Overriding '<a Href' With '<a OnClick' For JavaScript Function OpenWindow(URL) For Image And Link...

Jul 23, 2005

Can anyone assist me with what I am trying to do with the following
code (six different scenarios to try to make the functionality work
correctly)?

I want to always (and ONLY) display in the status bar 'Symantec
Corporation' whenever anyone mouses over (onMouseOver) my image or
link OR when one clicks while holding the left mouse down (onClick) on
the same image or link. Upon releasing the mouse (onMouseOut), the
status bar should be 'blank'. I need the link to open in a new window
via my function openWindow(URL) code.

What is happening in most of the six scenarios, is that when one
clicks the link, either the function doesn't engage, but rather the <a
href= takes effect instead OR that status bar shows
'javascript:openWindow('http://www.symantec.com/');' when one clicks
while holding the left mouse down (onClick) on the image or link.

Additionally, for only the link, I need the CSS/style to show 'red'
when one mouses over (onMouseOver) it and then change to 'blue' upon
releasing the mouse (onMouseOut).

How about integrating 'style="cursor:hand"' into the code or perhaps
setting some of the data via a <div> or <span> snippet? Code:

JQuery :: Overriding The Link Function On Certain Browsers

Aug 25, 2009

JQuery and have a problem with an expandable menu I have created for a new Wordpress theme.

With my expandable menu I am simply (slide)toggling the children <ul> by clicking the parent <li>. This should work fine but jQuery is overiding the default event for the anchors in the children resulting in me having a nice expandable menu that animates well but with its links disabled.

As far as I can tell this should work as I am targeting one level of anchor beneath the parent and not any other more deeply nested children.

The problem only applies to the followning browsers - Firefox 3.5, Safari 4, Chrome and ie 8.

It works fine in ie 6 and 7, Firefox 3 and Opera 9.

The jQuery is as follows:

The html structure is as follows:

I left the anchor details (href, title and so on) out just to make the html code a little easier to scan.

JQuery :: Convert Button OnClick To Link HRef

May 17, 2009

I have a few input buttons per page:
<input type="button" value="MyButton" onclick="location='[URL]'">
I want to convert them to:
<a href="[URL]"><span>MyButton</span></a>

How can I convert that with jquery? I try to get the onlick val but jquery or javascript seems to convert onclick to a function. I have this, but it's not quite right, I'm trying to just move the onclick data to the link, but I'd rather do it with href.
$(":button").each(function(){
var ocval = $(this).attr("onclick").val();
$(this).replaceWith("<a class="button" href="javascript:void(0);"
onclick=""+ ocval +""><span>" + $(this).val() + "</span></a>");
});

Difference In Calling Javascript In Href And Onclick Of Anchor Tag.

Jan 18, 2006

I am looking for a generic javascript function to identify the form with in which a element exists, thus developer can avoid coding like document.forms[index].submit() - where they are sure, they want the form with in which this element exists is to be submitted. This way when forms are introduced at top level the code can remain unchanged, else every form introduce above in the DOM will result in increasing the index by one.

The code is given below. While doing so i am stuck with 2 problems
P1: In the code, you can see i am giving a explicit 'break' in the code. If i don't do so the code seems to be looping. Obviously i am missing some basic.

P2: I am able to pass 'this' for anchor element by name="xy"
<a href="#" name="xy"

in its onclick function by which, in the javascript function i move up the DOM.

While i am unable to do that on the anchor element given below since this function is now on the href attribute.

<a name="xy1" href="javascript:doFormSubmit(this);">Q test</a>

Hence the script fails. Code:

Editable DIV - OnBlur Overriding OnClick Event

Feb 6, 2009

I have an editable div, when clicked displays two buttons - save and cancel. When either button is pressed the respective function takes place. The problem I'm having is with the onblur function. When a targetElement loses focus, I want to figure out which new element gained the focus - if it is the save button then I want the save function to fire. However, if it is any other element then I want the cancel function to fire.

I'm trying to figure out once an editable div is selected and the user clicks the save button, how do I determine that the save button was clicked and trigger the save function - because with the onblur method attached to the editable div any click outside the div is interpreted as a call to the onblur method, even if the save button is clicked.

document.getElementById("cancelEdit").onclick = function(){ cancelEdit(targetElement, initialContent ); };
document.getElementById("saveEdit").onclick = function(){ saveEdit(targetElement) };
targetElement.onblur = function(){
if (document.getElementById("saveEdit").onfocus){
saveEdit(targetElement);
} else { cancelEdit(targetElement, initialContent ); }
};

JQuery :: Carry The HREF Of A Link Through Function?

Nov 18, 2010

I should not be coding, to be honest, I know nothing about it ...

I have a link:

<a href="linkedfile.html">LINK</a>

I want the HREF value to be carried through my jQuery function. The function goes as follows:

User clicks link Linked icons fade out and reappear smaller at the top of the page Link HREF is followed

The new page will have the logos in the same place as they fade out too and content will appear in a frame below. However, I am clueless when it comes to Ajax and jQuery and would really like to learn, hence why I am using it. How do I carry the HREF through? Or are there better ways to do it?

Having A Link Which Runs A Js Function (acceptable To Have No Href?)

Jul 17, 2006

question: if you want a link which simply runs a js function is it acceptable to have no href? the problem with this is the cursor doesnt change when you hover over, but if you put # as the href it jumps to the top of the screen which is sometimes unacceptable. what it the best solution to this? granted you could do event handling behind the scenes and just intercept the clicks and prevent the href from going anywhere, but sometimes you just want to stick an onclick on the anchor tag!

Can I Pass The Name Of A Javascript Function To A Page Opened With An Href

May 26, 2007

I'm not sure whether or not this is possible, but I want to have control over the Javascript function that is called when a target web page is opened (ie as the onload function in its <body> tag). In other words, the calling page will have several <a href ...> tags referencing the same page, each specifying a different onload function. Is it possible to effectively pass a parameter in this way? I have not been able to find any solution to this.

Create A Link, OnClick Event Set For Some Function

Jun 23, 2006

Does anyone know how to create a link (<a> . . . </a>) with some piece
of javascript code that has the onClick event set for some function that I also wrote (not a build-in function).

I can find all sorts of samples in these disc.groups but none of them
seems to work for me.

I am focussed on Firefox, but some code that also works for IE, would
be appreciated.

BTW I know how to create elements in the html document, that is not the
problem. The problem is that I seem not te be able to set the onClick event for some created element. I tried for both a link and also for a text-element.
I can set the onClick for some built-in function like alert('Nice Day').

There are loads of examples to be found for that, and they indeed work.

Hyperlink Onclick Passes Link Value To Function?

Oct 22, 2010

I have a parent/child scenario where the child is a pop-up "control panel" with hyperlinks that control the parent page. The idea is to click a link and it changes the parent to whatever URL ...BUT... the kicker here is that the parent page is in PHP and is receiving a value from the javascript function.I have everything working EXCEPT that I can't get the value from the hyperlink that i need to pass to the PHP.Everything I fund about getting values in JS involves a "getElementby ID" type of command, but that isn't going to work here because there are several hyperlinks. I'm also trying to avoid using an array and looping through it.I know this must be a simple problem for veteran Javascripters!HTML FROM CHILD (I made the ID and Value both "2" just for testing purposes):

<a href="#" class="leftlinks" onclick="updateParent(control)" id="2" value="2">CLICK HERE</a>
JAVASCRIPT ACCEPTING THE VALUE:
function updateParent(control) {

OnClick - Show Image + Link - Displays Whenever The User Selects A Combination

Nov 14, 2010

I opted to use JavaScript & PHP (instead of Flash) to create a sort-of "t-shirt designer" -- basically, it's a gallery-type script that allows users to scroll through t-shirt styles, swap colors, and so on, prior to reaching the actual design tool. And I'm starting to regret.

It's actually working very well so far, except for one thing: I want the t-shirt option that the user selects to link the user to the design tool. The "gallery" already has an image for each possible option that displays whenever the user selects a combination, but I want to make that image is a clickable link.

I have no idea where to start -- I know next to nothing about javascript -- and to accomplish this in Flasjh I'd have to start this stupid basic thing all over again from scratch, and it would defeat the point of not using Flash in the first place, so

JQuery :: Href In Output Code Causing $getJson() Function To Try To Load Up A File With Href In Url

Jul 12, 2010

I'm using the following code (simplified version) to call a Json file, parse it and on each iteration, create a div with an ID of "tab". I'm using this with jQuery UI .tab() to create a listing with entries which have three tabs. Anyhow, the principle seems to work except that when I examine what's happening behind the scenes using Firefox console, I see that each href in the html code produced is causing the Json function to re-fire using the href as it's url target.

How do I create an email link using javascript attached to an image link?

The simpler methods I have so far been able to find only work within form elements.

I have also tried...

window.location="mailto:contact@mydomain.com"

parent.location="mailto:contact@mydomain.com"

location.href="mailto:contact@mydomain.com"

... none of which seem to work.

What's the secret? Where am I going wrong?

Image OnClick Won't Call Function?

Dec 28, 2009

I am trying to create an image viewer with javascript and CSS. Unfortunately however, the onclick events in my image tags seem to work every once in a while for a few page loads then for some reason they just stop working completely and seemingly for no reason at all (i.e. I dont change any code). I've been messing around with this for at least a couple of weeks now and cant figure it out, so it is time to hit up the forums.

Below is the code I am trying to use:

Code:

<div class="nav"><img src="images/downblue.png" name="down" height="20px" width="20px" onClick="down();" /></div>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function down() {

[Code]....

there is also an onload part in this script that doesn't execute. If I put an actual alert statement in the onclick part of the tag that will execute.

Run A Gif Animation And Random Image Function From A Html Button Onclick?

Aug 25, 2010

Trying to click (onClick) an animated gif image of an on/off switch to start a second animation which is located on a different location on the web-page (a 7-frame animation of a generator with moving parts) immediately followed by a random image selection function placing an image in a 3rd location on the page (next to the generator image). The random images are supposed to look like the result of the generator animation---the item that �pops out� of the generator.

We thought the process to achieve this would be an �OnClick� on the on/off switch-animated-gif to start two javascript functions (generato animation function & random image function). To further complicate matters, we are doing this website in iWeb. We�re using iWeb SEO Tool to add the javascript to the header and HTML snippet in iWeb to place the HTML code. Not sure we�re actually doing the snippet right though---is it supposed to relate to the images---or is it separate? When the gifs are place on the iweb page, they work in the browser upon page load---the �on-click� & the random image function are NOT working...so we know we�ve done something(s) wrong.

We�re thinking that we�re probably missing some code that describes where the 3 different image-spots are on the page (image #1 is the on/off switch gif, image#2 is the generator gif, image#3 is the generator output.png)....or just aren�t coding the string of functions correctly---or maybe our strategy for achieving this is just no correct (?).Here is the code we have tried that didn�t work.

<!-- Hide script from old browsers

Function Change() - On Link Click, Image Changes From One To Another.?

Mar 6, 2009

I found it difficult trying to put a short and concise title for you all to understand.My problem: Basically, I have an image (its a + sign), when clicked I need this + to change to a -. When clicked again, it needs to return to being a +.Below is the current code I am using:

<script type="text/javascript">
imgs=Array("positive.PNG","negative.PNG");
var x=0;[code]....

This code works fine if I just have one instance of it. But If I want multiple ones, one stops working and the other functions instead.
I tried the following:

<p><a href="#"><img src="positive.PNG" alt="" onmousedown="change()" id="test" border=0></a></p>
<p><a href="#"><img src="positive.PNG" alt="" onmousedown="change()" id="test" border=0></a></p>

This causes the problem I explained above.I also tried specifying an id in the function change() syntax, but I couldn't get that to work.
