Javascript Anchor
Oct 19, 2005Does anyone have any javascript code that can navigate to an anchor in the
page load? I use location.href and it works in IE, but I can not get it to
work properly in FireFox.

Javascript In Anchor Tags
Sep 5, 2005If using an onclick event handler to execute javascript when an anchor
element is clicked on, what should the href attribute be? #?
javascript:void(0)? Something else?
Using Href:javascript And Anchor Links On Same Page
Jul 8, 2003I'm working on a project where we're using JavaScript to let users swap styles on a page. To accomplish this, I'm calling the script via href="javascript:swapcss()" on the switch styles button.
Some pages on the site have anchor links. On those pages, if someone swaps styles without hitting any of the anchor links, all is well. But if someone hits an anchor link and then hits the swap button (at this point the URL is pageid.html#anchor), the page just reloads to their anhor point without swapping styles.
Does anyone have a workaround handy? I've tried several alternatives I've found online (href="#" onClick="action"; href="javascript void(0)" ). Nothing works for this case yet. Code:
Difference In Calling Javascript In Href And Onclick Of Anchor Tag.
Jan 18, 2006I am looking for a generic javascript function to identify the form with in which a element exists, thus developer can avoid coding like document.forms[index].submit() - where they are sure, they want the form with in which this element exists is to be submitted. This way when forms are introduced at top level the code can remain unchanged, else every form introduce above in the DOM will result in increasing the index by one.
The code is given below. While doing so i am stuck with 2 problems
P1: In the code, you can see i am giving a explicit 'break' in the code. If i don't do so the code seems to be looping. Obviously i am missing some basic.
P2: I am able to pass 'this' for anchor element by name="xy"
<a href="#" name="xy"
in its onclick function by which, in the javascript function i move up the DOM.
While i am unable to do that on the anchor element given below since this function is now on the href attribute.
<a name="xy1" href="javascript:doFormSubmit(this);">Q test</a>
Hence the script fails. Code:
JQuery :: Reload Page With Anchor When Anchor Link Is Clicked?
May 26, 2011I need to get the page to reload with the anchor in the link when it is clicked in a dropdown menu. For example if I am on 'www.domain.com/about/#2' and I then click on 'www.domain.com/about/#3' the url changes but the page doesn't reload so I need the page to reload, but keep the new anchor (#3).I gave the links with anchors a class of 'reload' and tried this:
$('a.reload').click(function() {
window.location.reload();
});
Script-Added Anchor Preventing Jump Of Doc-Coded Anchor?
Jan 9, 2010I have a script that scans an HTML document for headers and special comment tags for the purpose of generating a left-floating/position-fixed DIV that contains the document's outline or "table of contents." Within the DIV are lists (UL element by default) whose items (LI elements) are jump-to links (A elements) to the points (headers, special points marked for inclusion in table of contents) in the document. The problem is this. I have typical HTML document with links that jump to points (usually headers) inside the document, as shown below:
Code:
<body>
<p>This is addressed <a href="#later-text">later</a> in this document
<h1><a id="later-text"></a>Header Text</h1>
<p>...
</body>
But my script, being a document outliner that finds headers in a document, inserts another anchor as a jump-to point just before the first occurrence of text in the header (inserted A element shown in red below). This somehow disables the document-coded jump anchor (shown in blue below). And it occurs in FF and IE, which suggests it is not a browser-specific issue. Why does it occur? Is there something in the HTML spec that states that two anchors to which a jump occurs are not allowed to be adjacent elements in the document?
Code:
<body>
<p>This is addressed <a href="#later-text">later</a> in this document
<h1><a id="later-text"></a><a id="jump-1"></a>Header Text</h1>
[code]....
To reproduce what I am seeing, search for the text "Why Is A Survey Done". The first occurrence is a within-document jump-to link, which should jump to a header below it. If the script execution to generate a document outline is disabled, the jump works. But if the script is executed and the document outline generated, the jump-to link does not work.
Using Anchor Jumps With 'instant' Anchor Based Navigation?
Sep 4, 2011Having a little bit of trouble with a site I'm currently working on I'm using some AJAX for the instant g-mail/facebook style navigation, you know the kind, with no refreshes, etc. Problem is, to allow for back/forward and bookmarks, I currently use a URL that looks like:[URL].. This is fine, not a problem... The issue comes into play when I want to open up the news.html page, from my home.html page, and have it open to news item #6 (for example).
I can't add a #, because one is already being used to reference the anchor for the content div. Has anyone run into a similar problem before? If so, how did you resolve it? Can some jQuery be used to find the location of the news item div in question, on load, and scroll to it like that?
Add An Anchor's Text On The Fly?
Aug 25, 2009I define an anchor as a global variable, like this:
var globvar = {
anchor: document.createElement("A")
}
Later, on the fly, I give it the attributes, like this:
globvar.anchor.setAttribute("href","javascript:keyb_change()");
globvar.anchor.setAttribute("onclick","javascript:blur()");
globvar.anchor.setAttribute("id","switch");
[code]....
1) In setting the attributes on the fly, how do I attach the anchor's text (the user clicks on) to the anchor?
2) Is there a way to include the attributes within the global variable's original definition, thereby sparing me from coding the attributes on the fly?

View 18 Replies View RelatedAnchor-like Method
Nov 13, 2007I have a div that scrolls horizontally that I use for navigation. As you go to each page, it'd be great if that scrolling nav div would take you to which page you were currently on, so you could navigate easier. If I use anchors for the links, it works (as in scrolls to the right spot), but obviously also shifts the page down, which I don't want.
Does anyone know a method to which I can get this div to scroll without shifting the page down?

How To Identify Name/id Of Named Anchor?
Jul 23, 2005I use named anchors to take users to specific parts of a long page. But I
want to add some processing and do some things with my nav bar when users go
to certain sections delineated by named anchors. I understand that the
anchors array creates an element for each anchor in the page when the page
is loaded, but how do I identify which anchor is currently being viewed?
Here's some pseudo code:
if (document.anchors.name == "section_B") {
then do this or that
}
But what do I test to determine the current anchor name?
What about using id's instead of names? Can the anchors array return
anchors created with id's as well as names? Would this be of any benefit?
Anchor And JS To Bottom Of The Page...
Jul 23, 2005I placed an anchor at the end of my long page inside a top <iframe>.
my entry field is in another iframe at the bottom. when i enter something and hit return, it adds a new line to the html file as well as <a name=END></a> tag (there is only one END tag at the end of the file)
I then request top frame to reload and goto END tag.
sometimes it works, sometimes it won't (IE). Is this normal ? Is it Frame related?

JQuery :: Can't Click The Anchor
Nov 22, 2010I have a problem with my jquery. This is my code:
jQuery(function(){
jQuery(".class1").toggle(function(){
jQuery(this).animate({ height: 250 }, 'slow');
jQuery(".class12",this).animate({ height: 250 }, 'slow');
[Code].....
So div.class1 wil animate from 100px to 250px if it's clicked. However, I couldnot click the link inside this div. Everytime i click it will be animated to 100px, and I can never get the link.
How can I keep the div.class1 open so that I can click on the link??

JQuery :: Getting The Img Alt Attribute From Within An Anchor Tag?
May 27, 2010I have tried for hours to work this out, but with no success.

JQuery :: Manipulating The Anchor Tag?
Sep 15, 2009I have multiple <tr> tags following the below pattern:
<tr>
<td class=c1Top>
<table>
<tbody>
[code]....
I need to update the href attribute so it appends the html value to the href attribute e.g.
href="http://mysite/Page1.html"
href="http://mysite/Page2.html"
href="http://mysite/Page3.html"
I tried the following, but no luck. It updates the html value of all anchor tags with the value contained in the 1st tr $('td.c1Top table tbody tr td.ms-vb a').attr('href', $('td.c1Link table tbody tr td.ms-vb a').html());

1) In setting the attributes on the fly, how do I attach the anchor's text (the user clicks on) to the anchor?
2) Is there a way to include the attributes within the global variable's original definition, thereby sparing me from coding the attributes on the fly?

Jump To Anchor Tag Onload?
Aug 11, 2009I currently have a script to jump to an anchor tag when the page loads:
<script type="text/javascript">
function goToAnchor() {
location.href = "myPage.html#myAnchor";
}
</script>
Now, I would like to take it a step further and would like to link from page A to page B that usually takes a while to load and once the page loads, run a script to jump to the specified anchor tag on the page after everything has loaded. I know I have to add some parameters at the end of the url link on page A, but that's where I get stuck.

I did find "one" that I liked but it links to a lame page. I would rather have no link rather than the one provided. The widget I like is a simple javascript "include file" similar to this one:

Way To Have Two Onclick Events Within One Anchor Tag?
Jul 20, 2011I'm filling in for a coworker on a radio stations website.
The station currently streams live online. I want to add an event tracking so I can track how many people are streaming. I'm really new to js, but I think I figured it out (keyword is "think"). However, there was already an onclick event within the anchor tag. Can I have two in the same tag? Is there a better way to do this?
Using An Anchor In OnClick Alert?
Sep 25, 2011To order a customized product from my site, the user has to upload an image and then submit text (separate steps but part of the same php form) before adding to their cart. Currently, the user must scroll back down from the top of the page to the next part of the form after each step which is more confusing than I would like.
The first step of the form uses a straight forward <form> and I was able to add an action="#anchor" to jump down to where I set the first anchor.
The second step is regrettably not so straight forward and I'm having trouble adding an anchor. After entering text, the user clicks a submit button which triggers an alert letting them know the text was submitted successfully. When the user clicks the okay button on the popup alert, I would like the page to jump down to the 'add to cart' portion.
This is the button:
echo '<tr>
<td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center">
<input id="delete_button" class="button" type="submit" value="Attach Text" onclick="return( confirm( this.form ) );" />
[Code]....
How can I prevent the page from returning to the top after the user submits text?
