Converting HTML Elements Stored Within XML To Usage Js Elements?
Jun 3, 2010
I have HTML tags stored in XML. I want to be able to use these HTML elements with Javascript, just as you can with elements in document.body. How can it be done? (And don't try and tell me I should use server-side because I have written it all for Javascript and the project is nearly complete minus this and there are practical reasons for not doing this server-side. After all, anything is possible with Javascript!)
Let me explain:
- I have HTML templates such as this [URL]
- I want javascript to populate these templates then add them to my page
- The only way I know javascript can get this kind of data is by parsing XML
- I want to parse the XML then be able to use the HTML elements just like those in document.body
- As far as I'm aware, XML is the only good way of storing data for javascript. I don't want to store it in javascript variables (too much multiline data with " and '). Nor do I want to build it using document.createElement("div")... etc
As someone not yet with any experience in computer science etc, please ignore my poor terminology! However, I'm not a beginner when it comes to javascript.
Here's the script concerned but I doubt it'll help you understand my problem: [URL]

I have a list for example
<ul id="applications">
<li id="id-1" class="util"></li>
<li id="id-1" class="app"></li>
<li id="id-1" class="util"></li>
<li id="id-1" class="app"></li>
</ul>
Then I want a select some of the list with some animate effect, first the all of the elements would disappear, then the elements that I wanted would display one by one the code:
$('#applications li').each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.hide("slow");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});
$('#applications li[class="app"]').each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.fadeIn("fast");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});
The final effect is that all the elements would disappear first but the element I wanted would not display? Then I think about the queue,before I use it I change a little about the code:
$('#applications li').each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.hide("slow");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});
$('#applications li')
.each(function (index) {
setTimeout(function (e) {
e.fadeIn("fast");
}, index * 100, $(this));
});
The yellow part is the different from the former one, the effect is that all the elements would disappear first, then all the would display again without any problem!

I have a page I am working and I am having some trouble with: I need to show and hide areas based on a radio selection. I initally started using the show / hide feature in Jquery but the problem is the elements need to be removed but then put back if the user selects the radio buttonagain as it has form elements that have validaion on them. The validation is still trying to validate the form elements becuase they are still on the page but just not showing. This is the radio group the user makes the selection from:
<input name="terms_usr" type="radio" id="terms_usr_1" value="1"/>
<label for="terms_usr_1">Credit Card</label>
<input type="radio" name="terms_usr" id="terms_usr_2" value="2"/>
<label for="terms_usr_2">C.O.D</label>

I have been trying to do the following. Using JS I want to create an
input element (text box) and attach a event listener. I have done in
in two different ways. The first is using xml elements directly (as in
e4x) and the second using the dom method createElement (which is much
clunkier to write). I'd prefer the former. I've included a stripped
down example below.
It appears that when creating an input element using the line:
var inputBox = <input type="text" size="30" />
that it does not have the same properties as when it is created with:
var inputBox2 = document.createElement("input");
because when an event listener is attached using addEventListener, an
error is generated on the first, but not the second.
My thoughts on this are either
1. The namespace for the input element is not correct and whether input
can have a listener attached. However, my guess is that it would not
show up in the first div box. Code:

So i've got a form that adds an element onto the page. This is working. When I try to remove said elements, that works. But the same 'delete' button doesn't work on elements not generated by javascript.
Code JavaScript:
function destroyQuickTask() {
$.post($(this).attr("href"), null, null, "script");

Here's my situation:
1. I have a web browser component that does not support Javascript
(well it does, but we've disabled it)
2. I have to display some HTML in it, where the user has a link titled
"Hide|Show Options" that can hide/show a particular section of the
HTML.
I have not found a way to achieve it without using Javascript or any
other scripting language.
Is it possible to do this using pure plain HTML?

Is there a possibility to find out the coordinates, relative to the whole
screen, or at least relative to the browsewindow, where an element ( e.g. link or
picture ) begins or ends?

This may be a repeat post, but I can't seem to find the answer in these forums. Here is the question: I have a div with id "someDiv". I am obtaining an HTML string via XHR and intend to insert it in the DIV. I use .html(theHtmlString) and it renders just fine. But the newly inserted elements are not in the DOM - either by name or id. How do I register them in jQuery?

Before the canvas tag you had to write a script to make a gradient for html element backgrounds. Now you can use canvas and it's as easy as ... well messing with canvas. I have this script. At one point I had the gradient img objects resizing so the gradient would not get skewed. it was simple. just set the height% at the opposite ratio of the canvas width/height. But I went to make some changes and the next thing i knew that no longer worked. I don't remember how I did it!! I'm going to have to start over if I can't figure it out. Here's the script. Canvas only.
I haven't adapted with excanvas for IE yet, but that's coming when I can figure out how I had the thing working right. It's a css issue. I had thought I put the img objects in divs that were sized and positioned and then set the images to width 100% height= 100%*((canvas.width-canvas.height)/canvas.width) So in my example, the canvas was 100 x 30 and the factor is 7 so it would resize the image 700% and the height would grow by the relative amount to the setting I had it. I'll try to figure it out, but there's the script working somewhat. I want to figure out a way to resize the img objects when the user resizes the page, but I want the img to always maintain aspect ratio. [URL]
<script>
/*ORIGINAL SCRIPT FOUND AT [URL]*/
window.onload = function () {
var canvas = document.getElementById('c');
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
var g = ctx.createLinearGradient(0, 0, 100, 50);
g.addColorStop(0, 'rgba(255, 255, 0, 0.5)');
g.addColorStop(0.5, '#0ff');
g.addColorStop(1, '#00f');
ctx.fillStyle = g;
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, 100, 50);
var data = canvas.toDataURL();
document.getElementById('i').src = data;
document.getElementById('EIMG').src = data;
var canvas2 = document.getElementById('c2');
var ctx2 = canvas2.getContext('2d');
var g2 = ctx2.createLinearGradient(0, 0, 100, 50);
g2.addColorStop(0, 'rgba(255, 0, 255, 0.5)');
g2.addColorStop(0.5, '#0ff');
g2.addColorStop(1, '#00f');
ctx2.fillStyle = g2;
ctx2.fillRect(0, 0, 100, 50);
var data2 = canvas2.toDataURL();
document.getElementById('i2').src = data2;
document.getElementById('DIMG').src = data2; .....

I got this javascript widget finished the other day. It's called BoxOver and allows floating captions over HTML elements, similar to overlib but uses less CPU and is much smaller (<10kb).
Would be super keen to hear any comments/criticisms on it. Also if anyone has any ideas for changes that would be cool too....

I have a HTML document with form. The form has several radio buttons. I want different elements of HTML (including <input> elements) to appear when each radio button is selected. Also, it is intended to show only those elements for a specific radio button. For example, if i select RB1, it shows me element div 1 and hides all others. If i select RB2, it hides element div 1 and shows element div 2, et cetera. So far it works fine with .style.visibility = 'hidden' and 'block'. Now, here comes the problem - each element appears below the previous element, they appear as they are in the HTML, no matter if i show the previous one. It looks pretty bad, because element positions are jumping as i select different radio buttons. How do i keep them in the same level, at the same position?

The following is a JS ticker.It works well, but I can't figure out why the text in italic tags is being printed with the tags, instead of becoming italicized.example is here:

I've gone back and forth on the best way to store data in HTML elements which is used to support JavaScript. For instance, I might have a bunch of rows each associated with a SQL ID, and upon clicking the delete element, want to grab the id, and send it to the server. I've successfully used the following three solutions, but would like to standardize on just the best.
Option 1 is technically valid, but seems excessive. Option 2 will work fine, but is considered by some as bad practice. Option 3 requires the extra step of splitting the ID from some identifier string, and care not to have the same record twice on the page.

I've lately stepped up a little problem with one of my personal projects that i am working. I'm writing an aspx webpage, which includes web user controls inside it.
The webuser controls are within a web form (id=form1 runat=server) which resides in the
main.aspx page.
1. First of all, is there a way to find a SPECIFIC control inside the webuser control (ascx)
using Javascript in the main.aspx?
2. If not (which i think it is), which is the best way to do it? The snippet i tried was this:

I'm trying to read an html file using the ajax() method, and then place content from that in certain places (e.g. 'info' in my 'InfoBox' section, 'details' in my 'DetailBox section). I'm very new to jQuery, and am pretty sure I'm screwing up the selector - it's the 'data' object used in the success callback (is that the right word?)

I have a problem with html select. i will be selecting an element from the select drop down, then i will click a button which will result in changing the position of this element with the element just above it.

"uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: # ".
I also wanted to know if this thing is possible in jquery or not..

I am generating HTML based on user actions (in this case, populating a table with the result from AJAX calls).
In my context, I have a link where there is a Quantity field, which I would like to be editable. When I create the html, I give a unique ID to each row, (to reference to a JSON object), however I am unable to get the ID for said row, seeing as the DOM tree is parsed on the pageload and doesn't seem to update when I add elements to the page.
This means that $(this).parent('tr').attr('id') is not returning anything at all.
How would I make it so I can retrieve the ID of my row (which was created/added to the page after it was parsed)?

Years ago I created HTML that employs checkboxes and textboxes. I am now writing JS with the intention of adding flexibility and limiting redundancy. I am not sure I truly understand how to correctly interact the two though. For example, one of my scripts have arrays that contain the names of the checkboxes and textboxes, with a 'for' loop to document.write() them to references within the HTML code.This does not seem to be working for me though. Here is what I have thus far (in short):
<script language="javascript">
var teamNames = new Array(3);
teamNames[0]="South Africa";
teamNames[1]="Mexico";
teamNames[2]="Uruguay";
[Code]...
I've left out a lot of the code (to include the teamAbbr array, but you get the points. I've tried moving the JS within the HTML body and playing with the reference syntax, but nothing so far.

I already make this line of code
$('#bank').click(function(event){
// request form
$('#middle').load('form/bank.html');
$('#butang').click(function(){
[Code].....
Which means, once after a link namely as "bank" is clicked,then it will extract the bank.html contentinto the middle div. And I already put a button ID named as "butang" over that bank.html. But why after the content is nicely rendered, I can't obtain the alert?
Hmmm... even when I clicking, clicking, and clicking many times at the button named as "butang", can not also give me an alert. How could I apply a jquery into a new html rendered as it firstly it's not there?
