Keeping The Location Of A 'drag-able' Box Between Page Loads
Jan 23, 2007
I am trying to make a floating "drag-able" navigation box that will seem not to reload between pages. I hope this make sense
The navigation is in a floating box that can be dragged as well as collapsed. And when you go from page to page the box will remain in the same location and in the same state (open or collapsed) ultimately creating the illusion that the nav box doesn't reload. Can this be done with JS? If so is the way to maintain the location with cookies or is there another way?
I have a webpage(with a text field and a button) which prompts for a local file and attempts to load the file in the window if the user clicks on the button. The javascript code onClick event uses the location.href property to achieve the desired result. (This loaded page has some additional functionality which lets them upload the contents to the server.)
This approach only seem to work for some computers and on others it is loading a blank page. I have alerts in the code to show that location.href is correctly reflecting the file location after the assignment. When it is loading the blank page I see the message "Opening page about:blank" on the status bar. Iam currently using IE6 sp1 on Win2k. This issue is not just limited to this combination. We are experiencing issues with IE5.5, WinXP as well.
The code works if I pass a web site address. It only fails if I attempt to pass a file name(c: est.htm)
Any thoughts on why the blank page is being loaded or how can I go about resolving this issue.
It seems like when I load javascript code into a page, that each item I add, such as an accordian vertical navbar, image slider, etc, that each time I add one, the page loads a second or so slower with each one added. I would like some of these features, but is this just a part of life, or are there tricks to avoid the slower load time? It is not major time but after the 2 items I mentioned, it added on about 2 seconds.
I read that $(document).ready(function() might slow me down but I do not see that statement in any of my .js files.
Below is my script. This will let me click and drag an item on my site. I need the image to not only do this, but also snap to a specific location. There will be approx. 30 items that will be snapping to the same location.
At the link below I've built the nav using CSS (see code below). How do I make the 'on' state stay active on each specific page? (i.e the 'about us' rollover image stays active on the 'about us' page)
I would like the page to not refresh and jump to the top of the page after they submit there answer. So on questions that use radio buttons I have been using
for the submit buttion and that works perfect. I try and use it on questions that use checkboxes and it doesnt work so as a work around I am using the form's action attribute to set it to a link on the page. Here is my form code:
<form name="question2" action="#q2">2. <strong>Multiple choice:</strong><a name="q2"></a> Which patient or patients could be transferred to another hospital under the EMTALA Act?<br /> <input type="checkbox" value="a" name="aquestion" />Smith, Bill<br /><input[code]....
I posted a similar thread about this in the .NET forum, but I thought maybe there was a javascript way of doing what I need to do.Is there a way to redirect a user to another page while keeping the passed in #parameter?For example, if the user clicks the link:
I have an webbpage, and in the middle of it there is an iframe to a php site. So i have used this code, so after some seconds the iframe will send the guest to another page. <meta http-equiv="refresh" traget="_top" content="5 url=http://mypage.com"/> But the thing is that i want the WHOLE page to reload, and go to that page after 5 seconds (we can say). With that code, only the iframe are going to another page. Is it possible to make the whole page send the user after some seconds, to another page and not only the iframe?
Basically, I have a link that should open the targeted link in a blank page, and upon the link being clicked, the original page's URL should be changed. The reason for this is that the user has to browse information on another website, and then pass the information on to me via a contact form, so rather than make them click back on my tab in the browser, and then find the "Contact" page link to fill in the form, I thought it would a good feature to simply go ahead and load the "Contact" page upon them clicking the link to the external page (which of course loads in a new tab). Here is the code I have in place:
This all works fine on my computer, regardless of the browser that I use. One of my partners on this project called me this morning and said that the link was taking him directly to the "Contact" page without opening the "Other Site." This is strange because after I put this in place, I showed it to him and it worked fine. Now, a few days later, and it does not work. He said that he cleared his browser cache, history, cookies, etc. and the problem did not go away. He uses IE8. After he told me it was no longer working, I went to test it myself, and it works fine for me no matter which browser I use (IE8 or 9, Firefox 3 or 4 Beta).
why this might have worked one day and not the next? Is it simply a problem on his computer, or could it be an issue where based on what type of browser you are using, this won't work. Also, I know this is the JavaScript forum, but is there a way to do this in PHP without using the JavaScript onclick event? Obviously, I can't use the header() function since this functionality needs to be present on a link within text of a page.
I have a floating div which I drag all over the page. If the page has scrollbars and users drag the floating div to the very top, page scrolls up too. The problem occurs at this moment. As page scrolls up, the div gets detached from the mouse while dragging.
How can I keep the floating div to always stay attached to the mouse during a dragging process and scrolling the page? Code:
I have some code which toggles the content on the page. This works fine but I need the first div to be showing when the page loads and its tab to have a selected state.
i have a javascript bookmark to log me onto my schools site[URL].. it works fine if the page is already open, but with using the link to open the page, it runs the remaning script before the page loads and it doesn't work. is there any way to fix this withou using setTimeout()
I have a slide show program. First theres stuff to set up the array, and the time between slides Then a function startIt()is defined then a function stopIt() Then two buttons, Start and Stop, which when pressed call the relevant functions.
When the page loads, you have to click the Start button to get the slide show running, but I'd like it to start running straight away without having to click. I can't for the life of me figure this out. I thought it was just a question of putting the line startIt(); Code:
To begin, I'm a novice at this. I'm using 2 JQuerys on a page -
[Code]...
The first fades a page in and out when loading. The second 'smoothly' scrolls the page down to anchor text in the page. The problem is that the 1st script 'overpowers' the second, so when you click on an anchor text link it starts to 'smoothly scroll down, then the first script kicks in an re-loads the page. Is there a way of stopping the first script if the second one is being used?
Say now, you want to try and do some animation done by default, in the below example I have done some animation only when the user do mouse over, how can i do that by default as in when the page loads.
I have a hotspot on an image that when the user moves their mouse over it makes some text appear from 0% to 100% opacity.
This function works fine, but when the page loads for the first time the text is already displayed. So Im wondering how to set the initial opacity of the text to 0% so its hidden until activated?
Heres the code I have at the moment (relevent parts in orange):
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head>

I guessed by adding "sampletext2=hide" to the top but this did no good!
I have a text box to which I give focus when a page loads. There is more than one submit button on the form. When I enter something in the textbox then hit Enter the first submit button on the form is activated. Is there some simple code I can use to shift focus to the submit button I want as I press Enter?
i am working on a facebook like photo viewer. I have used javascript to declare an array of about 200 images. I have the following approach to pre-load the images.I preload all the images when the page loads:
The problem is the page tries to load all the images when opened. And when the user clicks "next" to view other photos, the other photo is still loading where as some are already loaded.I would like the code to be able to load the photo that the user is currently viewing as the user gets to that picture, before the page tries to finish loading all the photos.In other words, if the user wants to view a particular photo directly, that photo should get the priority of loading quickly.
