I'm working on my last JavaScript project for school and have encountered a few problems. The two issues that I'm having with this script are: - The cookies only work in Internet Explorer; - I can't figure out the code to save the 3rd text input field as a cookie that will automatically change the background color to the user's fav color.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Exercice 07</title>
[Code].....
I have a problem with cookies set via javascript. What I try to
achieve is, when a user comes on the intranet, he can click on a link (
a simple href) that will set the content to french or english. I want
to set a cookie to persist that choice each time the user comes back on
the intranet. This feature must be available everywhere on the
intranet and the link is placed in an inner asp script called Menu.asp
which is included each time a page loads.
Now, I know it's maybe not the best way to achieve this but I'm just
working from what has been made by others, I cannot change the way
things are made, too much work would be involved and they won't accept
to give time to do everything all over again.
The best approach I got was to set a querystring value and replace the
cookie value from vbscript code. The problem is, the intranet we have
use a lot of the querystrings for a lot of features and when I click
the English/French link, that info is lost. I've tried to set a
mechanism to keep all the querystring and only add a new value but I
got weird results...
So I've turned to Javascript and still got no luck... For some
reasons, the cookie gets deleted from the cookie file as soon as my
javascript modifies the cookie.
Here's an example:
I want to save the form value for a persons USERNAME in a cookie when they are logging into my free e-mail service. So when they come back I can lookup the cookie and write the value for their username back into that spot in the form.
I've got it working for the drop-down menu so that it will change to whatever domain they selected the last time they logged in but I can't get it to work for the username box.
I have dropdown list like this:<select id="myList">
<option value="1">Option 1</option>
<option value="2">Option 2</option>
<option value="3">Option 3</option>
<option value="4">Option 4</option>
</select>
and i modify it using javascript and once i have finished modifying the dropdown list i want to save its current state to a cookie so that when i reload the page the last state of the dropdown list is retrieved from the cookie and written into the page is this possible?
I'm having a few problems with this script:
- the third text input in the form is requesting for the user's favorite color. I need it to validate the data to either be a defined color or a hexadecimal value and then turn the background into that color upon submission. However, it's not validating correctly... When a correct value is entered it works fine, it's the error message for an invalid entry that's not appearing.
- I need to save all of the user's input into a cookie which will automatically load their preferences the next time they visit the site(time of day message, first & last name and bg color).
Here's what I have so far:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">

How can i manage it (html or jscript with css) that everytime a user loads
or refreshes a page, the page has a new bgcolor.
I want to put it in a single file, so that all my pages have the same color,
but after every refresh a new random one.
The following doesn't work:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<title>Sample flash</title>
<embed id="foo" src="[URL]" width="400" height="40"
[code].....
The following doesn't work:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<title>Test</title>
<embed id="foo" src="http://www.w3schools.com/media/bookmark.swf" width="400"
[Code].....
But if you change setAttribute to ("width", "800"), it works with no problem! What am I missing?
I tried this in my script:
Code:
newWindow.document.bgColor="#CC9900";
It does not work in FF, is there an alternative for adding color directly to the document object?
I am building a dhtml menu system and it works great in ie 4.0+ and nn6 but in nn4.7 the table background color inside the layers doesn't show up. It does in the other two have a look Code:

I need to create an external .JS in perl script, with a Var that holds the bgcolor of a table. I need it to be an external .JS file because i will be changeing the color values alot.
I dont want to generate the HTML, at this time, with perl.
Createing the .JS file is easy, what i need to know is:
1. What the .JS file needs to look like.
2. And how to assign the table bgcolor to the var stored in the .JS file.
:)
The .JS file will need several Vars
var color1 = "#000000";
var color2 = "#000000";
var color3 = "#000000";
The table need to look something like this:
<table width="100%" border="1" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="5" bgcolor="COLOR1" bordercolor="COLOR2">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="COLOR3">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I wrote this code bellow but it doesn't work how I get to bgcolor of tr tag?
<table id="menutable" name="table1">
<tr onmouseover="ChangeCol()" id="tr_1"><li><a href="main.html" name="main" target="main">Main Page</a><br/></tr>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
[code]....
Is there a way to dynamically (e.g. upon onClick) change the bgColor
attribute of a table cell? I tried cell.setAttribute("bgColor",
someColor), where someColor was a string of the form "#RRGGBB",
but nothing happened.
Also, how can I set the mouse cursor to be an arrow when it hovers
over these table cells? (It's an insertion bar now.)
I have the following simple code:
<TABLE><TR>
<TD BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" ONCLICK="myform.color.value =
this.bgcolor">hello</TD>
</TR></TABLE>
<FORM ACTION="hello.cgi" NAME="myform" ID="myform">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="color" SIZE="10" MAXLENGTH="10">
</FORM>
When I click on the cell, the text input box shows 'undefined'. How
can I insert the cell's bgcolor hex code (#FFFFFF) into the form's
box.
Can I make a list of hyperlinks that users can customize and save as a cookie by clicking a button and automatically retrieve the cookie so it remembers their list next time? This is kind of what I want to do:
[Code]...
I am making a sort of text based game (Just a hobby) I like to do that sort of thing. So, anyway, considering all I can really do is code HTML, and very, very light javascript, I kinda need some help.
I basicly know how to do everything except affect & Use the cookies. So what I need to do with them is to
#1.) Have a code to change the cookie number, say... on the click of a button.
#2.) Have a code where it only displays certain text if the cookie is a certain number.
I cant code JS and have no idea how hard/easy this is.
If it is insanely hard & needs a master coder, just tell me and ill take it off. I dont want to be wasting anyones time.
I have an embedded system with a web interface. One of the web pages
has a small JavaScript program that, when run on IE6, always displays
the message that cookies need to be enabled:
if (document.cookie.indexOf('asm_session') == -1)
{
document.cookie = 'asm_session=0'
if (document.cookie.indexOf('asm_session') == -1)
{
document.write("Advanced System Management access requires
cookies to be enabled."+'<br><br>');
}
}
This problem only occurs with IE6, not Mozilla. It also only happens
on some of the embedded systems, but this problem exists for everyone
running IE6.
The problem isn't limited to the Javascript code, either. On another
web page from this embedded system, a cookie is set the normal way,
via the HTTP header. This cookie is also rejected.
When I display any page that attempts to set a cookie, IE6 displays
the blocked icon and says that cookies on that URL are blocked.
However, I have set all privacy and cookie options to their most
permissive. I've spent the past hour changing every option I can find
that's even remotely related to cookies and privacy, and nothing
changes. Does anyone have any idea what's going on?
In my web application we are able to store large data in the browser
cookie keeping in mind the limit of 300 cookies per cookie file, 20
keys per cookie per domain and 4KB max size of each cookie. We are
unable to retreive this large amount of data immediately after storing
through document.cookie in IE browser (The same works fine in
Netscape).
Is there any limit on the size of the data that can be retreived using
document.cookie in IE browser? Could you please suggest a solution to
this problem I am facing.
I am trying to set a cookie in my cookie directory but this is not working.
document.cookie = "username=John;
expires=15/02/2015 00:00:00";
I wrote a script to generate links to some pictures that I need to
regularly update our site with. Is there a way to write a script that
just saves the pics to a directory on my pc so I dont have to right
click on every link and do a save picture as...? I can't link
directly to the pics from our site because our site is https and the
site the pics are on are http so the user gets the security warning
box every time a pic loads. Code:
WANT: Client to save an image to disk pressing a "download" button.
The image name is dynamic, from JS code on another part of the
page
DID: Read somewhere I can use document.execCommand("SaveAs") to do it
This solves it for MSIE, at least. My code is below
PROBLEM: What actually happens with MSIE is:
1) A window pops up promting me to save as.
2) The filename is correct, but the saveas type shown in the box is limited to "html" and "txt"
3) The "image" that is saved is not an image, but an HTML file containing the link to the image!! This is NOT what I want!
PLEASE help. How do I get MSIE to save the actual image instead?
PS With netscape, instead of the saveas dialogue, a window opens with
the image displayed. By clicking <CTRL-S> I can save the actual image.

I have a log file that is viewed on the local machine. There are some
settings on the html page that allow the user to specify how the file
is viewed. I'm just wnodering what are my options in saving these
settings (so they could be reloaded next time the user loads the page).
Writing to registry, a file, or a cookie? what's the right approach?
I've got an online system which I'm interested in making available
offline - i.e. letting the user download certain HTML forms, fill them
out offline, then the next time he logs into the site, sending all the
data he filled out to the system. However, I can't seem to come up
with a good way to do this. I thought of using cookies (that'd be
great, since the system could detect them automatically), but it seems
I can't set cookies for my server offline; it has to be from a page on
the server itself. And from what I can tell, JavaScript doesn't have
the capability to write files on a local system either. Does anyone
have any ideas about how to go about this using JavaScript?
