Retrieve Text Size?

Jul 20, 2005

This is in connection to the tread: Re: changing browser text settings?

I am wondering if there is a way to retrieve the browsers text size (not
change! ;-) ) so that I can dynamically resize the size and position of the
layers to accomodate larger than normal text-size settings. I really hope
there is because it would mean not re-writing the whole page (which I'm not
sure how to go about).

the page is here:

Way To Retrieve Text Extent?

Apr 22, 2010

Is there any way to retrieve the text extent? I'm placing links into div tags and want to set the width of the div directly, I know this might be an issue as a user could size the text them selves as well.

Is there a way at all to do this?

Text Size Selector

Jun 17, 2004

I wanted to add a text size selector thingy to my church's website. So, I made a script and added some buttons, but I keep getting errors. I'm pretty much a n00b at JS, so... Sorry if this is a really stupid question.

Anyway, here's the function:

Code:
function setFontSize(fontsize) {

/*
* Part I: Change The Size
*/
var class=(fontsize=="large") ? "contentLargeFont" : "content";
getElementById('contentDiv').className=class;

/*
* Part II: Set The Cookie
*/
var expdate=new Date();
expdate.setTime((expdate.getTime())+(60*60*24*365));
document.cookie="fontsize="+escape(fontsize)+";expires="+expdate;

}
And then here's what I use to call the function.


HTML Code:
<img src="/tcc/img/smallfont.gif" title="Normal Size" onClick="setFontSize('small')">
<img src="/tcc/img/largefont.gif" title="Large Size" onClick="setFontSize('large')">

Text Size Contol

Jul 2, 2005

After some treads in the CSS forum on full CSS expandable templates and Comfortable Buttons, I did some googling on text/font size control with JavaScript, found lots off
CSS switches and get elements by ID solutions, did end up on a site that controlled
the P and Span tags by parseInt and the screen.width

I am now using document.body.clientWidth and a window.location.href = window.location.href to reload page after a resize ...

Real Text Size Calculation?

Jul 20, 2005

I've got a small problem here. I'm trying to write some code that would
generate a drop-down menue for me, where I'd just need to enter the
menu- and submenu items into an array. The items are to be displayed as
text. Now, I want to have the layers with the submenues to appear more
or less under the appropriate main menu items. For this I need to be
able to calculate how many pixels a given text uses up on the screen of
the user. That's all fine with IE and an unproportional font like
courier. The problem is, there is this nice setting that allows you to
change the diplay size of the text - which is pretty much disfunctional
in IE, but in mozilla, it works. Which means that I can't just say that
one letter in courier, size 2, is 4 pixels wide and be happy with my
calculation, because then somebody can just pop up with another text
diplay size and *boom* - my calculation is wrong again.

Now, is there a realistic way to find out how many pixels _exactly_ a
piece of text takes up on the user's screen? Or can I make the given
piece of text a DIV and then have some kind of document.divname.left
that gives me the actual location of this text?

JQuery :: Animate CSS Changes Like Text Growing In Size Using It?

Jul 15, 2010

So, I have a hover state on a list item that makes the text enlarge and a swapping of background images, etc.

I've already built it all with CSS, but I wanted to make the change animate. Is it possible to just animate the CSS changes with JQuery, by doing it with a class or something, rather than having to write all the changes in JQuery?

Here is what I have, which doesn't animate [code]...

Alter Text Size Working In IE But Not In FF Or Chrome

Apr 11, 2011

I've written a function to change the font, this is working in IE but not in FF or Chrome. No errors come up in Firebug. Once this is working in both browsers I will change the function to gradually increase the size of the font to make it look as if the font is growing. This is why I haven't just assigned a class to the text. URL of the site with the script is [URL]

Limit The Size Of Text In Table From Radio Button

Jul 31, 2009

I have this script that gets the value of the selected radio button and then i put into a table from the id. I have over thrity of these and realized that if i didnt cut the values down to a certin size, it would completely destroy the table. I was wondering if there was any way to run the selected value from the radio group through the function(or something else that can cut it to a certin length) then display it in the table. i was thinking it might be easy to do the whole thing in javascript.

Everything above here works great, i just need to cut it to a certin lenght before its displayed

Im not sure what to put into the function to get it to do what is want echo trimStr(**************);?>

Change Text Size If Browser Is Internet Explorer?

May 27, 2010

I build a website with Typo3 and it works fine, except for the text size in Internet Explorer (and Opera). I tried anything from changing the CSS templates (excluding them) to changing px to pt to em and so. Finally, I think i need a Javascript that detects the browser and if it is Internet Explorer (or Opera) the textsize should be reduce by 1. It therfore should be the same like manually clicking in IE on View->text size -> smaller (default is medium).

My javascript (I just use Javascript for this single purpose) does not work/it does not do anything:

function resizeText(){ if (browserName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer") {document.body.style.fontSize = parseFloat (document.body.style.fontSize) -1 ;}}

JQuery :: Text Resizer With A Cookie To Remember The Font Size Level

Jul 23, 2009

I'm doing a text resizer with a cookie to remember the font size level. I'm running into a little problem and was wondering if someone sees something obvious I'm missing. The cookie is being set/read OK and the text resizer works when triggered manually, but it's not being executed on page load when you navigate to other pages.

For example, on the home page, I set it to the largest size, size 3. This gets set to the cookie. If you quit/relaunch the browser, the cookie still reports size 3. Also, when you navigate to another page, onload, it reads the size 3 and it passes it to the textResize() function (these are my console.log() lines), but the text isn't actually resized on page load. If you trigger the text resizer manually, it works.

I'm controlling the font size by adding (or removing) a class to the body tag. Anyone have any ideas why the text isn't resizing automatically onload?
