Document.write, HTML Entities And IE
Jul 20, 2005
Using my IE v.6 browser, document.write doesn't convert HTML entities
(e.g. ', &) to the appropriate character (though NS 6.2 works
fine).
Obviously I can get round this for particular entities by writing some
code to do the conversion before using document.write - but I need a
more general solution that will catch any of the HTML entities.
A trawl with Google has found a number of people raising the question,
but no answers. Any suggestions?

I am totally new to jQuery and no good knowledge on javascript. However, I was assigned a task, to convert a javascript program to jQuery due to compatibility problem on browsers like Chrome and Safari. My program originally use javascript xmlDoc.load('....') to read XML file, and then use document.write statement to write html tables on client side. Something like this (the sample below may got lots of syntax problem as I jut want to show the major part):
Code:
document.write('<TABLE >');
var y=x[0].getElementsByTagName('NoOfRows');
for (i=0; i<=noofrows-1 && i<=y.length-1; i++){
document.write(' <TD>');
document.write(z[j].getElementsByTagName('RecordDetails')[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
}
Now I changed to use jQuery, I can read the XML file elements. However, when I try to write the table, it failed:

I need some help with Javascript and HTML entities. I am writing some code and I need to use quite a few HTML entities on alert boxes (messages in different languages)
Unfortunately Javascript displays the entities and not the equivalent caracther.

I have a large set of input fields (of checkboxes and radio buttons), and aside each set, is a clear button (just looks like text you can click on) that clears any input next to each of the input fields. When no input buttons are selected, the HTML entities that depend on them are supposed to disappear, and this works on load.
My question is how does one easily incorporate that clear button so that it tells the listeners already in action to clear those entities when they click on clear, and without having to manually do it over again with the clear button, if that makes any sense.

I'm trying to write/find a regular expression for finding ampersands but not HTML entites.I have this which finds entities but can't figure out how to ignore entities and return unmatched "&"
&[^s]*;
Test string: This is sample test containing a bunch of & and entities. Do you shop at: M&S? &x#1234;
I want to HTML encode the non-entity ampersands for insertion into XML e.g.
"bunch of & and" --> "bunch of & and"

I need to figure out a pattern that can match each letter of the message, but leaves all the html entities alone.
For example, I have a input like this:
<div>
This is the content < Hello >
</div>
Just as an example to make it more clearer, If I wanted to replace the all letters of the message with the number "1" I would have this result:
<div>
1111 11 111 1111111 < 11111 >
</div>

I am using the ajax method in JQuery to return an XML response from a URL location. The method looks like the following:
$.ajax({
url: '../DSMO/lb.asmx/GetAvailableDocListAuth',
cache: false,
type: 'POST',
[Code].....
OK so if I use repsonseText responseXML or just try and traverse msg it will not work. The problem is the body of my XML response, all of the tags ('<' and '>') are getting escaped to html entities ('<' and '>') So it becomes a malformed XML document that is not readable. I even tried using the Javascript function replace to go through and replace with no luck.
Even stranger if I access the web service through the browser, the XML is just fine!
The server is Windows Server 2008 running IIS 7 and I am programming of course in HTML and newest version of JQuery.
The browser I am testing on is Firefox with FireBug.

Why doesn't this work? The input field doesn't show up at all. I know I'm just missing something really simple here.
<script type="text/javascript">
day = day.getDay()+1;
month = day.getMonth()+1;
year = day.getYear();
newdate= month + '/' + day + '/' + year;
document.write('<INPUT name=Date value='+ newdate + '>');
</script>

I have a client that has ads on her website that really slow down the site. These ads are called by an off site javascript file and I want to use a jQuery(document).ready or similar method to call these files after all of the site content has loaded. But these files contain document.write functions to add more javascript files. Since I want to load the files after everything else has loaded, this in turn makes the page blank and then loads the ad. Is there a way to position where document.write will write to?

I'm working on a website that will basically embed a widget/frame sent by a handler into a user's current page. The user basically adds a script tag to where they would like the HTML to be. The script tag has their settings and is basically a document.write that calls all the code that we want displayed.So here's my problem. We have a map that we need to add in a specific section, and to get the map we have to call another script tag. So we end up having a script tag (map) embedded in another script tag (the code for the widget/frame) or we end up having to document.write inside a document.write.
Now this works just fine and as expected in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. However, Internet Explorer and Opera wait until the first document.write is completely finished before calling the embedded one. Of course the problem with this, is that it takes the map out of the document's flow and just appends it to the bottom left of the page. Since the rest of the page has already been called, there's no way to move the interior "map" script.Any ideas? Basically just trying to figure out how (if even possible) to render an embedded script tag in Internet Explorer and be able to place it properly. I've tried everything that I can think of, including AJAX and Google's unescape script.

I'm pretty new to JavaScript and am having a problem. I thought what I am doing should work but it isn't.
Basically I have a form that people can put a quantity into. e.g. A, B, C.
I have a JavaScript function called comput that assigns values e.g. A = 5, B = 7, C = 9. Here is the start of the script:
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function compute(form){
var A = form.A.value * 5;
var B = form.B.value * 7;
var C = form.C.value * 9;
I then declare a variable to add them up:
var ans = A+B+C;
return;
}
</script>
This part of the script works fine. Now I want to write the ans variable. So I use:
<script>
<!--
document.write ("Your total is "+ans+"")
// --></script>
But it isn't working. Any ideas?

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.

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?

I need to eliminate the document.write for this bit of code
copyright=new Date();
update=copyright.getFullYear();
document.write("Copyright © 2001-"+ update + " " );
var showtext = "Tecknetix";
var mailpart1 = "webmaster";
var mailpart2 = "tecknetix.com";
document.write("<a title='email tecknetix' class='hov' href=" + "mail" + "to:" + mailpart1 + "@" + mailpart2 + ">" + showtext + "</a><br />");
The reason is now I'm using <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8" /> with xhmtl 1.1
Since I've changed the MIME type to application/xhtml+xml from text/html the document.write is invalid now.
Here is a page with a demo on it so you can see how they changed document.write("<link rel="stylesheet" ...") around.
http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/2003/03/19/dive-into-xml.html
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 understand that it is bad practice to use document.write inside a function as it can override other functions, so what would be better practice, writing to a <p> element, using document.writeln or are there others?

I have a HTML document
displayed in an iframe. Controls on the HTML page are data bound to an
XML file. I use a drop-down list to move between the different
recordsets in the XML file and hence change the text displayed in the
HTML page.
I use JavaScript to display the contents of the iframe in a separate
window. The new window displays the HTML page. The problem is that
contents of the HTML page are always for the first recordset in the XML
file even when I change to a different recordset.
I found that if I omit the document.write from the code then it works
OK. Am I doing something wrong? Here's the JS code:
function displayFullScreen() {
newWindow = window.open("", "newWin",
"toolbar=yes,location=no,scrollbars=no,resizeable=y es,width=screen.width,height=screen.height,left=0, top=0")
newWindow.document.write((getRframedoc()).document Element.outerHTML)
newWindow.document.close()
}

Hi, this snippet of code gives an error in Firefox but works just fine
in IE.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function start(){
statusarray = new Array();
document.write("Test"); // This outputs text as expected
statusarray[1]="0"; //FF says that statusarray is undefined.
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="start()">
</body>
</html>
The error only occurs if the document.write line is present. If I
remove that or comment it out, then it works just fine.
Don't worry about the utter lack of functionality, I have only drilled
down to the troublesome code for this example.
