Is it possible to get js to load a txt file in your browser (location would be file:///C:/Documents and Settings/article.txt), grab the first line and put it in a form field with id "postingTitleField"? I've been trying to figure this out but I don't see it. I tried to google it but the best I came up with is writing to a text document, and that's not what I am looking for.
View 4 RepliesI have some code that performs differently in Opera than it does in any other browser. So I have a stylesheet specifically for opera. Is there a way to do something like this, where I check the browser, and if it's not opera, then load the default sheet, otherwise load the opera-specific css?

As of this writing, that code seems to break my page, as if it doesn't like loading a sheet based on an if/else clause.
I'm currently working on a site and need to have a small section that displays 5 or 6 headlines. The same headlines will displayed on various pages and will occassionally be updated.
The site pages are static .html in design and i'd prefer to keep it that way rather than start introducing php for such a minor part of the site.
I am wondering if there is a javascript solution to this, whereby the headlines could be loaded via a .txt / .xml document or something similar?? That way i could just manually update the file and reload it to the server and the headlines would be updated.
I guess i'm think something similar to cushyCMS but that i can implement directly.
What I mean by this is how do you load an xml document that has been inputted as a string in a form. I would've assumed it was something like this, but this doesn't seem to be working.
<html>

<script type="text/javascript">

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?
I have only started to learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript (roughly 2 weeks now). I am having a issues regarding when I submit form data to the server. I want to temporarily disable the 'submit' button while the browser is loading and then reactivate it once everything has finished loading. This was my attempt at doing this.

I have a lot of javascript functions that request information from an iframe hidden on the page. I see other sites do this, but their browser does not do the loading action (like the processing circle in Firefox). When I do it on my site, each browser shows the loading icon, as if a page was loading. Is it possible to not have this?

That is a sample link. Go down right side of page where you see three buttons: Trailers Featurettes Clips.Those return iframe information to work.
I have some Javascript which says this:
Now that is fine when the text is only one line long. Suppose it's longer? What I want to do is have Javascript give the variable contentString its text from a hosted text file in a similar manner to the way Javascript can insert more Javascript using a hosted .js file.
I illustrate what I need to do using some "dummy" javascript:
Like title says, I'm looking "Loading page" -notice when page is loading - made by Javascript. If you know Cross-browser/multi-browser example

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to upload a file from a known location on a server to a static FTP address. Now I was using Windows built in FPT client which is easy and I can create a text file which contains the FTP commands i.e open 10.10.10.10 put file1
for example, The problem is the name of the file to be uploaded changes and the ftp script is simply a DOS text file. I need to therefore ask the user for the name to the file to upload and then using this together with the FTP command (as all other infomation stays the same) to upload the file. I was thinking about creating a simple web page asking them to put the name of the file into the form hot go. It would be good if the JavaScript could then take the input from the from as the file name and then FTP this (from the source directory which always stays the same) to the destination which also always stays the same.
I have a web server built in to our Student Data system. I want to put a teacher survey form out there but can't modify the DB and have no cgi ... darn proprietary web server.
Can I use JS to save form values to a separate text file? So far the best I can do is appendData() into the current html.
On my site i use a lot of features that are unsupported by older browsers, and right now it looks pretty stupid when the features are only partially shown. So i was wondering if there's a way of making the browser look to different css files depending on which browser and version it is. For example, css3 gradient backgrounds are supported in firefox 3.6 or something, but not in 3.0. All the hacks out there is to 3.*, so it changes for the allready working 3.6 too if i hack it. I want to controll it so that i have a specific css file for the none-supporting version and lower and one for the supporting and above. I looked at a bad browser plugin (because it has some of the basic features im looking for)
View 15 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a way to select a file from a list and load it into a webpage. The page and the files are stored on a sd-card for off-line usage, I know that listing files remote dynamicly needs a scripting engine but since the sd-card is on the client side that is not possible, but I can make a list of those files when creating them.
It is intended for a datalogger on a tractor-puller, I create csv files with a bash script on the logger and for off-line viewing I use a javascript charting engine which loads the csv file, the files have the creation date as filename and I can make (and maintain) a list of files when creating them. The plan is that the we can select another data set (run) from within the browser and show that one. I have setup an example at [URL]

Is it possible using some kind of Script to get text/pictures/symbols from typed text and from a gif. file (already on the web site) to show on another place in the web site by clicking on a button.My coding is like this:

<form action="MAILTO:someone@someone.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">[code]....
By pressing "Show" I want the text typed in the form to show on the same site, and then the user should have the opportunity to also place a symbol (the gif. file) the same way as the text and to be viewed on the same site too.

I have a couple of questions regarding the loading of .js files for
the browser and would like anyone to point me wher to find the answer
(or if you know the answer and tell me will do just fine ;) )
- If I have several pages all using 'somejs.js' file this file is
shared on disk and is downloaded only once... but how about in memory,
is it also shared and just loaded once?
-Also, when are the .js files unloaded from memory?
-Can I unload at any given time a .js file from memory?
There is flash content on my page but it's not loading as it's going though final testing and I can't figure it out.

Basically, I have received Emails from people stating that my website calculators are off by a factor of 100 for anyone using the Apple Safari browser. Since, my website calculates correctly in Internet Explorer, Netscape, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome, I feel this is an Apple Safari problem. Anyway, the above code seems to work okay, but it generates the pop-up when people are using Google Chrome. Is there any way that the script can be changed so that it only pops up when loading Apple Safari?
i've designed a site using firefox as my primary browser. (note: i'm on an old mac so limited to only what i can run on 10.2.8) i tweaked it for safari, and then took the stuff on a jump drive to the library and tweaked it for IE6 on a pc.
what i need to do now is either hack the CSS for safari and ie (and eventually others once i get some feedback); or, use javascript to load the correct style sheet.
i've just spent two days--thursday and today since since 10 a.m.--trying to figure out first the js, and then the hack methods to no avail. (well, more, really over the past few weeks, but the two-day immersion has me totally fried.)
i'm reached the point where time is extremely critical. once i get this out in an acceptable form, i can spend more time on the learning curve.
