JavaScript - Random Content From External Html File Into A Div
Hi people, I would like to make the following thing:
Load a random file, from a xml list, into a div. I've made a scheme where I show what I was trying to make, but I don't know how to make it. I would like to load into a div a random HTML file, loaded from a XML. Does anyone knows an similar example or can tell me how's possible to do this, please? is it better to do with Javascript ? thanks for the attention guys Similar TutorialsHello, I am in situation where I need a code to redirect a HTML page to new location (Static HTML/Dynamic Web page) however the challenge is that I can not use usual JavaScript Redirect code due to restriction that we can't execute any code/script under body tag. I found that this can be done using an external JS file however I am not able to achieve this. I need the code to be generic so we can apply the same JS file to any page. However, I want the new window to open over the previous one versus opening a second new window. Can someone help me out in this? I have some HTML that I want to put in a Javascript file and reference the HTML through external Javascript file. So I have my page, example.html Code: <html> <head></head> <body> <script type="text/javascript src="../js/external.js"> </script> </body> </html> external.js Code: document.write("<p class="txt_medium style4"> example.com<br />101 Street St.<br />City, ST, ZIP</p><p class="txt_medium style4">"The Best website." </p>");
The above code is all on one line, but is not displaying on the page. PHP is out of the question too (_._) Any thoughts? Hi, 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 <script type="text/javascript src="abc.js"></script> in the header file but i want it in a href tag any clues really helpful. thankyou all. That's right, I want to load a random html file from a list into a another div. Does anyone knows any example, please? It would be very helpful. Thanks Hi guys, I need your help in this... I try to reuse double combo boz with description in http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/...ombotext.shtml... I need to make it load content from external div instead of text in array as description. This is because there are so many selection and some can refer to the same description. I already changed the description so it can read html tag. But I have no idea how to put div id inside array and load the div content. Anyone can help me solve this? Really appreciate your help I'm using the script below in a custom HTML to generate a random line of text (not with the text shown here). This works fine BUT; I want it to go randomly through the WHOLE list without repeating lines that already have been printed. As it is now, a line of text might be printed several times in a row, which is a little annoying. I'm using a refresh button for generating a new line of text. Alternatively, How can I just make it display in the order shown and just re-arrange the content so it seems random to the user? Random would the best though... Any ideas?? : ) Code: <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- var r_text = new Array (); r_text[0] = "All the leaves are brown"; r_text[1] = "And the sky is grey"; r_text[2] = "I've been for a walk"; r_text[3] = "On a winter's day"; r_text[4] = "I'd be safe and warm"; r_text[5] = "If I was in L.A."; r_text[6] = "California dreaming, On such a winter's day"; var i = Math.floor(7*Math.random()) document.write(r_text[i]); //--> </script> Hi, I'm new to JavaScript and I'm having a bit of trouble understanding something that seems relatively simple. When I make changes to CSS in JavaScript using '.style' I'm changing the attribute values of inline CSS. Can I use JavaScript to change the attribute values of rules in an external CSS file? I have no CSS in my html and would like to know if I can grab the values of attributes in an external CSS file using JavaScript. Thank you. Hey all, I'm fairly new to JavaScript. I learned PHP and now I'm creating a user registration and login system for an application I'm making and I decided I wanted to give JS a try. I'm trying to make a form validation function that will be called when I press the submit button on the form but I want to use an external js file to store all my custom functions. I have the OnClick event in the button with the call to my function inside of that. But where and how on the page to I reference my external file so that the button can call the function? Thanks guys! Hi guys. I've made a html file with three lists to populate different pages of my site. Then i've called the html with SSI. let me show the code the HTML with the list's Code: <div id="list_box"> <ul class="list"> <li><a href="#">item01</a></li> <li><a href="#">item02</a></li> <li><a href="#">item03</a></li> <li><a href="#">item04</a></li> <li><a href="#">item05</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="list_box"> <ul class="list"> <li><a href="#">item06</a></li> <li><a href="#">item07</a></li> <li><a href="#">item08</a></li> <li><a href="#">item09</a></li> <li><a href="#">item10</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="list_box"> <ul class="list"> <li><a href="#">item11</a></li> <li><a href="#">item12</a></li> <li><a href="#">item13</a></li> <li><a href="#">item14</a></li> <li><a href="#">item15</a></li> </ul> </div> the HTML with the list loaded Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

the zip with the sample I've made load_external.zip I wanted to ask how can I make an item from the list's to have a different css in the html with the loaded list's. because in each page one of the items (that are all buttons) will be up or should I say active. can someone tell me how can I do this please. Maybe with javascript? thanks in advance Hi I'm trying to call a external .js file that contains a function from a webpage, but haven't been able to discover how to reference the function. First, the function: Code: function biggestOfTwo(valueOne, valueTwo)
{
var big;
if(valueOne > valueTwo)
{
big = valueOne;
}
else
{
big = valueTwo;
}
return big;
}

According to the book Beginning JavaScript 4th Edn, this should work - why isn't it? Jenny I have an issue with my javascript files loading (i.e. checking the source code of the page after having loaded yields working links to my external files and the JQuery loading for sure after running some test), but calling a function from my javascript file works in no way shape or form. For example, one test I was running was: From my .js file Code: $("p").click( function() { $(this).hide(); } )
This will work on a standalone page when I test it (not loading from external .js file), but not in the page I need to get my scripts running on. Hi, I need some help with a bit of a challenge. I need to allow users to spesify a file stored on their hard drive, read the file and populate a table and eventually a database. I can probably upload the file using <input type='file'> but what then? How do I access the file after this, or is there a better way? Using XMLHTTP gives 'access denied.....' I can not use PHP as the site does not support PHP. For those who know the environment - it's a QuickBase application I need to upload to....... Thanks Nic I have this file: IPToned.js Code: // ==UserScript==
// @name IPToned
// @namespace http://users9.jabry.com/chatleague
// @description IPTorrents Filter Enhancements
// ==/UserScript==
alert("hello world");
I drag and drop it into Firefox (Ubuntu) and it opens it as if it were a txt file. I want it to make the alert so I can get to coding. Any suggestions? Hello everybody, I am currently working on displaying KML-values of ElementTags within my KML File. I already integrated the KML file as an overlay to my Google Map. But how am I able to parse the GGeoXml-object or how am I able to parse external ("http://www.myexample.org/polygons.kml" instead of just "polygons.kml") XML-files? At the moment my code for loading the geoxml file looks like this: Code: function initialize(kmlFile) {
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
map.setUIToDefault();
map.setCenter(new GLatLng(53.763325,-2.579041), 9);
// ==== Create a KML Overlay ====
if(!(kmlFile==null)){
//check if it doesnt start with "http://"
if(!(kmlFile.startsWith("http://"))){
kmlFile = "http://" + kmlFile;
$('kmllink').value = kmlFile;
}
var kml = new GGeoXml(kmlFile);
//add Overlay to the googlemaps window
map.addOverlay(kml);
//$('subject').value = "SUBJECT";
//$('content').value = "CONTENT";
kml.gotoDefaultViewport(map);
// Store center and zoom as properties of the object kml
var centerKML= kml.getDefaultCenter();
var zoomKML = map.getZoom();
map.panTo(centerKML);
map.setZoom(zoomKML);
}
}
}
And for parsing local XML-files this code works already: Code: function loadXML()
{
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{
xhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else // Internet Explorer 5/6
{
xhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xhttp.open("GET","test.kml",false);
xhttp.send("");
//xmlDoc=xhttp.responseXML;
xmlDoc = xhttp.responseXML;
var placemark=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Placemark");
alert(placemark[0].getElementsByTagName("name")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
ajaxLoader("http://www.zki.dlr.de/mod/ext/fireModis/yesterday_en.kml","Placemark");
}
My question: Is there any way to integrate parsing external xml files in any of these two functions? Best regards, TsEMaNN Code: <!-- Add-in device.js files are placed here --> <div id="deviceScript"></div> What I have been doing is clearing this out when I select a new (add-in) device and append a script tag with its .src file. I have some vague idea that unhooking an external js file might remove its code from memory. If not is there a way to do so? Functions in different script files have the same name - for example, I use start() to set up each device. It seems that the latest device start() overwrites the one in memory - but I am not sure if overwrite means delete last one or whether there is some horrendous build up of dross going on. Any clarification appreciated. I'm trying to execute an php file (which is present on an other host) by javascript. I've got three files for this: The javascript that calls the main program (launch.htm): Quote: <html> <script type="text/javascript"> document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='http://www.mysite.com/reservetest.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E")); </script> </html> The main program: (reservetest.js) Quote: function goer() { var url = 'test.php'; var pars="x=4&y=3"; makeHttpRequest(url+"?"+pars, thanks); } function thanks(text) { document.write(text); //$("divname").innerHTML=text; } function $() { if (arguments.length == 1) return get$(arguments[0]); var elements = []; $c(arguments).each(function(el){ elements.push(get$(el)); }); return elements; function get$(el){ if (typeof el == 'string') el = document.getElementById(el); return el; } }; function makeHttpRequest(url, callback_function, return_xml) { var http_request, response, i; var activex_ids = [ 'MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0', 'MSXML2.XMLHTTP', 'Microsoft.XMLHTTP' ]; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari, IE7+... http_request = new XMLHttpRequest(); if (http_request.overrideMimeType) { http_request.overrideMimeType('text/xml'); } } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE6 and older for (i = 0; i < activex_ids.length; i++) { try { http_request = new ActiveXObject(activex_ids[i]); } catch (e) {} } } if (!http_request) { alert('Unfortunately your browser doesnt support this feature.'); return false; } http_request.onreadystatechange = function() { if (http_request.readyState !== 4) { // not ready yet return; } if (http_request.status !== 200) { // ready, but not OK alert('There was a problem with the request.(Code: ' + http_request.status + ')'); return; } if (return_xml) { response = http_request.responseXML; } else { response = http_request.responseText; } // invoke the callback callback_function(response); }; http_request.open('GET', url, true); http_request.send(null); } goer(); And finally the test file (test.php): Quote: <html><body>just a test</body></html> It works fine when I use all three files on the same host. However when I use launch.htm on an other host (which is the idea behind it) it gives me 'There was a problem with the request (code 0)'. When I change the url variable within reservetest.js to a relative/absolute path it gives me a 'access denied' on http_request.open line. Main idea is to show the user (who puts the code from launch.htm) on his/her website the contents of my test.php file (which retrieves mysql data). I think it's a security issue with the http_request.open line. Is there a way to work around this? Or am I missing something here? I don't want to use an iframe to retrieve information from my other host. relatively new coder here definitely new to js and I can't figure out how to get this script linked into an external file every time I try nothing shows up.

obviously get rid of html tags and <script></script> tags save it as file.js and then <script type="text/javascript" src="file.js"> </script> do i need to break this up into 2 files or something I can't get it to work Hello Guys, I have a question here.. I have a scroller on my pages that basically reads a text file and displays.. The problem that I am having is it doesn't update until I reload the page(even though the .txt file updates about every 3 minutes).. I would like it to update when the file has been changed.. Here is my page. PHP Code: <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../css/li-scroller.css" type="text/css"> <script src="../../js/jquery.li-scroller.1.0.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jquery-1.6.1.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function(){ $("ul#ticker01").liScroll(); }); </script> <?php $file = file_get_contents ('playingnow.txt'); ?> <div class="scrollpos"> <ul id="ticker01"> <li><a href="#"><?php Echo $file;?></a></li> <!-- eccetera --> </ul> </div> What can I add to make it go out and reload just the div not the entire page? Please advise.. Hi I have 2 external javascript files added in the head section of a html file but neither will work. However, if i place the javascript code in the html file it work. I'm lost and need help. Could it be the onload function
Code: <body onload="showCookies(); startBanner();"> |
