Web Interface Without A Browser?
Aug 12, 2011
I am maintaining a program that has a web user interface and is written in the combination of ASP.NET and javascript. One thing that I cannot understand is that the program doesn't run directly in a browser. Actually the program looks just like a window application.Then I can search additional info about it.
1. I cannot examine the HTML to look for error.
2. I cannot use the following javascript to bring up Page-Setup dialog box:
Code:
shell = new ActiveXObject( "WScript.Shell" );
window.setTimeout( "javascript:shell.SendKeys('%fu');", 1000 );

I've got an interface with some panel that can be minimize/maximize with Javascript/CSS.
But, how can I save those information so when the user click on another page or sign out, next time he came back, the interface will look the same?
I guess I can do that with cookie but, is there others solution? Can I save that on server instead of client side?

how to do a text editing interface similar to the one on this forum, where you can click on a bold B to set the tags between the text to be bold, etc. How do you get a javascript window with a text field so users can enter the text, and then how do I enclose the tags around that value?
The rest of the stuff in PHP I can do (just substitute [b] for strong or whatever), but I'm baffled about the javascript bit.

I have been tasked with reproducing something quite similar to the following website [url]...
I examined the site, and after looking at the source I have determined that a lot of it looks like it was coded in JavaScript. While I do know a bit of JavaScript but I must admit it's not the sharpest tool in my arsenal.
Since this "application" will be heavy on the JavaScript interface, I was wondering if there was a GUI RAD tool for JavaScript similar to Visual C# for .NET.
So far I have looked into Visual Web Developer 2010 Express, Dreamweaver, and most recently the Google Web Toolkit (with GWT Designer), is anyone familiar with any of these tools, and will any of these help me develop a largely GUI based JS application?

I am building an application where more than one device can change settings on a webserver.Imagine using 2 smartphones. If a button on smartphone#1 is being pressed by a user, then on the webserver the status changes from 0 -> 1. I need both smartphone#1 and smartphone#2 to change from 0->1 and vice-versa so that the user knows the current value of the status.How can I accomplish this? Meaning, if I want to make a toggle switch.I read on the website:The first option will be styled as the "on" state switch and the second will be styled as the "off" state so write your options in the correct order.[code]My first guess is to create a function in the <head> in script, with one for the on and one for the off state.Depending on the current value I either load one of the two codes in the <body> section.The script in the <head> decides.

There are tons of lightbox apps out there, but none that I could find that use YUI. I'm sure there are lots of developers out there already using YUI and don't want to have to use another library such as jQuery to get lightbox functionality. I have two demos available from the link below and you can download a zip file of the complete application including the YUI files needed.
Supports 3 modes (LightBox, Overlay and Remote), but many many more configurations...

if i have a java interface on a website and that interface contains a box where a user enters a string and then submits it. If I wanted to rapidly submit strings from a list I had (in a text file say), how would I go about doing this?
I have looked at the source code for the interface but I don't really know java that well. There must be a way to "connect" to the interface and rapidly submit strings.

working on a feature that displays 3 news stories. The stories are accessed by 3 buttons on the top, sort of like a tab-style navigation. The catch is that all 3 stories are on the same html page, the "navigation" is just showing/hiding content based on Java, CSS & div's. Where I'm stuck is creating On/Off state for the tab buttons. What I'd like to do is:
Click button 1, buttons 2 & 3 turn off.
Click button 2, buttons 1 & 3 turn off.
Click button 3, buttons 1 & 2 turn off.
Naturally I have separate version of each button for the on/off state, I'm just not sure how to initiate the swap...Do I set a JS variable on the onclick? Or is it just a function?

Would I use php or javascript to make an admin interface so someone can update the web page I made for them earlier? As of now, they need to change the html page and upload an image using filezilla. Are there any Admin interfaces that allow you to customize what you want to change/add to an html page?

I've got a drag and drop interface working using bbc's glow, its great, but I have a slight problem.The script at the top of the page creates the widgets using dom functions. It gets the order from a string stored in a cookie. The widgets are also in the page as a default layout incase JS is turned off.This works fine in FF. However in IE, the default widget layout flashes for a couple of seconds, then JS creates the new layout. Is there anyway to stop this?Is it to do with the way IE reads the page?
I have abasic example here, if you drag and drop a heading in a blue box, refresh the page, you should see the default appear for a few seconds before the JS kick in.http:[url].....

I'd like to setup a drag and drop interface for organising menu items in a WordPress plugin I wrote. Unfortunately I know next to nothing about Javascript so don't even know where to start.I've found the following link which demonstrates the sort of interface I'd like:However, I have no idea what to do with the boxes once I have them set up. How would I detect where they are on the page and perhaps add that information to an input box?I don't need pixel perfect information, just knowing that box 1 is stacked on top of box 2, or box 4 is the first box in the middle column etc. would be enough.Then if it could add that information to a hidden input box, or maybe an input box for each box, then when the user hits a submit button the data would be stored. I'm sure this is very simple but I don't even know where to begin

In the following code
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.uilock.js"></script>
<script>
/* All you have to do is to call
* a uiLock() function
*/
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#submit').click(function(){
// To lock user interface interactions
// Optional: put html on top of the lock section,
// like animated loading gif
$.uiLock('Click Here <a href="#" onclick="$.uiUnlock();">unlock</a>');
});
// To unlock user interface interactions
//$.uiUnlock();
});
</script>
Where and how would I put a Animated loading gif?

I want to create a left navigation panel which occupies about 150px in width.
But this navigation panel has an icon/button which upon clicking closes or pushes the entire navigation to the extreme left beyond the visibility and the entire page contents widens and adjusts accordingly.
If I need to get back the navigation, I have to click on the icon again to bring it back to its previous place and teh page content adjusts accordingly. The overall idea of having this navigation is to have more space for the content when the navigation is not required.
This is some thing like the Interface of the application of flash/dreamweaver/visualstudio etc.
I have come across with this type of navigation somewhere sometimes back but can't really recall the name of the site.

I am using jQuery and blockUI to prevent the user from submitting a form twice by double clicking on the interface: This is in my global js file and is called on every pages
document.ready:
$('form').submit(function(){$.blockUI({message:'', overlayCSS:
{opacity:0.2}})});
This was working really well, but if I have validation on one of the form submits that returns false, I of course want to unblock the UI.

I am new to ajax, meaning I know nothing what so ever of programing ajax. I want to do a simple login interface with email and password (with php), but i also want that when I press submit button it show a box with "please wait..." message (this box must slide, from the top of the page). Also this box will display errors messages such as, "invalid email or password" and so on.

I have some code that changes a PDF file in another frame using:
parent.frame.document.location.href = "PDF File"
This code works fine the first time it is called. But if a PDF file is
in that frame and the code is called again IE gives me an error:
"no such interface supported"
I have used this code for the past 5 years and it has worked fine with
Adobe Acrobat 4-6 it is only 7 that started to cause me grief. It is
only IE that has this problem, Netscape seems to work fine.
I have checked the web and talked to Adobe and have yet to find a
solution.

I am not trying to start a flame war again over the JavaScript frameworks. Instead I want to focus on the JavaScript "User Interface" aspect. I refer to those fanciful widgets and effects we see increasingly appearing all over the browsers nowadays. They are usually built using HTML, JavaScript and CSS. I also notice a lot of developers like to build their own widgets and effects based on the questions asked in this forum. I am more of a server side developer so I am more curious how I can get a fanciful widget/effect in real quick time and viola jQuery UI came to my rescue today.
Then I probe deeper and it seems for the UI portion, jQuery and YUI stand out. Prototype UI is still in infant stage from what I see. Both jQuery plug-in and YUI gallery provide lots of ready made widgets to be used readily. Then come my questions below. 1. YUI framework codes are "wordy". It is cleaner and clearer of cuz but from what I know, JavaScript are downloaded onto the user browser whenever user surf to a page with JavaScript enabled correct?
Hence wordy code pay a price isn't it ? The total number of bytes that need to be download to the browser has an impact. In this aspect jQuery is more compact and in theory the final code that uses jQuery will be smaller correct ?
2. jQuery has a weakness. It is preoccupied with DOM and mainly those UI related JS code. When there is a need to have non-UI JavaScript OOP code, it does not seem to shine so well.
So my decision is simple. I don't need a lot of non-UI JavaScript OOP code, I only want ready-built UI JavaScript code and jQuery serve me very well.
I welcome other developers comments. PS Btw jQuery and YUI are free anyway and unless there are no widgets out there to serve my needs, I won't venture to re-invent the wheel again. There sure are lot's of experienced UI JavaScript developers in those communities!

Normally an SVG document is loaded/parsed/interpreted inside an HTML
document using an 'object' (or 'embed') element, although there are
supposedly other ways too. The problem is, the SVG document must be
static this way.
I want to use the DOM interface to build SVG dynamically inside an HTML
document. I am guessing I can build it inside HTML within an 'object' (or
maybe 'iframe'?) element.
My intentions/goals:
In Javascript, I construct an object 'embedSVG' which has properties and
methods for creating valid SVG elements and setting their attributes and
attribute values.
During construction, the SVG document is created with its root element.
During debugging in FF 2.0 (I'll work on an MSIE-compatible format later),
I am using the Mozilla DOM Inspector and comparing nodes when the
'object' element is loading a valid external SVG document, and when I am
appending the child representing the SVG document created by the DOM
functions.
However the child node (#document) does not specify 'svg' as the root
element, but instead 'HTML'. Something is not working.
Here is the relevant code in 'ScriptTest.html' which is the HTML in which
the SVG is supposed to be embedded. Below it is the relevant code for
'svglib.js' which is supposed to contain code for building the SVG
dynamically.
What this code is supposed to do is load the HTML page and execute the
anonymous script, and draw a navy blue-bordered yellow rectangle on a
blank page. This is similar to the example in the SVG 1.1 W3C
Recommendation on page 202 of the 719-page PDF.
I am getting an exception when embedSVG object placeInHTML() method is
called: NS_ERROR_DOM_HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR. I find in DOM Inspector in
spite of or after the exception that a document is placed as a child of
the object element, but it is HTML, with a default 'head', 'title',
'body' elements placed.
Where am I blowing it?
