JavaScript - Javascript Not Showing In Ie. Firefox Is Fine. Please Advise.
Hi there
I've just completed a lovely slideshow script on my homepage. It works great in Firefox, but doesn't display at all in IE. It's on a live test page he http://www.modern-wedding-ideas.co.uk/index2.html I'm sure I'm just missing something really simple. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, this is a copy and paste job: I'm a newbie to javascript! So please be gentle. Many thanks Nicola Similar TutorialsHi all I'm having trouble with my XML news feed being displayed in IE. The JS calls the XML, and displays the relevent data on the homepage. This works beautifully in firefox, but fails completely in IE, what am I doing wrong? The Code for the script follows, and is contained within the <head> of the the HTML; Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var xmlDoc; <!-- if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { xhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else // Internet Explorer 5/6 { xhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xhttp.open("GET","SDS.xml",false); xhttp.send(""); xmlDoc=xhttp.responseXML; var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("NEWS"); i=0; function display() { title=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("TITLE")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue.fontsize("5").fontcolor("white").bold()); date=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("DATE")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue.fontsize("2").fontcolor("white").bold()); stitle=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("STITLE")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue.fontsize("3").fontcolor("white").italics()); story=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("STORY")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue.fontsize("3").fontcolor("white")); pic=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("PIC")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue); document.getElementById("picture2").innerHTML="<img src=" + pic + " />"; txt= title + "<br />" + date + "<br />" + stitle + "<br />" + story; document.getElementById("show").innerHTML=txt; } //--> </script> In FF, the XML is read, and the corresponding data is entered automatically into the HTML document. Everything works perfectly. In IE, nothing seems to happen, no text is displayed and the image is just the broken link icon. I assume I need to modify my ELSE statement somehow, but have no idea what to do! Unfortunately I cannot provide a link to the webpage, it has not been uploaded as it doesn't work yet. Would really appreciate being told where I've gone wrong so I can correct the code myself.

I am trying to create a difference function which would work out the difference between two numbers. e.g. 14 and 18 I am able to create a function and if statement to find the larger number of a argument but am having trouble writing one to find the difference between two numbers. Iam also confused (i know probably a silly question) but is the operator used the same for this function. Hope people can make sense of that. Thanks, Hi guys, Just a simple question, Since we can't delete object created with document.createElement(), and just let javascript internal garbage collection do the work. I would much appreciate if anybody would advise me, whether we should nullify the object first, for complete deletion by this collector? Thanks for reading, and advising... Hendra. Solved

Cameron Gray I have been given files for my site and would like to know what the following script does or could do ? Code: function parseScript(_source) { var source = _source; var scripts = new Array(); // Strip out tags while(source.indexOf("<script") > -1 || source.indexOf("</script") > -1) { var s = source.indexOf("<script"); var s_e = source.indexOf(">", s); var e = source.indexOf("</script", s); var e_e = source.indexOf(">", e); // Add to scripts array scripts.push(source.substring(s_e+1, e)); // Strip from source source = source.substring(0, s) + source.substring(e_e+1); } // Loop through every script collected and eval it for(var i=0; i<scripts.length; i++) { try { eval(scripts[i]); } catch(ex) { window.execScript(scripts[i]); } } return source; } this is one of the calls to this script I found in the other site files.

Hi all, The following code is an assigment.I have it running with out any errors.It has to take the array (arrayToshuffle) and through running though the end of the (arrayToshuffle) the string has to be shuffled.We havent learnmt shuffle() yet.) I think the problem is these lines. arrayToShuffle[index]=arrayToShuffle[swapIndex]; arrayToShuffle[swapIndex]=arrayToShuffle[index]; But no matter what varibles I put in these lines and how much i fiddle I carnt seem to get it to run without repeating the same elements in the output. I dont want anyone to fix it for me just advise on where I could look for problems. Am i missing somthing here? Heres the program if you run it you will see what I mean. <html> <head> <script> var arrayToShuffle = new Array('Ace','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','10','Jack','Queen','King'); var arraySize = arrayToShuffle.length; document.write('<h1>Array shuffling</h1>'); document.write('<p>Before shuffle: '+arrayToShuffle+'</p>'); SWAPS_TO_MAKE = 30; var index=0; var self_swaps=0; var counter = 0; while(counter < SWAPS_TO_MAKE) { var swapIndex = Math.floor(Math.random()*arraySize+1); arrayToShuffle[index]=arrayToShuffle[swapIndex]; arrayToShuffle[swapIndex]=arrayToShuffle[index]; if(index =swapIndex) { self_swaps++; } counter++; index = (index+1 % arraySize); } document.write('<p>After shuffle: '+arrayToShuffle+'</p>'); document.write('<ul>'); document.write('<li>Swaps made: '+SWAPS_TO_MAKE+'</li>'); document.write('<li>Self swaps: '+self_swaps+'</li>'); document.write('<li>Effective swaps: '+(SWAPS_TO_MAKE-self_swaps)+'</li>'); document.write('<li>Effective rate: '+((SWAPS_TO_MAKE-self_swaps)/SWAPS_TO_MAKE)+'</li>'); document.write('</ul>'); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> Thanks heaps Shayne Darcy Hi all, I have just stated university a few weeks ago and have never programmed before.I am really stuck on this assigment .In the programm you have to enter you date of birth throught prompt (22).then your year of birth (yyyy),then your month (nov).

I added sorttable.js to the file and you could then sort based on the header. However, our head coach wanted it to be sorted onLoad by player number (first column) so I added datatable and set aasorting to 0, asc and it actually sorts the second column (name) instead of column 1. No matter which column I set it to it only sorts the name column. If I could get some advice about how to fix this I would appreciate it. Code: <style type="text/css">table.sortable th:not(.sorttable_sorted):not(.sorttable_sorted_reverse):not(.sorttable_nosort):after { content: " \25B4\25BE" } </style> <script src="/jscript/sorttable.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('#roster').dataTable( { "aaSorting": [[ 0, "asc" ]] } ); } );</script> <table width="100%" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" border="1" class="sortable" id="roster" style="border-bottom:1"> <thead> <tr> <?php if( ! empty($vars['sport']->field_sport_show_number) && 1 == $vars['sport']->field_sport_show_number['und'][0]['value'] ): ?> <th class="style4, sortBy" style="width: 14px;" data-sortType="numeric" id="number"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">#</span></th> <?php endif; ?> <th class="style4" style="width: 14px;" ><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Name</span></th> <?php if( ! empty($vars['sport']->field_show_class) && 1 == $vars['sport']->field_show_class['und'][0]['value'] ): ?> <th class="style4" style="width: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetic Hya, I've been trying to get a marquee working for my site, and would like it to use an external file for the text that it scrolls. Currently nothing is showing up except for a little space where it should be that is only visible when I highlight the page by selecting edit>select all I have used the script avaliable here but instead of inserting the script into the body I have put it into an external .js my script is the same as theirs except I have made the links point to my documents instead of the samples they gave, however I will paste it here incase I have managed to delete one vital full stop or something. Code: <IE:Download ID="marqueedata" STYLE="behavior:url(#default#download)" /> <marquee id="externalmarquee" direction=up scrollAmount=4 style="width:200px;height:150px;border:1px solid black;padding:3px" onmouseover="this.scrollAmount=2" onmouseout="this.scrollAmount=4" src="News.htm"> </marquee> <script language="Javascript1.2"> function downloaddata(){ marqueedata.startDownload(externalmarquee.src,displaydata) } function displaydata(data){ externalmarquee.innerHTML=data } if (document.all) window.onload=downloaddata </script> <![endif]--> I'm guessing it's because I have incorrectly moved the code from inside the HTML to the external .js. My website is avaliable here And the code I have used to insert this into the HTML (which I have a feeling is the problem) is as follows: Code: <div> <script type="text/javascript" src="/News.js"> </script> </div> Cheers, Al |
