Modifying HTML Table Through DOM
Jul 20, 2005
The basic concept is a music playlist that I'm trying to write as a
table inside a div.
I have Song and Playlist 'classes'. The Song class has a Write()
method, as does the Playlist.
The Song.Write() boils down to this:
var tr = document.createElement("TR");
var td = document.createElement("TD");
tr.id = this.ID;
tr.appendChild(td);
td.innerText = this.Artist + ' - ' + this.Title;
td.onclick = function() {top.playSong(this.parentElement.id);}
return tr;
The Playlist.Write() call is essentially this:
// this.songs is an Array of Song objects
for (var x = 0; x < this.songs.length; x++) {
playlistTable.appendChild(this.songs[x].Write());
}
When I attempt to call playlistTable.appendChild() after creating the
table via document.createElement("Table"), everything works fine,
except I have no way to add the table to my document, since the div I
want it in won't believe that appendChild() is a valid method. If I
put the table in the div as a <TABLE>, and then try to append to that,
the *table* doesn't accept appendChild() as valid. Specifically, I get
an 'Invalid argument' error when calling either.

I have a problem with returning html data from an ajax request. I have php method which is called via ajax and returns a long html string which consists of multiple tables, each table represents one question in a questionnaire. They display fine. I then have a button which calls a second php method that returns one individual table - identical in structure to the multiple tables that were returned previously. However,when displayed,the new table has the an inline style "display:block;" and so it screws up the way it looks. I have, at no point, declared this additional style anywhere in my code. Even if I do add an inline style of "display:table;" to the returned html, it is overwritten in the output html - so it is clearly being done by javascript.

I am trying to add some HTML into a <p> element by using an AJAX request that gets a txt file with my HTML in it. That code works fine but the problem I get is that I need to enter in the path to the file dynamically. I guess I could use PHP on the server for this but I am not sure how (im not too good with PHP yet, but it is installed on my server). C# would work too as I have .NET configured as well (but again I dont know it very well).[code]I would like to replace the "linkHere" with the file path attribute I am grabbing from an XML file.I am doing that like this:$(this).attr('filePath').substr(3).replace("\","/")+$ 9this).attr('label');this works fine to make the path correctly but I need a way to inject this into the HTML/txt file to replace the "linkHere".I have an <img>with an onclick event that calls a function I made to do all this.

I have written some JavaScript that I can use to remove a table row from a table. If I have the table:
[Code]...
I also have JavaScript that will add a row to the same table. I've found that if I add a bunch of rows, when I delete one, there is a small amount of whitespace added between the permanent row and the others. It seems like while the row is removed, some remnants of it remain. Is there a way to get rid of it completely?

On the time sheet page i have created a years worth of entries in the
database for a user so that they may create entries ahead of time(for
holidays etc.).
My problem is that when i load the page, i display the current month
for that user and it displays:
Date Month Day TimeInMorning TimeIn Evening etc..
What i would like is that a user may update any field and click on a
save button which will update the field(s) that they have changed. I
ahve attempted in javascript to do this but i am failing.

My program builds several tables using inner HTML. All the tables are displayed only when the program terminates. How can I make it display one table at a time and then wait for a click before displaying the next table?

New to this, worked through the w3c tutorials and am really fascinated by some of the concepts. I'm only familiar with html, css, js (basics), so am trying to keep things as simple as I can for this.
For simplicity I'll use books.xml with a listing of books. Each book has a <title><author><year><price> and <image> element. The images are stored in a folder called "images" a path is listed in the xml document.
Using js and an array I can loop through the xml file and have it extract each node into a table, if I mouseOver a ROW in the table, it displays that listing in a DIV above and I would like it to display the image/thumbnail for that particular listing within another div called thumbnail which is in the same location regardless of which listing you mouseOver.
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
[Code]....
So the way this looks is there's a grey div. At the top it says listing, and when the body loads it lists the [0] first entry from the array. To the right of this is a small div called thumbnail that is empty and I would like it to load the relevant image from the path in the <image> tag in the xml file.
Below the listing is a table with 4 columns (title, genre, price, image) and an equal number of rows to the number of listings in the xml file. Under the "image" column it just shows the path to the image.
So how do I tie the empty thumbnail div to the listing so it'll just add the path from the xml <image> tag into a <img src="pathnamefromxmldocument">

I am trying to create a tree table (javascript code was adopted from
online source) but the rowspan in td tag does not work well when I
toggle the rows. Here is the sample code, notice the row "4" should be
in the Type 1 section (click on the arrow and expand it, it will
display correctly), but when it is collapsed, it is pushed downwards to
Type 2 section. Could not figure out what is the reason. Any ideas? Code:

I want to create a HTML Table and correspondingly have 2 buttons. One would be add button and other would be remove button. I have few text boxes where I will fill the data and later on clicking Add these text boxes details would be added to the Table. I am using javascript code to handle the event (on click event handler) Similarly I wanted to delete an entry from the table. This is where I am having a problem. The requirement is: In the table if I click on any row I want that row to be highlighted. I can use any color to highlight the row. Then on clicking Remove Button I want to delete that row that is highlighted. I am unable to solve this as I dont know what event handler to use to perform this action and also how to code for this. I am not sure about the events the HTML table can handle and how the selected row can be deleted.

I have a question about iterating through an HTML table with jQuery.
I have a table that I populate with AJAX and only stores the data. However I would like to now stylize each cell according to the data that is inside and its position in the table.
I have come up with something like this to iterate through each row and cell
Code:
I am wondering now, how do I reference the very first column once I am inside the inner .each() loop? The very first column of this row contains information on how to stylize this cell.

I tried to add links to open local xml files in browser in a dynamic table cells. I tried all ways but I think I miss something. I can open them without table just by document.write(xmlfile location).
Here is my code.
function showResultsTable(searched, srchedname) {
// get the reference for the body
var mybody = document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
// creates a <table> element and a <tbody> element
mytable = document.createElement("table");
mytable.setAttribute('id', 'resulttable');
mytablebody = document.createElement("tbody");
// creating all cells
var mycurrent_cell = new Array();
for(var j = 0; j < srchedname.length; j++) {
// creates a <tr> element
mycurrent_row = document.createElement("tr");
mycurrent_cell[0] = document.createElement("td");
currenttext = document.createTextNode(j);
mycurrent_cell[0].appendChild(currenttext);
mycurrent_row.appendChild(mycurrent_cell[0]);
mycurrent_cell[1] = document.createElement("td");
link = document.createElement("a");
link.name = ""+srchedname[j]);
link.href = "C:\AAA\TestCasesList.xml";
mycurrent_cell[1].appendChild(link);
mycurrent_row.appendChild(mycurrent_cell[1]);
mycurrent_cell[2] = document.createElement("td");
currenttext = document.createTextNode(searched[j]);
mycurrent_cell[2].appendChild(currenttext);
mycurrent_row.appendChild(mycurrent_cell[2]);
// appends the row <tr> into <tbody>
mytablebody.appendChild(mycurrent_row);
}
// appends <tbody> into <table>
mytable.appendChild(mytablebody);
// appends <table> into <body>
mybody.appendChild(mytable);
// sets the border attribute of mytable to 2;
mytable.setAttribute("border", "2");
}
