Strange question i know, but i am trying to read javascript ( not necessarily clever enough to program), so that i can at least understand other scripts when incorporating them on my site as i feel this is important.
Would it be ok to go straight to v1.5 or as there are differences between the versions, start at say 1.2 and learn the differences between the upgrades.
I suppose i am hoping that i only need to start at 1.5 to make things easier.
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'm experienced with PHP and I'm familiar with JS syntax but still a beginner.
Now I want to learn AJAX And JS and I've looked at jQuery but it doesn't look like JS to me, I mean I'm sure it is but it looks to me like jQuery has a syntax of it's own and I want to learn not just a framework but also the underlying language.
So now my question is; what framework will be the best choice when that is my goal?
I am student of BS Computer Science first semester. Html and Javascript are included in my first semester course. I wonder what is the best way to practice codes/scripts. Most of the time when I find code in my notes. I write it first time by seeing from notes, then second without seeing and third time without seeing but it consumes by lot of time. I use notepad.
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?
Does anyone have a quick script to find which version of IE a page is being viewed with?
Specifically, I want to seperate version 4 from versions 5+, and post a warning against using 4.
I expect I'll have to search out the (navigator.appAgent) string for the MSIE substring, but since I don't need it until tomorrow, laziness dictates I ask here before getting on with it. Is there another variable? a less cumbersome way?
Is there a possibility to compare and visualize in a user-friendly way the differences of two html files?
I need also something like a version-control. I think I could generate for everychange of the text a new record in the database. But now I need a tool (JavaScript, Java, etc.) to compare and visualize two versions of these html-files online over a web-browser. I know, this is not really a javascript topic, but perhaps here is anyone how knows a tool for that.
I've have got this script, the only thing I want to be changed is the first part. It has to detect IE version 6 instead of just "Microsoft Internet Explorer". Can somebody help me out? I tried "Microsoft Internet Explorer 6" but that doesn't work.
I noticed that some sites use <script src='fineName.js?ver=XXX'></script(even google) Someone told me that it's for script changes, means - if the file in server has been changed than the new XXX will demand to load the new file. I find it hard to believe that it's true.
I am exhausted today, not to include the funk that the BCS national championship put me in, so I must be either crazy or missing something. When I do the following the code works;
I want to know the latest available version of the browser i am using and also i want to upgrade my current browser version to the latest one when i call a javascript method.on body onload i want to change my current browser version to the latest available version of the browser.
I have just written a expanding menu which works great in IE6/NS7, what I have installed to check with, but the first person I went to show it to had IE 5.0, and guess what? It fell over.
So, I am wondering if anyone has any ideas about how I can go about checking this in IE5. I am using XP and, while i haven't tried, my understanding is that I cannot have multiple versions of IE installed, is this right? If not where can I get older versions from?
Does somebody know the code to detect the Blackberry version with javascript? If its a blackberry i need to detect the version of the OS because our mobile site only support version 4.5.0.127 and up. If the version is under that i have to redirect the user to another page to tell him that his OS version is not supported, they have to update there OS before using our mobile site.
While attempting to create a greasemonkey script in FF2 (don't ask), I discovered that the "let" statement was causing my code to fail. After confirming that this statement has been available since FF2 (js engine 1.7) [URL] became curious as one determines their javascript engine in FF. IE has a way to inspect the jscript engine, ala [URL] but I couldn't find anything similar for FF. Feel free to list links for testing engines in other browsers,
I've uploaded a new version of the javascript::Minifier module that was on CPAN. It was a translation of JSMin but I rewrote it so it now handles missing semicolons, + ++ code, and leaves those freaky IE conditional comments in the output. The goal was that if working code is input then working code is output where working == working. Breaking code that works is not such a good idea. Code:
I have bookmarklets with a # in their urls but safari changes the # to %23. And unfortunately, the bookmarklet does not work with %23. You need to change it back manually to #.
