SetTimeout() Function Not Supported In An IE Version
Jul 30, 2009
does anyone know if the setTimeout() function in js has been just recently supported? i created an online demonstration of a product that uses this function to delay the playing of .wav files after various second intervals. i know that Opera doesn't support this function because when I click my button, all of the .wav files that i have in the function that runs behind the button play at once. i have probably 10 wav files that are played throughout the function, at various conditional statements. does anyone know if earlier (like REALLY old) versions of IE do not support this function? or maybe ie8 doesn't support it? i developed this and tested it in all major browsers except IE8 and any version earlier than IE6.
I want to change the elements class name dynamically when mouse is out with respect to that element.I want to change the class name after some delay (i.e, i am using settimeout function).
var ulNodes = getElementsByClass("nice-menu"); var liNodes = null; for(var i = 0; i < ulNodes.length; i++) { liNodes = ulNodes[i].getElementsByTagName("li"); for(j = 0; j < liNodes.length; j++) { if(liNodes[j].className == "menuparent") { liNodes[j].onmouseout=function(){ timer = window.setTimeout(function (){ this.className = "menuparent"; //My problem is with //this line },4000); } } } }
I need to set the elemets class name to "menuparent" after some delay after the pointer moves away form that element.
-> When ever i say alert(this.className); in the setTimeout function, the alert box says undefined. -> I can succesfully alert any where else in the mouseout function except within the settimeout function in mouseover function of that element.
I am using Jquery 1.2.6 version with existing website. I want to animate something on mouse over and for it I used animate function for it but I not able to get expected result.
It seems like it just runs the last setTimeout line and pops out all at once. I've even tried adding a=, b=, c=,. etc at the begining of each line to no avail.
I have problems updating from version 1.7.2. to version 1.8. I'm using a custom theme - can anybody give me a step-by-step guide how to update without destroying the whole site ? :) I would like to have the button featueres in the new version
I did search the forums but couldn't seem to find anything on this specifically. I basically need to pass a key event and a 'name' to nameCheck() after 3 seconds. This works fine in Firefox but Internet Explorer gives the error: Member not found. I'm more of a PHP guy than a JS one
<input type="text" onkeyup="nameCheckTimer(this.value, event)" value="" /> function nameCheckTimer(name, evt) { setTimeout(function(){return nameCheck(name,evt)}, 3000); } function nameCheck(name, evt) { //need name and the key event to be available here. I have code to handle the key codes which works fine }
I am trying to use the window.setTimeout feature so that a message pop-up with yes/no appears on the screen asking whether to extend the session.*If yes is clicked, the current page reloads.*If no is clicked, nothing happens. (the session will expire anyway).
I have written the following code (quite meaningless. Just to check why setTimeout is not working in a similar real-life code) to enable the user to input a given time interval (hh:mm:ss) when a p is clicked, and then alerting the user with the time entered in the seconds portion one second after the div is clicked. But it is not working. I think the setTimeout is the culprit, the way I am passing parameters to the function inside it, but don't know where exactly am I erring.
I have a button that when you click it displays the results of my db in a div. What I am trying to do is to get the results to update every five seconds.
I thought setTimeout was the best way to achieve this. However I am getting the error message that ID is not defined on the setTimeout line. I thought it would automatically input ID into the fields marked ID when the onloadXMLDocRefres ('File.php','txtHint') button is clicked?
The button works to load the script, but the refreshing the div is not.code...
I wanted to write my own script for a fade-in animation, since the ones I have found have got too many options or need some framework, which makes them unnecessarily big. I wanted to learn too.Unfortunately, the code didn't work as I wanted, and I commented some things so as to find out what's happening.Why is an object reference assigned to what was previously a string?
I'm trying to graph line with a delay between each line drawn - my code is: var jg = new jsGraphics('Canvas'); jg.setColor('maroon'); jg.drawLine(40,130,80,120); setTimeout('jg.paint()',10000); jg.drawLine(80,120,120,110); setTimeout('jg.paint()',10000); Unfortunately it draws all the lines at the same time i.e the setTimeout function doesn't like the paint method.
I'm new to JavaScript, and have been playing around with a few simple functions to get going. However, I've hit a problem that I just can't fix, I'm trying to write a simple function to animate the collapse of a div using setTimeout (I know, jQuery does it a lot better), and it's gotten the best of me. The only error it's giving me now is
Code: missing ; before statement on line 25 but I can't see why. I assume it's something to do with my abuse of the setTimeout syntax (why does it insist that everthing is enclosed in quotes.I'm sure there are much better scripts than mine, and searching the forum I've come across Vic Phillips' fine specimen which mostly went over my head. But if I just wanted it to work I'd use jQuery - I'm more interested in why it's not working.
code is below. In addition to this I've also got an external script to compensate for browsers without getElementsByClass, but it should work in modern browsers up to the point where it doesn't!
I am trying to get started using JQuery, but I find I can't even get to lesson #1. When I go to jquery.com and click to download the latest version (or any version) it doesn't "download" anything. It opens the file as a webpage in my browser and I see all the JQuery in one big string. Why won't the file just download? Is it the browser I am using? Is it my Mac?
I'm using jQuery SVG and would like to check if the browser that the person is using will support SVG --- if not, they'll receive a polite message; is there anyway to check this using javascript?
Is there anyway using Javascript, one can determine whether or not the browser viewing the page supports a particular CSS property or value? For example, I know IE6 doesn't support the value of "fixed" for the "position" property, so is there anyway I can determine this with Javascript, without resorting to browser sniffing?
Can anyone let us know that what jQuery APIs are supported in Andoid 2.3.4. It would be helpful if you can provide sheet/list of jQuery APIs in different categories like TRAVERSAL,CORE,UI,AJAX etc which are supported in Android 2.3.4.
I would like to know whether anyone can tell me which plattforms are supported by jQ Touch. On the homepage of jQ Touch it is said, that is "for mobile web development on the iPhone, Android, iPod Touch, and other forward-thinking devices" SO what is meant by that. Which other browsers are supported?
What I want to do is somehow get my browser version through javascript:
Code:
var browse = navigator.appName; and then mail that to myself. I can't figure out how to get that variable into php so I can email. I'm aware of the difference between client/server side, so I need to know how I could POST the value to another page or something.
I've been working on a WP site that uses a handful of plugins - several of which include java-script files. I've been having trouble with one of the plugins and have started the debugging process and noticed that the page the problem is occurring on shows a few java-script errors. [URL]. What do the "Object Not Supported" errors mean - and what would it entail to fix them?
