HTML - Image Button Jumps To Top Of Page
Hello, I'm experiencing a small but annoying problem.
My html form works fine when the submit button is an "ugly grey button" (input type=button), but when I try changing the button to show a nice jpg (input type=image) the form still submits ok, but the page always jumps to the top. This is annoying, because people should be able to scroll down through the page, click the button, and continue scrolling down to the next button. Many thanks in advance for any helpful explanations or hints! Simon Similar TutorialsHi, I am trying to build my daughter's website on geocities and for the videos section I am trying to use page jumps DIVs. I am using mozilla and everytime I go on it the page jumps and the DIVs is all mess up and I don't know what's wrong with it then I tried going on internet explore and my codes worked on there but just not on mozilla. Does anybody know what I can do or change? I am currently using the basic html DIVs and page jumps. Hey all, me and my friend have a cleaning company and we deciced to make a webpage. It's been a good 6 years since i have worked on a website. My biggest accomplishment so far was getting the contact form to work properly on the site. It does, i feel like i've done alot lol. Anyway, the current design is a rough layout (suggestions are welcome). It still needs a lot of little touches to make it look more "full". My biggest concern now is when your clicking from page to page the table jumps around. In firefox, the Contact Us and Services page are perfect, nice and centered. The image i'm using where the navigation buttons are is in place as well. When you go to the other pages though the table moves a bit and it looks like the image i'm using where the navigation buttons are starts to repeat. In Internet Exploder, everything doesn't look centered. There seems to be more space on the right than on the left, but the image i'm using for the navigation buttons seems to be fine, it's not repeating. I dunno what's causing this. I know different browsers display stuff in different ways but i'm far from having a good understanding as to why (that's why i'm here). I even copied txt from one of the messed up pages and pasted it on one of the pages that is ok and that didn't work. I assume it's a CSS thing. Also, try and avoid saying things like "Table designs are for teh n00bz!11!" or "This is why CSS is better than using a table design!!!". This is how i did it. Im ok with CSS but i don't have a thorough understanding of it to design an entire website using CSS. I'm hoping this is an easy CSS fix, or maybe something else? The website is www.gocleantoday.com. Thanks. O.k so my brains about done in for the week & I'm trying to help out a friend with his website. I realise theres a lot wrong with this page but the one thing that is really bugging me. When I scroll up & down a few times the image jumps out of its position/duplicates/clones & stays there until page refresh or even minimise & restore - then all is good again. Any ideas, advice greatly appreciated thanks http://www.linksdisk.com/redback/NEW/2_about_us.html Hello everyone. I am having the worst time trying to figure this one out. I created a site for a hair salon and every time the page loads for the first time, it jumps from right to left. Does anyone know why it is doing this? There is an example link below. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. http://www.erizzo.net/studiod/index.html I am creating a website that has a search button with an image. I would like to know if there is some simple code that I can include that would display the same basic image with a different color when the user mouses over the button. Here is the code: <FORM name="searchform" onSubmit="return validateSearch();" METHOD="POST" ACTION="search_results_lt.asp"> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Search" VALUE="" SIZE="20" > <INPUT TYPE=IMAGE SRC="images/search_button.gif" Name="SearchButton" Value="Submit"> </FORM> **** Thanks for your help, Robin http://www.danielbourne.net/pdwcs/1/about.html this seems to work fine in firefox but in internet explorer creates pading and i cant see how could someone lease look and see what im doing wrong ? So in January 2006 I posted a question about "making two buttons in one" 3 years and 5 months later i am happy to announce that I have found a solution. Ok, so no I have not spent the last three years looking, but the need for one came around again yesterday so I revisited the project. All I needed was "simple" image toggle. Image 'A' click it once it changes to image 'B' click it again it changes back to image 'A' All the "image toggle" codes I could find were extremely complex. I thought I had finally found one, it wasn't perfect, but it was the smallest and most basic thing I could find. HTML Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> .on {background-image:url(playlist_btn.png); background-repeat:no-repeat;} .off {background-image:url(playlist_btn_x.png); background-repeat:no-repeat;} </style> <script language="javascript"> function togglestyle(el){if(el.className == "on") {el.className="off";} else {el.className="on";}} </script> </head> <body> <div id="onoff" class="playlist_btn"><img src="blank.gif" width="50 height="50" onclick="togglestyle(onoff)"></div> </body> </html> I tested it, it worked, so I considered problem solved. I placed it in my page and nothing. Turns out it wont work with a doc type - so it's useless. Other problems, I'm not big on using "blank gif's" unless I have to, if you want multiple image toggles you need a new JS function for each one, and two lines of css as well. And, though I rarely use image rollovers anymore, it would certainly not be possible in this method. So it was back to the drawing board. Well, I had actually already found the solution a few minuets prior to finding out that the above code is so good. I had coded a button that on rollover shows a tooltip, when you click the button, the text in the tool tip, changes, chick again and it reverts. All done with a simple showHide javascript function, that i am finfing out has many uses. here is the awesome code: Code: function showHide(elementid){ if (document.getElementById(elementid).style.display == 'none'){ document.getElementById(elementid).style.display = ''; } else { document.getElementById(elementid).style.display = 'none'; } } function hideShow(elementid){ if (document.getElementById(elementid).style.display == ''){ document.getElementById(elementid).style.display = 'none'; } else { document.getElementById(elementid).style.display = ''; } } I wont take credit for the showHide code, but I will take credit for the hideShow portion, obviously a monkey could have coded the revers, but iot does make it that much more universal. As the original code was designed to show something that was hidden, add the revers to hide something that is showing and it's perfect. Now I will take a moment to say, though I have yet to find a problem with the code, it seems to work in most browsers, firefox, ie, safari, and validates for WC3 - In sure it has it's flaws. Until now, to show and hide divs I had used the MM_showHideLayers JavaScript function, which by default used the visibility style. It is of course a good script, and has many uses, it's not very big, but it is somewhat complex. The other thing to think about is that invisible objects still take up space. That's what is cool about the display:none: style, is that is not only invisible but it doesn't take up space. So here is how I used the above to JavaScript to make a simple onclick image toggle: HTML Code: <img id="on" src="on.png" width="50" height="50" onClick="javascript:hideShow('on'); javascript:showHide('off')" alt="on"> <img id="off" src="off.png" width="50" height="50" onClick="javascript:hideShow('off'); javascript:showHide('plus')" style="display:none;" alt="off"> Cool huh? Now this example does not have a rollover either, but since it uses to individual images and is not replacing one image wioth another you could easily apply a rollover to both images. But, hold on, look at the above code, isn't that essentially a rollover? Change the first onClick to onMouseOver and the second to onMouseOut and look at that a 'brand new' method for mouseovers. So lets take a look at this for a second, and compare MM_swapImage to this new hideShow method. As far as CSS rollovers I definitely prefer them to the MM_swapImage method, as they use a minimal amount of code. However they actually take a lot of math, construction the buttons is somewhat tedious, because css buttons use 1 image and change it's position, to work well you have to use a "blank.gif" and the the css can really add up if you have a lot of buttons: Also, you can't go directly to a button in the document, you have to fish through the css to make any adjustments. But they are fast, they don't need to be preloaded and... they are pretty cool. But anyway, swapImage and hideShow... The left is the MM_swapImage method. Now when you use the swapImage js you also have to use MM_swapImgRestore, MM_findObj, MM_preloadImages. You don't have to use the preload script but it does make thing work faster... supposedly, but that requires a onload script in the body tag, and if you have a lot of rollovers your body tag can get really long really quick. So what are the advantages, well we know for sure it works, and you only need on image in the document, however actualy having the image you are "swapping" too actually in the document can add functionality. So as you can see, on the right, the showHide method is, in total code, much smaller. True you do need to use two images, so the total code in the body is longer but, it's more than evened out bu the minimal JavaScript, and I think it's worth it. You don't need to use a preloader, you have full control over both images, the up and over state, and unlike the swapImage method, though it's rare you would need to, your up and over images can actually be different sizes, which is kind of cool. So here's the basic code for a rollover: HTML Code: <img id="up" src="up.png" width="50" height="50" onMouseOver="javascript:hideShow('up'); javascript:showHide('over')" alt="up"> <a href="http://google.com"><img id="over" src="over.png" width="50" height="50" onMouseOut="javascript:hideShow('over'); javascript:showHide('up')" style="display:none;" alt="over" border="0"></a> To add a link the button you just apply it to the "over state" image. And unlike swapImage, though it is overkill, you can also add a "downstate" image quite easily. So, back to the on/off button here is how you would code it using showHide with rollovers. HTML Code: <img id="on" src="on.png" width="50" height="50" onMouseOver="javascript:hideShow('on'); javascript:showHide('onover')" alt="on"> <img id="onover" src="on_over.png" width="50" height="50" onMouseOut="javascript:hideShow('onover'); javascript:showHide('on')" onClick="javascript:hideShow('onover'); javascript:showHide('offover')" style="display:none;" alt="onover"> <img id="off" src="off.png" width="50" height="50" onMouseOver="javascript:hideShow('off'); javascript:showHide('offover')" style="display:none;" alt="off"> <img id="offover" src="off_over.png" width="50" height="50" style="display:none;" onMouseout="javascript:hideShow('offover'); javascript:showHide('off')" onClick="javascript:hideShow('onover'); javascript:showHide('off')"alt="offover"> So here is what is going on: you have the upstate on.png image, when you mouse over it on.png is hidden and on_over.png is displayed. When you click on_over.png it is hidden and off_over.png is display, mouse off it and off.png is displayed. Make scene? Now be aware, when you click, you are also in a scene "mousing off" so some flickering can occur. Firefox handles everything pretty well, IE and Safari not so much. When you click the on_over.png the click tells it to hide on_over.png and show the off_over.png, at the same time the mouseoff tells it to hide on_over.png and show the on.png. So fortunately the toggle with rollovers isn't perfect, but perhaps some more tweaking of the code or maybe, in this case swapImage would work better to do the rollovers... But all in all I'd say its a solid concept. If you feel compiled to do so, reply with any comments, concerns or flaws you see. I've tried multiple ideas but basically I just want it to be a regular grey button with the dimensions of the image I want to slap on the front of it so it will to a click down animation when someone clicks on it but so far all I get is this... HTML Code: <FORM METHOD="LINK" ACTION="mms://media.huntingtonnews.net/video/2007/BillDargusch-Downtowns-1.wmv"> <BUTTON TYPE="submit"><IMG SRC="http://www.huntingtonnews.net/images/baseball1-tn.jpg" alt="wow"></BUTTON> </FORM> And that is pretty good but the grey parts of the button sticking out make it look horrible. Does anyone know a way to shrink the button to the image size?... Codeguru Hi... I got a question tht puzzeled me whole day and i dont know how to solve,Can you please help me?

It will be a link to another page. I have this html. I have three images.They are gifs. I also have three more in .png. I can make just about any kind of file. When i made the files i used transparency and interlaced. I'll attach images. I want one to appear when to mouse goes over it and one to appear when it's clicked. The attached ones are .png's. thanks I have the following code but the images do not swap: Quote: <input type="image" name="action" value="Submit" src="{site_url}images/submit_a.gif" class="Button" onMouseOver="document.submit_form.src='{site_url}images/submit_b.gif'; return true;" onMouseOut="document.submit_form.src='{site_url}images/submit_a.gif'; return true;" > The {site_url} replaces the site domain name. I have confirmed the the images exist. Any ideas? Hello all. Our Website runs wordpress with a standard header, body and one sidebar template. We need to be able to have an image in the sidebar that when it is clicked, a different image is then opened at the top of the body. Is this possible? Thanks for your time. kevin I have a small image (icon) which when clicked will take you to one of x number of sites via a random link generator. Here is my html where randomlink refers to a javascript routine in the head. <form> <p><input type="button" name="B1" value="Random Link >>" onclick="randomlink()"></p> </form> This works fine in returning a random website (actually one from a list). But I would like to replace the button with an image. I tried this but no joy: <form> <input type="image" onclick="randomlink()" value="Random Link >>" src="../images/icon.jpg"> </form> What am I doing wrong? Hugh I am new to HTML. I just started yesterday and found it to be useful so far. I am in the process of setting up a website so I searched for a template to use, but it wasn't complete. I think everything is in place except for the 5 page link buttons on the side. Currently they all link to the same site, but I can fix that myself. I need to put text over the image while still allowing the button to be clicked, but I don't know how. I put an image of what I want inside the attached zip file. Thanks in advance.

Hi, this is jyothi. I am new in this site, I am preparing new program with login page, But I don't know the script for the login button, Can anyone please help me. Hello all, I am looking to see if there is a simple way to provide a print button for static Text and/or images within a simple table. The content will not change, so I want to see if I can provide a programmed print button for the content within each table. The application is a FAQ page of a website. Currently, the page is long and printing a particular FAQ item is not possible. Expecting the viewers to be web-savvy enough to know how to print selected text is out of the question, as well as providing them this tip in writing. There needs to be a print button. I found this: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tu...rinttable.html but since I am not familiar with coding much beyond basic html I am not sure if this applies or how to implement the code examples in a webpage. I use Dreamweaver MX '04 to edit page html. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Hi all Have a really big prob with intro page.
