I use Microsoft.XMLDOM load() method to load an XML file into memory
and display
some elements in the browser.
However it apparently locks the file, since I get this error message
whenever a Visual Basic application concurrently tries to add an
element to the same XML file:
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
I would like not to lock this file, but open it in read-only mode
instead. In fact the browser simply needs to read its content, it
doesn't need to modify it at all. As a consequence there is no reason
to lock it.
At the same time, I need to access it from the VB process.
I have only started to learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript (roughly 2 weeks now). I am having a issues regarding when I submit form data to the server. I want to temporarily disable the 'submit' button while the browser is loading and then reactivate it once everything has finished loading. This was my attempt at doing this.
Im trying to add some simple display features to a web application and am running into some unexpected IE8 behavior. Basically, the app runs some database retrieval from the server using Ajax techniques, and during that time (say, 30 seconds), I want to just give the user a clue as to whats going on. It could be as simple as a wait cursor. More interesting, I prefer to unhide a div with an animated loading icon, then hide it again when loading is complete.
I have a site that is very jQuery and image heavy. The main sections of the site link to sections that are built with several Tabs, and as it loads, you briefly see all the content load and then it is hidden by the Tabs code.
The plan is to have a full window DIV that sits above all the content with a loading icon that plays until the entire page loads, and then it fades down.
After some hair pulling and research I have code in place that does exactly as I ask, however it does not seem to work in IE6+7. It works in all other browsers.
I have a lot of javascript functions that request information from an iframe hidden on the page. I see other sites do this, but their browser does not do the loading action (like the processing circle in Firefox). When I do it on my site, each browser shows the loading icon, as if a page was loading. Is it possible to not have this?

That is a sample link. Go down right side of page where you see three buttons: Trailers Featurettes Clips.Those return iframe information to work.
If you scroll to the bottom, and click: "See what our users have to say" and you can see the sliders.
It's working in all browsers but Safari, the script just doesn't seem to be loading, I get the loading scroller bars but they don't fully load. What is the best way to debug JS - is that the right term?
I have this loading.gif image that is 750px, when it should be 32px. The reason it's huge now is because my original solution was displaying two images: one 750px version of the loading.gif image and one 32px version (in the center of the 750px) of the same image. Now I'm at least down to one image, even if it's the wrong version.Click any of the thumbnail images here, and then again on the thumbnail at the top of that popup product gallery to see what I mean: need that huge loading.gif to be 32px like it should be, and then expand to 750px once the image is loaded. I've tried a bunch of solutions, but nothing has solved the problem.This is the code I have at the moment, although I'm working on the issue now so it may change.
$('#inline .thumbGrid img').click(function(){ var strLargeImg = document.getElementById('OBOEsac'); $('.galleryPopup').attr('src','/site/scripts/colorbox/images/loading.gif');
It's for a photo gallery like this http:[url].....php but the one I need it for has 100 images so the page loads much slower. I can't just put the loading gif behind the images (as you would normaly) because you can see it with each image fade in and out. how I can have a loading gif show "only" while the images are initially loading, and then it goes away?
I have a jQuery script that loads and displays a small window on a mouse hover. I use jQuery AJAX to load the content on that window. Having that, I noticed that loading the response from php file (which does not have a php code, only the file has .php on its name) is slower than the same file content with .html name. I wonder if this is a common problem or there is some issue with my codes. I will post my code if needed (if that seems to be the problem).Note: I mentioned that there is no php code in the php file because I am only testing the performance currently. After it is developed, there will be (obviously) php code in it.
I have created a party-events website. Which displays a lot of dates of events. As you might understand this page takes some time to load. Therefor I want some of loading image to be displayed while the page is loading. Anybody has an idea how to pull this of? I don't know how.
In detail: People come to my website. They click on "events" and a loading.gif pops up and and makes the background darker. After the page has completely loaded the loading image disappears and the website shows.
I want to read a pre tag with xml. I am working client side. I have tried everything. The <title> tag gets lost with innerHTML(ok in FF only). I tried traversing the dom and putting in the tag names but the title tag is ignored. I am trying to syntax highlight this. Everything works if I do not use certain html tags. How do I get raw text from the pre? The text would come from one of two sources, a server or inputted into a textarea by the user. It is dynamically placed in the div tag and then processed.
I have a database with information of my users, lets say their date of birth.
I want them to be able to go to my site, and login with a username and password, after which they get to see what their date of birth is (according to what's stored in the database).
I want to upload a textfile named "userinfo.txt" structured like: <username>;<password>;<date of birth>, for example: "johndoe";"johnpass";"1985-11-25" "marydoe";"marypass";"1986-02-12"
What's the javascript to have a "username/password" box popup, and when a valid name/pass was entered show the appropriate date of birth?
I have an external file, TestVar.js with a single line. NewsA("This is a test.","test.pdf","TEST")
Within my HTML I wish to use the array variables from TestVar.js, but can't seem to get them loaded for use. The following is what I have, but doesn't work. If I directly place the NewsA array in the script instead of trying to call it from the js it works just the way I want it, but I really need the external file. What am I doing wrong? Code:
I want to pass parameters thru URL. I know how to pass. I am finding problem in reading the parameters. here is the [URL]. how to to read these parameters from URL using java script?
I'm trying to read a cookie that I've set with php with javascript. The cookie is for storing the username when logging in to a site. If the cookie has been set I want the focus in the inline popup to target the password field so that the user doesn't have to tab down from the username field of the login form.
The php script stores the cookie perfectly: if (isset($_POST['remember'])){ $expire = time()+60*60*24*30; setcookie("login_username", $username, $expire); echo $_COOKIE['login_username']; } else { if (isset($_COOKIE['login_username']) || isset($_COOKIE['password'])){ $expire = time()-3600; setcookie("login_username", "", $expire); }}
The javascript: if (targetfocus == 'login_username'){ alert(readCookie('login_username')); if (readCookie('login_username') == 'username'){ targetfocus = 'password'; }} $("#"+targetfocus).focus(); ... function readCookie(name) { var cookieName = name + "="; var cookieArray = document.cookie.split(';'); for (var i = 0; i < cookieArray.length; i++){ var cookie = cookieArray[i]; while (cookie.charAt(0)==' '){ cookie = cookie.substring(1,cookie.length); }if (cookie.indexOf(cookieName) == 0){ return cookie.substring(cookieName.length,cookie.length); }return null; }}
But when trying to read the cookie in the javascript code I receive null when I put an alert to the code. Why won't the javascript find the cookie? Is it because I'm running the site localhost on my laptop? Does that have an effect on cookies?
While writing a look up for internet terms script for a site, I found the script will not read the second value in this array, I could make wl[1] a null value but would like to know what is happening if possible. All of the other elements seem to be ok!
function search(){ wl = new Array() wl[0]="applet - An Applet is a small application etc"; wl[1]="Bug? - Null but why"; wl[2]="cgi - CGI or Common Gateway Interface allows etc"; wl[3]="browser - A Browser is etc."; myWord=document.theForm.txtWord.value; myWord = myWord.toLowerCase(); for(c=0; c < wl.length; c++){ currentWord = wl[c].split(" "); alert(c + " MyWord " + myWord); alert(c + " Current " + currentWord[c]);// The alert box = 'Current -' when wl[1] is read. } }//end of function
Does anyone know how - or better yet - have a sample of how to extract information from a meta tag in an HTML document's head tag using Javascipt?
I have looked at the DOM with Firefox - but it seems so long. I'd be really interested in a better way. If someone has the javascript for walking through the DOM, that would be cool too. I havn't built it yet.
ok so I know how to do substring to read everything before a certain phrase however is there a way to read everything after a certain phrase? Ex of what this script reads and doesent read
Alex was slain by dog
Bob was slain by cat
Alex & Bob = "Var CharName" My substring reads this in this line: Var Charname CharName = msg.substring(0, msg.indexOf(" was"))[code].....
so I'm interested in knowing if there's a way through javascript, php whatever to be able to read the pages current URL. For example when the page loads and knows the difference between www.mySite.com/ and www.mySite.com/#aboutI'm trying to find if there's a way to use the '#about' as a variable for a particular script instead of just it being dummy text on the end of the URL.
I thought this would be simple for me to work out, but I can't seem to find reference to it. I'm flexable on how I call a URL, thus, if I have any one of the following:
How can I read the value to the right of the question mark?
I want to create a javascript function which reads the url, and, if the url was passed an arguement, it acts on it (namely, displays an error message)....
I'm having difficulty making a list (both drop down and radio button) read only; I am successful when I attempt to make a text field read only. Any suggestions on what java script I use to accomplish this?
If I have a link to a URL such as <a href="http://www.mysite.com/somecode.htm?5">Link1</a>, and if I include javascript in the somecode.htm file, is there a javascript command that I can use which will read the argument 5?
For that matter, is there anyway to send an argument to the javascript code of an html link you are calling. Server scripts are not an option for me.
For example, assuming that index.htm contains 50 links, I would like each link to point to the same html file, but I want that javascript code in that html file to execute something different depending on which link was clicked.
My only other alternative would be to create 50 similar html files which to me looks like amateur or bad coding.
