For a calendar project implemented with pure HTML/CSS/JS I need to access local data files (.ICS). These ICS/iCal data has to be accessed also by other applications (eg. sync, backup, etc).Can anyone point to a possible solution to use HTML5 compatible calls (or jQ plugin) AND how to access the localStorage files also from the other apps.

I am trying to upload multiple files using file input. And I am able to do that using "multiple" attribute of input type file. I can not use file API as I am using python on server side. So after user has selected the files, I want to access those file names in file input to let user cancel any file before uploading and upload rest of the files. The "value" attribute of input file does not work as it doesn't let me write.
View 5 Replies View RelatedCould anyone link me to an example of how to read a text file into a javascript variable using mootools or jquery(or explain it yourself)? Mootools would be preferred because my jquery framework is a little archaic.
I can't find a very comprehensive example only directions for how to make requests and the examples don't explain how to use the input. Oh and I'll be using this script on my website and the text file will be located on the same server.
I've been working in VBA for quite some time, and would like to make some of my scripts available through a browser. One script will open a text file, parse it, and then commit the parsed results into an object. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this task in js...
In VBA, the code would be something like:

The portable versions of Firefox, Thunderbird and Sunbird for use with
USB drives seems like a great idea and one I could make a helluva lot of
use of at work - but before I drive down that particular road, does
anyone know how good / bad / indifferent the implementation of
Javascript is on these apps? Code:
I'm poking at a small "single page application" (SPA), ala TiddlyWiki,
to act as kind of a local, single-user version of Twitter (no real
application, except to familiarize myself with JavaScript). Right now
I'm using a hidden field to hold JSON, which is currently my flat-file
database of posts.
Is there a better way to store JSON data in a SPA other than hidden
fields? I'm Googling now to allay or confirm my concerns, but I'm
worried that there may be some upper limit to how much data you can cram
in the value of one.
I'm using JSON mostly because (a) I really prefer it to XML in
JavaScript applications, (b) it seems (key word, "seems") smart to
separate my post data from posts (so I can show n-number of posts at a
time), and (c) I really dislike parsing XML in JavaScript when JSON
seems like a viable alternative. (Though, given my size/space if JSON
isn't going to work, I'm not averse to using XML.)

View 2 Replies View RelatedFrom the common user perspective (like my grandma), why would they care
if its a java applet or an ajax application? Say I want to make a chat
system on my website...If i'm doing really involved Comet push-style
data communication, and rendering everything using DHTML, why would
users prefer that over a java applet?
Moreover, say I use a java applet to transfer data through a socket
connection, then use DHTML to display the data, so that basically the
front end is the same, but the backend is differs, why would a user
prefer the comet-style programming over applet?
I'm asking because I wrote an Ajax chat system through polling, and I
want to switch to a Comet push-style system because polling just isn't
responsive enough. I want to know if I can avoid Comet (since it is
alot of overhead for the server) and just use an applet in the
background to transfer data through socket connections, then use DHTML
to render the chat boxes.
just came across this in a book for browser javascript on/off detection:
Code:
<noscript>
<img src="monitor.php?scriptoff=true" />
</noscript>
just wondering if browsers when js is off will ever access any
<script type="text/javascript" src="file.js"></script>
files? i mean wouldn't it be better not to bother with the noscript thing and just be aware of if file.js is accessed? or do some browsers access the file.js even when js is off?
In my quest to implement ajax for the first time i've hit a brick wall. i've been searching for hours for a solution but with no success. Here is the problem.
[Code]...
why is it not working? my PHP code is outputting the contents of the xml document.
So i am working on a piece that using local storage and saves them to an un ordered list. I have been using Chrome for the console and inspector abilities and it has been going well. I've tested it before in Safari and Opera and I know it works. However, in Firefox (and IE but I don't care about that) I am getting a console error.
Here is the code being executed:
There is some jQuery thrown in there but basically it says, test for a localStorage key of i, if it is not null create the list item, add one to i and repeat.
I am getting the following error in firefox only:
Index or size is negative or greater than the allowed amount" code: "1 [Break on this error] while (localStorage.key(i) != null)
I've been experimenting with Local Storage. I can do things like this just fine:
But if I do this:
...then place it in local storage, reading it back gives me a TEXT STRING that says "[Object object]" and not the actual object.
I would like to be able to store multiple values in one object, but it doesn't seem to work.
I also tried to store a variable obtained with "document.getElementById" and when read back it just says [HTMLDivElement] (something like that) instead of the actual element.
Am I doing something wrong, or does local storage not support objects? (btw, tested on FF 3.6).
How do I check to see if HTML5 localstorage is empty?
I don't need to know what's inside just if there is anything inside.
Code:
This is returning empty all the time.
I'm attempting to track changes to values I've stored in the localStorage object. From everything thing I've read, this is done by adding a "storage" event listener to the window object but the test file I made doesn't seem to fire the event. I was under the impression that there was pretty good support for this (although I do realize the spec is still under revision).
Code:
if(localStorage) {
// Set Item
button1 = document.createElement("input");
[Code].....
I create two buttons on the page - the first to write a value to localStorage (which works) and the second to clear all values from localStorage (also works). The problem is the event just does not want to fire for me. Even if I set the event on the window's "onstorage" property rather than use addEventListener, no event fires. I've tried in the most recent Chrome, Firefox and Safari browsers.
How to convert my cookie script over to HTML 5 LocalStorage.
Here's my cookie script:
I've recently written a small javascript library that creates a unified interface for localStorage and sessionStorage.
The code is here[URL]... I'm looking for people to give me feedback and to help me work on it should you so wish.
I've just started my venture into HTML5 localStorage. I now have a javascript my server sends to those who visit my ip address. I store all their data using localStorage. I have a few security questions regarding the HTML5 localStorage situation:
1. Can a script that did not create the local storage retrieve/modify the localStorage of another script just by guessing the key maliciously or unintentionally?
2. Can another script use the clear() method to remove my scripts data? Edit: I just tried this myself. And, yes, I deleted my data, all of it with clear() using a different script. Is there any way to prevent this? Is it only my end that will be able to do it or could I load a script from a site has a hidden clear() method and destory all other javascript apps data?
3. If item (2) is true, any ideas on how to protect my scripts data for the user from the clear method?
4. if item (2) is false, cool, my first idea is to create a uniqnue string random string and ask the user to creat a password to encrpt that string and just use that string with enumeration added to it for the keys.
5. Does anyone know where localData is stored? Is it encrypted already, in plain text, in well-known or hidden location?
I've been using localStorage to store a large amount of data (> 5mb). I know that most browsers limit localStorage to 5mb. However, on the specification site it states,
Quote:
User agents may prompt the user when quotas are reached, allowing the user to grant a site more space. This enables sites to store many user-created documents on the user's computer, for instance.
Is this available yet? If so, how would I use it?
