Function Not Working On Button Click Event - Object Expected
Oct 16, 2009
I wrote a simple javascript function but I cant get it to work upon a button click event because it keeps telling me that "object is expected" ? could you please identify where the error is? Heres my code
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<script type="text/Javascript" language="Javascript">
function output(){
alert("Hello world"); }
</script>
<head>
<body>
<input type="button" name="btnSubmit" value="submit" onclick="output();" />
<input type=button onclick="output();">
</body>
</html>
It keeps indicating me that there is an error when calling the method on button click.

I have a<button>element inside of which I have 2<span>elements. I have 2 attached jquery click event handlers for each of the span elements so I can do whatever I like for each click. This is all working fine in Chrome and the click event is captured in the correct order: first on any of the span elements and then the event bubbles up to the parent button element. The problem is that in Firefox the click event does not fire for any of the span elements, just the button event handler logs the event as being fired.[URL]..

Have been hammering away at this problem for a couple of hours and found that the 'type' attribute of the jQuery script files is set to 'application/javascript'. This works in Firefox but not IE. When changed to 'text/javascript' the IE error on $(document).ready event disappears. As yet no apparent side effects have occured. This is the only scenario where I have seen 'application/javascript' ever used so why this instead of 'text/javascript'?

I'm checking for a radio button's value and hiding/showing a node based on that value, but it's not working right. Two radio buttons: one's value is yes, the other no. If you click on yes, the div shows up. When you click no, it hides, so that works.
But I have a list of checkboxes that also may or may not show that element based on the radio button selection, and it's this part that isn't working.
$('[name="'+obj.name+'"]:checkbox').click(function () {
aThroughS = ($('[name="'+obj.name+'"]:checkbox:lt(19):checked').length > 0),
tSelected = ($('[name="'+obj.name+'"]:checkbox:eq(19):checked').length > 0),
rSelected = ($('[name="'+obj.name+'"]:checkbox:eq(17):checked').length > 0),
[Code].....

My very simple function clickEvent1() (defined in the page head) that expands/shrinks a hidden tag <h6> with text, id="lignep" in the body
Here is a code which throws error for line 104 in the page body with message "Object expected", but I can't figure out what is wrong in this line that calls for function clickEvent1():
<h6 id="ligne"; onClick="clickEvent1()"; style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 130%">
Here the page with Javascript in the title:
<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:offic... xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

I am now able to list the folders and files in a directory. However, when I try to pass the values into another function to open the folder/file, I encounter an error saying object expected. I'm guessing that its the in the file paths that is causing the error. so my solution is to find the and replace it with a \ before passing it to the function to open the file. but the str.replace("\","\\") does not seem to work.

I have come across an issue that only happens with IE.I have a custom save function that is designed to handle different ajax submits but I will simplify it for debugging. The issue is that once I make a submit everthing is fine at first. Then once I try to submit a second time it craps out. I am checking to see if there is an onsubmit function and then executing it like so before continuing. After the inital submit it is no longer found. When I alert the typeof document on the form it returns object but when I add the onsubmit it says object expected or object is null or undefined.
Code:
function secureBarSubmit(formId)
{
alert(typeof document.getElementById(formId)); // object always
alert(typeof document.getElementById(formId).onsubmit); // func first time then it is broken
[code]...

I want to call the click event of the link (anchor tag) on the click of the button. I used this code below in the click event of button to call links click event and it works fine in IE.
document.getElementById('linktag').click();
But, this doesn't work in Firefox. I googled a bit and found that in firefox, you have to do something more to achieve this behaviour. So, I ended up doing this on button click to work in firefox:
var link=document.getElementById('linktag');
var e = document.createEvent('MouseEvents');
e.initEvent(
[code]....
The above code does the click on link when I click on the button. But my problem now is that I have defined a link as
<a href="mailto:abc@xyz.com?subject=abc&body=email body">email </a>
and when click is called and mailto links opens my email client, it somehow ignores the subject and body parameters of the link. It works properly when i actually click a link element. but it doesn't work when i simulate the click event by code written above. above dispatching event code somehow ignores the link parameters?

I have an object that has a click event I'm trying to trigger. However in the click event I have the following if statement:
if(event.button != 0){return true;}
This if statement allows right clicks to go through and activate but it also prevents me from triggering the event. Any ideas on how to prevent this? If I remove the if statement from the first click function everything works as intended.Here's my example code based off of the trigger event examples:
<!DOCTYPE html>

I'm receiving an "Object Expected" Error (Line:28, Char:7). I'm confused as to what is happening. I have virtually the same exact function in a different web page and I do not receive an error with this other page. Also, if I run this code in Fire Fox, I do not receive any error. Is there something that I'm missing? The error is pointing to "TextChanged();". Code:

But when I click the button, I get the yellow triangle of doom with Error on Page which tells me "Object Expected - line 122. So I go to line 122 and see the end center tag, and that doesn't help me one bit, of course... So now I turn to you all. What did I do wrong?

I have a button that is a facebook button that is coded as:
<div class="fbshare1"><a class="login-button"><span>Like</span></a></div>
In a js file, I reference it by
$('.fbshare1 .login-button span').live('click', function(e) {
It works fine in Firefox and IE8 but IE7 doesn't recognize the click. Is there a reason for that or is some other kind of problem?

I have a html document, in which I include two standard libraries of
functions (supposed to help me with cross browser issues), and one
application-specific script file. All Javascript fcoz.
The very first attempt at invoking a function from this last script file
fails miserably in IE (6) but works as it should in Moz (1.4)
I have tried putting alert()s here and there, so I (think I) can tell
the exact spot where IE dies.
Structure is like this (all in HEAD):
<script type="text/javascript" src="../libPlatform.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../libDOM.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tooltip.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function register() {
initAPI();
alert('after init');
regTooltip('a1');
alert('after dreg-1');
regTooltip('a2');
}
</script>
initAPI sits in libPlatform, and executes. I get to see the first alert.
And then, boom, IE script errors on page: Object expected (points to
'regTooltip')
Am I missing something here? If my code is wrong, why is Mozilla so
forgiving about it? How can I persuade IE to get the function?
Note: if I put regTooltip() right above register(), so locally in the
document, it works.

I am still new to JavaScript and have a simple JavaScript & PHP journal program that allows the user to enter a title and description to be automatically added to a page that list their journal entries.
Everything works fine except for one part that I am just lost on, at the bottom of the page there is a dropdown menu which lists monthly archives, but when you select any month from the list you get a script error and nothing happens. You are supposed to go to a page that would list al the entries from that month.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I do not have the knowledge yet to fix this nor can I find the site that originally created this script.
Here is the Error I get:

I know that it should work in those browsers, so hopefully someone can tell me where I'm going wrong.I created a function....it does not sit inside the document.ready function, so maybe that is part of the issue. I am not sure how to accomplish this another way. Wasn't sure how to pass an argument to the function using an anonymous function in document.ready. The idea is to have a side navigation panel that shows/hides divs on the page. I am creating a website for my upcoming wedding and want to do it all on one page and just fade in the divs. If I click on 'ceremony' for example, I want it to hide any open divs, then show the ceremony div. For the divs I always want on the page, I gave a class of 'static.' That is the reason for the 'not' condition in the code. I hope I have explained clearly enough. Here is the code,Btw, this does work in firefox6 and ie9 without issue.Here is the javascript:
function showDiv(showThis){
$(this).click(function() {
$('#containers > div:not(.static)').css('display','none');

I'm new to JavaScript and I wrote this code to play with. Oddly, if I
enter text in a box and then press the button, I only get the onChange
event for the text box and not the button's onclick event. But if I
press the button without entering text first, the button click event
does work. What's up?
<html>
<body>
<h3>Events on Buttons and Text Boxes</h3>
<input id="myTextBox1" type="text" onChange="doChange1()" /<br />
<input id="myTextBox2" type="text" onChange="doChange2()" /<br />
<input id="myButton" type="button" onclick="doClick()" value="Click me"
/>
<script type="text/javascript">
function doChange1(e)
{
var val = document.getElementById("myTextBox1").value;
alert("You typed: " + val);
}
function doChange2(e)
{
var val = document.getElementById("myTextBox2").value;
alert("You typed: " + val);
}
function doClick(e)
{
var _num = prompt("Enter a number", "100");
alert("You typed: " + _num); // number converted to string
automatically
}
