Window.onload Should Call The Function - Does Not Work
Sep 30, 2010
When using this script on a external js, it will not run. Trying to learn js and I do not understand why it does not work, when it should. The window.onload should call the function.
The following javascript loads after the page loads. Is there a way to change this onload function and make it work as the page is loading?The javascript is meant for mousewheel scrolling for a horizontal website. The website I am using this for has a fixed width - 29000px
I have a function that needs to get the innerHTML between the body tags once the page loads. However, when I put the JS in the header and call the function using window.onload, it gives me an error. If I put the javascript in the body, it only gets the code above the <script> tag. And I am going to call a server side user control that will put the javascript on the page, so I don't even know where in the page it will go.
It only works when I use the onload attribute in the body tag. i.e <body onload="javascript:fcn_name">
I am using document.body.innerHTML to get the html within the body tags. I tried using document.body.onload and other ways of doing it. Since I am trying to integrate this function within an already existing site, I cannot go through the hundreds of pages and modify the body tags.
Is there an alternative to using the onload attribute of the body tag?
I made a function call on the form onLoad event and it is ignored in firefox. I place an alert box just b4 the fucntion and it is called correctly by the browser but it stops when it enters the fucntion. This work as it is intended in IE. How do I make a fucntion call in Firefox?
I have this thing I would call with the onLoad(); function, but that does not seem to work well with IE. It's a css-popup that I want to fire when the page loads, this is the code I use (It works well in FF but, ofcourse, not in IE):
Code: <body onLoad="popup('popUpDiv')"></body>
I've tried this workaround:
Code: <span onLoad="popup('popUpDiv')"></span> But that doesn't work.
I have the following situation. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URL]"> <html xmlns="[URL]"> <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-latest.pack.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function() { //select all the a tag with name equal to modal $('a[name=modal]').click(function(e) { //Cancel the link behavior e.preventDefault(); ..... As you can see the script works when you click the Sticky Note button. How can I convert this script into ONLOAD working without clicking the button.
How to add an onload function to an opened window? (target is "self", not window.open, just a regular link)Is it possible with onbeforeunload or something? Or add onclick to the "normal link"?I mean like this:
<script> function imgdis () { window.resizeTo(400,500); } </script> <body
However i still need to make this window to be displayed without Statusbar, Scrollbar, etc. I wanted to be stripped so it only displayes the content. Can i do this from the function that i already set?
It's pretty simple stuff that just populates an empty div with an image link to bookmark the page when users have javascript enabled. Now when I call the function using <body onload="add_favorite();"> and cancel out the window.onload=add_favorite(); from the script it works just fine (it throws a line-1 syntax error up in IE that I can't figure out, but functionally everything still works in IE7 and FF2). When I try to do it the "unobtrusive" way I get nothing at all in either browser.
A little debugging revealed that the function is indeed being called and is running successfully, however the function is somehow unable to locate the element with ID of "bookmark" when it is fired with window.onload and as a result I get no bookmarking link. It's almost like window.onload is triggering itself too soon, before the div of "bookmark" is in the page, but how can that be?
How do I pass a PHP variable into a window.onload event function? I have a URL that I need to pass to the JavaScript file that has this function in it. The JavaScript file itself is being linked from the PHP file that will pass the variable and I've seen many examples of how this is done via embedded JavaScript, but none where someone is linking to an external JavaScript file. I suppose this is probably a trivial matter to most of you, but I've never done this before and could use some guidance!
I have created and opened a child window called "checkwin" and have written some data to it. If the data is valid, I want the user to click on the 'CONFIRM' button on the child window, at which time I want the "submit()" function for the form on the parent window to be executed. If the data is invalid the user clicks on 'MODIFY' and I want focus to return to a field on the parent form. However, when I click on the "CONFIRM" or "MODIFY" buttons on the child window, nothing happens. Here is the code:
Theres this situation where i have to place a js file (say myscript.js) on a client's website to do something on their page (like create a div element with some content in it). Now, myscript.js works when window or DOM has loaded. The problem is that the client will/may also have onload functions which will be overridden by myscript.js if i place it at the end of the page or vice versa if at the top of the page.
Theres one (albeit obstrusive) way in which it can be done. Create multiple onload function (Simon Willison's script) within myscript.js and call that function from the client's webpage.But i dont want to add any inline javascript code on the webpage. Just the external js (myscript.js) file should do. Is it workable to load my script externally and not add any inline call to myscript.js as well as leave the client's javascript onload scripts unaffected?
I have a function reloaddash(1); for refresh the db.js in db.js file which sends a ajax request to the action file. In this .js itself I draw the table,td,tr for display. I dont use seperate .jsp file to draw. By onclick a link in this js file I opened a new window using window.open(URL). Now my confusion is If I close this new window I need to refresh this .js file that is i need to call the function reloaddash(1); But I dont know how to call this function on the closing of new window. Is there any option to call a function from w.indow.close or parent.opener.
I have a small window that I can call from my top menu that opens a 'radio station' to play music clips from, my site. If the user goes to a page with video/audio players on it and opens one of these tracks, I need to send a 'STOP' command to the radio window. I think the pseudo-code would look like:
Code:
if (window.open 'DashRadio') javascript:player.sendEvent('STOP'); endif
But I cannot get the code to address the 'DashRadio' window.I open it from my top menu like so:
You can see it in action at The Soundsmith, the actual radio window is this one. I would have thought this was stupid simple, but I can't get a handle to the Radio window. OTOH, I am very much a newbie in javascript, I spend a few years in FoxPro and other 3GL languages, but C-style code throws me.
I need to have a function run only once when the user scrolls. My problem is that I can't seem to figure out how to get .scroll to only check for that first scroll. I have come up with a working solution using a count, but I am hoping there is a better way to do it. I assume that it checking for a scroll constantly is just a waste of resources. My solution doesn't fix that problem, it only makes sure the function runs once.
Specifically, window.onload appears to fire before all the elements of the page have been rendered. As the difference is consistent across IE/Moz/Opera, I'm assuming it's deliberate - can anyone point me towards where this behaviour of window.onload is defined in the documentation? TIA. Code:
Is it possible to make a javascript call before "<body onload='...'>"?
What I'm doing is a preview of numerous images in an iframe and I want to resize the iframe to match each picture. Normally I'd use the 'onload' (on the src-page holding the image in the iframe) attrubute, but it's not called until the picture has finished loading. I'd like to resize the iframe before (or at the same time) the image starts loading.
I'm building an ecommerce store that will not allow me access to the <body tag... Is there any way to load the onLoad js call another way?
I tried putting a layer with a high z-index and a clear pixel stretched out in it... I've tried the call as onLoad and as mouseover... I can't get it to work. What am I missing? If you'd like to see my mess, it's here:
I am new in jQuery. Actually in my application I want open a new tabs on every link. So that is done with following code. It is working fine. I have many textfields and buttons on every tab. So I want to disable those elements on tab loading
