = $(document).width();
alert(iW);
So I didn't know whether to put this in HTML & CSS or here. So I'm just going to put it here and the mods can move it if needed.So I had this script working for auto width of a DIV, then I added DOCTYPE to the top of my document, now it won't change the width ha ha. I have tried with all DOCTYPE's and same thing.The JS I am using is:
window.onload=function(){
document.getElementById("right").style.width= + screen.width - 193;
}
As I said this worked before I added DOCTYPE to the top of the HTML. But when I add any one of the DOCTYPES it stops working.
I understand that if I have an element in my document tree, I can use getComputedStyle() to determine its width based on CSS styles.
I want to dynamically create some elements to populate a given div, but I want the size of these elements to be controllable via CSS. When dynamically populating the div, I need to determine how many elements will fit. Currently, I have to add an element to the div first so its size will be calculated, then I can base my calculations off of that. However, this seems like not a great way to do ti.
Is there some way to ask for the size of an element to be calculated as if it were part of the document tree? That way, I could make my changes all at once.
Determine what the previous page was that the user was viewing, even if the user arrived at my site by through the use of a browser function (history, location bar, refresh, etc.). Is this possible?
I'm not wuite sure how document.history functions - what degree of privacy is given to the user and to what extent can web pages get URLs from the user's history?
I need to create sound with Javascript. Until now all the code I have
been trying doesn't work width Firefox. can some one please show me
how to do it, or give me a link to a good article?
I've created a table in HTML but I need to specify the cell width client side. I need to loop through the cells and set the size based on the rendered size of some other elements.
I'm using the following doctype <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
This is causing me problems in Firefox. The width attribute is being set correctly but the actual table cells aren't being resized. Has anybody seen this before and does anybody have a workaround?
I am trying to generate a pulldown-menu with JavaScript/DOM:
The following Code works fine with Opera an Mozilla but in the IE the
width of the select element is too short:
myCurrentElement =
window.document.getElementsByName('par_role')[0];
for (var i = 0; i < optionArray.length; i++)
{
myNewElement =
window.document.createElement('option');
myNewElement.setAttribute('value',
optionArray[i]["value"]);
if (optionArray[i]["selected"]==1)
{
myNewElement.setAttribute('selected',
'selected');
}
myNewText =
window.document.createTextNode(optionArray[i]["label"]);
myNewElement.appendChild(myNewText);
myCurrentElement.appendChild(myNewElement);
}
<select size="1" name="par_role"">
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- //
var j = optionArray.length;
optionArray[j] = new Object();
optionArray[j]["value"] = "1";
optionArray[j]["label"] = "Admin";
var j = optionArray.length;
optionArray[j] = new Object();
optionArray[j]["value"] = "4";
optionArray[j]["selected"] = "1";
optionArray[j]["label"] = "TEST";
// -->
</script>
If I try to set the width of the select-element with css, long labels
are cut off.
Do I have any other possibility to reset the width of the select
element?
let me try to explain better what I'm trying to do. I'm a real newbie I don't know much javascript but I understand more or less the logic behind it... tell me if this solution should work and if you know how to do it please show me. [URL]... I need to make div#photo's width to match the total width measurement of all the images it contains. If you load the page and you don't touch the size, it will work fine... but that's not realistic. If I resize the page, which will happen often on this kind of page (I'm assuming), the whole thing goes haywire (try it, scroll to the last image and resize the page you'll see what I mean). What can I do? Is my idea the right solution? Am I not explaining this clearly enough? Let me know please, I'm desperate. I've been trying to get CSS to do this for me for 3 hours now. Nothing works.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've recently start using Flexigrid (old JQuery grid plugin), and, as you may know, one of the few issue this really good grid plugin got is the lack of liquid layout option. My personal idea to solve the problem is to set the "width" parameter depending on $(window).width. Here is the problem (and here's why i post this question in "General use" and not in "Plugin").
The starting, and working, code is:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#flex1").flexigrid

This work fine for me, but I supose it could be done way much elegant... maybe somethin without "IF" that could emulate the "%", like var percentage = $(#div.id).width()*0.XX with the 0.XX picked from an array of percentage, one for each column. Probably I should set up a function... ahhhh, as you may easily see I'm a total beginner with JQuery (and JS in general...)
I am trying to setup a javascript function that sets a div's width based on the combined width of the li's with the name "navItem". The problems I have been running into when trying to define the width of the li's is that they do not have a width defined in css. Can anyone help me out with this? The javascript function setWindow is suppose to show the div loginWindow and set the width of it.
Code:
<div id="topNav">
<ul>
<li><img src="<?php print $site->folder['images']['header']; ?>topmenu_left.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></li>
<li name="navItem"><a href="<? print $site->url['about']; ?>">About Us</a></li>
<li name="navItem"><a onmouseover="setWindow('loginWindow');" href="<? print $site->url['billing']; ?>">Client Services</a></li>

I have a strange problem... I have a form with a text area that contains an XML document. This document can be modified by the user.
Once the document has been modified, the user pressed the "Submit" button to submit the modification (onclick=modify())... and go to another jsp page.... in my javascript, I have the following code:
function modify()
{
myRand=parseInt(Math.random()*99999999); // cache buster
var docXML=document.forms[0].xml.value;
var plist="myRand="+myRand+"&docXML="+escape(docXML);
url="modify_xml.jsp?"+plist;
document.forms[0].action=url;
document.forms[0].submit();
}
With Firefox, the problem does not occur.... but with Explorer, the form is not even submitted!!!!! Is there a workaround for this? The XML document is not even very big.
I'm back after giving up two years ago to write a page of html code with javascript in it.
I want to display a table with five images (tumbnails) per row with the name of the image (my code number for the image) under it. I want 4 rows of images for a total of 20 images (tumbnails).
I want when someone clicks on one of the tumbnail images a new window opens with the fullsize image displayed.
I have written an html page that does this but I have over 50 such pages that I need to create for my website. Here is the code that does this for each table image cell. Code:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to add an input hidden field to an existing form (post).
I have tried a couple things like adding the '<INPUT type=hidden
name=idSelectedURL value=http://server/documents>' to the innerHTML of
the form but it fails. ie
var sField = "<INPUT type=hidden name=idSelectedURL
value=http://server/documents>";
frm.innerHTML = frm.innerHTML + sField;
also, trying to add an element to the form such as:
var frm = document.getElementById("idForm");
var oField = frm.createElement ('input');
oField.type ="hidden";
oField.name = "idSelectedURL";
oField.value ="http://server/documents";
none of these work and give me a javascript error.
I don't think the createElement method can be used from the form
object, only from the document object. still could not get it working.
Is the next jQuery code the best way to decrease an elements width?[code]I tried using the next code:[code]but that's not working, also not with '-20'.Maybe it's an idea to add this functionality? It's is already used in the .animate() function for changing the position of an element.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need a code that when a button or image is clicked then a div's width and height are changed.
Ive managed to get a few codes that does this, but the real problem is that, the contents of the div is an embedded flash file and i thought that by setting the flash width and height to 100% then the flash would fit to the new size of the div, but it just didnt work.
I need a code that when a button is clicked then the div's and the flash's width and height are changed.
please have a look at the temp website latinunit net / temp / , you will understand where im coming from.
on the right hand side i have a flash chat in a div , div is controled by a script that allows it to follow the scrollers up and down.
My goal is to add a little button in the same div that says expand or maximise so when clicked the the div expands aswell as the flash file.
I am getting syntax errors in my JavaScript code, code snippet as follows

I have an IFrame whose document is created completely by Javascript code at
runtime. The document in the IFrame accesses Javascript functions in the
top level document. This works fine most of the time. But every now and
then, when I hit the back button, the browser suddenly thinks the Javascript
created document in the IFrame is not from the same domain as the topmost
document, and therefore I start getting "permission denied" errors when I
try to access the top level document's Javascript functions.
If I look at the IFrame document's properties (Mozilla->This Frame->View
Info), it shows the expected URL with a domain name that matches the top
level document.

I want to set the width of a div to be the same width of the image inside the div.The following code works great. But...The images are different widths, so both wrappers are set to the width of the first image. Without having to add an ID to each wrapper or image, can the wrapper width be set to the image width using the name of the image as the unique identifier?
jQuery:
$(document).ready(function(){
var newWidth = $('div.wrapper img').attr('width');
$('div.wrapper').width(newWidth);
});
HTML:
<div class="wrapper">
<p><img src="image1.jpg" width="200" /><br />
Caption</p>
</div>
