View 1 RepliesHTML Code:
<body id="body">
<p id="w">
<p id="x">
<p id="y">
<p id="z">
<input type="button" value="Check parent!" onclick="checkParent(this)" />
</p>
</p>
</p>
</p>
</body>
Code:
<script>
function checkParent(obj0){
alert(obj0.parentNode.parentNode.id);
}
</script>
When I click the button, it alerts "body" ( In FF and IE6 ). But I want that function to alert as "y" since the tag <p id="y"> is the parentNode.parentNode of <input>. The function somehow skips the tags
HTML Code:
<p id="w">
<p id="x">
<p id="y">
I'm doing a very simple expand/collapse function using 'slideToggle'. The button that triggers this event simply says 'Expand/collapse'. I want this text to change depending on whether an element is visible or hidden.

An interesting thing is happening. My table doesnt have 'TBody', but
the elem.parentNode.tagName is returning 'TBody' where elem refers to
the 'tr' tag.
Shouldnt it be returning 'table' ?
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
Also, its adding html tag even if its not present in the document (if I
lookup parentNode of body). Is there a way to tell javascript not to be
intelligent? (because I am building an xpath and I want to extract the
exact xpath from the real-world-html-document)
I would like to not have to write:
.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode
Instead I would like to just write something like this instead:
.parentNode(5)
to represent that there needs to be 5 .parentNode
I want to get the div with class "editrow" to change display and height when the div with class "col3" is clicked on the same li tag.
I have the following (not working) code.
<script
type
="text/javascript"

How can I remove the sibling of $this.parentNode?
Code:
input1[i].onclick = function()
{
var $this = this;
[Code].....
This works fine in FF and Chrome, how can I get to work in IE7?
function insertAfter( referenceNode, newNode )
{
referenceNode.parentNode.insertBefore( newNode, referenceNode.previousSibling);
}
I am getting this error on IE8; it is working nice on firefox, and I have to support IE. I found this page: [URL] And they identify as the problem occurring here: The error occurs in the 'install' function right here:
<quote from link>
var node = msg.jquery ? msg[0] : msg;
var data = {};
$(el).data('blockUI.history', data);

I have been using parentNode to delete rows from a table when clicking a button using:this.parentNode.parentNode.rowIndex Now, I have another case where I want to determine the row number to edit the row. This time, however, I've decided to use a link on the first column of the row. Because I wasn't using a button, I assumed that I could simply remove one of the parentNode's in the function call. But when I click the link I am getting a javascript error saying the parentNode.rowIndex is null or not an object. Listed below is the code I'm using.

Is there a way to position a dynamically created <div> inside a specific parentNode?
For example, if in my html code I have
<div id="test"></div>
When I create my dynamic <div>, can I created it to be within the above div? Or must it always be appended to the end?
i am starting a new project using Visual Studio 2010 ad using the same jQuery filesofa previous project that didn't cause errors.Visaul Studio always raisesthe same error in jquery.min.js Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'parentNode' is null or not an object I click on "continue" for that error message and the page loads fine and I don't see the javascript error icon in the bottom left corner of IE. This really baffles me. When I launch the application using Firefox I don't get an error in Visual Studio. Does anyone have any tips on debugging this jquery.min.js ? Has anyone seen something similar. Just starting this project and I already lost 12 hours troubleshooting this problem. I've looked at the html code and I can't see anything that would cause an error Here is the HTML.

I've put together what I think is an illustration of my problem at [URL] Quite simply, I need to be able to access the elements of the form without referring to them by ID as the whole form is intended to be cloned. I intended to do this using parentNode and childNodes[] together with the 'this' keyword. My understanding of 'this' in this context is that it should refer to the HTML element calling the function, i.e. one of the radio button inputs. However this gives the error "Error: this.parentNode is undefined"
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to have an element, a text string, change into a select
when a mouseover occurs and then change back to text when a selection is
made or when a mouse out occurs. I looked a t using dojo for this,
http://dojotoolkit.org, but this will end up on a production server,
where dojo is not installed and cannot be installed. So, I need another
solution. Can someone give some pointers on how this might be done?
Is it possible to change an element type with javacript for example onclick to change a text box to a hidden element or to a textarea?

View 9 Replies View RelatedMozilla-based browsers have watch and unwatch methods to detect change
in value of form elements (or any Javascript variables really). IE
doesn't support this.
Is there a a reliable cross-browser way alternative to this? Something
that will let me detect a change in value for a form element and
trigger my own callback function upon change?
Hopefully, something that is generic enough to be called as
"MyWatch(element)"!
I am trying to change an attribute of an element but can't figure out what the selector is to select it.
the page code is like this
<div class="slideshow" id="slideshow"><span class="image-wrapper current" style="opacity: 1;"><a title="" href="#2" rel="history" class="advance-link"> <img alt="" src="images/samples/1.jpg"></a></span></div>
I want to add a top css attribute to the img tag.
I tried many things such as
$('.advance-link:first')
$('.advance-link:firstChild')
but none seem to be working. The img gets generated by another script so I can't add an id or class to it. I figured an expert at selectors would be able to explain how to select it.
I am trying to add some styling to the first word of all of my H2 headings.
Now obviously this would be very easy to do using a span, but let me clarify my situation.
I am working on a Joomla! site, so a lot of my code is read from php and sql files. I thus can't go and wrap my text in a span by hard coding it since it is dynamic and read from a database.
I thus decided that manipulating it using javascript will be the simplest. The only other chice is to write a php script that does pretty much the same thing, but I prefer javascript.
So here is what I am thinking of doing:
I want to select all of the H2 elements from my document, get access to their text content, single out the first word, and then wrap it in a span. The span will have a class, which will then simply be styled using CSS.
I though I was on a roll, but is seems that I have hit a snag. I am able to select and edit a single element with an id, but not all of the H2 elements in my document.
I was using 'getElementById' and assumed I could simply change it to 'selectElementByTagName' at some point.
I then used 'innerHTML' to retrieve and manipulate the contents.
Here is my code so far, and it work to some extent:
Code:
It seems though that 'innerHTML' does not work with 'selectElementByTagName', and I can't seem to find a similar command that does.
I also can't use ID's since I can't manipulate the HTML (at least not without scratching through a whole mess of php). Even then I need to manipulate various elements on one page, so ID's are no good anyway.
So my question finally is this: Is there a similar command I could use, or am I busy going in the wrong direction?
Ok my menuBarContainer div wont change width or height... I've tried everything... whats stopping it?

How can I change the height and width of an element with Javascript? I have tried and so far I can only change either the width or height but not both, doing something like this…
Code:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type = "text/javascript">
function changeSize(){document.getElementById('test').style.height = '200'}
[code]....
And this works fine but if I try to change both height and width it doesn’t work. Doing something like this doesn’t work
Code:
function changeSize(){document.getElementById('test').style.height = '200' width=’200’}
I'm trying to find a way to change the CSS class for all my many input type elements with an onclick. Is this possible? The scenario I'm trying to fit it into is below (and condensed).
Ideally I'm looking to change the style for background-color onclick, black and white in particular (hoping that the solution would mean adding more colours later).

I have a JavaScript file which Adds and Removes elements when you click a button.
Adding stuff is okay, but removing elements is more complicated.
When you add an element you also add id=x. Each time you add an element x goes up one. For example if I click "add element" 5 times it would be like this:
HTML Code:
If I wanted to remove the thrid element then I would want the following divs to replace it, for example it should look like this:

I can't figure out how to do this, here is what I tried but it won't work

How do i set a page element as a variable and change it?
Ive googled the internet like crazy for an answer for this, but couldnt find it. Im trying to create an animation. My question is, how do i change the width of a div onclick?
Essentially, I want it to add one percent of the value of the width of the div every one second.[code]...
The competition is that there is a table width a heckbox inside and if the ckeckbox is checked the tr of this checkbox should get class "sel" and remove this class if it get unchecked. So the problem with the actual code is that everytime a new checkbox got checked the <tr> of the checkbox which was checked before losts the class "sel" and just the last checked checkbox will get it. Do you have an idea how the could must look like to get it work?
Html like this:
<table>
<tr><td><input type=”checkbox” class=”cbU”></td></tr>
<tr><td><input type=”checkbox” class=”cbU”></td></tr>
<tr><td><input type=”checkbox” class=”cbU”></td></tr>
<tr><td><input type=”checkbox” class=”cbU”></td></tr>
[Code]....
Even if the else will be deleted the problem is stil there so the failure must be in my code.
