Problem With DOM Script (Error: Contents.style Has No Properties)
Jul 20, 2005I've got a script where I'm trying to toggle the visibility of a div
node by a click on an image that is the sibling of the div.
So I've got this HTML:
I've got a script where I'm trying to toggle the visibility of a div

So I've got this HTML:
why I can't get elements' style (left & top) properties. Below is my html & js code
<div id="results"><h3>Search Results:</h3>
<span name="user" class="user">Joe Smith</span>
<span name="user" class="user">Jon Doe</span>
</div>
[Code]....
I am working on a little javascript project, and I need to get an arbitrary element's style information.
For instance, I want a method that you can pass a reference to an object, and for instance, find the current css height property that applies to it, no matter where it was declared. I don't mind it returning a null value if it wasn't set anywhere, but if it's coming from some css class or some css id or some locally defined style, I want to know what is being expressed.
If I just try el.style.height, it only lets you know what the height is if it was explicitly defined in the style tag.
Using Javascript I know you can create elements on the page, but is it possible to create properties within the Style element?
For instance, I want to create the following CSS style:
Code:
.className
{
background-color: #9cf;
border-top: 2pt solid #000;
border-right: 1pt solid #000;
border-bottom: 1pt solid #000;
border-left: 1pt solid #000;
}
Is this possible using the DOM, or will I need to export all of my styles in one long text string and replace the Style tags innerHTML?
I was originally under the impression that css style properties could
be accessed/ listed since they exsisted as an array somewhere.
Is this just flat out wrong?
To illustrate - I guess I thought something like this could be used to
list available/ or set properties, or in this example the first
property. Is this just a fantasy? Or how does this work, at this level
or for document objects even?
//assuming <div id="menu"></div> exisists and hs styles applied....
document.write(document.getElementById('menu').sty le[0]);
//of course this is wrong...
I'm not sure this is the right group to post to, I've just found this group.I notice the old alt.dhtml group has been murdered, overwhelmed by spam. On my page: [URL] I am trying to get an element's style.top, style.marginTop, and backgroundColor. I can successfully do getElementById( ) on the element, but I can't get any settings from the element. If you bring up the page, all of this stuff is supposed to display in a header-like line just under the small banner. I can see that the doc's scrollTop has been retrieved OK (it wiggles if you move the vertical scroll bar) but all the other stuff is MIA. What am I doing wrong that I can't get this element's style properties? In the source, the function 'scroll(),' which is trying to read these
properties, is at line 52.
I would like to create a function that will change the colour of a button when clicked then change it back at the end of the function. It works by capturing the backgroun color an then storing it as a variable. However it refuses to capture the original background color if the style is set via an external CSS style sheet. It only works if i set the style via the element markup. Am i doing something wrong and is there any way of capturing the style set by a external stylesheet?
Code:
function myFunction(el)
{

I know the atomic way to set style properties of a DOM element like
Is there any way to set multiple properties in the same time? I'd like to spare some cpu time...
I assume if I use framework like JQuery to set more style props at once that call will be interpreted to the atomic way I described above...
Am I right with this guess?
I thought I'd try to begin with the accordion and tab, but I have had no success yet. I must be missing something simple. Here is the first test page:[code]Instead of getting tabs, I get my pages (generated by cgi perl scripts) displayed in tiny little scrollboxes at the top left.Equally bad, Firefox is telling me, in the error console, that jQuery.Tabs is undefined.FireFox doesn't like the filter and zoom properties in your style sheet.So, then, what do I need to do to get the tabs to work in the first instance. And then, how do I modify it to use an Accordion to display the same material. Are there any issues I need to be aware of when I start having my perl scripts (using predominantly the Perl packagesCGI and CGI::Session)create these pages?As far as possible, I am trying to keep this all valid HTML5, so that I can eventually make this interface mobile device friendly.

However, my Javascript seems to have developed an error saying that the object has no properties and then takes me to the following line of code:
obj.visibility='hidden';
This code was written for me so that i could use the script dynamically with PHP an alter the number of div layers it needed to generate.
The full(?) javascript for this function is:
function showImg(myShow)
{
var loopNum=99;
for (x=1; x<=(loopNum); x++) //1 based loop

How could I apply a css style to a <tr> row based on the value of the contents in column 1?
For instance, on my table (generated from an asp:GirdView), column 1 contains a number ranging from 1.00 to 12.00. I need to show a certain background color for all rows whose value in column 1 is greater than 10.
I am developing in firefox 1.0+, but will be working in an msie 6.0+
produciton environment ( not my choice, but when is it ever? ).
the desired output is that when the end-user selects two radio buttons,
one from each 'group', the form / page will open an alert window
displaying the values of the radio buttons selected without having the
end-user left-click on a submit button.
i cannot figure out why I'm getting the "document.[formName] has no
properties" error mesasage in the javascript console....
I've been tryin to figure out why I am getting this error for some time now. Any ideas?
<script language="Javascript">
<!--
var lead_id = "<?php echo $LeadID; ?>"
if (lead_id > "") {
var state = "<?php echo $row['State']; ?>";
var confirmer = "<?php echo $row['Confirmer']; ?>";
var day = "<?php echo $row['ApptDay']; ?>";
if (state == "MD") {
alert("hi");
document.forms['form1'].state.options[0].selected = true;
}}
//-->
</script>
state is equal to MD so I am getting the alert "hi", but it breaks right there and gives me this error. document.forms.form1 has no properties heres my form tag:
<form name="form1" id="form1" action="ticketformpro.php?LeadID=<?php echo $LeadID; ?>" method="post">
I got the following error in a javascript I wrote. The script works
fine, but why is the error being displayed???
function chgMusicLink(userid,userlink,usertype) {
var card_music_id = document.getElementsByName(userid)[0].value;
document.getElementsByName(userlink)[0].href="/card_music_preview.tcl?card_music_id="+card_music_id+"&card_music_type="+usertype;
}
I've got an image gallery in which users can navigate between the next and previous image by clicking on the right or left half respectively of the current image. When the mouse is over the left half an arrow pointing to the left is shown on the image and when on the right an arrow to the right. It works fine if i use inline javascript but i'm trying to achieve the same effect unobtrusively and with an addEvent function. The onmouseover part works fine but from the function that fires on the onmouseout event i get the following error in Firefox and the arrow is not hidden:

This is how this page [url] should work: click on an abbreviation and see player info to the immediate right of the green field. The left-most 'WR' and 'RB' in the upper portion of the field (imagemap) have javascript assigned to them. Click on these to test.
So far, I get no player info but I do get this error:

how to add extra properties to html elements as I was storing data in html attributes. After looking at some others code including Raphael and this addEvent code. [URL] They seem to treat objects just like an array. obj[property] = value; This would have been extremely helpful to know previously as I have needed to be able to include variables in property names - but have resorted to making the whole thing a string and calling exec() on it.

I'm just not sure what object they are talking about. This piece of code basically goes through and assigns x amount of divs a background image.

I'm looking for javascript to analyze the contents of a textbox and replace the contents with the appropriate date. To make that a little clearer, if the user types 'tomorrow' then when they tab/move onto the next text box the 'tomorrow' text should be replaced with the date for tomorrow in the format dd/mm/yyyy, if the user enters '1 week' then the text should be replaced with the date in one week in the format dd/mm/yyyy etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy understanding had been that $.css("width") would return the original user selected style, eg "100%" or "10em", and $.width() returned the computed width, always in "px". Not so, following the code through for .css(), it calls something called getComputedStyle and the only difference between the two functions turns out to be a post-fix of "px" on the .css() result - not very useful. I need to know whether my user has called me with a proportional dimension, or a fixed one. How to tell with jQuery?

Is there a way to hide the code between it?
This is probably quite a simple problem but I can't figure out the answer. I'm working on a site that has news stories and events coming in. What I would like is to have the news stories to be styled with squares and events with discs for instance. I might be able to change the actual plug-in so the CSS affects this change, but I just wondered how I could change the list-style-type with jQuery.
