JavaScript - Going To Specific Url, Then Coming Back And Refreshing
While these questions have probably been asked before, separately, I'd like to know how to put them together.
What I want to do, is create a link, that goes to an url that I decide, after which, the page goes back to the previous page and refreshes. It would be ideal, if that could be done with AJAX, but that's probably asking too much. Especially if I want to use it for wordpress. Similar TutorialsAnother thing that has been driving me crazy is that css positioning is handled differently by different browsers. JS is not my area, but I can do a lot with CSS, and I do, but cross browser compatibility is killing me. I can use an IF IE statement and only IE runs that segment of code, but I haven't been able to figure out out how to make ONLY firefox or ONLY opera or safari enact an encapsulated segment of code. The same type of IF statement doesn't work for them. Is there a single method using JS that works for all browsers? Thre is probably a very simple answer and I am just missing it somehow. Hello, I wonder if someone could help me with this? I want to include a flights search box on a website I'm building and they have given me some JavaScript to produce it. Test page: http://gercia.co.uk/js.html I want to customise the search box but can't see where the css is contained. Can anyone point it out for me?

Code: var initialPrice; var age; var halfPrice; initialPrice = window.prompt('Please enter the advertised price of the holiday in pounds', ''); initialPrice = parseFloat(initialPrice); age = window.prompt('Please enter age of holidaymaker', ''); age = parseFloat(age); halfPrice = initialPrice/2; if (age <= 5} { document.write('Your holiday is Free'); } else if (age < 15) { document.write('Your holdiday is ' + halfPrice + ''); } else { document.write('Your holiday is ' + initialPrice + ''); } </SCRIPT> Really have no idea why i't wont run.. it's really bugging me as I believe it will be something simple and I just need to know what so I remeber it for next time, any help is MAJORLY appreciated and the sooner the better :) Thanks James (yes i saw the one asking about the same question pretty much a few posts down haha) basically I have some programming doing delphi and pascal and im mixing them up with my very very limited javascript... hence why I think i messed something up.... everything seems to be ok ... but the prompts wont come up or anything.... all the var's match up so what am I doing wrong :( also couple of rules.... im assuming the people inputting are using valid numbers (dont need a check) no need to check for sensible values either dont worry about decimal places (basically the stuff like it checking is for a different part of the assignment that I am doing which i can do by myself if i get this actually working...) hey friend i am trying to use automatic html input creation using java script for my new project .... my problem is the field "type propositon 1:is it answer? ignore this one:" not come into input variable such as $_POST['prop1'] i used PHP Code: pint_r($_POST) and the result was Code: Array ( [radio1] => on [cid] => 65 [desc] => dfdfdfdfd [submit] => Submit ) why my javascript created input field come into role? my php html code is PHP Code: <table> <form action="new.php" method="post"> <tr><td> question type:<br /> True or False:<input type="radio" name="radio1"> Objective:<input type="radio" name="radio2"> Other:<input type="radio" name="radio3" > </td></tr> <textarea name="desc" rows="6" cols="35" ></textarea> <br /> <a href="javascript:add()" ><b>add proposition</b></a> <div id="cat"></div> <div id="num" style="display:none;"></div> <br> </table> and the java script is ...

Code: <button type="button" onclick="showme();">Lets test this out</button> * * * var myselect=document.getElementById("pathPicking"); The Code above was a different way i wrote my code (when I wasn't passing anything too the showme function) Code: <html> <body> <form id="aform"> <select id="pathPicking" size="1"> <option value="nothing" selected="selected">Select a location</option> <option value="\\\\mycomputer">\\mycomputer</option> <option value="F:">F: Drive</option> <option value="R:">R: Drive</option> </select> </form> <button type="button" onclick="showme(document.getElementById('pathPicking'));">Lets test this out</button> <script type="text/javascript"> function showme(myselect) { document.write("enter showme function <BR />"); document.write("<BR /> " + myselect); document.write("<BR /> " + myselect.options.length); for (var i=0; i<myselect.options.length; i++) { if (myselect.options[i].selected==true) { alert("Selected Option's index: "+i) break } } document.write("<BR />leaving function"); }; </script> </body> </html> I have a dataTable in which on the keyup event, the cursor focuses to the next field. In IE7, after a field, the next field is not coming into the view. Please help. The occField(2nd attachment) comes into view only after focus moves to next field, i.e LTD Buy up. Code: if (currId.indexOf("Occ") >= 0) { if(stdBuyUpSelected){ autoTabFocus("SBuy",index); }else if(ltdBuyUpSelected){ autoTabFocus("LBuy",index); } else if (isStateZipDisp){ autoTabFocus("Zp",index); } } function autoTabFocus(next,index) { var focusElem = document.getElementById(next+index); if (focusElem != null) { focusElem.focus(); } } I have a form that I am using for several different pages as they are exactly the same... however at the top you must make a choice from the drop down box that then shows the appropriate fields to fill in. Can I make the drop down default to a certain option depending on which page they are coming from? <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en" > <title>Assignment 5 - JavaScript Loops</title> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function getGrade(){ var i= Number(document.getElementById("input1").value); m=Math.floor(i/2); for(var k=1; k<=i; k++){ for(var j=1; j<=k; j++){ document.write(j+" "); if(j==k){ document.write("\n"); } if(j==i){ decreaseLoop(j, k); } } } function decreaseLoop(j, k){ for(k=k-1; k>0; k--){ for(var l=1; l<=k; l++){ document.write(l+" "); if(l==k){ document.write("\n"); } } } } } </script> <style type="text/css"> #main{ margin:auto; width:70%; } #top{ font-size:20px; font-weight:bolder; color:#007700; text-decoration:underline; } #s1{ font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color:#7700ff; } #s2{ font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color:#00ff00; } #s3{ font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color:#ff0000; } #form1{ width:600px; height:80px; padding:20px; background-color:#aaaaaa; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="main"> <p id="top">Assignment 5 - JavaScript Loops</p> <span id=s1>This is Form for checking Loop</span> <form id=form1 name=form1> <table> <tr><td>Enter Number </td><td>: <input type="text" id=input1 name="input1" /></td></tr> <tr><td><input type="button" name=btn1 value="Get Number" onclick=getGrade() /></td></tr> </table> </form> </div> </body> </html> When I execute this code, on the screen I see all output in one line.

Thanks hers the site i am working onhttp://merucabs.com/cabvertise as you can see on this page. there are two main div(left,right) when a user clicks a link on left div accordingly an external page is loaded in the right div problem is when you click a link in IE the entire page is refreshed.

Here's the link to script that i have used http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...tent/index.htm I am a music geek. I am also a Javascripter who doesn't know much, but enough to get around the language. Anyways, I wrote a script to construct chords to make writing music easier for me. The script works, it shows there are no errors, and it does what I want it to do, but the page keeps refreshing almost immediately after the Alert box goes away. I have no idea whats going on. I don't know if it's the JS or the HTML part of the page. If you have any ideas that would be great.

Then i modify the html i get to suit my needs.. save it to a file, and then finally, i display this stuff in an IFRAME. (i wrapped a div tag around the iframe so technically, i'm doing something like: "divtabframe.innerHTML = '<IFRAME SRC='myserver/somepage.html'></IFRAME>) My problem is that when i refresh the main page, i want the iframe to also display the latest data. It does get the latest data from the external site and its saved in "somepage.html". But the iframe isn't updated unless i explicitly right-click inside the frame and manually select refresh. I have added a <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30"> line to make it auto refresh on it's own. But the users find it annoying that the page refreshes while they're working on it. They prefer to have their own button that will refresh both the main page that gets the data, and the iframe to read the new file. I tried to use document.getElementById(FrameID).contentDocument.location.reload(true); in various spots but it's not happy. i keep getting an error message that the object is null or doesn't exist. I also tried using contentWindow instead of contentDocument. made no difference. Any ideas? My URL is: http://localhost/testproject/product.html#catId=155 I want to URL: http://localhost/testproject/product.html without refreshing the page. Is this possible using javascript/jquery or not ? I'm using this code to force a PHP form to redirect. I already inserted a header for PHP and for whatever reason it's not working. This code works like a dream in Firefox, but it continuously loops in IE and makes it impossible to enter anything into the PHP form <body onload="javascript: self.location.href = 'index.html';"> </body> Does anyone know how to make this code not refresh IE literally every second? Thanks. I embedded the following into my blog; Code: <br><script language="javascript" src="http://www.quotedb.com/quote/quote.php?action=random_quote&=&=&"></script> <br> It works fine, but I'm trying to find a way to refresh only the script on my blog, instead of having to reload the entire page. Coding a refresh button, for instance. How would I go about doing this? Thank you in advance. Hi, Im not sure if im going about this the right way but what I'm trying to achieve is to have my webpage seperated into two main div's. The first div contains a media player so it cant be refreshed or the media stops. The second div is used to view content. I've used innerHTML to change the content of the second div from links in the first. The problem is the URL displayed doesn't reflect the change in content of the second div. I want to be able to load content into the second div using innerHTML while changing the URL so people can link directly to that content. Any help or alternative ideas are greatly apprectiated. Thanks. D.I.C Head ** Joined: 29 Jan, 2009 Posts: 94 Thanked: 1 times My Contributions Hello, I am teaching myself javascript and in the course of my experimentation have run into this roadblock: I want to display a styled navigation bar with a button beneath it. When the button is clicked, an onclick event will be triggered and the response of the browser should be to print the word "test" right beneath the button. However, what actually happens is the page blanks out and the word 'test' appears in the upper left corner of the screen. I'm hoping someone would be kind enough to fix this code and explain to me where I've gone wrong here.

Hi, In page load of an asp.net, I am creating some dynamic checkboxes.. How can I use the javascript to refresh these checkboxes without loading the whole page? Regards, batool Hello! I have been designing a schedule website which will be displayed on several computers throughout the building, I would like to be able to edit the JS during the day but I do not want to be going all through the building refreshing every computer to make sure it has the latest JS version. I also do not want use the meta HTML tag to refresh because that is too noticeable with the images reloading. Basically I would like to only refresh the JS file. I found this link, but it has a button which defeats the purpose. Any way of doing this without the button? FYI, I have the javascript setTimeout("driver()",1000); already so that the clock stays up to date. Not sure if that will make things easier or more complicated... EDIT: not sure why the ICODE tags are not working EDIT 2: Forgot the website! http://www.philnicholas.com/2009/05/...ing-your-page/ Hey everyone, I'm just trying to figure out if it is possible to swap the pages background image when a button is clicked without refreshing the page? I've looked around and can't really find anything helpful. Any tips or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated Thanks YD Hello, First post here. I have the need to create a popup after a delay. The problem I'm getting is that the parent page is refreshing automatically from the action of creating the popup. I don't want the parent page to refresh! This is what I currently have: Code: $popupScript = ' <script language="JavaScript"> setTimeout("window.open(\'index.php?do=renew\',\'Popup1\',\'toolbar=0, width=500, height=500\')",' . $delay . '); </script>'; The page is in php, so that's why I have it as a string, which I later pass to a template page. This would simply be: Code: <script language="JavaScript"> setTimeout("window.open('index.php?do=renew','Popup1','toolbar=0, width=500, height=500')",6000); </script> ... if it was placed straight into the HTML. Incidentally, it's included into the HTML HEAD area, not the body, as the original source of the script suggested: http://www.itechies.net/tutorials/js...op-delayed.htm $delay is the delay before the popup opens, in microseconds (so 6000 would be 6 seconds). What can I do to have the same delayed auto-popup functionality, but without it automatically refreshing the parent page where the above code resides? As some background to what I'm achieving: The issue with not wanting the parent page to refresh is that each time it does, the login session gets extended. The popup itself (which I already have working ok) provides a 'continue working' function, or close and refresh the parent is nothing has been done after a short period. Any help very welcome. |
