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 guess this is an easy question for all javascripters but I don't know how to manage (I'm pretty fresh with JS). I found two solutions on this forum but it seems that they don't work(?).I want to delay for few seconds window.location.href="destination_site.html" before it will automatically take visitor to destination site. It has something to do with setTimeout but I would be greatful for posting a fixed code.
<input type="reset" name="cancel" value="Cancel" onclick="javascript:window.location.href('/index.php');" /> In IE5.5 clicking the cancel button loads the index.php page fine. In Firefox 1.0 & also the version of IE running on my IPAQ it doesn't work - clicking the button doesn't do anything.
Anyone have any ideas or alternative solutions? I thought maybe I was using an IE only thing but it is a version of IE on the IPAQ. I thought maybe it was not standards compliant but I haven't found anyone having a similar problem.
Any idea or advice? TIA, BG.
PS Ignore that I am using a reset button to do this - I have also tried it in the body tag like this:
Code:
<body onload="javascript:alert('Login Successfull! You are logged into my app');window.location.href('/myapp/index.php');">
I know next to nothing about javascript and I don't even know if this is possible. I need to target window.location.href to an iframe on a different page. So, right now, the piece of the code that redirects the browser looks like this: window.location.href='http://www.somewhere.com/'; Works great, brings it up in the same browser window. So now I need to modify the code so it goes to a different page and brings that page up in a specified iframe.
I am developing an application that is opened via a modal popup from another application that I do not have control over. In IE, the method of creating the popup that holds my application is window.showModalDialog. When I redirect the user via javascript with something as simple as, location.href='someURL'; another popup window is opened rather than just redirecting the browser. When a user is using anything other than IE, the window.open method is used and those browsers redirect within the same window appropriately.
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?
It launches in IE and give the user instructions, then at the click of a button, launches my setup.exe. I want my webpage to launch setup.exe then go to another webpage on my CD, congratulations.html, which says "installation is complete etc". Here's what I am trying to do through JAvascript. It doesn't work. Should the first instruction be flushed in order for the 2nd one to work?
I'm trying to create a player stats page, for my gaming server. I spoke to a guy who knows a little about javascript, and he told me there's a way to use document.location.href to direct to a custom page URL.
For example, if I search for a name, and the results are displayed. I want to click the players username, and be directed to. [url] without the "username.html" actually existing.
I heard it's possible, and it would save me a lot of time because I don't want to have 20,000+ individual pages, one for each username.
I have inherited some code that changes the behavior or menu links with submenus to open the submenu but I need it to both open the submenu and go to the link location.
Here is the code: $('#leftNav #menu li a').click( function() { $('#leftNav #menu li a').removeClass('selectedAccordion'); $(this).addClass('selectedAccordion'); $('#leftNav #menu ul.currentnav li a').removeClass('selectedAccordion'); $('#leftNav #menu li ul li a').removeClass('selectedAccordion'); //$(this).parent('li').addClass('selectedAccordion'); var checkElement = $(this).next(); if((checkElement.is('ul')) && (checkElement.is(':visible'))){ return false; } if((checkElement.is('ul')) && (!checkElement.is(':visible'))) { if(checkElement.parent().parent().parent().is(':visible')) { checkElement.slideDown('normal'); return false; } $('#leftNav #menu ul:visible').slideUp('normal'); checkElement.slideDown('normal'); return false; }}
How do I put back the behavior to open the submenu AND go to the link location? I found I could add location.href = $(this).attr('href'); and go to the correct, but then the submenus slideUp and are hidden again. I can't figure out why changing the page closes the menus.
I have a couple of links of which I change location.href for tracking purposes.
The problem is that the links now no longer seem to open in a new window (which was accomplished using target="_blank")
Is this an error on my part or is this by design? Is there a workaround? I would prefer not to use window.open as that could get blocked by a popup blocker.
I'm passing the asp parameters using the url current page is files.asp and I'm using window.location.href=files.asp?action=deletefile to pass the action to the serverside
My code never got executed (like the page was cached) unless i put document.write("") before the window.location directive.
Here's the code:
function confirmDelete(x){ var potvrda=confirm("Kliknite OK za brisanje. Cancel za povratak."); if (potvrda==true) { trans="files.asp?action="+x; document.write("") window.location.href=trans; } else {} }
I'm trying to use the onload event to load a series of urls. What I find is that the onload function is only called one time no matter how large the array. Here is the onload function.
var next_win = 0; var win = window.open("", "", ""); function nextWin() { if (next_win < urls.length) { win. win.location.href=urls[next_win++]; }}
i have a really stupid problem with this line of code: location.href = "showreport.php?id=" + sText;
sText is an id of a job that's running on the server.
Showreport.php retrieves the job and outputs the result in HTML. At the same time job is removed from the server.
What happens is that some browsers (IE 6 mostly) like to GET the showreport.php TWICE. Of course the second time there is no job any more and the result returned is of zero length, which is very unpleasant ;-)

Note the Accept tag. What's even more interesting, the accept tag of IE 6.0 that does not request twice is: Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, */*
Note the (still) absent application/pdf, which is the target content here.
Can somebody explain to me, why two calls and if that can be prevented. I can reduce the problem by keeping the job for another minute or so, but these jobs tend to be rather large (>10MB RAM usage) when large reports are generated.
Why does that not work? adding that line gives me a javascript error of some sort in IE. I see nothing wrong with it. Yet if I take that out I don't get the error, if I put it in I get the error.
Ok I have tried and tried and cannot get this code to work in safari or google chrome.
Basically I am working on a shopping cart. The user will click the paypal pay now button. The form is submitted to paypal via a new window target="_blank"
I also need to refresh the current page. This will write shopping cart data to DB via php upon page refresh.
Safari and google Chrome will open the paypal window, but seems to ignore the javascript to refresh the browser.
FF and IE both work fine.
