I am using JavaScript to show/hide a floating div layer. The code i have works perfectly in Google Chrome but will not display at all in Internet Explorer.

I have created a floating layer using Javascript that remains always on top of page on scrolling.Issue is,at some point while scrolling,the layer flickers continuously.
The html page is as follows:
Many common software systems, JavaScript has a history of security problems. Many of these problems could allow a person with malevolent intent to steal sensitive information from a visitor. The number and type of such holes in security vary among browsers and operating system versions. Most JavaScript security holes have been caught and fixed, but new ones are being discovered all the time. For a list of current security holes check out your browser's and operating system's Web pages. As a Web site author, it is your responsibility to keep up-to-date on the current status of known security holes in the applications you create.
Signing Scripts. In Chapter 11, I explained that JavaScript does not provide the ability to directly access files on the client computer. This can be a very large hurdle to overcome if you're trying to upload a file to a server from the client computer. Fortunately, file uploading is one of many functional enhancements that signed scripts provide. Signed scripts are specially packaged scripts that have been verified and signed to be correct and non-threatening. These scripts have additional rights on the client computer that allow a programmer to do many things that he wouldn't otherwise be able to.
With the introduction of Netscape 4.0, a new security model was put in place that would allow digitally signed scripts to bypass some of the restrictions that had previously been placed on them. A signed script can request expanded privileges from the visitor and, with the visitor's permission, gain access to restricted data. A signed script requests these additional permissions through LiveConnect, which allows your JavaScript code to communicate with the Java Capabilities API. The security model allows JavaScript to access certain classes in Java in order to extend its functionality while still maintaining tight security for the client.
A digital signature is a fingerprint of the original programmer, and it allows the security model of the browser to detect where (or from whom) it originated. A script signer can be a person or an organization. By signing a script, you acknowledge yourself as the author and accept responsibility for the program's actions. A signed script contains a cryptographic checksum, which is just a special value that ensures the signed script has not been changed. When a digital signature is detected, you are assured that the code has not been tampered with since the programmer signed it.
Once you finish writing a script, you can use the Netscape Signing Tool to digitally sign it. Signing a script does the following:
Unambiguously assigns ownership of the script to a person or organization.
Allows an HTML page to use multiple signed scripts.
Places the signed script into a Java Archive (JAR) file.
Places the source of the script in the JAR file.
Once a user confirms the origin of the script and is assured that it has not been tampered with since its signing, he or she can then decide whether to grant the privileges requested by the script based on the validated identity of the certificate owner and validated integrity of the script.
JAVASCRIPT FILE IS AS FOLLOWS:
AND CSS FILE IS AS FOLLOWS:
At some point while scrolling,the div 'movable' flickers continuously,while at some other point,it is perfectly stable.
I currently have a floating layer that appears when someone puts the cursor on an image (information about the image appears in a table format). The cursor moves down the page as you scroll, however, it would be better if the layer would be attached to the cursor. Better positioning. I have asked for help coding this and got a variety of answers, none of which have worked. I would not mind a tooltip, if the tooltip could be formatted to contain a table with text. The only tooltip code I found does not allow the tooltip to be formatted in any way.
My preference would be a layer as used in Dreamweaver that would appear next to the cursor when the cursor is placed on a photo.
I uploaded this code for a floating layer on my website - works really really well, the only problem is - I forgot what the code means. The floating layer is positioned in the center of the screen and I now want to move it to the far left of the screen. How do I adjust the code to do that?? Sorry for the dumb question, but it's been years...someone highlight the section of the code related to the screen position, how to adjust the position?
So this works just fine in FF. In IE7 I am getting this error. I can see my content load in the background, when I hit ok it takes me to a page cannot be displayed page. If I comment out:
Im looking for an advise on where to begin with something I need to accomplish using JavaScript/Ajax on classic ASP platform.
I need to add a floating menu like layer to the site that contains user selected information from the page. So for example, a page has blocks of information organized in a tabular fashion - a lots of them. Each block has a heading containing a check box. This check box serves as a marker that picks the particular item. When the pick is made, a floating status layer is updated with the pick. In this floating layer there is also a submit button that can be click when the user is done with selection.
There is page I've come across that has something similar to what I need to accomplish but I don't know what technology is used. If you go to this site [url] you'll see in the middle of the page several blocks of different items each with green heading titled "Add to request list" containing a check box. As soon as you click the check boxes a separate area called "Your Request List" is populated with some data.
I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with IE6's Msxml2.XMLHTTP object. I have two feed addresses in this stripped down version of my code below. Both work fine in Firefox (using the XMLHttpRequest object), but only the thinkgeek one works in IE. In the processFeed function, it shows the problem - the first alert shows 0 for the wikihow feed in IE, though it can still display the responseText. Any insight? Code:
i want to run a bit of js not in ie but in all others within some js i'm doing.is this the way to do it? (got this from o'reilly's js;definitive guide book):
Code: /*@cc_on @if( @_jscript ) ; // nothing for internet explorer[code]....
how should braces be in that, if they should at all? i mean if i wanted multiple lines of js code in the either non-ie or ie blocks how and where would {}'s go?also does that work for ie8?
my site seems to be working perfectly on firefox but when I access it on internet explorer everything loads fine but there is a yellow marker on the status bar of IE saying there are errors on the page. I copied the source into dreamweaver to check for browser specefic bugs but the only bugs that came up were that in Netscape. So any idea why this is happening? The link to my site is in my profile.
I am having trouble with Internet Explorer AGAIN.How do you use the setTimeout for it?This is what I am using and it is working on all of the other browser:Code:setTimeout("growContact(" + (height+20) + ")", 0);
I have a problem, and maybe someone knows the solution.
Context : - Browser : IE 6.0 - Application server : Livewire Pro - Client OS : Windows 98 SE - Server OS : NT4 - I have a frameset, including several pages, but only one will be used for the example. -------- | a | -------- | b | -------- - a form on the main page (a.html i.e.) - a data is manually typed, then I submit the form => the action will redirect to a new page (c.html) - on this new page, I do a history.go(-1), so I'm back on the a.html page, and the data is still there (it's ok) - cache parameters : "check on every page visited"
Problem : - From the main page, if a popup gives the data to the form, so after the submit and the history.go(-1), the form contains NO data !!!
So, the data is lost when the data input is not made by hand.
I have no troubles with Netscape/Mozilla, but only with IE.
I've developed a calendar program in javascript, and up until now I've done most of my testing using Mozilla and Firefox. Everything works fine, but when I try to use Internet Explorer my response time is sometimes 50 times slower than using Mozilla.
I know I haven't given you much to go by, but I'm not looking for an answer so much as an approach to debugging the problem. For example, does anyone here know of a good web site which deals with browser-specific javascript performance issues?
I am wondering if there is any way to write a VBScript macro for IE, just like the action that we can do in MS Excel (Tools -> Macro -> Visual Basic Editor).
Also, I believe we can automate actions to IE pages using VBScript, like when you right click a web page and choose "Export to Microsoft Excel". But I have no idea how to get it.
I have a shortcut on my desctop that points to web location. When a user clicks on it the Internet explorer opens the web location but without the navigation bar status,location bar address bar, but with resize handlers.
Ok, if this cannot be done is there a javascirpt that can imediatly remove this when the page is called?
Is it possible with JavaScript to prevent that a User is closing the Internet Explorer? Because it is important for me that the User pushes the cancel Button of this webapplication how can i do this?
I have a link which when clicked either fades up a full screen overlay and a popup box ontop or fades them both down. This works perfect in every browser except IE7 and IE8. The popup box fades in and out OK but the overlay just appears or disappears with no fading (which is bizarre!)
I'm new to Javascript programming. I have designed a Javascript to carry information from one page to another. It works fine in firefox but does not work in internet explorer. Is there some coding that needs to be specified for my script to work in ie?
