Passing 'this' To Anonymous Function In Event Listener

Jun 10, 2010

I'm working with nested functions and trying to pass a 'this' value to an anonymous being used in an assignment for an event listener.So, this should plop a button inside our DIV and when clicked I'd like it to run the alert-ding; unfortunately it seems to want to run the function as defined under the buttons object which doesn't work out too well.

I need to pass the 'id' variable from the event listener to the callback function, 'moveObject'. The moveObject function needs to know the id of which element it should act upon. How can I pass this variable?

Passing Anonymous Function From SetTimeout() - IE Doesn't Like - FF Does

Jun 6, 2009

I did search the forums but couldn't seem to find anything on this specifically. I basically need to pass a key event and a 'name' to nameCheck() after 3 seconds. This works fine in Firefox but Internet Explorer gives the error: Member not found. I'm more of a PHP guy than a JS one

<input type="text" onkeyup="nameCheckTimer(this.value, event)" value="" />
function nameCheckTimer(name, evt) {
setTimeout(function(){return nameCheck(name,evt)}, 3000);
}
function nameCheck(name, evt) {
//need name and the key event to be available here. I have code to handle the key codes which works fine
}

Create An Anonymous Function For Onchange Event Of File Field?

Feb 28, 2010

I am trying to create an anonymous function for onchange event of file field, so that when a file is selected, the covering text field gets that value. I know how to accomplish this by adding onchange="", but I'd prefer not do that. The code that I have almost works, except that the function in the for loop can't call on the "i" variable that the loop uses.

for( i = 0; i < source.length; i++) {
source[i].onchange = function() {
name[i].value = this.value;
}
}

Event Listener - Check And Activate Function?

Jun 28, 2010

Event Listener. From what I understand it will check all events until a defined event happens, such as rollover of a certain image, and then it activates a function? What I want to do is use this so that when I rollover a element such as below:
<img src="img url" alt="this is a tooltip" tooltip="true" />
I want it to pass the obj to a function which then runs, and then once the mouse of not over that element it will activate another function passing the previous object to this function.

Although an element such as the example below would not activate these functions:
<img src="img url" alt="this is a tooltip"/>
As the tooltip tag does not exist or has the value of false. Also, wouldn't this use a lot of resources as it checks every event which the mouse passes over?

Having Trouble With Event Listener: Detect Iframe Close Event Fromparent

Apr 3, 2007

I have an iframe that includes a button:
<input type="button" value="close this window" onclick="window.close();" >

I would like to detect the iframe close event from the parent window, I
was using this code but I did something wrong because the temp function
is fired every time the parent page loads:

function temp(){
alert('the iframe was closed');
}
function setup(){
var myIFrame = document.getElementById("iframe1");
if (myIFrame.addEventListener) {
myIFrame.addEventListener('onclose', temp(), false);
}else if (myIFrame.attachEvent) {
myIFrame.attachEvent ('onclose',temp);
}else{
myIFrame.onclose=temp();
}
}
window.onload=setup;

Event Listener

Aug 24, 2007

I've got a really simple function I want to create, a confirm delete function that is applied to all links with a class of delete. A confirm message appears when the link is clicked, returning false if cancel is clicked.

This is my code and for whatever reason that I just don't get (coz I'm a bit confused by all this stuff), clicking cancel when the confirm message appears seems to return true regardless. Code:

How To Create An Event Listener?

Jan 5, 2007

How do I add an event listener to a few text boxes that prevents the user from typing anything but digits. I use the numbers entered in the text boxes in calculations afterwards so I don't want the user to enter "one" instead of "1" etc... Also, the range of possible numbers is too big for a drop down menu.

Add Event Listener - Not Working In IE6

Mar 22, 2007

I'm writing a custom script to collect attributes from links and concatenate them to pass as a string to another function. I'm using a readily-available 'addListener' function so the click event doesn't overwrite others on the page. All this seems to be working in all browsers except IE6, and I suspect it may have something to do with event bubbling. Can anyone see my errors and any other ways I could improve the script? Code:

Can't Get Event Listener To Work

Sep 4, 2010

I'm trying to use the addEventListener function to set an event listener but I don't understand why it won't work. Before i was using another method to handle events, but I needed more control over which event handlers get run and when.

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function runMe(){

[Code]....

I'm using Google Chrome, but it won't work in Firefox either. Obviously it won't work in IE, since IE doesn't support that method. The script gives no errors at all. The runMe() function does get executed, I tested this with alerts.

Object Method As Event Listener

Oct 16, 2006

I want each instance of an object to be able to listen for input events.
When the event occurs, a method of the object should be called, such
that "this" is in scope and refers to the object instance.

Is this possible? Example:

function MyConstructor(element)
{
//element is some HTML element
this.addListeners(element);

this.foo = "Bar";

return this;
}

MyConstructor.prototype.addListeners = function(element)
{
element.addEventListener("keypress", this.doSomething, true);
}

MyConstructor.prototype.doSomething = function(e)
{

alert(this.foo.length); //Error: this.foo has no properties

alert(this);
//shows the HTML element that triggered the event
}

Is there any way to get "this" to refer to the object in the event listener?

Dynamically Add (OnKeyDown) Event Listener

May 9, 2011

I have a form with many, many, many 'input type="text"' elements in it. I'd like to be able to dynamically add an 'onKeyDown' event listener. Here's what I've got, so far (I know it's wrong.)

Code:
function addEventToElement(formName,tagName,typeName,eventName,eventAction) {
thisForm = (typeof formName == 'string') ? document.getElementById(formName) : '' ;
thisTag = (typeof tagName == 'string') ? tagName : '' ;
thisType = (typeof typeName == 'string') ? typeName : '' ;
thisEvent = (typeof eventName == 'string') ? eventName : '' ;
thisAction = (typeof eventAction == 'string') ? eventAction : '' ;
if(thisForm != "") { // If elements are in a form, make sure ONLY those elements are affected
elem = new Array(); elem = thisForm.getElementsByTagName(thisTag); // array of all items of [tag]
alert(elem.length);
if(thisType != "") {
for(j=0;j<elem.length;j++) {
if(elem[j].type != thisType) { elem.splice(j,1); } // If a type is specified, remove tags that do not have a type attribute
}
}
}
else { // Otherwise, any/all elements in a document/body will be affected
elem = new Array(); elem = document.getElementsByTagName(thisTag); // array of all items of [tag]
if(thisType != "") {
for(j=0;j<elem.length;j++) {
if(elem[j].type != thisType) { elem.splice(j,1); } // If a type is specified, remove tags that do not have a type attribute
}
}
}
if((thisEvent != "") && (thisAction != "")) {
for(i=0;i<elem.length;i++) { // All elements are picked - let's apply some attributes
document.getElementById(elem[i].id).addEventListener(thisEvent,thisAction,false)
}
}
}

HTML Code:
addEventToElement('form_name','input','text','keydown','return numbersOnly(event,this);');

Adding Event Listener As Attribute Breaks?

Nov 21, 2011

I am testing some code that finds and element and attempts to add an event handler attribute to it as 'onclick' (test case in Firefox 3.5.9)

/*
The actual code is:
window.onload = function()
{
//<irrelevant code>
var test = document.getElementById('tstEl');

[Code]...

I am trying to do this because Element.addEventListener or Element.attachEvent won't allow for arguments to be passed to the event handler code/function. What is going on here? The only line referenced, line35, in the document text containing javascript code is irrelevant to the problem.

Adding Event Listener To HTML Span Tag?

Aug 18, 2010

I'm not new to JS, or the web and it's various other technologies, but I ran into a problem. I'm trying to add an event handler for a click on all HTML span tags. Trouble is, getElementByTags() doesn't work and neither does getElementByTagNames(). Strangely, adding an id to the span tags and getting their id's do trigger the handler.

Code:
document.getElementsByTagName('span').addEventListener('click',doSomething,false);
function doSomething() {

Image Rollover - Capture Event Action Without Passing To Function

Aug 3, 2011

I'm really just playing around, trying to be as unobtrusive as possible, meaning that I didn't want to just do the standard on mouseover/onmouseout event actions inline in my html. My attempt was relatively close, I just need a way to be able to capture the event action without passing it into a function?

Code:
<script>
var getTabs = function(){
var allTabs = document.getElementsByTagName("div");
for (var i=0;i<allTabs.length;i++){
if (allTabs[i].className == "tabs"){
if (allTabs[i].id == this.id){
if (this.onmouseover != null){
//alert("MouseOVer");
document.getElementById(this.id).style.backgroundColor = "#465D77";
} else if (this.onmouseout != null) {
//alert("MouseOOut");
document.getElementById(this.id).style.backgroundColor = "#1a3757";
}}}}}
onload = function(){
document.getElementById("tabHR").onmouseover = getTabs;
document.getElementById("tabHR").onmouseout = getTabs;
}
</script>

HTML Code:
<!-- Begin Tabs Container -->
<div id="tabsContainer">
<div id="tabGlobal" class="tabsActive">
Home
</div>
<div id="tabHR" class="tabs">
HR Edit
</div>
<div id="tabReports" class="tabs">
Reporting
</div>
<div id="tabData" class="tabs">
Data
</div>
</div>
<!-- End Tabs Container -->
