Is there anyway to call an executable on a local disk (W2K) with arguments
from javascript? Or from any other language for that matter?
We are trying to create a simple 'portal' page to a group of our c++
applications via a webbrowser. To open the applications however you must
pass them command line options.
How can I pass arguments to a function as elements of an array.[code]
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do I create a link on a Web page on my hard drive that will run an executable file on my hard drive?
For example, let's say I create runpoodle.htm and save it to my hard drive, and let's also say I have an executable file on the root of C named c:poodle.exe.
How can I create a link of some sort on runpoodle.htm that will run poodle.exe on c: ?
Better yet, can I specify a data file that poodle.exe will open after it starts?
I use Windows XP Pro, and when I create a simple href anything like this
<a href="file:c:poodle.exe"> Run POODLE.EXE</a>
the result is that Windows opens a security warning box asking whether I want to download poodle.exe....
I have a form button with id="submit". When pressed, ClickGeocode(credentials) is called. This works fine and dandy with: $('submit").click(ClickGeocode) Despite there being no indication that the function takes an argument 'credentials'. So when I want to call the function at some point in my code, I should be able to do something like ClickGeocode(credentials) ... no? However, my issue is that credentials isn't once defined in my code - it is part of Bing Maps function... like so:
function ClickGeocode(credentials)
{
map.getCredentials(MakeGeocodeRequest);
}
So why does it work using .click(), and how can I call the function without user interaction (simply somewhere in my code) even if 'credentials' is not defined?
I embedded a javascript in HTML and tried to open the file using

I need to be able to pass a variable to a CSS argument after computing the size of the viewers window height. I am using an alert function to test it, but so far it won't populate.

I am a newbie and am writing a function. I want the function to refer to an arrays elements to get the biggest, but I dont know how to do this.
Here is the code:
what I am trying to do, is get the array elements to be called and give me an answer. Will I need to add the array to the function? It is further down the code after the function at the moment. Or will I need to add the array elements to the function?
I know in different languages (VB.Net,C++,C#) how to pass an argument to function in this code:
<html>
<head>
<script language="Javascript">
<!-- hide
function openNewWindow() {
popupWin = window.open('[URL]',
'open_window',
'menubar, toolbar, location, directories, status, scrollbars, resizable, dependent, width=640, height=480, left=0, top=0')
} done hiding -->
</script></head><body>
<a href="javascript:openNewWindow();">return to front page</a>
</body></html>
I need to add several links in my page, so I need to pass indexes from links to main function, so I can open images in specific folder with indexes filenames. For example in vb
Subname("text_to_pass_to_SubName")
Public Sub SubName(ByVal function_text as string)
End Sub
I have a setup where I need to get the function calling a function, which works fine, I just use arguments.callee.caller.Now I need to take it a step further and get the object that the function belongs too.
For example in a onclick="parentObj.someFunction()"
parentObj.someFunction calls some other function. I need a way to know that parentObj was involved, just getting someFunction isn't enough because parentObj has properties that are used in someFunction. To make it more interesting lets say I can't pass any more parameters to someFunction, so I can't pass parentObj into it as an argument.
Say I have a tag like this
<SCRIPT src="navbar.js?width=580"></SCRIPT>
This is just a very simplified example.
In my navbar.js file, how would I retrieve the arguments such as "width"?
ie
var width = /*?????*/;
document.write("<TABLE width="+width+">");
I'm trying to replace an element's style on the fly like this
Code:
var sc = document.getElementById("someElement").innerHTML;
scorecard = sc.replace("class="thisclass"","style="width:"+width+"px;float:left;margin-top:"+topmargin+"px;"");
where width and topmargin are values that I calculated earlier.This works fine in all browsers except IE. The trouble, I'm quite sure, is with the escaped quotes " in the arguments of the replace() function.What this seems to be doing (in IE) is just just returning the same string sc, but with the quotes stripped off of "thisclass".
I have a main page that opens a pop up window when the user clicks a
link. The pop up window is a menu and when the user clicks the item, it
populates a form input element on the 'parent' window.
My question is: this new populated form element is the value that I use
to change a style.
onchange does not watch this form element because of getelementbyid, so
it doesn't trigger the function needed to change the style. onchange
works fine if I just manually input a value into the text box.
Any other way to fire the function off when the user picks their
selection from the pop-up window? I was thinking I could use
window.opener.function()? But how do I pass the form from the parent
window? From the pop up window, I don't use this.form, what do I
use?something like window.opener.form[0] ?
I'm calling `setInterval(myfunc, 100);`.
That function receives one parameter which seems to be -3, 0, 3, 6 or 9.
This isn't a problem, but I'm wondering what it is. Does someone know?

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>

I tried a function like that
function (test) {
var a=document.form.test.value;
}
test is the name of text fields. I doesn't work (undeclared test variable)
What I want is a loop that will call the same function until it reaches a certain number (let's say 10). Then I want the function to take the parameter passed (the number) and use it in the function where ever you see a 1 below. Basically I want it to run on each element of the pub_name array and from the info gathered define a variable based on the number (example: display_pub_name_*). I have run some tests .....
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a script that will cover cross-browser limitations in adding event listeners to elements. I have found plenty of resources to add a listener but can't find any way of assigning a function containing arguments. Here is what I have so far:
/* Attach events regardless of browser */
function addEvent(obj, evType, fn)
{
if (obj.addEventListener)
{
obj.addEventListener(evType, fn, false);
return true;
}
else if (obj.attachEvent)
{
var r = obj.attachEvent("on"+evType, fn);
return r;
}
else
{
return false;
}}
/* Contains all attachments to be made on page load */
function load()
{
item = document.getElementById('toggleControl');
addEvent(item, 'click', toggle);
item = document.getElementById('alertLink');
addEvent(item, 'click', runAlert);
}
/* Add event to page load and assign load() function */
addEvent(window, 'load', load);
The actual functions for toggle and runAlert are in a seperate .js file, but are standard functions. the problem is that I can't find a way to perform the equivalent of:
item = document.getElementById('toggleControl');
addEvent(item, 'click', toggle('toggleID'));
It simply does not work.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHow can I create a function that takes optional arguments?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI use addEventListener and I cannot (or at least don't know how) pass arguments to the function.
Let's say we have a function:
function warning(arg1, arg2) {alert('Argument 1: ' + arg1 + ', Argument2: ' + arg2 + '.');}
It's possible to have:
onclick="warning('my argument 1', 'my argument 1');" as an html attribut.
But I think it's not posible to do it like this (still the same function):
el.addEventListener("click", warning('my argument 1', 'my argument 1'), false);
So how can I pass arguments to the function?
