Is it possible to download the jQuery API documentation to my local hard-drive? If so, I don't need to connect the Internet every time when I want to refer the API docs.
View 2 RepliesIs there a way to scan files on a local hard drive using Javascript? I'm trying to create a GUI for a program using html and js. As such the html files will only be accessed from the local machine using Firefox. I would like to avoid using server-side scripts, as I want to use this on a computer without server software installed. My overall objective is I want the javascript to scan all files (data plots I've made) in a directory on the local machine. The JS would create a list of possible dates based on which files were found, the user would then select the date which would then display the corresponding plot.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI think I know the answer to this but I want to ask anyway. There are scores of pages on a particular website that I need to download so I can process them. They would all come down as XML files. I wrote a desktop app a while ago to do this but I was hoping to move this functionality to my website. This is an example of one of the pages I would download/copy:[URL]... A related question is... after I get all of these pages into a folder on my machine... I will need to point JQuery to the folder where they were copied and process each one. Does JQuery have a built in way to open a folder and capture all the files inside so they can be processed? I couldn't find anything like that.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an html file I've built with embedded Javascript (using ActiveX) that successfully reads a file on my local hard drive when I run the html file through my web browser (IE) locally. However, when I copy the html page up to a webserver and access it through the internet, it doesn't appear to be reading the local file. I'm assuming this can't be done because of security reasons? Am I correct in that? Is there any way using Javascript/ ActiveX that you can get a webpage on the internet to access a file on the visitor's local drive?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to upload/read an xml from a local drive of any platform (linux, windows, mac) and synchronize it with my web server, which will then update my DB. Local xml file path is predefined and stored in my DB. This is part 1.Part 2, I will have to update the sync(ed) xml and replace the file on my local drive.Part 1 and part 2 will execute in sequence when the user click on a "Sync" button after logged in.Here is what I plan to use, PHP, MySQL, Javascript.What I know so far.1. Due to security reasons we cannot dynamically update the value of the input file type. So setting the known file location is not possible.I will like to know if there is anyway we can upload/read & overwrite a xml file without any middleware like adobe air that needs to be pre-installed to any of the platform to achieve what I plan to do?

I'm have some images on a site that I want a user to download to their sdcard.i have urls for the images and i have a webpage with a button.when the user clicks the button, i want it to download those images to an sdcard in their pc (hopefully they can select where using a windows open file type box).i think this may be quite difficult due to security with browsers and Iv looked into activex object (but cant get it to save to my filesystem).if this cant be done, perhaps i could do it on the server-side using php and have the user use filezilla to download the images. obviously this is not a very elagant solutio
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a web page (offline) that accesses the user's CD drive to play an audio file on a CD. It uses this routine:
<OBJECT id=player1 height=64 width=160 classid=CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6>OBJECT>
</font><script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("player1").uiMode="full";
document.getElementById("player1").settings.autoStart=false;
document.getElementById("player1").settings.volume=50;
player1.URL=src="file:///"+YouWrote+":/Track01.cda";
</script>
That variable "YouWrote" (the CD Drive letter) is set by a cookie on the page - defaults to "D", but the user can change this, refresh the page, and access the audio in the correctly referenced drive.
Works well - if the page is resident in memory and refreshed if necessary.
My problem is if I put this page on a CD - that is, I want the page to load up from the CD drive - and there's only one drive - it doesn't work.
I can't seem to get the user to be able to choose the drive letter by setting the cookie (or even go with the default), then refresh the page, switch the CD with the Audio CD, and get Windows Media Player to find and play the Track01.cda file.
It chokes because the player says it can't play files with this extension. But it is obviously still thinking about the html file it loaded.
How do I disconnect the knowledge of the loadup CD in Windows Media Player's mind (assuming anything Windows has a mind)? Is there some obvious logical procedure I should follow and/or for the js script?
I am trying to create a way for my users to download some code dynamically from my web page via a file download. Below is the code that i have written so far. It seems to be dying on the iframe but i'm not sure why.
Here is my jquery trigger which is inside my onreadystate function.
$('#export_txt').click(function(e){
alert(LPAjax.ajaxurl + "/download.php");
$.generateFile({
action: "download_txt",
filename: "exportme.txt",
[Code]...
I need to have a submit input button automatically start a download when clicked, but also redirect to an additional "information" page. Since I'm not sure if this can simply be solved with HTML or must use some Javascript.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a page /download.php.basically on entry this page displays a browser download dialog box for a file.I was wondering if there is a way to use .load() to get the same download dialog box on another page.I tried the code below but it does not work/ what jquery function I can use to get this working
$('body').load('/download.php');
I could not find each() in jQuery's documentation. Could it be included there, as I was browsing all the features to find out what exactly is the collection of elements returned by the many JQuery functions and how to be able to access and manage each of them separately, but could not find a page for "each" anywhere (which I found on some tutorial later).

Is there a problem with jquery.com?
Suppose I have this syntax:
I want tellme() to handle the value of href of the clicked link.
What syntax do I put in tellme()?
I got this far:
Here is question: How would I get this info from the API documentation?
Here are the descriptions for the Ajax methods:
load -- Loads HTML from a remote file ...
ajax -- Load a remote page ...
get -- Load a remote page...
getScript -- Load and execute a local javascript file...
post -- Load a remote page...
So, if we want arbitrary HTML we have to use "load", but if we want a whole "page" (where is that defined?) we have to use "ajax", "get" or "post"? The "execute script" function (called getScript for some reason) only works with local "files"? I believe it will work with any URI (local or remote) returning JavaScript (assuming same origin policy of course), and whether it came from a file isn't known to the caller. These functions should describe the type of HTTP request they make, and skip references to "pages" and "files".
there seems to be a ton of spam links in the jQuery documentation wiki. Have a look at this one for example.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get started using JQuery, but I find I can't even get to lesson #1. When I go to jquery.com and click to download the latest version (or any version) it doesn't "download" anything. It opens the file as a webpage in my browser and I see all the JQuery in one big string. Why won't the file just download? Is it the browser I am using? Is it my Mac?
