I am currently getting the position of a DOM element by using offsetLeft & offsetTop. This works fine, but I notice that when I use these properties in Internet Explorer the values returned are slightly different from when I use them with Firefox, Safari, or Camino.
I am basically trying to create a DIV over a certain part of a fixed table, so I use offsetLeft & offsetTop to get the coordinates of that table and then position my DIV based on those coordinates. The problem is that with Internet Explorer it seems to be a few pixels off compared to when I do it with Firefox, Safari, or Camino.
Apart from the normal way of writing attributes, like:
Code:
<script src="myscript.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
numeric quotes are also specified in the HTML 4 spec, which look like:
[Code]...
A piece of html code:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="text" name="myInput" onclick="myFunction(this)">
<td>
</tr>
</table>
myFunction(el) {
alert(el.offsetTop)
}
Alert shows the distance from input to the top of the table or table cell.
Is there any other attribute which shows the absolute distance from input to
the top of the page ? Because of some reasons I can't add table's and
input's offsetTops.
I've got a script that determines the true position of an element in
the page by cycling up the .offsetParent elements all the way up to the
<body> element and tallying up the .offsetLeft values returned by each
element. It works fine on the major browsers (IE, Moz, NS) on PC but
Safari on the Mac returns "0" for the offsetLeft right off the body tag
when it should be a greater value than that....
Is there a way to calculate the .offsetLeft or .left of a character in a string relative the element that contains the string? I'm just trying to wrap each character in an element and position the characters independently, so I have to set the .position to absolute, and set the .left and .top on each element as I create it so I can move the elements later on.

Netscape 7?
I am creating a site that will use a Client-Side Include (CSI) to dynamically generate an ad banner to be placed on the right hand side of the page. It loads great in IE5 and above and Netscape 7 and even loads fine in Netscape 4.7. The problem is when the user resizes the window, the ad banner that was generated is then placed at the bottom of the page. I even look at the HTML of that particular page and the CSI is thrown into the bottom portion of the site. I am perplexed as to how it just throws it down AND knows where in the HTML code to insert itself.
If anyone has any ideas on how to stop this snippet of code placing itself anywhere in the site, I would appreciate any help. Again, it LOADs fine but when the user decides to re-size the window, it just moves it down to the bottom of the site.
I've got a trouble with my script, i want to show a <div> on Netscape
and it doesn't work: Here is the script
//navigators identification
var ie4=(document.all && !document.getElementById)? true:false
var ie5=(document.all && document.getElementById)? true:false
var n4=(document.layers)? true:false
var n6=(!document.all && document.getElementById)? true:false
// creation of three div Code:
My Website (Template) uses JavaScript to create a pop-up window in the
gallery.With IE it works fine, but not with my Netscape 7.0. No Pop up apears.
In the script I found the line:
if (browser_type == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && (browser_version >=
4) && (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Windows") != -1)) {
has it something to do with not working?
I created a menu bar for my page using Sothink DHTML Menu 4.1 which created javascript file. I also add a small slide show on the page using javascript and the javascript is embedded in this page's HTML.
Everything works perfectly with IE. However, Netscape (4, 6, 7) can't see the menu bar created in DHTML when the slideshow javascript is present.
If I just have the menu bar or slideshow alone on the page, Netscape can see it, but it seems that Netscape always ignores the DHTML script when both javascripts are present. Not sure what is going.
I have tried to put the slideshow javascript in the .js file that has the DHTML code for menu bar, but it didn't work either.
I just installed the LoveSan security patch from MSFT and turned on
Auto-Update. Now applets do not load. I tried getting Netscape 7.1 but
it directs me to the Sun page to install JRE. I do this but still
neither IE or NS will load applets. Tried downloading some from
various websites with free applets but these do not work either. Any
ideas?
I have a problem with NS 4.7 (I know, it is old, but I have no
choice...) :
So, I have a page with a link to open a new window:
var strHtml = '<html><head><title>title_of_window</title>' +
'<LINK rel=stylesheet href=theme.css>'+
'<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="my_script.js"></SCRIPT>' +
'</HEAD><BODY onLoad="fonc_onLoad();" class=Body topmargin=0
leftmargin=0 MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0>' +
'blablabla' +
'</body></html>'
var win = window.open('', 'window_name', 'parameters');
win.document.write(strHtml);
win.document.close();
win.focus();
My problem concerns the tag "onLoad " of the "BODY" tag: with IE, the
"fonc_onLoad()" starts normally (this function is in "my_script.js"),
but with NS 4.7 (ou 4.51), the <SCRIPT> tag is ignored (you can view the
window's source code), so the "fonc_onLoad()" function cannot not start.
i have a netscape and IE incompatibility problem. when i change the text size in netscape everything looks fine and all frames text size change. but when i change the text size in IE just one frame change!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI guess because IE once again has its own variations this works or Netscape isn't following the dom I don't know which but I was hoping this type of navigation was going to be dom compliant with the newest versions of Netscape
If you have a table with the id "bob" (I like dumb names sometimes) you should be able to navigate down the table via bob.firstChild.childNodes[1].innerHTML. This does not work in netscape but does work in IE. I find this troubling because of how much easier things would have been if it worked in both. I really just wish the browsers would become equal.
The dom specification is here (outdated I believe)
http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/CR-DOM-Lev...roduction.html
Thats the specification and how it supposedly works. I am going to keep playing and figure out if maybe Netscape 'changed' it. for an example try this Code:
i tried everything to open a new window of smaller size in Netscape, just couldn't do it. Is it my own Netscape browser setting or Netscape itself's problem?
here's one of the code im using:

'welcome','width=300,height=200')">
Open a new window</A>
I am looking for a way to embed an IM window into a web page, so that
users can easily send an IM to a support person. I am looking for
something free and easily implemented, that doesn't require any client
download on the user's system. And supports one of the major IM
services like Gtalk, AIM, YIM, ICQ, etc.
Basically I want to provide very very simple answering of questions, so
along the lines of LivePerson without the cost and extra features.
From what I've read, the JavaScript/DOM support is pretty good for
handhelds, but trying a simple page which works on the desktop doesn't
work on pocket IE on the device. I know scripting isn't completely
disabled, because I can use a script block to write a string, but I
haven't been able to call a function to change the string either from a
form button click or by adding another script block that calls the
function. Both of those work on the desktop. In fact, using a script
block to call the function doesn't even work on my device when the
string value is written statically in the HTML (so it doesn't have
anything to do with using the document.write). Code:
I have a textarea and I would like to prevent users from inserting HTML tags. Only plain text is supported. Which client-side js regular expression is best for this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a javascript function which uses the method
document.getElementById.
I'm using it to decide whether a checkbox has been ticked or not. This
decision is encoded in an if statement with the condtion being
if (document.getElementById(checkboxtoupdate).value ==1)
/* The Code */
function set(object)
{
var checkboxtoupdate = object.value;
if (document.getElementById(checkboxtoupdate).value ==1)
document.getElementById(checkboxtoupdate).value = 0;
else
document.getElementById(checkboxtoupdate).value = 1;
}
The "object" accesses a html tag which has an value attribute e.g
value="7400"
However Netscape Navigator 7.1 does not seem to recognise
"document.getElementById(checkboxtoupdate).value"
and reports an error that
document.getElementById(checkboxtoupdate).value has no properties.
But Internet Explorer has no problem with this at all.
Is there another way to do this so as to be recognised by Netscape 7.1?
I noticed that the following line of code works in IE 6 but not in Netscape
7.1:
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="selComb" VALUE="0"
Nothing happens when I click on the radio button. There is not even an error
message.
This is a simplified version of the actual code, which is used to pass among
other things the value of a selected radio button to a JavaScript-function.
Does anybody know how this code can be made to work in Netscape?
