What I'm after or trying to do is simply create a script to launch a new page after a X amount of time, like a popup. But I need the new window to have the following options like no toolbar or scroll bars etc... This is the code I've been trying to manipulate for my purpose and just can't get it right meaning it doesn't work at all in fact I haven't even been able to get the timer part worked in since I couldn't get the launch part working..... I've made a web app using asp.net & vb.net and need a launch page so I don't have any toolbars or scrollbars etc....
I am using a jQuery plugin called simpledialog. It normally launches with a button click or a link click, but I want it to launch conditionally instead. I'm doing some javascript checks and if statements and if they go thru, I want to launch the pop up, without anything being clicked or anything. Essentially as soon as the browser loads the web page. I couldn't really find any plugins that support this feature, so it there maybe a workaround?
One of the features of a site I'm working on is a button similar to the Facebook "LIKE" or Twitter "Tweet" [really exciting stuff to help with, right? ]
As such I need to be able to open an iframe as a layer on the page but can't load up a framework given the weight and potential for conflicts. The goal here is to be as light as possible while also avoiding conflicts. The page is multi-part so a simple layer won't do, it has to be a full fledged iFrame with the ability to fade the underlying window and close it down while also floating over page elements, drop downs, even flash.
Colorbox-min would be an ideal solution but the dependancy kills it. I do pretty well with frameworks but on my own am a JS novice. In a world full of ready made scripts,
I am trying to launching a centered browser window via a form-button using the following code...
<button type='button' onClick="window.open('myURL','testwin','width=400, height=400, left=(screen.availWidth-400)/2, top=(screen.availHeight-400)/2'); return false"> Test button</button>
The new browser appears the correct height and width, but the left and top clauses are ignored.Am I being too ambitious trying to make this code in-line? Is there any other syntax I should use or should I give-up and call a function instead (I would rather not if I can avoid it)?I am using Firefox 3.0.17 (latest), but the same effect happens in IE7.

this may be more of an "html" issue, but I'll wing it.
i've got a multi-language site, where the home-page of each language group features a link to a popup window that offers background info on site management. the popup is fired by a javascript function, when they click the site management link. there's also a "window close" function button so they can nuke it as they please.
now, oddly, people who search for my site in the chinese language on google, are sent directly to the site management popup window, which of course, opens in their "full" browser window, and which also has no links back to the main site, because it's meant to open only as an "accessory" to the main site.
my question is this: is there any way, with Javascript, that I could determine if they arrived at this window from "off-site" (ie, a google search), and therefore offer such "off-site" visitors a link back to the principal site, a link that would be hidden for visitors who clicked the popup window from my own site?
Basically, I registered for a free board at one of the various sites because my server doesn't support .cgi scripts. I want to know if there is a way to have the data from a form on my site post to the board site -A user would fill in my form, click submit, and a new post would appear on the board site -as if they had entered it there. If you can point me in the right direction, I would be grateful. Here is my thinking.
A) I can't locate the script that they use to perform a "submit"; so I thought I might enter their <head> data (as far as xmlns, href, etc) in my <head>; that my website might call up their script files, css sheets, etc.
B)I could code my own Javascript function to send my form data to their site. If I knew how to simulate a mouseclick on someone else's site, I could have the script "click" there, paste the data, and hit the submit button. But I don't.
C) I could size their site down to the form itself and put it in a frame on my page
Option C is clearly easier, but I would prefer option A or B. I have time and will happily do the research myself; provided that I know if approach A or B is even feasible.
I'm making a fansite for a game called RuneScape and I'm a bit stuck on this part.
What I need for my website is, a page that will have the prices (min, middle, and max) of things from this [URL] or other items, which will be chosen later on.
Here are two example sites that I am wanting to ... do the same thing as them.
I was looking at the Web SQL spec on the W3C site (here)the example code
Code: function prepareDatabase(ready, error) { return openDatabase('documents', '1.0', 'Offline document storage', 5*1024*1024, function (db) {[code]....
I don't understand how/why prepareDatabase is set twice.Is there a term for this? I can't for the life of me think what it is. I know I've seen it before though.
I wondered if there was a way to blur my whole site except a popup-div when a link is clicked - just like lightbox fades out the page, just with a blur effect instead:[url]...
There are times that I am using another person's computer who has no knowledge of updating HTML and does not even know if he has the necessary programs to do the FTP.
I may see a minor problem with my site and would like to change it on the fly. What I would like to know are the answers to the following questions.
1. Is there any way to display unformated HTML within a web page without using the browsers source facility?
2. Is there a way to modify it? Maybe showing it in a form textarea.
3. Is there a way for javascript or a form to do an FTP back to the web site? This would obviously require id and password.
Is there any program out there that can scan a website for javascript errors? Just trying to fix some EXTREMELY minor problems on a very large (20,000 pages) web site...
Is it possible with javascript to retrieve somebody's Computer name when he connects to a webserver? (So the webserver receives the computername of the client).
I have a web application that has basic authentication turned on (IIS). What I would like to accomplish is detect whether user is navigating away from the site or simply going to the different page using JavaScript. I am aware that it is easy to detect where you came from (referrer), but I haven't been able to find a way to where you're going to. I did my fair amount of research online, but I couldn't find a solution for this.
However, my boss told me that he has seen a website that detects the fact that you're navigating away from your site. Does anyone know anything about this?
The next step after Grant Wagner's simple solution to my "Get computer name" thread, is to automatically add the web application's site to the list of trusted sites in IE.
Obviously, the user should get a popup first that says "Do you want to add this site?"
I've looked through the Wscript doco in MSDN, but can't find a way of manipulating this browser setting.
I'd expect it to be something like "setHomePage" - namely "addTrustedSite".
