Have Quotes Inside The OnClick, It Fails Completely With An Object Expected Error?
Aug 21, 2011
I have a JS HTML editor (not a WYSIWYG) that I downloaded and it works fine, except that any input with quotes causes it to break. I need the quotes for things like HTML and CSS classes etc.If I have quotes inside the onClick, it fails completely with an Object expected error. If the quotes are escaped with a , I get an "unterminated string constant" error, with this showing where a button should be

I have come across an issue that only happens with IE.I have a custom save function that is designed to handle different ajax submits but I will simplify it for debugging. The issue is that once I make a submit everthing is fine at first. Then once I try to submit a second time it craps out. I am checking to see if there is an onsubmit function and then executing it like so before continuing. After the inital submit it is no longer found. When I alert the typeof document on the form it returns object but when I add the onsubmit it says object expected or object is null or undefined.
Code:
function secureBarSubmit(formId)
{
alert(typeof document.getElementById(formId)); // object always
alert(typeof document.getElementById(formId).onsubmit); // func first time then it is broken

I'm receiving an "Object Expected" Error (Line:28, Char:7). I'm confused as to what is happening. I have virtually the same exact function in a different web page and I do not receive an error with this other page. Also, if I run this code in Fire Fox, I do not receive any error. Is there something that I'm missing? The error is pointing to "TextChanged();". Code:

I am still new to JavaScript and have a simple JavaScript & PHP journal program that allows the user to enter a title and description to be automatically added to a page that list their journal entries.
Everything works fine except for one part that I am just lost on, at the bottom of the page there is a dropdown menu which lists monthly archives, but when you select any month from the list you get a script error and nothing happens. You are supposed to go to a page that would list al the entries from that month.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I do not have the knowledge yet to fix this nor can I find the site that originally created this script.
Here is the Error I get:

Have been hammering away at this problem for a couple of hours and found that the 'type' attribute of the jQuery script files is set to 'application/javascript'. This works in Firefox but not IE. When changed to 'text/javascript' the IE error on $(document).ready event disappears. As yet no apparent side effects have occured. This is the only scenario where I have seen 'application/javascript' ever used so why this instead of 'text/javascript'?

I have a line which looks like this in PHP:
Code:
<input id="btnCancel$folder_id" type="button" value="Cancel" onclick="swfu.$folder_id.cancelQueue();" disabled="disabled" />
and of course when output looks like this:
Code:
<input id="btnCancel111" type="button" value="Cancel" onclick="swfu.111.cancelQueue();" disabled="disabled" />
It seems that the .111. throws an expected ";" error. swfu.cancelQueue(); by itself does not.
These objects are being defined in a function which takes in the folder ID as a variable, and then builds using this line:
Code:
swfu[folderId] = new SWFUpload(settings);

I am trying to use the cookies script at to make a "ReloadIfIE" script when someone clicks on a link. Basically I want to refresh the page if someone is using internet explorer due to a bug in IE. I want the text in a textarea to be saved and re-inserted into the textarea after refresh.I was told to use cookies to accomplish this.I get the error "Object expected" for the line that contains the bolded text below...Of note, I've also tried it by placing the element_id directly into the script.. but that didn't help either.
Code:
function createCookie(name,value,days) {
if (days) {
var date = new Date();[code]............

I am now able to list the folders and files in a directory. However, when I try to pass the values into another function to open the folder/file, I encounter an error saying object expected. I'm guessing that its the in the file paths that is causing the error. so my solution is to find the and replace it with a \ before passing it to the function to open the file. but the str.replace("\","\\") does not seem to work.

IE6 is giving me an "Object Expected" error. IE tells me the line number & I've marked that line in BOLD in the code below. It may not look like much--but that's the point. I've been having this error all night and I've been removing things trying to boil it down to bare bones to figure out what's going on.
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function test(){
document.write "Hello"
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onload=test()>
test

<script>
function view(text)
{
document.getElementById("textbox").innerHTML="<input type='text' value='"+text+"'>";
}
</script>
<a href="#" onclick="view('a ' " ')">click to view textbox</a>
<div id="textbox"></div>
this is an example of what im trying to do in a site. what this code does is when you click on hyperlink it shows a textbox in the div with text but single quote is causing problem and not letting it show the textbox even though i have escaped the single quote it will still not work double quote is working fine.
my guess is since i first send it to function and then function prints it so the escape i did is removed and it starts giving error and will not print textbox in the div. can anyone tell what should i add to escape and make it working i tested it in textarea its working there only it causes problem in textbox.

I know that using <a href="javascript:"> and <sometag onclick=""> is evil, but in this particular situation it is quite hard to avoid it due to external powers Anyway here is the issue itself : putting javascript strings inside HTML attributes :
Code:
<button onclick="DoSomething('string')">
Everything is fine until there are single or double quotes INSIDE the 'string' value. Having a double quote inside the string, even JS escaped leads to the onclick argument value being cut :
Code:
<button onclick="DoSomething('str"ing')">
If you replace the double quote by '"' then you don't get a double quote inside DoSomething (you could always replace " by " in JS).
Similar problem if you choose to enclose the onclick argument in single quotes and happen to have a single quote JS escaped inside the string.So, is there any other way of dealing with potential presence of single AND double quotes in the 'string' value, other than replacing them before by ' and " and then replacing them back inside DoSomething ?

I have looked at this code in and out and can't seem to find out what the problem is. The topic says it all. I have a link on a webpage with id name comment_stream on which when users click, is supposed to display an otherwise hidden comment box (id name comment_stream_div) and at the same time, hide the comment link, you know the type on facebook and other social networking sites. I am using javascript functions to accomplish this with an onclick event. The idea is to toggle between the display attributes (block and none) of the elements i wish to hide or display with the onclick event. I will show the javasscript below, as well as the the html for the elements involved and the css.
<script type='text/javascript'>
function show_comment_stream_div() {
document.getElementById('comment_stream_div').display = 'block';
document.getElementById('comment_stream').display = 'none';

But when I click the button, I get the yellow triangle of doom with Error on Page which tells me "Object Expected - line 122. So I go to line 122 and see the end center tag, and that doesn't help me one bit, of course... So now I turn to you all. What did I do wrong?

I'm still having problems with a Javascript 'Lookup' function. Basically, I have a select menu 'Customer' which triggers a 3 JS functions, to populate 2 extra select menus.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#customer').change(function() {
var option=$(this).val();
getCustContact(this);
getCostCentreContact(this);
$.get('getCostCentre.php',{select:option},function(data){
$('#result').html(data).hide().fadeIn(1000); .....
Using IE Developer Tools, during debugging, I get this error:
Expected ';' Error
This relates to either:
Code:
eval(ajax_CustContact[index].response);
or
Code:
eval(ajax_CostCentreContact[index].response);
(it's a bit random, as sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't)
I have tried changing the 'custid' to 'custname' to check whether it was an integer causing the problem, but had the same problem.

I have a html document, in which I include two standard libraries of
functions (supposed to help me with cross browser issues), and one
application-specific script file. All Javascript fcoz.
The very first attempt at invoking a function from this last script file
fails miserably in IE (6) but works as it should in Moz (1.4)
I have tried putting alert()s here and there, so I (think I) can tell
the exact spot where IE dies.
Structure is like this (all in HEAD):
<script type="text/javascript" src="../libPlatform.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../libDOM.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="tooltip.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function register() {
initAPI();
alert('after init');
regTooltip('a1');
alert('after dreg-1');
regTooltip('a2');
}
</script>
initAPI sits in libPlatform, and executes. I get to see the first alert.
And then, boom, IE script errors on page: Object expected (points to
'regTooltip')
Am I missing something here? If my code is wrong, why is Mozilla so
forgiving about it? How can I persuade IE to get the function?
Note: if I put regTooltip() right above register(), so locally in the
document, it works.

I am trying to setup a form with radio buttons. Each radio button has an OnClick event. When a radiobutton is clicked the current set of radio buttons will be replaced with a new set using document.createElement("input"). Each new radio button needs the same onclick event addedas in the initial set of radio buttons. I first tried:
element.setAttribute('onclick', MyFunction(value));
This, however, will somehow automatically trigger the onclick event! I searched on the internet and found this as the solution:
var new_onclick = function() { alert("this works!"); };
element.setAttribute('onclick', new_onclick);
This will give a "Object" is undefined error!

I have a list of input1's and inputs2's. The input ones are an accept button and the input2's are a deny button. However, I set up an alert to tell me the name of the input 1's but I am only told the name of the last input1 in my list.
I would like input1.name to show me... something like accept[3]. Where 3 is the uid of the user being accepted or denied. The name works when I look at the source code, but fails when I try to create the alert.
How can I achieve this result?
Code:
So what to do here, thats the question:
- You want to get the data of the button that has been pressed, if such function exists.
- Then use AJAX to send the form data to some file that probably doesnt exist yet.
- Give the PHP a responce, and echot he response to replace the buttons.

I wrote a simple javascript function but I cant get it to work upon a button click event because it keeps telling me that "object is expected" ? could you please identify where the error is? Heres my code
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<script type="text/Javascript" language="Javascript">
function output(){
alert("Hello world"); }
</script>
<head>
<body>
<input type="button" name="btnSubmit" value="submit" onclick="output();" />
<input type=button onclick="output();">
</body>
</html>
It keeps indicating me that there is an error when calling the method on button click.
