Open New Window And Simulate Key Press Events?

May 8, 2010

I have been trying to merge two command scripts, and have gotten nothing. I am trying to use javascript commands to open a new window on Firefox, and on that opened window simulate a Tab key press.

This is the full script that I have come up with so far to open two windows, with the websites being yahoo.com and google.com. ***To fully help me please copy this script, paste to Notepad, save as a .html file and run it on Firefox. You will notice a "Open Windows" button will appear. When you click on it the windows will open:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function open_win() {
window.open("http://yahoo.com", "newwindow1")
window.open("http://google.com", "newwindow2")

[Code]...

What I want to do is merge these two scripts, so that when I press that "Open Windows" button, the new window opens and the Tab key press is immediately simulated to move to the next field on the webpage.

I understand that JavaScript is event driven, meaning some event has to occur before you can make things happen. The user must push a key or click somewhere on the page before you can relaly do anything with an event. I want to have the clicking of the "Open Windows" button, that first triggering event which opens a window and simulates the tab key press on that window.

Key Press Events In IE?

May 2, 2009

I'm doing a tutorial from a book to drag and drop elements on a page into a shopping cart. I had everything working fine in IE until I added the function for key presses. What it should do is when 1 is clicked, the first item is moved into the cart, and if I press 1 again the item goes back to where it started.

The function that's giving me problems is keyDrag (at the bottom). I included the other functions in case you need to see them because keyDrag calls them. The error I'm getting in IE is "object expected" and it's at the line marked below in the keyDrag function.

What happens when I press 1 is the item that's supposed to go to the cart appears at the cursor as if I clicked and dragged it. But if I drag it manually into the cart, and then press 1, it will snap back to its original place without problems.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
if(isNS) document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN | Event.MOUSEMOVE | Event.MOUSEUP);
document.onmousedown = grabIt;
document.onmousemove = moveIt;
document.onmouseup = dropIt;

[Code]...

Function On Back Button Press Of The Brower Window?

Sep 22, 2010

We have an application where we page 1 has a submit button. As soon as this button is pressed, button would be disabled and new resulting page would be displayed. Now what is observed here is, when the user clicks the back button, page 1 is displayed back, but sometimes the submit button is still disabled.

I was asked to work on fixing this, and I also need to consider several test cases for testing this function. So what I did for this is, on <body> elements onload() event, I called a function which would enable the button, if disabled by anymeans. But on clicking back button, I found that onload() event of <body> element is not called. Why is this happening? Should there be any other event to be considered for handling this.

Another usecase, which I need to consider here is restricting invalid user agents. We have some logic internally to decide if the browser is a valid one or not. For testing this, I created my own user agent using UserAgent switcher plugin and invoked the app and it worked fine.

But, say I start with a valid user agent, click submit (at this point, button is disabled) and I navigate to some other screen and at this point, I change to invalid user agent and click back button, I should still get my submit button enabled back.

Child Pop Up Race Condition Using Window.open Need To Detect Window.onload

Nov 22, 2011

I am trying to pop up a window and then do stuff(set flags) when the content of the new window is done loading. For this I am trying to detect the window.onload of the pop-up child window but so far I am unsuccessful. I believe my problem is that the URL of child window is on different domain, than the one of the opener(parent) so that the window.onload is not being called. Though this may change, at the moment I do not have access to the code for the page I'm opening up in the pop-up. Im pretty new to web development.

Need To Customize The Size Of The Window.open Window For Different Links

Jul 23, 2005

I've got this row of images (in the end there will be more rows of pics
as well). When a user clicks on the image, I want a new window to open
with a larger version of the image. I want that new window to be
customized to the size of the new larger image. Also, when users go
back to see other images in their larger size, I want the new window
(assuming they never closed the first one) to come back to the front.

I've only gotten as far as getting the larger images to open in a new
window at a set size in the function. I thought I could just make
specific scripts for each image, but that would be cumbersome to say
the least....

JQuery :: Fire Off Events On Another Window?

Sep 21, 2011

I have used window.open to save a ref to the window which I want to fire off events on. I am combining this to do the following.

wref = window.open(url);
var e = wref.$.Event('keydown', {keyCode: 70});
wref.$('#elem').keydown(function(e) {

[code]....

The thing which happends is that the alert comes twice. One time with the keykode 18, and one time with undefined in the window I am running the script. Also nothing comes up in the textbox where I am triggering the event.What I want to achieve is to fill in text in the input textbox and fire off all the related events in the opened window such as YUI autocomplete and others.

Open.window Reloads Parent Window

Jul 23, 2005

When I do the following line in Netscape, the popup loads as it should,
but the parent window usually, but not always, reloads as well.

<a href="#"
onClick="window.open('/cgi-bin/displayimage.cgi?/store/demo/image.jpg&YOUR+PRODUCT%27<b>S+NAME+GOES',
'fullimage', 'WIDTH=420,HEIGHT=405,status=0')">

The original window should not reload, but is, and I have tested it with
both version 4.72 and 7.02, and they both do it. IE does not do it.
The big problem is that the original window has security built into it
so it must be called from the right referring url, but when Netscape
reloads this parent window, it neglects to send the original referring
url, so the original page is replaced with an error page as soon as the
above link is clicked.

Is there any workaround for this, where either Netscape will not reload
the original page, or if it does, at least not lose the referring url?

Window.open Affecting Parent Window

Jul 23, 2005

I'm using window.open to create a secondary window, and everything is
working fine with that. My problem is that as soon as that window is
opened, the parent window scrolls to the top of its page. So when the
user closes the secondary window, they've lost their place in the
parent document.

Is this normal behavior for window.open? Is there a quick way to
prevent it, or is it more likely a problem with my Javascript?
