How can I use Javascript to look at variables passed from another page
using the GET method( a website address) and load that website?
Basically, I have a link that should open the targeted link in a blank page, and upon the link being clicked, the original page's URL should be changed. The reason for this is that the user has to browse information on another website, and then pass the information on to me via a contact form, so rather than make them click back on my tab in the browser, and then find the "Contact" page link to fill in the form, I thought it would a good feature to simply go ahead and load the "Contact" page upon them clicking the link to the external page (which of course loads in a new tab). Here is the code I have in place:
Code JavaScript:
<a href="http://www.othersite.com/" target="_blank" onclick="window.location.href='http://www.mysite.com/contactus.php';">Other Site</a>
This all works fine on my computer, regardless of the browser that I use. One of my partners on this project called me this morning and said that the link was taking him directly to the "Contact" page without opening the "Other Site." This is strange because after I put this in place, I showed it to him and it worked fine. Now, a few days later, and it does not work. He said that he cleared his browser cache, history, cookies, etc. and the problem did not go away. He uses IE8. After he told me it was no longer working, I went to test it myself, and it works fine for me no matter which browser I use (IE8 or 9, Firefox 3 or 4 Beta).
why this might have worked one day and not the next? Is it simply a problem on his computer, or could it be an issue where based on what type of browser you are using, this won't work. Also, I know this is the JavaScript forum, but is there a way to do this in PHP without using the JavaScript onclick event? Obviously, I can't use the header() function since this functionality needs to be present on a link within text of a page.
I have a simple script that will get the NWS forecast for any zip code and it opens it in a new tab. I would like it to open in an iframe on another page with in my website. I have come close, but not quite all the way yet. This will enter the forecast in an iframe on the same page as the input form. [URL]
How can it load onto this page from the form on the menubar? This menu is common on all the sites pages.
I have seen solutions posted around the internet using javascript for similar issues, but I haven't been able to get any to work in my situation. My javascript skills are - none.
i know how to use javascript to make a specific page load into an iframe but not how to make the page load into the iframe on another page. all i need to know is how to do it for one page then i think i can build the decision structure around it to make it work for more than one link (hopefully).

I have 3 bits of code, 2 of which I'm pretty sure are right [i know the php works, and the ajax looks fine], but one i'm having trouble with. Basically what I'm trying to do is use a link to call php function [calls a piece of text from a database]. Which worked fine. But then I tried to incorporate AJAX into the script to make change dynamically on the page, and I'm a little confused with it all. I've got the AJAX and PHP, [and an attempted page with a link on to try and call the function with AJAX] but so far it's not doing as it should. Wondered if anyone could show me where I'm going wrong with the whole 'linking together' thing? So far everything I've tried hasn't worked. [hope this doesn't violate the forums 'don't dump your code' rule. But it's kind of all necessary]

I'm trying to link to a jQuery tab (the second tab) from an external source and havent had much luck so far. I found this on the jQuery UI demo's page:
...select a tab from a text link instead of clicking a tab itselfvar $tabs = $('#example').tabs(); // first tab selected $('#my-text-link').click(function() { // bind click event to link $tabs.tabs('select', 2); // switch to third tab return false;
});
But cant figure out what I should be putting in "#my-text-link
", what is itreferringtoo?
My second tab is called '#tabs-2' so I assume that's what I place into'#example'
?
I have a website for tanning salon services. Salon A's page has links for 4 possible equipment choices - (diamond, platinum, gold, bronze levels) on the [I]Sunbeds page. Sunbeds page has 2 iFrames, top and bottom, that are changed by 4 functions - changediamond(), changebronze(), etc. based on the selection. I need to be able to click a link on the Salon page that will take me to the corresponding function on the Sunbeds page...
Here's what I have so far:
Salon A page
<a href="sunbeds.htm?javascript:changediamond()"><img src="images/nr_diam_sm2.jpg" alt="Diamond Level Sunbeds" /></a>
(thru)
<a href="sunbeds.htm?javascript:changebronze()"><img src="images/nr_brnz_sm2.jpg" alt="Bronze Level Sunbeds" /></a>
Sunbeds page
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
function changediamond() {
parent.FRAME1.location="sb_top_ct1.htm";
parent.FRAME2.location="sb_bot_ct1.htm";
}
(thru)
function changebronze()
{
parent.FRAME1.location="sb_top_ct4.htm";
parent.FRAME2.location="sb_bot_ct4.htm";
}
</script>
.

<a href="javascript:changediamond()"><img src="images/diamond_sm2.jpg" alt="Diamond Level Sunbeds" /></a>
(thru)
<a href="javascript:changebronze()"><img src="images/bronze_sm2.jpg" alt="Bronze Level Sunbeds" /></a>
The links take me to the correct page but not the function. Once I'm there I can select the functions and the iFrame change works great. I'm just at a loss for passing along the data string i.e., sunbeds.htm?javascript"changediamond()
How would I go about creating the coding for a submit button that links to another page? And I would I go about creating the coding for the reset button that resets the page? I go about creating a code to do so, but it never works. Here is the coding I have for the submit button:
<p id="pbuttons"><center>
<input type="reset" value="Reset" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit Order">
</center></p>
i've followed this javascript and i'd like to link the text to one of my page.How do i place the ahref tag in the script.[URL]...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need guideline with a script I am using for a link on my index page to load up a different page with two iFrames on it and at the same time load up different pages in each of these iFrames. I have achieved this with only one iFrame so far with this script:
1. <script type="text/javascript">
2. <!--
3.
4. function loadIframe(){
5. if (location.search.length > 0){
6. url = unescape(location.search.substring(1))
7.
8. window.frames["main"].location=url
9. }
10. }
11.
12. onload=loadIframe
13. //-->
14. </script>
15.
16. <a href="mainpage.html?about.htm"</a>
So basically when I click on Link1 on Page1 it takes me to Page2 with iFrame1 with a page loaded and iFrame2 with nothing loaded whereas I would like Link1 on Page1 to load up Page 2 with two different pages loaded in the iFrames all at the same time.
I have put together an image gallery that contains links to each individual image, however, I would like to link to individual images on a separate html document and cannot for the life of me determine how to go about doing this.

I am trying to link to a specific nested tab fromanother page. So let's say I'm on the home page, and I want to link to: productspage > Widgets (parent tab #2) > Large Widgets (Parent tab #2's child tab #3). In other words; Directly to a non-default nested tab, from acompletely different page. Linking to the parent tabs works fine (with a standard anchor link e.g.; [URL]), but I can't figure out how to link to one of their child tabs (besides what is set as default)
Here is a stripped down version of the setup I have (I just typed most of it out, so forgive any obvious syntax errors, my pages on the site all validate):

I am building a static website, and I have images in my index page each image has a title name, how do I make an image clicked to open in a different window if clicked, I have a template page designed to be used for opening an image in a different window if clicked but I don`t know how to configure everything. Secondly, I would want the image to be placed in a particular section in the template page.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would live to find a different way to do this, but evidentially I am not able
to open a Text-File in JAVASCRIPT and fill an Array with the Values, so I have
to do it this way.
I am doing the following:
I'm using 'this' so that only the element that is clicked changes, what I need is some way of specifying a background color for anything that isn't 'this' and then continue to change the clicked element. Is this possible? The only other way I can think of is to add a class to each menu item and then only apply the backgroundColor = "Transparent" if the class of the clicked element matches that stored in a variable and other wise apply the standard background color. Though I may be shooting wide of the mark. Code:

I am working on a page where I have included an instance of FCK Editor (which is just a script that creates your standard Rich Text Editor interface inside a form).
What I want to do is call a function which retrieves the newly typed data (along with the formatting) and does something with it.
The "problem" is that FCK creates it interface inside an Iframe inside another IFrame. No problem for FireFox, Netscape, etc... It just a matter of a couple "getElementById()"s and "contentDocument"s. However IE does not support contentDocument. Instead IE puts all Frames (including IFrames) in the frames array. Which is fine, I can still navigate my way down the tree to my target Iframe with document.frames[0].frames[0]... the trouble is, you cannot (or I can't figure out how) to access elements on the page inside the nested Iframes. I can access properties of the Iframes (such as location).
I'm thinking that this is how IE is "supposed" to work but is there any way that I can access elements inside a page inside of an Iframe or nested Iframes? Code:
I'm using the following line to delete cookies. It works great in Firefox, but in IE the cookie still exists, it's just lost all of its data. I can check to see if the data is there, and ignore the cookie if it isn't, but since I'm looping through my cookies when the page builds, I rather it be completely removed.
Code:
document.cookie = name + "=noop; expires=Thu, 01-Jan-70 00:00:01 GMT" + "; path=" + path;
I have a cgi program which outputs a fairly hefty amount of
html/javascript for doing a complex slide show sorta thing in a variety
of areas in the browser. I accomplish this by creating a series of
iframes and populating each iframe which its own copy of the code and a
list of items to display. It previously had it working tickety-boo
with both IE 6 and Firefox. I've had to concentrate on adding new
features to the IE side and am now attempting to get everything working
properly in Firefox.
The issue I'm running into is when I use the form
document.getElementById('some_id').someFunction Firefox often replies
that the object has no properties. I've handcoded some smaller
versions of the my program in straight html and, sure enough, they work
great. So, I'm screwing something up in my main program whereby
Firefox can't see the objects. Code:
This is the loop I'm trying to use to check for bullets hitting rocks. the function worked if I used actual numbers instead of the j variable, but I wanted to loop through all the rocks.Can anyone see why the inner function loses the j index and says asteroids[j] is undefined? the hit test is removing the bullets! it's working! the asteroids[j] was used in the hit test!
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy website is an Magic the Gathering website, so it involves card,cardsid,decks etc.I have a searchresult.php page, which shows the results(cards) after you an SQL query has searched through my SQL database.Then every result get's a links(add card to deck) behind it which opens an unique popup window.Now my problem is, in this popup there must be an unique form which check via ajax whether the 'card' is already in the deck. Well I got as far as this works, well it does for my first search result.Altough the input's are unique in every popup, as they should be. Only the values of the input's of my first searchresult are submitted to the process form.

will be used.
The form is automatically submitted using javascript. This code works in IE
and in Firefox.
The problem I am facing now is that the series of these same pages I am working with are now being used inside an iframe. Since this change, the javascript submit no longer works in Firefox, but does in IE. Code:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm dynamically generating an image tag, and the final slash for self-closing the tag is not coming through, even though the slash is escaped with a backslash. Worse, I think this is screwing up my attempt to select the image in another function. Any ideas what could be causing problems?
