how can we get a return from a value not yet set, like the behaviour of the prompt and confirm dialogues? specifically in regard to the xmlhttprequest file load methods, or to send a click event to a file object and return its value once user interaction's occurred.

On my page I have a jQuery modal dialog. It contains a checkbox associated with a product being shown in the dialog. Checking the checkbox is supposed to post the product's title to the server (using $.post). During my tests, I opened the dialog for different products, checked the checkbox and quickly pressed Esc key to close the dialog and move on to another product. What I've noticed is that if current product title to be posted is different from one sent just prior to it, things get posted quickly and without a loss. However, if I am sending the same data as what was sent with a previous request, this data doesn't make it to the server if I do this quickly -- I consistently lose data. But if I allow a couple of seconds to pass before pressing Esc key, the data (duplicate data) gets delivered fine.This happens only in Firefox (I've tried this in v. 3.6). IE 8 and Chrome 4.0.249.89 beta (38071) (it was supposed to be 5.x, though) behave as expected -- post data without delay or concern with duplicate data.

I have a page with a div on it. The div displays a user comment. When
the user logs into this page, their current comment is pulled from a db
and displayed in the div. The user can edit the comment through a
pop-up that contains a textarea. When the user hits OK on the pop-up,
the text in the textarea is sent to a function on the main page. The
function inserts the text into the div's text node.
Please don't ask why I'm making this so complicated - there are other
things going on on the page and the pop-up that are irrelevant to my
problem.
Everything works perfectly except when the user puts carriage returns
in their comment. For some reason I can't get the carriage returns to
show up in the div. BUT! When they view the existing comment in the
div (the one pulled from the database) the carriage returns are
displayed. That initial display does not use any javascript - it's
just php so the page is initially rendered with the text in the div.
So it seems that when I programmatically put text into my div, the
carriage returns don't show. But if the page is rendered with the text
already there, the carriage returns do show.
This seems like it should be so simple, what am I doing wrong??? Do I
have to replace the carriage returns with a different character (e.g.
<br>,
,
,
,
)? Or is there a css setting for the div?
I'm trying to figure out the width of all the ul element inside a li, which works fine for the subnav. But the ul for the subsub nav always returns a width of 0, which is incorrect.You can see an example on this page. The second tab is the one that has a sub navigation.I use a simple line like this to get the with of the ul element
Code:
var e_size = $("#testnav ul").width();
//shows 95 with alert

I developed a Grid that sometimes resides within a table. The Grid is created with the DOM and inserted in its parent element. Problem is that IE returns offsetWidth/offsetHeight 0 when you check its offsetWidth.
For example, the following code will return 0, while Firefox returns its correct width.
Code:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td id="myCell">
Some text goes here...
<script type="text/javascript">
alert(document.getElementById("myCell").offsetWidth);
</script>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I read somewhere that IE renders the table once it has read the entire table, so my guess is that offsetWidth returns 0 because the table is not yet rendered and its not part of the DOM?
Anyway, if anybody would know how to avoid this it would be great. This problem does not appear inside a DIV, but in this very case it must be inside a table...
I want to know how to find out the viewport height in IE. I have been trying to use document.body.clientHeight, which is supposedly exactly what I am after, but the results were always way too small to be the correct one.
As a test, I whacked a div in my page and made it 4000px tall, and ran document.body.clientHeight from IE's debugger and it returned a number over 4000px. It seems as thought clientHeight is actually returning the total height of the document, not the viewport size.
I have a homework assignment which is pretty simple. It is a grade calculator that uses arrays to gather the grades from the user. This is what I have for the problematic section:
var homework = new Array(2);/* The grades entered by the user for Homework 1, 2, and 3 */
var project = new Array (3);/* The grades entered by the user for Project 1, 2, 3, and 4 */

My problem is the document.write portion of the code, where it is supposed to return either homework[0], project [0], or exam[0], it instead returns undefined. There is no problem with any other subscript. And yes, it does successfully prompt me for each of the [0] subscripts in the first part of the code. Am I just missing something that is right in front of my face? Does all arrays not start with the [0] subscript?

I'm working on a project that requires me to take numerous classes and put these within a list-item. I have been trying to do this with different methods, such as before, insertBefore and Prepend. All these methods have had the same result.

I'm brand new to jquery, and am trying to set up a dynamic navigation dropdown which is populated with XML by our system (which I can't change.) For some reason, IE6 is showing space where the unused <li></li> tags are. I am trying to create a jquery code which will detect whether or not a link is present in the <li> so I can turn the display off or on dynamically. The relevant jquery code is here:[code]It should eventually appear like this, the way it does in Firefox due to CSS styling:[code]Which means that somehow, it is reading the <a> even when there isn't one.

I have a simple XML file that looks something close to this:
<presence id="12345">
<status>in a meeting</status>
<priority>1</priority>
[Code]....
If you require a bit more info on the project itself, here's a rundown: This xml file is created by an internal chat app at my office. Each employee has their own xml file listing their current availability and status (hence "in a meeting"). This will be used to determine the availability of certain individuals in the building without having to be logged in to the chat app. That's why there's multiple xml files going to be used (roughly 10-15 in the end).
This is driving me freaking crazy. I have a RegExp, and a String. When I alert RegExp.test(String), I get "true." Sweet. Then I run String.replace(RegExp, ""), in an attempt to get rid of whatever was matched. But that does not change the string at all.
Am I misunderstanding replace, or what?
I've got an image that when it's loaded it initiates a function that runs the first block of code below which checks if the image is part of a series. If it is it searches for the number in the source file. If it's the first image (which doesn't have a number) it sets the matches to 0

I'm building an application that uses calendars extensively, I have single calendars returning nicely but I working on a section that can return multiple calendars (eg. yearly overview) between certain date range ranges. It's working fine but the calendars are appended to the div when the server responds and not in the sequence they are called.
Here's the code I'm using:
Code:
function displayMultiCalendars(date1,date2,a)
{
$.get("<?=base_url();?>cal_center/get_date_range_total/"+date1+"/"+date2, function(data) {

I have four images:
Code:
<div class="main_view">

<a href="#"><img src="images/4.png" alt="" /></a>

When rotateSwitch() is called on launch, it assigns the second image to the $active variable (given that the first image was given active class in beginning of script). Then rotate() function is called and we get 1 (2-1) and then multiply by imageWidth. Now the second time the rotateSwitch() function is called, we should get 2 (3-1), but the alert still only returns 1 and the fourth time it only returns 1 as well:
Code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".paging").show();
$(".image_reel img:first").addClass('active');
var imageWidth = $(".window").width();
var imageSum = $(".image_reel img").size();
var imageReelWidth = imageWidth * imageSum;
$(".image_reel").css({'width' : imageReelWidth});
rotate = function(){
var triggerId = $active.attr('src').substring(7,8);
var image_reelPosition = (triggerId - 1) * imageWidth;
alert('the value is ' + triggerId);
$(".image_reel img").removeClass("active");
$active.addClass("active");
$(".image_reel").animate({
left: -image_reelPosition
}, 500);
};
rotateSwitch = function(){
play = setInterval(function(){
$active = $(".image_reel img.active").next();
if ($active.length === 0){
$active = $('.image_reel img:first');
}
rotate();
}, 7000);
};
rotateSwitch();
});
Suppose we have following javascript codes: Case 1.
var foo = function (){
var x = "hello";
var bar = function () {
alert(x);
} return bar;
} var bar_ref= foo();
document.write(bar_ref()); // it pops up "hello" and print-outs "undefined".
If we modified above code slightly, shown as follow: Case 2.
var foo = function (){
var x = "hello";
var bar = function () {
alert(x);
} return bar();
} var bar_ref= foo();
document.write(bar_ref()); // it only pops up "hello".
As you can see, Case 2 modified the return value from "return bar" to "return bar()," which won't cause the "undefined" output. To me, it looks like when the JS interpreter executes the line "bar_ref();" it triggers the execution of function "foo", besides both "return bar" and "return bar()" do the same job which is to execute function body of "bar".
The only difference is that after the execution of function bar, its function body does not exist anymore, so when the interpreter executes the line "return bar;" it follows the function identifier "bar" and ends up with "undefined". This is why the Case 1 gives us "undefined", but I am not quite clear about why the Case 2 can trace down to the function body of "bar". Do you have any ideas about such difference outputs?
