Loading File From Disk - Select A File From A List And Load It Into A Webpage
Jan 1, 2011
I am looking for a way to select a file from a list and load it into a webpage. The page and the files are stored on a sd-card for off-line usage, I know that listing files remote dynamicly needs a scripting engine but since the sd-card is on the client side that is not possible, but I can make a list of those files when creating them.
It is intended for a datalogger on a tractor-puller, I create csv files with a bash script on the logger and for off-line viewing I use a javascript charting engine which loads the csv file, the files have the creation date as filename and I can make (and maintain) a list of files when creating them. The plan is that the we can select another data set (run) from within the browser and show that one. I have setup an example at [URL]
What is the correct way to incorporate a .js file into an HTML file *IF* the .js file on a hard disk?
What I have tried is listed below but it does not work... When trying to access a function module in one of the .js files, I get an error that the function module is not defined (which would lead me to believe that it is not being imported with the .js "src" instruction.
I would like to create a html E-test form run on PC and the data will save into a file on disk. I search online for this function code but found that most the script only save the cookie, is it possible for javascript save form data to file? Here is the ideal for my survay form,
1. user click "start" button for the e-test,
2. user need to finish the e-test with in 20 minutes, after 20 minutes the form will auto submit and the data will save into file,
3. me will go to the file folder open it and print out the qestion and anwser.
4. The file will be detele after i print out and the next user can do the e-test again.
I got the time counter and the auto submit script. but i just have no ideal how to save the data into file.
Well that works, but i want to add a select option <option>bar1</option> option>bar2</option>
And depending what option is selected, i want to load that get instead. So if bar2 is selected, the load should (asyncronosly) load test.php?foo=bar2 instead.
I'm writing a script and I've encountered a problem.. I have a txt file with many words, each word in a different line. For example: the file words.txt contains:
word1 word2 word3 word4 word5
I need to load the content of the file into a variable in my script. I prefer that all the words will be in the same variable with line breaks, but if you'll figure out a way to put it in an array, it's ok too. I really don't know how to do it, and I tried to google but didn't understand.. By the way, I don't want to change the txt file to js file, I need it to remain txt..
I wanna send a file thru the JQuery.load, I want it to work exactly like the regular post without the JQuery. So I can check the $_FILES['file']['error'] in PHP and all its features like I do without using JQuery.
$("#load").load('gerenciar_itens.php',{/* This is where I wanna pass the file. */}, function(data){ alert(data); });
I 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.

what to do to retain values of a webpage even after saving the webpage on the local disk? i have developed my webpages in dreamweaver cs4 also my webpages are using opera 10.10 as default browser and one more thing i cant migrate it to any other browser.
My company has a website where we have some case studies in pdf format . People can download or view them .

Server side scripting languages is not enabled at the moment but javascript is.....
I have a <input type = file> button for uploading a file in my php page. As soon as i select a file from the button, i need the file data to be displayed so that i check whether the file selected has the correct data. How can i do this.
im working on a web application that generates dynamic data. My question is: i want users to be able to save the generated data, but not the whole web page, just a table in the web page that holds this data. I searched and found out that showing a "save as" dialog box is possible with javascript, with a method like: onclick="javascript: document.execCommand('SaveAs',Ƈ',null);. However, i coulnd't find out how to change the document object (or is it possible?) or a trick to print just the table of dynamic data.
I tried to cover the table with <div id="myData"></div> and use onclick="javascript: myData.execCommand('SaveAs',Ƈ',null); but as you might guess, it didn't work and gave this error message: "object doent support this property or method". Indeed i dont have any idea what div tag can and can't do, so it was just a meaningless try. By the way, i want to add that i can't use iframes just because of program design issues. Anyway, do you have any suggestions?
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.
i am trying to have the content of a txt file loaded in a page (which works), but this file changes on a regular basis and I need just the text to refreash, not the whole page, this is what I have... As mentioned, it correctly displayes the content of the .txt file, but from the code I have, I need it to refresh
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head>
it is possible to redirect content that would normally appear on a webpage into file instead. I have webpages that I want to be able to switch into LOG mode where the entire content is instead written to a file.
I have an excel doc. which is updated by many people through the day. I would like this to be converted to a web page every hour, and then saved to a directory where it can be pulled onto a website.
I work for a small college and we were recently given permission to use a particular GPA calculator on their website. They sent us a javascript file, that I now have. I am trying to incorporate this into our website, but I don't really know much about javascript and I am having trouble making it work.
You can view the GPA calculator here to help clarify what I mean... If someone could just help point me in the right direction or if anyone know a site with tips that would be helpful to me..
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?
I'm try to set up a webpge that will play a live flash video on the left-hand side(got that part working) and display one slide of a presentation(jpg) to the right of the video. I would like to be able to control when the slide image changes by having some js check a text file on my server. The text file could contain something as simple as "Slide1.jpg". I will manipulate the text file with some code I've already written. Is there some simple js code I can put in my page that will cause it to check the text file every 5 seconds, and if the content of the file has changed, to refresh the image on the page with the new image? I'm try to get away from the "clicking" sound that is caused by doing a simple refresh of an Iframe.
What's the simplest way to fetch a js file from the current website, then cache it?
I'm using dojo, which has a large js file when using the built version. As a mercy for dialup users, I want to serve up a tiny 'loader' html page (containing an animated 'loading...' gif) which, when loaded:
1. retrieves the big js file, and plants it in the cache 2. when the js file is retrieved, then sets document.location to the url of the real website page which uses this js file, and thus redirects to that page.
