How To Set Text In A Cell

Jul 23, 2005

My web page has thumbnail pictures, and when the user clicks on a
thumbnail, I change the image source of a full-size image elsewhere on
the page. I'd also like to change the caption of the full-size image,
but I'm not sure how to set the value of the text. I've tried creating
a form with a single input field, and I can set the value of that
field, but the field has a sunken style that I can't get rid of, and
I'd like to find a different way of displaying the text.

Is there an easier way to change the value of a text field?

Highlighting Text Within A Specific Cell

Sep 7, 2006

I'm currently working on a project which is essentially a clickable
world map. I have successfully mapped the image and using a
OnMouseOver = "Continent()" OnMouseOut = "World()" command in each
mapping line ie. <area shape="poly" onmouseover="NA()"
onmouseout="World()" coords="(lotsonumbers)".

In my continent functions I change the image using something like:
function Africa()
{document.images[35].src="/_View/images/maps/worldmaps/world.africa.jpg";
return true;}

This gives me the "highlighting" effect I was looking for when people
mouse over the continent.

However! my problem now is that I need to find a way to essentially
link that with a cell within the same table as the mapped image. There
is a list of the continents in the column next to the map (the map has
all the rows merged in that column). I need it so that if I run the
mouse over the continent or that cell both of them highlight at the
same time. I see the best way of doing this as having both call the
World or Continent function. However I have been unable to find any
way of setting a specific cell's background or text from within a
function.

How To Dynamically Change Text In A Table's TD Cell?

Jul 23, 2005

Can someone tell me how to do this if it is possible?

I have a table based web site, and I would like to dynamically change the
text that is shown in a particular cell of a table. I give the cell the
unique ID label1 so I can get a hold of it, and I can get a javascript to
display the data in an alert box (this is just to see if I can access the
text) with:

mycel = document.getElementById('label1');
myceltext = mycel.childNodes.item(0);
currenttext = myceltext.data;
alert(currenttext);

But how do I exchange the text in this cell for something else?

Scroll/Marquee Text In Table Cell?

Feb 24, 2009

I have a table where one of the cells has a background image of a solid color.

Code:

<td background="./images/background.jpg">

Is there a way in JS to create a text string that can act like a status bar marquee would and scroll text into or across that table cell?

When Googled, I see many examples of marquee's and examined one example of creating a text scrolling in an <input> box, but it's not what I need.

I'm not to handy with JS, so I don't know if it's possible or not or if maybe php can create something like this if JS can't?

Change Color Of Text In A Table Cell

Oct 10, 2011

I have a php script that displays database data in a web table. I also have a javascript code which is supposed to compare the value entered in a web form to that hard coded in the script and change the color to green if its below, amber if its equal and red if its greater than.

Below is my javascript code:

As you can see from my javascript, i am getting the elements by id (getElementById("color")). Currently, only the first <td> with id='color' is changing when the value is entered. How do I make the text in other table cells with id='color' change color when the comparison value is entered?

Onkeyup - Using A Text Field To Insert Images Into A Table Cell

Aug 30, 2010

I'm using a text field to insert images into a table cell. I have 360 images. the text field uses the onkeyup to change the image. when I type the number 1, the appropriate image appears. But when I type another number, giving me say 17 nothing happens.

The function uses parseInt to access the value int the text field. I'm fairly sure the onkeyup function is not retricted the the first character typed. Why would the onkeyup not execute after the second character is typed?

Cannot Move Input Focus To A Cell After Re-Defining The Cell

Sep 15, 2011

I have a javascript program that uses a HTML table as an Excel-like grid. The user can use arrow keys to navigation the grid. When the user selects a cell and then hits <Enter> key, the program turns the cell from read-only to editable (an input box), and select all the text in the input box. When the user hits <Esc>, the program cancels the changes that the user has made and turns the cell back to read-only. So far so good. The problem is that as soon as the user hits <Esc> key and turns the cell back to read-only, I find that I cannot move the input focus back to the cell any more. Actually I cannot move the input focus back to _any_ cell in the table. When this happens, the user cannot use arrow keys to navigate the grid any more (like the grid has lost the input focus). The user needs to use the mouse to click at a cell in the table to get things working again.

The user can get around with this problem by un-selecting the text from the input-box before hitting <Esc>. But this is not something that I expect the user to remember to do. I need a way to fix this problem. I tried the logical thing and programmatically un-select the text before turning the cell back to read-only. But this actually made thing worse - this causes the workaround to stop working.

The only browsers that I have tested this program is IE6 and IE8. I have not tested this in any other browser.

Attached is a simplified version of the program that can show this problem in action. This simplified program first adds an empty table on the web page, and then creates an instance of the CEstGrid class that takes care of the grid. CEstGrid will add two rows of test data into the table with two columns in each row. The user should use a mouse to click at one of the cell, and the cell should be highlighted. The user uses arrow keys to navigate the table. When he reaches the end of the table, he will wrap around to the other side of the table. Let say the user reaches the cell in row-1 column-2, he hits <Enter> to change the cell to editable. He will find the text in that cell to be highlighted. When he hits <Esc> at this moment, he will find that he cannot use the arrow keys to navigate the table any more, and this is the problem. Please rename the test program from .TXT to .HTML to test it.

Change Border Of Some Cell By OnMouseOver Different Cell?

Apr 11, 2010

imagine table with 15 rows and 3 columns. If I move mouse over any cell I want some other specific cells to change their borders like with pseudo-class :

example

<style>
.boryellow {border: 3px solid yellow}
.borblue {border: 3px solid black}
</style>

this will work, a cell can change itself

<td name="third" class="boryellow" onmouseover="this.className='borblue'" onmouseout="this.className='boryellow'">cell</td>
even when dealing with empty images - click on link will change border of different element - imgs, but not span or td ...
<a href="#" onclick="document.all.xxx.className='borblue'; document.all['name'].className='borblue';

[code].....

Replacing any element link by "third" or "spanx" will cause stuck ant not executing other actions.

Can't Get Cell To Shrink To Zero

Jul 23, 2005

I have a simple HTML table that I want to use as a progress bar - by
changing the width of the two TD elements with javascript, you show
progress. The problem is that when I change the width to 100 and 0
resp., you still see a sliver of white for the right cell... any way
to do this, it's drivin me nuts! I tried also changing the back color
of the right cell to blue when it hits 100, but it only works in
Mozilla/Firefox, not IE....

DOM Row/cell With InnerHTML

Jul 23, 2005

I've got this code that creates a new new row and cell. I then put some
text into the cell with innerHTML - works beautifully with Firefox but
fails with IE. I guess IE doesn't support this way of doing it, but is
there another way of doing it with DOM?

newr = document.createElement('tr');

stbl.appendChild(newr);
newc = document.createElement('td');

newr.appendChild(newc);
newr.cells[0].innerHTML = (nr+1)+". "+sa[ti][nr + 1]+"<br><hr>";
(works in firefox but fails in IE 6+ too...)

Get A Cell From A Selected Row

Feb 18, 2010

I have a table and i want that when I select a row (onclick event) two functions to be called.

This is the code (it is PHP generated):

The first onclick function (named colorChange) works, but the later does not.

I don't know why is that. I used this configuration before and it worked.

So.. the js function that does not work is this (it shows me no alert):

I repeat that the first function (colorChange) works, and it is put in the same place (file) as the above one.

SSI Nav Bar But Page Name Cell A Different Colour?

Jul 20, 2005

My website formatting knowledge is mostly HTML; I know hardly any
Javascript. Recently I created a site with a nav bar in table format across
the top of the page, and I made the background colour of the cell with the
name of the page that the reader was on a different shade, like this:

Home | This | That | Other | Etc.

If you were on "Other" page, for example, the background colour of the
"Other" cell was a different shade from the others. I created this by
altering the code on each page.

This site was hosted with a web host that has SSI, and the nav bar became
the same file for every page, so we lost this minor navigation aid. Someone
mentioned that the same effect (a different colour or shade for the cell
with the page name) could be achieved with Javascript, but since I don't
know Javascript and we'd run out of time, we didn't do it.

Now I'd like to have this different colour for the page name cell at another
site using SSI for the nav bar. Is this possible? If so, how? To make it
even more fun, some of the page names are entry points to another section of
the site. If I can make "Other" a different colour, for example, I'd also
like to make pages in the "Other" folder have this same feature so that
readers know that they're in the "Other" section of the site. Or is this too
much?
