Is it possible to turn on/off the scroll, caps, and num locks on a user's
computer using javascript? It's somewhat hard to explain what I need this
for, but if there is a way for this to be done, please let me know...
I somehow managed to create a script that locks up Mozilla (1.3)
tight. Here's the culprit, perhaps y'all can provide some insight
into what the trouble is. (This script was cobbled together from
several different word-count routines I found on the web, none of
which worked correctly in all cases.)
function trim(data)
{
i=0;
while (/s/.test(data.charAt(i)))
{data=data.substring(i,data.length);}
i=data.length;
while (/s/.test(data.charAt(i))) {data=data.substring(1,i);}
return data;
}
function countWords()
{
input=document.forms[0].elements[0].value;
input=trim(input);
wordList=input.split(/s+/g);
output=wordList.length;
return output;
}
activated via a button: onClick="alert(countWords())"
My prob is that the huge amount of data (15MB of XML) that is loaded by an AJAX call, literally locks the browser while loading it into the DOM. Does any of you know if there is a way to prevent that. Btw - As you see I use jQuery and the ajaxManager plugin.
[Code]...
so i've seen javascript examples and some of the word uses
getElementById (i tried removing the caps and it won't work)
window.onload(work) and window.onload (won't work)
So how do i know when to use the caps as a first letter? And what is the name of this naming convention?
I want to put an additional check for user while entering password whether CapsLock is On or not..
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a function that onkeydown(), forces all letters to be capitalized after a comma (",") in a text input field.
I know that I can make all of the letters capital using this function:
function makeUppercase(field) {
field.value = field.value.toUpperCase();
}
But am not sure how to say to do this function only after a comma is present.
I was wondering if the was any way to determine the state of the caps
lock key, on or off. Of course I can capture the key events and see whether the caps lock is pressed, but that does not help.
I have seen some example that looks at the characters entered in an
input field to determine if the caps lock is on, but I was wondering if
something is possible that is a bit more immediate to report the caps
lock state.
I am using one script which is functioning properly incase of IE but incase of Mozilla evenif the shift key is pressed and any character key is pressed then it is displaying Caps Lock is On. how can I make it Mozilla and IE compatible.

I am building a web page.and have a simple javascript menu... I call
the javascript menu within a div block that my print sytlesheet has
set as a display: none;, well all the content in that block doesn't
show up, EXCEPT the javascript is still getting run Code:
Hello...I assume this should be relatively simple but can't seem to figure it out and have searched all over the net.I have an .asp page that contains a form with multiple checkboxes for users to register for classes. When the classes fill up I want to be able to not allow them to register.
Right now I am doing the following:
function regclosed()
{
alert("Registration for this class has closed." + '
' + '
' + "Please select another class.");
this.checked=false;
}
Then for each checkbox I am using onclick = "regclosed()" The problem that I am having is that even though I only put the 'onclick' for certain checkboxes...as soon as I click a checkbox that has the regclosed() it clears every box that was checked - not just the one that has onclick="regclosed()"
This is very stupid but I cannot make it work. I'm trying to turn the following:
$.post("search.php", { clientID: thisChannel.tblClient_id, channelID: thisChannel.tblChannel_Id, wordsToSearch: wordsSearchedfor }, function(data){
alert("data: " + data);
});

The first passes the variables with no problem, but I get an error with the ajax function, it is not passing the variables.
I have some jquery code:
var data = $("#mySortable tbody tr:eq(" + editpos + ")").find('input').serialize();
Now data will spit out something like name=John&surname=Doe
What I want to convert data to is:

Let's say I have a form and I want to check that form to see if all the fields are filled out...could I do this?
Or would I have to actually declare the full form name each time?
I have a string that can have one or more urls within the string. I'm wanting to use javascript to find the urls and turn them into links.
i know you'd do a search with a regular expression, but i can't find the correct one on the web...even though i know there has to be a billion examples out there. my google search skills are s#&@ today. code...
I need to turn xmlhttp.responseText into a column of links that will be displayed in a popup div.I've defined xmlhttp.responseText as var named txt with: var txt=xmlhttp.responseText;
That produces a var with comma delimited values. I'd like to proceed by passing txt through a For Loop that will create the links, but I can't find a method that will count commas.
How do I return the number of commas in javascript?
I'm working on a web app where a profile is displayed to a user. The profile consists of data pulled from FB and LinkedIn via their respective API's. I'd like to provide the user with the ability to add more detail to the profile. I've scoured the web looking for a way to use Javascript to change an HTML element from a link to a form field but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for.
For example...
Profile:
Education: College Add Major
And when the user clicks the "Add Major" link, it turns into a form field. I'm not much of a front end developer but I'm working alone on this project so I have to wear a few hats.
I am having a problem trying find out how to turn a number of seconds into a 00:00 format to do a countdown, and when it reaches 0:00 to redirect the window...
here is what I have figured out:
Code:
var tID = 0;
var startTime = null;
var timeout = 5*(60*1000);
[Code]....
Also, if they click the Button that says, "I'm still here" to ping the server to keep them on the page working without logging them out, will that code cause a javascript error because now the tooltip popup window that has the timeCountDown will no longer be open, so how would them clicking the ping server button stop that from causing an error when it goes to update timeCountDown?
Does anybody know how to turn off form actions please?
I have 2 types of users (members and non-members) using the same form action. This form has 4 buttons in total.
If the user is a member they have full access to all buttons.
If the user is a non-member they can only use 2 of the 4 buttons.
So, at the moment, when they are non-members and click on one of the members buttons, an OnClick event handler is added to the input type = "submit", which generates a new window with a document explaining to the user that they need to register.
There is no problem generating this window.
The problem is that the form specified in the form action still executes and the members page is still displayed.
So is it possible to turn off the form action in this instance so that the main page isn't refreshed/executed, or do I have to create different form actions for different users.
Surely there must be a way to prevent the form action from being triggered?
I realise I could simply not display the button for non-members, but I'd prefer to do so, as it allows them to see the features that members receive.
I am using the ajax method in JQuery to return an XML response from a URL location. The method looks like the following:
$.ajax({
url: '../DSMO/lb.asmx/GetAvailableDocListAuth',
cache: false,
type: 'POST',
[Code].....
OK so if I use repsonseText responseXML or just try and traverse msg it will not work. The problem is the body of my XML response, all of the tags ('<' and '>') are getting escaped to html entities ('<' and '>') So it becomes a malformed XML document that is not readable. I even tried using the Javascript function replace to go through and replace with no luck.
Even stranger if I access the web service through the browser, the XML is just fine!
The server is Windows Server 2008 running IIS 7 and I am programming of course in HTML and newest version of JQuery.
The browser I am testing on is Firefox with FireBug.
I have an input field for the users name and I have one for their password. Now when they come onto the page I want to have the value for the username filed say "username" and the passwordfield should say "password". Then when the users focusses on the password input the input type should turn password so when they type their password it shows like "*******".

When I make a change to a script in the file in the 1st script tag, I have to turn the browser off and then back on to see the change-reloading the page isn't enough.
How can I make it so I see the changes by reloading the page and not turning the browser off and back on?
