Processing Pending Events From Within A Longl Lasting Loop (because User Wants To Cancel A Search)
Jul 20, 2005
I have to make an application that works on pc and apple mac.
Therefore I am investigating if it's possible to use html/javascript.
The database has 10000 records and is sequentially searched. This may
take 20 seconds or so. I want the user to be able to quit the search
and also I want the outputscreen to be updated immediately when a hit
is found and not wait until the complete search is finished.
The problem is that the click-event of the 'Cancel-button' is
processed after the search is finished. Is there something like
application.processmessages (similar to Delphi) so all pending events
are processed?

In the following code I am trying to print out the value of document.body.onclick from javascript:
<BODY onclick="alert('ok')">
...
<script type="text/javascript">
alert(document.body.onclick);
</script>
...
</BODY>
However, the alert in Javascript code prints out "undefined" when I open this page and not the actual value of onclick.

I have a form that has two input buttons. One of the input submit buttons is being used to delete data from a database. Whenever a user clicks that delete button I am trying to make it so that a confirmation message appears that confirms that the user wants to carry on with the action. Then if they click Ok, the form should continue processing otherwise it will fail.
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['php_self']; ?>" method="post" id="data" name="data">
<fieldset>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Check</th><th>Id</th><th>Added</th><th>Method</th><th>Host</th><th>Port</th><th>Time</th><th id="shell">Shell Location</th>
[Code]...
Currently, the confirmation message works great but I can't get the form to submit once I click.

I am trying to design a system that allows users to draw on a whiteboard with different colors, save their drawing into hidden input boxes in the form on the page, then they can click Save Logo to save it to process it through PHP. I have the whiteboard that allows them to draw, but I am lost as to how to get the thing to populate the hidden input boxes.
So, I have the following code:
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
[code]....
What I am trying to do is use the function mousedown(e) to include an event to update a hidden input box with the value of the TD's background color that the hidden input field is attached to, so that it can be tracked when the user hits Save Logo at the bottom of the page. When they hit Save Logo, I want the form to post to itself, go through each of the input hidden fields and capture the color for each table cell, then generate an image based on the generated array, save it to a file on the server with the user's $_SESSION['userid'] as the filename + .jpg.
The problem is, though, that I do not know how to tell JavaScript to do this in the function mousedown(e) code. Also, look in the function table_create and see if I am naming the hidden input boxes correctly; not sure if it will generate the wanted result.
Just a note: I can handle all the PHP handling of the form, I just need help with the Javascript.
Edit: I attached the entire script/page to this post because so many functions rely on each other to operate, and I'm not exactly sure which function will need to be modified to get the desired result. Also, you can copy the code to a .php file to see what it looks like (as that may assist in demonstrating exactly what I'm trying to do, visually).
Edit 2: I suppose what I need to find is how to get the JavaScript to assign a value to the hidden input field that has the same id as the TD field that it needs to be linked to.

Doing web page with ASP/VB.NET. Have text boxes for UI on page. Two command buttons - Submit (for db update) and Cancel. I need the Cancel button to prompt the user to verify cancellation. Need OK/Cancel buttons on alert. If user selects Cancel-no action. If user selects OK then I want the text boxes cleared of user text input and focus returned to first text box. I think this may be the code but do not know how to apply it.
function Clear()
{
var res=window.confirm("Please confirm cancellation-text boxes will be cleared"); [code].....
Is this code valid or invalid for the events I need? How do I set it to fire when user clicks the ASP Cancel button?

I'm working on a form to add items within a bespoke CMS and have been contemplated the pros and cons of implementing a type of live search within the form. The way I was thinking of it working is:Users start to fill in form to add items to the databaseI don't want them to duplicate these items so thought that as they type the item name, I could return a table of similar results below with a note to say "The database already contains these similar items - Please check to ensure you are not replicating ... blah blah"My 2 questions are a) is this actually of any benefit to the user or should I just tell them to check the list of existing items before starting and b) anyone know of any tutorials to tell me how to do it!

what i want to do is create several radio buttons and a textbox for
searching purposes. the search will perform a search depending on
which button the user selects.
here is what i have now:
- for each radio button, i use the onClick event handler, which calls
a function called showMe()
- showMe() {
if (button 1 was selected)
document.write('form which will search down path A');
else if (button 2 was selected)
document.write('form which will search down path B');
else if (button 3 was selected)...
}
this works, but once the user makes their selection, the search form
will pop up on another page. how do i fix it so that the search form
will display on the same page as the radio buttons? Is there any
other way to accomplish this?

I have this search box form with 2 select boxes :
<form action="search.php" method="get">
<select name="RingType">
<option value="Nose">Nose</option>
<option value="Toe">Toe</option>
[Code]....
For example, when a visitor selects "Belly" RingType, I want "Belly Ring" to appear in the search box.
and
when the visitor selects "pearl" NecklaceType, I want "pearl necklace" to appear in the search box.
if the visitor first selects "Belly" RingType, and then selects "pearl" NecklaceType, I want "Belly Ring pearl necklace" to appear in the search box.
After making his selections in the search box, if he types something in the search box, it should add to what is already there in the search box. Or, if he first types something in the search box for example, "jewelry" and then selects "pearl" in the necklacetype select box, the search box should show : "jewelry pearl necklace"

I need to capitalize user input from a text field by passing the data to an array and using the split() method, then then join() method and of course toUpperCase. I need to accomplish this with a loop. I only have a crappy ebook and haven't ever been in a java classroom.
Here's what I have which is not at all sufficient. I learn best from examples, so here I am...
<HTML><HEAD>
</HEAD><BODY>
<FORM ACTION="#" NAME=strn>
Enter lower case text
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="txt1" SIZE=20>
/
The following lines of code are just my attempts at guessing javascript logic/syntax
function arrays(){
for (var i=0; i<secondarray.length; ++i)}
firstarray=getElementByName.txt1
var secondarray =firstarray.split(separator[" ", 40]).toUpperCase();
/var secondarray.join([""])
<BR><BR>
<INPUT TYPE=BUTTON VALUE="Convert to Upper Case"
onclick="document.strn.txt2.value = document.strn.txt1.value.toUpperCase()"
<BR><BR>
<input type = "text" NAME=txt2 size=20/>
</FORM></BODY></HTML>
I know this much .array = string.split(separator[, limit]);.

I have an AJAX script which is used for a "live search" type function.When a user begins to type their search, after 3 characters, my AJAX script jumps into action and shows them a list of possible results.I has worked fine for months, and now suddenly I have found that it is causing a javascript error.I have traced the error down to the "open" call... ie: this.xmlHttp.open("GET", url, true);Like I said, this has worked for ages and I haven't changed these files since I got them working.

I have a search field on the website, and when I type a word to search, it search good, but after preforming the search, the search term from search text field disappears and become the default 'Search' word.
How can I make search term stay in search field after preforming a search ? For example, when I type into the search field 'JavaScript' I want that term to stay in search field and after the search is done.

I have one html-file where the user inserts a search path for an excel file. When the user clicks the button the data in the excel file should be presented in a <TABLE>. (Yeah, I know, activex only works in IE .. but that's good enough for this project)
The problem is .. I started out with a "fixed" search path for the excel file, so I didn't have the code in a function. That worked just fine. Once I added the function {} around the code it wouldn't work, it works just fine if I comment out the form-part and the function-part, and give the search path, of course.
It also works just fine if I use the function and form, but remove the <TABLE>- and <TR>-rows

I am trying to "ajaxify" my site. Now I have one problem:
$("#posts").children().remove();
$("#tag-sidebar").children().remove();
$.each(data.Tags_Sidebar, function (indexInArray, valueOfElement) {
var insert = $("<li>");
[Code]......
Now when I click one of those links (href1, href2, href3) generated, the click event won't execute! What's the problem? Also, is it right that I have to transfer the valueOfElement over, like I did? What does stopEventPropagation do? Prevent the href from being navigated to? That's what I am trying to do.
The data object is JSON fed from here:[URL]
The HTML is here: [URL]
