I know what your first reactiopn is going to be> "You shouldn't be doing that". I know this, but my work wants it done for a locally installed html.
Is there anyway to control this onload? It will be launched from an icon(shortcut) on a desktop.
IE 6.0 (not interested in other browsers at the moment)
I have looked everywhere I can find to look and googled until I am
cross-eyed and am hoping somebody knows what I'm doing wrong.
I have an HTML application (.hta) working fine, except one thing. I'm
trying to write to a local database from a .htm window (opened from
the main .hta window) and it doesn't work with any of the combinations
I've tried (and I admit to having tried a lot).
Here is one method I've tried:
strSQL = "Update myTable SET myField = 'myValue' WHERE myID = 12;"
var db = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection");
db.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0";0
db.ConnectionString = "Data Source='c:myDirectorymyDatabase.mdb'";
db.Open;
db.execute(strSQL);
I can easily access the information in the myDatabase.mdb and display
it on the screen.
I can ask for updated information to be input on the screen.
But stuffing that updated information back into the database is the
problem.
Since I'm stuck in an .htm window, I don't have VBScript available, do
I? If VBScript isn't available and it isn't physically possible with
Javascript, then I'll have to revert to .hta windows, where I know I
have VBScript available. But I'd rather do it all in Javascript
within the .htm so as to avoid the security message that pops up when
the .hta opens a new .hta. For various reasons I don't think it is
possible for me to do this whole project within a single .hta.
I 'm working on a menu which imitates a desktop application menu toolbar (like this on your firefox ).Here's a demo[1] The menu is an <ul> containing <li> elements and <ul>s for sub-navigation.[2] User clicks the top-nav <li> with the arrow indicator and sub-menu pops out.[3] By clicking again the sub-menu hides.[4] Also by clicking outside the top-nav <ul>, a visible sub-menu hides (i used focusout event for this one).[5] Last one, a usability enhancement. Once a user clicks a top-nav <li> element with arrow indicator, he doesn't have to click again the rest <li>s with sub-nav. For instance, in the demo, if i click "Articles" and the menu pops out i shouldn't have to click "Games" in order to display it's own sub-nav.I'm having problems with [2]-[3], like arrow flickering as i click but before releasing the mouse button.umber [5] is a big mystery to me, i 'm not at this level right now.

For a project I am working on, I need to retrieve links from html
documents. The easy part is to obtain 'plain' links like <A
HREF="http://site/path/document">, but when those links are
javascript'ized, the only robust solution needs to load the javascript
and dom document representation in the same way that browsers do. For
example, links in the form:
<A HREF="javascript:function_declared_before("arguments"));>
First I though that using spidermonkey (the mozilla javascript
interpreter) should be enough, but in that case, I dont have the
document structure elements (like document, window, document.history,
document.form.element, etc), so I tried parsing the document using a
library to build a tree representation of it, but that leads me to the
same problem again, that is, I have to represent all tree nodes as
javascript entities.
Anybody here have worked on a similar problem? What tools do you
think I should take a look?

View 13 Replies View RelatedI need to be able to search through an xml located on my local machine with an html page. Here's the thing: this whole system (html files, xml file) will always be on my local machine. Because it's a class project it won't be on a server. So here's the scenario: I navigate to where my files are located (say C:) and I double click my index.html page and this page opens in my browser and from this page I need to be able to search my xml file which is at the same location. I've tried xmlhttprequest and it won't open the xml file I'm guessing because I don't need an http request.
Here's what I have so far:
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
} else {
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} xmlhttp.open("GET","C:MovieDB.xml",false);
xmlhttp.send(); xmlDoc=xmlhttp.responseXML;
function searchDB() {
if(!xmlDoc){
alert("error")
} var keyword = $('#txtBox').val();
var searchVal = $('#basicCategory :selected').text();
var allitems = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Movie");
for(var i=0;i<allitems.length;i++){
alert(allitems[i].getElementsByTagName(searchVal[0].
childNodes[0].nodeValue);
} }
The code doesn't make it past the xmlhttp.send() line.
I have several drop down lists of links with one of the drop downs being a "My Favorites". My intent is that when the user clicks on a star image next to the links, it is cloned and appended to the favorites menu, where it can then be drag and drop sorted. To remove the link from the favorites menu, the user can either click on the "x" button to the right of the link on the favorites menu, or unselect the star on the main menus.
I have successfully cloned the link and appended it to the favorites menu by selecting the star and enabled the drag and drop sorting, but I am having trouble removing the link form the favorites menu when unselecting the star and when clicking on the "x". Here is what I have so far:
var me = '';
$('div.star').toggle(function(me){
var me = $(this).next('a').text();
$(this).addClass('favorite').next('a').clone(true).appendTo('ul#myFavs1').wrap('<li></li>').before("<div class='dragHandle'><img class='png' src='_images/dragHandle4.png' width='11' height='11' /></div>").after("<div class='remove' title='Remove from Favorites'></div>").attr('id', me); return me;}, function(me){[CODE]...
So, I clone the link, wrap it, add a drag handle and the 'x' button, give it an id of the text of the link which all works fine. I have a different part of the script that uses the drag handle to drag and drop the links...that works fine. The issues I am having are that unselecting the star does not remove the link from the favorites drop down and clicking on the 'x' does not even fire the alert. The z-index on the 'x' is higher than all the other elements in the li.
I'm trying to output an HTML page from a simple XML file, but I need to offer this as a service from a website, so users can browse and find the XML file on their local hard drives, and then generate an HTML page.
I think there are some security issues with HTTP not being able to access local files (ie. C: emp.xml) because it doesn't work when I browse to a local file from the website (files on servers work fine). Is there any other way to pass an XML file from local to a website?
I'm using the following javascript to load the XML file.
var xmlDoc=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xmlDoc.async="false"
xmlDoc.load(filepath)
You will need to see the attached code,copy and paste to a location on your computer and then browse to see the problem. I'm pretty sure it's something small, but I can't see it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need some help creating some regular expressions that remove specific html tags...the script/expression will run when a button is clicked (i.e. "Remove Bold" button will remove <b> </b>).
currently I have these expressions working but they do not accomplish what exactly what I am after...Actually the functionality I'm looking for will incorperate both, however I can't seem to get it to work properly...
data.replace(/<[^>]+>/ig,"")+""); - this removes all tags (no matter what kind), I would like it to be a little less "greedy" and only remove specific tags.
i.e:
Input = <u><b>THIS IS SOME DATA</b></u>
Output= THIS IS SOME DATA
data.replace(/<(B|b)[^>]*>[^<]*(</B>|</b>)/ig,"")+""); - this removes bold tags and will leave other tags like <u> behind, exactly what I was looking for. However, it also removes the content/data that is wrapped in the tag.
i.e:
Input = <u><b>THIS IS SOME DATA</b></u>
Output= <u></u>
In the above example what I would like to happen is:
Input = <b><u>THIS IS SOME DATA</u></b>
Output= <u>THIS IS SOME DATA</u>
Any suggestions?

I need to create a new browser window when we click on a button, as we do with window.open() in javascript. I was using that initially, but I was unable to set title of the html page and hide the addressbar and statusbar using it, I tried many things. but its not working in mozilla. I know that mozilla forces the default settings. Is their any way in jquery to both this things.
Here is what I am trying to do in javascript
var width = 600;
var height = 500;
var left = parseInt((screen.availWidth/2) - (width/2));

var winProperty = "width=" + width + ",height=" + height + ",left=" + left + ",top=" + top + "screenX=" + left + ",screenY=" + top+ ",location=no,status=no";
mywindow = window.open('help/help1.html','Window title',winProperty) ;

I have a .js file, we want to make it to load a html file right next to it, both files are on client system. I couldn't find any such examples and some posts talked about JavaScript security issues, I wonder if it is related to what I want.
Someone said .js file is not really JaveScript file, though Microsoft named it 'JavaScript'.
note that I am trying to "call" .html file from the .js file, not embed html code in .js.

I also have JavaScript that will add a row to the same table.

I have these marketing campaigns running (like google adwords) and based on where a user comes from (google, yahoo, mns-bing, facebook) I have this referrer code passed that I collect out of the URL and I put a cookie on the user's computer based on what is included in this tag. OK so now I have to get the the cookie (which I know how to do) and based on if this cookie says website I need to show a drop down with sources for the user to choose from. That is my delimna. I typically code in PHP but this site wasn't developed by me so this cookie tracking was done in javascript. My issue is normally in PHP I can say if(referrer==website) then close off the php code and then go into the HTML but that doesn't seem to work for javascript.What I"m doing is retrieving the cooking and now all I want to do is say if the cookie is website show this drop down menu. The code that is currently on the site is attached.
Code:
<script>
function getCookie(c_name)

I've kind of skimmed over how drop down menus work in JS(notably jquery).Also I read you put the submenu nested within it's parent link(<li>).This proves to be a problem though because my <div id="nav"> I have, is setup to display inline (horizontal) and obviously with a drop down you want that vertical..Do I have to separate the submenu from the <div id="nav">, or does the submenu have to be nested?
