I Can Not Add Onclick Property With SetAttribute On IE.
Dec 10, 2006
I am using the following code to create an 'a' element with 'texto' to add the onclick property to an object:
var vinculo = xCreateElement('a');
var nodoTexto = document.createTextNode('texto');
xAppendChild(vinculo, nodoTexto);
xAppendChild(celda2, vinculo);
vinculo.setAttribute('onclick', 'buscarSolucion(1,1,1)');
'celda2' is a table cell. This works with FF but not with IE. I solved this using a comment from here for the 'name' attribute, like this:
...
vinculo = xCreateElement('<a onClick="' + onClick + '">');
...
But I would like to put it in a function to make it general for any element that has the 'onclick' property. Is there any other way to set the 'onclick' attribute & to be understand by IE & FF?
NOTE: I also found that I can not set 'colspan', I have to set colSpan. Also, I can not set 'class' I have to use the canonical method with 'object.className=...'

I want to implement:
<a href=123 onclick="javascript:return false">123</a>
in DOM,
I have:
var link = document.createElement('a');
link.setAttribute('href', 123);
link.setAttribute('onclick', 'function() { return false; }');
but it doesn't work. The reason I want a href and onclick = false is because I want to drag and drop the 123.

I am trying to setup a form with radio buttons. Each radio button has an OnClick event. When a radiobutton is clicked the current set of radio buttons will be replaced with a new set using document.createElement("input"). Each new radio button needs the same onclick event addedas in the initial set of radio buttons. I first tried:
element.setAttribute('onclick', MyFunction(value));
This, however, will somehow automatically trigger the onclick event! I searched on the internet and found this as the solution:
var new_onclick = function() { alert("this works!"); };
element.setAttribute('onclick', new_onclick);
This will give a "Object" is undefined error!

I'm writing a script that dynamically generates a menu table. Each TD has an onclick property which serves as a link. Everything works properly in other browsers since setAttribute onclick works. However, this function does not work in IE, and you're supposed to do this instead:
elementName.onClick = "blah";
Here's my code that works in all browsers but IE:
Code:
var truePath = "document.location.href=" + "'" + "/" + urls[i] + "'";
cell.setAttribute("onclick",truePath);
cell.onclick = truePath;
For IE, if I set the cell.onclick value to truePath, nothing happens when I click on the menu. However, it works fine in Firefox and Opera because of the setAttribute function. How I could get this to work in IE? My script is complete besides this part... I hate IE. Why can't they follow the rules?

this script updates an image on a page and resets the class name of a link. Works fine in Mozilla browser. However, the setAttribute method in the second function doesn't work in IE. Is there a known bug connected with this?
Any ideas?
var view;
//update image
function getView(view)
{
var source = view.getAttribute("href");
var imgsrc = document.getElementById("view");
imgsrc.setAttribute("src", source);
setClass(view);
}
// update class names of links
function setClass(view)
{
var arLinks = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
var ct = (arLinks.length-1);
for (var i=0; i<ct; i++)
{
arLinks[i].setAttribute("class", "inactive");
}
view.setAttribute("class", "active");
}

I am struggling to write an meta element in JS. The meta element in question
is the refresh element.
This is the code I am using
//----------------
function setMetaContent(metaTag, metaName, value) {
//----------------
var metas = document.getElementsByTagName('meta');
if (debug) alert('[setMetaContent] metaTag='+metaTag+' metaName=
'+metaName+' value '+value);
for (var i=0; i<metas.length; i++) {
if (metas[i].getAttribute(metaTag)==metaName)
break;
}
if (debug) alert('[setMetaContent] i='+i+' value '+value);
metas[i].setAttribute('content',value);
}
and I call it with:

I'm in the process of migrating a script to use DOM core methods but I've hit a roadblock in the aforementioned browser. The following code snippet illustrates what I'm basically trying to do, it really is incredibly basic!
var newimg = document.createElement('img');
newimg.setAttribute('id', 'placeholder');
newimg.setAttribute('src', 'images/large/courtyard.jpg');
I'm then positioning the element on the page using appendChild(). Everything works perfectly on Firefox 1, IE5+, Opera 8, Konqueror 3.3.1 (Linux) but not in Opera 7.54. I suspect the element is being created as associated styling on #placeholder is being applied (just some padding and borders) but the image itself is not being displayed. I assume therefore that the problems lies with setAttribute()?
This seems like the sort of problem that others would have encountered, but I haven't been able to find mention of it anywhere.

this works perfectly in firefox - but in internet explorer it just creates the first lable and the input field, although it creates the input field as a regular text field instead of for files. the caption label and text field aren't created at all. any ideas? Code:

I know there is a problem with IE (I wont bother inserting a witty comment here) on handling:
setAttribute('onclick','doStuff');
I have found
yourAnchor.onclick = function() {
// do what you want in here.
}
this works, but I the script I am working on is going through every DIV with a certain class and adding links to the div, I want the button to change something within the div where it is located so I need to pass the id of the parent div. I thought perhaps there was someway to find the id of the button pressed?

Just after upgrading from v1.4.3 to v1.4.4 I started receiving this javascript error on the console, but apart from the update, I didn't do any code modifications. If I follow the console link, it takes me to this point in the source:

with the line in red marked as the error source. What could it be causing the error?

It works OK in IE and Moz, but in Opera the change of the attribute's value works on once, first time. No error. That confuses me. Why works only once? Any ideas? Code:

I have multiple attributes (class, id and title) that is needed to insert into a div together. All I know how to use setAttribute for single attribute. So the question is there an "array" setAttribute method to insert all attributes together into an element OR is there a "after" or "before" setAttribute method I can use to insert an attribute after or before other attribute?

I've been working on this for about four hours (two today, two yesterday) and keep hitting the brick wall. I'm trying to create a function that will add an attribute to specified tags. As the title says, it works great in FF and not at all in IE7. Probably the first question you'll ask after you see my code is "why?" Well, I've got a form with over 100 form fields in it, and if I can avoid manually adding an attribute to all of them, I'll take the JS route.

Is the form below a valid method of changing the id of an XHTML element, specifically the one actually being referenced? It does not seem to work for me.
document.getElementById("Original_Name").setAttribute("id", "New_name");

I want to make it so that when I click on something, it changes what document.onclick does.
This is a simplified version of what I'm trying to do:
Code:
<div id="clickme" onclick="document.onclick = function(){ alert ('This should not be alerted on the first click'); }">Click here</div>
However, as you'll notice, the alert box shows up on the first click as well. The only way I have been able to get around this behaviour is to have the first onclick execute a timer that will then set the document.onclick after 1ms, however this seems very messy to me.

I'm sending arrays of results from my server in response to an xmlhttprequest like so:
array({key:value[,...]}[,...]);
I know I could use an associative or indexed array, but this is just how I wrote it as I'm using the prototype library and I'm in the habit. Anyway, I want to know if I can reference 'key'. If so, umm, how?

I'm using javascript to dynamically make controls show up or disappear on a form. For some reason, if I load a control (in this case a select control) into the Div it shows up perfectly. If I load text in there, it is fine too. However, if I programmatically try to go from the select control content and cover it with text afterwards, that won't work.
If I change the content from one string to another, it works as well. I just cannot remove a control I've put down and replace it with text or "" or whatever.

I just wrote this script which loops through all of the CSS properties for an element, and dynamically generates an HTML document using a for/in loop in a new window which is a table of all CSS properties and values for the element. Some may find it useful.

({}["toString"]) - function
alert("toString" in {}) - true
But I want to only find a property that is defined in the object - not in a prototype.
for(var prop in {}) { alert(prop); }; // toString not found.
It seems that operator 'in' is overloaded. 'in' during iteration: look in the property. 'in' in a boolean conditional: look in the object, then up the prototype chain.
I want a way to get only properties defined within the object itself, not it's prototype. Is there no simple way?

I would like to override the "disabled" property of a hidden field. When
disabled is set to "true", it would call a function to disable 2 other text
fields on the form. When disabled is set to "false", it would enable those
2 text fields. You should also be able to get the value of it as if it were
a property:
alert(my_hidden_field.disabled);
Is there any way to do this?
