Javascript In FireFox Vs IE
Aug 9, 2004
All this time I was testing my sites only in IE6 until my friend told me it wasn't working in FireFox. So I have to make changes in my Javascript code. In the Javascript console all the errors are pointed at the window object in all lines. alert(event.type) gives event undefined. Then I tried Event.type because I read somewhere that mozilla reads it as Event while IE as event. But then it gives:
Error: document.Event has no properties
Source File: http://localhost/xxx/xxx/xxx.js
Line: 3
Any idea of what I should be doing for it to work in FireFox ? The site works perfectly fine in IE until someone told me that IE doesn't follow w3c rules.

I have the script below, which is supposed to populate a text box
on a form which opened this popup window - it should then call a
function 'PostThisPage' on the opener document, and then close the
current window/popup.
This works ok in IE - can anyone please help me by pointing out what it
needs to become cross-browser compatible? It doesn't work in Firefox
1.0.
<script>
window.opener.document.forms(0).tbGoToDate.value = 񟭄-11-11'
window.opener.PostThisPage();
window.close();
</script>

I use the following script in order to show/hide a section, and at the same
time to change a companion .gif with another:
function doExpand(paraNum,arrowNum){
if
(paraNum.style.display=="none"){paraNum.style.display="";arrowNum.src="../../images/arrOn.gif"}
else {paraNum.style.display="none";arrowNum.src="../../images/arrOff.gif"}
}
and then in the body:
<div id="reltpc"><a href="javascript:;" onClick="doExpand(xplan1,ico1)"><img
id="ico1" src="../../images/arrOff.gif" alt="" width="10" height="9"
border="0"> Show Info</a></div>
<div id="xplan" style="display:none" onClick="doExpand(xplan,ico1)">
<p>text here</p>
<p>some more text here</p>
</div>
Furthermore, two more scripts are used in order to show/hide a section
without the image:
function doSection (secNum){
if (secNum.style.display=="none"){secNum.style.display="block"}
else{secNum.style.display="none"}
}
function noSection (secNum){
if (secNum.style.display=="block"){secNum.style.display="none"}
}
and then in the body:
<div id="more"><a href="javascript:;" onClick="doSection(dtails1)">More
Info</a></div>
<div id="dtails1" style="display:none" onClick="noSection(dtails1)">
<p>text here</p>
<p>some more text here</p>
</div>
All three of them are working good in IE and Ffox, however the second claims
to use "gelElementById" instead.
Well, how could it be done? Would you help me please, to get that
conversion?

I have a php page with a drop down list, and the default selected
option is "Select a location" (without quotes).
Using the drop down initiates a database query. One of (3) things
should happen:
1. If an option is selected for which results are available, they
should be displayed on the same page beneath the drop down list in a
table.
2. If an option is selected for which results are NOT available, a
message should be displayed informing the visitor that there were no
results for that query.
3. If the default selected option has not yet been changed (ie: when
the page first loads), no message should display.
#1 and #2 work, but the message described in #2 is still displayed when
the page first loads before the default selected option is changed (#3)
but in Internet Explorer only. Firefox displays the page correctly
under all three conditions.
The message that I want hidden on page load is wrapped in a div named
"infobox" and I'm using the following script to hide it which is at the
bottom of the page:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function ClearDiv()
{
if
(document.form2.name.options[document.form2.name.selectedIndex].value=="Select
a location")
{
document.getElementById("infobox").style.display =
"none";
}
}
ClearDiv();
</script>
I've also included the php code that writes out the message and the
table below....

I have a section of Javascript code that works a treat in IE but does nothing in Firefox. If we remove the doctype it appears to work, put the doctype back in and it breaks. We need the doctype to remain in so the page renders correctly cross-browser. Code:

Usually it's the other way (IE works, Firefox not working)... but here it is. IE does render something, although it puts the advert script (starting on line 9) at the very end, after the close of the last table. Firefox displays it as I have intended it (Ad inside the table). Code:

I have some code, using all the DOM documentation in the developer.mozilla.org website. For some reason it's only working in the newest Firefox 2 versions, and not 1.5.0.x
I'm having a hard time finding any documentation of what's not supported.
Can you guys help me? Here are the functions I'm calling:
getRangeAt();
range.collapsed
document.createElement("div");
range.cloneContents();
element.appendChild(clone);
document.getElementById("divid");
do you think it's createElement div? Maybe I can't create a div element?

I've got a page that creates an iframe and uses javascript to write to it.
Works like a charm in IE but not Firefox.
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
document.write ('<iframe width="100" height="100" name="myframe" src="blank.htm" FRAMEBORDER="1" scrolling="no"></iframe>');
document.frames[0].document.open();
document.frames[0].document.writeln('<html><head></head><body>');
document.frames[0].document.writeln('YO!</body></html>');
document.frames[0].document.close();
//--></script>
What I get in IE is the "YO!" written to the iframe. What I get in Firefox is the 404 not found page of the site where the original "jstest.html" page and script are hosted.

I have a page with words within TH tags. When you put your mouse over the entire table, it is supposed to change an image source location to the one in the onmouseover as well as a block of text. I keep getting undefined errors though. I've been unsuccessful googling for the past hour for the proper syntax for accessing the span and image properties in mozilla. I tried adding document in front of each monument, mainimg, and maintxt without any luck. It has worked fine in IE6.....

I've been using the very cool Transmenu javascript drop down menu that I heard about on this forum. Below the menu is a flash movie that I set to 'transparent' so that the menu will display on top of the movie. This works GREAT on internet explorer, however I've recently become a big fan of firefox and the menu still seems to fall behind the flash movie in that browser.
Has anyone had experience with this issue? I could really use a solution here to get the menu to display on top of the flash.

I'm having some trouble implementing a popup in firefox. I attached some
simplified code at the bottom. This is part of a firefox extension. What
happens is that a popup window is created, the popup window updates it's
data depending on what is shown on the main window. The problem comes when i
click the 'X' to close the popup window. it crashes firefox, and closes all
firefox windows. can somebody help me with this? why does this happen? I'm
99% sure the error comes from the form in the html code.
window.getNode = function (t)
{//stuff}
window.printNode = function (node)
{//stuff}
window.updateWindow = function (num, tag, inner) {
outputWindow.document.outputForm.nodeNum.value = num;
outputWindow.document.outputForm.nodeTag.value = tag;
outputWindow.document.outputForm.innerHTML.value = inner;
}
//popup
window.outputWindow = window.open('', 'outwindow', 'width=500,height=500');
//add contents to window
outputWindow.document.write("<html><body><form name='outputForm'>Node
number:<input type=text size=20 name='nodeNum' value=''><br>Node tag:<input
type=text size=10 name='nodeTag' value=''><br>Inner HTML:<input type=text
size=50 name='innerHTML' value=''></form></body></html>");

I created an extension for firefox that acts as a bookmarklet for
Gmail, Yahoo, and all standalone clients (via the mailto function).
Upon clickin on the toolbar-button it will send a user the the title
and url in the subject line and body respectively.
Recently, I've been bombarded with emails on adding a feature which
will allow the user to send the page as it is displayed (none of the
coding).
I;ve been researching for a couple of days now and I've come up with
nothing.
I know in IE 5.5+ they have a feature that does this but no one seems
to know how to emulate this feature.
I thought there might be somethign along the lines of
"content.document.*" like there is for the title fo a document,
"content.document.title".....

I am using foldoutmenu 3 and am having problems with viewing my menus
in firefox. On my sub3 menus i have more than one line of text in some
places. firefox does not recognise that there is more than one line
and the text simply overlaps the sub-menus below it. I thought i had
got around this by placing empty 'spacers' like so;
oFoldMenu.make('sub3','')//spacer
unfortunately, i have just viewed the site in IExplorer and it has
added way too much space since it does in fact recognise the fact that
there is more than one line in the first place.
Is there some way i can make firefox recognise the extra lines of
text? Has anyone else had a similar problem?

The main page of the site has this script which determines the
language settings of the OS. This works fine for IE but not for
firefox. Is there any other codes which i have to insert to make sure
Firefox would be able to load it?
<script type="text/javascript">
function detectlang()
{
var lang=navigator.userLanguage
var langs=navigator.systemLanguage
var langb=navigator.browserLanguage
if
((langs=="ar-sa"||lang=="ar-sa"||langb=="ar-sa"))
{window.location.reload("http://www.flynas.com/ara/index.html")}
else
{window.location.reload("http://www.flynas.com/eng/index.html")}
}

Firefox has a Javascript Console that has 3 panels besides "All" and "Clear": "Errors", "Warnings", "Message".
Does anyone know a way to log a message in the Message panel with JavaScript? That would really help debugging. I know there's a way involving XPCOM, but that only works with "trusted" scripts, and scripts loaded thru html aren't trusted.

Looks fine in IE and Opera, but is designed to write into a textarea instead of the <div> if the brower is not IE4+ (why is it working in Opera?) so on Firefox you can see the ugly textarea....
Is there a way to either turn off the Javascript in Firefox so it doesn't work at all, or test specifically for that browser (it's not testing for anything but IE right now as I understand it) and put the text into an absolutely positioned element? Code:
