Safari 1.3 Bug PreventDefault() For Click On A Link
Sep 4, 2006
The Yahoo! UI event library goes to extremely great lengths to solve
this problem. Their solution is very creative but uses browser
sniffing. In Safari 1.3 (and earlier?) the following example follows
the link when it should not. Does anyone know of any solutions without
browser sniffing?
<p><a id="one" href="http://www.yahoo.com">link cancelled with
e.preventDefault()</a(isn't cancelled in Safari 1.3, is cancelled in
Safari 2)</p>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
document.getElementById('one').addEventListener('c lick',
function(e){e.preventDefault();}, false);
</script>

Im testing the use of document.write and Im having trouble making a link work in Safari
document.write('<a href="index.htm"><img src="./images/portrait2.png"></a>');
This works in FF and IE9 but not in Safari (nor in Chrome), In Safari I see the portrait just fine but the cursor doesnt change when overing the image and clicking on it doesnt activate the link. What is the correct way to write this line?
I have tried this and it also doesnt work in Safari and Chrome:
document.write("<a href='index.htm'><img src='./images/portrait2.png'></a>");

I've searched high and low for some decent code that will allow a visitor to a website to bookmark the site through a hyperlink. The bookmarking is done through a javascript function that looks like this:
Code:
function OnBookmarkButtonClick (e)
{
if (window.sidebar)
[code]....
I need to add some detection for Opera, Safari, and Chrome. note that it must be feature detection, not browser detection. But as I said, I've searched high and low for this, and couldn't find anything.

I would like to disable the ability of the user hold control and click
and get the dropdown menu. I am ultimately discouraging users from
easily getting a copy of the image. I was able to do this and disable
dragging on all browsers I have tested except Safari (Mac).

I want to call the click event of the link (anchor tag) on the click of the button. I used this code below in the click event of button to call links click event and it works fine in IE.
document.getElementById('linktag').click();
But, this doesn't work in Firefox. I googled a bit and found that in firefox, you have to do something more to achieve this behaviour. So, I ended up doing this on button click to work in firefox:
var link=document.getElementById('linktag');
var e = document.createEvent('MouseEvents');
e.initEvent(
[code]....
The above code does the click on link when I click on the button. But my problem now is that I have defined a link as
<a href="mailto:abc@xyz.com?subject=abc&body=email body">email </a>
and when click is called and mailto links opens my email client, it somehow ignores the subject and body parameters of the link. It works properly when i actually click a link element. but it doesn't work when i simulate the click event by code written above. above dispatching event code somehow ignores the link parameters?

Below is an example of a synthetic click in Firefox. The browser does
not follow the link. Is that the just the way synthetic clicks work of
am I doing something wrong? I know the synthetic click occurs because
if I add an onclick attribute to the link the handler runs. Any ideas? Code:

How can I give a click on a link when it is just created and added to DOM?
None of this works:
function openProfilePage(profile){
$('#profile-link').remove();
var link = $('<a/>').attr({'href':'profile.php?user='+profile, 'target':'_blank', 'id':'profile-link'}).css({'top':'-200px','left':'-300px', 'position':'absolute'}).html(profile);
[Code]...

I have two select lists that have option lists that are created from external XML lists that contain course offerings available at different locations. Each location has a different set of course offerings. When a user selects a location, the javascript code will hide / show the option entries that correspond to the course offerings for that location. If a user selects a course offering, the javascript code will show / hide the locations that offer those courses.
Click events are attached to each of the Option entries with the code below. The code works correctly with Firefox and Opera, but the click events are never triggered in IE, Safari or Chrome. The Chrome debugger seems to indicate that the click events get set up in Chrome (although I am not sure where JQuery saves event handler data). Each option entry has a unique ID tag.
$(".locn_option_select").click(function (locnevent) { // Set up click action on the option entries
locnevent.preventDefault;[code].......

he scenario is that I want to add on onclick handler to a link. When
the onclick handler fires, I want action A to take place, which will
be a request. I want to insure that action A completes before the
click to the link retrieves the page. To do that, I would like to
issue a preventDefault(), wait for action A to complete and then
direct the browser to the page specified in the link (e.g., set
location.href="clicked_link_ref").
I just cannot find any practical information that leads me to a way to
do this. I have googled and read the O'Reilly book on JS and the JS
cookbook, as well. I haven't been able to backtrack from their
examples to a solution to my own problem.

In the following script:
function txKeyPressHandler(theEvent) {
var key = theEvent.which || theEvent.keyCode;
switch (key) {
case Event.KEY_RETURN:
txIMSendMsg();
var userAgent = window.navigator.userAgent;
if (userAgent.indexOf('MSIE 6.0') == -1) theEvent.preventDefault();
break;
}}
if I take out the if clause, forcing the preventDefault to get called even
for IE6 it causes a JS error (just in IE6).

$(".change_page").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
do_stuff();
});
I noticed when I click one of these links, there is an ever so slight lag on all browsers. Maybe less than half a second, but it'snoticeable.
Now, when I remove e.preventDefault() and use return false instead, everything runs a lot smoother.

jquery-1.4.2.min.js
I'm trying to use the Alt+keyCode in my web-app and want to prevent the event from bubbling up to the browser.
The following works fine in FF & Chrome, no event propagation, but fails in IE8:
$().ready(function() {
$('html').keydown(function(event) {
if (event.altKey) {
if (event.altKey && event.keyCode == 83) { // 'S'

I have this function which prevent the default envent of a link. So far is ok. Then the function execute some tasks and then I need TO CONTINUE with the event with something like event.continueDefault(); Can I do this?
Something like:
$('.link').live('click', function(event) {
event.preventDefault(); // STOP THE EVENT
...//EXECUTE SOME TASKS
event.continueDefault() // LET THE EVENT CONTINUE. Of course, this line doesn't work.
});

I am checking if a form on a jQuery tab is changed, and if it has, the user should get a popup warning when they navigate away from the tab with the form or click any other link on the page for that matter. So I setup this code:
$('a').bind('click', function(event) {
if (formChanged == true) {
event.preventDefault()
[code]....
in the $(document).ready() function. I can see the code is executed, but the click on the link still comes through and the form is lost. I've tried .click() and .live('click') as well but that doesn't work either.

I want create a page which has animation at the bottom of that page. I use jQuery to do that. This is the way I do it
<a href="#" class="animation">Animate this</a>
And this is the jquery
$(document).ready(function() {
$('a.animation').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
//animation goes here;
});
});
When I run the code, all animation run very well except the page always scroll to the top. I try to change the href attribute to javascript:void(0); but it still run like that..

I am writing a greasemonkey script and I can capture the click event.
What I want to know is how do I determine that the click was on a URL
and not just a normal click.
document.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
// event.target is the element that was clicked
alert(event.target.toString());
}, true);

I am programming a website. On there website the users will be able to click "Add as friend". I am basically wanting it so that when my users click "Add as friend" the link will dis-appear and then it will visit a page on the iframe that I have already coded with a variable (addfriend.php?pid=CODEHERE).
If there is anyone that knows how I can make the code dis-appear using Ajax.
