Is there a way to force the client to open a particular file type. Currenlty
text files that are opened by the web site are opened inside the browser, I
would like to stop this and have them prompted to open or save the file.
I set up a function in JQuery to do .load() to a DIV. (This function appears to work only in IE.) This works fine if I am loading an html document to the DIV, but if I load a .pdf file, it looks like it doesn't use the right mime type for interpretation. It looks like it just streams the binary code into the div. Is there a way use JQuery to load a PDF file into a DIV and have it render correctly?
Here is my source:
<html><head>
<title>jQuery test page</title>
<script src="jquery-1.3.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadContent(elementSelector, sourceUrl) {
$(""+elementSelector).load(sourceUrl); }
</script></head><body>
<div id="top" style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px" >
<a href="javascript:loadContent('#content', '[URL]');">I work</a>
<p><a href="javascript:loadContent('#content', '[URL]');">I don't work</a>
<p>Here's the stuff!</div>
<div id="content" style="position:absolute;top:200px;left:0px">content will be loaded here</div></body>
</html>
If you click the link that doesn't work you get:

how to determine the mime type of a document embedded in an iframe. The only case we need is in determining whether it's a pdf in the iframe -- I wanted to just read the extension of a document, such as source="thedocument.pdf", but unfortunately the way the web service is configured is that a url we are given is in the form of [URL] where the digits at the end would be the id of a document.

We have a webpage open with a link to that IE only site, now is there a way to open that link in IE from FF? We have full control over these machines, so we could install batch software or whatever it would take.
I have a simple iFrame which I use to open other websites. However, some websites force themselves to be opened in "parent" windows when links are clicked, or even always. How do I go about avoiding this? I believe there is a way to set my iFrame as "self" or something like this in order for all sites to still only load in iFrames, but I'm not sure how.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I force a window, pened alone, to be displayed in its frame set?
tried this:
if (parent.location.href == self.location.href) {
window.location.href = '../'
}
the problem is that the original page is replaced by the main.htm page (the
default page for the 'main' frame)., because the open event of the menu page
calls for the main.htm to be loaded. Is there a way that I could pass a page name as an argument to the index page at all? Something like
window.location.href='index.html?Loc=IT_Study___In formation.htm'
I'm having issues with links on my intranet pages that navigate outside of my intranet to other intranets hosted in the same server farm. When I click the links they just do nothing. Links within my intranet site work fine. Is there any kind person here that is capable of pointing me in the direction of resources to force a popup using javascript and making it navigate to the desired link?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to display HTML text inside a div and have the page open scrolled to the bottom. (My div has overflow:auto so that it appears with scroll bars)
I have found this that works on a textarea:
document.all.MyDivId.scrollTop = document.all.MyDivId].scrollHeight;
But this doesn't work on a div. I am using a div because the text I am displaying contains HTML. Surely it is possible to simply set a scroll bar to the bottom in a div?
is there anyway to force an event, like mouseover? I have a page that
loads, and due to some complex js code (not mine) it fails to write
labels to tabs until the user does a mouseover on the tabs. the page
load event happens beforre the tabs are loaded. Once the user
mouseovers the tabs, the labels of the tabs appear, and stay there. it
is irritating. i would like to force a mouseover so the tab names
appear.
I have a page where I set document.location.href

View 17 Replies View RelatedI have a script that parses window.location.hash to figure out which xml
file to load. The xml files populate a page on a framed site. The code works
correctly to a point.
If I have a seperate html page to support each xml it works. I would like to
eliminate the individual html pages becuase only one should be needed.
When I use one page the first link works, then the second one does nothing
(doesn't refresh the frame). If I click to a static image for the frame then
click the next xml link it works.
What can I do to force the frame to update? I am clicking on a HREF link
that should re-load the html page, but with the new xml data.
I am a complete JS newbie. I am trying to make one radio button assume a certain value when another one in a different group is clicked. This is a conference registration form for which most applicants will pay, but some do not. It is passing form data to a ColdFusion backend, and

I have a div with a scroll bar. It contains various child divs, and when the user sees them, they are in vertical order. So he can scroll to whatever child div he wants to. Then he can click on an arrow, and the entire child div expands to reveal a lot of text. This all works. But I'd also like to make the child div scroll up to the top of the parent div. Otherwise, it could happen that the user clicks on a child div that is near the bottom of the screen, and it expands, but most of the content is below the screen, which means he has to use the browser's own scrollbar to see the rest. I know that javascript has a 'scrollby' function, butI wouldn't know how much to scroll it, and I also want to use a jquery selector to identify the child div.
