I want to get the colour in HEX format using "thing.style.backgroundColor". Like "#FFFFFF" or whatever. IE gives this but FF gives it as "rgb(0,0,0)" format.
Is there a simple function/method of getting it as hex? (or a conversion function)
When I set the background colour of an element using tdRef.style.backgroundColor and then read it back, Firefox always gives rgb(r, g, b) regardless of whether I've used rgb(...) or #rrggbb to set it.
If I use tdRef.bgColor to set/read the value, I always get #rrggbb regardless of whether I've used rgb(...) or #rrggbb.
IE, on the other hand, when using style.backgroundColor reports back in whatever format was used (either rgb(...) or #rrggbb), but, like Firefox, always gives #rrggbb for the bgColor method.
My question is which method is most consistent across various browsers? I want to use style.backgroundColor (since some browsers don't support bgColor, I guess it's a legacy from the ver 4 browser days). If I decide to use rgb(...), is it consistently supported by other browsers or do some report in #rrggbb regardless? Code:
I have written a javascript version of tetris and at every 10th cleared line, I change the body background color more towards red. However, the page only seems to update parts of the background. It is only after min/maxing the window or otherwise forcing a redraw that the whole page background is actually updated to the correct color.
Any idea why this is and if/how this can be fixed?
This line works as expected, but it may be relevant to highlight. document.body.style.backgroundColor = "rgb(255," +GB+ "," +GB+ ")";
I would like to do things. 1) to change text in span to "" and 2) to change background of it.When I click on anchor, so "Saved!" with green backround will appear. And it would disappear after 1500 ms.
I'm trying to compare a <div> background color with another color. However, on FireBug, I noticed that my <div> doesn't have a background color code in it (I placed document.getElementById(o) on watch), even though I have already specified on my css. As a result, I'm comparing an empty string with another color code. Why is this so ?
Javascript:
function highlight(o) { var color1; color1 = document.getElementById(o).style.backgroundColor;[code].....
I need help with an IE8 problem. I want to give as many facts as possible.
Reference: [url]
I have already banned less than IE8 from my site but have the following problem with IE8 only (works on Mac and Win in these"allowed" browsers:Safari 5+, Chrome, FF 3.5+ and Opera 10+):
I use the backgroundPosition setter / getter extensively in this animation-extensive site.
But it breaks in IE8.
I did hack this as the only way I could get IE8 to work in a frame animation algorithm, noting that I have to test for browser and version (ugh) and then use this getter:
The following is an example that appears to work but seems unstable to me: (note that "accordionState"references an object within a data store attached to the "page" element):
There are many other cases where I have get or setbackgroundPosition,especially in the 'over' and out' functions where I use hoverIntent.
As a great fan and user of jQuery, I am puzzled that this will not work in IE8. Note thatbackgroundColor does not work either, although I do use UI to do these sorts of things and it seems to work in IE.
There is a live search on my web page but the box of available options which falls below the 'input' field has a transparent background color. How can it be changed to non-transparent?This line below makes the background white, but all the text on the page shines through, since the default is transparent.
i want to animate the backgroundcolor of the <body> when the page is loaded. It works - but sometimes when i switch from one page to another or if i just reload a page, it doesnt change.First i used this script:
I have created a very simple JavaScript code to display larger images of a thumbnail image on the main section of a website. It works fine in FF3 however in IE 7 is giving me an error code of Invalid argument on line 6 character 1. The funny thing is I have used this exact code in another site and it worked fine with IE 7.
This code works inside my coffee cup test browser but when i test in other browsers it doesnt work at all. none of the features work, drag and drop, highlight text on focus, and cursor change on mouse over.heres a simple code i put together.
<html> <head> <title>sample</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function handleMouseMove(oEvent) {
i have a item switcher i have made in php and java script but for some reason it works in google chrome but not in firefox. The switcher lets the user pick 1 item and make it there active item so they can do things with it.
I've inherited a page that enters data into a database, some of the fields are calculated and one uses today's date. In Firefox it all works fine but in IE it wont load the full page.
I have what I thought was a simple piece of code to count characters in a text area. The code works fine in FF and safari, but not in IE. Can someone explain if the problem is my code or something else.
I have some code, using all the DOM documentation in the developer.mozilla.org website. For some reason it's only working in the newest Firefox 2 versions, and not 1.5.0.x
I'm having a hard time finding any documentation of what's not supported.
Can you guys help me? Here are the functions I'm calling:
getRangeAt();
range.collapsed
document.createElement("div");
range.cloneContents();
element.appendChild(clone);
document.getElementById("divid");
do you think it's createElement div? Maybe I can't create a div element?
I have attached some files in a zip file. The idea of the code is to click on a textbox in the right frame and a copy is produced in the left frame which can then be dragged around. The code works fine in Firefox however does not work in IE. Can someone help me. The file to run is aspCreateForm.html . I am using a library called dom-drag for the dragging. a copy of this is in the attached zip file.
I was trying to get the code below to work in Firefox as I can see it was aimed at old IE and Nestscape. I does work on IE7 but not Firefox or Safari or Chrome.What I was trying to achieve was playing a sound on mouseOver which would stop on mouseOut. That's all. I tried other things before I bumped into the code bellow. This one was very much what I needed but I really need to get it work in browsers other than IE and Netscape.Bellow is the original code:
Code: <script LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!-- var aySound = new Array(); // Below: source for sound files to be preloaded[code]....
re-engineer the above but have a different solution to playing a sound when you hover over a button (solution that works on the major browsers out there),
I have created a new theme for Rapidweaver and integrated some neat JQuery animated sliding panels and frankly I was feeling pretty chuffed with my efforts as I am far from a JQuery expert.[URL]..In the side panel on the left, I have embedded a Titter feed widget, lifting the code direct from Twitter. In Safari, Chrome, Opera and even jolly old IE this works fine. But Firefox has a fit and displays a blank page - or just plain won't load. If I remove the Twitter widget the page loads perfectly happily. If I disable Javascript in FF, the page loads (but there is no animation etc) - so there is clearly a JQ/Javascript/Twitter script issue going on here that is causing FF to freak out...
Of course the simple solution is not to add the Twitter feed, but since this is exactly one of the uses I was planning for this sliding panel, that's a fat 'non' option. All the JQuery code I have used for the theme has 'no conflict' calls and I have even added specific calls for specific code - so stuff like:
