On one of my sites, I have a reather involved page (searchable map).
When the person leaves the page then all the AJAX generated
information is lost. Is there a way that I can retain all this data
in a cookie or so or how would you recommend I saved all the users
information (perhaps using a database on the serverside).
Can I make a list of hyperlinks that users can customize and save as a cookie by clicking a button and automatically retrieve the cookie so it remembers their list next time? This is kind of what I want to do:

I need to take some action when the user leaves my website. By leave I mean one of the following two cases:
1) Closes the browser
2) Goes to some other site (different domain)
Is there a way to detect this? I know that the event onbeforeunload and onunload gets fired when the user leaves the page, but these also get fired when the user leaves page A in my site and just goes to page B in my site. I don't want to alter every link within my site to fire the onclick event and in such event to "remember" in a JavaScript variable this is a navigation within my site. I am looking for some clean solution if one exists. For example, is there a way to get the information in the DOM where the user is going to when the onbeforeunload or onunload are fired?
I'm trying to set a cookie when a user enters a page. The cookie is for youtube to make videos default to widescreeen.
I know that the cookie name is wide, the value should be set to 1, the domain should be .youtube.com but I dont know how to do it properly. Ive been trying to set it from a link, so when a user clicks the link and it opens in a frame, the cookie is set so that the youtube video opens as widescreen in the frame.
however, whenever I look at my list of cookies, it isnt being created.
is this the best way to do this?
(I found how the cookie is created by checking the values of the cookies when I pressed the 'right turn' arrow on a youtube video)
I have this in a FORM tag:
OnSubmit="return SendForm(this);
to save the content of the form in a cookie. But I need to save it a on windows print,
where I reload the form with a css for print. Therefore the form must be filled in again from the cookie. But how do I save the form without submitting ?
I retrieve the saved data with:
onLoad="OldForm(document.forms(0));
I found this script online that lets users on an iPhone drag boxes around the screen. The problem is that when you reload the page, the boxes are in different positions than what they were before the reload. Like, you would drag the boxes around and then reload the page, but the boxes would be in the default locations. I want the boxes to stay in the same spot that they were the previous time they moved them. Does that make sense? Anyways, here's the example I found online: [URL] Only works on iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch.

Its very basic but does what I want. What I'm attempting to do is store the image selected as a cookie so that when users refresh/navigate to other pages the image stays to the one they selected.
I am using a script found on Dynamic Drive and edited it a bit to fit my needs. Its a script to toggle a content area and at the same time display a + or - depending on if the content is displayed or not. The problem, the state of the content area is saved in a cookie, but the +/- state is not. I have gone over some cookie tutorials and looked through the forums, but I just couldnt figure how to edit the code to make the +/- save state. Code:

I want to detect if a user is coming from a given url. If he is, the url is stored in a cookie and a div is displayed in top of the pages when he navigates around the site.
How do I do that?
how to save data like : position, style, etc in a cookie, using jquery, and then to load that data back if i need to.
I've been researching and i found some plugins but i cant put the script together,
i would like a simple working example or some good documentation because from what i read it doesn't seem to be very hard, but on every forum I've been that talks about cookie setup there is not so much info
i need to know how to do this, Im reading the documentation and I know I have to get the cookie plugin and set up the variable:

i have a table of images, with onmouseover,onmouseout and click events. The user can select and deselect an image. When an image is selected, the image scr changes.
Then the user can confirm his selections and redirect to another page for the checkout process. When he returns to the first and initial page, i want his selections to have a different image (lets say confirmed.gif).In other words to save his selections in a cookie and return them by changing the images so that they wont be available for selection.
In order to find which images are selected and store them in an array i can use the following loop:
function getSelected(){
var myArray = [];
var images = document.getElementsByTagName("img");
for (i=0;i<images.length;i++){
[Code]....
How i can save that array with the images tittles in a cookie, so that when the initial page loads i can find which images to change and then change the image.src to confirmed.gif ?
I'd like to detect when the cursor leaves the page, and this doesn't work:$(document).mouseleave(aFunction); // Same with mouseout, too.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a .Net website that uses a text file to record when visitors arrive on a page.
However, I really want it to also store the date and time that a visitor leaves a page. I can easily calculate the time spent on pages within a session but currently have no way of knowing how long someone spent on the last page they visited during a session.
What I need is a script that runs when a page is unloaded. The script will update a text file (stored in the htdocs folder of the site) with the current time.
So far, I have come to the conclusion that I may need to use JavaScript and the window.onbeforeunload event but I cannot get any further.
I've been researching cookies a bit, and I attempted to create a function that if you select a background name from a drop down list or anything for that matter, it will save the background in the cookie, and display it in a div background for later use. Now I can't quite figure out why there is a problem with this script, but the error checker tells me there is.
Heres the code:
<script type="text/javascript">
//Get Cookie
function get_cookie(Name) {
var search = Name + "="
var returnvalue = "";
if (document.cookie.length > 0) {
offset = document.cookie.indexOf(search)
// if cookie exists
if (offset != -1) {
offset += search.length
// set index of beginning of value
end = document.cookie.indexOf(";", offset); .....
I have lots of links in the page, click each one addClass 'voted' to this link. then save the effection into cookies. so that next time refresh web browser, it will save the addClass event. I use jquery cookie here: [URL] My code here, but it will only save 1 cookie. I mean if I clicked link 1, link 2. it always remember the last click. refresh the web browser. only link 2 addClass 'voted'. link1 missed addClass event. so how to save multiple cookie for every link?

I have a Javascript used to adjust the fontsize on a webpage. This JS does not create a cookie to save the users setting, so if he goes to another page on the site, the default font size is shown.This is the JS;
Code:
var min=8;
var standard=11;
var max=15;[code]..........
What I need, is some code that will create a cookie, so that the users settings will be used throuout his whole visit.
how to store variables in cookies so that I can later use them in php code.Here is the basic javascript I want to use:
Code:
function alertSize() {
var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0;
if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) {[code]....
Now, I want to save myWidth and myHeight in a cookie(s) but I don't know how to. The window.alert() will only be for testing purposes and will not be needed in the final code. I also need to know if the codes need to be in certain sections such as <head>, etc.]
I need to write code to prompt the user to save the changes before the user session expires. And this should happen only when the user makes any changes, if he doesnt make any changes, I should not be prompting him. For this I need to check if any fields are modified in the page. I need a generalised code that goes in the header or footer page of the application, so that I dont have to make any changes to the existing 100 pages.

What am I doing wrong/What am I not doing?
I've wrote what (at least in my mind) and awsome report generator for a group who uses my server. The user gets all the data from the server via the server's normal reporting tools, and then sorts/shows/hides/formats columns using javascript/jquery (saves server cycles). There is only one slight problem (think "grand canyon" slight), once a user has a form he or she wants, then the user needs to save the tab separated value form of the report to disk.
I can output the TSV into a DIV (and probably an IFRAME I'm guessing), and do for display purposes. However, the users need to copy/paste at this point, which is rather user-unfriendly. Is there a way to either prompt a file download/save (without making a call to the server and wasting time), or opening up a new tab with just the desired text, so the user can save it?
EDIT: I'd rather not replace the whole page that generates the report, as the user probably doesn't want to lose his or her work in formatting setings, and my want to generate multiple reports from one dataset/query, without having to rewrite the query.
I have a confirm message box which asks the user whether they wish to take a survey. At the moment the confirm box appears each time the page is loaded. Would there be a way that when the user selects OK to take the survey this is remembered, so when the users next visit the page the box doesn't appear?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using Klaus Hartl's"jQuery Cookie plugin" to send variables between pages with Jquery. Works like a smile in Chrome BUT messes everything up (reloads the whole page into a one of it's div's) in FireFox and (of course) IE... Can this be accomplished without using cookies?
The script in the receiving page looks like this:
I am trying to design a system that allows users to draw on a whiteboard with different colors, save their drawing into hidden input boxes in the form on the page, then they can click Save Logo to save it to process it through PHP. I have the whiteboard that allows them to draw, but I am lost as to how to get the thing to populate the hidden input boxes.
So, I have the following code:
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
[code]....
What I am trying to do is use the function mousedown(e) to include an event to update a hidden input box with the value of the TD's background color that the hidden input field is attached to, so that it can be tracked when the user hits Save Logo at the bottom of the page. When they hit Save Logo, I want the form to post to itself, go through each of the input hidden fields and capture the color for each table cell, then generate an image based on the generated array, save it to a file on the server with the user's $_SESSION['userid'] as the filename + .jpg.
The problem is, though, that I do not know how to tell JavaScript to do this in the function mousedown(e) code. Also, look in the function table_create and see if I am naming the hidden input boxes correctly; not sure if it will generate the wanted result.
Just a note: I can handle all the PHP handling of the form, I just need help with the Javascript.
Edit: I attached the entire script/page to this post because so many functions rely on each other to operate, and I'm not exactly sure which function will need to be modified to get the desired result. Also, you can copy the code to a .php file to see what it looks like (as that may assist in demonstrating exactly what I'm trying to do, visually).
Edit 2: I suppose what I need to find is how to get the JavaScript to assign a value to the hidden input field that has the same id as the TD field that it needs to be linked to.
