is it possible to set document.designMode = "on" for an iframe element that is loaded into a page with AJAX? I've been searching for a solution for hours, it can't be set with <body onload=> since the page is already loaded, and window.onload does not work. Any ideas?? The reason i need to do this is because I have a web app that includes a multipage form and the pages of the form are controlled with XmlHttpRequest, i need the iframe element that is loaded to act as a rich text editor.
I'm trying to build a web page where the user can insert text dinamically. When the user hits a button, a new text box is created and the user can insert text into it.
It's working nice with Firefox 1.0, but it's not working with IE 6.0.2800.1106 (W2K SP4) Code:
If the user presses enter and their cursor is in the middle of a <p>, i want to insert a <br> tag. If their cursor is at the end of the <p> tag's innerHTML, then i want to insert a new <p> tag.
I can insert both tags as I need, but I can't find a way to get the position of the cursor relative to its containing tag (just assuming there's no other markup in the <p>'s innerHTML, so that selection.parentElement() will return the <p> tag).
In the code below I have an iframe that acts as a WYSIWYG editor. On load a link is loaded inside the iframe. When you click the link a div opens that displays the URL of that link. Upon changing the link inside the DIV I want to update the href tag that I clicked.
I've experimented with pasteHTML/execCommand("inserthtml") however this only updates the link when you select the text before clicking (as opposed to just clicking on the link), otherwise it inserts a whole new link.[code]...
I have a few DIVs which contain text, and when the user double clicks on them, I want the DIVs to change into an interface where he can edit that text. So far, I managed to document.createElement and IFRAME and attach it to the DIV successfully. I could only get IFRAME.contentWindow.document.designMode = 'on'; working in IE. Here's the code: ("this" - is the DIV element)
[Code]...
As you probably can see I am also trying to set the DIV's innerHTML (the text, basically) as the editable text inside the IFRAME, but this too is not working.
I'm rewriting a cms for Mozilla and it uses designMode. My problem is that the cursor can leave the editing div-element so the functions don't work correctly.
How can I prevent the cursor from leaving this html-element?
I have a web app where I have created a div to masquerade at a textarea so I can add highlighting according to so rules. I rely on setting designmode=true. After certain amounts of idle time my code grabs the text from the div, which consists of tags and <span> tags and re-generates the html with new spans. The paragraphs and text stay the same. So far so good. But when the div "repaints" the insertion is set to the beginning of the div. I want it to visually stay put, meaning I need to somehow record where it was before nd then restore it afterwards. Problem is, I can't seem to get my head wrapped around how selections (Ranges, etc.) work. I've been googling around for the last day or so and have not yet seen the light.
I am trying to create a WYSIWYG editor for my site, but seeing as how every browser gives different results when using the execcommand method, I am trying to do my own insertions instead.
What I would like to do is create an iframe with designMode On to enable editing of the frame, but when someone does a command to bold text, I want to make a method which enters <b>Some Highlighted Text</b> into the frame where the user highlighted so it would appear bold and the source would have the <b> tags.
My issue is I have been unsuccessful in learning how to take the selected text within an iframe and surround it with tags. I was able to accomplish this in Internet Explorer using this code:
Except the resulting text would actually have the <i> tags appear, and the source would be:
Pretty retarded if you ask me since in no way did I want it to convert the tags into entities.
Anyway, if anyone could please direct me to a method in which I can successfully take selected text within the iframe and surround it with HTML tags in such a way that the formatting will actually show.
I've been able to successfully add event handlers to an iframe where designMode = "on". The scope of these events are at the document of the iframe (contentWindow.document). What I would like to do is actually bind events to elements w/in the document while designMode is on. I have tried various methods like using find(), bind() and or live() but seem to have hit a road block. I have tried the following w/nosuccess. In the examples below .doc() returns the iframe's document.
Suppose a HTML document has a iframe. Using javascript,I want to detect ,on load of the html document, whether the body of the iframe document is ready to be displayed.I want to be able to overwrite the the body contents (before it actullay loads) of the iframe.can I do it with jquery? say if ,HTML doc is
Normally an SVG document is loaded/parsed/interpreted inside an HTML document using an 'object' (or 'embed') element, although there are supposedly other ways too. The problem is, the SVG document must be static this way.
I want to use the DOM interface to build SVG dynamically inside an HTML document. I am guessing I can build it inside HTML within an 'object' (or maybe 'iframe'?) element.
My intentions/goals:
In Javascript, I construct an object 'embedSVG' which has properties and methods for creating valid SVG elements and setting their attributes and attribute values.
During construction, the SVG document is created with its root element. During debugging in FF 2.0 (I'll work on an MSIE-compatible format later), I am using the Mozilla DOM Inspector and comparing nodes when the 'object' element is loading a valid external SVG document, and when I am appending the child representing the SVG document created by the DOM functions.
However the child node (#document) does not specify 'svg' as the root element, but instead 'HTML'. Something is not working.
Here is the relevant code in 'ScriptTest.html' which is the HTML in which the SVG is supposed to be embedded. Below it is the relevant code for 'svglib.js' which is supposed to contain code for building the SVG dynamically.
What this code is supposed to do is load the HTML page and execute the anonymous script, and draw a navy blue-bordered yellow rectangle on a blank page. This is similar to the example in the SVG 1.1 W3C Recommendation on page 202 of the 719-page PDF.
I am getting an exception when embedSVG object placeInHTML() method is called: NS_ERROR_DOM_HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR. I find in DOM Inspector in spite of or after the exception that a document is placed as a child of the object element, but it is HTML, with a default 'head', 'title', 'body' elements placed.
Determine what the previous page was that the user was viewing, even if the user arrived at my site by through the use of a browser function (history, location bar, refresh, etc.). Is this possible?
I'm not wuite sure how document.history functions - what degree of privacy is given to the user and to what extent can web pages get URLs from the user's history?
I am trying to make a function run if the mouse is moved over the document but when using the object onmousemove it seems to run the code even if the mouse is still over then document, how can I make it so if the mouse is over the document but isn't moving then don't run the code but once the mouse moves run the code? This is the code I made to handle the mouse move collections.
[Code]..
But with this code it runs even when the user doesn't move their mouse and the notification box pops up every second as the code seems to think a still mouse is a moving mouse.
I was thinking about having a run once system but that would mean if the mouse moves it runs once and then if the mouse moves again the code will not run as it has already ran before.
I want to switch a big function from a document.onkeydown = function to a document.onkeypress = function, or vice versa depeding on the type of browser.
However it is quite a big function so it's pretty much out of the question to have it appear in full twice.
Any ideas how to change the target event (onkeydown/onkeypress) without writing the whole function twice?
I am working on creating a document where you check a bunch of checkboxes to select what to include, then click on a button. A function then opens a new window and writes the HTML code to run scripts in .js files to populate the page. Code:
I have been searching for a way to trap changes done to the document object (mainly by the function document.write();).
Example of code that doesn't work:
function myFunction() { ed.document.onchange = doFunction(document.body.innerHTML); ed.document.open(); ed.document.write('Hello'); ed.document.close(); }
function do_function(body) { alert(body); }
It only fires when the page loads, not when I change the text. You are free to use any event that works, but i think onchange was the one to fit this problem. The alert will write the initialpage, but will never write the tekst 'Hello' that is the new change.
Any javagurus out there know a solution to pick up any fired events triggered by document.write();
I am trying to write a bunch of text onto a new document using document.write() and somehow need to format it to include line breaks.
For example: Code JavaScript: document.write(Line 1); document.write(Line 2);
I have tried including and it does not work. I have also tried document.writeln() and that also does not work. From what I have found on the Internet, one (if not both) of those methods should have worked.
I have created a servlet that does nothing more than create a XML file.i have got some JQuery code that reloads the servlet to get the XML data.This works fine and i am able to load the data i want, the problem i have is that when the data is loaded to the jsp page it displays [object Document] in front of my output.
does anyone know of any javascript method that does the same job as document.write(), but not necessarily at the end of the document? For instance, insert some text inside an element that has a specific ID tag?
Code: <body> THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPED OVER THE LAZY OLD DOG <script type="text/javascript" src="testing.js"></script>
[Code]....
When I run the above files the original text on default.htm is wiped and replaced by the document.writeln text in test2.js. What I wanted to happen was for this text to be added to the default.htm page (and not wipe what was already there). I believe this is because the htm file has already parsed.
I know people say you should use innerHTML and not document.write or document.writeln. Unfortunately, I have no control over the contents of the first file (default.htm) or the third file (test2.js) but the content in test2.js will always be in either document.write or document.writeln format. So I cannot use innerHTML.
My problem is how can I (from within the second file, testing.js) ensure that the page is not parsed before the third file has finished.
I think only the Moz1.4 supports application/xhtml+xml
You can see it on my 4 page site. http://www.tecknetix.com/
In IE6 you can read the copyright notice but in Mozilla you can't. But in you go to view > page info in Moz - you can see application/xhtml+xml as the type.
I'm learning JavaScript, and I have learned very much of the language. But I don't know what the difference between document.write and document.writeln is.
Which is the better option to use when dynamically loading a page?
document.location.href = "newpage.html"
or
document.URL = "newpage.html"
My book says that Netscape depreciated document.location.href in favour of document.URL, but yahoo are using document.location.href. Also, is there a good online reference (up-to-date) of the DOM which includes stuff like this?
