I've search all over to find a way to simulate an actual click on an element using javascript or jquery.
For example, suppose there is an element with id="someElement". I've tried
$('#someElement').click();
and
$('#someElement').trigger('click');
But this doesn't work. You might think "Why don't you just call the function that is triggered by the click event, or redirect to the url that a click would lead to anyway", but I can't do this.
1) I would like to click the Download button on this site, then wait lets say 60 sec & click free download button.[URL].. I remember that somehow it is possible to create the Request URL & then input it into IE & the server will think I hit the button.
But how can I make the URL? And how is it called? posting URL request? I will be using firefox or I can make HTML file & execute it in IE for every file.
<form action="http://uploading.com/files/get/S4WYPP73/" method="post" id="downloadform">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="second_page" />
<input type="hidden" name="file_id" value="4663720" />
function do_step_1()
{
do_request('files', 'get', {file_id: 4663720, action: 'step_1'}, function(wait_time){
if(wait_time > 0)
[Code]...
I made some quiz using one HTML form (few question with few
radio-button each like potential answers) that have one Submit button.
I would like to simulate click on this button (e.g. named "Finish")
after some time, 10 minute or so, which be equal like click on submit
button and terminate quiz (open another page or so). I tried to solve
it by JavaScript but won't, always error, like can't detect button like
object. What to do? Listing is: Code:
After all, there is some difference in the way we 'click' using our mouse at some place in the document, and what can be achieved by the dispatchEvent "click" in Firefox. We have a page, which has two iFrames on whole. Left frame having a table of clickable email subjects, and right frame showing the entire body of the selected email. The problem is, the clickable area on the subject is too small, making it a pain to click each email to see its body. So I implemented a way of navigating through them using keyboard in the parent page(using key handlers in Javascript). The problem is, when we load the page for first, the navigation works fine, since the focus is on the parent page. But as soon as someone clicks on any area on the two iFrames, the key handlers don't work because they are in the parent page, not in that frame.
I noticed that when I click on any area outside the two frames, it works again. Idea : "Why not do a setTimeOut or setInterval sort of thing, which just sits and keeps on clicking on a place outside the frames"? Good idea, but doesn't work. Why? Is installing the same kind of key handlers in both the frames the only other way? Even setting focus on an element on the parent page doesn't work.
I've to simulate right mouse click with left mouse click only in a specified class.
I thought that I've to do something like this:
$('.my_class').click(function(){
$(this).trigger( /* right click */ );
});
I've to replace /* right click */ with the correct right click event but I didn't find it. I tried in that way:
$('.my_class').click(function(){
var event = jquery.Event('click');
event.which = 3;

As the subject says it, is there a way to simulate a special keypress in JS
? In my case, on loading an HTML page, i'd like to set the cursor at the end
of the input text of an <input type=text ...> object. focus() sets the cusor at the beginning Any idea ?
How do I simulate a ESC key without user intervention? For example I want the ESC key be executed in the background when a page loads or a user clicks on a link? Is it possible in jQuery?
I know there are ways to validate what key was pressed on the keyboard using .keypress but I am looking for something like 'SENDKEYS'
this is a bookmarklet for IE that I use to see how a page works with different widths (i.e. you can simulate 1280x1024 or 640x480) without need to change resolutions or adjust window size. Not 100% accurate, but it's enough:
javascript:db=document.body;bst=db.style.zoom=1;resdesti=prompt("Destination:",800); db.style.zoom=db.offsetWidth/resdesti;void('')
I need to log into a web page automatically. The web page has a password text field and a login button. (A form?) How do I simulate that a user logged in and entered the password

I'v created a site for client, with several pages of products for
sale, we're not using any Online payment method yet -so in the
meantime, I'v just provided an Order Form, to be completed, printed
then mailed off with payment....
what I would really like to do, to improve this greatly - would be to
simulate what a paypal "add to cart" button would do - which is click
to add an item, and it places that item in a window in a separate page~
just as paypal does, and so on as they click on any other product to
buy, this would then give them an order form - but just containing the
items they want to buy - instead of the present order form which has
all products from that catagory, but obviously has the ones wanted
marked.
I have a onClick event in Javascript, What I would like to do is if a PHP variable were to be set, to trigger the Javascript onClick event. Is there a way to simulate an onClick? [URL]I have a form with some non-showing (non hidden) input fields but they show if I click a + and hide if I click -, default is hide, but if a certain PHP var were set I want to somehow simulate that + was clicked. I tried to force 'var lText' but that got the whole thing stuck in one state.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a dropdown list:
<select name="select" class="mapMenu" onChange="JumpToIt(this)">
<option selected value="none">Select a Tool --</option>
<option value="javascript:onCreatePrintable()">Print Map</option>
<option value="javascript:onFindLatLong()">Find Lat/Long</option>
</select>
That calls a script:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function JumpToIt(list) {
var newPage = list.options[list.selectedIndex].value
if (newPage != "None") {
location.href=newPage
}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
Which in turn selects an option from the original dropdown.
Works fine except.....
The options in the select call scripts that open new browser windows,
and when this occurs popup blockers swing into action and block the new
window. When I originally had the javascript calls as plain links such
as [HREF="javascript:onCreatePrintable()"] the popup was not blocked
since it was obvious that user was clicking the link. Now that I'm
trying to save much needed space by putting these links into a
dropdown, the popup blockers are not recognizing the user selection....
I guess. I was thinking the javascript could somehow simulate an
onClick to alleviate the problem. Any suggestions?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSince browsershots/org only gives static images of a web page, would it be possible to attribute e.g. the hover state / the focus state to a link via Javascript, in order to check via browsershots whether the hover or focus states are actually working as planned in a particular browser?

someone had been asking about getting images to load in a specific order a while back, and while i was thinking about that, i came up with the following preloader script. the thing that separates this one from most of the other ones you'll find is that it lets you know if any of the images didn't load. if i weren't too lazy (i'm actually posting 'cause i'm hoping someone will do this for me), i'd connect the XmlHTTP request object to the array of failed image urls, and get the actual error headers, too.anyway, here it is. it takes an array of url strings to load, and returns an array of the ones that failed, for whatever reason.
function preLoad(args){
if (document.images){
var img = new Image();
var failed = [];
img.onerror = function(){
failed[failed.length] = this.src;
if(args.length > 0){ this.src = args.shift(); }
}
img.onload = function(){
if(args.length > 0){ this.src = args.shift(); }
}
img.src = args.shift();
}
else { var failed = args; }
return failed;
}
I need to know how to get the actual screen size in points or centimeters, not in pixels. The javascript functions give me the pixels, but I need to know how many points or centimeters that is regardless if it comes from a browser or a device like an ipad or iphone. Does anyone know the code to calculate this?
View 7 Replies View RelatedMy question is, can I get the actual size of a div's content when div's width is 'auto' and the content is small enough to fit without resizing. I know there is a way to find the div's actual size after it's loaded - divObj.offsetWidth/Height. The problem is that this only works for content which is bigger than the div.
For example,
Code:
<div style="width:30px;">A text that will exceed 30px in width</div>
In this case, when the content is loaded the div will be resized and get a new offsetWidth/Height. There will be lots of new lines after the resizement which posses another problem.
After loading, the above example will look like this:
Code:
A
text
that
will
exceed
30px
in
width
Now the example has offsetWidth little more than 30px (~50) and MUCH greater height. This is not the desired effect. I want the width/height of the content when the div is not resized by the content.
I've been searching around for different ways to achieve this.

I use the plugin jquery.contextMenu.js to open a custom popup menu when a user right click to a specific html element. Nox, I want to show this popup menu when a simple onclick event occurs in a specific element. I have see that JQuery propose trigger method but there is no oncontextmenu event !

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to change the value of an input field (target) which depends on another input (source). It works well when I manually change the source value. But if I changed the source value with another button, the target value remains the same.
Here's the code...
$(document).ready(function() {
$('input#change').click(function() {
$('input#source').attr('value', 'This is the value changed by a
button');

So how could the target input detect if there's a change within the source input without manually changing it's value?
Can .trigger be used to simulate a hover effect? Or is there another way to force something to think it's been hovered?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow can I simulate pressing a key in javascript into a specific textfield?
View 23 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to merge two command scripts, and have gotten nothing. I am trying to use javascript commands to open a new window on Firefox, and on that opened window simulate a Tab key press.
This is the full script that I have come up with so far to open two windows, with the websites being yahoo.com and google.com. ***To fully help me please copy this script, paste to Notepad, save as a .html file and run it on Firefox. You will notice a "Open Windows" button will appear. When you click on it the windows will open:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function open_win() {
window.open("http://yahoo.com", "newwindow1")
window.open("http://google.com", "newwindow2")
[Code]...
What I want to do is merge these two scripts, so that when I press that "Open Windows" button, the new window opens and the Tab key press is immediately simulated to move to the next field on the webpage.
I understand that JavaScript is event driven, meaning some event has to occur before you can make things happen. The user must push a key or click somewhere on the page before you can relaly do anything with an event. I want to have the clicking of the "Open Windows" button, that first triggering event which opens a window and simulates the tab key press on that window.
