I want to pass window size variables to javascript's window.open() function from a flash movie (actionscript) to javascript embedded in an html page. The idea is to generate a pop-up window when the user clicks a button in the flash movie. I've programmed the flash movie button like this:
on (release) { getURL("javascript:open_win('http://www.mysite.com', winfeatures)"); }
where winfeatures is a string containing the pop-up window options, e.g. width=400,height=300,resizable=1 . I have 'traced' the string to make sure it is formed properly. These variables may change so I don't want to just insert them verbatim as the arguments. They are read from an xml file and made into a string - e.g.
Here is the program: [URL] Basically, I want to input a number in the input box, which assigns a number to the variable numval located at document.box1.b1. When clicking on the "new window" button, an alert displays the input box value, then another window opens and displays the integers 1 through 12 and the amount squared.
I would like the new window to obtain the number from the previous window so that the new window will display integers (and their squares) from 1 to the value of numval.
I need the most efficient way of passing a variable from a parent window to a popup window.The reason i say "most efficient" is because i currently do it like this from the parent:[code]But this is inefficient because at times it randomly alerts "undefinded".Anyways, can someone tell me a more fail safe way to pass a var to a popup so that i will be able to access it 100% correctly.
This sends variables to the page okay (on a version without the onClick, opening a normal page).
Problem seems when onClick is added: where the # would normally be following the url to open the popup from colors.htm
PHP Code:
if ($row_results['Mcolor']> 2) {echo'<a href="http://www.mysite.com/colors.htm?UsrID='.$row_results['UsrID'].'" class="linebar" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../s/shades.php','','status=yes,scrollbars=yes,width=620,height=450')">more</a>';}
Is there always a conflict between javascript and php when sending vars since javascript is client side and php is server side? Is there another way to size the opened page, for instance, on... /shades.php itself? - Only doing the popup for this reason.
Inserted this in head of the destination page; shades.php itself, but not as a function. Might there be a way to activate this when the page loads, without onClick of a button from prior page?:
Note: answers along the lines of 'use jquery' or 'use (insert wellknown framework)' is not helpful.Frameworks such as jquery includes alot of extra code which is not nessary at all for what I am doing. 'But, you can include one from Google', yes that may be the case, but I prefer to keep to my own code. With that in mind, lets proceed to the problem.
I have an ajax call which doesn't pass POST vars through on IE7/IE8, but only on odd occasions. It appears to be extremely random and the majority of the time it does work. I am had a look at jquery and cannot see much difference in the way it works compared to this custom one.
I'm building a comment system modeled after Tumblr's, where each post will have it's own comments. I've modded a system from 9lessons and am having an issue implementing it for multiple instances on a page. Each post has its own ID, so I'm trying to set this up using the post's ID. It works fine for a single post, but when there's more than one on a page it doesn't work.
I have a HTML and I am opening another link in a separate window using window.open() . The child window is something like 'http://yahoo.com' which is out side html. I need to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
We have a content management system that requires us to fill in 20 fields for metadata about a page. We store the metadata in a separate database for our records.
I'd like to be able to open a window with the data from our database, click a link, and have it fill in the form in the content management system (hosted by a different organization, so window.opener is out of the equation).
I tried this
<a href="#" onClick="window.open('http://www.google.com', 'Google'); window.Google.f.q.text.value='my name'">Enter my name in Google!</a>
In this example, I'd click a link that would open up Google, then pass the value "my name" to Google's search bar. Unfortunately for me, it didn't work.
Am I asking too much? I'd hate to have to rekey or copy/paste 20 fields worth of metadata each time I create a page.
My WEB site opens an application window and then, from its original window it navigates to a status page.
Code: var newWindow function popUpApplication() { newWindow = window.open(url, parameters...);
[Code]....
Now the problem with this solution is that if the window was closed by the user I will end up with a new pop up window, which I would like to avoid... Unless there is a way to check for window existence prior to attempting to create a new window.
Would there ever be any problems with the following script depending on what type of characters are in the text string? I am appending the value of hidden form field to the query string.
//Assume JavaScript enabled browsers and popups allowed....
All three values are received at the JavaScript function. Have problems in translating and passing it to the parent. Trying to do the following from popup
I have a script that opens up another window and a task gets executed, all of that is fine, but is there anyway that the parent window (the window that gets open) can pass data to the window that opened it? (I pretty much want to enable a button on that page)
Okay, I'm having a really bad day today mentally and can't get my brain to knock this out... *sigh*I've got a simply form with 4 options (radio buttons)Whichever is selected (you can only have 1 choice) is sent to a another html page to report what the data was.2 problems;1) I can't get the information passed to the 2nd page
<script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function confirmSubmit()
I have a search page im asp.net. the user enter the criterias in textboxes and dropdownlists and on submit i want the results to be displayed in a popup window.
so the easy way is to pass the criterias in a querystring to the new window. but if it's possible i don't want to use query string.
in asp, i could use the folowing: i open a temporary blank window, on load I take the values of the search page using the window.opener and submit them to the server. Unfortunately this can't be done in asp.net coz window.opener isn't working.
so is there a way to do that ? or the only way is to pass the parameters in a querystring ?
Suppose that I have a main page with a link that opens a popup window which has a link with a parameter and I want to pass the parameter to a text input in the main page, how to do that?
