If I want to detect a user's language, so that I can
change some text to suit them, how do I do that in
Javascript?
Or aren't modern browsers supposed to be able
to cope with more than one language on a page,
separated somehow by language identifiers,
and display only the appropriate text? Maybe
I was dreaming when I read that.
Is there an easy way to detect the local language setting of a client browser?
I would like to determine if the users browser is set to English, French, Italian or German language and display a message in the appropriate language but don't want to redirect user.
I know there are the event handlers onBeforeUnload and onunload, which work great 90% of the time.But what would happen if a user who was in the system had a power cut? Would it then be down to the database that stores who is logged in to go through logging users out who havent done anything for a while?
What is the correct way to work with multiple language JavaScript files? So how to use your PHP language variables in your JavaScript files? The way I do it now is create JavaScript files like 'script_js.php' like this:
The previous developer who has been working here used javascript on some forms and they're not functioning properly when opened with IE (any version)
The link to the form: Quote: http://www.avis.com.lb/reservation-inquiry?group=%27Group+V+(e.g.+Renault+Kangoo)%27&cor=%27Lebanon%27&corofres=%27LEBANON%27&hr=%2709%27&monthcoll=04
On firefox, it doesn't prompt any error and as you can see, it auto selects "Lebanon" as a country and it selects the date with 3 days in between till the return date. These don't work on IE, it just shows blank.

I am considering writing an online graphing utility. I plan it to be of good quality, such that an undergraduate university student can print it out and include it with a lab report. Data points will be entered, having been generated by another program; the utility will NOT accept functions for plotting--just the data points.
As far as I know, Javascript does not provide graphing functionality. Could somebody in this group please let me know what the best language to use for writing this utility.

I am trying to develop a form that will be used to place orders. The form contains a table that has 1/2 dozen columns. Three of the columns are named: Item-Name, Quantity, and Price.
Item-Name and Price are literals (readable only). Quantity is a number the user will enter. Multiple items can be selected.
At the bottom of the table, I would like to have a box called "Total". In HTML, is there a way to do arithmetic functions? In my case: QUANTITY times PRICE and add the amount to whatever was in TOTAL. If it can't be done using HTML, is there any script language I can use within the HTML page?
Basically, the script is an onMouseover slideshow which works fine. The problem is that in internet explorer, it says there is a syntax error relating to the javascript code. (this doesn't appear on chrome or firefox) here is the code:
Code: <script> <script language="JavaScript1.1"> var myimages=new Array() var gotolink="#" </script>
basically, by putting the script language here, IE8 is saying there is a syntax error! removing it stops the error but stops the script from working. What can I do here? If I put it in an external .js file instead (right now it is in the head of the HTML page) will this solve the problem?

I'm trying to use JS to move the cursor from my user login text field to the password text field - I've put the onKeyPress() event in the user input tag but then I press the Tab key the cursor doesn't move -
function detect_tab_key() { var key_code = window.event.keyCode; if (key_code == 9) { document.forms[0].frm_password.focus(); document.forms[0].frm_password.select(); } }
