Window Repaint/redraw Delay
Apr 19, 2006
I have some code like:
try {
someButton.disabled = true;
cpuIntensiveCode();
} finally {
someButton.disabled = false;
}
The problem is that someButton is never disabled, because the browser
is busy thinking in cpuIntensiveCode. Indeed, if I don't reenable
someButton in the finally part, it waits until cpuIntensiveCode is over
to disable someButton.
The only way to disable someButton before cpuIntensiveCode is to force
the browser to redraw the window (eg: by putting an alert(...) just
after someButton is disabled).
I don't want a useless alert popping every time I run cpuIntensiveCode.
Does someone know a way to force the redraw of the browser window (not
reloading the page, just redrawing it)?

I am experiencing some rendering problems when dynamically changing CSS (width) with both Internet Explorer and Firefox. In some cases it is just in IE and in other cases just Firefox. When resizing the browser (1px is enough) everything is positioned correctly again. Is there some repaint method that I can call?

I'm trying to update an element on my page after every iteration of a loop. I'm using a simple innerHTML to achieve this, however, what happens is the page freezes during the entirety of the loop, and finally updates when the loop finishes.
// below function is triggered by clicking some element
function go() {
for (var i = 1; i < len; ++i) {
document.getElementById("output").innerHTML += "Processing #" + i;
[Code]....
Ideally, I'd like the output to update and scroll down as the function processes the data.
Is the problem that innerHTML can't keep up with the speed at which the for loop progresses?

I am trying to create a pop-up window that will remain in front of the
orignal webpage. The pop-up is called as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
var newWin=null
var winl = (screen.width-208)/2;
var wint = (screen.height-228)/2;
newWin=window.open("URL",'mywindow','left=' + winl + ',top=' +
wint+
',width=208,height=228,toolbar=,menubar=,location= ,scroll=,resizable=,status=');
newWin=window.focus(mywindow);
</script>
The webpage that this pop-up is called from is a completely blank page
that calls another website via a frame:
<frameset rows="100%,*">
<frame src="URL" >
<frame src="Untitled">
</frameset>
<noframes>
</noframes>
The reasoning behind this is because I am unable to modify the page
that the frame is calling and a pop-up needed to be loaded in front of
it. The problem is, when this page is run the pop-up comes into focus,
but when the frame called URL is finished loading, the pop-up is pushed
to the back. I cannot seem to find a way to make it focus and I think
that delaying the pop-up from lauching would solve this problem but I
have been unable to properly implement it.

Here is the script i'm working on:
The script currently asks for the amount of tabs to open then opens them when the amount is selected.
What i need to do is slow down the time between each open window to like 1000 millisecs i have tried using thread.sleep but then it only opens 1 tab.

I guess this is an easy question for all javascripters but I don't know how to manage (I'm pretty fresh with JS). I found two solutions on this forum but it seems that they don't work(?).I want to delay for few seconds window.location.href="destination_site.html" before it will automatically take visitor to destination site. It has something to do with setTimeout but I would be greatful for posting a fixed code.

I need to delay a page from opening a new window for a minimum of 5 seconds to allow some php processing (inserting a new record into a table) to occur first. the open window code works fine without the time delay, but as soon as i attempt to put a delay in, nothing happens eg, the page no longer opens a new window called newrecord.php.
A submit button calls the function like so:

Is there a way to delay a call to a page counter (ie. call to a server script from an IMG tag) for the purpose to not lock the page loading awaiting counter be displayed.
Maybe a setTimeout() launching an equivalent of "document.write", but writing in a specific DIV ? Thanks in advance for your ideas.
Actually, the counter is called (without delay) like this :

With a script that hides a <div> a couple of seconds after the page is loaded. I have little to no experience in Java, so i'm not sure how to go about it.

Quick question. Is there a way in javascript to cause a delay before a new page loads on clicking a link? I'm working on a function that I'd like to run when a link is clicked but before it's followed.
IMPORTANT: javascript must be free to run another function during this delay.
If possible, I'd like to avoid having to use any <a href="javascript:someFunction()"> type links into the html. Designers with little to no coding experience beyond very basic HTML and CSS will be using this script, and I want to make their job (and mine) easier.

I have the following CSS menu, which uses a js to create the menu on Mouseover... I want to add a delay onMouseOut... I have tried the setTimeout function, but am having some trouble getting it to work... the submenu just stays out...
var menuids=new Array("verticalmenu") //Enter id(s) of UL menus, separated by commas
var submenuoffset= 0 //Offset of submenus from main menu. Default is -2 pixels.
function createcssmenu(){
for (var i=0; i<menuids.length; i++){
var ultags=document.getElementById(menuids[i]).getElementsByTagName("ul")
for (var t=0; t<ultags.length; t++){
[Code]..

I'm using the following as my popup script:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function NewWindow(mypage, myname, w, h, scroll) {
var winl = (screen.width - w) / 2;
var wint = (screen.height - h) / 2;
winprops = 'height='+h+',width='+w+',top='+wint+',left='+winl+',scrollbars='+scroll+',res izable'
win = window.open(mypage, myname, winprops)
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 4) { win.window.focus(); }
}
// End -->
</script>
It works great, but I'd like to delay the popup by 15seconds.
What should I put in my BODY tag to do this?....

I've got a script that caches 52 card images and displays the
appropriate card based on user input. It works fine, except when the
page loads for the first time the results are unpredictable until a
few seconds elapse. My guess is that it's taking time to cache the 52
images. Is there any way to delay the loading of the page until all 52
images are cached?

I have a function which shows the caption of an image in a span tag part of an image slider. The idea is that when the function is called I change the image (this is fine), hide the span containing the alt tag info, change the text to the next image's alt tag and show it again.
The whole thing works fine exept for one thing, I have added a delay before I change the text content of the span tag but it does not seem to take the delay, the text is changed immediately as teh function is called:
$('#caption_content').slideUp(500).delay(1000).html('<p>'+caption+'</p>').slideDown(500);
Am I using delya correctly there or may be it does not work with .html()?

I have three <div> with text. On clicking on a menu <div>, the associated text <div> will slideDown(). When I click the next one, I have the last one hide() and the next slideDown(), but I would rather have the last one fadeOut() before the next one slideDown().
But the next <div> 'pushes' the last one down as it fades.
Here's what I've got now. The only one I've tried to get to work the way I want is the <div class="work_button"> And no giggling at my elementary code:
$(function(){
$(".panel").hide();
$(".work_button").click(function(){
$("#cms, #contact").fadeOut();
[Code]....

I have a page that is a displaying a Movie, or it's really 3 Movies but to get to the 2nd Movie the user has to click a "Next" button. My problem is that I want to delay this button to appear until the movie is more or less done... could be 7 or 16 minutes. What would be the easiest and most propriate way to do this using jQuery... swaping out one DIV for another once after X minutes?

I'm trying to create a slight pause before a menu closes and I've put this together. Obviously the delay timer doesn't work because I'm new to all this and I just tried to fudge it � can anyone suggest how I might make it work?
function contactClose() {
delay();
document.getElementById('contact_menu').style.visibility='hidden';

I am using DOM to swap between DIVs to give the effect of a tabbed display window. Each of the DIVs contains its own images. I don't want all of these images to load with the page but rather just to load when the relevant DIV is selected. (All but 1 DIVs are hidden initially.)
By default, is this the case? Or can I use a function to not allow the images to load until I tell them to?
