The stuff I've built recently works (in the sense that it does what I'm
expecting it to do without any errors or warnings) in IE and FF but
fails silently in Safari. I don't have a Mac to test on. I write some
stuff and send it to the client who tests and reports back.
I don't do any browser sniffing, I test for a feature for I try to use it...
Are there any known oddities about scripting for Safari that might
possibly help me out.
I have an input box searching a XML file for a string. Anything the user types in, the script searches through the XML file in the "name" and "conference" tags for results. This works just fine in Firefox. However, in Safari, it only returns a result when a single search result is found. I've narrowed it down to this line, and I have no idea what is wrong with it. my use of selectors in this way? Or is it a Webkit bug?
$(xml).find('name:contains("' +searchString+ '"),conference:contains
("' +searchString+ '")').each(function() {
....print results....
});
I'm using jQuery-1.6.2 and stumbled upon the problem that exceptions within AJAX callbacks are silently ignored:
$.ajax({
url: '/',
success: function() {

I've got a pc which will hold some log files, and I want to get them onto my server.Rather than use a combination of batch scripts, ftp, and cron jobs, I thought I'd try using an hta htpertext application on the local machine, to upload the log file. So I'm trying to do a hta file that will upload a specified file via a self-submitting (javascript), then close itself, but I'm having 2 problems:1. Specifying the file name as the value of the file in the form doesn't seem to have any effect. The form comes trhough with a blank field.2. On submitting the form to the server, it opens an IE window to view the returned page (even if it's blank). If I ran the script every 10 minutes or whatever, the screen and memory would soo get full.Here' s the code I'm using:
Code:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="http://myserver/form.php"

I'm trying to automate the submission of a page after a specific
amount of time, but each of the attempts below do not work....
I have this script that works in IE:[code]it should be the same thing, they're both using HTTP Requests, but the "getJobStock" script just returns no options, but ONLY in IE. In all other browsers PC or MAC it works fine.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a simple image gallery that has a floating image
that popups up when the user clicks on a thumbnail. So far so good.
Now, when I tried to align the popup image so it's near the cursor,
things get a little screwy: it works fine for Internet Explorer 6
(although always appears near the top for a long page) but completely
fails with Firefox (causing it to ignore the rest of the JavaScript).
Can someone help explain why? The code that's causing the problem
(which is used to calculate the x and y positions) is:
var posx = 0;
var posy = 0;
if (!e) var e = window.event;
if (e.pageX || e.pageY)
{
nc.style.left = e.pageX * 0.6;
nc.style.top = e.pageY * 0.5;
}
else if (e.clientX || e.clientY)
{
nc.style.left = (e.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft) * 0.6;
nc.style.top = (e.clientY + document.body.scrollTop) * 0.5;
}
I'm using jmediaelement to provide jquery-ui styled controls for video. Works in all browsers, including, with jplayer fallback, Firefox and IE9, and even IE8 when the content is inside a jquery ui dialog. But for some reason on page loads with IE8 the jplayer swf object isn't injected into the page...
This is the markup in the page:
I'm loading jQuery, jquery ui, jmediaelement's mm.full.min.js and jmeEmbedControls.js in the page footer. player.swf is available in the same dir. In a subsequent script, I'm calling embedControls on any video elements in the page:
I have no idea even what to try. I tried adding jme's debug js file, but get nothing useful from it in IE8. Loading in FF it just prints "everything looks ok" in console. When I call jmeEmbedControls() from the console it just adds another set of controls below the original. No jwplayer. No styling.
Weirder yet, when I put the same markup that does not work in the page into a jquery ui dialog(), init the modal dialog, and make the same call to jmeEmbedControls, the video inside the dialog is skinned with jwplayer and plays (css is a little off, but it plays fine).
What am I missing? Why would code in the original page load not be skinned with jwplayer, and code rendered in a jQuery().dialog() then get the correct jwplayer funct? (I know about the local security sandbox issues and have added localhost to my trusted sites. Also, same problem on http live site.)
I'm making a drop down menu and it works great in all modern browser but it fails in IE7 and IE8. when i try to move the mouse from the main menu item to the opened dropdown, this disappears. What do I need here?
This is the page: [url]
And this is the JS code:
Appears to be an issue of jQuery when detecting hover over subnavi when it has position absolute...
I am trying to make a fuinction that, when called, will return the string that is retrned in text form from my php code.
This is what i currently have, but it is just failing when it is run, what am i doing wrong?

var response;
varxmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.open("GET", "http://10.1.1.10/projects/short/?ext&url=" +

ohh, and this is running chrome, so no standards issues :D
I have an XML file that I'm trying to load into and xml object, however the doctype tag is killing the javascript, and does not parse the XML at all. If I remove the doctype, the javascript can parse, and I can access the XML DOM. So I know the XML is valid. Even with the Doctype, it validates. However Javascript does not like it. I don't have a choice to remove the Doctype tag of the XML.
If I remove the Doctype, this method works to parse the XML DOM:
Code:
xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load(filename);
Also, if I use the .open method to retrieve the XML, I cannot access the XML DOM via xmlhttp.responseXML. But I do get a result when I use xmlhttp.responseText, it displays the corresponding XML.
Code:
xmlhttp.open("GET", filename, false);
I want to access all the <div> tags on my page. below is javascript
which is use to access them
var divs=document.getElementsByTagName("div");
this works on IE but is failing on Pocket PC 2003 browser.
any of guys faced this problem..any work arounds?
This succeeds in Chrome and Firefox but fails in IE8
$.get('/2/mpeg4.jpg')
.error(function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) { alert(textStatus); alert(errorThrown);})
.success(function(data, textStatus, jqXHR) { alert(textStatus); alert(jqXHR.responseText);});

I am new to jQuery, but seems prettyy straightforward. URL validation is failing on [URL], even ion the demo site. Not sure why as it is a clean url (generated by wordpress) and takes me to the appropriate content.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI ran into a problem that I could not fix myself, I am trying to replace a string with another string, the replace lines look like this:
Code:
var word = document.getElementById("word").innerHTML;
document.getElementById("word").innerHTML = wordd.replace(/B/g, '<span class="style106">B</span><span class="style107"> </span>');
It works just perfectly if left alone, but I need to replace every letter inside this string, adding those style and span tags around each and every letter. So if I add another line to this code, like this:

I'm having trouble reading a not-so-large local XML file. The following code works fine for under 70 nodes:
// load values from the xml file
$.get('dic.xml', function(dicXml){
$('node', dicXml).each(function(){
var literal = $(this).find('literal').text();

Unfortunately in Internet Explorer 7* it is failing to fire more than once when applied to a text input. I put together a minimal test case to demonstrate:httpHas anyone else figured out how to fix this already?Is there an alternative that would serve me better?

I have a credit card field that is only mandatory if they select a credit card as a payment type.
If they select Gift Certificate, then I set the card to not be mandatory:
$('#creditcard').removeClass('required').removeClass('creditcard');
validationRules.rules.CardNumber.required = false;
however the validation still fails on the creditcard field. If I enter this in to Firefox's console:
$("#OForm").validate().element("#creditcard");
it returns false.
To make matters more confusing, this validation only fails on my form when I am passing a particular parameter in the URL string. I've scoured my code and cannot figure out why that parameter would have any impact whatsoever on this matter.
Does anyone know if there is a quick test to tell if Safari 1.3 (or 2.0
will suffice) is the browser that doesn't rely on the typical
navigator.* methods? For instance, there is the good 'ol document.all
test for MSIE... Looking to add Safari support to my tty editor for my cms.
The following code suppresses the 'enter' key, when run in I.E. 5.5 or
later (Windows) but not when run in Safari (Mac)
<body onkeypress="javascript:keysuppress(event)" >
function keysuppress(e)
{
if (e.type=="keypress" && e.keyCode=="13")
{
event.returnValue=false
}
}
What code can I use to suppress the 'enter' key when running an app in
Safari?
I am currently working on a project that displays preview of a jpeg
in an iframe. we can edit this preview - like increasing its zoom
level and changing pages , images etc. This works fine with IE on windows
but whenit comes to Safari on Mac , the preview is lost on refreshing the
browser.
I have noticed that this problem occurs when ever I use Iframes.
Although the main jsp page is refreshed and shown, the jsp page that
is the source for iframe contained in the main jsp page is not shown.
I thought that if I have:
....
<body onload="some_script();">
....
that some_script would not be called until the <body> was completely
loaded - is this not the case? With Safari 1.3 I seem to have to delay
inside some_script (there is some php in the <body> that slows down the
loading). Since I happen to have a spare iframe in my <body>, I load a
tiny bit of html in it whose job is simply to set a "loaded" flag,
tested inside my delay code.
What I was observing was that some fields inside a <form> in the <body>,
whose values are set by some_script, were, with Safari, not visible
until I clicked in one of them - then they all popped into sight. I
wasn't seeing this with other browsers and a delay mechanism fixed it.
It was as if the onload was triggered as soon as it was encountered
rather than when the loading was complete.
I'm trying to use the onPaste event in a text input, which according to Apple is supported. However, I get no response in Safari. Firefox works fine.
