I have now learned how to write to and read from .txt files on my server via php, but is it possible to do this with JavaScript? Like that JavaScript writes to the .txt file every second without needing the user to refresh the page to write or read .txt file (with php). 2: Do the same thing with ActionScript 2/3.
View 9 RepliesIs there a way I can read my address bar and write the link to a file. I think it is great that websites post the code I need but the cut and paste thing gets to be a drag.

I have a script that i need to read the ip from a visitor and set a cookie, so the script will never be executed again for that particular ip address.
Right now i'm having problems with the current cookie set of my script, i can't seem to make it not appear again after it's executed (which is my goal). That's why i want to try using an IP cookie, and see if that works.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the following JavaScript (see below). The script requests an XML file from the server and displays it on the page.
The script works fine when the requested XML file is stored on the same server as the script.
The problem is when I try requesting an XML file from an external server such as the National Weather Service. I get an error. If I take the XML file from the National Weather Service and save it to my server it works. Why can't I use my script to request XML files stored on external servers?

Despite that, the xml from that api is not valid and can therefore not be read.
I am using a standard javascript that I downloaded from

The page tests well in every browser except Apple's Safari (from

work with it, even though most of his clients use IE.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI can't find any javascript that reads and writes cookies with keys,
so that it is compatible with ASP (I want to read and write cookies
from both javascript and ASP)
for example in ASP:
<%
Response.Cookies("user")("firstname")="John"
Response.Cookies("user")("lastname")="Smith"
Response.Cookies("user")("country")="Norway"
Response.Cookies("user")("age")="25"
%>
I'm looking for javascript code that can read that information.
I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically read a field input and respond to it later in the form. My situation is this: I have a question that asks how many workers are employed at a business. Later in the form, the user is asked to add as many workers as they have (section with information on each worker) ..Is there a way I can have something echoed or document.write above the latter section saying "Please add (Number of workers listed above) sections for each worker employed"
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am creating an XML document on my page with javascript. My question
is, is it possible to save that xml file on the server (I have write

be trivial using server code, but I was wondering if I can do it all
with client code and post backs? Well, any input?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a string variable containing XML in the form of text into an iframe such that it shows up as formatted XML with the expand(+) and collapse (-) options that default in IE when opening an XML file.
The first thing I tried is writing the string to a file with .xml extension and setting the iFrame src to that file. This works well normally, however in this case, the file does not get created where I want to due to some security restrictions in IE which I cannot edit as I dont have admin rights.
Secondly I tried appending the string as innerHTML to that iframe but only the content within the XML tags without any formatting shows up which is not intended.
Thirdly I cannot use any server side scripting as this is a very controlled environment and I am not allowed to host servers or edit server scripts at will. This is totally out of question, so I guess Ajax or calling a costom defined web service wont help.
At best I can say, I am limited to HTML, Javascript and vbScript.
I am receiving the string as a responseText from an ajax request which is consuming a web service. If I use responseXML, it doesn't work.
The solution I am looking at is to either display it as formatted XML in an iFrame or to just throw it into a textarea which I am already doing and simultaneously write it to an XML file or do both. If not automatically, atleast have the user press a button and do it.

View 6 Replies View RelatedIm writing client-side javascript and I want to do a server side include. There are many server files but only one will be included. These files contain peoples names and phone numbers. This info is packaged as a line of javascript but I can change that packaging if necessary.
The file name to include is being passed as a url parameter: [url]
I know how to parse the url string and stuff the ID number into a javascript variable.
I set <ICODE> foo = "/people/12345.html" </ICODE> and tried <ICODE><!--#include virtual="${foo}" --> </ICODE>
but this did not work.
Is there a way to do this with javascript given that the name of the file I wish to include is contained in a variable? If not, what is the usual way of getting the data in the server file into my client-side javascript?
I'm trying to select client side language to learn. For some time i wanted to learn Javascript, but when i tried writing first script which was so simple, i saw that it has so much problems. I thought of flash, and read few tutorials online. It's pretty simple but powerful language.
I know that probably worst feature of flash is that it's not included by default in your browser, but since youtube and other video sharing services i think that flash players on browsers are drastically more installed then before, and that almost everybody has it.
Now, i'm planning to create chat for my personal website, and i saw Ajax chats, and Flash chats. Since i don't have experience with any of the scripts i'm wondering which code is faster Properly written Javascript, or Actionscript.
Also, which of these languages are better for me to learn. I'm learning web programming as hobby so don't use money as argument. But which of those two can be used for creating fun, dynamic, fast and safe programs easily
So I have a menu animation that I built in flash/actionscript 2.0 and when you click on menu the header pulls down to reveal the menu, then you can click on menu again to push the header back up and hide the menu. I have a <div> below the header that I am trying to "push" down and "pull up" with the menu animation so what I did was in the actionscript button I used
on(release) {
getURL("javascript:moveDown();");
menuanim.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
That's the code for "pulling" the menu down, it's pretty much the same for "pushing" it up but calling for "moveUp()" instead of moveDown().So in my html I am using...
<script>
function moveUp() {
$("#moveme").animate({
[Code].....
the div is labeled as <div id="moveme" style="margin-top: -250px; width: 920px; height: 1000px; overflow: visible;"> if I use a regular javascript function that just moves the div it works, but looks horrible, as soon as I try to animate it it does nothing at all. I have tried using different sytax's likemarginTop: "-325px" and even "margin-top": "+=-325px" but nothing is working, it just will not move.
Something similar to the navigation menu on [URL].. You hover over a link and a box appears below that spreads the width of the menu itself. Friend of mine told me it was using actionscript but I have no idea how to create a drop down box (not menu). My friend told me Dreamweaver has the ability t create a drop down box but I have no idea.
Also does anyone know how to create an image slider similar to the one on that site? A slider that fades from one image to the next with the navigation arrows on the left and right side and the dots on top left?
I'm using a java-script in a HTML-page. Part of the script is the line:
var limit = 1136 - 1101;
The value 1136 is a counter and changes permanantly. In VB I can write a
routine which prints the actual value to a fule called COUNTER.TXT.
Can I change my JavaScript in such a way that it reads the value of the file
COUNTER.TXT?
