I am calling this javascript function:
Inside a nested div so that when a hyperlink is clicked it will show one element and hide the other like this snippet:
The functions works perfectly to expand one div element at a time inside the larger div container. The problem is that when I expand either of the elements by clicking the hyperlink...The larger div container(red gradient square) pushes everything past the background (solid grey square) and screws up the look of the entire page because the div, (which is a few levels up), containing the background is a fixed width, (as a percentage width would not work). I know the exact two widths the background would need to expand to dynamically as a result of the hyperlink being click by a user, but I do not have any idea how to do this from within the aforementioned javascript function I posted. Does anyone have any idea or help for me? It is very confusing as the div I need to resize is a full 3 levels outside of the function call I am working with. As an example the function call is happening in the last div of this flow:
And results in either a div#First or div#Second being generated inside the div#bio. I need to resize the div#greySquareH height property.
Btw the url to the page I am working on is Here. If you want to see any of the other code in the page it is there or I can upload it including the css if I haven't given enough info what I'm working on.

I have a switch case function that is working when I enter the spec. letter value, but it is not working when I try to use the array that I created. How I can get the total of the grade column to show up at the bottom after all the prompts have been run through and the letter grades have been converted to numbers.

I know this does not work, but hopefully you can see what I am trying to do. Only the first value is tested, but I want all of them to be.

Pretend there are like 10 more cases with more numbers with them. Currently this will only text to see if x is 0 or 42. How do I get it to test for the other numbers?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI use a CSS-Menu with this structure:
<div class="tabs">
<ul class="menu">
<li id="item-1">
<a href="#item-1">Tab 1</a>
[Code]....
Via CSS .tabs will be position:relative and the divs within the li are position:absolute to stack. This works fine.
Unfortunately, in some cases the content of li is too height and overflow the parent. I'm looking for a way to find out the displayed li and this height to apply it on the parent elements (CSS) height.
I'm trying to find a way to go through each instance of.div with class="promo" in order to get the parents height and assign it so both are the same.
I tried the following but could not get it to work. I'm a bit confused on how to go thru each and pass the height value. There are 4 div's with the promo class and each parent is a different height depending on the content. I want to build this so that the promo div will automatically adjust and have the same height as its parent.
$('.promo').each(function(){
$(this).height() = $(this).parent().height();
});
I have the following layout.
.panel
{
position:relative;
width:580px;
[Code]....
The parent (class="panelContent") div contains a child element that is generated/rendered last. This makes the child element #ReportViewer1 overlap the parent (class="rptViewer"). Can I jQuerytize the parent div to adjust it's size after the child renders so it is contained/displayed in the parent?
i want to set the second container's height according to the first container's.but how to achieve the height of the container dynamically.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create the following visual feature on my page (www.enviromark.ca/Collab/study.html). if you notice, there is a border-right: 1px solid grey; on the 'links' div. I would like to do the following:
onload, i would like the height of the 'links' div to be saved into a variable
i assume this would be done using a variation of 'var minHeight = document.getElementByID('links').offsetHeight'
onclick, i would like the height of the div about to be loaded (aka unhidden) to be saved into a variable... say var newHeight for ex.
IF newheight > minHeight, set document.getElementByID('links').height = 'newHeight' + px;
here's how i tried to code it:
<script language="JavaScript">
function setBorderHeight(divName)
{
var minHeight = document.getElementByID('links').offsetHeight;
var newHeight = document.getElementByID(divName).offsetHeight;
if (newHeight > minHeight)
{
document.getElementByID('links').style.height = 'newHeight' + px;
}
}
</script>
here's an example of a link:
<a class="mainLinks" href="learnMore" onclick="setBorderHeight('learnMore'); ball(this.previousSibling); return toggle('learnMore', 0);"
onmouseover="zxcMseOver(this,1);" onmouseout="zxcMseOver(this,-1);">Learn More</a>
what went wrong?
I have a webpage with an IFrame in it. The content for the IFrame could change per page and with it size. I don't want scrollbar's inside the IFrame but rather for the whole page. To accomplish this I must resize the height of the IFrame (width = fixed). But I can't seem to accomplish this. The links within the Iframe load the new content but I have to access the parent document to be able to resize the IFrame height. How I can resize the iframe from within javascript in the IFrame.

I have two monitors (one wide screen, one square) attached to my computer I can verify how it will look in different resolutions.While doing so I came across a nasty thing: in some resolutions the content div is very small and not using all of the full browser window (left after the header section).Is it possible to make a change to the CSS min-height and max-height while the page is being loaded?I've looked into lots of samples but all depend on a click or mouse over event and didn't want to work with onload in the body tag.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to integrate a forum (phpbb) inside my custom made website. The problem is that there is no way to dynamically adjust the iframe height..I thought javascript would be the best way to do that, the problem is that i know nothing about JS... Here is my idea,
-2 scripts, 1 in the parent page (the one with the iframe tag) and the second one in the main forum page
-The script inside the parent page, would dynamically set the "height" parameter inside the iframe tag based on a value passed by the second script.
-The second script, inside the forum page, would read the entire content of the (document.body.scrollHeight) current page and sends its result to the first script.I have found a script that was supposed to do that, but for some reasons it doesnt work very well. Here is the link where i explain de problem with it: http:[url]....
i want to increase the iframe height dynamically . Actually, parent window open light box using iframe. Now i click on iframe content area button then iframe will be automatically increase height (on scroll bar appears) .
View 4 Replies View Related[code]The image's height is 376px. So once the content goes after 376px, the blue bgcolor alternate takes over. But what i want is, once the content crosses the 376px height, the background image should dynamically stretch and not repeat.If this is not possible please do tell me how to increase the height of image in <img> using DOM methods.Again this should increase when the image's original height becomes greater than 376px
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've set the page up with an iframe because I figured then I would only have to update menu links on that main page and then there'd be less chance of missing a link somewhere along the way as new updates are added. I know this could probably be accomplished with .css, but I don't know how to do that either!
My problem is that the iframe won't adjust height to allow for the longer pages without adding scroll bar. My neighbor doesn't want it to look like its a separate box at all, so no borders and no scrolling can be used. I've tried the various solutions I've found online and either they do nothing or they stretch the page that's loading in the frame to ridiculous proportions AND still adds a scroll bar.
As I said, I haven't designed in several years and I never learned JavaScript at all. I suspect my problem is probably due to not understanding which bits of code I need to change to my iframe name. The IFrame SSI IV totally confuses me, though I do think that's the one that would ultimately work if I just knew where I was supposed to plug in my iframe name and target info.
My iframe name is, quite simply, "content" and the first page I want loaded (when someone first visits the site) is "whatisreiki.html" (my neighbor does Reiki on animals). The site is www.lovingtheanimals.com but I am working on this particular issue on www.lovingtheanimals.com/iframetest.html so that I don't totally screw up the site where visitors might be affected.
I need to be able to dynamically assign a variable to the height attribute of a div(flashOverlay) based on the height and t position of another div(pageContent). I am using the following script to capture the variable data. How do I apply this var to the div?

I have a 3 column CSS layout design. The page length is dynamic depending on how much content gets fed into each respective column. For this reason one column might be considerably longer than the other two, as a result the page length opens us white space in some columns.
Given the white space that appears if some content in columns is longer than in others, how could I measure the white space and depending on its height dynamically add in further content providing it fits (say additional side banners)?
I'm told this is possible in JS? I guess PHP is also a viable option?
I have the task of creating an asp page that generates a standard email newsletter. The HTML Image Width and Height tags need to be set to the actual image size (no they haven't been set to a standard size on the server) as they are read in via an while loop. I believe in ASP, you are out of luck for a function that does this, so Javascript may be the way forward.
My code is as follows for the image inside an anchor tag, as you can see i tried the min and max style properties for the image, but this does not set them exactly. e.g. width="120px" height="94px", which is what is required.
