Writing Event Handler In HTML Tag Vs. Via Scripting
Dec 5, 2005
<td onMouseOver="foo(event,this,'string');">something</td>
It works fine i.e. the event handler function foo is fired with the
event parameter containing the event. I do the cross-browser thing to
handle the event parameter
var evt = (evt) ? evt : ((window.event) ? event : null);
and I am all set
But when I try to do the same thing by scripting i.e. get the TD node
via the DOM and add in the event handler like so
var td=document.getElementById('tdid')
td.onmouseover=function() {
foo(event,this,"string");
|
It works in IE, but in Firefox (1.x), I get an error in the JS console
"event is not defined".
Why is this? Any way to get consistent, cross-browser behaviour?

I'm working on a project using JQuery and Keith Woods' extension to provide SVG functionality. My final goal is to develop some kind of HMI/SCADA implementation. My intention is to have an svg graphic representing some kind of process and then change certain shapes parameters from scripting part.
I'm pretty new to Javascript, JQuery and so on. But I'm trying to make my way by reading a lot on internet. However I couldn't find a clue about my most recent issue.
Mi idea is to embed and svg file created before on Inkspace. This would be the skeleton of the process I want to represent. Then, from the html document where this svg file is embedded, I want to alter certain parameters of the shapes inside, for instance I want to change the colour of a particular rectangle.
So, I embed the file in the html document like this:

I am trying to re-write a script that I found on w3schools. The script should check whether ALT key was pressed or not. My objective is not to use any inline scripts and to refer to the event within a function. My script is not working.

I'm trying to set up a system similar to Google AdSense that allows other websites to display some HTML content from my site on theirs. I've looked at the show_ads.js file Google uses to display Ads but to be honest I've not found it easy to decipher. I've also read that using a <script> tag to load a JavaScript file from my site is simpler than trying to do do this with an AJAX request. it discusses returning JSON rather than HTML.
BTW I know I could use an iframe to achieve something similar but this won't give me the result I need because the content coming from my site will contain a link back to my site and I want the link to be registered as an inbound link to my site for SEO reasons.

I'm seeing surprising behavior, consistent across Opera, Firefox, and IE.
An event handler is changing the value of an element, and there is apparently
no Change event being generated for the element. A simple illustration is,
make an INPUT element with an onchange; type in a new value, the Change
event handler is called. But make a button whose Click handler changes the
value, and the Change handler does not get called.
It appears that events are not generated while an event handler is running.
Can this be true?

How can I interrupt the enter key so it won't trigger unwanted events on my
web page? I have tried this:
var defaultEventHandler = obj.getEvent("onkeydown");
var myEventHandler = function(event){
if(event.keyCode==13){
alert(obj.getProperty("selection/index"));
}
else{
defaultEventHandler.call(this, event);
}
}
obj.setEvent("onkeydown", myEventHandler);
But it won't even enter the function.

I got following document:
When you click the main button, will one of the six images get a background image, and you can then press the image with the background image, and get your "reflextime".
But it won't work. When I press the image, were the new background image has shown, you can click on it and get your time - why?'

I try to add a function to be triggered also within an event (which already has a function). I coded it, unfortunatelly one line of the code should be different for IE and Moz. I try to find a common way without using a browser detector... Any ideea? The red line works for Mozilla, the blue one for IE:
function addFunc(){
var e = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
for(var i=0;i<e.length;i++){
if(e[i].getAttribute('onclick')||e[i].getAttribute('onclick')!=null){// Moz || IE
//var f = new Function(e[i].getAttribute('onclick'));
var f = e[i].getAttribute('onclick');
e[i].onclick=function(){f();otherFunction()}
}}} Code:

I have no problem attaching an event handler to a single anchor labelled with an id. But I can't get the following to work on all anchors, meaning nothing happens. Any idea about what's wrong here? Code:

Im using onKeyUp on a text input field and everytime some information is gathered from a database through ajax.
Is there anyway to cancel onKeyUp events that are within X seconds of the previous event trigger? I dont want to use setTimeout because i dont want them called at all.

I modified a particular page in the following way:
I ran an init function on window.onload, which iterated thorugh the checkboxes on the page and assigned an event handler function - let's call it validate() to each checkbox.
I tested it in the big 5 browsers and ran into a strange issue in I.E. only -
let's say there are the following checkboxes code...
When I click on "box1" the function is not called. When check "box2" the function is called but by "box1", when I click on "box3" the function is called by "box2" and so forth...

there doesn't seem to be a way to reference it. MyForm.SomeField.onChange
is undefined. Anyone know if there's a way to do this?

I've many div with sequence of ids like d1 d2 d3 ... and I need to listen to their click event so I'm using a loop to add an event handler to them, Here it's my code:
for(var i = 0; i < $ds.length; i++){
var $d = $ds[i];
var xFunc = function(e){
document.title = "d: "+$d;
[Code]....
But when I click on each of them always the title goes to "d: 4" where 4 is the last value in $ds.

I'm creating a drop down menu so that when a user clicks on the drop down arrow and then hovers over one of the options, a bubble comes up and does a validation. The thing is that everything works fine in Firefox, but not in IE or Chrome. The problem is that the .mouseover() function doesn't work on the <option> tags in IE and Chrome, but it works fine in Firefox because apparently FF is the only browser that supports it.

I have a form with a text box. As you know, if a user has previously entered data into that text box from the same machine, then a dropdown list appears in the browser showing previously entered values. That's fine; however I have an OnKeyUp event on this box so if a user selects from the dropdown list then the event isn't triggered. Is there any way to recognise this action as an event? None of the normal event handlers appear to do it.

i have registered a validation function as the onclick event handler. It runs for the first time but does not run when i click on the button the second time. ( this is because i have put an aert box in the validation function and it does not show up when i click on the submit button for the second time)
here is the code
Code:
<input type="submit" value="Submit" action="submit.php " onClick="return validate('add_item_form');">
Code:
function validate(form_name){
validate=1;
string="";
[Code]....
when i leave all the fields of the form blank then the error message is displayed. But when i click on the submit button again then the validation function does not run.

I am working on a project that takes links on a page (Not all, depends on if they are Merchandise links or partner links), and passes some parameters to a tracking js call.The problem is, I don't want to put 'onclicks" on every href as there could be a hundred on a page and many of the links are dynamically generated on the backend.So, I was thinking of creating a function that took in parameters from each of the links that are pressed. we have two links (there will be many more, but for an example sake).
<a href="somelink.html" id="linka">link a</a>
<javascript>
var cu = new Linktracker({
[code]...
Should I use just "bind" or "bindAsEventListener"?Since each link on the page is unique and will pass different values, what is the best way to do this without putting "onclicks" on every link?

I know that there are two ways to declare an event in javascript. code...
Now, how can the second method work with functions that have parameters??? Since we can't use parenthesis, how do we pass in the arguments?!

I'm use prototype quite a lot for ajax calls, but have always used inline onclicks. I'm trying to be less obtrusive by creating event handlers/listeners.I used to do this with the aid of pHp to place arguments into the function (usually via 'while loop'):
<li><a href="#" onclick="dofunction(arg1,arg2);">item 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#" onclick="dofunction(arg1,arg2);">item 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#" onclick="dofunction(arg1,arg2);">item 3</a></li>
[code]....

As far as readability and consistency, which is better in your opinion (or if functional difference, that I didn't account for,)
Event.observe($('txtName'), 'keypress', handleKeyPress);
Choose one:
A.
Code:
function handleKeyPress(event) {
alert(event.keyCode);
}
B.
Code:
function handleKeyPress(evt) {
evt = evt || window.event;
alert(evt.keyCode);
}
C.
Code:
function handleKeyPress(evt) {
evt = evt ? evt : window.event;
alert(evt.keyCode);
}

I've successfully used the Random-Order javascript on my site for years to shuffle around a number of banners on my main page.I now want to add an onClick event handler to each banner so that I can use Google Analytics to track those exit links, but I can't get the script to work when adding the onClick; the banners just don't show up on the webpage then. I'm pretty sure that some coding needs to happen in the function area below the content section, that just putting the onClick in each item won't do it, but I don't write this stuff, so I have no clue what to do to make it work right. Here's the script WITH the onClick code I would like to add in red. If you were to remove everything in red, the remaining code would be exactly as it currently appears on my site and works properly.

I have code which is created from a content mamagement system. It places
some handlers on tags with in-line registration:
<tag... onmousedown="mousedownHandler(this);" ...>
I want to modified the handler and access the event. Here's an example of
such (very contrived example):
fucntion mousedownHandler(obj) {
if (!e) e = window.event;
this.style.top = e.clientY +'px'
}
This works in Safari as it knows the event as e and I can get it for M$IE
with the window.event. How do I go about accessing it in Firefox?
