Get An Element's Display Property

Nov 20, 2007

How would I get an element's display property? For example, I can get the width by using the_element.offsetWidth, but what do I use for display?

I tried the_element.style.display, but it doesn't seem to work.

TR And TD Elements - Colspan Property Has No Effect

Jul 7, 2011

I have the following code which creates tr and td elements then adds them to a table. combArray is a global array and there are no problems inserting all the values. The only problem is assigning a colspan = 7 has no effect; everything is still squished into 1 row. The entire function runs and is not crashing. I even try and assign colspan twice, once on line 11 and again after the row has been appended at the end of the function on line 40. Why isn't colspan working?

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function fillVariables( idDigit ) {
var tbody = document.getElementById("zrow" + idDigit + "tbody");
var newNodeText = "";
var varCount = 1;
var fixedCount = 1; .....

Display Property Error Only In IE7?

Aug 12, 2010

I have a page: [URL] that works perfectly fine in every browser I try, except for actual IE7 (it even works fine in IE8 emulating IE7). When you search for something on that page and have a display of results, each result has a link that changes a table row's display to visible, and hides the row when clicked again. It doesn't do that in IE7. here are no errors or warning in Firefox's Error Console. But IE7 has an "Error on Page" notice (which does NOT appear in IE8 emulating IE7), that says:

Line: 59
Char: 11
Error: Could not get the display property. Invalid argument.

[Code]I really don't know what to do, or where to begin. Everything in my limited knowledge seems to be working just fine. Most of my site's visitors use IE8, but enough use actual IE7 that I really need to fix this.

Toggle The Display Property To Populate A Div With Text

Jan 4, 2006

currently I have a page with six links. Now since I want to display the imformation on those six links (when each is clicked) in a #mainDiv (below all the links). if figured the most efficient way of doing so was to have all six "links" in six different div's -- all with display: none... and when a user clicks a link I just have the appropriate div set to display: block.

Dynamically Setting Display Property Reloads The Window

Jul 11, 2011

I am currently encountering a problem with setting "display" property from "none" to "block":

Browsers will refresh itself when the display property is changed; this causes the element to display then suddenly disappear after the page reload. Do you guys have an idea what I can do to avoid it?

I tried using jquery's show command, css command with setting display to block, and pure javascript method like document.getElementById("theId").style.display="block".

Object Doesn't Support This Property Or Method - Dynamically Add An Attribute To Some Elements

Jul 15, 2010

I get an error when I try to dynamically add an attribute to some elements, since I been getting the error "Object doesn't support this property or method" in IE I reduced the attribute value to just alert.

Code JavaScript:

Note that in firefox all the elements with the class boxcontainer gets "hello world" alert. I removed this specific code (shown above) out of the page and the error in IE goes away, so I'm 100% sure nothing else is causing it.

Change The Display Property Of Specific Divs Using Select Boxes

Feb 23, 2009

I'm attempting to change the display property of certain divs depending on the criteria of multiple select boxes.

I got it to work by GetElementsByTagName('div') but it then selects all divs rather then the select few i actually want it to work on. I tried changing the selection to GetElementsByName but this doesn't work, why i don't really know.

I've dumped the source code below:

Switch Between A Series Of Divs - On Clicking A Navigation Tab The Divs Display Property Is Set To 'block'

Jan 22, 2009

I am using javascript to switch between a series of divs, on clicking a navigation tab the divs display property is set to 'block' and all other divs have their display property set to 'none'. That works fine, the problem I have is when I redirect to another page (e.g. a PHP script) on return to the index the divs have reset and only the default div is shown, rather than the div that was showing when the user left the page. The solution, as I see it, is two stages: Write a function to display the relevant div based on the variable passed to it, then work out how to pass this variable around various pages (post/get). I am very inexperienced with javascript and it drives me mad that the script literally does nothing rather than throwing up an error (as in PHP) but this is what I have so far in terms of a function:

Display Elements By Tag Name?

Feb 17, 2011

I am trying to display some xml elements that are formatted like [code]...

I can see that this is because of the [0] in the getElementsByTagName - if I change it to 1 or 2 it shows the 2nd or 3rd set of directions. But I want it to show all of them.

Using JS Cookies To Change Elements To Display:none

Aug 16, 2004

I've been trying to hack together a certain javascript lately, but as a complete novice I don't quite know how to achieve what I want.

Basically, I have a few information-request forms on my site. Once someone has submitted the form, I'd like the confirmation page to set a cookie, using JavaScript. Once the cookie has been set, I'd want to be able to hide page elements that have a particular ID or CSS class. Obviously, I can hide these elements using display:none. But, that only needs to apply to these elements if the cookie exists. If there is no cookie, the elements obviously need to show.

I've done quite a bit of research about JavaScript and cookies, but unfortunately have not found anything that works "out of the box" or that I understand well enough to hack together. What terms or concepts should I be looking for to learn how to do this? Or better, is there a script already out there that will work? If I could only find a working example, I think I could understand much better.

JQuery :: Cycle Plugin - Only Display Certain Elements?

Dec 14, 2011

check the code snippet below:

<div id="Mu00">
<div id="Mu001"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery('#Mu001').load('http://www.myserver.com/page1.html');

[Code]....

NOTE jQuery load function is used to fetch the content for the <div> above.

Everything works (it displays the content that is fetched by jquery load function), but it also displays the literal HTML code "jQuery('#Mu001').load('http://www.myserver.com/page1.html');
" and "jQuery('#Mu002').load('http://www.myserver.com/page2.html');

Stopping Display=none Div Form Elements From Being Submitted?

Jan 25, 2010

I've got a <div> inside a <form> which I show/hide when a user clicks on a show/hide link. That div holds several form options which I DON'T want to submit with the form when the div is hidden.

At the moment, even when my div is hidden, the values within it are still being submitted with the form.

Is it possible to / how do I - hide the div so any values enclosed in it do NOT get submitted along with the form?

Count The Number Of Elements Who Display Block?

Sep 26, 2009

So never done this one before so I am having a bit of a time trying to figure this one out.

Say I have a list of LI element and only a few of them have a inline style of display block, the rest have a display of none.

How would I go about looping through and dertmining the number of elements that have a display of block?

for(var m = 0; m < li.style.display.length; i++)
{
alert(m);
};

The above is just crazy but where my mind melts..

Combine Elements From Several Sites In A Single Display?

May 23, 2011

At my job I constantly need to be up to the moment on the weather, and I want to create a display that will combine important elements from different weather services onto one screen that I can hang on the wall. What are need are basic <div>'s from several different sites. I know I could use iframes but I don't want to display entire sites, just the elements I need from them. Then I want to be able to have some DOM control over them (e.g. setting refresh time for each element).

Display:block And Sending Form Elements

Feb 8, 2006

I have a feature similar to 'folding', where the user can hide parts of the page if they dont want to use these features.. some of this is done automatically, if a user chooses one type of template on the page, the settings for that one are displayed (and the other settings invisibleised).

Originally I did this with php, reloading the page with a variable to switch the sections on or off. This was proving to be a pain re speed and also cos there were a lot of form elements that needed to be saved each time it was reloaded.

So I decided to do this with javascript, using the following function:

function toggleDisplay(divId) {
var div = document.getElementById(divId);

div.style.display = (div.style.display=="block" ? "none" : "block");}

using block and none to either display or hide.

Problem is, I have lots of form stuff in the areas that will be hidden, and these are getting sent through on submit even though they are in a div thats set to display:none. I was hoping display:none would actually result in these not being sent.

anybody know of a nice clean way of preventing these hidden elements not being sent? (there are lots of em so it would have to be applied to the whole div that contains em)

JQuery :: Display Bunch Of <li> Elements Consecutively Using .animate?

Apr 4, 2010

I tried to enumerate through a index array to assign different ids to newly retrieved JSON data, the li element is initially set to be hidden and the hidden data can be seen from console. But the browser is failing to show the data when I tried to use ('li#a').animate({opacity: "show"}, "slow"); I also tried to use .animate right after each <li> appendTo the body and failed to show as well. I am wondering how to fix this? Is there any better way of handling this with out creating an enumerating array?

JQuery :: Usage Of Animate - Elements First Disappear Then Display

Nov 15, 2010

I have a list for example
<ul id="applications">
<li id="id-1" class="util"></li>
<li id="id-1" class="app"></li>
<li id="id-1" class="util"></li>
<li id="id-1" class="app"></li>
</ul>

Then I want a select some of the list with some animate effect, first the all of the elements would disappear, then the elements that I wanted would display one by one the code:
$('#applications li').each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.hide("slow");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});
$('#applications li[class="app"]').each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.fadeIn("fast");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});

The final effect is that all the elements would disappear first but the element I wanted would not display? Then I think about the queue,before I use it I change a little about the code:
$('#applications li').each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.hide("slow");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});
$('#applications li')
.each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.fadeIn("fast");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});

The yellow part is the different from the former one, the effect is that all the elements would disappear first, then all the would display again without any problem!

Toggle Display Of Form Elements Or Separate Forms?

Feb 20, 2009

I am creating a form to enable advertisers to create listings on an accommodation directory site.One of the form fields is a drop down with the following optionshotelguestHouseselfCateringinnholidayParkcampingThe top part of my form is the same for all these accommodation types. However I need to include a section specific to the accommodation type. This section will include groups of radio buttons and checkboxes allowing the advertiser to choose which facilities/amenities are available.For exampleA hotel may have 24 room service campsite may have a shop on siteI was planning to have a separate div for each of the accommodation specific sections and toggling the display based on the choice of the accommodation type from a drop down list.I have just had a horrible thought that it may be possible if javascript was not enabled that either none of the sections would be displayed or even worse all of them at once.
