<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function(){
var els= document.forms[0].elements;
var compcode ="";
for(var i= 0; i < els.length; i++){
if (els[i].id!="") {
alert(els[i].id);
alert(els[i].title);
alert(els[i].alt);
}}}
</script>
</head>

Stumbled onto this one: retrieving the margin doesn't seem to work in Firefox or Opera. This is code I'm using, which works fine in Chrome, Safari and IE:
var contentmarginl = parseInt($('#wrapper').css('marginLeft')); // fails
var contentwidth = $('#wrapper').width(); // works alert(contentmarginl);
The alert returns (in my case) 350 in the complying browsers and 0 in FF and Opera. Is this a bug or my error? Is there a known workaround? EDIT: Just tested in XP sp3 IE7 & IE8. Returns Not a Number (NaN)

So, I have a form that, when the user clicks on a link, uses J/S to generate extra form fields for extra information. I can retrieve the value of the dynamically generated fields using $_POST in I.E., but it doesn't work in Firefox (no value is returned). Retrieving values for the static fields is fine in both I.E. and Firefox.
Here's the code - is there a function I'm using that could be replaced with something more friendly to Firefox?:
<script type='text/javascript'>
var i = 1;
function addArea() {
var newArea = addElement();
[Code].....

I've encountered a strange problem with Firefox which I don't have any
idea how to resolve. To the point: I've <divelement with a style
"height: auto" and I want to retrieve this value ("auto") in
JavaScript - however instead of getting "auto" value, I get calculated
height. In IE and Opera it simply returns "auto".

I am working on an Image Map project, the project must be written under xhtml 1.1 and must validate. The problem is Firefox and Safari will not support the image map without the name attribute, internet explorer does. If I add a name attribute to the image map, the code will not validate under xhtml 1.1. Is there any way to have this work without the name attribute in FF and Safari? The inline styles will be remove later and I would also like to replace the variables with an array but for now the focus is on getting this to work in FF without the name attribute. I can just change the doctype to transitional but we have to use xhtml1.1.
Here is the code:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var koalaMouth = "This is my left ear!";
var koalaLeftEye = "This is my left eye!";
var koalaNose = "That is my nose!";
var koalaMouth = "That is my mouth!";
var koalaRightEye = "And that is my right eye!";
function writetext(message){
document.getElementById('displayText').innerHTML=''+message+'';
}function defaultText(){ .....

I have an image map. I need to use XHTML 1.1 for this project and the code must validate.The problem is, XHTML 1.1 no longer supports the Name Attribute, it will not validate any code containing the Name Attribute.If I remove the Name Attribute, the image map does not work in FireFox.Are there any means or other method to make this work in Firefox without the Name Attribute?Here is the code for reference:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

I have seen in many places, including jQuery in Action book attribute values in quotes.
$("input[type='checkbox']) works in IE, but in Firefox it needs to be
$("input[type=checkbox]) // no quotes

1) When clicking on a list in an accordion, it should change the quicktime movie playing in a main window area. It works in firefox but not in safari. The variable imgTitle holds the expected output (e.g. '../images/Intro-1.mov'). It changes the src attribute of the embed tag. This change works in Firefox where the new movie plays on click. However, when clicking the list item in safari, nothing happens.
2) There is a problem in firefox as well in that the movie overlays everything else on page, even though it should be behind the text. Positioning would be tedious given that there's many nested elements and I would have to set relative positioning to the entire page.
$(".image_thumb ul li ul li").click(function(){
var imgTitle = $(this).find('a').attr("href");
var imgDesc = $(this).find('.block').html();[code].....

I have the following code in javascript that creates an iframe:
var iframe = document.createElement("iframe");
iframe.id = 'offerframe';
iframe.name = 'offerframe';
iframe.width = '975';
iframe.height = '650';
[Code]....
It works fine in Firefox and Safari but in IE8 it generates the iframe name attribute to "submitName"
<iframe width="975" height="650" align="center" id="offerframe" submitName="offerframe" src="http://example.com">
Notice how it sets all the other attributes fine, however the name attribute is now called "submitName". This issue only happens in IE. This there any alternatives to setting my iframe name dynamically with javascript.

I'm trying to retrieve the number of "option" elements with the "selected" attribute set to true from a "select" control in the DOM. To ease my debugging I'm using the "alert" javascript tool to display the number of such options. Here is the javascript code :
alert($('#possible_rarities > option[selected="true"]').length); "possible_rarities" is the identifier of the "select" control in the DOM. Before launching the display, I have selected an option and checked that the "selected" attribute was set to true via Firebug. But the resut display is 0 after executing the script in Firefox. I do not meet this problem when running my script in IE.

i have found a possible bug in 1.4 but it's only in Internet Explorer 7 & 8.The following code does not work and completely ruins every peice of jquery on the page (that means everything inside $(document).ready and anyting else...
$("<div/>",{
id: 'tooltip-'+rand,
class: 'dock-tooltip',
[code]....
I cant see any syntax errors - i pulled the example from the 1.4 site. There is no trailing commas in the object notation and i really cant see any reason it would work in firefox and not IEx and more to the point not only not work in IEx but break any other jquery in the entire page....

I'm working with a large (and unweildy) ASP.NET application, and there is a lot of jQuery code that uses selectors like this:
[name=_aspnetControl$_withASubControl] And unfortunately, some selectors that also look like this:
[name^=_someAspNetControl$_radioButtonList].
In other words, the effort to remove the $ from the attribute selectors would be monumental. If it is possible to escape the $ symbols, I can do that easily enough, but unfortunately the situation right now means that I can't upgrade to jQuery 1.5.

I'm learning jQuery with XML. I'm familiar with other query languages such as XPath. I'm having a little bit of difficulty wrapping my brain around how jQuery works but I think I can make the leap if I see a solution to a problem I know how to solve with other methods Given the following XML, please share a jQuery solution to finding the value of attribute B in elements named bar where attribute A has the value 30:

I'll trying to tell the difference between the following three cases:
<img alt="text string" />
<img alt="" />
<img />
I can do this in Firefox with the following code, where elem is the
HTMLElement representing each image, but IE doesn't seem to
differentiate between empty string and undefined.
var alt = elem.getAttribute('alt');
alt = (alt) ? alt : ((alt===null) ? 'really_null' : "");
The desired output from running this code on the 3 tags above is:
text string
really_null
It seems like this should be really easy...but I'm having a really
difficult time trying to figure out what's going on...

I have:
1 form on the page. (no name, no id value set.)
3 hidden form elements named: catalog, vwoidc, oid
!!! I can only include the javascript right after the body tag. The
form is found near the end of the loaded page.
<form action="actionURL" method=post>
<input type=hidden name=catalog value=store>
<input type=hidden name=vwoidc value=69a6e1deb02417250691>
<input type=hidden name=oid value=60323></form>
Everything I've tried needs to have the javascript executed after the
page has been fully loaded.

I have the code below that will retrieve a cookie that was placed by the server (ie: joes.com) that the document resides on. I want to be able to retrieve a cookie set by another server (ie: freds.com) but I want to retrieve it from a page served by joes.com. This code apparently using 'document.cookie' determines the server that the document resides on and looks for cookies from that server. Anybody know of code that will let you determine the server?
var name = "cookie";
function getCookie(name) {
var cname = name + "=";
var dc = document.cookie;
if (dc.length > 0) {
begin = dc.indexOf(cname);
if (begin != -1) {
begin += cname.length;
end = dc.indexOf(";", begin);
if (end == -1) end = dc.length;
return unescape(dc.substring(begin,
end));
}
}
return null;
}

Is their a way of iterating thru each tag within a form and returning the
value given in the id property, by that I mean the below html would return
the values idBoxOne, idBoxTwo, idBoxThree from the FormXX form.
<form name="FormXX" method="post" action="default.htm">
<input id="idBoxOne" name="bxOne" type="text">
<input id="idBoxTwo" name="bxTwo" type="text">
<input id="idBoxThree" name="bxThree" type="text">
</form>
Up to this point I've only used JavaScript to change CSS properties,
innerHTML and outerHTML so I'm rather new to the game.

function Xml_feed(file)
{
this.load = function()
{
var txt, str, title;
var threads = xml.getElementsByTagName('thread');
var len = threads.length;
var box = document.getElementById('box-a');
while (len-->0) {
txt = document.createElement('button');
title = threads[len].getElementsByTagName('title');
str = threads[len].getElementsByTagName('author');
txt.setAttribute('label', title[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue + ' by ' + str[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
box.appendChild(txt);
}
};
var xml = document.implementation.createDocument("","",null);
xml.onload = this.load;
try {
xml.load(file);
} catch (e) {
alert('There was a problem loading the XML file');
}
}
var feed = new Xml_feed('blah.xml');
in the red:
Is that how I should be retrieving the value from a child node? (the getElementsByTagName)..
in the blue:
I tried doing this.xml but had problems with doing that, i.e,
this.xml = document.implementation.createDocument("","",null);
this.xml.onload = this.xml.load;
try {
this.xml.load(file);
} catch (e) {
alert('There was a problem loading the XML file');
}
I'll guess that text in the red is why..
btw, this was in an XUL app.. not sure how much that would matter though..

For a personal project, I want to see if I can make a Greasemonkey userscript (or eventually a Firefox add-on) to list how far a certain ad on Craigslist is from where the user is (by the city listed beside the ad). My question is really just looking for ideas on how I can parse out the city's from the webpage text (with javascript or some other language?). Not even sure if this is possible.
The city's or ads aren't their own div elements or anything (nothing can ever be so simple) - but the city's listed are formatted by <font size="-1"></font>, and each ad is in it's own paragraph tag.. maybe I can use that somehow?
