Populate Dynamic Content By Getting Info From External File
Nov 10, 2011
I have a site setup, where each page has 3 <div> columns. In the 3rd <div> Column, I want to populate dynamic content. Basically, I want to have 1 external file, which holds the content to be populated. The 3rd <div> column on each page would need to pull the information from the 1 external file. I want to insert JavaScript in the 3rd <div> column to direct the page to pull this content from the 1 external file.
Example: 3rd <div> column could show Ads or Promotions. The external file holds the images, links, etc. for the specific Ads or Promotions. The external file can be edited just once and all pages automatically show this new content because the JavaScript in the 3rd <div> column pulls from this external file. This seems like it should be really simple, but I cannot find anything online that describes how to do this. I am likely not using the right keywords for my search because I am new to JS.

I'm writing a script and I've encountered a problem.. I have a txt file with many words, each word in a different line. For example: the file words.txt contains:
word1
word2
word3
word4
word5
I need to load the content of the file into a variable in my script. I prefer that all the words will be in the same variable with line breaks, but if you'll figure out a way to put it in an array, it's ok too. I really don't know how to do it, and I tried to google but didn't understand.. By the way, I don't want to change the txt file to js file, I need it to remain txt..

I have a page where a user can enter info into a text box named (usertext). Below the box I have a link that takes the user to another page.
This page is just a test page for proof of concept.
I am wondering if there is a way that I can dynamically populate a variable located within the url of my link. The info that will populate the variable will be whatever the user types into the text box.
For example my link will be <a href="nextpage.cfm?textvariable='#usertext#'> So when the user clicks this link, it goes to the next page already populated by the value of the info the user typed into the text box. I am thinking javascript will be involved, but I am not really sure.
I am using coldfusion 8.

I have a js file located on domain A, and on domain B i have included the js file, i want to change some information within my js file depending on the url(pulled from a database). I already have pulled the url via some coding and I am wondering if I use Ajax on domain B will this actually pull the information or will it stop it because of cross domain security? If it will block it, how can I pull this off?

I have several hundred html links in a file "main.html" pointing to external websites. ie: "external.html"
When a user clicks an external link from within "main.html", I want to bring up "external.html" in all its glory, but with a banner / header across the top (I am guessing iframe is a good option) - so effectively the link will take us to "frame.html", with "banner.html" and "external.html" in an iframe (or alike).
The banner has to be populated with information specific for that "external.html" file. ie: when they click on the link to "external_1.html", the header might have the text "external_1".
So, I am happy with doing this as a one off, but can't see the method to have a single 'onclick' script to pass the required information from "main.html" to "frame.html", and then for "banner.html" to be updated with the text passed from the 'onclick', and to know to call in the correct "external" to populate the iframe.
I will further complicate it by asking if it is possible to have all the scripting required contained within "main.html"?

I have a script that when a user selects an option from a select menu
the next select menu builds dynamically with information that relates
to the first menu selection. The menu builds dynamically, but the
values selected will not pass.
It is as if Mozilla will not recognize the menu since it was not
already built with the page.
Anybody have an answer? This is really keeping me from getting other
stuff done .

Have a WAMP setup with Apache, PHP and Mysql service and I�m working on a HTML form which will have two drop-down controls where information is extracted from two tables in my DB.The first drop-down list called (name="sel_ControlArea") will decide what information the second drop-down list will have.So far I have managed to populate them when the page is loaded using PHP but run into problem when I make a change on the first drop-down list.Question one: What is the best/correct way to solve this problem?Is it to load all information into PHP arrays and then translate these to Javascript arrays, or should I go for AJAX, or XML or are there any other better ways ?I have tried to solve this using the first method, put data in a PHP array but run into problem with this data not properly loaded.This is first time for me to pose a question so please let me know if I have left out some important information or if I should describe this problem in a different way.

Have the following code which (resides in a dialog box) and serves as an event listener for check boxes. Am able to populate / de-populate text field with values from check boxby checking or unchecking the individual check boxes:
// Event listener which picks individual contacts// and populates input field.
$('#emailCheckListId_ul input:checkbox').change(function() {
// Declare array
var emails = [];
[Code].....
However, when I use try to use theJQuery Tagifyplug-in it only creates one "tagified dynamic label" inside the text field but doesn't create another label when I click on an additional check box. Also, when I uncheck the original checkbox, itdoesn't remove the original label.
Here's my code using the JQuery tagify plug-in (all I did was keep everything the same as above but called the tagify functionon the text field):
// Add / Remove array from text fieldtextField.value = emails;
// Decorate with dynamic label
$(textField).tagify(emails);
I get this JavaScript error in the browser:
jquery.tagify.js: 'options' is undefined, line 71
In the source code this line reads:
_setOption: function( key, value ) { options.key = value;
},
Its stating that options.key is undefined...
To view the jquery.tagify.js complete source, clickhere.
Is there a way I can create an "else" for example:
// Iterate through each array and put email addresses into array$('#emailCheckListId_ul input:checkbox:checked').each(function(){
// do something
});
[Code]....

I got an [object error] from IE 7.0.5730.11 when moving the <script
src="..." type="text/javascript" /tag from the <headpart to the
<bodysection of a HTML file.
Is not possibile to include Javascript code via <script src="..."
type="text/javascript" /from the <bodysection, instead from the
<headone? If yes, anyone has any idea of which the problem could be?
If not, how can I programmatically include a javascript external file
inside the <bodypart of a HTML file, for example, using Javascript
to some particular native functions?

Interested in building my own drag'n'drop file uploader using JQuery/AJAX/PHP. Basically I want a file-uploader that users of my site can just drag the file from their computer into a div I created, and it will then upload the file for them to the selected destination.
I would like to build this from scratch, and not use any plugins so that I can better manipulate the restrictions (file types, size, destination folders, etc.)Have scoured google with no luck, only plugins. Can anyway steer me in the right direction?
UPDATEI: how to do what I want. Just set the file input field opacity to 1 so it is hidden, and you can still drag a file into that general area and if you hit the text field it will catch it. HOWEVER, I would like to know how to increase the height/width on the file input field (tried basic css on the file, but it only increases the 'browse' button size and not the actual field where you can drop the file into. I basically want a big square div that says 'Drop file here'. So I need to resize the input field.

I'm encountering a snag when attempting to dynamically populate multiple dynamic select elements. I have the following object hierarchy Field --> Category --> Expertise which are displayed within a form as select elements, e.g., when 'Field' is changed then the 'Category' is repopulated based on the root index value of 'Field' and then 'Expertise' is repopulated based on the root index value of 'Category'. Below is the code I'm using:
<div class="formRow">
<label class="desc" for="Job_Field">
Field:</label>

What's this? IE has a simple way using an ActiveX object so that I can load a text file into the <OPTION>s like a database. It is called Tabular Control. But I doubt this is going to work with Netscape. What to do?

I have the following HTML file:
---
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="test.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
Hi There. <a href="javascript:doit()">Click Me</a>
</body>
</html>
---
The following js file:
--
function doit() {
alert("I did it");
}
--
Running htm file locally (double click) gives me security warning (XP
SP 2) but if I then select "allow script to run" everything works fine.
But when I serve page through IIS (localhost) I get a syntax error line
4 char 4. Of course there is no line 4 in the js file.
This HAS to be something simple I am missing but I have tried:
- with and without language attribute in script tag
- relative and absolute paths for the js file
- with and without Mime type for js set in IIS
Only remaining thing I guess it could be is file permissions but
everything has execute on it as far as I can see.

I have been trawling everywhere, I cannot find a solution anywhere for the following:
I need a webpage with two list boxes and a text box, I want the two listboxes to be dynamic/cascading (the second dependant upon the choice in the first).
And the textbox dependant upon the selection from the second listbox.
This data has to come from a XML file stored on the local PC or Network drive.
Most importantly I do not want the user of the page to be prompted with the activeX warning.
The PC's are secure so I cannot tweak the reg, it gotta work completely with XML, XSL, Javascript etc only Can this be done if so please can someone post a simple example.
