Random Problem Reading Status Bar With Both IE6 And IE7
Feb 23, 2007
I have a JS that under certain event (on focus) reads the status bar from IE6 and IE7 and performs certain action.
It works on most of the cases, but in the log of this application, I see like 30% of the cases, the status bar returns blank.
In my tests, both IE6 and IE7 works perfectly fine, in my development computer. But in production, with people coming from all over the world with who knows what funny software installed in their machine, it some times fails.
When it fails, it mostly fails for all the user's section, but I've seen some cases when for the same user, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
I think this is just me being dim - but would value someone pointing out what I am doing wrong. I have a form, I want to pass the values from this form to another page via a .get call. Here is a short version of the form data:
[Code]...
My problem is that whatever the status of the checkbox "subscribe" it is always passed in the .get call as having the value "on". What do I need to do to pass the actual value of the checkbox in the call?
I'm trying to use Javascript to have an array of images that load randomly AND work in a slideshow manner so change every 3 seconds (in a logical order). The code I have below presents a random image but how do I get them to continue from the random image and change to the next every 3 seconds?
I've looked for a solution to this issue, but it seems like a little different scenario than other situations. I made a system for generating friend requests on Facebook. I have a grid that is 6 x 3, for a total of 18 cells. Each cell has a picture in it, and the picture is linked to the Facebook friend request page. My problem is that since each cell is populated at random from the array, I'm getting lots of repeats. For example, some picutures are in 5 cells, and some are in none. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that once a picture is used once in the grid, it does not get used again in the same grid.I still want every cell filled at random on each page load, I just want to prevent the repeating.
Here's my current code: <script type="text/javascript"> var vip_list=new Array( new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v225/1616/88/s1220771654_2158.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1220771654'), new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v223/1233/29/s904885342_9055.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=904885342'),
For my website I would like to create a famous last words generator (randomized), and random page generator (within my site). What is the code for random quotes and random links?
I am new to javascript but have been using java for quite a while. I am looking to make a random quote (out of ten possible quotes) appear in my h2 tag in a page i am working on. In java, i would make a random number generator, in javascript it looks like this:
Code: var randomnumber=Math.floor(Math.random()*11) Then make an if statement: Code: if randomnumber=1 { var quote="Live long and prosper" }
document.write(var quote); Could someone more experienced than me tell me if my code looks good and how would a go about getting "var quote" in my h2 tag?
I have noticed on one page that has a form that is displayed, the IE status bar just keeps on ticking forward. This is on the center of the status bar. Thsi happens even though the page says done.
This is using Microsoft Windows with IE. I have a form with a text box which I inspect onKeyDown to determine what key is pressed. Also if the page sits idle for a while an alert box comes up. Here's my issue.
If I load the page and wait for the time out a message is written to the staus bar. That works fine. But if I load the page, type one character in the text box and stop all activity the page times out again. But this time after the alert box has fully formed, the status bar quickly receives the message I want there but instantaneously changes to undefined.
I'm trying to find a simple step-by-step on how to read a simple XML file like this one, which will work in IE 6 and Firefox 0.x.

The problem is every example, I find that it will work in IE but not Firefox or visa versa, could someone please point me to a how to that will work with both browsers. I just spent two weeks reading the Microsoft Press Book "XML Step by Step", only to find out that the technology only works with IE.
Can someone give me some pointers on how I can read one or more arguements from a url, using js?
Why? I'm working on a LAMP based project and when a user successfully registers, the header redirects to the login screen - I'd like to check for the value of register, if read from:
var sender = xmlDocument.getElementsByTagName("sender").item(0).firstChild.data;
I ultimately want to user to see that the sender is "Name <email@example.com>". With the way the XML file is currently set up (sender is Name <email@example.com>), the only that shows up on the javascript end is Name. Is the way I'm storing it in my XML file the best way to be doing it?
I'm trying to write code that will read an XML file. I've found several examples but I can't get them to work. Am I missing a DLL file? The errors I commonly get are "object required" (as with the code below) or "permission denied". Any insight would be helpful and appreciated. Here is what I'm trying:
<script language="JavaScript"> function importXML(file) { xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM"); xmlDoc.onreadystatechange = function () { if (xmlDoc.readyState == 4) createTable() }; xmlDoc.loadXML(file); }
function createTable() { var doc=xmlDoc.documentElement; var x = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Employee"); for (i=0;i<x[0].childNodes.length;i++) { alert(i); //enter code to process stuff here } } </script>
While accessing my web service i am getting XMLHttpRequest status=0 in Crome/Mozilla and in IE getting XMLHttpRequest status=406. What is the solution for it so that i will successfully get responseText from server? I have tried accessing my html code with localhost but its getting same error,while when i run my code in that localhost location through local drive then it's working. why this is happning i didn't get?
im new to javascript really because im mainly PHP and MySQL, however i need something. At the bottom of a browser, you have a window status right? Well, when i move over links on my website, the status at the bottom changes to the destination of that link. Like
http://www.mydomain.com/somepage.php
How can i do a mouse over event, so when someone moves over the link, the status changes to "The login page" or "Register here", etc, to replace the destination URL.
From javascript, I am opening a popup window and requesting a url, which sends a xml as a response to the popup window. From this javascript, I want to read that xml content:
del_window=window.open("http://abc.com/_xmlservice","","width=1,height=1"); var ele = del_window.document.documentElement; //this is returning "HTML" ... and
I'm trying to create a javascript barcode API, that reads from my USB barcode reader and calls an action upon completion. The reading itself is not complicated at all, since the barcode reader functions exactly as typing the same numbers on my keyboard. So scanning a barcode with; 5050500
would be the same as typing it on my keyboard, but of course much faster. The problem lies in my "API" which dosn't always respond to the barcode length correctly, hence executing the actions at the wrong time (see code below).
A scenario in my application would be to separate multiple barcodes with a semicolon, which is what I'm trying to do with the code below. Copy paste the following code, and run it in your browser: Code:
The problem is my visitors see the page is loading data from skysa.com if they're using a firefox browser for instance. And theres no way to change the status bar text in firefox using javascript as far as I know.Is there ANY way to change or mask this status bar message. Can I have sth else loading continuously in order to keep the status bar busy and mask any other information? Or can I have this bar loaded from a different page on my server that is mirroring the code?
I want to hide the url in the status bar. Once the url is surfed, I want to show a message not the url itself. I know that it should be done using Javascript but I don't how know
I want to put those xml values into an html form input values <input type="text" name="phone[]"> <input type="text" name="phone[]"> <input type="text" name="phone[]">
