JQuery :: Autocomplete - Textarea Up And Down Arrow Key Usability
Jun 3, 2009The autocomplete plugins disables the use of the up and down arrow keys. In a single line input area this is not an issue, but on a textarea it is very noticeable (especially if you are a poor-spller like I am). I think the arrow keys should only be overridden when the autocomplete "drop-down" is visible. As an example fill the "Multiple Birds (remote)" example at [URL] with "Birds can be found all over the wurld, some such birds are:" now try and use the arrow keys to go back and fix the errors.

Jun 26, 2006Okay - for me, javascript is a great add-on to many websites & i've been using it since college. For any website viewers using norton internet security, it's worthless.
How Symantec have managed to continue selling something that is consistantly blocking commonly used (& very useful) scripting technologies without being sued?... i'll never know.
Problem is, anyone viewing a js-enhanced site ends up seeing a blank page, because the code is intercepted and replaced before it gets chance to be displayed. Neat huh? Now, surely there has to be a way to conquer their ridiculous 1-size-fits-all approach to js blocking?
JQuery :: BlockUI Scroll - Slight Usability Bug With BlockUI
Feb 1, 2011I noticed a slight usability bug with blockUI. when we block, with a message div - the page is still scrollable. however the message div that comes up, stays where it is, as user scrolls the page. So for example, if the vertical screen resolution is low, the user can not see the bottom of the message div, and in my case the message div has some appept or cancel buttons, which makes my UI unusable?
Are there any workarounds to this solution, other then placing the message div to the top of the page?
Can JS Suss Out "on-site" Vs Off-site HTTP Requests?
Dec 5, 2006this may be more of an "html" issue, but I'll wing it.
i've got a multi-language site, where the home-page of each language group
features a link to a popup window that offers background info on site
management. the popup is fired by a javascript function, when they click
the site management link. there's also a "window close" function button so
they can nuke it as they please.
now, oddly, people who search for my site in the chinese language on google,
are sent directly to the site management popup window, which of course,
opens in their "full" browser window, and which also has no links back to
the main site, because it's meant to open only as an "accessory" to the main
site.
my question is this: is there any way, with Javascript, that I could
determine if they arrived at this window from "off-site" (ie, a google
search), and therefore offer such "off-site" visitors a link back to the
principal site, a link that would be hidden for visitors who clicked the
popup window from my own site?
Posting Data From A Form On My Site To A Form On Someone Else's Site:
Feb 25, 2006Basically, I registered for a free board at one of the various sites because my server doesn't support .cgi scripts. I want to know if there is a way to have the data from a form on my site post to the board site -A user would fill in my form, click submit, and a new post would appear on the board site -as if they had entered it there.
If you can point me in the right direction, I would be grateful. Here is my thinking.
A) I can't locate the script that they use to perform a "submit"; so I thought I might enter their <head> data (as far as xmlns, href, etc) in my <head>; that my website might call up their script files, css sheets, etc.
B)I could code my own Javascript function to send my form data to their site. If I knew how to simulate a mouseclick on someone else's site, I could have the script "click" there, paste the data, and hit the submit button. But I don't.
C) I could size their site down to the form itself and put it in a frame on my page
Option C is clearly easier, but I would prefer option A or B. I have time and will happily do the research myself; provided that I know if approach A or B is even feasible.

Web SQL Spec On The W3C Site?
May 11, 2010I was looking at the Web SQL spec on the W3C site (here)the example code
Code:
function prepareDatabase(ready, error) {
return openDatabase('documents', '1.0', 'Offline document storage', 5*1024*1024, function (db) {[code]....
I don't understand how/why prepareDatabase is set twice.Is there a term for this? I can't for the life of me think what it is. I know I've seen it before though.

Jul 23, 2005There are times that I am using another person's computer who has no
knowledge of updating HTML and does not even know if he has the
necessary programs to do the FTP.
I may see a minor problem with my site and would like to change it on
the fly. What I would like to know are the answers to the following
questions.
1. Is there any way to display unformated HTML within a web page
without using the browsers source facility?
2. Is there a way to modify it? Maybe showing it in a form textarea.
3. Is there a way for javascript or a form to do an FTP back to the web
site? This would obviously require id and password.
Keeping A Menubar On Top Of The Site
Jul 23, 2005I was trying to "pin" a menubar to the top of a site. It should allways stay on its absolute position. Especially when the user scrolls the page...
I did like this:
<div id="object1" style="position:absolute; visibility:left:50px;
top:50px"> MENU </div>
called from a timer:
document.object1.style.top=50;
OR
window.document.object1.style.top=50;
OR
document.object1.top=50;
OR
window.document.object1.top=50;
none of them worked...now what?

How To Detect Navigating Away From A Site
Jun 19, 2006I have a web application that has basic authentication turned on (IIS).
What I would like to accomplish is detect whether user is navigating
away from the site or simply going to the different page using
JavaScript. I am aware that it is easy to detect where you came from
(referrer), but I haven't been able to find a way to where you're going
to. I did my fair amount of research online, but I couldn't find a
solution for this.
However, my boss told me that he has seen a website that detects the
fact that you're navigating away from your site. Does anyone know
anything about this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedAdd Site To Trusted Sites
Jul 20, 2005The next step after Grant Wagner's simple solution to my "Get computer name" thread, is to automatically add the web application's site to the list of trusted sites in IE.
Obviously, the user should get a popup first that says "Do you want to add this site?"
I've looked through the Wscript doco in MSDN, but can't find a way of manipulating this browser setting.
I'd expect it to be something like "setHomePage" - namely "addTrustedSite".
Is it possible?

View 3 Replies View RelatedDisplaying Content From One Site On Another
Sep 24, 2009You've all seen it before banner codes/rss feed displayers/twitter feeds/etc. All you do is copy and paste a <script src="[URL]"></script> somewhere on your website and it retrieves the html from the remote server and displays it on your site. I have a back end php page that pulls the required information from my DB based off a userid passed to it i.e.:
mywebserver.com/display.php?id=xxxx
Is the javascript just a simple ajax call to my php page passing straight on the userid passed to it or is there something more complex to it? I was always under the impression you couldn't do remote ajax calls to a page on a different server, which if I get this right a script off my server included on another domain becomes a member script of that domain and not my own?
Site Slow In IE7 - Speed It Up?
Apr 6, 2010I've got the following site that loads great in FF and Chrome (no surprise), but is terribly slow in IE7. It's even quick in IE6, but not 7. Here's the site code...
Now I'm using JQuery in a couple places, but it's by no means nothing crazy. The page is fairly simple.
I thought of preloading the main content images, but even after they are loaded in the cycle, the loading time is still slow.
