View 7 Replies View RelatedI have many bit of javascript code that does not work. Becasue I dont have a great heal of experience using javascript, Im not too sure where the code goes wrong.
Is there any good javascript debuggers that I can use that will allow me to go through line by line of that javascript code to see whats going on?
A newly added, not-quite-wanted function of my job is remotely
debugging JavaScript errors on other people's web applications. I have
tried finding a JavaScript debugger that would allow me to do that, but
other the Microsoft Script Debugger, I couldn't find any other.
Are there such programs? Basically, what I'd like to be able to do is
trace commands step by step and view the values of certain variables.
I was unable to figure out how to get Microsoft Script Debugger to
work. I read the documentation and executed it, but I keep getting
"Syntax error" messages whenever I want to see the value of a variable.
Add to that the fact that I am not a developer and I do not know
JavaScript (other than to read it, which is enough for me to figure out
what the problem is) and you see my problem.
I have read about the option of adding message boxes all over the
place, but this would not work out for me either, since I would need to
make changes to this code on the web server, where I don't have access,
and it would be a lot more tedious.
For those skeptical as to why I still expect to be able to debug
problems:
The problems are caused in most cases by the proxy we add on their web
servers, and they are due to values being changed on the fly. I only
need to find out where the code breaks and read the values of the
variables, which gives me the solution ("do not change this variable").
Are there any auto-code-generating tools available to generate JavaScript (equivalent to Frontpage for HTML)?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI really want to make my scripts work in Opera. I really, really do.
But it seems like an uphill struggle. First of all, I can't get ANY
kind of debug output. No error messages in the "javascript console" -
but then, I have never seen ANYTHING in Opera's javascript console. Is
there some kind of voodoo I need to perform in order to make that work?
Then, when Opera doesn't like something about a script (even if it works
fine in Spidermonkey), it will sometimes refuse to load it entirely,
which means I can't even do alert() based debugging. What the hell?
Can anyone give me some insight as to how they go about making their
scripts run properly in Opera? I make a point of sticking to ECMAScript
standards (and then making per-browser exceptions where needed *COUGH
IE*), but Opera just doesn't want to cooperate.
This is in Opera 8, by the way. I haven't upgraded yet, since I don't
use it, and I think more people still use 8 than 9 so that's what I want
to target.
Microsoft Script Debugger has been depreciated.
What tools are recommended for debugging JS for IE? I'm only interested in IE7 and 8, but mostly 8.
There are plenty of tools for FF...
I'm finding (like small syntax errors) in my JS/html which are sometimes hard to spot straight away. For example, when coding python on the web, I usually use try: except: and then use the error function to output what went wrong on the webpage.

JavaScript in Aptana?
Assuming it is, I'm trying to get a script to read an external text
file and display the text somehow. The script just dies in the file-
read operation, with no symptom. I tried unsuccessfully to get the
Debugger to run the HTML file.
I put up the following on my personal website:
1. The HTML file: http://home.comcast.net/~CaptQueeg/DemoFileIO.html
2. Some Aptana settings: http://home.comcast.net/~CaptQueeg/...bugSettings.jpg
Did any obvious mistakes jump out at you? Do my Aptana settings
suggest a reason why I can get anything happening under the debugger?
I recently changed my commenting system to display comments from newest to oldest (newest first). I also moved my comment form above my comments, like in Youtube.However, I have many JQuery problems when I have 2 or more pages of comments. Here are some of them:
1. If I comment, the last page (oldest) comments are displayed when the comment is submitted.
2. If I "reply" to a comment, the comment form moves below the comments.
Code:
function setup_comment_ajax() {
jQuery(".comment-navigation a").livequery("click", function () {
$link = jQuery(this);

I'm looking for a little help/feedback regarding using a plugin called jqPrint. I haven't used jQuery extensively, and I am new to plugins, so please forgive any novice errors.
First of all, i see on the source page for the plugin [URL].. that it is made for 1.3.x. I assume this does not mean that mean it is incompatible with 1.4.2, which is what my project uses. I have a script with the source code, and I can access a test function. However, I'm running into several problems when trying to to use the primary function of the script.
[Code]...
I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong. The script is set up so I can access a test function, but the source function does not work. I would think anyone using the author's script should not need to edit it, but I can't figure out why my project cant' find the jqprint function.
I have a couple of server side scripts that keep troubling me. So far I used Visual Studio to debug them, but for some reason I can't put in breakpoints and stuff ... So debugging like I'm used to is not possible. (I'm developing the sites in dreamweaver) I've tried adding a logging function to a flat textfile, but I've been told traditionally writing to a file is not possible in a server side script... how I can best debug such an application? Is it possible to do so in Visual Studio? Another tool?

Am I right to be assigning variable names to the values from the text boxes and then referencing those variables in my alert?
I've been working on it for hours and can't get past this point.
Inset a name:
<input type="text" id="textbox1" size="10"/>

I'm trying to attempt a simple animation, as indicated by the following code. The intention is to move the object (a paragraph element node with id message) to the right by 200 px and down 100 px, by 1 px a second.
However, there seems to be a bug or my methodology is incomplete as the browser returns the Textvalue of the paragraph without any styling.

Anyone know where to get a Tool Tips javascript that will pop up a little
box when hovered for words that needs more explanation. I'm using Front Page
BTW.
Using IE6 on Win2000, I went to the tooltips demo. Try resizing the browser so that the tipped phrase "lorem ipsum" in the first para is close to the right hand edge, then when you mouse the phrase, to stay in the window, the tip box resizes itself to be several rows high. This means it projects down over the phrase that it popped up from.
If in doing so, the tip finds itself under the mouse, it promptly closes.
Then the mouse is again over the words, so the tip reappears, but the
tip is under the mouse, so it closes, etc, etc, etc.
Have anyone tried this web scraping tool? I think is relatively new but I have no idea how to use it. Apparently it has some JavaScript support.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am interested in creating a tool for other webmasters to place on their website. Basically, I want it to be like a random quote generator, so that every time their page is viewed a random quote will be shown. I can do this using PHP and MySQL, but it works much better for using just on my own website than for providing to others. Does anyone know of a tutorial that can explain this process by using javascript?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been tasked with reproducing something quite similar to the following website [url]...
I examined the site, and after looking at the source I have determined that a lot of it looks like it was coded in JavaScript. While I do know a bit of JavaScript but I must admit it's not the sharpest tool in my arsenal.
Since this "application" will be heavy on the JavaScript interface, I was wondering if there was a GUI RAD tool for JavaScript similar to Visual C# for .NET.
So far I have looked into Visual Web Developer 2010 Express, Dreamweaver, and most recently the Google Web Toolkit (with GWT Designer), is anyone familiar with any of these tools, and will any of these help me develop a largely GUI based JS application?
1.I want to display a tool tip for each item in multi select
box(list box) in a web page.

if any genius knows the solution .pls reply me.
I am writing a database which I edit locally using PHP / MySQL / JavaScript. What I currently do is to list all my DVD covers from a single folder into a drop box but what I would LIKE to do is to have a browsing facility (similar to uploading files) which is obviously a lot quicker. However, what I need is not an upload file form object, rather a simple click button which will
open a browser, allow me to select a file and return the name of the file - just the file not the full directory structure. Is it possible to either just get the file upload form object to return just the name or, using either PHP or JavaScript write a function that will do what I need?
