Edit An External CSS - Height And Size Attributes Of Elements On The Page
Nov 12, 2011
I'm working on my personal website [URL] and I'm trying to use Javascript to edit some of the height and size attributes of elements on the page, based on the user's window size. I've got the code that gets the window size working, and calculates what I want to set as the "boxSize" but the part that goes into the external CSS to change the values is not working. "boxSize" is a variable that holds just a number. I'm not sure if it's really stored as a number or a string, but I don't think that's supposed to affect anything.
I'm just putting in the relevant part of the code right where it's failing. I figured out (using alert() statements) that the script is definitely working right up until before the two lines given, and failing to get through them.
I use an asp page to display pages, where the dynamic content is in an iframe. To calculate the height of the iframe I use the calcheight function. However when trying to do this with external pages, I get an access denied error, and the iframe won't display correctly. Is there a way to solve this or another way to calculate the height for the iframe. The relevant code displayed below...
I'm wrestling with this bit of code that almost works but does not. I'm only guess is that I need to find a way to edit the actual CSS document from the outside... which I'm assuming isn't possible. Is it? I've got a basic CSS Rollover effect going on. The kind that changes the background-position on hover. However I've defined the actual background image with PHP (a custom field in Wordpress) as a style="..." in the <a> tag. When I define the background-image in the CSS it works! When I define the background-image as a style="..." it does not work. Can I use javascript or something to edit the actual CSS document?
If an <IMG> specifies a WIDTH but not a HEIGHT, then height is internally determined so as to maintain the image's aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is also preserved if HEIGHT but not WIDTH is specified.
What is the value of an unspecified HEIGHT or WIDTH attribute. How do I dynamically set the attribute to unspecified, after having previously used the <IMG> with explicit HEIGHT and WIDTH attributes?
I create tablerows and cells dynimaic dependent on a ajax-request. Now i want to add droppable attribut to it with a plugin. I can manek the plugin work if i use static HTML, but my dynimic created elements seems to not be able to edit.All elements get class="drop" and even the easy code like $(".drop").hide(); does not effect my dynamic elements.[code]
I'm attempting to make a web page that adapts to the size of your browser size when it maximized. Because I'm only 15 I'm not such a great programmer or coder. I've done my best with the resources I have though (Fluent in Lua and a natural ability to pick languages syntax up quickly)
Here is what I have so far, it doesn't work and it is starting to puzzle me. As it seems correct as I look at it. I'm sorry if this question show my ignorance. I try my best to hide it.
Some of it is Copy pasted from sources on Google. But only for educational purposes, I learn off reading, examining and testing out snippets.
I'm basically trying to get the max size of the window and resize the div accordingly.
I'm working on an app, which createsvisualizations based on SVG. I was using jQuery SVG by Keith Wood at first [URL], but at some point I've noticed that it's very inconvenient for some stuff and wrote my own functions to handle everything. One of the quirks when creating svg trees dynamically is that you have to create all elements and set attributes using the SVG namespace ("[URL]"), otherwise they aren't rendered correctly by browsers.
Here's an example of how you create a text element... var svgns = "[URL]"; var newText = document.createElementNS(svgns,'text'); newText.setAttributeNS(null,"x","0"); newText.setAttributeNS(null,"y","0"); $(newText).text("some text"); $(svgGroup).append(newText);
There doesn't seem to be a way to do that more effectively using jQuery. For instance, you can't use attr to set multiple attributes, since it won't use setAttributeNS.
I have a page with div layer where i insert text with innerHTML attribute into it. Depending on the ammount of text i have the HEIGHT of the layer is changing.if i leave the css part of it with no HEIGHT atribute at all, browser will not automaticaly calculate it and returns empty string on request layerName.style.height.if i assign some value to it("..height: 200px;..") it will not change it after uploading the text. It will change the size but on request layerName.style.height i'll get same 200px.
As the title suggests, I want to grab the height of the center column and force my left and right columns to be the same height. The bit of code below is from MyWebTronics, and it's great (awesome job, Jason!)... but it is designed to grab the tallest column (regardless which one it is) and then set all the rest to the that same size.
Code JavaScript: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> fixHeight=function(){ var divs,contDivs,maxHeight,divHeight,d; maxHeight=0; contDivs=[]; divs=document.getElementsByTagName('div'); // get all <div> elements in the document for(var i=0;i<divs.length;i++){ // for all divs... if(/"fixheight"/.test(divs[i].className)){ // find those with the class attribute 'fixheight'... d=divs[i]; contDivs[contDivs.length]=d; // determine their height, defined as either offsetHeight or pixelHeight if(d.offsetHeight){ divHeight=d.offsetHeight; } else if(d.style.pixelHeight){ divHeight=d.style.pixelHeight; } // Keep track of the largest div height maxHeight=Math.max(maxHeight,divHeight); }} // assign all divs the height of the tallest div for(var i=0;i<contDivs.length;i++){ contDivs[i].style.height=maxHeight + "px"; }} // Run fixheight on page load window.onload=function(){ if(document.getElementsByTagName){ fixHeight(); } }// ]]> </script>
In my case, I always want the center column to define the height for the left & right columns. SO... this means (1) I need to wrap my center column with <div class="fixheight"></div>. (2) I need to modify the portion below so that it will write my side columns (wrapped with <div class="sideheight"></div>) to the same height.
Code JavaScript: // assign all divs the height of the tallest div for(var i=0;i<contDivs.length;i++){ contDivs[i].style.height=maxHeight + "px"; } Javascript is not my specialty at all, and I'm hoping to rework this to write the sideheight style instead of fixheight.
I am trying to get an iframe to have dynamic height - I want it to resize to fit the contents of the page.There is a four or five step process within the iframe. So for example, page 1 is rather short, and it'll have a link that sends you to page 2, which might be rather long.I have no control over the pages I am using in the iframe and they are on another domain.I have googled and and searched the forum and I've yet to find anything that works. A lot of them say they're not cross-browser compatible, but I haven't gotten anything to work how I'd like in any browser.I'd like to do it without jQuery.
I need a script for the head of my HTMl file that examines the size of the browser window. If the browser is a certain size, then the HTML will load a external javascript.
I am developing a web application in which I need to integrate a javascript/html editor on some of the web pages and then provide 'Edit' buttons on those web pages so that users can edit the content on that partciular html/jsp page (like editing in wiki pages) and then, when they add some content and click on submit button, the new content should appear on the web page with all the formatting (i.e. bold, italics, color and so on) which was applied by user when he was entering the text.
Now, I need help for the below issues:
1. Suggest me a good javascript/html editor (freely downloadable) which I can use to integrate with my web pages.
2. Once the user has entered some content using the above javascript editor, how to make that content reach the server and update the corresponding web page.
I have never used this object before and don't know a whole lot about javascript or DOM. I am trying to create a select menu so that when you click an option it turns the display attribute of the coorosponding div to just "" from the initial "none". This works fine just by grabbing the right ID.
I also want to hide all other divs, even if they were previsously selected by mistake, so I thought I could use the get elements by tage name object to grab all the divs and then edit their display to "none". Maybe this is completely the wrong way to go about what I want to do, because eventually there will have to be forms nested within these divs.
I have a div that is absolutely positioned and stretch on all sides using top: 10px; left: 10px; bottom: 10px; right: 10px; When I try to get the height of the div, using $('#id').height(); I get 0 (zero). Is there a problem calculating the height of elements like this one, or am I missing something?
I just started using jquery a few days ago and am already addicted.Now I am trying to figure out one thing which I can't seem to get answered by Google:I am building a dynamic website where at one place there will be an unclear number of div-elements. So there can be none, just one or several.The plan is to show them by a click on a button via slideDown(). So I wrapped them with another div.wrapper via wrapAll(). This works nicely for any number.Now the thing is: if my .wrapper has no specified height, the slideDown jumps - which doesn't look very nice.So I gave it a height:$('.wrapper').css({'height': $('div').outerHeight()});Presto, the animation works smoothly. But this works only if there's just one div.
The cover group contains left & right bar images that repeat vertically as the page expands. The top is just a simple blue background (also content bg color)
Obviously content is the content of the page and both covergroup and content are within the subbody.
Is for the <subbody> tag to be the size of <content> + 5px on top (size of the <covertop>), and the left and right cover divs to expand to the size of subbody.
I guess since I'm using a footer (with image and text) letting the page expand as it wants is out, and I need javascript to make it work.
I've been looking for a way to edit table data in a mysql db without having to refresh the page. I found DHTMLX GRID [URL] which is amazing, I just can't afford it right now. I have have lazy users who don't want to have to click submit to make a change.
i just came from the CSS board, where i asked if it was possible to edit a pages css from the main page through a IFrame. I have posted all code there, take a look: [URL] Just wondering if its possible, and if it is possible, how?
I'm trying to figure out how to make something happen only if there are more than one link inside a div.[code]For now I'm trying to make the little div with the class "cover caption" NOT move when there is only one link in the div.THe reason for this is that I want the whole div to be clickable if there is only one link inside.
I have Google Mail login page, saved locally to C: disk. I want to edit its source so, that when entered username and password and clicked on "Login" button it did absolutelly nothing, but the form did not reset. I tried deleting from the source "form action = https"//....", "method = post", "onsubmit = ...".
So, when the form is submitted, nothing happens(as I want it to be), but the field values are reset(what I want to avoid). I also tried inserting to source code "form onsubmit = return false", but the username and password values are still reset.
I am implementing Ajax for a new website and I've run into a hurdle.
It seems like Javascript does not 'see' any div elements that are loaded from external file with Ajax.
Is this a common issue, and is there a solution? Or am I overlooking something obvious?
What I'm doing is loading a simple external page via Ajax. The pages loads just fine, and it contains div's with unique id's. If I execute a Javascript function, it seems to not recognize these newly-rendered div's from the Ajax external file. Is this the case? Can Javascript be re-invoked on command, so it can see the new div's?
