HTML - Hta Windows With Parameters
I have been working on this thing forever!! I am in desperate need of help!!
I currently am running an HTA file called h1.hta and I want to be able to open another HTA called h2.hta that will take in parameters and close the current HTA. I am using this snippet of code to open the new h2.hta(parameters) within my current h1.hta : nextpage = h2.hta?trial=2&condition=1 //vbscript set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run(nextpage) When I run this, I get a "File not Found" error. I believe it's because the file in the system is entitled h2.hta and when i send it with the parameters, it does not recognize. My question is how do I go to another hta file with parameters??? Similar TutorialsHi! I was wondering whether someone could enlighten me (or do it for me), as to how I use URL Parameters. I don't understand javascript, or much html for that matter. I have a page, 'http://goldenlightsoft.org'. I want to set it up so if someone types in 'http://goldenlightsoft.org/index.htm?page=downloads.htm', they would see the normal page, except that the iFrame in the middle ('I1'), would be pointing to downloads.htm of the site, not the normal home.html. I would prefer this system to work without compatibility issues with other browsers, and also I am not sure of the hosts capabilities. I know html and javascript work fine. Can someone help me with this? Thanks, dawmail333 I made a preliminary layout for a website: index4-table-bad.html The problem is that it only works as intended in Opera browser. In IE and in FireFox a problem occurs: the <td id="td-menu2"> expands and shows the red background (I gave the red background intentionally to better see the problem). The "Article", "Menu1", and "News" will be dynamically generated (in php) and can have different heights. There is no option to predict which one will be the tallest. Please tell how should I correct the page so that: - <td id="td-menu"> should not expand and stay 35px heigh and the article should go just below it with 5px spacing (as it now works only in Opera) - as it is now, all areas should end at the bottom at the same level (I mean: "MENU1", "ARTICLE", "NEWS" should end at the same level/line at bottom). What would be the best way to improve this layout to correct abovementioned bug? I haven't been coding html for over 10 years so I am not sure how I should approach to this bug nowadays. Is it better to add Javascript or trasform this layout into divs instead of the table. But even with divs it will perhaps need Javascript to keep areas ends at bottom at same level. Or is there any better way than Javascript? I am working with current browser versions: Opera 9.64, IE 8, FireFox 3.0.10. Regards, Mark I'm working on a site with an image gallery which directly links to images. I'd like to modify this so that, when those images are small, they are no longer displayed off-center and on a white background. At some point in the past I think I remember seeing a site that somehow passed display parameters to the browser along with the image link. Is this possible, or am I imagining things? Thanks for any info. (If this turns out to be impossible, I'll be rebuilding the gallery a bit, and any hints on an easy way to do this would also be apreciated.) I am writing an "external link exit page" where anytime a user clicks on an external link in my site, it navigates to a page exit.html that says something to the effect of: "Please note that you are leaving our website, and therefore we are not responsible for the content of the website you are about to visit." I was thinking of making the destination URL be a parameter, so for example a section of links on my website might look something like this: <h3>Other Sites You Might Find Useful</h3> <a href="exit.html?url=http://www.google.com">Google</a><br /> <a href="exit.html?url=http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo!</a><br /> <a href="exit.html?url=http://www.weather.com">weather.com</a><br /> So in exit.html I have a parameter called url that needs to be decoded and placed in my HTML source. After I display the warning message I want to give the user the option to either go back or continue to the externall url. <h3>You are now leaving our website. Please be advised that we are not responsible for the content of the website you are about to visit. </h3> <h4>Are you sure you want to continue?</h4> <a href="[URL parameter]">Yes! Continue to [URL parameter]</a><br /> <a href="javascript:history.go(-1)">No! Cancel and go back</a><br /> How do I do this? I'm having an issue with the size of my main.swf. When I use the swfobject.embedSWF code, leaving it as 100% 100% covers the entire browser window obscuring my background image. In order to view the image I have entered '1000' and '725' which are the dimensions of my main.swf. However, this left aligns the swf and the height appears to not work, I am left with a black box that extends from the bottom of my main.swf to the bottom of the browser window. What do I need to adjust in order to keep my main.swf top aligned, centered horizontally and my background image visible. Also, if anyone happens to know how I could have the background image scale to fit horizontally/vertically without repeating, that would be great. Thanks.

The technique described here addresses all the major issues in popups. The popup always comes to the front. Different links can target the same popup. The code is simple and easily modified. Everything for the rest of the turorial is a variation on the theme described here. The code in this page creates a popup that is opened from a link. In this section we'll show the code with just the minimal description you need to get it going. First, copy this script into the <HEAD> section of your page: HTML Code: <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> <!-- function popup(mylink, windowname) { if (! window.focus)return true; var href; if (typeof(mylink) == 'string') href=mylink; else href=mylink.href; window.open(href, windowname, 'width=400,height=200,scrollbars=yes'); return false; } //--> </SCRIPT> For now we'll skip the details of how the script works, and move to the next step. The script above opens the popup, but something needs to run the script. The most common situation is that the script is run when the user clicks on a link. A link like the following would run the script: HTML Code: <A HREF="popupbasic.html" onClick="return popup(this, 'notes')">my popup</A> Most of the link is as usual. The URL of the page being linked to is in the HREF attribute. We've added an additional attribute called onClick. Copy the code as it is into your link, with only a small modification. The second argument of the popup() -- 'notes' -- indicates name of the popup window. Every popup window should have its own unique name. Be sure to put the name in single quotes (''). So if you want to name the popup 'stevie' then this would be the code: HTML Code: <A HREF="popupbasic.html" onClick="return popup(this, 'stevie')">my popup</A> Read This Next Part Or You'll Go Insane Trying to Figure Out Why Your Popup Doesn't Work A small but crucial point is often overlooked. The command in onClick must begin with return or the script won't work. Be sure to start the command with return like this: HTML Code: onClick="return popup(this, 'notes')" And don't put a space in the page name between the single quotes. If you do, the link will act just like a regular link. Popup Windows: From an Image Map In our first variation we'll open the popup from an image map instead of from a regular anchor. We'll use the same script as from our first example. With that script, an <AREA ...> tag in an image map can be made to open a popup in exactly the same way as an <A ...> tag: HTML Code: <MAP NAME="index"> <AREA HREF="mypopup.html" ALT="My Popup" COORDS="10,10,120,120" SHAPE=RECT onClick="return popup(this, 'gloss')"> <AREA SHAPE=RECT ALT="Your Popup" COORDS="140,10,180,50" HREF="yourpopup.html" onClick="return popup(this, 'gloss')"> <AREA SHAPE=DEFAULT NOHREF> </MAP> <IMG SRC="mymap.gif" HEIGHT=130 WIDTH=190 ALT="Image Map Example" BORDER="0" USEMAP="#index"> Popup Windows: Opening Automatically In the first two examples (Popup Windows: The Basics and Popup Windows: From an Image Map) the popup is opened when the user clicks on something. In this example the popup opens automatically. We'll use the same script as in the first example. Copy this script in the <HEAD> section of your page: HTML Code: <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> <!-- function popup(mylink, windowname) { if (! window.focus)return true; var href; if (typeof(mylink) == 'string') href=mylink; else href=mylink.href; window.open(href, windowname, 'width=400,height=200,scrollbars=yes'); return false; } //--> </SCRIPT> This time, instead of running the script from a link we'll run it from the onLoad attribute of the <BODY ...> tag. HTML Code: <BODY onLoad="popup('autopopup.html', 'ad')"> The command in onLoad is run when the document is finished loading. Like in our previous example, the command runs popup(), but this time the first argument for popup() is a little different. In the previous example we put this, meaning the link itself, and the script got the URL from the link. In this case there is no link so we pass the actual URL to open. So in our example we put 'autopopup.html'. Popup Windows: From a Form For our next variation on the popup theme we're going to open the popup from a form. In this example we're going to change the script around. The following script is custom designed for opening a popup from a form. It works with forms that use both POST and GET. Copy the following script exactly as-is into the <HEAD> section of your document: HTML Code: <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> <!-- function popupform(myform, windowname) { if (! window.focus)return true; window.open('', windowname, 'height=200,width=400,scrollbars=yes'); myform.target=windowname; return true; } //--> </SCRIPT> Now we'll add some code so that the popup opens when the user submits the form. Add an onSubmit attribute to <FORM ...> tag: HTML Code: <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="../cgi-bin/mypopupcgi.pl" onSubmit="popupform(this, 'join')"> The first argument for popupform() is always this, meaning the form itself. The second argument, 'join' in this case, is a unique name for the popup. Popup Windows: Targeting the Opener Once a popup window has been created, linking from the popup back to the main window (i.e. the window which opened the popup) is a little trickier than might be expected. The problem is that the main window doesn't have a "name" the way the popup window does. Fortunately, JavaScript provides an answer in the form of opener. To create links in the popup window that target back to the main window, first put this JavaScript in the <HEAD> of the popup page: HTML Code: <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> <!-- function targetopener(mylink, closeme, closeonly) { if (! (window.focus && window.opener))return true; window.opener.focus(); if (! closeonly)window.opener.location.href=mylink.href; if (closeme)window.close(); return false; } //--> </SCRIPT> A link that uses this script looks like this: HTML Code: <A HREF="rbex.html" onClick="return targetopener(this)">my page</A> Popup Windows: Closing When They Go to the Opener In the previous example the link in the popup targets the main page, but the popup stays open in the background after the user clicks on the link. In this page we'll set the link so that it closes the popup after the click. targetopener takes three parameters. The first is always this, meaning the link itself. The second and third parameters are optional and default to false. (Notice we don't use them in the example above, we'll get to them shortly.) The second parameter indicates if the popup should close. The third is if the link should actually send the opener to the linked resource, or if the opener should just get the focus regardless of what its current page is. The third parameter provides a safe way to close the popup after closing, but still having a link to an existing page if the window isn't actually a popup (such as if the user found the page through a search engine). When the user clicks on the link, targetopener checks if the browser has the focus command (a few older browsers don't) and if the current window was opened by another window. If these conditions are true, then the opener window gets the focus, the opener is directed to the referenced URL, and the script returns false. Because the function returns false, the link does not go on to the URL (the script has already done that). Note that the link which targets the opener is a little different than the link that opened the popup window to begin with. In this link, onClick says "return goOpener(this)"... the links on the previous pages did not use return. By default, the popup window stays open but is in the background. If you want the popup to close after going back to the opener, add a second parameter of true to the targetopener function call: HTML Code: <A HREF="rbex.html" onClick="return targetopener(this,true)">main page</A> Hey guys. One of my pages is full of hundreads of pictures. When you click them in makes them bigger, but it makes them bigger on the same page. Does anyone have anything that can make any link that is clicked on that page open in a new window. Heres the site. www.jimandanne.net/pictures.htm help would be great, Thanks If I want it so that a link is clicked and that I want that link to open up a new page in a new window--how do I bypass the browser's "paranoia" in thinking it's a bad pop-up or spyware activity? I'm trying to make a website for personal use that will open multiple search engines with one keyword search. I'm not quite sure how to have a text-field input the suggested keyword in the search query portion of the html code. Here's what I have so far: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function open_win() { window.open("http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=asdf&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8") window.open("http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=asdf&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=") } </script> </head> <body> <form> <input type=button value="Open Windows" onclick="open_win()"> </form> </body> </html> What I'm trying to do is replace the "asdf" portion of the code in both the yahoo and the google search parameters to something from an <input type=text> form. If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it. |
