been a while since i been to the experts for help figures i was about due for an issue beyond my solving capabilities
ok so the code The function containing the rogue setTimeout
function refresh_timer(){
//alert(window.timer);
var total = getTotal();
document.getElementById('status').innerHTML = 'Updating in '+ (total-(window.timer+1))+' seconds.';
if((total-window.timer) == 0){
I have created a script that needs to constanstly poll a webpage, I do this with a controling function that fires off different functions to do the work, then restarts by calling itself after a second using settimeout.
on IE it runs forever, on firefox it stops after a while,
what am I doing wrong?
is there a limit on the number of times you can go around this type loop you can go around in firefox?
if there is a limit, how do I get around it?
Would it be freak out if the function is already running when it is fired again?
I am trying to make a simple image change involving an animated gif using javascript. After 5 seconds, the original image (which is simply a transparent pixel gif) changes to an animated gif.
in the body:
Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
[Code]...
I know this isn't a problem with the gif itself, because displaying the gif in firefox does not produce any issues. Does anyone know why these problems are occurring in firefox? I'd like not to have to use a broken src link to make it work, and it's weird that that's a way to solve the animation issues.
I have encountered an issue with Javascript and my novice skill set has not allowed me to find a solution. On a page I have several images, when the user clicks on an image I pass some info about that image to my display html page. In the display page I want to display two images so I append Zoom.jpg and Medium.jpg to the string I passed. FireFox displays both images but IE does not seem to know what to do with it.
well as the title indicates I have a little bit of javascript code that works perfectly in IE but not at All in FireFox. the code checks the length of text in a textarea. the code for the textarea: Code:
i used setTimeout() function in my image gallery to scroll images , i used setTimeout("myfunction()",1) in my script. Now my image gallery is working properly but problem is that the speed of scrolling images if normal in firefox, but in internet explorer it is slow, and in google chrome it is very fast , Sir how to resolve this problem
I'm writing a SOAP type application that only works over ssl. Authentication works with Firefox but fails when I use a different browser. For some reason, chrome, opera, IE all omit the POST information and I don't understand why. Below is the requests sent to the server from Firefox and Opera. Following that is the javascript that sends the password. My js skills are pretty weak to say the least. Is "document" cross compatible or different for all browsers?

This program (the search function) works well with IE8 but it is a mess with Firefox. My knowledge of Javascript is very limited:o. I have been unable to find what is wrong.
I have created a very simple JavaScript code to display larger images of a thumbnail image on the main section of a website. It works fine in FF3 however in IE 7 is giving me an error code of Invalid argument on line 6 character 1. The funny thing is I have used this exact code in another site and it worked fine with IE 7.
I am getting the following error in firefox and nothing happens when I click on the image map.
The "coords" attribute of <area shape="rect"> tag is not in the "left,top,right,bottom" format. As you can see above, I am using shape="poly" and not shape="rect".
Usually it's the other way (IE works, Firefox not working)... but here it is. IE does render something, although it puts the advert script (starting on line 9) at the very end, after the close of the last table. Firefox displays it as I have intended it (Ad inside the table). Code:
I've inherited a page that enters data into a database, some of the fields are calculated and one uses today's date. In Firefox it all works fine but in IE it wont load the full page.
I have a javascript function on my page named "print", that opens up a new window and a print dialog so the user can select a printer and print the page. The html itself is in a frame, so the print function extracts the innerHTML and then presents it to the user in the new window. After extracting the innerHTML, I'm attempting to remove any links to avoid having the user click on them (I just want the user to print). This works fine in FF (3.6.9), but causes IE (IE7 and 8) to lock up in a rather nasty manner. The "destination" in this case is simply the current page (e.g., index.aspx).
When a user visits index.html on my site, they input their email address. The form redirects them to "confirmed.html", the form also writes a cookie with their email address.When the user gets to confirmed.html, I use an "if/else" statement. If there is a cookie (email address), I append ("#"+user_email) to the window location. I do this so that when the user shares with "addthis" tool, I will know who is sharing. Unfortunately addthis only shares the current page, so I want new users to the site to be redirected to index.html My code works in firefox, but not safari. In safari it just seems to redirect to index nomatter what. The user never even sees confirmed.html.
var user_email = unescape(document.cookie); if (document.cookie) {
