Can I use execCommand to save just the contents of a textfield as a PHP file on a users computer? I've been searching for an hour and can't figure out how to do it.

I am using IE 6.0. On a page, I have placed a contenteditable div
which I want to use as a Rich Text Area. I am using the execCommand method of
the document to control bold, italics, underlining, and undo for this div.
I have placed an input element on the page to. All but the undo, are
restricted to working only on the div. How can I restrict the undo to
working on only the div?
Below is the complete page so you can see what I am talking about.
Just paste it into an htm file and traverse to it via your browser.
Type something in the div and the input and then try the buttons. Code:
Does anyone know of a way to wrap custom tags around selected text
using execCommand or otherwise?
I am developing a rich text editor for use in a web site and while
there are a few decent ones already floating around I need to
implement a few extra bits of functionality. Specifically tool tips.
Idealy I'd like to wrap custom tags around selected text using
execCommand. Ie "Selected Text" becomes:
"<a title='User inputed tooltip'>Selected Text</a>".
Any ideas?
I'm (experimenting) writing my own RTE in JavaScript, I'm doing pretty good until it comes to the commands, the execCommand method. Here's what I have so far:
function get(editid) {
// IE
if(document.frames[editid].document) return document.frames[editid].document;
else return document.getElementById(editid).contentDocument;

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to write a wysiwyg text editor to use in back-end site administration forms. It's working pretty well, aside from one error: when I hilight a large block of text and change the font, the change only applies to portions of the text selected (which appears to be random portions). Here is the javascript I'm using:
Code:function applyFont() { document.all.rtEditor.focus(); document.execCommand(fontname, false, document.all.fontNameSelector.value);}Where am I going wrong?
I'm using an HTML page with one section having editable content. Nothing overly complicated. All other execCommands are working fine, but I cannot get Paste to work. The function is called from this button:
And, here's the Javascript function:
When I use the Copy or Cut buttons the selected text is loaded into the clipboard. If I press Ctrl+V to paste, it works fine. But clicking the Paste button either has no visible effect (if no text is selected) or just deletes any selected text. I've used the Paste command before from VB without any problem, but it's been awhile since I've used JS.
I am having a problem with my wysiwyg editor for my site, users dont like the fact that you have to select text before you create a link and I was wondering if it was possible to prompt the user to add title text before you use the execCommand('createlink') and use that has the select text that they made from the prompt. Instead of the old way where you must select text first to use execCommand('createlink') to create a link. kind of like Sitepoint's insert link function but instead prompts the user for the title and doesn't insert bbcode but a anchor tag?

It's working ok in IE, but in Firefox (3.5.3 I'm using), I get the following error:
Quote ... uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMNSHTMLDocument.execCommand]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: http://localhost/america/editora/simple2.html :: createLink :: line 11" data: no]
Line 0 I have googled for this error but seems nobody is having problems with it? Any help much appreciated, I'm a rookie in javascript.
(line 11 is the CreateLink line)
For some reason this code to copy to the clipboard isn't working anymore in IE
$("#holdtext").innerText = '#' + $("#check").val() + '#';
Copied = document.getElementById('holdtext').createTextRange();
Copied.execCommand("Copy");
basically nothing is copied to the clipboard
I have some javascript the works in conjunction with a flash video player. When a user selects a video in the Flash video list and new video is called and begins to play. Also, when that video is selected a function called "doOnMediaLoad()" is called and inside of that function I have put a call to another function that I wrote in the same script.function that is called when user selects flash player video list.
function doOnMediaLoad(e) {
vcomments_changed(e.id); //call to my function
}

I'm using the Google AJAX APIs, but some reason google.load works when run through normal javascript, but if I call the method from my jquery ready function it doesn't work. Code and output is below
page.html
<script type="text/javascript">
loadGoogleStuff();
function loaded() {
console.debug("in loaded function");
}
[Code]...
window.loadFirebugConsole is not a function If I comment out line 3 in code.js, the console debug runs okay, so the ready function is running okay. Even though there's a reference to Firebug, the same error occurs in Safari too. Nothing on the page loads.
I'm using jQuery 1.4 to hide a div (#cartPop) when the "close" link inside of it (#cartPop a) is clicked. Since I'm using animate() to fade the div out (opacity), I also have to use hide() to get rid of the div once it has faded out (otherwise the invisible div, which is on a higher z-index, blocks the elements on a lower z-index).
Code:
The problem is that the hide() function calls immediately without waiting for the animate() function to run. Even if I append a delay() function before hide() like so:
Code:
...it still doesn't wait.

I am trying to minimize the amount of script that I use on my website. I have sections of each page; each section has the same basic layout. The divs and images that I want to make appear and disappear all have nearly identical ids, the only difference is the number at the end of the id.Is there a way to get one script to automatically detect which id number has been clicked and then show all elements with the same number at the end of the id? I would also like it to hide the elements in the hide function below (basically they are the elements that do not share the same id number).I currently have everything working the way I want it to using multiple functions like the one below but I woul
$("#2thumbNail2 , #ledBar").click(function () {
$("#type201 , #type203 , #type204").hide();

I have 2 javascript files: 1 containing generic functions for my site used sitewide and another for a particular web page containing just the javascript for that page. The page is also calling the jQuery javascript file.
What I want to do is have a javascript function in my main javascript file which uses features of jQuery such as show, hide etc. and then I want to call this javascript function from the other page specific javascript file.

This does not work and so was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as to how to achieve this or something similar.
