File System Access In Mozilla

Oct 23, 2005

I'm considering writing a program in Javascript with Mozilla XULRunner.
(This would be a fully privileged XUL program, not a web page, so it
wouldn't be sandboxed.) This program requires full access to the
filesystem, which it looks like Mozilla's File class can provide.

However, my program needs to not only read these files; it also has to
read their metadata, such as their various timestamps and security
information. (I realize this stuff is platform-specific.) Does anybody
know if I can do that?

Mozilla - Access Event Object ?

Jun 15, 2011

I have a JS method register in a TD element as below:

Below is the Js Method:

The JS method works fine in IE but in mozilla throws an error that event is undefined.

I cant pass the event object from HTML while registering the method as HTML is written by someone else and I cannot change that. All I can change is the JS method.

How can i access the event object in JS method.

Opening Application - System Cannot Find File Specified

Sep 29, 2011

I have the following code below, and its giving me an error saying: "The system cannot find the file specified".
<html>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function start_ccm(){
var wsh = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell');
wsh.exec("C:Program FilesWorkDynamics TechnologiesccmApplicationsccmMercury.exe")
}

</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Button1" onclick="start_ccm()" type="button" value="START" />
</body>
</html>
There is nothing wrong with the location, but my best guess are the spaces in the file path.

JQuery :: Loading From Local File System For Offline Usage

Apr 11, 2010

I'm having an issue getting jQuery to load from a local file system. My head links are:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.3.2.min"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.scrollTo-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.localscroll-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="shadowbox-3.0.3/shadowbox.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/myscripts.js"></script>

This works fine when served from my server via http. However, I want to load this entire site (including all linked js/css files) from a local filesystem for offline usage. When I move the project to a local filesystem, the browser throws a bunch of errors from the secondary scripts (like jquery-ui) which indicate that the main jQuery lib isn't loading (ie.ReferenceError: Can't find variable: $). This behavior is consistent across IE7/FF3/Safari4Mac.

Access A Server File Using A File Name Contained In A Variable

Jul 9, 2009

Im writing client-side javascript and I want to do a server side include. There are many server files but only one will be included. These files contain peoples names and phone numbers. This info is packaged as a line of javascript but I can change that packaging if necessary.

The file name to include is being passed as a url parameter: [url]

I know how to parse the url string and stuff the ID number into a javascript variable.

I set <ICODE> foo = "/people/12345.html" </ICODE> and tried <ICODE><!--#include virtual="${foo}" --> </ICODE>
but this did not work.

Is there a way to do this with javascript given that the name of the file I wish to include is contained in a variable? If not, what is the usual way of getting the data in the server file into my client-side javascript?

Unable To Access The CSS File?

Mar 18, 2010

my browser is not able to access the javascript of css file from the location. Its saying What might be the reasons

<p>
The requested URL was not found on this server.
If you entered the URL manually please check your
spelling and try again.
</p>

I dont understand y.

1> The files are correct and in the location . The alphabets are also of correct case, since its a linux system.

2> I tried to reload the page using shift + contrl + R

3> tried to clear the cache from the browser.

Only doubt i have is that , the path is a relative path. samething like -script=>{-language=>'JAVASCRIPT',-src=>'../pickdate.js'}

Reading XML File - How To Access Tags

Aug 2, 2010

I have a large project under development. The code below distills the problem I am having. In essence, I am trying to read in an XML file. It appears to load okay but when I try to count how many there are of a certain tag (The "Team" tag) I am told that there are zero. This is despite being told that that file loads okay (as the callback function is called).

Javascript and the xml file is below. I hope that it is easy to follow. When the page is loaded, the initialize function is called. I first check my browser as I only need this to work on a Mozilla browser (I am using Mozilla Firefox 3.6.3). I then load the xml file and the callback function (fileLoaded) is called. I then try to find out how many "Team" tags I have, but get the message that there are zero.

= javascript =
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"[URL]">
<html xmlns="[URL]" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Global variable so that everything can access it
var xlmDoc; .....

= xml file =
<Root>
<Team>
<Type>GLF</Type>
<Name>Verulam</Name>
<Postcode>AL1 1JG</Postcode>
<Page>693</Page>
</Team> .....

I am trying to upload multiple files using file input. And I am able to do that using "multiple" attribute of input type file. I can not use file API as I am using python on server side. So after user has selected the files, I want to access those file names in file input to let user cancel any file before uploading and upload rest of the files. The "value" attribute of input file does not work as it doesn't let me write.

When The Images Rotate In Mozilla In Between The Rotations, Mozilla Browser Adds A Little Colored Square That Represents A Blank Image?

Jul 16, 2009

had this in browsers areas but people told me I should put it here in Javascript because more people here would probably have seen it before and know why it happens. I have basic Javascript that rotates images. I've noticed any kind of Javascript code that rotates images has this same problem only in Mozilla. When the images rotate in Mozilla in between the rotations, Mozilla browser adds a little colored square that represents a blank image that are able to be seen does anyone know why Mozilla Browser adds that? For example when looking at this page in Mozilla can see it. if you know if this is some Mozilla problem with Javascript and images. Doesn't happen with IE and other browsers shows the images only and nothing else.

Access Denied When Submitting File Upload

Jul 23, 2005

I have a form with an input type='file' element. I click on the Browse
button of my file upload element, select a file, and hit open. The
file name appears in the textbox portion of the file upload element (as
expected). When I submit this form everything works perfectly.

On the same form I have a hyperlink that simulates clicking on the
Browse button of the file upload element. It does this by using the
file upload element's name and the click() method. I click on the
hyperlink and the file dialog box opens as if I had clicked the Browse
button. I select a file and hit open. The file name appears in the
textbox portion of the file upload element - just like it should. BUT
... when I try to submit this form I get a javascript error that says
"Access is Denied". The error is not on the next page, it's on this
page - that is, the form never actually gets submitted and processed.
There can be no doubt that this is a client-side error.

I've seen a lot of posts about this from a couple years ago but no
solutions. Does anyone have any ideas? It's really important that I
can launch the file open dialog box from a hyperlink.

Getting Firefox 1.5 To Show .pgn-file In Frame And Then Access It's Text?

Mar 29, 2009

A pgn-file is a plain text file. It's used for chessgames.I want Firefox 1.5.0.12 on Win XP SP2 to show the pgn-file in a frame when I click on the link.That's the first problem: Since I installed some years ago some chessprogram Firefox always asks what to do with a .pgn-file (Download dialog).I know I can change this behaviour either in config:about or in some configuration file for mime types.But how to do that??? (There are extensions for that, but only for Firefox 2 and higher. ): And I would prefer to change it via the about:config-file or in the mime-configuration file, some .rdf-file I think.Then I want to access the plain text in that frame with javascript. How could I do that?(If you need a pgn-file to test, just take any text-file and rename the ending to .pgn.)
