Javascript Parsing HTML From XML
Jul 20, 2006
I have an XML file that among other things has the following node.
As you can see it contains HTML tags.
<description lang="en">
<![CDATA[
<div class="descrBoxRight" style=" top:250; left:200">
ENGLISH <b>ENGLISH</bENGLISH ENGLISH
</div>
]]>
</description>
With javascript, in Mozilla, I easily retrieve the content of the
XML "description" tag using the following line of code
var myStuff = myDescrNode.textContent;
However, in IE (6.0)
var myHTML = myDescrNode.textContent;
and
var myHTML = myDescrNode.innerText;
do not work, resulting in myHTML being undefined.
Alternative solutions? Should I remove the CDATA tag
and use a completely different method?

For a project I am working on, I need to retrieve links from html
documents. The easy part is to obtain 'plain' links like <A
HREF="http://site/path/document">, but when those links are
javascript'ized, the only robust solution needs to load the javascript
and dom document representation in the same way that browsers do. For
example, links in the form:
<A HREF="javascript:function_declared_before("arguments"));>
First I though that using spidermonkey (the mozilla javascript
interpreter) should be enough, but in that case, I dont have the
document structure elements (like document, window, document.history,
document.form.element, etc), so I tried parsing the document using a
library to build a tree representation of it, but that leads me to the
same problem again, that is, I have to represent all tree nodes as
javascript entities.
Anybody here have worked on a similar problem? What tools do you
think I should take a look?

I'm writing a program on Zimki, which I think uses SpiderMonkey as a server side Javascript engine.
My idea is to have an html file that someone else created, and look inside for cells in a table that have special known names, like name, description, etc. Then I want to figure out the <tr<tr/pair that encloses all of those special tags, and use that as a template to generate a bigger table from another datasource.
So, I'm wondering how I actually open a file and then parse it as html so I can poke around the DOM, all from the server side without involving a browser client.

I have an external page with some rudimentary html in the source code missing many tags.. a bit like the below. On a page hosted elsewhere I need to take the html from this external page and add and remove certain parts of it and add some styling such as line breaks before ^FIELD01. I've looked at jquery and AJAX but cant find anything to suit my needs. I think what I am struggling with most is having this page in a variable to then be able to edit it.
Code:
^BEGIN SEARCH FORM
<form name="dancesearch" action="JJList.html?PHPSESSID=604918b69ab9936e638b5d48cdc142a3&xt=673">
^FIELD01: Dance Name<input name="ts" type="text" size="20" maxlength="25" />
[Code].....

DOM Parsing XML file (am new to using DOM and parsing files) and I am practicing with example files I found online (W3C). I am trying to use DOM to parse and XML file and then display the info retrieved from the XML file in HTML using Javascript. The files are working well and validate, but nothing is displayed when I open the file up in a browser only the style sheet background color I am using. There are 3 JS functions, one loads the XML, the second gets the info and the third displays it. Here is the code, minus the Style sheet I have been trying to figure this out.
HTML Code
Code:
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"[URL]">
<head>
<title>Bookstore</title> .....

I have a web page that I created that should basically do the following:
Parse an xml feed with javascript and display the contents to the page.
The problem is as follows:
I can parse the feed and display it using javascript but it only works for internet explorer. For some reason when I try doing it in firefox, it doesnt do anything and nothing displays.
I think it might have to do with the fact that it is loaded from url.
Any comments?

Since XMLHTTP Request does not support loading of XML from other
servers, I decided to use a trick:
load XML into hidden iframe and then get that XML with JavaScript to
parse.
But, is this a good idea? I am stuck. How do I get XML loaded in the
iframe and pass it on to JS function for parsing?

I am trying to write a script which will allow me to read the contents of an
HTTP web page into memory, parse the data, and output a calculated value.
The HTTP page is on a web enable appliance - I am reading some data out of a
table for further calculation. I can't modify the web appliance, only read
the text data.
I've written a script on my Windoze PC that successful uses a MSXML2 ActiveX
object to read the contents of a web page into memory using the
xmlhttp.responseText object. The problem is that the ActiveX object is not
available on a lightweight Linux based http server.
I need to write a script that will work with ASP/Javascript on a lightweight
Linux based http server.

I'm working on some code and am running into brick walls. I'm trying
to write out Javascript with Javascript and I've read the clj Meta FAQ
and didn't see the answer, read many similar posts (with no luck
though), and searched through the IRT.ORG Faqs
(www.irt.org/script/script.htm).
The Javascript is designed to open an popup window and then inside that
window call another script which will resize that window. There may be
another way around this but the reason I tried this approach initially
was that I wanted to call the onload handler in the popup window to
resize the image only after the image had completely loaded. I've had
some code in the primary Javascript file (showimage.js) before that
works if the image has been cached but on the first load, it doesn't
resize properly which tells me it is probably because it is trying to
resize the window based on the image size but it isn't completely known
at that point. So I removed that code and tried placing the resizing
code in the second Javascript file (resizewindow.js). BTW I've tried
other code to open a popup image and automatically size it ie Q1443 at
irt.org but that doesn't do exactly what we need.
Even if there is another way to do this with one file, I still want to
figure out why this isn't working in case I run into it in the future.
I thought what I would need to do to use document.writeln to write
Javascript would be to escape any special characters and to break
apart the script tag ie
document.writeln('</SCRIPT>');
would become
document.writeln('</SCR' + 'IPT>');
I have a HTML page and 2 Javascript files. All files are in the same
directory and have permissions set correctly.
Here are the 3 files (keep in mind wordwrap has jacked up the
formatting):
index.html
----------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1"
SRC="showimage.js">
</SCRIPT>
</head>
<body>
Click the house<BR>
<A ONCLICK="newWindow1('house1.jpg','Nice House')"><IMG
SRC="house1thumb.jpg"></A>
</body>
</html>
showimage.js
------------
function newWindow1(pic,sitename)
{
picWindow=window.open('','','width=25,height=25,sc rollbars=1,resizable=1');
picWindow.document.writeln('<html> <head>');
picWindow.document.writeln('<SCR' + 'IPT type="text/javascript"
LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="resizewindow.js"></SCR' + 'IPT>');
picWindow.document.writeln('</head>');
picWindow.document.writeln('<body onload="resizewindow();">');
picWindow.document.writeln('<img src=' + pic + '>');
picWindow.document.writeln('</body> </html>');
picWindow.document.close();
}
resizewindow.js
---------------
function resizewindow()
{
// Do resizing here.
// Right now this isn't being executed
alert("resizing window");
}
Can anyone provide some pointers as to why this javascript is failing?
I'm using IE6 on Win2k and when I click on the image to open the popup
window, it does open the window but it is white with no content and the
system immediately goes from about 4% CPU usage to 100% and
consistently stays there until I kill that window with the task
manager.

On the time sheet page i have created a years worth of entries in the
database for a user so that they may create entries ahead of time(for
holidays etc.).
My problem is that when i load the page, i display the current month
for that user and it displays:
Date Month Day TimeInMorning TimeIn Evening etc..
What i would like is that a user may update any field and click on a
save button which will update the field(s) that they have changed. I
ahve attempted in javascript to do this but i am failing.

I'm learning/experimenting with some simple JS/html markup, running
an apache daemon and mozilla firefox browser in RH 9.
Let's say I run the following markup with one or more of lines 6-10
commented out:
1 <html>
2 <head>
3 <script type="text/javascript">
4 function showinfo()
5 {
6 width = window.screen.availWidth;
7 document.write("<br>screen width=
");
8 document.write(width);
9 document.write("<br>Date: ");
10 document.write(Date());
11 }
12 </script>
13 </head>
14 <body onload="showinfo()">
15 <p>
My question: is there a simple explanation to account for the 'unexpected'
behaviours below (Runs 1, 3, 5)?
Run 1: nothing in 6-10 commented out; output (expected more):
screen width=
Run 2: line 7 commented out; output (as expected):
1024
Date: Wed Apr 14 2004 20:55:58 GMT-0400 (EDT)
Run 3: lines 7, 9, 10 commented out; output (as expected, but unfinished loading):
1024
[ongoing hourglass indicating loading in progress]
Run 4: lines 7, 10 commented out; output (as expected):
1024
Run 5: lines 7-9 commented out; output (as expected, but unfished loading):
Date: Wed Apr 14 2004 22:46:49 GMT-0400 (EDT)

Here's my situation:
1. I have a web browser component that does not support Javascript
(well it does, but we've disabled it)
2. I have to display some HTML in it, where the user has a link titled
"Hide|Show Options" that can hide/show a particular section of the
HTML.
I have not found a way to achieve it without using Javascript or any
other scripting language.
Is it possible to do this using pure plain HTML?
