Multiple AttachEvent On Document?

Oct 26, 2006

Does anyone know of a way to attach multiple events to the document element?

I have a class that when initiated attaches events to the element it effects but also attaches an event to the document element.

If my class is declared more then once, only one of the classes will be effected by the event (on the document element) where as I need both.

this.addEvent = function(obj, type, fn )
{
if(obj.attachEvent)
{
obj['e'+type+fn] = fn;
obj[type+fn] = function()
{
obj['e'+type+fn]( window.event );
}
obj.attachEvent( 'on'+type, obj[type+fn] );
}
else
obj.addEventListener( type, fn, false );
}

I presume it works fine on Firefox because addEventListening allows multiple assignments where as attachEvent doesn't.

Any Need For AddEventListener() And AttachEvent() At All?

Nov 16, 2006

Today I have been testing the event models from Netscape 4.8 and IE 4
to the current crop of browsers. I'd like to write a small event
library similar in purpose to the Yahoo! UI event library but with less
features and code. The Yahoo! event library is one of the best
libraries in YUI but it still seems to me to have some confused
code...that or I'm still confused.

The Yahoo! UI library focuses on using addEventListener and
attachEvent. However, due to the click and dblclick bugs in Safari a
long legacy event workaround is included to use a Netscape4-type event
model for Safari. Something like this

var listeners = [function(event){}, function(event){}];
document.getElementById('blue').onmouseover = function(event) {
for (var i=0; i<listeners.length; i++) {
listeners[i](event);
}
};

With this above example, multiple handler functions can be fired for a
single event. I imagine that this is an old trick that has been around
for a long time, yes?

With all the new browsers I tested with this legacy workaround, the
listener handlers can use event.stopPropogation() or
event.cancelBubble=true and they work as desired. The handler functions
can also use event.preventDefault() and event.returnValue=false and
they too work. These seem to work because the event object passed to
the handlers is a modern event object and not one from Netscape4.

My question is, if Safari needs this legacy workaround, and the legacy
workaround seems to work in all the browsers that have addEventListener
or attachEvent, then why bother with the addEventListener and
attachEvent functions at all? Why not just use the legacy way for all
browsers and all type of events.?

Dynamic Variables In AttachEvent

Jan 24, 2007

I am trying to write a loop that will add 10 divs to the screen. Each
div will have an onclick event. The function that will be called
onclick requires a parameter. That parameter is dynamic based on the
index of the loop. In Firefox this is no problem. However in IE I get
some results that I wouldn't expect.

Here is my code:

for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
var linename = jsonObj.lines[i].line;
var childcountid = jsonObj.lines[i].childcount;
var lineid = jsonObj.lines[i].lineid;

var newdiv = document.createElement('div');
newdiv.setAttribute("id","main" + i);
if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")
{
//************ this is the problem area
*****************
newspan.attachEvent("onclick", function() {getCategories('main' +
i)});
}
else
{
newspan.setAttribute("onclick", "getCategories('main" + i + "')");
}
document.getElementById('container').appendChild(n ewdiv);
}

What happens is when the element is clicked the parameter being passed
to getCategories is always 'main9' IE always grabs the current value
of i, not the value of i at the stage of the loop that attachEvent was
called.....

Compatibility - AttachEvent Vs AddEventListener Vs Other?

Mar 17, 2003

As I understand it so far:

element.attachEvent()
IE 5+ for PC

element.addEventListener()
Gecko, KHTML

element.event
NS3+, IE4+, dunno about opera or others

Since I'm only concerned with attaching a single event and don't care about bubbling/capturing, am I best off not using the old style of event registering to assure maxium compatibility?

Window.attachEvent - Get 'Object Doesn't Support This Property Or Method' - In IE8

I have a cross domain iframe resizing script (using postMessage) that works perfectly in Chrome, FF, Safari and IE9 - browsers that use addEventListener I'm trying to get it to work in IE8 by adding what I thought was the right language for attachEvent, but it's not working in IE8 - I just get 'Object doesn't support this property or method' - again just in IE8.

JQuery :: Multiple Document Ready(s) And Noconflict?

Feb 23, 2010

I'm having trouble using jquery with Rails. I know there are a few plug-in solutions but I am more designer than developer and the rest of my team isn't excited about changing to a new plug-in midstream.I want to be able to write my jquery and be able to have the least impact on existing code. This means that I have to use the noconflict method. Originally I was trying to use Rails to write all my jQuery into one document ready statement but I recently found out you can have more than oneNow my problem is that my jQuery variable isn't always ready byt the time my document ready function runs. For example:

var $j = {};
$j = jQuery.noConflict(true);
$j(document).ready(function(){

AttachEvent - Send Data Back To The Parent Page To Create New Table Rows

Jan 13, 2009

A page I'm working on lets users open a new window, which in turn lets them send data back to the parent page to create new table rows, cells, links, etc. One of the links created is "delete", so it should delete the row that the delete link belongs to when clicked on. I can do this no problem in ff using the setAttribute('onclick',onClickEvent), but can't do this in IE. I'll show some code to make this easier to understand....

JQuery :: Calling Functions Between Multiple Document Ready Events?

May 29, 2009

I know that you can have more than on document ready event without difficulty. i.e.

$(function(){
// document ready 1
});[code]....

The question I have is, is there any way for them to call functions from one to the other? The following does not work:

$(function(){
function displayMessage(){ alert('hello world'); };
});
$(function(){
displayMessage();
});

This invokes a js error complaining that displayMessage() is not defined.

Building SVG Document Using DOM Interface Inside HTML Document

Mar 17, 2007

Normally an SVG document is loaded/parsed/interpreted inside an HTML
document using an 'object' (or 'embed') element, although there are
supposedly other ways too. The problem is, the SVG document must be
static this way.

I want to use the DOM interface to build SVG dynamically inside an HTML
document. I am guessing I can build it inside HTML within an 'object' (or
maybe 'iframe'?) element.

My intentions/goals:

In Javascript, I construct an object 'embedSVG' which has properties and
methods for creating valid SVG elements and setting their attributes and
attribute values.

During construction, the SVG document is created with its root element.
During debugging in FF 2.0 (I'll work on an MSIE-compatible format later),
I am using the Mozilla DOM Inspector and comparing nodes when the
'object' element is loading a valid external SVG document, and when I am
appending the child representing the SVG document created by the DOM
functions.

However the child node (#document) does not specify 'svg' as the root
element, but instead 'HTML'. Something is not working.

Here is the relevant code in 'ScriptTest.html' which is the HTML in which
the SVG is supposed to be embedded. Below it is the relevant code for
'svglib.js' which is supposed to contain code for building the SVG
dynamically.

What this code is supposed to do is load the HTML page and execute the
anonymous script, and draw a navy blue-bordered yellow rectangle on a
blank page. This is similar to the example in the SVG 1.1 W3C
Recommendation on page 202 of the 719-page PDF.

I am getting an exception when embedSVG object placeInHTML() method is
called: NS_ERROR_DOM_HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR. I find in DOM Inspector in
spite of or after the exception that a document is placed as a child of
the object element, but it is HTML, with a default 'head', 'title',
'body' elements placed.

Where am I blowing it?

Javascript Document History - Is It Possible To Know The Previously Viewed Document?

Determine what the previous page was that the user was viewing, even if the user arrived at my site by through the use of a browser function (history, location bar, refresh, etc.). Is this possible?

I'm not wuite sure how document.history functions - what degree of privacy is given to the user and to what extent can web pages get URLs from the user's history?

Document But When Using The Object Onmousemove It Seems To Run The Code Even If The Mouse Is Still Over Then Document

Dec 6, 2010

I am trying to make a function run if the mouse is moved over the document but when using the object onmousemove it seems to run the code even if the mouse is still over then document, how can I make it so if the mouse is over the document but isn't moving then don't run the code but once the mouse moves run the code? This is the code I made to handle the mouse move collections.

[Code]..

But with this code it runs even when the user doesn't move their mouse and the notification box pops up every second as the code seems to think a still mouse is a moving mouse.

I was thinking about having a run once system but that would mean if the mouse moves it runs once and then if the mouse moves again the code will not run as it has already ran before.

Document.onkeyPRESS || Document.onkeyDOWN Dynamically?

Oct 26, 2007

I want to switch a big function from a document.onkeydown = function to a document.onkeypress = function, or vice versa depeding on the type of browser.

However it is quite a big function so it's pretty much out of the question to have it appear in full twice.

Any ideas how to change the target event (onkeydown/onkeypress) without writing the whole function twice?

Document.write() - Trap Changes Done To The Document Object

Jun 5, 2006

I have been searching for a way to trap changes done to the document object (mainly by the function document.write();).

Example of code that doesn't work:

function myFunction() {
ed.document.onchange = doFunction(document.body.innerHTML);
ed.document.open();
ed.document.write('Hello');
ed.document.close();
}

function do_function(body) {
alert(body);
}

It only fires when the page loads, not when I change the text. You are free to use any event that works, but i think onchange was the one to fit this problem. The alert will write the initialpage, but will never write the tekst 'Hello' that is the new change.

Any javagurus out there know a solution to pick up any fired events triggered by document.write();

Line Using Document.write() And Document.writeln()?

Jul 16, 2010

I am trying to write a bunch of text onto a new document using document.write() and somehow need to format it to include line breaks.

For example:
Code JavaScript:
document.write(Line 1);
document.write(Line 2);

I have tried including and it does not work. I have also tried document.writeln() and that also does not work. From what I have found on the Internet, one (if not both) of those methods should have worked.
