i've a simple script that basically replaces the textnode attached to the title tag. and i thought since i'm updating the title tag the window title will automatically change. unfortunately it does not :(. what is wrong ?
function getText(txtMsg) {
if ( document.createTextNode ) {
return document.createTextNode(textMsg);
}
return false;
}
function setTitle(newTitle) {
var title = document.getElementsByTagName("title");
if ( title[0] ) {
title[0].replaceChild(getText(newTitle), title[0].firstChild);
}}
i know for sure this can be done coz gmail does that...but still wondering how else ??
btw i checked if this was getting updated to to DOM properly and it did that too
I need to open a new window from an existing HTML page to a site in which we do not want to show the address for. I have set the titlebar to no but it will still place the title on the titlebar Here's my function code:
function myOpen() { window.open("http:// www.somewhere.com","mywindow","location=no,titlebar=no"); }
I'm trying to set up a new window that contains a button. Then, if the user clicks the button, the window would display new information accordingly. I have written a simple test that won't seem to work:
<html> <head> <script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript"> var count = 0; function Window() {
I'm trying to alter the contents of a drop-down (select) list on the parent window from a child window in IE 6. After opening the child window, I set its opener to reference the parent like this:
childwin = window.open(...) if (childwin == null) childwin.opener = self;
Then, to update the parent select list from the child window, I do this:
opener.document.myForm.NameOfSelect.options.length = 0; opener.document.myForm.NameOfSelect.options[0] = new Option("", ""); for (var ixy = 1; ixy <= newDataArray.length; ixy++) { opener.document.myForm.NameOfSelect.options[ixy] = new Option(someNewDisplayText, newValue); }
This looks correct and works up to a point. I can empty the parent select by setting the its options.length to zero. But, when I try to add new options, IE gives me a "server threw an exception" message. Is all this even possible in IE?
i am bringing up a pop-up using window.open("popupurl","popupname",details);
now when i use this both in IE and FF, the title of the pop up includes my ip address as http://1.1.1.1:8080 - Popup title - Microsoft Internet Explorer.
so my question is how can i hide my host information showing up....
I am created a site where personal messages will be sent to other members. To do this I want to allow users to either type in the users seperating their name by ; (ie Joe Bloggs; Michael Jackson; Fred Flintstone). or alternativly have a popup box where all the names on the database are displayed in a list with a check box next to the names. I will be using PHP to interact with the database and know about this
My problem is getting details from the popup box and displaying them in the text field on the main browsers form? So if in the popup box the user checked Michael Jackson's name how would I get Michael Jackson to dispaly in the main browers field (input name ="to")?
Im using the code below to pop up a window: It works fine except for that in the titlebar, my domain name is listed before the page title like below:
http://mydomain.com - MyPopupwindowname - Microsoft Internet Explorer
Is there any way to remove this or otherwise control what is displayed in the titlebar? I just want it to display the page title - thats it. I dont really care about the MSIE but I mainly dont want the domain to display.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- Begin function popUp(URL) { day = new Date(); id = day.getTime(); eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=1,width=520,height=500,left = 245,top = 262');"); } // End --> </script>
I've got a link that launches a little AJAX application in a window.
Like this:
function launchListener() { var newWindow = window.open("listener.php", "newWindow", "width=300,height=150"); }
Ideally, once this window is loaded, it will sit in the background and wait for stuff to happen. I would like to then change the title bar to denote changes. Simple enough, right?
Anyway, problem is: When the new window launches, its title is not exactly what I assign it in "listener.php" (for instance, "Listener"), but rather "http://155.55.55.55 - Listener" (or whatever). This means that while sitting the taskbar, generally all the user is going to see is a domain name and some dots, rather than what I want them to see.
how to rename/hide the title in the popup window. I found the below code from google. this code is working fine. Actualy I don't want to show the url to the user. Below code helps to hide the address bar. But still user can see the url in title bar. If I add the titlebar=no in the var feature then also it is showing the url in titlebar.
function loadMainWindow() { var win = window.self; win.opener = window.self;
Is it possible to create a link to have a window pop up and not have the bar that has the title and minimize/maximize/close icons? If so, how could I do this?
I have some JavaScript that is being used to open a new window and display a PDF file. This is working fine apart from the title of the new window being open. I am using the window.open function and I have set the title of the page using the document.write function (see code below). The code works fine for FF and IE but for some reason Google Chrome just displays 'Untitled - Google Chrome'
<body> <a href="javascript:openNewWindow();">Click Here</a> <script type="text/javascript"> function openNewWindow()
[Code]....
Note: I have also tried adding - pdfWindow.document.title="Title"; - to the JavaScript, with no luck.
Is there anything specific that is required for Chrome or am I just missing something??
cannot get a new (picture) window to open in Firefox without the title and address bars (or anything else, just the image). IE shows just the title bar, with or without the code:
function newWindow() {window.open('./pageaddress.html','winname','top=20,left=20,directories=0,titlebar=0,toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=400,height=350');} </script>
The window opens fine, but always shows the address and title bars. I have read the W3 Schools options list (and other posts) and tried both 'no' and '0' as values, without any success. What am I missing and is there any way to make this work - it didn't even work in the W3 Schools 'try it yourself' test page!
I have seen some very nice 'slowly-opening' windows (increasing in size)
This page: [URL] seems to indicate that it's possible, but it looks like it also pops up an alert window which would be annoying as hell. Is there a way to, say, once every minute change the title bar text?
You see I have a text file of rotating slogans that appear each time you reload a page on my site and someone suggested that having them change even when the page is already open might be fun. I thought I'd look into it and see if it's possible. The site is [URL]
I don't know enough about javascript to know if this is possible. I am fairly good at implementing and installing other people's code, though, and can usually make minor changes to tweak things.
so the story is that i using and IFRAME in my web site , and i want the main title of the document (which appears in the browser title bar) to be the title from the iframe 'page' . my English is not so good so i 'll give an example .
I am looking to use a similar method as facebook chat does, where it alternates between the original title text and 'friendsName has sent you a message!...'
At my day job, we use a cms that generates really terrible <title></title> tags that are killing our SE rankings.
Instead of taking the title of the piece of content and putting it in the title tags, it uses the name of the page template.
I first attempted this with jquery, but i'm looking for something that will basically just take <title>template name</title> and replace it with something friendlier.
I was wondering if anybody could help me out a little. My goal is to update some information about a system every 2-5 seconds. The information needs to be displayed in some sort of table, but the size of the table needs to be able to shrink and grow. The main problem here is updating the table without refreshing the entire page and making any clicking noises. I was thinking maybe I can put the table in an iframe and use javascript somehow to update the iframe whenever neccesary.
I have <div id ="changeable"> with some html in it. I have a link that calls the function to replace the info in the div. The problem is that the "creative_development.inc" file is added to the top of the div and does not replace the content. How do I replace the content, and not just add content?
I'm creating a simple auto updating script based on PHP and using jQuery to set the interval to 1000 miliseconds. It works in FireFox, as the only one I've tested so far, but in Internet Explorer (Version 7 right now, didn't test others) it just freezes and doesn't auto update. Doesn't auto update either if I refresh the page, so something's messed up here.I'm using the same way of auto updating on other things, such as a chat-page - works on those in all browsers, so I'm kinda on a lost track here.
Here's the JavaScript/jQuery: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
I've not done much in the way of JS, if really anything other than using javascript.com before, so this may be me bieng quite m00bish, but I am having problems with my script on a page.
In a nutshell, the script I have currently allows my viewers to make a selection from a drop-down list, and as a result, the embedded WMP object below starts streaming the selected video.
WMP gets the video name from the VALUE= element of each list item.
My aim is that as well as the page starting the selected video, that a paragraph of text will appear under the WMP object based on the selection showing information regarding that video.
I've tried playing with a VAR element, and then using document.write to print the variable name to the screen, but this only writes the value of the variable at the time of page loading, and does not refresh.
What I am trying to do is assign a value to unchecked checkboxes. To do this I am running a function upon the submission of a form that checks the boxes for a value, and if they are not checked, assigns a value to them. I though I had it working, but for some reason I am getting a syntax error with the line that contains the "else"
My code is as below. The form name is deleterows and the form is dynamic so there can be any number of checkboxes (hence the for loop). Code:
