I have multiple attributes (class, id and title) that is needed to insert into a div together. All I know how to use setAttribute for single attribute. So the question is there an "array" setAttribute method to insert all attributes together into an element OR is there a "after" or "before" setAttribute method I can use to insert an attribute after or before other attribute?
I know there is a problem with IE (I wont bother inserting a witty comment here) on handling:
setAttribute('onclick','doStuff');
I have found
yourAnchor.onclick = function() { // do what you want in here. }
this works, but I the script I am working on is going through every DIV with a certain class and adding links to the div, I want the button to change something within the div where it is located so I need to pass the id of the parent div. I thought perhaps there was someway to find the id of the button pressed?
I would like to grab the id attribute of every element with a specific class, and append the id names to a div.
Something a bit like:
// select everything with a class of widget, and pass all the ids to an array var idArray = $('.widget').attr('id').toArray(); // get each id in the array and seperate by a comma var idPrint = $.each(idArray, function(i, val) {
this script updates an image on a page and resets the class name of a link. Works fine in Mozilla browser. However, the setAttribute method in the second function doesn't work in IE. Is there a known bug connected with this?
Any ideas?
var view; //update image function getView(view) { var source = view.getAttribute("href"); var imgsrc = document.getElementById("view"); imgsrc.setAttribute("src", source); setClass(view); } // update class names of links function setClass(view) { var arLinks = document.getElementsByTagName("a"); var ct = (arLinks.length-1); for (var i=0; i<ct; i++) { arLinks[i].setAttribute("class", "inactive"); } view.setAttribute("class", "active"); }
I am struggling to write an meta element in JS. The meta element in question is the refresh element.
This is the code I am using
//---------------- function setMetaContent(metaTag, metaName, value) { //----------------
var metas = document.getElementsByTagName('meta');
if (debug) alert('[setMetaContent] metaTag='+metaTag+' metaName= '+metaName+' value '+value); for (var i=0; i<metas.length; i++) { if (metas[i].getAttribute(metaTag)==metaName) break; } if (debug) alert('[setMetaContent] i='+i+' value '+value); metas[i].setAttribute('content',value); }
I'm in the process of migrating a script to use DOM core methods but I've hit a roadblock in the aforementioned browser. The following code snippet illustrates what I'm basically trying to do, it really is incredibly basic!
var newimg = document.createElement('img'); newimg.setAttribute('id', 'placeholder'); newimg.setAttribute('src', 'images/large/courtyard.jpg');
I'm then positioning the element on the page using appendChild(). Everything works perfectly on Firefox 1, IE5+, Opera 8, Konqueror 3.3.1 (Linux) but not in Opera 7.54. I suspect the element is being created as associated styling on #placeholder is being applied (just some padding and borders) but the image itself is not being displayed. I assume therefore that the problems lies with setAttribute()?
This seems like the sort of problem that others would have encountered, but I haven't been able to find mention of it anywhere.
I did some searching around, but didn't see this addressed directly. Here is an example of when dot notation fails in Firefox, and when SetAttribute doesn't fail: Code:
this works perfectly in firefox - but in internet explorer it just creates the first lable and the input field, although it creates the input field as a regular text field instead of for files. the caption label and text field aren't created at all. any ideas? Code:
But I would like to put it in a function to make it general for any element that has the 'onclick' property. Is there any other way to set the 'onclick' attribute & to be understand by IE & FF?
NOTE: I also found that I can not set 'colspan', I have to set colSpan. Also, I can not set 'class' I have to use the canonical method with 'object.className=...'
Just after upgrading from v1.4.3 to v1.4.4 I started receiving this javascript error on the console, but apart from the update, I didn't do any code modifications. If I follow the console link, it takes me to this point in the source:
[Code]...
with the line in red marked as the error source. What could it be causing the error?
Im writing a piece of javascript that dynamically adds a link to a page, this is the code i'm using
var newP; newP = document.createElement("a"); newP.innerHTML = "Click here";[code].........
However, it wont work?!?! the link appears in the right place on the page when i remove the line newP.setAttribute("href","http:[url]......);and if i view the source the link is <a>Click here</a> (without any href) so there's got to be something wrong with that line but i don't know what it is.I'm using firefox.
It works OK in IE and Moz, but in Opera the change of the attribute's value works on once, first time. No error. That confuses me. Why works only once? Any ideas? Code:
I need setAttribute "src" from main windows to pop-up window (Iframe in it) and also i need to prepload all src files ONCE, so if user ever click to open pop-up and do it againt, its no need to loading againt, can anybody help with the script ... ? Or maybe can sugest me with better method to have same result.
I've been working on this for about four hours (two today, two yesterday) and keep hitting the brick wall. I'm trying to create a function that will add an attribute to specified tags. As the title says, it works great in FF and not at all in IE7. Probably the first question you'll ask after you see my code is "why?" Well, I've got a form with over 100 form fields in it, and if I can avoid manually adding an attribute to all of them, I'll take the JS route.
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:
Is the form below a valid method of changing the id of an XHTML element, specifically the one actually being referenced? It does not seem to work for me.
Is it possible to take an ASP textbox that has an attribute of visible='hidden' and make it visible from javascript? I dont want it to be visible until data on the page has been entered and thus need a way to dynamically change its visibility?
Can someone tell me if there is a universal way to check the available screen with and screen height for IE, Netscape, and Opera? Is there a universal syntax?
I'm using a jquery plugin called jplayer. I need to "bookmark" the current track.
The only way to know the current file playing is to look at the div called jplayer_playlist_current.
<li class="jplayer_playlist_current"> <a href="#" id="jplayer_playlist_item_1" class="jplayer_playlist_current">Introduction and guidance on usage</a></li>
What I want to get from it is the id, ie: jplayer_playlist_item_1
I thought that this might cover it:

But nothing I do, no amount of googling or plugins, is getting me this result.
I want to move a div around a page, and I do this by getting the original top and left values of a div, and then change them. But the problem is getting the original values; I checked online and thought that this would work:
var chart = document.getElementById(charDiv).style.top; var charl = document.getElementById(charDiv).style.left; alert('char_t:' + chart + ' char_l:' + charl + 'charDiv:' + charDiv);
charDiv is passed into the function (its the id of the div I want to move). I know that charDiv has a value by looking at the values of the alert() statement, but the values of chart and charl are empty. The alert simply outputs char_t: char_l: charDiv: charOne
I attempting to set attributes for all tags of a particular type....
I have a bunch of thumbnails <img> tags; when I wand over them I would like to show the corresponding large image with a script but the tags require onMouseOver events. I really don't feel like adding a bunch of onMouseOver="myShowScript" attributes to every img tag manually...
my scripts aren't working. I'm sure there is some fundamental concept about java and html I don't get...
here's ONE of the versions that doesn't work.. I've tried a few things but I'm open to scrapping everything for a better way...
function addAtts(){ var numberOf = document.getElementsByTagName("img"); for(i = 0; i < numberOf.length; i++){ numberOf[i].onMouseOver="myShowScript()"; } }
