However, I was wondering - I realize there does not seem to be a "standard" way to do this (without additional libraries), but is there any "hacky" method that can be used to get XPath support in IE? What I mean is for parsing the loaded HTML document.
View 1 RepliesJust wondering - is there some trick that allows this to be done of which I am not aware? Specifically, I would like to use XPath to query the _current_ HTML document in IE.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if you could cast some light on a confusing subject. is
there a way which you know of that can search through html documents and
extract selected information, and display that in another (main) html
document?
MSIE 6.0 apparently does not support protyping with objects created
with document.createElement, while Firefox does.
I tested it by typing it into the adress bar, but it also appears to be
the case for code embedded in a HTML document. Here's a simple segment
of code to demonstrate the difference:
javascript: function myObj(){};myObj.prototype =
document.createElement('a'); var x = document.createElement('a'); var
y=new myObj(); var z= new Object(); alert(x.href) /*blank in both FF &
MSIE6 */; alert(y.href) /* blank in FF but 'undefined' in MSIE6 */;
alert(z.href) /* 'undefined' in both FF & MSIE6 */;
I wonder why that is (apart from the fact that MSIE implements JScript
and not javascript), and can anyone tell me which of both browsers is
complient with W3C standards?
I just wanted to know if I have a text document that contains html code,how would I search through the code and retrieve all the data related to the search. i.e. by creating a search engine. The problem I face is if the format of the tag names change in the html txt document then it won't work. Therfore using DOM to retrieve the text would fail. Is there anything other than DOM that I can use to parse through the text document, so even if the code changed the search engine would still work.The aim is to search through a html "text document" and retrieve the data that the user wants.

View 5 Replies View RelatedNormally an SVG document is loaded/parsed/interpreted inside an HTML
document using an 'object' (or 'embed') element, although there are
supposedly other ways too. The problem is, the SVG document must be
static this way.
I want to use the DOM interface to build SVG dynamically inside an HTML
document. I am guessing I can build it inside HTML within an 'object' (or
maybe 'iframe'?) element.
My intentions/goals:
In Javascript, I construct an object 'embedSVG' which has properties and
methods for creating valid SVG elements and setting their attributes and
attribute values.
During construction, the SVG document is created with its root element.
During debugging in FF 2.0 (I'll work on an MSIE-compatible format later),
I am using the Mozilla DOM Inspector and comparing nodes when the
'object' element is loading a valid external SVG document, and when I am
appending the child representing the SVG document created by the DOM
functions.
However the child node (#document) does not specify 'svg' as the root
element, but instead 'HTML'. Something is not working.
Here is the relevant code in 'ScriptTest.html' which is the HTML in which
the SVG is supposed to be embedded. Below it is the relevant code for
'svglib.js' which is supposed to contain code for building the SVG
dynamically.
What this code is supposed to do is load the HTML page and execute the
anonymous script, and draw a navy blue-bordered yellow rectangle on a
blank page. This is similar to the example in the SVG 1.1 W3C
Recommendation on page 202 of the 719-page PDF.
I am getting an exception when embedSVG object placeInHTML() method is
called: NS_ERROR_DOM_HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR. I find in DOM Inspector in
spite of or after the exception that a document is placed as a child of
the object element, but it is HTML, with a default 'head', 'title',
'body' elements placed.
Where am I blowing it?
It is possible to perform a find in page search that looks at a specific link, opens the page in a new window and finds the text within that document? Basically I regularly use an html page in work that has a list of people and their telephone numbers.I want to be able to type in a searchbox on my main page and it open the target page and find the name I am looking for?Is this possible or can you only Find In Page on the same page or another frame?

Here is the output from the web service:

So I know that the click function is getting implemented.. The alert box appears however I get the following error in firebug: uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression:[@class=mediafield] Line 0

Let's say you're getting some xml via ajax, instead of the ajax.responseText property you create a dom document using the responseXML property.
Is there a safe cross-browser way to query that document using xpath?
I know in IE you can use selectNodes/selectSingleNode, but what about other browsers?
I'm using a simple dom parser function to catch xpath information of all nodes of a document. Say html is like :
HTML Code:
<div>
<div>Everyday People</div>
<div>My name is ACE</div>
<div>Hello world</div>
</div>
And parsing the DOM to store the xpath infor in array 'arr'
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery/js/xpath-selector.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function get_XPath(elt)
{var path = '';
for (; elt && elt.nodeType==1; elt=elt.parentNode)
{var idx=$(elt.parentNode).children(elt.tagName).index(elt)+1;
idx>1 ? (idx='['+idx+']') : (idx='');
path='/'+elt.tagName.toLowerCase()+idx+path;
}return path;
}var arr = Array();
htmlDoc=document;
x=htmlDoc.documentElement.childNodes;
for (i=0;i<x.length;i++){
arr.push(get_XPath(x[i]));
}
</script>
And later on in the script using the values stored in 'arr' to perform some functions like showing,hiding or changing content of nodes.
Code:
<script>
for(i=0;i<arr.length;i++){
//catch the object reference with the xpath info
$(arr[i])
}
</script>
But in the snippet above,I'm getting a object but unable to I'm unable to get the object reference..and use it for something like
$(arr[i]).text();
Any work on Jquery Xpath selectors?

Using my IE v.6 browser, document.write doesn't convert HTML entities
(e.g. ', &) to the appropriate character (though NS 6.2 works
fine).
Obviously I can get round this for particular entities by writing some
code to do the conversion before using document.write - but I need a
more general solution that will catch any of the HTML entities.
A trawl with Google has found a number of people raising the question,
but no answers. Any suggestions?
Is there no plug in that can convert html+css to a PDF document. I develop in PHP and I am having a huge headache trying to get this to work. The PHP PDF libraries that I have tested are not good with HTML, the conversion always fails.
