I have looked everywhere I can find to look and googled until I am
cross-eyed and am hoping somebody knows what I'm doing wrong.
I have an HTML application (.hta) working fine, except one thing. I'm
trying to write to a local database from a .htm window (opened from
the main .hta window) and it doesn't work with any of the combinations
I've tried (and I admit to having tried a lot).
Here is one method I've tried:
strSQL = "Update myTable SET myField = 'myValue' WHERE myID = 12;"
var db = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection");
db.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0";0
db.ConnectionString = "Data Source='c:myDirectorymyDatabase.mdb'";
db.Open;
db.execute(strSQL);
I can easily access the information in the myDatabase.mdb and display
it on the screen.
I can ask for updated information to be input on the screen.
But stuffing that updated information back into the database is the
problem.
Since I'm stuck in an .htm window, I don't have VBScript available, do
I? If VBScript isn't available and it isn't physically possible with
Javascript, then I'll have to revert to .hta windows, where I know I
have VBScript available. But I'd rather do it all in Javascript
within the .htm so as to avoid the security message that pops up when
the .hta opens a new .hta. For various reasons I don't think it is
possible for me to do this whole project within a single .hta.
Can i use single jquery and html to do some database manipulation i.e. database transaction.

I thought the syntax was correct, but maybe it is something else?
I have a calculate.js javascript file where all the function that execute the calculation is consist in this file. Now, I want to retrieve a data from the database for javascript calculation and be done in this calculate.js file. I have search a lot of methods to do this but most said cannot do this from a client-side.

A complete explanation of the code can be found in chapters 4 and 5 here:Building Android Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (sets up the HTML).Building Android Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (sets up the DB storage).Stark uses a form for the user to enter data, then the attached js file inserts the data into the SQLite database:
HTML Code:
<div id="createEntry">
<div class="toolbar">
<h1>New Setup</h1>
[code]...
how can I redirect the form to a different database script on a different or same page as this database code? I want to have multiple forms going to different tables, and I want the database scripts kept separate. I just don't understand how the form data knows to be inserted into this database. If I duplicate kilo.js, rename it kilo2.js and use different field names, and attach it to the forms page following kilo.js, then kilo.js is ignored and the original form does not work.
im trying to get values from a database and assign them to icons which display on my page. The icons that are generated on the page are generated in javascript- and they do work. Howver i want icons to hold the names that are in the database/table.
how would i do this? would this be using a query result in asp to get the values from the database?? how would i do this? please provide code or guide.
then, how would i assign the database value with the icons???? ive heard javascript arrays??? how would i assign the values??
How would I make my page I have connect to a database using javascript dependent dropdowns? I have all the things I need to get the database working where it displays all the info in the database but I only want it to display based on what they select not all of it.

we had someone write this script for us a few years ago and we thought it was working fine until this week. It uses javascript to generate a dependant drop down menu eg. Depending on what the user chooses in the first drop down menu, (in this case a manual/book title) the second drop down displays the chapter/category headings that are available within that manual and then the users uploads a file that appears under that heading.
If our user adds a chapter/category heading with an apostrophe in it the script quits and the second drop down does not display the corresponding chapter headings. We are storing the info in a mysql database and use php and javascript to extract the data/build the drop down menus. Code:
I was wondering if someone could help me out with the following.I'm developing a webshop CMS in which you can create categories. By using jquery's ajax method I'm making a POST request to a PHP script which then handles all the data supplied to it. This works good and all except for the fact that after the query is being executed my HTML doesn't get updated, at least not as well as I want it to.I understand that the common way of working here is to update HTML in the success callback of the ajax method. But the thing is that every category is being displayed as a list item with an id attribute, this id corresponds to the id the category has in the database.If$.ajax tells me that everything went down smoothly and my query has been executed then there's still no way for me to know which id this new category has been given so that I can update the HTML accordingly.
What would be a "smart" way to tackle this? The first thing that comes to my mind is simply calling another script which figures out the last inserted id on the db but that would mean doing an ajax request in the callback of another ajax request? That doesn't sound right to me..
I want to verify that the data in my form in HTML is already exist in my database if this is true then the form must not be sent. I know this is done in javascript but I can not found the right solution. I would like an illustrative example.

I need to grab the last 5 rows from my database (2 fields per row) and list all 5 in a table but from within a .js file that I can externally link to.
I can manage the php / mysql and the output to a .php page but how can this be contained within a .js file?
I believe it is possible but after 2 days of searching on google I'm appealing for assistance.
I realise this could be done with a php include or iframe but that isn't an option and the only way available to import this data is via an external javascript script.
I have this PHP page that has the following functions...Insert Form into Table in MySQL DatabaseDelete Entry from Table in MySQL DatabaseA Link to a separate page where I Edit entries I have coded a PHP function for Delete. Looks like this:
// delete if provided if (isset($_GET['id'])) { // query to delete $query = "delete from student where STUDENT_ID =".$_GET['id']; //execute query if ($db->query($query)) {
Somewhere else I query the results and print them into a table. I added a column to this table with a Delete link for each row. Clicking on delete will execute the PHP function to delete.
The link looks like this: PHP Code:
echo "<td><a href=".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?id=".$row[0]."></a></td>";
Likewise the first names also have links when clicked bring the user to another page with a form to edit form data.
The link looks like this: PHP Code:
echo "<td><a href='editstudent.php?id=".$row[0]."'>".$row[1]."</a></td>";
From here however I need to change those links to Buttons. One for Delete and another for Edit and use JavaScript functions to make them work as they originally did. So this is what I've done...
<td><form name='myform1'><input type='button' name='edit' value='Edit'
<td><form name='myform2'><input type='button' name='delete' value='Delete'
Next I need to write functions...this is where I am lost. Usually I'd know what to do when referencing elements in forms, i'd do something like document.formname.inputname, but my problem is those links or should I call them actions are replaced by those new buttons.
Should I put them into a form, or make them hidden, and then name the element? Or should my function look something like this...all I really want to do is to call the function, and have the function just do the action of loading the link (don't know if that sounds clear). I've tried to do this but it does not work.
<script>
function Delete()
{
document.myform2.action="href='$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?id=".$row[0]'";
document.myform2.submit();
}
</script>
Can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong, and could you please point me in the right direction?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am making a webpage that can query a database table of employees
and return them in a html table. Currently I have submit buttons beside
each employee to open the page to edit their details. I have been using
php/HTML to do this, but wondered if it is safe to use javascript to
just click on the name of the employee to jump to the edit page. I've
been looking on the web for sometime about how to do this without any
luck. Any thoughts?
I'm working on some code and am running into brick walls. I'm trying
to write out Javascript with Javascript and I've read the clj Meta FAQ
and didn't see the answer, read many similar posts (with no luck
though), and searched through the IRT.ORG Faqs
(www.irt.org/script/script.htm).
The Javascript is designed to open an popup window and then inside that
window call another script which will resize that window. There may be
another way around this but the reason I tried this approach initially
was that I wanted to call the onload handler in the popup window to
resize the image only after the image had completely loaded. I've had
some code in the primary Javascript file (showimage.js) before that
works if the image has been cached but on the first load, it doesn't
resize properly which tells me it is probably because it is trying to
resize the window based on the image size but it isn't completely known
at that point. So I removed that code and tried placing the resizing
code in the second Javascript file (resizewindow.js). BTW I've tried
other code to open a popup image and automatically size it ie Q1443 at
irt.org but that doesn't do exactly what we need.
Even if there is another way to do this with one file, I still want to
figure out why this isn't working in case I run into it in the future.
I thought what I would need to do to use document.writeln to write
Javascript would be to escape any special characters and to break
apart the script tag ie
document.writeln('</SCRIPT>');
would become
document.writeln('</SCR' + 'IPT>');
I have a HTML page and 2 Javascript files. All files are in the same
directory and have permissions set correctly.
Here are the 3 files (keep in mind wordwrap has jacked up the
formatting):

I'm using IE6 on Win2k and when I click on the image to open the popup
