Temporarily Disable The 'submit' Button While The Browser Is Loading And Then Reactivate It Once Everything Has Finished Loading
Jun 8, 2011
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.
I have a site where the header, footer, menu and Google map remain present on most pages,but the copy in the main paragraph changes depending on which menu option is selected.The above is achieved using PHP includes and query strings.I'm using jQuery to 'fade in' the main body text when a page loads, and 'fade out' the text when a menu link is clicked on. It just looks nice, because all the stuff that is always present stays in place (I guess the browser caches it?) and just the main body text fades out and the new fades in.The thing is, the 'fade out' that is triggered by the 'click' event (on the menu link) tends to be interrupted by the browser moving on to the new page. I just want to the browser to stay for half a second so that the nice fade finishes properly. Ironically, when my connection is interrupted or the new page loads slowly, it looks at its best because the fade has time to finish
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.
Is there a clean way to determine that a page has finished loading? I have a page that basically imports photos from Facebook or something simliar to that and when it's done executing I'd like it to redirect automatically to a different page. If JS or jQuery isn't the best way to do this I'm ok with using something else as well.
I have a long (more that one screen) document, which has a iframe in the bottom. The iframe target URL contains a "bookmark" (hash mark) to scroll the iframe contents, like this: <iframe src="document.html#bookmark"></iframe> The problem with this is that the main document also scrolls down to show the bookmark in the iframe!
So I tried to solve this with a little jQuery in the main document, but I can't get it to work as it should:
The alert show that the function is triggered (and having it enabled, actually prevents the document from scrolling down), but the scrollTop() is not executed...
The form processor I'm using can take a few seconds to complete (and either take me to the thank-you page or back to the form with error messages). I'd like to change the "submit" button to a loading GIF. I'm using the following code but realize that the form (using ajaxSubmit) doesn't actually submit when I do this.
function pleaseWait() { var x = document.getElementById("submitdiv"); x.innerHTML = "Please Wait... <img src='/images/ajax-loader.gif' />"; }
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 page with various divs containing SWF's and some HTML and JavaScript. The problem is that, when the page is first visited using IE7, half of the content doesn't appear. So, I have created a loadDivs(); function that looks like this::
Code:
function loadDivs() { var mardi2= $('mardiGras'); mardi2.show();
I'm trying through a form to display a loading gif when pressed the submit button. I've found on the net this code, but something is wrong. If a keep the id="form33" I can see my loading.gif displayed in place of the submit button, but nothing else happen, form not send. If I delete id="form33", I don't see anymore the loading gif, but my form is correctly sent and after few seconds ping2.php is opened..
i know there is a onload DOM. but what i want is when someone type in url of my website. my website should open in new window.for now i m using a function on submit button which after clicking login loads the app in new window. now i want when a user enter url for my site the website shld open in new window. shld i use window.onload or body.onload
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 an application, which has to change to different images based on some conditions. I am trying to call a javascript function(this function changes the images on the front end) from the ASP script. I want to preload all the images to the client side browser and point to a different image source through the javascript.
I have a couple of questions regarding the loading of .js files for the browser and would like anyone to point me wher to find the answer (or if you know the answer and tell me will do just fine ;) ) - If I have several pages all using 'somejs.js' file this file is shared on disk and is downloaded only once... but how about in memory, is it also shared and just loaded once?
-Also, when are the .js files unloaded from memory?
-Can I unload at any given time a .js file from memory?
I have some code that performs differently in Opera than it does in any other browser. So I have a stylesheet specifically for opera. Is there a way to do something like this, where I check the browser, and if it's not opera, then load the default sheet, otherwise load the opera-specific css?

As of this writing, that code seems to break my page, as if it doesn't like loading a sheet based on an if/else clause.
I have a page with many forms that I need to change from a post to an ajax call. That part is working, no problem, but now I want to disable the submit button while it's waiting on the server response and then re-enable it when the response comes back.
I can't figure out what my selector should be to get the submit button of the form that's being submitted. What should I be using instead? Also, if the call errors out, I'd like to just post the form as usual.
I have a form without a submit button. It gets submitted programmatically with document.form.submit().
What I need is to be able to disable this form's submit capability on page load and then reenable it at some later point. Remember there is no 'input' button element.
Code: What I've tried so far is like this: savedSubmit = document.inputs.submit; document.inputs.submit = None; then later: document.inputs.submit = savedSubmit;
I have a basic page which has a PHP form. It creates a record and uploads a picture. When they user clicks submit, I need it to display a "loading" notice of some description. I was using this:
[Code]....
and then placed a div in the page but it shows the message right at the top of the screen. As the form is long, the user cannot see the message. I need to create some sort of notice so users know the form is being processed.
I'm using a Lightbox script in the "Work" section of my personal portfolio site. When I click on a thumbnail image, the script launches and everything loads perfectly - except for the fact that it loads about 1/4 of the way down the page instead of flush with the top of the browser window. Here's the whole damn thing. code...
Is it possible to get js to load a txt file in your browser (location would be file:///C:/Documents and Settings/article.txt), grab the first line and put it in a form field with id "postingTitleField"? I've been trying to figure this out but I don't see it. I tried to google it but the best I came up with is writing to a text document, and that's not what I am looking for.
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');
Here is what I am currently using for a script: <script> function detectBrowser() { var browser=navigator.appName; var navindex=navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Safari'); if (navindex != -1 || browser=='Safari') {alert("The Apple Safari browser does not calculate correctly.)"} </script> And for this to work when the page loads, I use: <body onload="detectBrowser()";>
Basically, I have received Emails from people stating that my website calculators are off by a factor of 100 for anyone using the Apple Safari browser. Since, my website calculates correctly in Internet Explorer, Netscape, Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome, I feel this is an Apple Safari problem. Anyway, the above code seems to work okay, but it generates the pop-up when people are using Google Chrome. Is there any way that the script can be changed so that it only pops up when loading Apple Safari?
i've designed a site using firefox as my primary browser. (note: i'm on an old mac so limited to only what i can run on 10.2.8) i tweaked it for safari, and then took the stuff on a jump drive to the library and tweaked it for IE6 on a pc.
what i need to do now is either hack the CSS for safari and ie (and eventually others once i get some feedback); or, use javascript to load the correct style sheet.
i've just spent two days--thursday and today since since 10 a.m.--trying to figure out first the js, and then the hack methods to no avail. (well, more, really over the past few weeks, but the two-day immersion has me totally fried.)
i'm reached the point where time is extremely critical. once i get this out in an acceptable form, i can spend more time on the learning curve.
Not what i would like but the client wants the browser re-sized on the site loading/refreshing... Been using the following and it works fine.... apart from in Safari. how i can get it working in Safari, or no chance?
