JavaScript - Open Page To A Specific Slide From Another Page

hi there,

i wish there could be solution to this as I cannot figure how to do it. I would like to have an autocopy and paste data from a page to a textbox...Like if a webpage has the details like receive from: and receive to:, can this text be autocopied to a textbox on a click of a button? the text box is place on another webpage, so there are basically two webpages, 1st page is where the data to be copied is contained while the 2nd webpage is where the textbox is contained. the data to be copied on the 1st page are the contents of received from: and recieved to: like receive from:edward receive to:jacob. So with a click of a button I would like the contents receive from:edward receive to:jacob be copied and pasted on the text box from another page... I hope this sounds clear enough...sorry to be a pain...

regards,

verve

Hi
I have created a very very simple javascript that displays random text quotes.
It is in Greek but here it is anyway: http://gerogriniaris.blogspot.com
It is in blogger and shows up as a gadget. My problem is that i need to make it reload by a button and at the same time go to the top of this gadget (using an anchor).
The reason I want to do this is that I have been sharing this with other bloggers, but if they don't put it on top of their page, as soon as they press the button that reloads the page, they are in the top of the page and they would have to scroll down to find the quote.
I have tried to use window.location.reload with window.location.hash.
It works in Firefox, but not in IE.
I have been trying something like that:
Code:

<input type="button" value="Click to refresh" style="width: 130px" onclick="window.location.hash='#something';window.location.reload()" />

As i said, this works with Firefox, but not with IE9
Also, I can't define urls beforehand because I want other people to be able to use it to their own blog or website.
I suppose this is a noob question, but I have been trying to find a solution and couldn't. Please be kind...
Any ideas?

Hey guys, I have a quick question for you today

I am coding a little login script, just password, the security is meant to be weak I'm using it as a teaching aid: Here is my problem, I want it to go to a page if the password is true, and go to another if it isnt, my code will explain. The window.open works but it takes you to another tab I want it to load in the same place.

Hello All,
i have a script which which restrict a user to access a page once per day, i need your help to modify the script so that a user can view the page once in 90 days.

<script language ='javascript'>
function createCookie(name,value,days) {
if (days) {
var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime()+(days*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString();
}
else var expires = "";
document.cookie = name+"="+value+expires+"; path=/";
}

function readCookie(name) {
var nameEQ = name + "=";
var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
for(var i=0;i < ca.length;i++) {
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0)==' ') c = c.substring(1,c.length);
if (c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0) return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length);
}
return null;
}

/* Check the cookie and redirect if they have it set. */

sWhere = 'http://google.com'; // replace this with where you want them to be sent when they can't view page.

if(!readCookie('viewcheck')){
createCookie('viewcheck',1,1);
} else {
window.location = sWhere;
}
</script>

I am creating chat application.I have friend list with whom login user can chat.onclick of user name i want to open different div in which i can load my chat page.Can anyone suggest me javascript for this task.

Currently the page has some divs' displays set to none. When a user clicks an anchored link, it displays the appropriate div.

Here is the script I'm currently using, which works fine:
Code:

function showApp(whichApp) {
	document.getElementById('dTips').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dCaseStudies').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dWebinars').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dReports').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dDigimags').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dPodcasts').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dNews').style.display='none';
	document.getElementById('dCalendar').style.display='none';

	if (document.getElementById) {
		document.getElementById(whichApp).style.display='block';
	}
}

Here's how I call it within the page:
Code:

<a href="javascript:showApp('dTips')">Tips</a>

Is there any way to modify it so that if the user clicks a link on a different page, it goes to the APPS page and displays the requested div? If not, is there another way to accomplish this task?

I have looked all over for an answer to this, but haven't found a definite way to do it yet.

I am updating my audio page (a demo track list for getting composing work) and getting rid of my flash audio player in favor of embedding .mp3 files, or adding them with the HTML5 audio tag. What I would like to be able to do is link into the page, and have that link autoplay a specific track out of the 10-20 that I will have on the same page. The problem is I am extremely new to scripting and have no idea where to even start with this.

The reason I want it to be able to autoplay specific tracks is so I can market a specific track, and have that person (who is already expecting to hear the music on page load) not have to then look through the track list for that one track I was promoting and click play.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks!

I am current building an information database for the company I work at...basically just a place for employees to get information and answers from. It is all hosted on a local server and I can only use javascript, html, and css. Ive got everything made there is just one thing i want to add to it. basically an "alerts and updates" page that only some people can edit without having to know html so if im not there they can post important updates. no computers have access to the internet so I did try some rich text editors but none of them worked. the lay out I'm going for is kind of like this.
------------------------------------
Alerts and Updates

Click on links to show updates: update 1 * update 2 * update 3 * update 4

stuff goes in the update

[edit button]
-------------------------------------
you click edit it prompts you to login, bring up something to edit the text in that specific update you hit submit and it changes the info that was on there.

The update links are linked to a script i wrote that just display the info below so when the page loads you see whats in update 1 then you click update and it changes the content to the next one.

i dont know if there is any way to do this in javascript and html. any help or a good direction to start would be great...thanks.

Hey there

I want to know how i can make a page that opens and loads content in a div tag when i click a certain link on my home page.

i have a javscript code to load content into a div tag when the link is on the same page as the div tag, but i want to get a script where it will open a new page and load content into a div tag on that page.

like the link must be something like main.html?div=content.html

i know how to do this with iframes, but i want to work with div tags

thank you

javascript for loading content into the div tag on the same page :

PHP Code:

var bustcachevar=1 //bust potential caching of external pages after initial request? (1=yes, 0=no)
var loadedobjects=""
var rootdomain="http://"+window.location.hostname

I have a website that is using ajax to keep the page up to date with the database information. I call this page through a file called start.php. Once index.php is loaded it has a menu with selections. I then want it to call a page called query.php in an iframe to update the information, but not open a new window. In the iframe the query.php will run and then redirect itself to blank.php. The code is as follows and any help would be much appreciated. I have tried several methods of doing this and they have been commented out because they didn't work or didn't do what I wanted them to do. I do not want to use window.open since IE doesn't work well with it.

window.open does work by pop up windows but I want to stay away from them.
The main code I am looking to get help on is in red under start.php.

In start.php I will include the entire file. In index.php I'm only going to include the main sections I use for this snippit. In query.php I'm not going to include query.php since I beleive this file isn't important for this snippit.

start.php
Code:

Hi
Im trying to creat a website so when the small image is rolled over a new page opens in the frame ( called main) i will upload it now to http://www.e-z-host.com/GZ/ all help apricated ! at the momment you have to click to open the page in the main frame.

I have a menu that lists all the categories and sub categories, when someone clicks a main category it opens up the sub cats for it. if someone clicks one of the sub cats the page open up to show all items in that category.

But what I would like to find out is how do I get the menu to open up as it was so it shows the category and sub category open?

Code:

			  <!-- start show cat list -->
			  			  <br><div style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 0.825em; padding: 0em 0em 0.3125em;">Select items by category</div>

Hello Everybody

I have recently been tasked with a unique task and for the life of me I can not work out how to do it.

Using this website as an example:

http://www.coastalcontacts.com/cFaq.html

You can see that the FAQ questions open and close as you click on them, leaving the page looking clean for the most part.

Now I am writing up a landing page that will be doing something similar, however I would like the page to scroll down as each new question is opened up.

Meaning I click on one of the faq questions closer to the bottom of the page and then it scrolls down to show all the new content.

This does not need to happen for questions that do not go to the bottom of the page and are fully visible.

Any and all ideas would be much appreciated

Thank you
