Onclick Event To Call A Function In An External File And Execute It?
Jul 6, 2011
I have a few buttons on a page I'm developing and I want the onclick event to call a javascript function in an external file and execute it. I would like to be able to pass a parameter to that function and then either have the function take the user to a new URL or make changes to the webpage content.
Initially (just to test) I had inline javascript that caused an alert to popup. That worked fine. Next I took the inline code and put it in a function in an external javascript file that was referenced in the HTML:
I have a JavaScript image gallery that loads in a DIV. I have 4 different Galleries - each with their own image array stored in it's own External JavaScript file.
What I want to do, is when you click on a link to any of the 4 galleries that an onclick function calls the relevant external JavaScript file and then loads the array of images in the same DIV. I want to remain on the same page at all times...just a different array of images is seen by the user in the DIV.
Below is a sample HTML code for including a javascript file.
Code HTML4Strict:
<!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">
[code]....
When i browse this test html page on Firefox, the alert message is displayed as on the code above. But on IE, the page shows no such alert message.I assume this is a problem with the functions on the external js file not being recognised in IE.
How do you call a jquery function from an external js file and then load that function when the window loads, that is the .ready() function if I am not mistaken.
I have a small portal website with some ads around. I'm in the process of creating an ads manager script with php and mysql and would like to know when an ad was clicked. I'm confused on how to do this but, the only way I can think of is by adding an onclick even to every ad img:
HTML Code: <a onclick="callfunction('ad_id');" href="ad url"><img src="path"></a>
Now, how would I call a php function with onclick? I guess that can be done with ajax but, don't know much on how to use it?
I have a button that I wish to call a predefined function (Go()) shown below, but, I wish part of the URL that is sent to the function be inputted by the user.
function Go(URL) { window.location = URL; }
Here is the code I have for the button, but I am getting a syntax error. What do I need to do?
<input type="button" value="Duplicate" onclick="Go(CustomerMailingList-duplicate.asp?ID=<%=rs(strPrimaryKeyFieldRecordset)%>&CustNum=prompt('Enter New Cust #', '0')">
Is it possible to set an html element's (created through HTML DOM's createElement() method) 'onclick' attribute's value to a Javascript function which requires a parameter, passing a variable to it at the same time?
I have the following Javascript code:
var parentDiv = document.getElementById("subscribers"); var stubSpan = document.createElement("span"); stubSpan.id = "opentok_subscriber_" + stream.streamId; stubSpan.onclick = showStreamInFullScreenMode(stream); parentDiv.appendChild(stubSpan);
'stream' in the bolded line is a parameter variable of the function that the above code is in, and I'm trying to pass it to another function using an onclick event.
How can we execute external JS files using ajax. I tried to set evalScript as true. but for external js files this is not working. Also, is there any way to protect .js files by not allowing users to download it.
I have a external file for example abc.js ,in this abc.js file no functions ,it contains some scripting,i want to call the scripting file though html I use the code
Code: function getaccountcurncy2(){ var entity = $("#sourceacctno").val(); //alert(entity);
[Code]...
I need to execute the function getexchrate() ONLY after the ajax call is complete. All my previous attemps executes the function before the ajax call is completed. getexchrate() depends on the outcome of the ajax call.
I have a website which has a mysql db which records how many visitors i have.
I want a message box to pop up everytime a visitor logs on.
Whenever someone logs on, a php file constantly is run (via javascript) checks to see if the visitor counter has increased.
if it does it plays a "ping" sound. this works fine, but I think as the php file is separate from my index.php the message never appears.
is there a way to check in javascript that when a responsetext (ajax) changes from the current value being polled that it executes a function? (ie, the notify box)
I have a function in which I manually send an argument which is the name of the ID calling on the function For example (this is placed in a simple onmouseover event within the DIV: rw_moveToTarget("The_ID_of_This_Div") And then the function looks like this:
I need to be able to use jQuery's load function to grab the contents of an external file and append them to a particular DOM element. The problem is that when that external file includes scripts that contain calls to document.write, I get weird behavior that changes depending on which browser I'm using.If I'm using Internet Explorer, the load function gets all of the non-script elements from the external page and correctly appends them into the DOM element. Of course, this is not ideal because it ignores the scripts.If I'm using Firefox or Safari, the load function runs the scripts but the document.write output overrides the entirety of the calling page.Thus, I end up with a page that now only contains the document.write output instead of a page that includes the original HTML plus the document.write output as a child of a DOM element.
function displayTimes() { document.write("8:30-9:50<br>9:55-11:15<br>11:15-12:00<br>12:00-1:20<br>1:25-2:43"); }
It's not displaying. How do I call the function properly? I tried reading about onload but it only applies to <body> and <img> and I want it in a specific area of the page. I can put the script on the same page and then call the function later, but I want to know if it's not possible doing the above properly.
Does anybody have an idea how to call CGI on a onclick event when link is clicked. This is a sample that works in some situations but sometimes new page loading is to fast.
I'm using a script (with inner HTML), to swap currencies. My onClick event calls two scripts to change the content of two cells. It works fine in IE, but Firefox... Nothing. I've run firebug, the error returned is "illegal character".
/**** This is "myAjaxFunction.js *****/ var asyncRequest; function getContent(url){ try{ asyncRequest = new XMLHttpRequest(); asyncRequest.onreadystatechange = stateChange; asyncRequest.open('POST', url, true); asyncRequest.send(null); } .....
Trying to get my one of my divs when clicked to call a function but it doesn't seem to be working???I just noticed that only one solid pixel in the div border which i will eventually set to 0px calls the function but I want it so the whole div area calls it??
