<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.3.2.min"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js"></script>

This works fine when served from my server via http. However, I want to load this entire site (including all linked js/css files) from a local filesystem for offline usage. When I move the project to a local filesystem, the browser throws a bunch of errors from the secondary scripts (like jquery-ui) which indicate that the main jQuery lib isn't loading (ie.ReferenceError: Can't find variable: $). This behavior is consistent across IE7/FF3/Safari4Mac.
Here is what I'm trying to do but the problem is "source.html" is not on a server somewhere. I am running everything locally. $('#container').load(source.html #sourceContent) Is there a way to do this exact thing but with a local file?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a .js file, we want to make it to load a html file right next to it, both files are on client system. I couldn't find any such examples and some posts talked about JavaScript security issues, I wonder if it is related to what I want.
Someone said .js file is not really JaveScript file, though Microsoft named it 'JavaScript'.
note that I am trying to "call" .html file from the .js file, not embed html code in .js.
I have a javascript (HTML internal), which fetches and executes a file in another web address... but I do not want it to do that, i want this script to execute is function directly from my local disk (file location).
Here is the script;
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div style="WIDTH: 984px; HEIGHT: 443px" >

I'm considering writing a program in Javascript with Mozilla XULRunner.
(This would be a fully privileged XUL program, not a web page, so it
wouldn't be sandboxed.) This program requires full access to the
filesystem, which it looks like Mozilla's File class can provide.
However, my program needs to not only read these files; it also has to
read their metadata, such as their various timestamps and security
information. (I realize this stuff is platform-specific.) Does anybody
know if I can do that?
I need poll system only in javascript and xml/text file.
example: What is your age ?
option: 10
option: 20
option: 30
option: 40
Button Vote and Result show result in same div in Bar
I have the following code below, and its giving me an error saying: "The system cannot find the file specified".
<html>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function start_ccm(){
var wsh = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell');
wsh.exec("C:Program FilesWorkDynamics TechnologiesccmApplicationsccmMercury.exe")
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Button1" onclick="start_ccm()" type="button" value="START" />
</body>
</html>
There is nothing wrong with the location, but my best guess are the spaces in the file path.
if its possible to read xml files locally from an html page using javascript without using any local server?

I have web page where user can upload file. He can select which file to upload with standard HTML input of type file. I want to add this feature: when user select some file (e.g. picture, pdf etc.) in file select dialog, I want to add link to selected local file. When user click on it browser(maybe associated application) should open local file so user can review what he selected. I was experimenting with urls with "file" protocol but it works only with html file located on local computer not for one on web server. I found that this is because of security restriction in browsers.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have Win 7, IE9. I have a HTML file on my hard drive, with Javascript within. When I load the page, it keeps popping up Do u want to allow this content, I have to click to allow. I want to stop this, and after doing some searching I found the setting in Internet Options, Advanced - "Allow active content to run in files on my computer".
Perfect.
Doesnt work. When i check this box, the page loads without the warning, but then the Javascript just doesnt work.
Getting quite annoying, because this file is my home page.
Can anyone tell me how to use XMLHTTPRequest or MS ActivcXObject open a

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 busy making a project which needs to be ran locally. It has to work on Firefox only.
I've ran into the problem I can't load local XML files from another directory then the html file is located.
When I try loading XML trough an ajax request with the url "content.xml" everything works fine. As soon as I want the XML to be loaded from another folder, e.g. "../../../content.xml" it doesnt enter my success function.
$.ajax({
cache: "false",
type: "GET",
url: "../../../content.xml?r=" + Math.random(),

I am working on a project involving the Google Maps api. I have an application that spits out a text file with lat/lng coordinates plus some other info. I'm trying to figure out how to get the data from the local text file into a javascript array that can then be used by the Google Map api to create the map.
Any suggestions on how to go about doing this? I'm fairly certain that there is not a way to do it just with Javascript, but I thought I would ask. If not, any suggestions on how to do it, perhaps with xmlhttprequest and a PHP script? I don't need the text file to actually be saved on the web server, but if that's the only option then I can go that route.
How do you open a local html file in the parent window (asp.net)?
