Internet Explorer Not Rendering Onchange In A Dynamic Form
Jan 14, 2011
I have created some Javascript to make a form application dynamic. My problem is that the code works in every browser except for internet explorer. I get no errors from Firebug and I have made sure that internet explorer has javascript enabled. I am completely in the dark as to why this would be happening. It works perfectly in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. Here is my entire code for the form, it is for a housing application for a college,
Code:
function runAll2 (processPart, areaType, spaceType, mealType) {
pp = document.getElementById('fld2416');
at = document.getElementById('fld2417');
st = document.getElementById('fld2418');
mt = document.getElementById('fld2481');
[code]....
This for is supposed to go live on Tuesday and I didnt realize that it wasnt working in IE until today. I am pretty good at HTML and CSS and know a bit about cross browser testing, I just didnt even think about it because this form is entirely ASP and Java, my bad.

I have a task to create tables dynamically, using the javascript DOM.
The current method uses a 1px x 1px IFRAME to loop through some data
generation stuff, and then call JS functions in the parent window to
generate the tables.
The basic idea is to add a table tag, with a thead and tbody, on the
main parent page, that has display:none set. This then becomes
display:block when there are rows to show. The rows themselves are
added directly to the visible tbody element using appendChild(). When
the results need to be refreshed, the tbody elements are removed, and
then added again.
This works well in most browsers, including Opera. However, Mac IE
always freezes when trying to generate the table, even for the first
time.
I have several different versions, and they all generate the same
issue. The tables I am creating are quite complex: multiple cells,
colspans, images, nested tables, roll over colours, styles etc. At
first, I believed it was an issue with creating images dynamically,
however it now seems that is not the case.
I have also tried creating the table and tbody tags using the DOM and
appending them to a div, but with no luck. I have also tried creating
the tables using a hidden object and then copying the innerHTML / nodes
across to the visible one. The various versions I have cover most
bases:
* using innerHTML to add content to the cells
* using the javascript DOM to create all elements and append them
* using a mixture of the both
If anybody has any feedback or suggestions then it would be really
appreciated, particularly related to the following:
* From your experience, is this realistically possible?
* Is the problem I'm experiencing related to the complexity or size
of the table I am trying to generate? If the table is simple text only,
with 2 or 3 columns and rows, then it does work.
* What is the best method to dynamically create tables and cell
content across browsers, and in Mac IE?
* Is the problem image related? Does anyone have experience of
creating images dynamically in tables in Mac IE? Do you use "new
image()" or createElement()? (using the small table sample, this was
possible using both methods, and also innerHTML on a cell).

The following code works fine in FF and Chrome for getting a radio selections value but not IE8.
$('input[name="search[gender]"]').change(function()
{
var check = $('input[name="search[gender]"]:checked').val();
Inputs are below:
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="1" class="v_middle" />Male
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="2" class="v_middle" />Female
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="3" class="v_middle" />Couple
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="4" class="v_middle" />tv
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="" checked="checked" class="v_middle" />All
The first time you click a radio button in IE8, no value is returned at all (tested with document.write of the 'check' value), with an error "'null' is null or not an object". The second (and rest of the times) you click any of the checkboxes the wrong value is returned, it returns the value of the currently checked button (which we checked a moment ago) rather than the one we have checked the second time. Does Internet Explorer have issues with this onchange function method? Or is something wrong with my code?

I'm working on a JavaScript that is enabling / disabling a select
element according to whether a checkbox is selected or not.
This works fine in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer (v 6.0.2900) it
appears wierd:
When I disable the selevt element in IE, it continues to appear as
enabled (falsely) until I try changing it.
When I click on it, updates itself as grey as to indicate that it is
disabled.This is wrong. I want it to appear as grey and disabled the moment it
is disabled via JS.Is this a bug in IE, or should I do this different way (code below).
Is there perhaps some way to "update" the select element so that it
appears as disabled once I disable it with JS? (without having to click
on it to probe if it is disabled or not) Code:

Say I have a simple page with a top and bottom frame. The top frame has a form (named "form1") with a single textbox entity in the form.How does the bottom form get the contents of that textbox using javascript? Specifically with Internet Explorer 8?I've tried every rendition that I know of.I have to admit that javascript isn't really my forte.I thought a line like:
Code:
value = top.frames[0].document.form1.mytextbox.value; would work, but it is not.

the code work fine in opera and mozilla and netscape, but it failed in
microsoft IE. message:
Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site
I check the google, found some info. But, none related to my problem.
the cause is due to creating new element while the page is loading.

So this works just fine in FF. In IE7 I am getting this error. I can see my content load in the background, when I hit ok it takes me to a page cannot be displayed page. If I comment out:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/moodalbox.js"></script>
It doesnt present that error, but that is obviously not an option. Here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />[CODE]......

I have added a booking form to a website with belongs to fastbooking.You can see a temporary website here. http:[url]....It works perfectly fine in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari but it does not load on Internet Explorer.On the other browsers the form loads todays date and the year is generated but on IE the date stays on 01-01 and no year is generated.I'm using wordpress as a cms.I think the code that is not loading is <body onLoad='start();'>But I'm not sure. The code of the year is
<select name='fromyear' class="input" onChange='update_departure();'>
<option value="0"></option>
</select> But since it's no just the year I assume its the onload code.
I tried to add the onload to the header function like this
<body onLoad='start();' <?php if(function_exists('body_class')) body_class(); ?>>
So now wordpress generates the following code when it loads the page
<body onLoad='start();' class="home page page-id-6 page-template page-template-default logged-in">
But sadly the date still does no load on Internet Explorer.

This is sort of a design/javascript question. It involves CSS
rendering in dynamic areas of a page using IE.
E 6 & 7
HI There, We've created some example static html pages (using CSS)
that look great in IE. We are now converting these into dynamic pages
that use javascript to dynamically update certain areas of the page.
After the conversion the dynamic areas of the page do not render the
CSS styles (the styles are not displaying correctly). This only
happens in IE. The styles display correctly for other browsers
(firefox).
I am using the javascript DOM to update the dynamic areas of the site.
For example when creating a <atag that needs attribute
class=over....I add the following code.
linktag = document.createElement("a");
linktag.setAttribute("href",pathName);
linktag.setAttribute("class","over");
it's the class=over that is not rendering when the page is updated.
Has anyone seen this?

This is what i need to do: I have a single <DIV> </DIV> for rendering dynamic HTML content. it already has a scrollbar in it when it overflows with text. I want to be able to prevent the user from selecting text on the DIV, and at the same time, when they click on the DIV and drag the mouse up or down , the HTML document will be scrolled proportionally to the dragging.

I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with IE6's
Msxml2.XMLHTTP object. I have two feed addresses in this stripped down
version of my code below. Both work fine in Firefox (using the
XMLHttpRequest object), but only the thinkgeek one works in IE. In the
processFeed function, it shows the problem - the first alert shows 0
for the wikihow feed in IE, though it can still display the
responseText. Any insight? Code:

How does one find the value of a drop down in Internet Explorer?
The form below works in Firefox and Safari. But not in Internet
Explorer. Can someone tell me how to code this so IE understands it?

document.myForm.Description.value=document.myForm. MakeDescription.value
}
</script>
<form name="myForm" id="myForm">
<SELECT name="MakeDescription" onChange="copyDescription();">
<OPTION selected value="">Choose</OPTION>
<OPTION>A</OPTION>
<OPTION>B</OPTION>
<OPTION>C</OPTION>
</SELECT>
<br /><br />
<input name="Description" id="Description" type="text" />

my site seems to be working perfectly on firefox but when I access it on internet explorer everything loads fine but there is a yellow marker on the status bar of IE saying there are errors on the page. I copied the source into dreamweaver to check for browser specefic bugs but the only bugs that came up were that in Netscape. So any idea why this is happening? The link to my site is in my profile.

I have a problem, and maybe someone knows the solution.
Context :
- Browser : IE 6.0
- Application server : Livewire Pro
- Client OS : Windows 98 SE
- Server OS : NT4
- I have a frameset, including several pages, but only one will be
used for the example.
--------
| a |
--------
| b |
--------
- a form on the main page (a.html i.e.)
- a data is manually typed, then I submit the form => the action will
redirect to a new page (c.html)
- on this new page, I do a history.go(-1), so I'm back on the a.html
page, and the data is still there (it's ok)
- cache parameters : "check on every page visited"
Problem :
- From the main page, if a popup gives the data to the form, so after
the submit and the history.go(-1), the form contains NO data !!!
So, the data is lost when the data input is not made by hand.
I have no troubles with Netscape/Mozilla, but only with IE.
Maybe someone would have an idea ?

I have a radiobutton group in HTML in a form:
Sex: <input type="radio" name="Sex" value="male">Male
<input type="radio" name="Sex" value="female">Female
<input type="radio" name="Sex" value="unknown">Unknown<br>
When I call document.forms[0].elements['Sex'].type I don't get "radio" but
"undefined" instead.
For all other kinds ("text", "textarea", ... etc) of input fields the type
is returning a correct string.
It only seems to happen with Internet Explorer (using version 6).
What am I doing wrong?

I've developed a calendar program in javascript, and up until now I've
done most of my testing using Mozilla and Firefox. Everything works
fine, but when I try to use Internet Explorer my response time is
sometimes 50 times slower than using Mozilla.
I know I haven't given you much to go by, but I'm not looking for an
answer so much as an approach to debugging the problem. For example,
does anyone here know of a good web site which deals with
browser-specific javascript performance issues?

I am wondering if there is any way to write a VBScript macro for IE,
just like the action that we can do in MS Excel (Tools -> Macro ->
Visual Basic Editor).
Also, I believe we can automate actions to IE pages using VBScript,
like when you right click a web page and choose "Export to Microsoft
Excel". But I have no idea how to get it.

I have a link which when clicked either fades up a full screen overlay and a popup box ontop or fades them both down. This works perfect in every browser except IE7 and IE8. The popup box fades in and out OK but the overlay just appears or disappears with no fading (which is bizarre!)
