Writing A PHP And Javascript Generated Page To A PHP Variable...
Sep 3, 2006
I have a form that posts data to a PHP mailer page I have created. When
it goes to the PHP mailer page it reads some of the data and modifies
the page accordingly using Javascript (hiding certain divs, etc...). My
goal, is to take all this data after it has been processed by
Javascript and send it through my PHP mailer as it is currently
formatted.
If it helps any, the track I am on right now involves encapsulating the
Javascript processed block in a div. I am then trying to take the
..innerHTML data from that div and store it in the PHP $message variable
for my mailer. This won't work because PHP is server side. So, I moved
on to generate some Javascript code (with PHP) that sends all that
messy HTML data that its processed through a URL variable to then be
read by PHP. This doesn't really accomplish what I want as it cuts off
about a quarter of the way through my data......
Any ideas??
One thing I thought of but don't know how to do or whether it's even
possible is using PHP to view the source of the current page and store
that as the HTML to be e-mailed. Or, is it possible to do something
similar to .innerHTML with PHP?
I'm working on some code and am running into brick walls. I'm trying to write out Javascript with Javascript and I've read the clj Meta FAQ and didn't see the answer, read many similar posts (with no luck though), and searched through the IRT.ORG Faqs (www.irt.org/script/script.htm).
The Javascript is designed to open an popup window and then inside that window call another script which will resize that window. There may be another way around this but the reason I tried this approach initially was that I wanted to call the onload handler in the popup window to resize the image only after the image had completely loaded. I've had some code in the primary Javascript file (showimage.js) before that works if the image has been cached but on the first load, it doesn't resize properly which tells me it is probably because it is trying to resize the window based on the image size but it isn't completely known at that point. So I removed that code and tried placing the resizing code in the second Javascript file (resizewindow.js). BTW I've tried other code to open a popup image and automatically size it ie Q1443 at irt.org but that doesn't do exactly what we need.
Even if there is another way to do this with one file, I still want to figure out why this isn't working in case I run into it in the future.
I thought what I would need to do to use document.writeln to write Javascript would be to escape any special characters and to break apart the script tag ie
document.writeln('</SCRIPT>');
would become
document.writeln('</SCR' + 'IPT>');
I have a HTML page and 2 Javascript files. All files are in the same directory and have permissions set correctly.
Here are the 3 files (keep in mind wordwrap has jacked up the formatting):
index.html ---------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Test</title> <SCRIPT type="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="showimage.js"> </SCRIPT> </head>
<body> Click the house<BR> <A ONCLICK="newWindow1('house1.jpg','Nice House')"><IMG SRC="house1thumb.jpg"></A> </body> </html>
showimage.js ------------ function newWindow1(pic,sitename) {
resizewindow.js --------------- function resizewindow() { // Do resizing here. // Right now this isn't being executed alert("resizing window"); }
Can anyone provide some pointers as to why this javascript is failing? I'm using IE6 on Win2k and when I click on the image to open the popup window, it does open the window but it is white with no content and the system immediately goes from about 4% CPU usage to 100% and consistently stays there until I kill that window with the task manager.
I have a function that generates the code I want from form input. Beneath the form I want to create a div tag and write out the results from the form input.
How would I go about doing this?
How would I go about passing the results from the function (e.g. function newCode() {.......(code)... var scroll = X } Then I want to write out X in a div tag?
I'm trying to dynamically write out this line of javascript:
obj.offsetLeft
So I want to be able to feed a param of either Top or Left in and then write it out so it gets execuated correctly in the javascript....so i've tried stuff like:
I am working on a javascript for my blackberry. I am trying to capture the latitude and longitude of that phone. I am able to get the coordinates in an alert box but am having a little trouble writing it to a form input field.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "[URL]"> <html xmlns="[URL]" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head><title>GPS Testing</title> </head><body> <script type="text/javascript"> if(blackberry.location.GPSSupported){ document.write("Your device supports GPS locating"); blackberry.location.onLocationUpdate(window.alert("Latitude: " + blackberry.location.latitude + " Longitude: " + blackberry.location.longitude)); var lat = blackberry.location.latitude(); var lng = blackberry.location.longitude(); blackberry.location.refreshLocation(); document.write(lat); } </script></body></html>
I am only able to test with Blackberry. I was trying to create a couple of variables with the "var lat =" and var lng =". With this script I get the alert window and when I click ok it writes "Your device supports ...".
I need a row of tickertape. Each character should appear on screen as if it were being typed, so that the entire row is scrolled left to right. Like a 'teletype' - I think they were called. Code:
What I want to do is create a HTML form that allows the user to enter data into about 10 fields, and then based on the entered data, writes out data strings to a text file. I am attempting to create a form for entering simple rectangle CAD data via a HTML form, which will be written to a text file, and then imported into a CAD program.
The form would contain prompt boxes for things like length, width, radius size, step/repeat, etc. When the user hits the "SUBMIT" button, the data strings would be written out to the filename the user specified. Below is an example of data strings to be ouputted. Variables are &L, &W, &R, &STEPX, &STEPY, &XN, &YN.
I have an external .js file to my webpaage. Can i change the value of these variables from my htm page, so that they are changed for good.
ie - i know this wont work, but it is an example.
externalFile.js ------------- var alpha = "This is some text"
frontend.htm -------------- <form name="changer" method="get" action="externalFile.js"> <input name="alpha" type="text" id="alpha" value="this is some new text that will completely replace the old text in the file"> </form>
i'm having trouble writing to a text file with javascript, i've tried writing to a local text file on my own PC, and I've also tried writing to a local file on my own server, (which I have all permissions to do so...) I'd really like to write to a file that resides on my own web server. Code:
Hi all, I have a site with frames. There is a list in the left hand frame generated by php/MySQL - list.php, and the detail of one of the listed items is shown in the main page - main.php.
While list.php reads each item from the database it generates a clickable link to main.php of the form:
Code: <a href="javascript:void (parent.main.location='main.php?id=123');">name123</a> When list.php comes to the default item, it also generates an autolink of the form:
Code: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> void(parent.main.location='main.php?id=345'); </script> Although this works OK, when I look at the generated HTML (using the browser 'source' view) there is the following javascript coding in addition to the above - is this supposed to be there or is it an error?
Code: <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- function SymError() { return true; } window. var SymRealWinOpen = window.open; function SymWinOpen(url, name, attributes) { return (new Object()); } window.open = SymWinOpen; //--> </script> and ...
Firefox has a Javascript Console that has 3 panels besides "All" and "Clear": "Errors", "Warnings", "Message".
Does anyone know a way to log a message in the Message panel with JavaScript? That would really help debugging. I know there's a way involving XPCOM, but that only works with "trusted" scripts, and scripts loaded thru html aren't trusted.
I was wondering if there was a way to view the html code that javascript produced since viewing the source code shows the javascript if statements for netcrape and IE etc.
Ive been banging my head on the wall for hours with this one, hopefully someone will know what Im doing wrong here :
The Goal:
I have an xml file that is generated on the fly via JSP which I want to load into a Microsoft.XMLHTTP ActiveX object and manipulate via javascript on the client side. Data is retreived from the server at the request of the javascript without having to reload the page.
The Problem:
For the JSP to dynamically output xml, the file must have the extension JSP, which is set to the mime type of dynamo-internal/html on the server side (as we are using ATG Dynamo). But the javascript on the client side will not retrieve anything unless the file extension is ..xml (or the mime type is recognized as text/xml). So the only way I can get it to work is to change the extension to .xml, which then of course amkes it so that the server will not process any of the JSP code.
Ive tried to override the mime type within the javascript, using the setRequestHeader method after opening the file, but no luck. A call to alert the value of req.responseXML.xml after the send() turns up empty. Ive only gotten it to work if I use a static xml file in palce of the jsp. Sample of the javascript code is below:
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // branch for native XMLHttpRequest object - THIS WORKS req = new XMLHttpRequest(); req.overrideMimeType("text/xml"); req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange; req.open("GET", "models.jsp?cId=300006&mId=TAC24", true); req.send(null); alert(req.responseXML.xml); //this gives me the resulting xml file } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // branch for IE/Windows ActiveX version - NOT WORKING req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); if (req) { req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange; req.open("GET", "models.jsp?cId=300006&mId=TAC24", true); req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","text/xml"); req.send(); alert(req.responseXML.xml); //this gives me nothing } }
In looking at the following example the Microsoft gives (bottom of page):
I should note that I successfully got the script to work using the XMLHttpRequest object and the overrideMimeType() method. This works with FireFox and I think some Mozilla clients, but not with the all important IE5, which instead uses the XMLHTTP ActiveX control.=
Does anyone know if I can save part of a web page to a file on the users computer without saving the whole web page? I know I can print part of a web page using style sheets, will this work for saving also?
If not possible, can I use Javascript to program a button the end user can click to save data to a file on their computer?
I am writing a firefox extension and I need to execute a YQL query everytime the user changes webpage on their browser.For now, all i am concerned with is detecting if their is a webpage change.For example. User is on [URL] then switches to [URL] At this point i need to call a function.So far all i can find is an onload=function()Which is only working once when the browser opens up.
I use milonic s menu for my website, as such i need to generate some sort of site map so that the various crawlers can get full access....I used to use the phpsite map which came with Milonic Menu, however since i have moved hosts, this has stopped working. [URL] any offers on why it has stopped working are welcome (windows hosting)as it still works on my other site (linux hosting)[URL]anyway, thats not the point of my post....Also provided by milonic is the option to provide a list based menu using some js...
[URL]
I have incorporated this into my site
www.tugtracker.co.uk - click misc on the menu then "Site index" You will see a pop-up erm pops up.... This looks okay and something like what i want, However i need it to be placed into a webpage so i can give it a www.tug..... address and then i can point the crawlers at it.... How do i code it into the page to that the JS will run within the body and result within the body of a page?
I have been playing with jquery loupe and want to use it on a ajax genererated return (html refresh) So far I can get it to recognize multiple images defining only one script using a id tag that begins with image_
I'm trying to add dynamically generated HTML after the page has loaded. I've tried two versions.The latest versions is this, using insertBefore (as appendChild is buggy in a few browsers according to the SitePoint reference) ...
Code:
addImageField: function(x) { var newNode = createImageField(x); var src = document.getElementById("imageUploads");
[code]...
The first alert returns: object HTMLFieldsetElement .The second alert returns: object HTMLDivElement....and the third alert fails to fire, indicating a problem with the code above.Note that if I change the problem line to remove the null reference it still doesn't work (again the third alert won't fire):
function PopUpWindow(w,h,urla,v) { document.getElementById('h1').value=v var popUpX = (screen.width/2)-w/2; var popUpY = (screen.height/2)-h/2; var pos = "left="+popUpX+",top="+popUpY; window.open(urla,'myPopup',"scrollbars=yes,width="+w+",height="+h+","+pos); }
The above function is called by the following button click event onclick = "PopUpWindow(390,500,'gal_rhinoplastyresult.html',photos1)" where photos1 is an image array
which opens the bellow page as follows....everything is fine but no functionality in print i.e. window.print() not working.
I was wondering if there was an easy way to dump the html that gets generated after the page gets loaded to verify it's what I wanted and expected (I'd like to check out the source, not just the results).
I'm would like to add a light box to a site that has content generated by php. Basically it is a property site and will have a thumbnail image and description. When the user clicks on thumbnail I would like to display a gallery of pictures relevant to the property. Each property will be generated dynamically by php. My question is how do I enter the selector for the gallery into jquery. I am thinking of using Fancy Zoom as you can use hidden elements, as the gallery will be hidden.
