Why Does One URL Direct Work And The Other Not

Aug 20, 2010

I read a beginners book on js and now I'm working through a cookbook style book to get a hang of things, I came across an example for redirecting URLs in the book that didn't work:

<form>
<input type="text" name="url">
<input type="button" value="Go" onClick="location.href=this.form.url.value">
</form>

After searching on the net I found another that works perfectly but I don't understand why the one in the book doesn't work.

works:

<form name="openlocation">
<input type="text" name="href">
<input type="button" value="Go" onClick="location.href=document.openlocation.href.value;; ">
</form>

I tried replacing the url with href and other tweaks, is it that you cant use ".this" here, making it necesary to name the form?

Mar 15, 2007

I am a novice with both asp and javascript so I may not even be
doing this correctly, but I have an asp page that has variable being
passed to it and I have a button that I need to have it go to one page
if it is one variable and another if it was the other variable. There
is only two choices but my attempts didnt work.

page maximised.

<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="2;url=JobSheet.asp">

How can I get JobSheet.asp to open fullscreen from this code, whilst
closing the small window ?

Cookies Fail When Using URL Frame Re-direct

Apr 22, 2006

I have a simple html document I have been using for some time on my
(i.e.) abc.com domain that uses cookies. I recently purchased a new
domain name and set up a service to redirect my new domain (i.e.)
xyz.com to a sub-directory of the abc.com domain. In other words, when
someone goes to URL xyz.com, they really end up in abc.com/xyz
directory but the MSIE browser says they are xyz.com.

The problem is that cookies quit working in this setup when I copied
the same HTML document in the /xyz subdirectory that xyz.com now
accesses. I can't set or get a cookie any longer by calling the
document.cookie function from JS any longer. The call does not fail
but the data is always blank. I even tried setting the cookie and from
the next line of code reading it back immediately and it still would
not save the cookie.

Anyone know how to fix this?

I checked the value of location.host, .hostname .pathname,
document.domain and they all indicate I am really at abc.com even
though the address in my IE browser says I am at xyz.com.

Re-direct On Mysql Connection Failure?

Sep 18, 2010

I am trying to figure out a way to have a page redirect if the mysql connection fails. The issue is that the page is already loaded and the only time this would be needed is if the user tries to perform operations on a loaded page after the session runs out.

So basically, I have a page that will allow you to search for an item using ajax, then select an item and press add which will place the item in another table displaying detailed information. Both operations connect to the database using SESSION variables to save the connection information.

My goal is to use the "or die()" method to print something that will force a redirect because this could happen in a number of places in the site and I want to try and get them all in one swipe.

Here is what seemed like it would be the most promising:

$conn = mysql_connect($_SESSION['host'], $_SESSION['username'], $_SESSION['password']) or die("<script>location.href= '../login.php'</script>");

Unfortunately the javascript never runs.... I tried putting alerts also and nothing, but with firebug I can see they are printed.

how I can ensure that the javascript is executed?

Direct Link To A Form On Another Site?

Jul 22, 2010

Is it possible to direct link to a JavaScript element i want my people to be able to get to a form but in order to get to the form on this other site they have to press a JavaScript button. Which shows a a javascript form. I want to be able to directly bring them to that form in one step. Is there a way i can do this from my site to the other site...( i do not own the other site) if that helps

Is this possible? Also, while I am dreaming, could a web developer extract the frame necessary for the form /review box) and show just that, without the surrounding content? It would be totally awesome if I could extract a live review box and show it an isolated frame.

Menu Link Direct To Iframe Content?

Jan 2, 2010

I paid to have a website built, yet the developer used iFrames to accomplish the task. Basically, load a parent page, and then in an iframe, lod content chosen from a menu. Is there a way to create a menu at the homepage level, that will allow a menu listing the various parent pages, and under each parent page, have a drop down that will point directly at an iframe content?

Like this?

Page1 Page2 Page3
Page1ContentA
Page1ContentB
Page1ContentC

And when you click Page1ContentC, it will load Page1.htm and in the iframe load Page1ContentC?

Direct Links That Open Pages Within An Iframe?

Aug 9, 2010

I have developed an intranet local site that consists of a home page: index.html which contains an iframe.

Above the iframe, I have a navigation bar that opens pages with target:iframe inside the iframe.

iframe's src is set to a page named home.html and this is the page displayed when you visit the site.

I would like to be able to give users links that point directly to certain pages that populate within the iframe and not instructions on how to get to them via the nav bar. And I am not talking about the pages alone but the parent piece where the navigation bar is (nav and iframe are contained in the index.html)

Except obviously the home.html, I am unable to do that. I have found a few Javascripts but I was not clear if they were supposed to help me achieve what I wanted and they haven't worked.

JQuery :: Using Document.location.href To Direct To A Non-existant Page

Oct 14, 2011

I'm trying to create a player stats page, for my gaming server. I spoke to a guy who knows a little about javascript, and he told me there's a way to use document.location.href to direct to a custom page URL.

For example, if I search for a name, and the results are displayed. I want to click the players username, and be directed to. [url] without the "username.html" actually existing.

I heard it's possible, and it would save me a lot of time because I don't want to have 20,000+ individual pages, one for each username.

JQuery :: Pagination Direct From The Database Without A Large Default List To Paginate

Jul 27, 2011

I need a plugin or a idea about how to develop a pagination using jQuery (JSON dict coming from the DB (postgre)), but i cant get a list of all itens in the DB. I tried using offset and limit from the DB, but i didnt like the large algorithm. All i need is: develop a pagination that gives me only 20 rows from the DB (without calling a query to paginate all table from DB) and build a pagination with "first page, previous page, X-2, X-1, X, X+1, X+2, next page, last page" (X = number of actual page).

AJAX :: Cross-browsing Request Work Around - Every Browser Doesn't Work ?

Jun 14, 2010

The "Permission denied" cross site issue.

I have to check from my external domain if a service is running on localhost:8080 of a local machine.

I'm using XMLHttpRequest to do it.

I'm checking a local-web-server, not a file.

Every browser doesn't work, but Firefox. So I'm looking for a work-aorund.

An iframe? a flash swf? an applet java? HTA applications?

A side question is, why does FF work? Because it's a local-web-server?
