I was wondering if there is any way to rotate text using JQuery function or plugin. I know how to rotate text in FF 3.5+, IE, Chrome etc. using CSS properties but it seems like it's impossible in FF < 3.5

I put in a code, so that when you hover over a link, text appears at the bottom of the page. My code works fine in IE 8, but the text doesn't appear in Firefox. I ran Firebug, and it gave me a "detailsbox is not defined" error.
<script type="text/javascript">
function menu (whichMenu,whatState){
if (document.getElementById)[code].....

I have some Javascript which says this:
Now that is fine when the text is only one line long. Suppose it's longer? What I want to do is have Javascript give the variable contentString its text from a hosted text file in a similar manner to the way Javascript can insert more Javascript using a hosted .js file.
I illustrate what I need to do using some "dummy" javascript:

I have a form with 9 text fields and a text area. What I want to do is replace the text in the text area depending on how many fields contain text. For example my text boxes are named 1 to 9, if the user enters text in the first five boxes I want the text area to auto fill with 'you have selected boxes 1 to 5' if the user selects all nine it will say 'you have selected 1 to 9', therefore, the user must complete the text boxes in order. I have it working with an onchange event but i have a button on the form to also auto fill the text boxes and it does not work if this is clicked

As of right now I have a code that will work in IE but wont work in FireFox...go figure. Basically what I want to have happen is when you type in an area code it will provide an output in a predetermined area of the page.
For Example:
Input- 512
Output - Austin, TX
The code that I have doesn't work with firefox and I was just wondering if there was a code that would allow that to happen.

Would u pls let me know whether the following is possible or not: User can be able to insert text on a text-box or text-area(form) as usually we use text-area to do so. But I want to put some readonly text using an open and close tag
for example: <ro>This is readonly text</ro>insert your text here Can I be able to make the text inside <ro>..</ro> tag readonly, it means user can't be able to modify or delete this readonly text. readonly text length not fixed. only way to recognize the readonly text is the <ro> tag.

Why does Firefox insert #text nodes as children of TR elements?
As a work-around for older Safari versions not properly supporting a
table row's cells collection, I used the row's childNodes collection as
it was pretty much exactly the same thing. However, in Firefox 1.0.7
text nodes are inserted between the TDs. I'm certain that this didn't
use to happen with older versions.
The HTML specification states that the only element that can be the
child of a TR is a TD, so why does Firefox put text nodes in there?
If this how the DOM is supposed to be built, can someone give me a
reference to where it states that? Or should this be reported as a
Firefox bug?

I am using foldoutmenu 3 and am having problems with viewing my menus
in firefox. On my sub3 menus i have more than one line of text in some
places. firefox does not recognise that there is more than one line
and the text simply overlaps the sub-menus below it. I thought i had
got around this by placing empty 'spacers' like so;
oFoldMenu.make('sub3','')//spacer
unfortunately, i have just viewed the site in IExplorer and it has
added way too much space since it does in fact recognise the fact that
there is more than one line in the first place.
Is there some way i can make firefox recognise the extra lines of
text? Has anyone else had a similar problem?

Looks fine in IE and Opera, but is designed to write into a textarea instead of the <div> if the brower is not IE4+ (why is it working in Opera?) so on Firefox you can see the ugly textarea....
Is there a way to either turn off the Javascript in Firefox so it doesn't work at all, or test specifically for that browser (it's not testing for anything but IE right now as I understand it) and put the text into an absolutely positioned element? Code:

A pgn-file is a plain text file. It's used for chessgames.I want Firefox 1.5.0.12 on Win XP SP2 to show the pgn-file in a frame when I click on the link.That's the first problem: Since I installed some years ago some chessprogram Firefox always asks what to do with a .pgn-file (Download dialog).I know I can change this behaviour either in config:about or in some configuration file for mime types.But how to do that??? (There are extensions for that, but only for Firefox 2 and higher. ): And I would prefer to change it via the about:config-file or in the mime-configuration file, some .rdf-file I think.Then I want to access the plain text in that frame with javascript. How could I do that?(If you need a pgn-file to test, just take any text-file and rename the ending to .pgn.)

I have a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right
<script language="javascript">
fields = 1;
function addMore() {
if (fields = 1) {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='field2' size='25' /> <span>Field 2.</span>";

My first day with jquery, and I've just been playing around a little but have run in to a problem in Firefox.
I've set up a basic form with a name and a button (not submit) and one text field.
All it does right now is open an alert box when the button is clicked. That's fair enough. However, in Firefox, if I have the text field selected and hit enter, it doesn't press the button.
How would I go about making sure the enter key presses the button? I'd like to avoid using onclick and a method in the form if possible. My aim eventually is to post data and return it without a page refresh instead of create an alert box.

How can I, for example, retrive data from Profile object (or what so
ever) to some variable declared in javascript tag on client side?
For example, let's say I have this code in Some_Page.aspx:
....
Profile.Name = "Some Name";
....
And I have some variable in java script tag:
var someVariable;
How can I get this "Some Name" from Profile.Name to someVariable?

I am new to javascript, and am having an issue, which I'm sure is elementary.. I found a script for expandable content, it suffices fine. As it stands, the script toggles images onclick. For example, whence the menu is collapsed, it displays "plus.gif" next to it, and when the menu is expanded, it displays "minus.gif" next to it.
Basically, what I would like to know is, thus: how would I change it to display text icons next to it? For example, in place of "plus.gif" I should like it to display "+" as actual text. I've dredged a number of places, however, I've found nothing. Furthermore, I cannot figure out how to do it.
