JavaScript - Javascript Flash Detection And Replace

Greetings,

I am currently using the websites tutorial about browser detection using the navigator.

http://www.javascriptkit.com/javatutors/navigator.shtml

I am however finding myself unable to detect a pattern in order to learn from.

My aim is to use Browser detection to have a CSS file for each browser type, such as Firefox, IE, Opera, Safari and then an overall CSS file if none of the above, to fix numerous flaws.

For IE and Firefox using the site's code is all well and good and while I haven't tested it yet I'm wondering how to set up the coding so that it can detect a safari browser.

There are lots of slashes and d's and brackets and I do find myself unable to understand their purpose.

So if someone can explain how I could do it for Safari I would be very appreciative.

document.write(str.replace(/(\+|\(|\)|.|-|\/ /g,''));

feeble attempt to remove '.' '(' ')' ' ' '-' '/'and '+'

Code:

s = s.replace(/\[code\](.*?)\[\/code\]/gi,'<span class="code">$1</span>');

This works as expected, but what I'm trying to do is replace the content within the tags with a santized version of what was in it before.

Example

Code:

function clean(str){
//clean up string stuff here
return str;
}

s = s.replace(/\[code\](.*?)\[\/code\]/gi,'<span class="code">'+clean('$1')+'</span>');

But as with everything in life it's never that easy, it's simply passing "$1" to the clean function instead of what was actually within the code tags.

Can anyone tell me how I'd go about doing this?

I'm currently working at school on a website and I cycled through aloooot of tutorials, but I couldn't find anything >.<
so the qeustion is how to make a VERY simple javascript div tag replacer using buttons.
so if I click for example button 1 then I want div tag 1 replaced with div tag 2 and when you press button 2 div tag 1 or 2 gets replaced with div tag 3.
the closest tutorial I found was: Replace one div with another

Hi I am wondering if it is possible to replace a rating form with some sort of javascript star rating system that would submit the same way? Here is my current form:

<form method=post action="%%%SCRIPT_URL%%%">
<input type=hidden name=main value="imageRate">
<input type=hidden name=file value="%%%FILENAME%%%">
<input type=hidden name=category value="%%%DIRECTORY%%%">
<select name=rate size=1>
<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
<option>3</option>
<option>4</option>
<option>5</option>
<option>6</option>
<option>7</option>
<option>8</option>
<option>9</option>
<option>10</option>
</select>&nbsp;<input type=submit value="Rate This!">
</form>

Right now it is a drop down menu and I would like to replace with a php, javascript, or ajax rating script that can keep the same properties. Any advice?

I was debugging my code looking for a loop. So in the process I added a confirm request and if the user clicked cancel I coded location.replace("Kill.html"). Problem was that the JAVASCRIPT continued to run until either it finished or I used the Task Manager to end the session. There3 was a small difference in browsers: Firefox put up the new screen while continuing to run the JAVASCRIPT while IE didn't put up the new screen until after the JAVASCRIPT was finished. I could tell the JAVASCRIPT was still running because the confirm messages kept popping up.

Greetings,

I am having trouble finding any examples to help me strip everything up to a certain character (the hypen) in a url.

Hypothetical example below, as I only know how to accomplish this using a literal only for one url at a time but I need this for changing urls:


Code:

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
var temp = new String('http://www.site.com/abc_123_abc_-1379820930');
temp = temp.replace("http://www.site.com/abc_123_abc_-", '');
document.write(temp);
//--></script>

And I am hoping to be left with the series of numbers on the end. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have a js replace function to replace text next to two radio buttons on a pre set form.

Script is as follows.
Code:

document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(
    "Payment by <b>Moneybookers</b> e-wallet<br>", ""
);
document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(
    "Maestro, Visa and other credit/debit cards by <b>Moneybookers</b>",
    "Pago con Diners Club, Mastercard o Visa"
);

The script works fine in Chrome and Firefox, however, the script is not actioned in Explorer.

I believe it has something to do with there being , / - within the text I am replacing? When I use the function to replace text with no , / - in the text - it works fine in explorer, however, for example when I try to replace text.. - "Maestro, Visa and other credit/debit cards by Moneybookers" this does not work in explorer.. I'm assuming because of the coma and forward slash. Honestly I've tried everything but just can not get this to work. I have no access to the HTML table where the form is posted this is why I am attempting this funtion. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

This is driving me nuts

I need to replace all instances of "zz" with 'Z'. I can easily replace other strings such as

a = a.replace(/mickeymouse/, "Z");

but

a = a.replace(/zz/, "Z");

doesn't work. Must be a double characer thing?

Hi there,

A client of mine has asked me to change a flash component on his website to something that will work on the ipad/iphone etc. So my guess is that a javascript created slideshow would do the trick. Check out what I am meaning on this page:

http://www.it-world.com.au/

It's the flash with "Our Services" "Our Products" "Contact" in it.

Can anyone suggest a very easy javascript that I could manipulate to give this same scrolling effect on the click of a link. It needs to be very easy to make changes to as I have no js skills whatsoever other than copying, pasting and making minor changes to obvious pieces of script.

hope someone can help!

Thanks,
Ross

I'm not too familiar with javascript and usually do most of my animation/linking with flash. However my client does not want flash because it can't be displayed on the iPhone. If you go he

http://www.hosthabitat.com/think/bb2/index.html you will see a menu on the left that starts to scroll through the buttons while showing different images on the right. But if you hover over any button it stops on that image. The buttons are then linked to individual pages.

I attempted to try and replicate this technique he

http://www.hosthabitat.com/think/bb2/index_test.html

However I am not sure how to write or modify my script so that it scrolls through the photos like my flash version does. Any help!!! I'm stuck!

Hi,
I'm currently working on a Flash pop-up that can be integrated in several websites. I'm currently testing the code. I've got a flash file with a semi-transparant background that loads over the complete page, it also closes the div with the flash content once the end of the swf is reached.

The thing is, I want to prevent the user from scrolling whilst the swf is active. That's why I disabled the overflow-Y.

Now I've got a javascript code that is supposed to change the body's overflow to visible again, and I'm calling to this code in the same frame as where I disable the div with the flash in it.

But for some reason it isn't working.

This is my complete Javascript code:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- Original: Gregor (legreg@legreg.de) -->
<!-- This script and many more are available free online at -->
<!-- The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com -->

var ie4 = (document.all) ? true : false;
var ns4 = (document.layers) ? true : false;
var ns6 = (document.getElementById && !document.all) ? true : false;


function hidelayer(lay) {
  if (ie4) {document.all[lay].style.visibility = "hidden";}
  if (ns4) {document.layers[lay].visibility = "hide";}
  if (ns6) {document.getElementById([lay]).style.display = "none";}
}

function writetolayer(lay,txt) {
  if (ie4) {
    document.all[lay].innerHTML = txt;
  }
  if (ns4) {
    document[lay].document.write(txt);
    document[lay].document.close();
  }
  if (ns6) {
    over = document.getElementById([lay]);
    range = document.createRange();
    range.setStartBefore(over);
    domfrag = range.createContextualFragment(txt);
    
     while (over.hasChildNodes()) {
      over.removeChild(over.lastChild);
    }
     over.appendChild(domfrag);
  }
}


<!-- This is the part I added which I thought would show the scrollbar again after the flashpopup is finished -->
function showbar(){
	document.getElementsByName('body')[0].style.overflowY = 'visible';
}

</script>

And in the final frame of my flash animation I first stop the swf, and then call to both functions:

//stops the movie
stop();

//this is the code that triggers the function to hide the div, and the function that should show the scrollbar

getURL("javascript:showbar();");
getURL("javascript:hidelayer('newlayer');");


I've also got an online webtest he
http://www.haragara.com/banner_test/

And I've included all the files in a zip

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

is there javascript i can use to keep certain tabs open on a flash drop down menu?

Is it possible to use GetVariable() on a variable outside the Main scene timeline?

Im trying to get a variable that is set on "sprite 479" that is gonna run on frame #2.. the variable name is "myVariable"

Code:

function getElement()
{
  var FlashArr = document.getElementsByName('myFlash');
  return FlashArr[FlashArr.length-1];
}

alert(getElement().GetVariable("myVariable"));

I can only get variables located on the MainMovie sprite.

Thank you.
