Javascript Browser Compatibility Internet Resource?
Jul 23, 2005Is there a resource on the internet to tell me which javascript can
work with which browser.
For instance, can I use style.color with all browsers - that kind of
thing.

2 Browser Compatibility Problems
Nov 5, 2006I was really hoping that someone could help me sort out two minor problems which I'm experiencing with by JavaScript and two browsers. (FireFox and Safari)
1. Safari doesn't support style="background:#CCCCCC;"
I use the following JS code to change the background color of my select boxes.
HTML Code:
var backcolor = "#CCCCCC";
document.getElementById('operatings').style.background = backcolor;
Unfortunately Safari doesn't support this. I could use the following :
HTML Code:
var backcolor = "#CCCCCC";
document.getElementById('operatings').style.background-color = backcolor;
...but it doesn't work. Probably because the JS reads the dash ( - ) as a syntax error. What alternative is there to this?
2. FireFox doesn't support 'value="";'
I use the following code to reset the selection of a <select> drop down :
HTML Code:
document.getElementById('operatings').value = "";
...but FireFox doesn't seem to support this.
What alterative is there to unselecting the selected the option in a <select> dropdown? I know about the reset button, but unfortunately I cannot use this.
Browser Compatibility For Centering Function
Jul 23, 2005I have the following funciton that centers my website content for any size window and will center it in real time as the window is expanded or shrunk. It is activated by a
onresize="CenterIt();"
in the body tag.
Works fine for IE. How do I make it compatible with netscape and most browsers? Better yet, is there a good single source that explains how to write javascript to be compatible with all browsers? 766 and 435 are the width and height of my table that surrounds the website data defined so:
<TABLE id="Main" style="position:absolute; z-index:0; top:0; left:0;">
function CenterIt()
{
newOffsetWidth = 0;
newOffsetHeight = 0;
if (document.getElementById)
{
winW = document.body.offsetWidth;
winH = document.body.offsetHeight;
}
else if (document.all)
{
/*
What goes here????
*/
}
else if (document.layers)
{
/*
What goes here????
*/
}
if (winW > 766)
newOffsetWidth = ((winW - 766) / 2) - 10;
if (winH > 435)
newOffsetHeight = ((winH - 435) / 2);
if (document.getElementById)
{
document.getElementById('Main').style.left = newOffsetWidth;
document.getElementById('Main').style.top = newOffsetHeight;
}
else if (document.all)
{
/*
What goes here????
*/
}
else if (document.layers)
{
/*
What goes here????
*/
}
}
CenterIt();

Protype.js Browser Compatibility - Does Not Work In IE 7 Or Lower
Dec 9, 2009I have looked around and not been able to find a definitive answer to this. Prototype does not work in IE 7 or lower. All other browsers work just fine. Even something as simple as toggle(); will not work in older versions of IE. I don't get any errors or anything like that. It doesn't really seem like a compatibility issue as much as it does that those browsers could be parsing the code differently?

Jul 23, 2005Can anyone point me to a site that gives a good (basic) tutorial on writing
JS so that it runs in multiple browsers?
I have a web app that's been targeted for IE 5.5 but need it to work in
other browsers such as Mozilla.
Things I've noticed are HTML lines like <div class="divwithborder"
style="width:600px; height:351px;left:20px"> - in mozilla the "height"
attribute seems to be completely ignored!
Universal Browser Compatibility - Mobile Device Connectivity This Is Making Things Even Harder
Feb 7, 2011We run a click and sales tracking solution for our advertisers and as such we are having a few issues with browser compatability for certian sites that are ont eh Magento platform. Essentially we are just trying to create an image call in javascript that uses a few pre-populated variables from the checkout process.
So teh issue we are having doesn't seem to be broser specific. We are trying to simplify the javascript call to ensure we have the highest possible chance of compatiablity. Obviously now with so many differnt browsers and also mobile devide connectivity this is making things even harder. We know that our javascript calls are failing as we've been monitoring our IIS logs and can see the image calls are being made with blank variables. There are 3 different elements to our checkout calls that maybe you guys have experience of with possible issues or fixes:
1. unescape function
2. onload event function for images
3. creating images dynamically
these are very basic elements of the javascript core but aout 5-10% of our calls are failing with blank variables being passed into the image call. So the questions is what elements of our call will be the possibel sources of failure?

JavaScript IE Compatibility Issue
Mar 31, 2007I might as well start off like everyone else who posts problems they
are having....So I'm new to JavaScript.....
Anywho, I have a page that lists 15 or so thumbnails and then one big
image of one of those thumbnails. I wrote some javascript code that
when you click on the thumbnail the real picture of that thumbnail
loads in the big image on the page. So essentially I wrote some very
simple code that replaces the "src" of an image tag on an onClick
event. I also replace some text within some elements that are tagged
with an ID. Everything works great in all browsers except in internet
explorer 6.0 (and possibly other versions of IE, just 6.0 is all I'm
using). If anyone has run into this problem before, or notices
something wrong with the code ...

Accessing Another Internet Explorer Browser Window
Sep 5, 2006I'm not sure if this is possible, but I'm looking for a way to access

Refresh Browser On Lost Internet Connection
Nov 26, 2010I am having an issue with a script which fails when the internet connection is lost, and so it should.
Is there a way that the web page can be automatically refreshed if the connection is lost using JavaScript. I need to continually refresh until the connection is back on.
I know all about META refresh but that does not help.
Change Text Size If Browser Is Internet Explorer?
May 27, 2010I build a website with Typo3 and it works fine, except for the text size in Internet Explorer (and Opera). I tried anything from changing the CSS templates (excluding them) to changing px to pt to em and so. Finally, I think i need a Javascript that detects the browser and if it is Internet Explorer (or Opera) the textsize should be reduce by 1. It therfore should be the same like manually clicking in IE on View->text size -> smaller (default is medium).
My javascript (I just use Javascript for this single purpose) does not work/it does not do anything:
function resizeText(){ if (browserName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer") {document.body.style.fontSize = parseFloat (document.body.style.fontSize) -1 ;}}

Best Resource For Learning Script?
Jun 6, 2011I'm in the process of learning JavaScript. I picked up a "JavaScript for dummies" book at the library and it wasn't going too well. It was poorly written and made it difficult to understand things in the later chapter.
What is the best online resource to learning JavaScript? Preferrably one that is good at explaining format ( I often find myself wondering if certain aspects in my script need ()'s or a "=" sign).
For example, HTML has tags and that is what forms the mark up. I know JavaScript has multiple aspects (functions, objects), but I want an online resourcethat properly explains the format of these aspects.

Convenient Way For Windows XP Internet Explorers To Add My Javascript Bookmarklet?
Aug 14, 2005In pre-Windows XP Internet Explorer, adding a bookmarklet for a user was
really simple. All I add to do was create a link that executed
addFavorite().
Internet Explorer under Windows XP won't allow that due to its new security
measures.
How can I make adding a bookmarklet convenient for my Windows XP IE users
without having them to do surgery on their security preferences?
Right now I'm having them Ctrl-D to add a new bookmark. Right-click the new
bookmark to get the Properties dialog, and then pasting in the contents of
my bookmarklet. This is quite messy as you can imagine. In addition, when
they save the bookmarklet, they have to hit "Yes" to an error box telling
them that "javascript:" does not have a registered program associated with
it, do they want to save the bookmark anyways?
Internet Explorer Vs. Firefox Javascript Array Performance
Oct 10, 2006I am trying to complete a javascript application and am having problems
with code similar to that show below.
Much testing has shown that Firefox finishes the code shown in around
0.25 secs but Internet Explorer 6 takes a massive 3.5 secs! Internet
Explorer 7 gets it down to around 2 seconds - but that's still 8 times
slower than Firefox and way unacceptable for my userbase.
Looking through the newsgroups there is some discussion around the
differences between the way the two browsers handle arrays - but a
performance differential such as this is just unbelievably dismal.
Unfortunately I need to continue to use arrays of objects and have to
support the Internet Explorer client base. I have already added
specification of the array size and also removed the use of array
"push"ing - flattening the array is not really an option. Code:
