Check If An XML Tag Exists Before Using To Write To HTML?
Nov 9, 2009
I'm making a table that is dynamically populated from XML data. One of the columns refers to an XML tag that is NOT required (hence the tag does not exist in every XML entry). How do I write a statement (if, else, or any other?) that says - check for the tag, if the tag exists, write the tag's data, if the tag does NOT exist, write "n/a".Here's the code:

<script type="text/javascript">
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
I have a textbox for entering URL. I validate that URL using regular expression. Now the problem is, How do i know whether the entered URL is exist or not.?For example, if user enter "http://www.daniweb.cam" rather entering "http://www.daniweb.com", how do i intimate them that the entered url is not valid.?
Using Javascript I need to figure out how to check if a URL actually exists. The problem is that the Javascript file may not always be there so I have I have to check every time I need it.
AJAX is not an option AND its has to cross browser compatible.
*NOTE The URL will always be pointing to a Javascript File
I'm using ccs3PIE with my site. What I want to do is check if a DOM element has a css property like border-radius and then add a class to it.
The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to check for the css property. I've been searching for it for a couple of hours now and I can't find anything that seems to work.
I'm not entirely sure this is possible. I hope it is, and it doesn't seem to far-fetched or impossible.
With JS, how would one go about checking if a user has DivX Web Player installed?
Usually people put in code within the embed, so if it the player doesn't load, it would have the message behind stating the fact. However I haven't seen this used at all with DivX, instead, you see pop-up boxes, whether installed or not, stating "Don't have DivX Web Player? Get it here for windows or mac"
I find this extremely annoying, and would never want such informalities on my website.
One holds the form and the other the php Query process.Im using a small piece of javascript to POST the value to my php Query process scriptbut im finding it difficult to display a result by fading in a div based on the query response.For example if i type in a tag and the tag already exists i want the php to check the table and the return a faeIN div to say it "already exists" otherwise fadeIN a div to say "Tag inserted into database"But i also am using a little more JS to clear the input field value as well.All this is done without reloading the page.So basically if the tag "People" exists in the MYSQL table then i want the div #i2 to fade in and say "Already exists!"My code is below:The HTML
In my page templates, which are included on every page, I have some javascript that is necessary to create some effects. However a couple of pages do not require the javascript, and because of this the page elements are not present. How would I add a check to ensure the element ID exists before running the javascript code? In other words, here's the code in question:
Code: var thevar = document.getElementById("theid").getElementsByTagName("LI"); Is there a conditional that can be wrapped around that to prevent the javascript code from running if no elements named "theid" exist?
I am having troubles finding a way to use JavaScript to see if a file exists before an ASP file upload script runs. Is there an Exists check for JavaScript? I thought I found an ObjectName.Exists but doing this did not work.
is there any way to check if any textarea or textfield exists in current document fg function checkifexist(){ if any textarea or textfield exist return true else return false }
I have a jquery dialog with a registration form in it. My problem is: I want to check if the username (input) already exists in the database, if so I want to return a error.
I know I have to use AJAX... but how?
Explanation of my form:
(this is a dialog) My form: Username: testuser ERROR: username already exists Password: Name:
Let me explain the issue which I'm facing with an example.My URL is http://localhost/~gaurav/dstreetmantra/register.php.One of the anchor tags in my navigation bar is <a href="register.php">Register</a>.The code needs to be able to check whether the value in this very anchor tag's href attribute is present in the URL.If it is present, the word 'Register' register would be highlighted. If not, some other link would be highlighted.As I said, I'm doing this for the navigation bar. This way, it'll check which of the links' 'href' value is present in the URL, and thus highlight that link.I'm assuming this can be done using Regex, but I do not know how to use it.
I am trying to find a way to search to see if there is a specific file located in the current directory on the server. If a folder contains file1.txt or file2.txt and depending on which file is in that folder change a certain javascript variable. What it comes down to is, is there a way to search for specific files on the server and limit that to the current directory/folder.
I have created a popup at the following page: http://suawg.osugv.servertrust.com
If i click on 18+ then it gets redirected to http://suawg.osugv.servertrust.com/default.asp
if i click on i am not 18 then it gets redirected to google.com
if i have chosen 18+ then the cookie should be created and if by mistake i again go to http://suawg.osugv.servertrust.com that is popup page it should get redirected to http://suawg.osugv.servertrust.com/default.asp
I would like to check the querystring to see if a variable exists.If groupid exists in the querystring and has ANY value then show a hidden div (#closedMsg). I do not care what the value of the groupid is I just want to verify that it has a value.If the url looks like this "www.somesite.com?groupid=" with no value for groupid, I do not want to show the hidden div.
Now I need a function included in the creatpage.js, that checks if a file exists,(eg drum000.html) if it does, go there, if it doesn't, try drum001.html
Code: var strUsersName = new Array("John","Mac","George");
I want to check, if the particular loggedin user for example Mac is available in the array list declared.How to check in a efficient way, if the particular user loggedin is available within the array declared.I tried this, but I am not sure, if it is correct:
Code: var strUsersName = new Array("John","Mac","George"); var L=strUsersName.length;
I create a div dynamically and set an ID attribute, e.g. myDiv.setAttribute('id',id_name); I am using these dynamic div to create layers (like popups) within my html. Each div has it's own iframe that loads a webpage within it.Sometimes I need to pass on variable from one div to another.In order to check if a div exists i do the following:
PHP Code: if (document.getElementById('my_div')) {
I am totally new to jQuery and no good knowledge on javascript. However, I was assigned a task, to convert a javascript program to jQuery due to compatibility problem on browsers like Chrome and Safari. My program originally use javascript xmlDoc.load('....') to read XML file, and then use document.write statement to write html tables on client side. Something like this (the sample below may got lots of syntax problem as I jut want to show the major part):
Code: document.write('<TABLE >'); var y=x[0].getElementsByTagName('NoOfRows'); for (i=0; i<=noofrows-1 && i<=y.length-1; i++){ document.write(' <TD>'); document.write(z[j].getElementsByTagName('RecordDetails')[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue; }
Now I changed to use jQuery, I can read the XML file elements. However, when I try to write the table, it failed:
This is probably going to show how new I am to jQueryI have a form with an input text field for entering a URL. The user will most likely paste a URL and I want to automatically verify it's status once the user leaves the field. Basically just make sure the page loads ok.I've found dozens of topics that are close to this, but my lack of jQuery skills is hindering me from adapting any of them properly.
