I am in the process of writing a script that will dynamically generate a table using javascript and XML. I can get all of my data to feed in with no problem but am getting hung up on a few small syntax issues. Basically I need to assign a unique id equal to [i] (instead of id="answerDiv", in bold below) so that when calling showHide() it will show/hide one specific div.
Current Table Script
Code:
//table 2
document.write("<table id='tbl2' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' border='0' style='display: none; width:236px;'>");
var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("feature");
for (i=0;i<x.length;i++) {
document.write("<tr><td class='eventDate'>");document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("question")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
document.write("</td><td class='eventText'>");
document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("content")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
document.write('<a href="#" class="redLink triviaAnswer" onclick="showHide();">click for answer</a><br><br>
<div id="answerDiv" style="display:none">');
document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("answer")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
document.write('</div></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"><div class="tabs_hr"></div></td></tr>');
} document.write("</table>");
Show/Hide Function
I want to display a 'preview' image for a file upload field. I assigned a function to the onChanged event for the file input that gets the value of the input text field, does some minor regex to fix the string, and then creates a new 'img' tag element and assigns the fixed string as the img's src: Code:
I am doing a project where I would like to be able to generate a series of variable names dynamically in the following example
var paper1 = new Raphael('img1', 500, 500); c1 = paper1.rect(0, 0, 50, 20, 5); var paper2 = new Raphael('img2', 500, 500); c2 = paper2.rect(0, 0, 50, 20, 5); would like to use a loop to increment names for (i=0;i<=5;i++)
I'm almost finished with this app for XUL / HTML Table Generation, and i have a really strange problem...The HTML strings in the Arrays can be changed, and the HTML file saved, and the HTML page reloaded, and the changes will render.However, i have one array, no matter what i change the HTML strings to, it refuses to render the changes made to the HTML strings.It's quite confusing...the array in question is
At this point I have been able to add the row. But what I want to do and am having trouble with is alternating the row colour to the dynamically added row element.
Sample of code I am using:
Code: var tbody = document.getElementById('tableItems');
var td1 = document.createElement("td"); td1.appendChild(document.createTextNode(qty)); td1.setAttribute("class","qty"); row.appendChild(td1); tbody.appendChild(row); One thing that puzzles me, is that even after adding a row the table my table.rows.length still = 0.
Does anyone know how I can determine the appropriate amount of rows so that I can apply the appropriate class?
Or is there just something blatantly wrong in my approach?
how I would dynamically add another table once text fields in the existing table is clicked on. So pretty much what I have is a table with 5 textboxes lined up horizontally in the first row along with couple of buttons in the second row. What I want is that once one text box is clicked, another table like the one above is created and appears below that initial table. So this is the inital table that should be replicated on each click:
I can add rows to a table dynamically. Usually triggered by a mouse click but something I am trouble with is how to get the table to a state with no rows or columns just like it has no contents. do believe I can use this codedocument.getElementById('results').tBodies[0];but I am kind of clueless where to find a complete DOM reference or a manual and don't know the attributes or properties I must use to empty (if it is even possible) a previously created table.

can a table width be set dynamically with javascript by referencing the users browser window dimensions or the users video settings? ie: if the user video is set 1280 or less, then the table width is 75%. if the video is above 1280 then the table is 800 pixels.
it may not be a good thing to do, but i like percentages on tables except with large display settings. is it too much overhead?
another thought: would it be easier to implement server side with asp/vbscript?
I'm trying to produce a page with a form on it which is formatted using a table. In the middle is a row which has search parameters in it. What I want to do is to put a drop-down on the left which defaults to "End" but if the user selects another option ("And" or "Or") then I want to insert another row immediately below (which has a drop-down on the right.....) I know I can use the onchange() event to fire off some script, but how do I insert the row into the table?

I am just starting to use the DOM to do some more advanced javascripting so please be patient with my question if it is an ignorant question.
I would like to use the DOM to dynamically create an html table via javascript. While that table is being dynamically created in a javascript function I would like to dynamically insert text and a hyperlink with an image into each cell.
I got pretty far on my own. I was able to dynamically create a table and insert a string into each cell. However, I was not able to use the DOM to insert a hyperlink into each cell. I tried adding it as a new text node and got the text of a link rather then a link. I then tried adding and setting an anchor element but I got nothing. Code:

Does anyone know how to Dynamically add new rows to a table through plain javascript. I tried changing the InnerHTML with getelementbyid() already and that doesn't work.
I am building a schedule web page and before I just had it use plain static HTML and CSS to control the styling. I wrote some javascript that goes through the table's rows, then cells (double for loop), and if the cells innerHTML == "" then the style class is changed. I do have some working code, however it only works in IE. Here's a copy of the script:
<script type="text/javascript"> for (var i = 0; i < document.getElementById('table').rows.length; i ++) for (var j = 0; j < document.getElementById('table').rows(i).cells.length; j ++) if (document.getElementById('table').rows(i).cells(j).innerHTML == "")
and i'd like a javascript function to which i could pass a line number, a destination number, and it would then reorganize the table accordingly. example: rebuildtable(4,2) would result in:
I have tried a method using innerHTML, I seem to be able to access <tr>s' innerhtml (if i do an alert on them i can see their current status), however when i want to replace one tr with some other html it fails for some reason.
i am having a table with some rows, which are shown under some categories. how can i dynamically add some rows to the table. there is a '>>' symbol infront of each category names. when i click on that symbol, i want to enlarge this category by adding more no of rows under this. And the symbol must turn to '<<'. when click on this, the reverse thing, ie, remove some rows and shows the initial rows.
Can someone tell me how to do this if it is possible?
I have a table based web site, and I would like to dynamically change the text that is shown in a particular cell of a table. I give the cell the unique ID label1 so I can get a hold of it, and I can get a javascript to display the data in an alert box (this is just to see if I can access the text) with:
I've created a table with Table Header and the table may or may not contain any rows initially.
I've included a .css file in <head> section of my HTML script and I'm creating rows to the table dynamically using JavaScript (using DOM), and the problem is those created bby DOM are not following style sheet rules applicable for table rows and cells. But the rows created from within HTML script are following style sheet rules. The following is sample which is used to create dynamic row. Code:
Is there a way to dynamically (e.g. upon onClick) change the bgColor attribute of a table cell? I tried cell.setAttribute("bgColor", someColor), where someColor was a string of the form "#RRGGBB", but nothing happened.
Also, how can I set the mouse cursor to be an arrow when it hovers over these table cells? (It's an insertion bar now.)
