This is what I want to do. I have a form, with a table and a button on each row.
When I press the button, I want a js prompt where I can enter a value.
Then I want to be redirected to a page with that value in the querystring.
This is what I have so far, but I am not redirected.
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function prompt_getvalue(tekst)
{
var value=prompt(tekst);
document.location.href = "?js=" + value;
}
// -->
</script>
for some reason, when I do this...
var email= prompt("Enter the email address you want to send the test
to:","");
it's opening the prompt window in the top left of the screen. How can I
put it in the center?
Danged if I can find the thread, but I swear I saw a $.url() reference in here a day or two ago. It was beingutilized for parsing out the window.location or window.location.search parameters. I made a mental note because that was something I would be needing to do.
Now I can't find it, either because the search isn't finding it or I was dreaming about this function existing.
I rummaged about the API docs and didn't find it there either. Is it something provided by one of the plugins and not a function native to jQuery?
I have been working with with window.promt() and i noticed a weird behaviour.In some cases (i do not known why) my prompt cannot get over a certain limit of characters. But in some other cases it can get as many characters as i want.

I need to know how to open a pop up and close the main window without
a prompt in Firefox 2 and IE 7. Anybody have any ideas on how to do
that.
I currently have this and it works in IE 6 and Firefox 1.5:
function windowClose()
{
if(navigator.appName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer")
{
this.focus();self.opener = this;self.close();
}
else
{
window.open('','_parent',''); window.close();
}
}
I am trying to open up a new window and then get the current url/location
back from the (win_1) window and display the url in an alert box.
Here is the code I am using :-
<script type="text/javascript">
var mywin_1 = open ("http://www.anysite.com/index.htm", "win_1",
"height=640, width=820, left=200, top=0, scrollbars, status, location");
var temp = mywin_1.location;
alert (temp);
</script>
Where am I going wrong?
I'm using window.showModalDialog but having an issue trying to set the parent window(main browser). I open modal window A which is then opens modal window B, top of modal window B onload I do window.opener.close()".

So my problem is modal window A the parent has been closed so window.opener.location will not work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working on an interest and investment calculator for a class project. On my list of drop down options, one of the options isnt an integer value like the rest. It's value is "other", while the other three are 1000, 5000, 1000, and 25000. What I would like to do is when the user chooses the "other amount" option from the drop down list, a prompt window will come up asking the user for an investment amount. I am having problems creating a function in my javascript file for this, and then taking the value entered and assigning a variable in another function with that new value so that it calculates with the users input. Please help. The first part of the attachment is the label with the "other" value I explained. And the second piece of code is my mess of a function that I tried to create for the prompt window to come up and store the users value and then change the value of the option.
This is in my HTML:
<label for="investment">One-Time Investment:</label>
<select name="investment" id="investment"
<optgroup label="">
<option value="1000">$1,000</option>

How can I use this script to display a page in my current directory? It woriks fine when using a domain such as yahoo.com or google.com.

<option value="2">category 2</option>
<option value="3">category 3</option>
<option value="4">category 4</option>
</select>
It works fine in IE but not in Mozilla Firefox, what do i need to chnage to
make it work correctly?
I'm working on a page that uses javascript very much. My problem is now
that i cannot redirect to another page in IE with window.location =<URL>;
This command gets executed (proofed with alert messages) but nothing
happens. FF acts like expected but i cant get it work in IE. What can be
the problem here?
here the code i use:
this.NodeSelected = function( node ) {
if ( node.Value != null && node.Value != "" ) {
window.location = node.Value;
}
}
The following JS script works fine in FF and IE7. It fails though in IE6, which happens to be my target audience. Whats failing is.. the window.location is not calling.
function confirmation(text,url_link) {
var answer = confirm(text)
if (answer){
window.location = url_link;
}
}
I use this code to create a banner that contains text:
<table of banner...
because it makes the whole banner a link. If I do it this way:
<table><tr><td ><a href='http://URL' target='_blank'>text of banner...
only the text is the link and if someone puts their cursor over a non-text area they might no realize they can click on it.
In the second example, however, I use target='_blank' to open up a new window.
My question is, is there a way to use the first method and open a new window.
What is the difference between:
location.href = "http://url/"
window.location.href = "http://url/"
and
window.location = "http://url/"
??

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a inventory control program written and I use
window.opener.location='filename.html' window.close()
It works fine in ie6 on windows 98 and XP home but sometimes for users with XP professional it crashes ie6 (wants to send a error reports to microsoft and the closes)
I was wondering if it could be that professionals "mutil" processing causing a problem by 1 process excuting before the other?
This may sound dumb but this is what I want and I am not sure how to frame it better. I see window.location.replace() creating problem with my "Back" browser button. This is because, location.replace() actually replaces the url in the history with the one currently given. So if I click on "Back" button after going to an url using window.location.replace, it goes to the previous-1 page.
Is there any measure to avoid this? Or do we have an alternative function that does the same action without replacing history?
I'm popping a window to a page with a different dns than the parent, and
i want the opener's location reloaded when this window is closed.
With Mozilla it seems that all the opener's methods and properties are
protected because the dns are different. A security exception
(permission denied) is thrown every time i try to exec an
"opener.location.reload()" from the pop up window.
An alternative would be catching the window closing from the opener, but
i don't know how this could be done.
why window.location.href or window.location javascript functions doesn't
work on mac browsing IE
as i know href is a property of location but location.href(url) works
fine with IE 6. i couldn't figure out how its possible? is it a kind of
browser syntax-tolerance helping it to work? how the heck is this
working?
I have a pop up window, that window needs to refresh the parent window when opened, I'm doing the following:
window.opener.location.href(window.opener.location .href);
problem I'm having is that the parent url has a # sign in it, like:
http://localhost/mysite/me.html#01
i need the #01 to stay in the url after the refresh, anyway to do
this? i tried using escape(window.opener.location.href) but that
didn't work, as it escaped everything including the :// in http://
i also tried:
window.opener.location.href(window.opener.location .protocol + "//" +
window.opener.location.hostname + window.opener.location.pathname);
problem with that was i lost the #01 in the url, pathname didn't
include it.
i am trying to redirect user from onchange event to another location in the page. its work fine in IE but not in firefox why window.location doesn't work in FF ?

I'm currently paying for a web service on a hosted platform. Basically, I'm unable to edit any raw content, however I am able to do things like add JS/HTML to the header or footer of a page, which will in turn be displayed on every page of this platform. My dilemma is, I only want content being showed on a single page of the platform. Specifically, I want a window.alert being displayed on the "/signup" page, but all I have to work with is JS in a global footer.Is there some way I can use window.location to achieve this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use the window.opener.location code from a link on my popup window to change the webpage in the window that opened my popup. It works on ie/firefox, but doesnt work on safari.
function changepage(id) {
window.opener.focus();
//window.opener.location('http://www.mysite.com/index.php?id='+id);
window.opener.location.pathname = 'index.php?id=' + id;
self.close();
return false;
}
Now i've tried the link with both <a href="#" changepage(35);"> and <a href="javascript:changepage(32);"> but safari doesnt want to touch the opener page. Do you know of any workaround/hack to get this to work? If not, is there a way to check to see if the user has safari and change the code to opening the page in a new window?
