JavaScript - Defining A Unique Identifier In Deploying Disqus Comments On A News Site
I'm installing a Disqus commenting system on a news site. Javascript attaches a comment thread to the end of a story page, based on the story's url.
Our issue is that many stories may have multiple urls, and we want a single comment thread on those stories. A single story may have a url like this: www.newspaper.com/ci_12345678 and this: www.newspaper.com/entertainment/ci_12345678 Disqus provides an alternative var disqus_identifier I'd like to define disqus_identifier to the final 8-digit story ID, read from the url. Here's the way the code looks: Code: <div id="disqus_thread"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> /** * var disqus_identifier; [Optional but recommended: Define a unique identifier (e.g. post id or slug) for this thread] */ (function() { var dsq = document.createElement('script'); dsq.type = 'text/javascript'; dsq.async = true; dsq.src = 'http://newspaper.disqus.com/embed.js'; (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(dsq); })(); </script> I'm not sure how to define var disqus_identifier. Can anyone help me out? Similar TutorialsI have been working on this for four hours and none of the methods online have worked. Every site has outdated screenshots and I have nowhere else to turn. There's supposedly just a couple of lines of code and "3 easy steps" to allow me to have a Facebook comment box on any page of my site. I DO NOT use Wordpress or any blogging software / sites. I am working from scratch in Dreamweaver. What am I missing?
Can someone explain how to deploy an application in red5 webapps directory? On a remote server? Or is this something I'd have to hire a consultant for? Thanks I just noticed that my pseudo-streaming movie code causes an error with IE7. I works fine with IE8, FireFox, Chrome... I have been looking on my own and found that it's likely a misplaced comma in my code, the other browser are debugging it, but IE7 will not. The error suggests it's where I have indicated below. I've tried removing the comma just after "about_us.jpg" and that causes the script to fail completely. Can anyone help me here, please? Code: <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ flowplayer("player", {src: "http://www.mysite.org/flowplayer/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.5.swf", wmode: 'opaque'}, { // product key from your account key: '#$xxxxxxxxx', // configure clip to use "lighthttpd" plugin for providing video data playlist: [ { url: 'http://www.mysite.org/media/video/about_us.jpg', }, //<----error suggest here??? { url: 'http://www.mysite.org/flowplayer/streamer.php?file=about_us.flv', provider: 'lighttpd', bufferLength: "2", autoBuffering: false }], // streaming plugins are configured normally under the plugins node plugins: { lighttpd: { url: 'http://www.mysite.org/flowplayer/flowplayer.pseudostreaming-3.2.5.swf', // use ${start} as a placeholder for the target keyframe queryString:escape('&start=${start}') } } }); //]]> </script> I am trying to figure out how to code this type of horizontal navigation like this site. http://www.maxdesign.com.au/ When you click on, say, "News", the CSS button turns red and white. I am thinking that this is done with JavaScript and a basic CSS list menu. But I cannot seem to find an example of this the of menu anywhere. The Max Design site is based on WordPress and apparently this navigation uses an API built into the WP framework. I need this type of horizontal menu for a custom coded CSS and PHP site. Any and all help would be appreciated. Either code or point me to a tutorial. Thanks, WiLd Hi.. I am facing identifier starts immediately after numeric literal error in firefox onclick="document.location.href='<%= themeDisplay.getPathMain() %>/portal/ext/asite/assignOrg'"/> can any 1 solve this?? Hey guys, I've been learning Javascript for a few days using code academy. I've come across this issue, and I'm not sure what exactly I'm doing wrong. Any help would be great. // Check if the user is ready to play! confirm("I am ready to play!"); var age = prompt("What's your age?"); if (age < 13) { console.log("I take no responsiblity, but you are allowed to play") } else { console.log("Have fun!") } console.log("You are at a Justin Bieber concert, and you hear this lyric 'Lace my shoes off, start racing.'") console.log("Suddenly, Bieber stops and says, 'Who wants to race me?'") var userAnswer = prompt("Do you want to race Bieber on stage?"); if userAnswer === "yes" { console.log("You and Bieber start racing.

If so, it plays a happy sound; if not, it plays a sad sound. Everything is working great so far, except for the sound. The html is being set correctly when a cup is selected, but Firebug is telling me the sound files are undefined. Same when I enter the function: playSound("[filename].WAV") in the console. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

I'm using a switch statement for all the different combinations of options, which the user will choose by selecting check-boxes. I'd really appreciate if anyone could point out where I'm going wrong. (Additionally, I know that this code probably isn't a very efficient way of doing what I'm doing - I'm open to suggestions on how to improve it.) I've attached all the relevant parts of the code, including how I defined variables originally.

Hi, I had a site and it used jskit comments. I now moved the site and would still like to keep the comments. Is there anyway to do that? Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum for posting, but i've been reading threads on this site for a few months now.. seems like a decent place to get info... so, hello everyone! My name's Will, (musical moniker on soundcloud / fb etc is StrangeFlow, i make electronic music, funk, hip hop, etc... ) ..I'm 25, I'm in Lansing , Michigan, my hometown (but still have residency in NorCal, where Im trying to get back to in a few months) I have some experience programming but i'm sure not as much as some of the experts on here i dont know if it's bad etiquette to post a question in my first thread but i have a good question that hasn't been able to get resolved, and I figured someone on here might have some good advice.. Does anyone on here use soundcloud? they have a really nifty timed-comments bar, you can check it out on any soundcloud music page... Ive started seeing it on vimeo recently, I think it's something thats starting to catch on. Anyway,, I had an idea for a website, but the thing is, it would require a timed-comments bar. But.. my problem is, since I'm not as much of an expert as some of the people on here, what would it take to program it? I'm learning some C#, and I heard it would be that or php.. but.. I don't know.. any advice on that timed comments thing? Any good points in the right direction would be extremely appreciated! Thanks everyone! I look forward to posting more in the future on this forum, and I'll gladly offer any of my advice on topics I am knowledgable. -StrangeFlow Good afternoon all, I need a bit fo help with unhiding a selection. I have a 10 checkboxes on a form. When the user clicks one of the boxes the rest are hidden and a comments box shows. That works great, the part I can't figure out is how to make all the boxes show again if the user unchecks the checkbox and make the comments box hide again. Here is the code I am using to do the hide: Code: function HideComments() { var a1 = document.getElementById("crmForm_answer1").checked; var a8 = document.getElementById("crmForm_answer8").checked; var a2 = document.getElementById("crmForm_answer2").checked;

Hi. I'm trying to make a news slider for a website in js. This is what I currently have: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var refresh = setInterval("refresh()", 5000); function refresh() { $('#top_news').load('top_ten.php').fadeIn("slow"); } </script> The id #top_news is an empty div, in which the news are shown, and the file top_ten.php gets top 10 news from the database, and outputs a random one. The script is working fine, but what I want is, for news to slide in and when a new article slides in, the old one slides out. It would be even better, if there is an excistant script, for news or divs (a small image and text). ALSO, when I refresh/load the site, it takes the time from setInterval, to load the news. Thanks Hi to all! Dont know if this is the right place... I have the following jquery script, the function is to sow the submit button when the textarea is selected and dissapear when not. The script works fine, the only thing missing is that I need the box to automaticly adjust height upon lines inputed, same as the facebk web. Code: <div id=\"comments_container\"> <form method=\"POST\" action=\"\"> <textarea id=\"comment_\" name=\"\" rows=\"\" cols=\"\"></textarea> <input id=\"submit_\" type=\"submit\" name=\"submit\" value=\"submit\"> </form> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery("[id^='comment_']").live('focusin focusout',function(e){ var commentText = "Write a comment...", id = this.id.replace('comment_',''), val = jQuery(this).val(); if (e.type == 'focusin'){ val = (val == commentText) ? '' : val; jQuery("#submit_"+id).show(); } else if (e.type == 'focusout') { val = (val == '') ? commentText : val; if( val == commentText){ jQuery("#submit_"+id).hide(); }} jQuery(this).val(val);}).trigger('focusout'); </script> I have the two following code snips im working with... <script type="text/javascript"> var url=document.location.href; document.write(url) </script> & the facebook comments box code: <div class="fb-comments" data-href="url" data-num-posts="20" data-width="550" data-colorscheme="dark"></div> I for the life of me cant figure out how to get the variable "url" into the href for the FB comment box. I'd like to do this so no matter what page the complete code is placed on it knows what page to associate the box with, without individual page editing. I'm new to javascript and can generally do some research and figure out what im doig but this has me baffled :| If anyone has the answer it would be GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks in advance :) Hello, i wanna make animated news bar like the one in the top of site alibaba.com, so how can i do that, anybody have any kind of tutorial for any thing like this please ? thanks Today, all major cell phone makers (exept apple) announced that they will support a common app standard based on html, css, and javascript. Article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20100215...owapplications This means that we can use our web skills to make applications for mobile phones. Previously, we would have to invest learning time into a closed-path system like the iPhone's Objective-C, or a minor player's API like webOS. Called BONDI, it's basically a webpage with some extra generic DOM handles for using system features like fetching contact lists, GPS, sending SMSs, playing a sound, etc. While I am not blown away by the demo widgets linked below, i realize they are little more than "hello world", as much actually as figuratively. I expect support and development to entrench around this simple standard, so more and more hardware features will gradually start working on more and more devices. It's the same notion as the JS/HTML software i wrote years ago for firefox that now works in IE8... Check it out: http://bondi.omtp.org/usebondi/Lists...Y/Gallery.aspx I encourage all to participate in developing for open source platforms like BONDI. While there's more money right now in iPhone, the future belongs to us. Don't support proprietary techs! Besides, i cannot imagine that Apple/some fan boy will not eventually add BONDI support to iPhones; they already have a browser! |
