Element Onclick Property Function Not Work In IE

Dec 3, 2011

I'm writing a script that dynamically generates a menu table. Each TD has an onclick property which serves as a link. Everything works properly in other browsers since setAttribute onclick works. However, this function does not work in IE, and you're supposed to do this instead:
elementName.onClick = "blah";

Here's my code that works in all browsers but IE:
Code:
var truePath = "document.location.href=" + "'" + "/" + urls[i] + "'";
cell.setAttribute("onclick",truePath);
cell.onclick = truePath;

For IE, if I set the cell.onclick value to truePath, nothing happens when I click on the menu. However, it works fine in Firefox and Opera because of the setAttribute function. How I could get this to work in IE? My script is complete besides this part... I hate IE. Why can't they follow the rules?

Am I doing something wrong?

Toggle Visibility Of Element - OnClick Function

Sep 6, 2009

I found this little script and it works fine but the only thing is when the page first loads it displays the "This is foo" text. I would like it to not display the text until it is clicked. So instead of it displaying "This is foo" when the page loads I would like it to not display anything.

Here is the script:
Code:
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function toggle_visibility(id) {
var e = document.getElementById(id);
if(e.style.display == 'block')
e.style.display = 'none';
else
e.style.display = 'block';
}
//-->
</script>
<a href="#" onclick="toggle_visibility('foo');">Click here to toggle visibility of element #foo</a>
<div id="foo">This is foo</div>
</body>

<dt class="title">aaa</dt>
<dd class="subtitle">bbb</dd>
<dd class="city">ccc</dd>
<dd class="email">ddd</dd>

I Can Not Add Onclick Property With SetAttribute On IE.

Dec 10, 2006

I am using the following code to create an 'a' element with 'texto' to add the onclick property to an object:

var vinculo = xCreateElement('a');
var nodoTexto = document.createTextNode('texto');
xAppendChild(vinculo, nodoTexto);
xAppendChild(celda2, vinculo);
vinculo.setAttribute('onclick', 'buscarSolucion(1,1,1)');

'celda2' is a table cell. This works with FF but not with IE. I solved this using a comment from here for the 'name' attribute, like this:

...
vinculo = xCreateElement('<a onClick="' + onClick + '">');
...

But I would like to put it in a function to make it general for any element that has the 'onclick' property. Is there any other way to set the 'onclick' attribute & to be understand by IE & FF?

NOTE: I also found that I can not set 'colspan', I have to set colSpan. Also, I can not set 'class' I have to use the canonical method with 'object.className=...'

JQuery :: Applying A CSS Property From One Element Over To Another

Mar 21, 2011

I'm trying to run a function that reads the css property of an element and copies it over to another element on click.

I didn't want to post my ACTUAL attempt to code this, mostly out of shame. But I'm pretty certain that it's ridiculously incorrect.

DOM Element Special Property Access?

Sep 21, 2010

I've been having this issue with Javascript that is just not getting resolved for a while. What I am basically doing is building a simple web browser extension that injects javascript on certain pages. I am using Firefox, Chrome and Safari. The issue I am having is accessing these so called "special properties" on a particular page. They look like the regular classNames, id, textContent and such but don't appear to be standard. It would be very helpful if I can access them.

A particular example would be in Yahoo Mail. When you are in your inbox you have list of messages. With each message row there are associated attributes. You can get to them with your web inspector or if you search for the div element with id "PagedTableView_wrapper", then follow the first child and then second child and you get a list of these messages being rendered. Each one of those rows has the regular className properties and such but also has "_checked", "_focused", "_selected" that look like custom Yahoo ones. I basically want to read those.

The issue is I can't. I always end up getting a null exception, as if it doesn't exist. I can read the className and the other standard ones fine, but not the special ones. (I've verified its the same element as well). I have tried the DOM navigation route with indexing, jQuery and XPATH, all with the same result. The weird part is that I can see them with the webInspector! Whats even more strange is that if I run firebug or commands in the Console, it actually works! But it doesn't work for my injected code/extension! Baffled.

DOM Element.style.property Isn't Preloaded With CSS Values

Aug 5, 2011

I ended up having to preset style with JavaScript.

Here is what I did.

CSS Code:

JavaScript Code:

HTML4Strict Code:

The first time I hit toggle, nothing happens. The second time I hit toggle, the hidden list appears, but only because I used JavaScript to set the display property.

My workaround is to do this in the HTML after the element to be toggled.

JavaScript Code:

Putting this code in the elements onload event property didn't work either, which I found odd, but I read that it was not the recommended way of doing this.

I can't figure out why the CSS declaration didn't load into the JavaScript HTML DOM. I suspect it's some sort of order of execution thing, like the difference between the two following function declarations.

JavaScript Code:

Object.property = New Function()

Aug 10, 2006

Some of the object properties in the Dojo Toolkit are set to objects but they are using syntax like this:

object.property = new function() {
this.property = someValue;
this.property = someFunction;
}

Is the property set to a new object and if so what is the "new function()" statment doing?
