I'm working on a page that uses javascript very much. My problem is now
that i cannot redirect to another page in IE with window.location =<URL>;
This command gets executed (proofed with alert messages) but nothing
happens. FF acts like expected but i cant get it work in IE. What can be
the problem here?
Danged if I can find the thread, but I swear I saw a $.url() reference in here a day or two ago. It was beingutilized for parsing out the window.location or window.location.search parameters. I made a mental note because that was something I would be needing to do.
Now I can't find it, either because the search isn't finding it or I was dreaming about this function existing.
I rummaged about the API docs and didn't find it there either. Is it something provided by one of the plugins and not a function native to jQuery?
Prevents the page reload after clicking another anchor on the redirected page.
A description of the problem: User clicks a link to view the newest post of a topic, such as
Code:
[URL]
This link redirects automatically to the topic with an anchor to the latest post entry on the page:
Code:
[URL]
This is where problems start. On this page clicking any link which is an anchor causes the page to reload and then jump to the anchor.
My modification enables posting replies to topics via Ajax, and to support back/forward button functionality in browsers I must change the anchor in the script. As soon as it is changed the browser reloads the page defeating the purpose of Ajax!
So what can be done about that anchor? I'm thinking about passing it as another variable in the query string and then manually via JavaScript onLoad() to extract the anchor from the URL and then jump to it after the page has loaded. Would this work?
I have a popup window that the user opens, and then after say 10 seconds I want it to redirect the parent window that opened the popup to another page.
As im sure you know, the usual way of redirecting after a set time is:
I'm using window.showModalDialog but having an issue trying to set the parent window(main browser). I open modal window A which is then opens modal window B, top of modal window B onload I do window.opener.close()". My issue now is when i'm finished with B I set parent window(main browser) to a new url with window.opener.location. So my problem is modal window A the parent has been closed so window.opener.location will not work.
function subCat(){ var d = document.all; var i = d.sid.value; if(i != "-1"){ window.location = "subcat.php?sid="+i; } }
That is called on the following drop down menu: <select name="sid" class="dropBox" id="sid" onChange="javascript:subCat()"> <option value="-1">Please Select</option> <option value="1">category 1</option> <option value="2">category 2</option> <option value="3">category 3</option> <option value="4">category 4</option> </select>
It works fine in IE but not in Mozilla Firefox, what do i need to chnage to make it work correctly?
The following JS script works fine in FF and IE7. It fails though in IE6, which happens to be my target audience. Whats failing is.. the window.location is not calling.
function confirmation(text,url_link) { var answer = confirm(text) if (answer){ window.location = url_link; }
I am doing my final year project. I am trying to access webpages via javascript. while i am doing this i open a new window to display webpages.And i have to get the url from child window while i am navigating the webpages. I have tried to get the url from child window after the new window is opened. But i get the null value as a result.[code]
I have a inventory control program written and I use window.opener.location='filename.html' window.close()
It works fine in ie6 on windows 98 and XP home but sometimes for users with XP professional it crashes ie6 (wants to send a error reports to microsoft and the closes)
I was wondering if it could be that professionals "mutil" processing causing a problem by 1 process excuting before the other?
This may sound dumb but this is what I want and I am not sure how to frame it better. I see window.location.replace() creating problem with my "Back" browser button. This is because, location.replace() actually replaces the url in the history with the one currently given. So if I click on "Back" button after going to an url using window.location.replace, it goes to the previous-1 page.
Is there any measure to avoid this? Or do we have an alternative function that does the same action without replacing history?
I'm popping a window to a page with a different dns than the parent, and i want the opener's location reloaded when this window is closed.
With Mozilla it seems that all the opener's methods and properties are protected because the dns are different. A security exception (permission denied) is thrown every time i try to exec an "opener.location.reload()" from the pop up window.
An alternative would be catching the window closing from the opener, but i don't know how this could be done.
as i know href is a property of location but location.href(url) works fine with IE 6. i couldn't figure out how its possible? is it a kind of browser syntax-tolerance helping it to work? how the heck is this working?
problem I'm having is that the parent url has a # sign in it, like: http://localhost/mysite/me.html#01
i need the #01 to stay in the url after the refresh, anyway to do this? i tried using escape(window.opener.location.href) but that didn't work, as it escaped everything including the :// in http://
i also tried: window.opener.location.href(window.opener.location .protocol + "//" + window.opener.location.hostname + window.opener.location.pathname);
problem with that was i lost the #01 in the url, pathname didn't include it.
i am trying to redirect user from onchange event to another location in the page. its work fine in IE but not in firefox why window.location doesn't work in FF ?
I'm currently paying for a web service on a hosted platform. Basically, I'm unable to edit any raw content, however I am able to do things like add JS/HTML to the header or footer of a page, which will in turn be displayed on every page of this platform. My dilemma is, I only want content being showed on a single page of the platform. Specifically, I want a window.alert being displayed on the "/signup" page, but all I have to work with is JS in a global footer.Is there some way I can use window.location to achieve this?
I am trying to use the window.opener.location code from a link on my popup window to change the webpage in the window that opened my popup. It works on ie/firefox, but doesnt work on safari.
Now i've tried the link with both <a href="#" changepage(35);"> and <a href="javascript:changepage(32);"> but safari doesnt want to touch the opener page. Do you know of any workaround/hack to get this to work? If not, is there a way to check to see if the user has safari and change the code to opening the page in a new window?
I am a new Javascript user and have a question i cant seem to get my teacher to explain to me (darn online classes). My problem is i am being instructed to [URL].. to the body of my file to create a link to another file. The instructions say i cant add an html a tag for the link and I'm not really sure how to make this work without it. Here is what I have so far....(note there are a bunch of other things i need to accomplish in this and i think i probably just dont have things in the right order and I'm not sure where the onclick tag needs to sit within the javascript sections)..
