How To Execute A HREF With A JavaScript
Nov 3, 2005I'd like to call a JavaScript function which does something and loads at the
end a new page like <a href = "info.html">Next Page</a>
How can I do the above HTML command with a JavaScript?

I am writing a java application as a mozilla extension.
Because mozilla uses javascript for the frontend,
i need the javascript to call my external java application
and pass one parameter to it.
i have a really stupid problem with this line of code:
location.href = "showreport.php?id=" + sText;
sText is an id of a job that's running on the server.
Showreport.php retrieves the job and outputs the result in HTML. At the same
time job is removed from the server.
What happens is that some browsers (IE 6 mostly) like to GET the
showreport.php TWICE. Of course the second time there is no job any more and
the result returned is of zero length, which is very unpleasant ;-)
Headers sent by the browsers are (1st call):
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,
application/x-shockwave-flash, */*
Accept-Language: sl
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR
1.1.4322)
Host: veliswork
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cookie: PHPSESSID=tsghl22ijg4f6ba7a2mthggun6
Headers sent by the browsers are (2nd call):
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR
1.1.4322)
Host: veliswork
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cookie: PHPSESSID=tsghl22ijg4f6ba7a2mthggun6
Note the Accept tag.
What's even more interesting, the accept tag of IE 6.0 that does not request
twice is:
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,
application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel,
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, */*
Note the (still) absent application/pdf, which is the target content here.
Can somebody explain to me, why two calls and if that can be prevented. I
can reduce the problem by keeping the job for another minute or so, but
these jobs tend to be rather large (>10MB RAM usage) when large reports are
generated.
I am using some javascript code to change an image on an html page. I would
like the user to click on the image to bring them to another page. I need to
change an href to include an id value based on the image.
Here's the process:
1. select an image from a drop down list.
2. view the image on the same page.
3. click on the image to bring user to another page.
Here's my attempt at it:
function nextimg() {
txtString =
document.Topics.sel_val.options[document.Topics.sel_val.selectedIndex].value
document.image1.src = txtString.substring(txtString.lastIndexOf("&") + 1);
document.frmPic.href="details.asp?id=" & txtString;
}
I also think that txtString is not what I need. I believe it is a text
string (12345.jpg). So I will need to parse the string as well to get the
"12345".
For ease of future modifications on my page, I want to have a list of URLs stored in an Array, and I want to then use these URLs in an href tag. Something like this:
<SCRIPT>
menuURL[0]="page2.htm";
menuURL[1]="javascript://";
...
</SCRIPT>
<BODY>
<A HREF = menuURL[0] ........
How is something like this possible, as well as being fairly crossplatform, and intuitive? I've changed the syntax, and tried various other things to no avail.
I'm working on a project where we're using JavaScript to let users swap styles on a page. To accomplish this, I'm calling the script via href="javascript:swapcss()" on the switch styles button.
Some pages on the site have anchor links. On those pages, if someone swaps styles without hitting any of the anchor links, all is well. But if someone hits an anchor link and then hits the swap button (at this point the URL is pageid.html#anchor), the page just reloads to their anhor point without swapping styles.
Does anyone have a workaround handy? I've tried several alternatives I've found online (href="#" onClick="action"; href="javascript void(0)" ). Nothing works for this case yet. Code:
I was wondering if I could change the text of a link with a JavaScript. I want to set it up with a JavaScript function so that when A link is clicked on, the text of that link changes and it points to a different function.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure whether or not this is possible, but I want to have control over the Javascript function that is called when a target web page is opened (ie as the onload function in its <body> tag). In other words, the calling page will have several <a href ...> tags referencing the same page, each specifying a different onload function. Is it possible to effectively pass a parameter in this way? I have not been able to find any solution to this.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a generic javascript function to identify the form with in which a element exists, thus developer can avoid coding like document.forms[index].submit() - where they are sure, they want the form with in which this element exists is to be submitted. This way when forms are introduced at top level the code can remain unchanged, else every form introduce above in the DOM will result in increasing the index by one.
The code is given below. While doing so i am stuck with 2 problems
P1: In the code, you can see i am giving a explicit 'break' in the code. If i don't do so the code seems to be looping. Obviously i am missing some basic.
P2: I am able to pass 'this' for anchor element by name="xy"
<a href="#" name="xy"
in its onclick function by which, in the javascript function i move up the DOM.
While i am unable to do that on the anchor element given below since this function is now on the href attribute.
<a name="xy1" href="javascript:doFormSubmit(this);">Q test</a>
Hence the script fails. Code:
Can anyone assist me with what I am trying to do with the following
code (six different scenarios to try to make the functionality work
correctly)?
I want to always (and ONLY) display in the status bar 'Symantec
Corporation' whenever anyone mouses over (onMouseOver) my image or
link OR when one clicks while holding the left mouse down (onClick) on
the same image or link. Upon releasing the mouse (onMouseOut), the
status bar should be 'blank'. I need the link to open in a new window
via my function openWindow(URL) code.
What is happening in most of the six scenarios, is that when one
clicks the link, either the function doesn't engage, but rather the <a
href= takes effect instead OR that status bar shows
'javascript:openWindow('http://www.symantec.com/');' when one clicks
while holding the left mouse down (onClick) on the image or link.
Additionally, for only the link, I need the CSS/style to show 'red'
when one mouses over (onMouseOver) it and then change to 'blue' upon
releasing the mouse (onMouseOut).
How about integrating 'style="cursor:hand"' into the code or perhaps
setting some of the data via a <div> or <span> snippet? Code:
I'm using the following code (simplified version) to call a Json file, parse it and on each iteration, create a div with an ID of "tab". I'm using this with jQuery UI .tab() to create a listing with entries which have three tabs. Anyhow, the principle seems to work except that when I examine what's happening behind the scenes using Firefox console, I see that each href in the html code produced is causing the Json function to re-fire using the href as it's url target.

I'm currently writing:
<span onclick="window.open(...);">Klick Here</span>
but I want to use the <a href> for this, since it is defined in the
css script the way I want my link to open. Now, if I use a href, the
href will be executed as well. What can I du in order to make the href
not execute if javascript is enabled?
I need to read a registry entry(path of a file) from a .htm file. On
doing so it gives an alert "ActiveX maybe harmful..". To avoid this, I
wanted to try a hta file instead. All the files including the htm files
will be used locally & will have nothing to do with the internet.
I was hoping I could have the user just open an htm file, which
executes the hta ( this .hta will in return give the path read from the
registry).
I have the following function:

This is a recursive function. As stated above there is a line which does not work for the second time. What I mean is, it works perfect for the first time and after function calls itself, it doesn't work. Javascript does execute the line above it but just disregards that document.form1.buton.click(); line. I use Firebug for debugging and I checked it many times, when that expression needs to be executed for the second time, JavaScript just ignores it and immediately goes at the end of the function... I just can't figure out why JS does such a thing?
I got a javascript function to pull contents from a php page, let's call this page B to the actual page, let's call this page A.
As I know when a page gets loaded the javascript on that page won't execute, am I right?
Now I need the javascript code on that page B to get executed. Is that somehow possible?

When I use .load to load a html page into a div, the javascript that is meant to run on the page does not excecute. I've done a search on ways to append the script into the div, and found things like $.ajax and $.getScript, but it couldn't get it to work. I read something about eval()... but that confused me a fair bit.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe function is called from a child popup window which closes the child when called. The function works well however when the child window is closed the cursor on the parent window continues as if it is trying and load something (although nothing is being loaded). Do I need some sort of end function to close the function off after it is executed?

I have an application on my server that is called leaf.exe, that haves two arguments needed to run, they are: inputfile and outputfile, that will be like this example:
Code:
pnote.exe input.pnt output.txt
They are all on the same directory as my home page file(the executable and the input file). But I need that a JavaScript could run the application like that, then I want to know how could I do this.I'm using just Apache, I don't have any language for web installed on it. My goal is to do a site using just JavaScript, without the help of anyother language than it, HTML and CSS.

From inside a javascript function i need to execute a vbscript sub routine.
You might be thinking why i can't do it in javascript. well i probably can but i am better at VBscript and it would be a lot easier.
I've been looking all over for an explanation of this function declaration but cant find it. what it means to have a function with no name, just declared as this. When does it execute? How does it get called?
For reference, here's the function:

I'm not even sure if I'm using the correct terminology when I say "binding", but here's what I'm looking to do.
I want to set a function to execute when a select box changes. I know I can do it like this:
Code:
<select id="select-box" onchange="functionCall();">
I really like how jQuery makes it easy with something like this:
Code:
$('#select-box').change(function(){
...
});
What's the best way to do this with pure javascript? Basically I don't want to add the function call to my markup.
I need to execute a function after a link to a section within the same
document has been clicked and the navigation has occurred. When using
the onclick event handler the JS function is executed before the
navigation occurs. I can't tie it to a window.onload event since the
link only navigates within the already loaded document.
I'm not having any luck searching due to not knowing what keywords to
use. I looked at an explanation of bubbling vs capturing, but that
doesn't appear to be what I need.
