My background is C++ and C#. Using basic selectors and filters in jQuery is not a problem for me. My problem is finding the right jQuery code to capture a live html page and assign an object which contains all the html text I just captured... then I can use the object to apply basic selector and filter functions to create another page.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMany ajax and javascript functions change the innerHTML of elements in the source, writing and rewriting things in the source
You can run any javascript function or action you want that would change the source, but when you view it, it will always show the original source before a JS function changed it
Is there a way to view the changed source after each time a JS functoin changes it??
for example:
<span id="whatever">This is the original source code</span>
then you may run this piece of JS:
whatever.innerHTML= 'Changed source code!'
but when you right click and press 'view source"
you will always get this:
<span id="whatever">This is the original source code</span>
I want to get the changed source code, maybe its possible to write the changed source code to another file, or use some kind of HTTP prog to read the changes on an html page?
Probably covering well trodden ground here but so far I haven't found any reliable solution and "it can't be done" seems crazy. Here goes:I have some Flash and non-flash banners that are to be embedded into my page - all managed by a simple CMS. The Flash movies are not created by me as they are for 3rd Party advertisors, and I do not want to be doing any Flash programming myself as it's not my thing and I don't have the resource to do it. As with the JPEG/GIF files - I just want to be given the file and then embed it.
What I want to do is produce some MI based upon when the various banners are clicked - things like how many clicks and who clicked them (users are logged into the web site so I can track them). Simple enough for JPEG/GIF banners capturing the onclick event but for Flash it seems that the Flash movie prevents (or overrides) the onclick event from registering.This seems crazy! I want my application logic (in this case logging user activity) to be independant of the media content - especially as I am not in control of the media content.Googling and experimentation shows that for IE I can seemingly use "onfocus" but this is not very satisfactory and of course I need a cross browser solution.This seems like such a simple concept that at the time of specifying the requirements it didn't occur to me that this might not be possible.... but it seems that I may be wrong!
I have successfully converted my .tiff file to a text file. This was a major step. My issue now that i am facing is "capturing" pertinent data. I am attempting to do this by running a JavaScript to create an HTML file from the .txt file. I am having trouble figuring out how I am going to pass the argument of a .txt file and embedding it into the HTML page.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo, I read about the new method of passing an object map containing element properties when creating a new jQuery object (as discussed at the bottom of this article). The article says that it supports ALL events, but only gives examples of simple events that require no parameters. I'm trying to implement a live event using the following and can't get it to work:
var link = $('<a />', {
text: config.appendTextMore,
href: "#",

First, with AJAX I will get a remote web page into a string. Thus, a
string will contain HTML tags and such. I will need to extract text
from one <span> for which I know the ID the inner text.
Is it possible to access in this way "string variable".getElementByID()
somehow?
PS: Just thinking of a proper/efficient way to extract the information
from such a string. I am open to other ideas. I could load that page in
IFRAME and get my access to DOM that way, yet probably it is not an
eligant solution.
I had a problem with my previous approach in javascript so i thought of another strategy, to work with java. How can i pass the DOM of the current web page that is the HTML page to java, so that i can parse the DOM and i need to extract the internal contents of the script tags in the page and evaluate them apart from running in the webpage.
How can i pass the dom object to java and evaluate the scripts contents from java.
I am currently trying to figure out some event stuff with Javascript. I have the page capturing all onkeypress events by calling my function keyPress, and passing the event as an argument.
The key presses get passed to a text field that I have on the page (even if it's out of focus at the time of the key press) by using textfield.focus() within my keyPress function. This seems to pass the event along to the text field so that it registers the stroke and handles it as if the field was in focus at the time of the key press.
My problem lies in that I need to then grab the new value of the text field for use with another part of the script. It seems though that with the way I'm setting focus, it'll execute the rest of my keyPress function (with the outdated text field value) before the text field handles the event.
Is there a way to yield the event to this text field first?
Sorry, this was a long post, but I guess here's a short recap: If I handle key presses via the body of the page, so that regardless of the text field's current state of focus it updates the text field accordingly, is there a way to have that happen first before the rest of my function that needs to use the new value of the text field?

It works flawlessly on my dev page: http:[url].....But I am having issues with is on my live page: http:[url].....My first thought is that it could be a labeling issue (ie: I forgot to remove "/dev" when moving the HTML over to live) but after reviewing for an hour, I don't believe this is the issue.
Is there a trick (with javascript or something) that can change a hidden value on a page directly from the browser without using "Firebug" software? for example: <input type="hidden" name="something" value="something_else"> I need to change "something_else" to "something_else_2"

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm building a webpage using javascript and iframes. Basically I have an iframe in the middle of the index.html page that links to another html page (let's call it iframe.html). My question is, is it possible to call a javascript function from iframe.html to control an object on index.html? If so, how do I do this? I'd like to be able to assign an image in iframe.html with the hyperlink of href="javascript:function()", where the function effects the CSS of a div on index.html.

In one of the frames I have an html page that contains an image, and when you mouse over the image it is supposed to fade up a little description box. Naturally when you move the mouse away, the box disappears. I have a javascript function that fades the image up and down, and it's activated via an onmouseover event that is attached to a div that contains no content, but lays over the image to define the triggering area.

I am relatively new to Java and am going to be taking a class on it next fall. For now though, I am trying to code for a client I am currently working with and am hopelessly lost. The client I am working with has an ecommerce site with Network Solutions which uses aspx. It allows you to code html and link to css, java (pretty much anything except php). The problem I am having is that they currently have their product descriptions coded in div tags:
<div id='alternatebg'>
<div id='detailsgreybox'><div id='alternatename'><p>Alternate Name</p></div></div>
<div id='pd2'><p>Not Available</p></div>
</div>
<div id='usebg'>
<div id='detailsgreybox'><div id='use'><p>Use</p></div></div>
[Code]....
What they want to happen is for the sections that have 'Not Available' as the answer to not show up on the live page. I have tried to use <ns:if condition="..."> but do not know how to call for it to see if the div says 'Not Available'.
could someone please point me in the right direction for creating an AJAX page that displays "live" data from a mysql database? I need the page to update its self every time data changes in a mysql table.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using the JQuery Template plug-in found here : [URL]..When I run my code as such:

$('body', $('#myiframe').contents()).html(myNewHtml);

anyone else get the outerHTML of a html object? I can't seem to get it anymore. document.getElementById('log').outerHTML returns undefined.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a for loop that generates a .append line for each item in an array. This loop is writing out a deli order, where each item on the array is an item on the order. One of the things in the appended line is a delete button that lets the user delete that particular item in the array.
The .append looks like this:
The thing I'm looking for some explanation on is the dlt(' + i + '). dlt() is the delete function and it needs to receive the number of the item on the order array that this line is being generated for. If I code dlt(i) the function is passed the value of i at the time the delete button is clicked, which is after the entire order has been displayed and so is one plus the number of the last item on the array. Someone from this forum suggested the dlt(' + i + ') form to capture the value of i at the time the line was being generated, but I don't really understand why this works.
Could someone who does understand this perhaps write a few lines about why this captures the i that I want? I certainly wouldn't have thought to write this on my own.
