MSIE 6.0 Does Not Support Protyping With Objects Created With Document.createElement.
Oct 3, 2006
MSIE 6.0 apparently does not support protyping with objects created
with document.createElement, while Firefox does.
I tested it by typing it into the adress bar, but it also appears to be
the case for code embedded in a HTML document. Here's a simple segment
of code to demonstrate the difference:
javascript: function myObj(){};myObj.prototype =
document.createElement('a'); var x = document.createElement('a'); var
y=new myObj(); var z= new Object(); alert(x.href) /*blank in both FF &
MSIE6 */; alert(y.href) /* blank in FF but 'undefined' in MSIE6 */;
alert(z.href) /* 'undefined' in both FF & MSIE6 */;
I wonder why that is (apart from the fact that MSIE implements JScript
and not javascript), and can anyone tell me which of both browsers is
complient with W3C standards?

I'm trying to check to see if a dynamically created element exists BEFORE creating another element of the same exact type...but my if statement at the beginning is not working and another element is just created.
function writeElement(id) {
if(document.getElementsByTagName('transElement')[0]) {
var id = id;
killElement();
writeElement(id);
}
var id = id;
var transElement = document.createElement('transElement');
[Code]...

My code is this:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html lang="EN" dir="ltr" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
[Code]...
In a few words it creates a button which when it is clicked it launches the add_text script. Add text script creates a text element for a form and puts a random value for the textbox. Textbox also takes a name which is of array type name="txt[]". Also form has the post method.
When I press e.g. 4 times the add text field button 4 text boxes are added. But when I click the submit button I get a result of 1 instead of 4 when the print count($txt) is executed. Copy paste the code to see the problem.

I have a page which uses JavaScript to create form elements using
document.createElement('input'), etc.. Both Firefox and IE have no
problem accomplishing this and when the form is submitted all the
information is passed correctly.
I am now trying to validate the form using JavaScript when the page is
submitted. Firefox has no problems with this but IE returns
'document.form1.*THE FORM FIELD*.value is null or not an object' for
the elements that were created using document.createElement when I try
get their value using 'document.form1.*THE FORM FIELD*.value'. How do
I get the value of the form elements that were created using
JavaSCript?

I try the following in Firefox and other modern browsers:
window.addEventListener('load', function() {
document.title = CSS.getClass('fontSize');
var div = document.createElement('div');
document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].appendChild(div);
alert(div);
alert(div.style)
}, true);
It works fine in normal HTML mode (Content-type: text/html), but in
XHTML mode it alerts "[object Element]" instead of "[object
HTMLDivElement]" and the second alert shows "undefined" instead of
"[object CSSStyleDeclaration]". So I can't reach the style declaration
which is important for me. Strict mode makes trouble again and again,
the biggest bug: document.write does not work:

I've been creating a script that dynamic loads js files.
but after creating that script, (and i use
document.createElement('script');) in that function.. i've realise that
the code that shows up in the browser is:
<script type="text/javascript">
should it be
<script type="text/javascript" />
or
<script type="text/javascript"></script>

I'm experimenting with creating SVG dynamically and am finding that document.createElement is changing the case of the tags I input. This is breaking because, apparently SVG tags are case sensitive. For example, when I try to create a linear gradient element like so:var grad = document.createElement('linearGradient');what appears in the view source is:<lineargradient ...> (Note the lowercase "g")The tag doesn't work if the "G" is lowercase. Is there any way to specify in the <html> tag (or somewhere else) that the document should preserve tag case?

So i'm trying to create an onchange within a createElement of a textfield and it doesnt work, this is what i'm trying:
Code:
inputEl.onchange=function(){this.value=$('ship_pueblo').innerHTML = $('stateSelect').value || '';};
My entire working code without the onchange i'm trying to pull of is:
Code:
// Create the Input Field
var inputEl = document.createElement("<INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='state'>")
inputEl.setAttribute("id", "stateSelect");
inputEl.setAttribute("type", "text");

Why doesn't the following code work:
<script type='text/javascript'>
var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
canvas.width = 1400;
canvas.height = 700;
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
context.strokeRect(10, 10, 50, 50);
context.stroke();
</script>

I'm using the document.createElement method to add dynamic table and from elements to a page, but I'm running into a problem where I'm adding 2 objects to 1 cell. The two of them combined are not wider than the cell, but they won't display next to each other, they're always on their own lines and I can't figure out why...
HTML Code:
var hiddenElement = document.createElement('input');
hiddenElement.setAttribute('type', 'text');
hiddenElement.style.cssText = 'width: 100%; display: none;';
[Code]....
The text input (hiddenElement) should fill 1 line of the cell, but then the two buttons (createButton and cancelButton) should both sit on the line below it, but the cancelButton insists on siting on it's own line below the creatButton, and I can't figure out why.
(I know they have their display set to none, that's being set to block by a function, which is how I know they're all on their own line)

I am attempting to create an element (to be added later to the document DOM) using createElement.My test case is just:document.createElement("<p>Hello World</p>");My error console shows the following error:

I've written the following small feature test.
[Code].....
I want to remove 'div' before returning the function. Testing in IE something like div.parentNode.removeChild(div); will fail. If I look in the dom 'div's parentNode is null, so that explains that. It needs to be appended to something first I guess.

However, I was wondering - I realize there does not seem to be a "standard" way to do this (without additional libraries), but is there any "hacky" method that can be used to get XPath support in IE? What I mean is for parsing the loaded HTML document.

I've seen lots of examples of invoking the getElementById and they always are given as a method of the document object. That is, they always show something like:
Code:
var theElement = document.getElementById("Fred");
But what I'd really like to do is to get an element from the document, but starting at a particular element in the hierarchy of the document.
For example, suppose I have two forms, form1 and form2, and they both have elements in them named "Fred" (and, yes, I know I shouldn't do that). But what I'd really like to do is something like:
Code:
var theElement = form1Element.getElementById("Fred");
assuming that I've already somehow retrieved the form1Element.
But Javascript reports to me that getElementById is not a method of form1Element. And the fact that every example I've ever seen of getElementById invokes it as a method of document would seem to bear that out. The thing is, on the microsoft site it actually shows the generic form of the method as:
Code:
object.getElementById(iD)
Which would seem to imply that it's more generic than just being a strictly document method, that perhaps it's intended to be a method of at least some additional HTML objects. Since that doesn't seem to be the case, how might I go about doing what I'd like to d, which is find the occurrence of the element, by its ID, but only within a particular section of the document hierarchy?

I have an IFrame whose document is created completely by Javascript code at
runtime. The document in the IFrame accesses Javascript functions in the
top level document. This works fine most of the time. But every now and
then, when I hit the back button, the browser suddenly thinks the Javascript
created document in the IFrame is not from the same domain as the topmost
document, and therefore I start getting "permission denied" errors when I
try to access the top level document's Javascript functions.
If I look at the IFrame document's properties (Mozilla->This Frame->View
Info), it shows the expected URL with a domain name that matches the top
level document.

I use the following code to add a "click" behaviour to an element:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#element_id").click (function(){
...... do something ....
[Code]....
Part of the node I clone is the element from the first piece of code I quoted. The addRowJob function also changed the ID of every element in the node I cloned. This way all IDs remain unique. Lets say the element in question has the ID "#element_id". Now I clone the node (which includes the element) and the cloned element gets its ID changed to "#element_id_new".
Of course I now want this newly append element ("#element_id_new") to have a click event attached to, but even if extend my $(document).ready(function() to:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#element_id").click (function(){
...... do something ....
});
[Code].....
I simply doesn't work for the appended element.
My guess is that the $(document).ready(function(){ only fires when the document is finished loading. At this stage there is no element with the ID "#element_id_new" and therefore the click event can't be attached to the element. Makes senses...
But how do I get this click event attached to the newly appended element with the ID "#element_id_new"?
