I do not know much about javascript, so please excuse me if my question is
not clear:
If I build a string in Javascript
string = "http://test_server_a.some_domain.org"+download_trial_of_product.exe
Then use
document.location.href=string
It works in Firefox, the popup box says,. would you like to download this
file... and the download is what its supposed to be. However, it does not
work well in IE. All I get is a nasty pop-up box talking about downloading
an Object. What am I doing wrong?
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.
I want to be able to do is to have a button that when the user clicks on it, it will open a "save as" dialog box so they can save a file (a separate file, not the html one that they are looking at) from my server. Is this really not possible using javascript, or am I just completely confused again?
I'm trying to allow people to download music files, from my web site server, to their desk top, by clicking a button. I don't know if I need html or some kind of script. The page already plays short music clips automaticly with a simple "onload" script I found somewhere--but I don't know how to get the viewer a copy of the music for their mp3 player or disk burner.
I'm trying to come up with a script and I'm having a heck of a time...
I require users to enter the size (in MB or KB) of the attachment they wish to transfer/upload. As they enter the number and move over to the next field (using onBlur or...), I would like a popup/alert window warning them that this attachment size would take "x" amount of time based on a speed of 24 kilobits per second (kbps). If they are happy with the amount of time, I wish to allow them to click OK (to carry on with the transfer) or Cancel/No to cancel it.
I have an accordion pane with each pane containing checkboxes and a button. How do I disable the buttons on all the accordion panes until the users checks at least one checkbox?
Is it possible, using client-side JavaScript, to test a series of download sites to see which is most likely to be the fastest file download site for a user?
I wondered whether JavaScript could download a portion of a file, or alternatively a small sample image file, just to test the download speed of each site, then report to the user the fastest, next fastest, and so on.
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.
I have read some posts regarding the jQuery installation, but somehow i am still lost.Everyone seems to download the file with just one click. I have also read the installation instructions with no luck.When i hit the "Download jQuery" button, some code appearsAfter 2 days, I found out that you need to save that file and then "activate" it in DreamWeaver.How do i do this? Does the file need to be in the Root Folder? Or does it work if it's somewhere in the computer?I even saw a video where they just dragged the file into the Html Head area and that was it.
I 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
I 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?
function ButtonClicked() { alert("The button has been clicked."); }
Calling it from an HTML button is no problem at all. But there is no way I can call that function from an ASP button. I tried from the HTML side or the aspx side.
I understood that an ASP button run only on the server. But I can't believe you can't make that simple call. I really hate to use HTML button when the design with ASP on a Web Form is so fast and easy.
Since I am a newbie, some code example will be appreciated.
Briefly, I have an ASP button that I want to call the Javascript function "ButtonClicked"
I am a novice with both asp and javascript so I may not even be doing this correctly, but I have an asp page that has variable being passed to it and I have a button that I need to have it go to one page if it is one variable and another if it was the other variable. There is only two choices but my attempts didnt work.
does anyone have a handy check all script? I have a series of check boxes in a form and would like to add the option of clicking a button to select all.
My question is if the method is post and the input type is submit anyway to make it rollover? if not what would a javascript look like that would use the post method?
I have a 3-state rollover: home.gif, homeover.gif, and homeclick.gif
I would like to make the homeclick image be selected when going to the page it pertains to.
The way I'm doing it now, is I'm just changing the image for that particular page, to homeclick instead of home.gif, but I know there's a better way, isn't there?
Im wanting a certain submit a certain input button (I have several different ones in one form) depending on which drop down item they select.
So if they select Copy. I would want the javascript function to basically act like <input type="submit" name="copyfile" /> was clicked, and similarly if Rename was clicked, I would like it to act as if <input type="submit" name="rename" /> was submitted.
I have a page where users can filter a list of links using javascript clicks. The user then clicks a link in that list, views the page and then clicks back on the browser to view the rest of the list but the javascript options they filtered in the list are gone resulting in them having to do it all over again. Is there a solution to this?
Would it work if I store their selections in a cookie each time they click a javascript button and then when they visit a link and click back (to what is presumably now a cached page) will I be able to have javascript that will read the cookie and reset their options again or is the cookie not loaded on a cached page?
Are there any common solutions to this kind of thing?
What I want to do is create a button, that when pressed, closes the window it is in, and launches a URL. The window the button is in is actually just a sub-page of the main website page, launched with target="blank", but I just do not want to close the window as I said, I want to launch a website address from it & have the launched from window close.
So please, walk me through this. Where do I place the:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> ?
(Oh - this is thr right way, correct - case sensitive, right?)
Then what? I can create a button with the tutorials, but if you know, just write the darned thing for me please - I learned HTML mostly from copy/pasting.
AND... OK, now more complicated maybe (???). Actually this is more important than the above. This is from an application sub-page, the page opening with target="_blank". So the below is HTML that creates buttons. If the applicant presses the "submit application" button, at least when I press it, it launches O.E. and asks me if I want to send the filled-in text through O.E. to the email recipient. You know what I mean, right ? Well, I want the window the "submit application" button is in to do it's thing all right - submitting through the email, but I also want the page or window (I.E. or other?) launched from to close also.
I created a "cancel" button for my form at the clients' request, I accidentally copied a submit button and added an OnClick event- a very simple javascript.history function. It did not appear to work at all- it kept submitting the form. I changed the submit button to a plain old button and it worked fine.
Can anyone explain how the browser works with a javascript onClick event ona submit button? Does it automatically submit the form no matter what onClick event you use?
I am trying to move some text by clicking a button. When clicked the button runs the java script and this will then take the value in the text field and add 10 to it to create a new value, this is then used to move the text (id=h1) to a new position and to display the new value in a text field. My script is below but does not work. Im new to javascrip and there is probably something embarasingly obviour that Im missing. Code:
I took over management of an established website that I discovered was written in php and javascript (I am only familiar with html).
I needed to add in a new button so I looked at the code, copied the code and pasted for the button above and typed over it the names of the gifs and gave it a new button number. I found another place in the code that appeared to relate so I did the same there too.
After uploading I tested my new button, it worked, so I deleted the original copy I had made of the page.....
Problem was the new button is now the only one that works and I have no idea how to undo what I did to make it work again.
