Im new to ajax and javascript (I have knowledge of ActionScipt, css, html, xml and php) so I wanna buy a good book for beginers. Do you know some title? I saw at amazon: Ajax in Action, Professional Ajax (Programmer to Programmer) and Foundations of Ajax (Foundation).
The only book currently endorsed by c.l.j. regulars is: javascript: The Definitive Guide, 4th Edition By David Flanagan ISBN:0-596-00048-0 (Also by David Flanagan: JavaScript Pocket Reference, 2nd Edition. ISBN 0-596-00411-7 for language and API reference alone).
I recently launched a question answer site that connects people with problems to those with solutions. We let people with problems pay solution providers $0.25 for problems in over 100 categories.
As part of our service we let people review past problems and also provide resources for their own research.
Can anyone tell me (in their opinion)?
What are the best three sites for javascript information? What are the best three javascript books they own?
At present I am reading Javascript for Dummies, no-one tut please! Can anyone suggest a good beginners book for javascript that is easy to understand but allows progression from nothing to competent (graphics welcome); which includes everything.
I wanna get some deep information about how browser implements the dispatch mechanism of events , native setTimeout and setInterval. Any books or articles reference it?
I would like to embed the search results of the Google books search into my website. It should be like Google News elements widget supplied by google itself. I need to have results and not the custom search box.
I have a background that is a shelf full of books, I wanted to figure out what I would need to do in order to make a random number of books pop out on mouse over (individually), and upon click have the book pulled out and be flipped through and read like a book. Would I have to recreate the library picture completely to make the random books moveable? And would I have to create the books that I want to move from the bookshelf?
how to pull the book out from the book shelf so that it looks like it's coming towards me and then to make it look like it has been pulled out. Would I need to use animation for this? What would be the parts to the animation required?
A little background on my knowledge of javascript: I understand the concepts of it and can understand it when I read it or its explained to me. I am looking to create something as simple as I can, I thought having a background and something basic like a few books be able to pop out. When I realized css couldn't do this and css3 wasn't supported by most browsers I turned to javascript and have been trying to figure out the steps I would need to do to do this specifically.
I have a program in which a user must enter number of books and price and then calculate the total cost of the items, i have tried and tried to get it working to no effect can anyone see where i have went wrong.
within this page that has been created, there is an AJAX tree folder which calls another page to be loaded into a DIV by AJAX again. Code:
[Code]...
I don't know why it doesn't work because the page has been loaded with the JS file, but as soon as the link is added afterwards it doesn't work. I take it this is because it doesn't know where to find the JS, but how can I overcome this?
jquery provides ajaxStart() and ajaxStop() events. Those two events do not seem to be triggered if the ajax requests are made by Microsoft Ajax tool Kit (from ASP.Net code). Is there any way to bridge those two event models? If not currently possible, is there any future initiative or plan out there to make this happen?
i was using $.ajax method to get my ajax page on my main page,which is working great.But now if i have links in that ajax page then i can't open them in that same div,the links are opening in new window,but i want to open in same part,i tried google it and then found, i have to use iframe instead of div.how to do with only use jquery and div.
i have a series of <select> fields. The first one, via ajax(), generates a 2nd one, based on the first ones' data with the .change() method. there is then a 3rd <select> - who's data will depend on choice of the second one although step 1 works, and i can generate the 2nd one, i still can't generate the 3rd one.
when i test the script on its own, both the 2nd and 3rd <select> fields are fine - but not via the ajax, which leads me to believe that the .change() from the 2nd one, isnt triggering the ajax call - its not being picked up (even the 'hello' alert isnt working).
Am calling Webservice in one ajax post, In the success funtion am calling another another method in same webservice through another ajax post method. First ajax post is getting called and returning the string from the webservice method but the inner ajax call is not getting called. I have placed the code here.
Am trying to set up a very simple AJAX script for my website. The javascript i have in an external file which reads as below.
This works perfectly in firefox but IE doesn't display anything at all. No error messages, just a blank IE window. If you look at the IE source this html is all there it just won't show it! Code:
I was playing a little bit with a lot of ajax frameworks. I have even wrote one small by myself. But one thing still drives me crazy: Whenever I'm doing an ajax call I need to specify handler to handle data coming from a server script. That means that almost for every action I need two functions.
Since I'm still new to all of this I'd like to ask how can i achieve something like this:
function function_name(el) { var i_need_this = get_what_i_need(el.id); return _i_need_this; }
where get_what_i_need function is returning some information using ajax from a server.
I've noticed a strange behavior with Ajax in internet explorer. In my page I've four links, that call four different pages by using XMLHttpMethod. By entering for the first time in the page and selecting the various links, all work correctly (the 4 pages are called and displayed into the page), but if I click again on a link previously clicked, trying to repeat the call, the responseText won't to appear!
I'm new in javascript and ajax and I need a IDE to write and debug my codes and I want it to be something like phpdesigner or dreamwawer that have snipper and suggest me when I write some of the code.
In particular, there is a pretty nifty little box effect that seems to be popping up all over the place these days. It would work perfectly for a project I am working on, but I have no idea how to go about doing it.
I found a joomla template over here that has just what I want. I don't use Joomla, I'm a wordpress boy, and I also don't really want to dig in there and rip it out. Could someone look at the template and possibly point me in a direction on finding something similar to that? Possibly something easy? Code:
