HTML - Hiding An Input Button In Firefox By Giving It Zero Width
For complicated reasons having to do with getting some Javascript to submit a form properly, which I won't get into here, I need to create
a "do nothing" input button, whose mere presence lets the Javascript function work. Since this button does not do anything when you press it, I want it to be invisible. In IE I can get it to be invisible just by setting its width to zero using the line below. However, Firefox insists on giving it some finite width, even if there is no label on it (see below). How do I create a zero width button in Firefox - and is there any other way to hide input buttons? <input type="submit" name="control" value=" " style="width: 0px" title="No function" /> Similar TutorialsHi All, I have a tool Tip which will be shown when a user hovers over a mouse but for some reason the information i have entered gets hidden behind the below button, See the attached Picture, ignour the white lines there not actually on the button something went wrong when i done a screen print Heres the HTML and CSS HTML HTML Code: <div class="MainPageContainer"> <a href="RaiseTaskOperations.aspx" style="margin-right: 15px;" class="MainPageButton"> Ops Support<span class="tooltip">For Raising<br /> Computer Issues<br /> Software Issues<br /> Account Issues<br /> Telephone Issues<br /> Email Issues<br /> </span></a><a href="RaiseTaskSupport.aspx" class="MainPageButton">Support<span class="tooltip">For Raising<br /> Stuck in batch<br /> Locked in a screen<br /> </span></a> <div class="SmallSpace"> </div> <a href="RaiseTaskFix.aspx" style="margin-right: 15px;" class="MainPageButton">Fix<span class="tooltip">For Raising<br /> Rating Error<br /> Data not mapping correctly<br /> </span></a><a href="RaiseTaskChange.aspx" class="MainPageButton">Change<span class="tooltip">For Raising<br /> New field required<br /> New report required<br /> Amend how we store this data<br /> </span></a> </div> CSS HTML Code: .MainPageButton { filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(startColorstr='#d4003d', endColorstr='#990034'); -moz-box-shadow:inset 0px 1px 16px 0px #ffffff; -webkit-box-shadow:inset 0px 1px 16px 0px #ffffff; background:-webkit-gradient( linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0.05, #8f002b), color-stop(1, #b20939) ); background:-moz-linear-gradient( center top, #8f002b 5%, #b20939 100% ); background-color:#8f002b; -moz-border-radius:19px; -webkit-border-radius:19px; border:2px solid #dcdcdc; display:inline-block; width:130px; text-align: center; color: White; font-family:arial; font-size:21px; font-weight:bold; padding:17px 48px; text-decoration:none; position:relative; } .MainPageButton:hover span { display:block; } .MainPageButton span { display:none; position:absolute; top:10px; left:40px; width:150px; border:1px solid black; background-color:#f7f5ea; -moz-border-radius:10px; -webkit-border-radius:10px; font-size: 13px; color:Gray; } .MainPageButton:hover { background:-webkit-gradient( linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0.05, #b20939), color-stop(1, #8f002b) ); background:-moz-linear-gradient( center top, #b20939 5%, #8f002b 100% ); background-color:#b20939; } .MainPageButton:active { position:relative; } This tool tip will vary in size as time goes on so can some one help me resolve this so i wont have to worry about it later on down the line. Hi, I have got an input form to upload files; the form also accepts some other user input. The upload works fine, but I need to display some filenames by default, but this does not work. I tried using: <input type="file" name="images[]" value="<?php echo $default_filename; ?>"... This did not work, so I tried: <input type="file" name="images[]" value="Testfile.jpg"..., but this does not work too. All this is in a <form action="<?php echo $_PHP_SELF; ?>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">. It seems to me that in an input field of type "file", default values are not accepted, though they should be according to the documentation. Any help will be greatly appreciated as I need this feature.

Please help me. if you want i can give you my website files. thank you very much hi all if i click a button the other html page should be opened in particular frameset. ex: Code: <html> <frameset border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" rows="*,20%" > <frameset border="0" frameborder="0" framespacing="0" rows="20%,*" > <frame noresize scrolling="no" src="view_options.htm" name="showframe2"> <frame noresize="noresize" src="GNOME-Curves.png" align="middle" width="100" height="200" > </frameset> <frame noresize="noresize" src="main_button.htm" > </frameset> </html> Code: <html> <body> <script type="text/JavaScript"> function confirmation() { window.location = "frame.html"; } </script> <!--<form name="input" action="frame.html" METHOD=GET onSubmit="document.myform.target = 'showframe2'"> <input type="submit" target ="showframe2" value="Image1">//--> <input type="button" onclick="confirmation()" target ="showframe2" value="Image"> <input type="button" target ="showframe2" onClick="window.location='frame1.html'" value="Network"> <input type="button" onclick="" value="System"> <input type="button" onclick="" value="Application"> <input type="button" onclick="" value="SD Card"> <!--</form>//--> </body> </html> I'm trying to have an input event also hyperlink to a page! Right now- this is what is happening: -Visitor hovers over an input-button image, this image changes -A second image on a different part of the page also changes when the visitor hovers what I want it to also do: -Visitor can click the button, and then go to a new page. Here is my code: HTML Code: <a href="http://google.com"><input id="A" type=image onmouseover="swap(this , srcA2 , srcXA)" onmouseout="swap(this , srcA , srcX)" value=" "></a> As you can see, I'm using both onmouseover & onmouseout tags. Right now, I'm also using a basic <a href=""></a> hyperlink in order to allow the visitor to click & go to a new page. This works in firefox just fine- but IE does not recognize the input button as a link. Are there any ways to solve this? I'm thinking I should use an OnClick event, but I don't know how to do this! Help would be greatly appreciated! i have seen alot of place on web that sometimes programmers are using :- <input type="button" / > and sometimes <input type="button" > Is there any difference between the two? What is correct way of using <input> tag, is it with end slash '/' or not ? The page can be found he http://www.trinityacademy.org/alumni/addressBook. You can tab from field to field but can't click on the fields. IF Google toolbar is enabled then you can click on the fields that Google recognizes for autofil but not on the fields it does not. I am baffled by this one. Any ideas??? Hi, I have to display the results in 20 columns, in that 14 columns are frozen, rest of them are scrollable, when I give table widht in % then scrollbar presents to view the data in Firefox. If I see the same in IE, it doesnt show all the data, and there is no scrollbar. If I give the table width in px form then to some extent I am able to see the scrollbar in IE, and minimum pixel I had to give is 3000 and above. Is there any common solution to me to fix this so that I can see same both the browsers. We would like to have solution, width in % not in px. Please let me know the solution for this. I have attached the zip file for your reference to see the code, please run in IE and Firefox and check it. Advanced thanks, Venkat Hey, I'm jst starting to learn html and I was someone could give me an example of how to create a a simple form with 2 input fields which are set to a value say "hello" in first field and "World" in second field when the button is clicked. Thanks HI is there any way to disable the maximise button in mozilla firefox. I use this code and this is able to disable the maximsie button in IE but not in mozilla. Code: <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function popUp(URL) { day = new Date(); id = day.getTime(); eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=200,height=200,left = 540,top = 412');"); } </script> <body> <form> <input type=button value="Open the Popup Window" onClick="javascript:popUp('testme.html')"> </form> <body> I have a BUTTON element in which I am placing and image.

It works in Safari (4.02) and IE7. When I say not working, I mean that when I click the submit button, the address does not change to the form processing url: Code: <!-- The data encoding type, enctype, MUST be specified as below --> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST"> <!-- MAX_FILE_SIZE must precede the file input field --> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" /> <!-- Name of input element determines name in $_FILES array --> Send this file: <input name="mp3file" type="file" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send File" /> </form> The file uploader.php does nothing, it is blank, I'm merely trying to establish communication. Once again, the code functions in IE and Safari so I dont think this is PHP related. Okay, with frames, whenever there is a link that you want to open up in the parent browser rather than inside the frame, all you have to add to the link code is "target="_parent"". However, for INPUT BUTTONS(not links) this doesn't seem to be the case. This is my input button code: HTML Code: <input id="button" type="button" value="Submit!"> the input button is INSIDE A FRAME, and because of that, when I click on it- the link goes inside the frame... how do I make it so the input button links to the PARENT browser? im creatinh a box containing a text. The box must be wide enough to fill a text. menu.style.width = tekst.length - this functioin gives the number of letters in text. So if the text is "hello" then the width is 5 pixels. But i need the widith of pixels needed to fit the text in a box. How can i do that? Hi, Is there away to force my website to fit an Iphone screen when viewed on the iphone. At the moment the width doesn't full span the Iphones screen so it looks bad. http://pjm.co.uk.uksite4.yourwebserv...splay&PageID=5 Thanks alot Joe Hi, I'm designing a web page that contains two frames. One of these frames contains some text and when I click this text, I want it to open a new web page in each frame. As far as I can tell, this means giving two links with two different targets to the same text and I've tried wrapping the text with two <a> tags, but to no avail. My current pages look something like this: Quote: This is the HTML code for my frames page: <html> <frameset cols="42%,*"> <frame name="table" src="table.html"> <frame name="image" src="image.html"> </frameset> </html> Quote: This is the relevant code in table.html, the page that contains the text which has to open a link in each frame: <a target="table" href="1.html"><a target="image" href="Images/project_Page_01.jpg">This is supposed to open both links</a></a> I've tried with having only one or both closing </a> tags and neither of them work. What happens is only the first link, 1.html, opens in the "table" frame. The second link is completely ignored. I might be doing this completely wrong but I'd appreciate any help or pointers as to what I should do to fix this. Thanks! Suppose a user types the url of a website in their browser, so that the script http://url/index.htm is displayed in the browser. In other words, the user is not opening the page via a link or whatever, they are just typing in your url. In that situation, what (if anything) can you put in that script itself that gives the user's browser window a name that can be referred to later. The reasons why I want to do this are complicated, but in a nutshell this first window will become the parent window of other windows that open up later via links within the page, and script within those windows will have to refer to it by a name. Alternatively, is there some standard name that your browser window automatically recieves when you open up a website, like "parent" or something, that allows you to refer to it? |
