Onclick Event Function Becomes Undefined
Jan 22, 2010
The following coding works in Konqueror 3.5.10 on Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS but not on Firefox 3.0.10 Linux/3.5.7 XP, Opera 10.10 Linux or IE8 XP.I can't see why but it may be to do with the recursion (showtable calls onclick calls addit which calls showtable).Somehow it is not seeing the addit routine the second time round.It is meant just to add a line. Eventually it needs to be a complex table but this is for illustration. There are other ways to solve this but this would be the simplest - if it worked!What happens is that one line is added OK but then it chokes. This is what makes me think it is the recursion but I can't see otherwise how to make it write the updated text. I realise I should have a document.close() in it as well and I have tried adding <![CDATA[ ... ]]> as well.Other than in Konqueror, it gives an error message saying object not found (in IE8) or more explicitly:[code]

I am working a project for school in which I am trying to make a simple math game. When the user clicks the start button it will bring display a question and ask for an answer. What I want to to is when the user clicks the start button it will swap the button for to other buttons to move to the next question and one to restart the game. Which works fine, the problem is after the buttons are swapped.
How would I access a sub function from a buttons onclick event? I currently have onclick="return MathGame.resetForm();" but that throws an exception and I can't see where. What is the best way to go about this. Also this is my first attempt at using javascript in this manner so I'm probably going about it the wrong way.[code]...

I have a small portal website with some ads around. I'm in the process of creating an ads manager script with php and mysql and would like to know when an ad was clicked. I'm confused on how to do this but, the only way I can think of is by adding an onclick even to every ad img:
HTML Code:
<a onclick="callfunction('ad_id');" href="ad url"><img src="path"></a>
Now, how would I call a php function with onclick? I guess that can be done with ajax but, don't know much on how to use it?

Does anyone know how to create a link (<a> . . . </a>) with some piece
of javascript code that has the onClick event set for some function that I also wrote (not a build-in function).
I can find all sorts of samples in these disc.groups but none of them
seems to work for me.
I am focussed on Firefox, but some code that also works for IE, would
be appreciated.
BTW I know how to create elements in the html document, that is not the
problem. The problem is that I seem not te be able to set the onClick event for some created element. I tried for both a link and also for a text-element.
I can set the onClick for some built-in function like alert('Nice Day').
There are loads of examples to be found for that, and they indeed work.

I need to run a PHP function call through an onClick which through my research I have found that I need to use AJAX. Let me explain better what I am trying to do. I am currently using Simplepie PHP to pull various RSS feeds, I have an HTML DIV tag that loads the titles of the feeds and I want to get to the point where each title is clickable (im assuming this is through onClick) to run a simplepie PHP function to pull the content into a seperate DIV (on the same page).

Is it possible to set an html element's (created through HTML DOM's createElement() method) 'onclick' attribute's value to a Javascript function which requires a parameter, passing a variable to it at the same time?
I have the following Javascript code:
var parentDiv = document.getElementById("subscribers");
var stubSpan = document.createElement("span");
stubSpan.id = "opentok_subscriber_" + stream.streamId;
stubSpan.onclick = showStreamInFullScreenMode(stream);
parentDiv.appendChild(stubSpan);
'stream' in the bolded line is a parameter variable of the function that the above code is in, and I'm trying to pass it to another function using an onclick event.

What I need is simple. Here I created 3 links and after that I want to add dinamically an onclick event to alert the number of the link. The problem is I can't find the way to pass the variable.Obviouslly this is not the actual function, but I need to solve this problem to apply the solution into a more complex script.

I have a few buttons on a page I'm developing and I want the onclick event to call a javascript function in an external file and execute it. I would like to be able to pass a parameter to that function and then either have the function take the user to a new URL or make changes to the webpage content.
Initially (just to test) I had inline javascript that caused an alert to popup. That worked fine. Next I took the inline code and put it in a function in an external javascript file that was referenced in the HTML:

I have come across a problem that seems common with firefox and the use of event. I have a simple javascript function which trys to determine the element that an event was acted upon:
Code:
This is called on click of a input:
Code:
This seems to work correctly for every browser except firefox. A quick search online and all the fixes seem to include:
Code:
But when I debug this function, neither e or event are defined, am i overlooking something really obvious?

I want to make it so that when I click on something, it changes what document.onclick does.
This is a simplified version of what I'm trying to do:
Code:
<div id="clickme" onclick="document.onclick = function(){ alert ('This should not be alerted on the first click'); }">Click here</div>
However, as you'll notice, the alert box shows up on the first click as well. The only way I have been able to get around this behaviour is to have the first onclick execute a timer that will then set the document.onclick after 1ms, however this seems very messy to me.

function doUnload()
{
if (window.event.clientX < 0 && window.event.clientY < 0)
{
alert("Window is closing...");
} }
I get window.event undefined by using
var evt =window.event? event : e I get e undefined
var evt =window.event? event : e
if (evt.clientX < 0 && evt.clientY < 0){
alert(evt.clientX +"Window is closing...");
}

currently on our site we have and expanding <div> that responds to both the onmouseover and onmouseout events. It works wonderfully.
The UX people now would like the expanding <div> to open with the onclick event and then as soon as the mouse leaves the expanded div, it would close. I have tried using the onmouseout event in conjunction the onclick event but it does not work (the div persists).

I have several divs called 'profile', 'codesamples', 'artportfolio' and 'resume' which are hidden. I also have a visible div called 'bodytext' which is visible. When you click one of the links on my page, the function ClickButton is supposed to run, and send the information contained in one of the hidden divs into my visible 'bodytext' div. Instead, I get 'undefined' when I click one of the buttons.

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 single page with a single form, but I have split the form into 3 divs for styling purposes. I have some java script that is supposed to pull values from the text fields, and put them in a selct box using 'document.forms[0].name.value', but nothing is happening. I am wondering if having the form split into to divs is causing the JS to not be able to find the fields, using the forms array? Here is the form portion of the html code:
<form name="roster" action="">
<div id="left">
<dl>
<dt>Team Name</dt>

Here is a clip of code from a script project im working on. Now my document.getElementsByTagName is returning a "undefined" value.
<a href="[URL]" style="text-decoration: none; color: #EDDBAF; font-size: 16px;">
<center style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;">
<font style="color: #EDDBAF; font-size: 16px;" id="title"></font>
</center></a>
<li id="name"><a http="[URL]" style="color: blue;">John Doe</a></li>
<script type="text/javascript">
var pname = document.getElementById('name').getElementsByTagName('a');
Now if I remove the ".getElementsByTagName('a')" it will actually work, but it also includes the <a> tag thats within the <li> tag, which I don't want.
document.getElementById('title').innerHTML=pname.innerHTML;
</script>

Suppose we have following javascript codes: Case 1.
var foo = function (){
var x = "hello";
var bar = function () {
alert(x);
} return bar;
} var bar_ref= foo();
document.write(bar_ref()); // it pops up "hello" and print-outs "undefined".
If we modified above code slightly, shown as follow: Case 2.
var foo = function (){
var x = "hello";
var bar = function () {
alert(x);
} return bar();
} var bar_ref= foo();
document.write(bar_ref()); // it only pops up "hello".
As you can see, Case 2 modified the return value from "return bar" to "return bar()," which won't cause the "undefined" output. To me, it looks like when the JS interpreter executes the line "bar_ref();" it triggers the execution of function "foo", besides both "return bar" and "return bar()" do the same job which is to execute function body of "bar".
The only difference is that after the execution of function bar, its function body does not exist anymore, so when the interpreter executes the line "return bar;" it follows the function identifier "bar" and ends up with "undefined". This is why the Case 1 gives us "undefined", but I am not quite clear about why the Case 2 can trace down to the function body of "bar". Do you have any ideas about such difference outputs?

Part 1 of this post I have tested the file i am working on firebug and it's html output result as:undefined can anybody and i have wondered what can be done to define?
HTML Code:
<td>
<ul id="Torpedo" class="undefined">
<li class="one">
<a title="1 Star" href="javascript:RateItem('Torpedo', 1);">1</a>
</li>
[Code]...
So the problem is in the connection from the rating.class.php to rating.js or inside the rating.js where there is not reference to the rated CSS class which define stage 3 in the illustration above. as I said it is suppose to go from stage 1 to stage 3 and define immediately instead with the rated css class instead of going from stage 1 to stage2 to stage 3
there is another file used in this system and it is a javascript file call prototype.js and it seem to be a general file used by most java scripts to pull out functions from there.

I have been trying to figure this out for a few days now and have finally come to the point where I think I got it but may just need a little push to get what I want.
Heres the situation:
I have this function that uses ajax to access a database and returns the results in the responseText. That part is working fine, I have confirmed that the responseText contains the information that I need
**************code*****************************************
//new ajax already created and assigned to the variable xmlhttp//
var response_recieved = "some data";
function get_answer(Table_Name, Field_Name, Data_Type) {
[Code]....
As evidence by my posting, this is not working correctly. The variable response_recieved is coming up undefined outside of the callback function assigned to the onreadystatechangeproperty.
Based on the information that I have gathered online from various forums, I believe this issue has to deal with a problem with closure in the callback function assigned to onreadystatechange property. I don't think it has any. Based on the fact that there is no anonymous function in that function. But my problem is that the call back function is anonymous itself... I think???
get the variable response_recieved to survive outside of this function.
