Adding Options In Select Widget Not Working In Internet Explorer?
Apr 24, 2010
I have a javascript function which adds a label and value to a select widget in its parent window. The function is working fine in firefox and chrome without any errors or warnings. But it is not working in internet explorer.
I'm new to Javascript programming. I have designed a Javascript to carry information from one page to another. It works fine in firefox but does not work in internet explorer. Is there some coding that needs to be specified for my script to work in ie?
I'm working on a JavaScript that is enabling / disabling a select element according to whether a checkbox is selected or not. This works fine in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer (v 6.0.2900) it appears wierd:
When I disable the selevt element in IE, it continues to appear as enabled (falsely) until I try changing it.
When I click on it, updates itself as grey as to indicate that it is disabled.This is wrong. I want it to appear as grey and disabled the moment it is disabled via JS.Is this a bug in IE, or should I do this different way (code below).
Is there perhaps some way to "update" the select element so that it appears as disabled once I disable it with JS? (without having to click on it to probe if it is disabled or not) Code:
I am entering the so far very exciting world of javascript. However, I am perplexed at the following. I am setting a function to run every second with 'setInterval("runMonitor()", 1000)'. This works magically in Firefox, however works exactly one time in IE6 and then stops.
Code: function runMonitor(){ var rflag = <?php echo $jsonopt; ?>; if (rflag == "1"){ return 0; }
I was wondering why my code is perfectly working in Firefox, but does not work in Internet Explorer at all: <script language="javascript"> <!-- document.body.onload=document.body.appendChild(document.getElementById('testdiv')); --> </script> I don't get any error messages, the div is just not showing how it is supposed to show with body as parent.
I manipulate XML with jQuery with no problem in all browseres but not in Internet Explorer. I serched bug-fix and I found "metadata.js" but still not working in my Internet Explorer 7.It's just too nice to manipulate XML with jQuery...As a matter of fact... a simple example of extracting some data:Script page:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C// DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head>
[code]....
Code works perfectly in all browsers except IE (Internet Explorer - "failing forever". Good job MS )
Here's another cross-over issue between the two browsers: IE and Firefox Please, take the time to view my test website: www seemyinvestments dot com I suggest you use Firefox first, Note the first page will be the index.php for the very website itself. Please, scroll down the source code file until you see the following line: $mainframe =& JFactory::getApplication('site');
Note the word, JFactory, is underlined, and the word, getApplication, is in green. Clicking on either word will successfully invoke a AJAX function in Firefox. For example, a popup window will appear in the upper-righthand corner of the browser if you click on the green word, getApplication. (The popup has test data in it so it doesn't make any sense right now.) Clicking on the word, JFactory, will display that source code file using AJAX....quick and clean.
With Internet Explorer, this is all suddenly broken! I swear it worked as good as in Firefox, and now suddenly nothing happens. With IE, two runtime errors occur. One Syntax Error, Line 214, and the other is a 'Expected Identifer' error, Line 4114. How the heck can I track down these errors? (What's out there an IE equalvent to FireFox's Error Console??)
I have recently just built a simple website and have started to add some added editions one being the lightbox.
i am using dreamweaver cs3 and on a mac laptop, so in safari it works brillaint no problems what so ever.
but as soon as you load it in internet explorer the light box opens but it displays a 404 error on the first image of every gallery, on every different profile?[code]...
It works in Google Chrome but not Firefox and Internet Explorer. My computer has blocked Opera and I don't know how to change that. Too much energy to investigate now, I'll do so later.I'm assuming GoogleChrome is fixing a syntax error that FF and IE don't.
var request; request=false; try {
[code]....
has the problem. When I set up alerts to see what works and what doesn't, this code seems to be causing the FF and IE to not work, but I can't tell what it is that's causing them to fail.This is javascript that is suppose to check if a name has been taken by another user.
I'm working on a fairly large project that I wish to be the new formspring, (size wise) I procrastinated for 2 weeks of my 12 week break and now that I'm just getting started on it I'm running into an ishness load of problems...
internet explorer shows blank page of my website im working on the website works fine on firefox but in internet explorer all im seeing is a blank page.....here is the link of the website also in local computer its not working why???

My preview.php file which uses a watermark plugin is not loading correctly in IE 9, when I click the load button. It works well with other browsers. I have a posthttp2.php file
I've searched the web and every tutorial I can find says the same thing, and I am doing what they say, but it's inexplicably not working. Basically, I'm using a nested object to populate a select box using the new Option() method. Unfortunately, when I include the new Option line, it breaks the loop and does not add anything.
I'm trying to create/add options to select elements in a form. My form has several select elements, only first is actually populated and visible. Each select element is on a seperate table row. Depending on the option chosen in the first select list, another row (select element) becomes visible which is then populated depending on the option chosen. I accessed the select element and created the option(s) using this format
So this works just fine in FF. In IE7 I am getting this error. I can see my content load in the background, when I hit ok it takes me to a page cannot be displayed page. If I comment out:
I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with IE6's Msxml2.XMLHTTP object. I have two feed addresses in this stripped down version of my code below. Both work fine in Firefox (using the XMLHttpRequest object), but only the thinkgeek one works in IE. In the processFeed function, it shows the problem - the first alert shows 0 for the wikihow feed in IE, though it can still display the responseText. Any insight? Code:
i want to run a bit of js not in ie but in all others within some js i'm doing.is this the way to do it? (got this from o'reilly's js;definitive guide book):
Code: /*@cc_on @if( @_jscript ) ; // nothing for internet explorer[code]....
how should braces be in that, if they should at all? i mean if i wanted multiple lines of js code in the either non-ie or ie blocks how and where would {}'s go?also does that work for ie8?
my site seems to be working perfectly on firefox but when I access it on internet explorer everything loads fine but there is a yellow marker on the status bar of IE saying there are errors on the page. I copied the source into dreamweaver to check for browser specefic bugs but the only bugs that came up were that in Netscape. So any idea why this is happening? The link to my site is in my profile.
