Document.write Into Iframe Changes Charset Of Contained Form To UTF
Jun 2, 2004
I have a window (it's a modal dialog as well, but let's ignore that for now), where I need to write data into an iframe. Dynamically generated data. This data contains a form, this form is then sent to a server process, which expects it to be latin1 (iso-8859-1). It arrives as UTF-8. I have set the charset both in the container html (which contains the iframes) and the iframe in question to latin1, I once toyed with accept-charset of the form as well, all was ignored. So I started to recreate the experiment step by step.
HTML, meta tag text/html charset=iso-8859-1, FORM directly in it --> data is sent as latin1 Next I put the HTML for the form into its own HTML, put an iframe into the first documented and had its src point to the new HTML. Both the new and the old HTML had charset meta tags. Form was loaded into iframe, sent properly as latin1.
I removed both metatags, we're still sending as latin1. Next I thought it might have something to do with the dynamic nature of the iframe filling. I only assigned the iframe's src at runtime. Still, latin1.
Then I took the final step, and instead of reading an html into the src of the iframe, I wrote the code into the iframe with document.write. Everything LOOKED the same, but the server now receives the form data as UTF-8.
For this experiment I am using IE 5.5 (it is our compatibility base, another browser is not an option unfortunately - I'm a straight firefox man at home), and yes, the content has to be written into the iframe dynamically. I cannot create a temp file that I would load into it, or I would much rather not (it's a rather complex performance issue)
To clarify: Soon as I'm using document.write, all meta tags and or accept-charset (or what it was called) for the form are ignored completely.

I have an asp application contained within an Iframe. If the browser refreshes, the page within the Iframe reverts back to the login page and the user has to log on again.Is there a way to keep this from happening if a user clicks the refresh button on their browser?

I have put together a script which does this:
1. Make ajax request (via getHTTPObject(), no libraries is used)
2. Create an iframe with script, src is "blank.html".
3. use iframe.document.write() to execute scripts (inkluding document.write based scripts) in the iframe.
4. call parent window's document to clone the iframe content.
5. Append the content clone to parent body.
Works like a charm in all browsers but IE, where every version - including IE9 beta - hangs on iframeWindow.document.close() with empty cache, leaving the window/tab unresponsible. When I force quit, restart and load the page again (now in cache) it works.What I've tried already:
* Googled.
* called the ajax request callback manually with string instead of request.responseText - it works even with empty cache here.Removed document.close() - resulting in scripts in iframe not executing at all (again, only with empty cache, cached pages works fine).
* Tested to make the ajax request synchronous - no difference.
Console.log trace:
Code:
append() begin
unlimited-scroll.js:160 install() begin
unlimited-scroll.js:194 iframe begin[code].....

I have a form which calculates values and gives the user a total depending on their selection in the drop down box. At the moment the value is displayed in a text field and I have got all the javascript to do this.
What I would ideally want is to embed the total in the page, rather than a text field. The total appears to the user like it is normal text in a page, only it will update when the form values are changed.
I presume that I want document.write to do this? Does anyone know how I could do this/ or if there is a page that does this sort of thing where i can 'borrow' the code?

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 have created a page which pulls search results from various sites using PHP. It displays each result in a row in a table upon running.
I wanted to add a button saying "More information" at which point, a div would appear and load the associated link for that search result within an iframe within the newly appeared div. I've been able to get a div appear and disappear on button click but, I couldn't get it to dynamically load an iframe on click with the associated search results link.

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.

I'm trying to pass trough all the objects of a form but I have some text
inputs in a DIV and I have many DIVs like this on my form.
I'm doing something like:
for (i = 0; i < document.forms(0).item.length; i++) {
dosomethingwith(document.forms(0).item(i));
}
but document.forms(0).item.length are the objects that are outside the
DIVs...
How can I pass trough all the objects of a form if some of them are
contained in divs?

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.

A straight forward problem I think but my knowledge of JavaScript lets
me down.
I am taking in a lot of input using a form. After preparing an email
(FormMail.pl) I then use 'document.write' to create a new page with
all the users details nicely formatted. This includes checking radio
buttons, checkboxes etc.
Problem is as soon as I use the first 'document.write', the form and
all its contents are undefined. I have moved some of them to variables
for the time being but this is cumbersome.

I want to resize an IFRAME. It works nicely when I try to resize the frame with a commant loaded via
onfocus="if (parseInt(document.body.scrollHeight)<
parseInt(document.body.offsetHeight))
parent.document.getElementById('iframeID').style.h eight=parseInt(this.docume
nt.body.scrollHeight)+2+'px'
else
parent.document.getElementById('iframeID').style.h eight=parseInt(this.docume
nt.body.offsetHeight)+1+'px'" onload="this.focus();"
in the IFRAME body tag.
But I want is to resize the IFRAME when it's content is fully loaded. The
problem is that the content is put in via a javascript.
Even if I put the above lines "if.. else .." under the document.write
commants the this.document.body.scrollHeight will return 0px.
