Passing & (ampersand) To A New Window
Nov 22, 2007
Pretty simple, I am sure. I have a small JS script, which is
function OpenSomething(input)
{
win3=window.open("some_file.php?info=" +
input,"mywin","width=500,height=600,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes");
return false;
}
The problem is that "input" comes from a text box, and can contain
ampersand.
All I need is to replace ampersand with %26, and do the same in PHP
(which I know how to do). But how do I do that in JS?

Here is the program: [URL] Basically, I want to input a number in the input box, which assigns a number to the variable numval located at document.box1.b1. When clicking on the "new window" button, an alert displays the input box value, then another window opens and displays the integers 1 through 12 and the amount squared.
I would like the new window to obtain the number from the previous window so that the new window will display integers (and their squares) from 1 to the value of numval.

I need the most efficient way of passing a variable from a parent window to a popup window.The reason i say "most efficient" is because i currently do it like this from the parent:[code]But this is inefficient because at times it randomly alerts "undefinded".Anyways, can someone tell me a more fail safe way to pass a var to a popup so that i will be able to access it 100% correctly.

I need to open a new window(child) once the user clicks on the KPI(parent window) field on a Web page. I pass some parameters in the string. Problem is the KPI field can have the "&" ampersand character in it and the string thinks it is another parameter being sent. how I can get around this?

When using document.referrer to get the referring URL it only sees up to the ampersand
i.e. www.something.com/script?name=value&
Is there any way to get the rest of the URL?

I have a function that takes the input from a text area, searches through the text, and should replace &, ", <, or > with &, <, etc. As the code is now, it will replace other characters, but runs into an infinite loop when dealing with ampersands.I'm thinking it's finding the ampersands from other things it has already replaced and trying to replace them over and over.how to improve this and break out of the loop?
Code:
<script language="javascript">
function replace(){[code].....
Here's a link to try it out, but the loop is infinite if you search for an & and may crash your browser.

I'm using ajax to store values from a form into MySQL. The form contains a text field named "title" and the method I'm using to fetch and pass on the data to the backend is shown below:
_data = "title=" + $( '#title' ).val();
$.ajax({
async: true,
type: "POST",
url: "backend.php",
dataType: "json",
data: _data,
success: function( json ) { .... }
}});
The method works fine for normal text, say "This is a sample text". However, if an ampersand is used in the title text (example: "This & That"), the post value is being truncated at the ampersand. In effect, the & in it is causing the string to be split up into two segments and the
part after the & is being treated as a variable,
i.e. instead of passing
title = This & That
What is being passed is,
title = This
That =

We have a content management system that requires us to fill in 20 fields for metadata about a page. We store the metadata in a separate database for our records.
I'd like to be able to open a window with the data from our database, click a link, and have it fill in the form in the content management system (hosted by a different organization, so window.opener is out of the equation).
I tried this
<a href="#" onClick="window.open('http://www.google.com', 'Google'); window.Google.f.q.text.value='my name'">Enter my name in Google!</a>
In this example, I'd click a link that would open up Google, then pass the value "my name" to Google's search bar. Unfortunately for me, it didn't work.
Am I asking too much? I'd hate to have to rekey or copy/paste 20 fields worth of metadata each time I create a page.

My WEB site opens an application window and then, from its original window it navigates to a status page.
Code:
var newWindow
function popUpApplication() {
newWindow = window.open(url, parameters...);
[Code]....
Now the problem with this solution is that if the window was closed by the user I will end up with a new pop up window, which I would like to avoid... Unless there is a way to check for window existence prior to attempting to create a new window.

return false;"><img src="#trim(photodir)#/#photoname4#" width="90"

I have a script that opens up another window and a task gets executed, all of that is fine, but is there anyway that the parent window (the window that gets open) can pass data to the window that opened it? (I pretty much want to enable a button on that page)

I am trying to grab firstname from the previous form page and pass it into my open window command.
<script type="text/javascript">
{
window.open("https://www.MyWebsite.com/Myform.html?firstname=getQueryStringVariable('firstname')")
}
</script>
The above does not come out properly, I get entire GetQueryString etc in the Target URL
What should the syntax be, I think I may also be using the wrong javascript command, I think it should be a FormRequest, hmm not really sure.

I want to pass window size variables to javascript's window.open() function from a flash movie (actionscript) to javascript embedded in an html page. The idea is to generate a pop-up window when the user clicks a button in the flash movie. I've programmed the flash movie button like this:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:open_win('http://www.mysite.com', winfeatures)"); }
where winfeatures is a string containing the pop-up window options, e.g. width=400,height=300,resizable=1 . I have 'traced' the string to make sure it is formed properly. These variables may change so I don't want to just insert them verbatim as the arguments. They are read from an xml file and made into a string - e.g.
(var winfeatures:String = "width="+myxml.attributes.width+",height="+myxml.attributes.height);
In the html page I have the following javascript:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript>
function open_win(URLtoOpen, windowFeatures) {
newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, "myWin", windowFeatures);
}
</SCRIPT>
but it's not working. It seems the windowFeatures isn't being read (or read properly) and the pop-up opens with a default size.
