View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to debug javascript in a web application? When I

not Javascript code.
What should I do to debug javascript code?
I need to have a way to create a link that opens a specific word document.
How can I write a javascript function to do that?
My work is putting in a large application that is basically split up
between 30 or so Javascript files. I have some security concerns about
this application.
Basic security concerns is:
1. Possible SQL injection and other forms of injection attacks on URLS
of various server side components javascript accesses.
2. possible client side database access.
3. Incorrect use of http get for operations with possible side effects.
The security problems are probably relatively harmless. Mainly because
the application should be running behind firewall.
However I would like to have an analysis tool that can go over the
javascript code and allow me to see what urls are being called with
what parameters.
Javascript that writes new javascript into page (so I can get all
javascript files of application for analysis)
I know there are various javascript profilers and the like, anything
out there that helps in the analysis of this kind of application?
I have an application in the form of "*.exe" file and i need to
execute this and evaluate the returned values within Javascript.
Is this possible ?
I am writing a java application as a mozilla extension.
Because mozilla uses javascript for the frontend,

countless times before, but I can't find an answer anywhere.
Does anyone have a snippet of JavaScript code I could borrow which
calculated the difference in years and days between two dates, and
takes leap years into account?
I'm calculating the difference in the usual way, i.e....
var difference = dateTo.getTime() - dateFrom.getTime();
....and converting this millisecond value into days by using...
var daysDifference = (difference/1000/60/60/24);
But how do I then display the difference in days AND years? I've tried
the following:
var yearsDifference = Math.floor(daysDifference/365.25);
var daysLeft = Math.floor(daysDifference-(yearsDifference*365.25));
....but it gives me inaccuracies. For example, if I use my code to
calculate the difference between 05/01/1998 and 05/01/2000 it returns 1
year and 364 days!
I am looking for a generic javascript function to identify the form with in which a element exists, thus developer can avoid coding like document.forms[index].submit() - where they are sure, they want the form with in which this element exists is to be submitted. This way when forms are introduced at top level the code can remain unchanged, else every form introduce above in the DOM will result in increasing the index by one.
The code is given below. While doing so i am stuck with 2 problems
P1: In the code, you can see i am giving a explicit 'break' in the code. If i don't do so the code seems to be looping. Obviously i am missing some basic.
P2: I am able to pass 'this' for anchor element by name="xy"
<a href="#" name="xy"
in its onclick function by which, in the javascript function i move up the DOM.
While i am unable to do that on the anchor element given below since this function is now on the href attribute.
<a name="xy1" href="javascript:doFormSubmit(this);">Q test</a>
Hence the script fails. Code:
how the class attribute works in CSS: I can specify that every attribute with class="foo" be italicized with: .foo {font-style: italic;}
What if I want to do the same sort of thing in Javascript? Is there something built-in like document.GetElementsbyClass("foo").style = "italic" (I'm just making this code up of the top of my head, I don't know how javascript works.)
It seems to me that with JavaScript you're supposed to use the name="" attribute instead of class="". Why the diference?
I looked at webmonkey that had an article about this, but their writing style is simply confusing and I can't make heads or tails of their articles.

I have an HTML application (.hta) working fine, except one thing. I'm
trying to write to a local database from a .htm window (opened from
the main .hta window) and it doesn't work with any of the combinations
I've tried (and I admit to having tried a lot).
Here is one method I've tried:
strSQL = "Update myTable SET myField = 'myValue' WHERE myID = 12;"
var db = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection");
db.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0";0
db.ConnectionString = "Data Source='c:myDirectorymyDatabase.mdb'";
db.Open;
db.execute(strSQL);
I can easily access the information in the myDatabase.mdb and display
it on the screen.
I can ask for updated information to be input on the screen.
But stuffing that updated information back into the database is the
problem.
Since I'm stuck in an .htm window, I don't have VBScript available, do
I? If VBScript isn't available and it isn't physically possible with
Javascript, then I'll have to revert to .hta windows, where I know I
have VBScript available. But I'd rather do it all in Javascript
within the .htm so as to avoid the security message that pops up when
the .hta opens a new .hta. For various reasons I don't think it is
possible for me to do this whole project within a single .hta.
I am trying to use the Goto method of the Word ActiveX object. I am

I'm working on some code and am running into brick walls. I'm trying
to write out Javascript with Javascript and I've read the clj Meta FAQ
and didn't see the answer, read many similar posts (with no luck
though), and searched through the IRT.ORG Faqs
(www.irt.org/script/script.htm).
The Javascript is designed to open an popup window and then inside that
window call another script which will resize that window. There may be
another way around this but the reason I tried this approach initially
was that I wanted to call the onload handler in the popup window to
resize the image only after the image had completely loaded. I've had
some code in the primary Javascript file (showimage.js) before that
works if the image has been cached but on the first load, it doesn't
resize properly which tells me it is probably because it is trying to
resize the window based on the image size but it isn't completely known
at that point. So I removed that code and tried placing the resizing
code in the second Javascript file (resizewindow.js). BTW I've tried
other code to open a popup image and automatically size it ie Q1443 at
irt.org but that doesn't do exactly what we need.
Even if there is another way to do this with one file, I still want to
figure out why this isn't working in case I run into it in the future.
I thought what I would need to do to use document.writeln to write
Javascript would be to escape any special characters and to break
apart the script tag ie
document.writeln('</SCRIPT>');
would become
document.writeln('</SCR' + 'IPT>');
I have a HTML page and 2 Javascript files. All files are in the same

{
picWindow=window.open('','','width=25,height=25,sc rollbars=1,resizable=1');
picWindow.document.writeln('<html> <head>');
picWindow.document.writeln('<SCR' + 'IPT type="text/javascript"
LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="resizewindow.js"></SCR' + 'IPT>');
picWindow.document.writeln('</head>');
picWindow.document.writeln('<body onload="resizewindow();">');
picWindow.document.writeln('<img src=' + pic + '>');
picWindow.document.writeln('</body> </html>');
picWindow.document.close();
}
resizewindow.js
---------------
function resizewindow()
{
// Do resizing here.
// Right now this isn't being executed
alert("resizing window");
}
Can anyone provide some pointers as to why this javascript is failing?
I'm using IE6 on Win2k and when I click on the image to open the popup
window, it does open the window but it is white with no content and the

manager.

I'm going through some "learning by doing" of javascript through trial
and error, and admittedly have a lot to learn. But in taking various
scripts and dissecting them, I still can't figure out if what I want to
do is possible, and that is this:
I'm trying to include a paragraph on my page that is randomly chosen
each time the page loads. This I can do. But in this paragraph I'm
trying to include varied text formatting (parts bold, parts different
color, etc), and make part of it a link.
If I use unformatted, un-linked text, it works fine, but that's not my
goal. When I try including html in the items from which to be selected
randomly, whether by directly specifying the attributes or using CSS
class references, nothing displays, which makes me wonder what of all
this is the problem.
I have a textfield and you of course you can select text...
When they hit the bold button I want it to obtain the selected text and
bold it, the hard part is trying to figure out if javascript can even
OBTAIN selected text?!?!
I can do this in java if I have to, I know java better than javascript,
it seems as that is the only way to do it from looking online.
In HTML I use <b>...</b> to make parts of a text bold.
<h1 class = "Style-MyText">This text is normal. <b>This text is
bold.</b></h1>
Now I'd like to do the same with a JavaScript.
I tried
HTML: <h1 id = "MyID1" class = "Style-MyText">.</h1>
javascript: document.getElementById("MyID1").firstChild.replaceData(0,
document.getElementById("MyID1").firstChild.nodeValue.length, "This text is
normal. <b>This text is bold.</b>");
Unfortunately <b>...</b> is displayed as '<b>' and '</b>' and not
interpreted to make the text bold.
'View Selection Source' shows: This text is normal. </b>This text is
bold.</b>
Is there a way to make some parts of a text bold with a JavaScript?
