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?
I'm trying to create a player stats page, for my gaming server. I spoke to a guy who knows a little about javascript, and he told me there's a way to use document.location.href to direct to a custom page URL.
For example, if I search for a name, and the results are displayed. I want to click the players username, and be directed to. [url] without the "username.html" actually existing.
I heard it's possible, and it would save me a lot of time because I don't want to have 20,000+ individual pages, one for each username.
I have some code that changes a PDF file in another frame using:
parent.frame.document.location.href = "PDF File"
This code works fine the first time it is called. But if a PDF file is in that frame and the code is called again IE gives me an error:
"no such interface supported"
I have used this code for the past 5 years and it has worked fine with Adobe Acrobat 4-6 it is only 7 that started to cause me grief. It is only IE that has this problem, Netscape seems to work fine.
I have checked the web and talked to Adobe and have yet to find a solution.
Im currently creating a Table with 2 frames (table in top, last row clicked in bottom)
<html> <frameset rows = "60%, 40%"> <frame src = "table_driver.php" name = "A" id = "FRAME1"> <frame src = "bottom_row.php" name = "B" id = "FRAME2"> </frameset> </html>
In bottom_row.php I have one object, a [obj = new TableData()]. onClick of a row in FRAME1, obj is initialized to what was clicked and the row is changed.
anyways currently I have it working but want it such that it can work with multiple frames, with a location parameter.
I have been trying to get the code below working for 9 hours now. Finally, I decided to test the same code on another sever, and it works fine! I have no idea why the same code would work on one server, but not another.
The code is self-explanatory, I created a button that when clicked will navigate the user to a link (#hit1).
Code: <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> function firstHit(){ document.location="#hit1";
The code below will enter the function when enter key is pressed, and will activate the alerts but will not send to the new page using document.location
the onclick calls the function and sends to the new page?
<script language="javascript"> var ZIPS ="07071"; var ZIPS2 ="07960"; var zipArray = ZIPS.split("/");
I have an intranet web page with links to all kinds of Microsoft Word document that we use at my work, so my co-works can go to the web page when they need a special document. However, when they click the links the documents are of cause loaded in the web browser MS Explorer and not opened in MS Word, which is annoying.
Are there any tricks - in VBScrip, JavaScript, Java or simply in HTML, that let me load a Word-link in Word and not in Explorer?
I need to get the domain of the page (mydomain.com) There seems to be 2 variables to get this info. document.domain & window.location.host - Both are set in FF & IE. So whats the difference between these ?
I've got a little Quizzer program that asks a question in the upper frame of a frameset and then lists the answer in the lower frame. Answers can be plain text, straight html, a sound, or a LINK. I have a function that builds the answer frame using document.write(among other things). This code works fine until you encounter a link. It dutifully displays the link in the lower frame but the very next question builds the newContent perfectly but does NOT write it to the frame even though it appears to execute it.
In searching answers to my quest, I have been looking for a method using document.write to display the thumbnails in one division while showing text about the thumbs in another division.
All I've seen so far is that document.write('does this') and that's it. Nobody expands on this and explains what else you can do with it. It's like they're more interested in showing you the ads than the information you need.
Code: <a name="loc"></a> <a href="#loc" onClick="document.location.href='#loc' document.location.reload(false);return false">Click here to go to your location</a>
When you click onto the link you should go to the page location marked by the anchor tag "loc", however, upon clicking you go to the top of the page and never redirected to the exact spot where your anchor tag is located. Why is that? I'm using IE6 (per requirement) as my platform.
I have to change dynamically all hyperlinks, when the html-page is loaded at the client. This works fine, except in the following scenario:
When the innerText of an anchor contains an '@', the InternetExplorer changes the innerText-Property to the HREF-Property. I have checked this with MoZilla/FireBird and Opera and there is no problem!
To explain, what i mean, see following example: function atTest(){ for(var i=0; i < document.links.length; ++i) { document.links[i].href = document.links[i].href; }
}
Now you need some anchor tags - notice the '@' as inner Text:
<a href="http://www.somelink.org/">Text before @ and after</a><br> <a href="http://www.somelink.org/">Text before @</a><br> <a href="http://www.somelink.org/">@ before text</a><br> <a href="http://www.somelink.org/">Text before at and after</a>
If you load the page, InternetExplorer will display the HREF-Property instead of "Text before @ and after" - all other elements are shown correctly! It doesn't bother other browsers: Opera/MoZilla shows _even_ the first element with innerText.
My system: Windows XP SP1, InternetExplorer SP1, Firebird0.7, Opera 7.23
Has anybody out there an idea, why IE behaves like this? And how I can work around this?
I am writing a modification to Invision Power Board that makes replying to post via Ajax.
The "Submit" button is being overrun by Prototype's observe function. When the custom function is executed, I run Event.stop(e) to prevent the actual form from being submitted and reload the page.
I have developed and tested on Safari but users began to report bugs in IE, after investigation I discovered that the line
Code:
Is making IE execute all the code after it, and then execute its own onclick() function as if Event.stop(e) was not there. Commenting this line fixes the problem, the page is not reloaded, but this line is vital to the code.
So why do I need to set the anchor? To support the back button function after a user makes an ajax reply, pressing Back should hide the new content, and pressing Forward should make it visible. (e.g. every time the anchor is changed) This all works nicely. But not in IE.
This only happens the first time the page is visited ever, or clearing cache and visiting it again. Reloading the page fixes the problem but this is not normal behavior and users shouldn't have to reload to use the Ajax fast reply...
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();
