JavaScript - Help With Playing Html5 Audio With Javascript

Hi, I worked on this website : http://www.kesslercareers.com/index.html and cannot find out why it does not work in IE while it works in other browsers. The small video does not play while the sound does. As far as I can see it works fine in FF and Chrome. Anybody any idea?

Thanks

Hi,

I have a webpage that needs to play a different mp3 file each day of the month from a javascript controlled html5 audio tag. I have the files on the server, and each filename ends with a number 1 through 31 (filename30.mp3, filename31.mp3 etc.).

Because javascript can easily give me the date for each day, how can I insert this date like... src="filename[date].mp3" within the audio tag? Inserting a date with javascript is easy for text on a webpage, but I am not sure how to produce this in html code that is yet to be rendered.

Here is the relevant portion of the html that I need the date to be inserted into:

Code:

<audio src="filename[need date here].mp3" id="audio"></audio>
<input type="range" step="any" id="seekbar"></input>

Many thanks for any help!

Hi, I need some help with playing sounds with javascript.

What I need:
When the user clicks the button it will run the function and play a sound either from the source or embedded into the website(which ever way works).

Thanks alot!

Hi there,

Not sure what sub category this falls under sorry, but I have an issue changing a table based menu to a css based menu.

This has been done however the javascript code no only partly works, I would like for it to completely work and am not sure whether I should use aspanel or <div> tags to get it to work as I have tried both and neather seem to work so there is something i am obviously missing!

here is the javascript:
Code:

$(function() {
    $('#mainCategories a').live('click', function() {
        $.ajax({
            type: "GET",
            contentType: "text/html; charset=utf-8",
            dataType: "html",
            url: "/ajax/menu.aspx?CategoryId=" + this.name,
            cache: false,
            success: function(newMenu) {
                $("#left-menu-control").replaceWith(newMenu);
                $('html, body').animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, 'slow');
            }
        });
        return false;
    });

    $('#left-menu-collapse-category').live('click', function() {
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        contentType: "text/html; charset=utf-8",
        dataType: "html",
        url: "/ajax/menu.aspx",
        cache: false,
        success: function(newMenu) {
            $("#left-menu-control").replaceWith(newMenu);
        }
    });
    return false;
    });
});

and here is the page code:
Code:

<div id="menu-left">

<asp:Panel ID="pnlLeftMenuControl" runat="server">
	
	<asp:Panel ID="pnlCategories" runat="server">

hi I am trying to play a video from youtube. What I have done so far is getting videos from my database and displaying all those videos thumbnails. So now what i want is to when i click any thumbnail it should play that video in my website. How can I do this?

Here is my code
Code:

function showResult(result) {
        $('#videosLoader').css('display','none');
            var videoId = result.split(" ");
            for(i = 0; i < videoId.length - 1; i++) {
            var vidId = $.trim(videoId[i]);
            vidLink = getScreen(vidId,"small");
            $('#videosList').append("<div class='playVid'>" + 
                                        "<img width=80 height=80 src=" + vidLink + " alt='' /> " + 
                                        "<input type='hidden' name='vidId' value='" + vidId + "' />" + 
                                    "</div>").addClass("playVid");
    }
    
    $('.playVid').click(function() {
        var val = $("input[name='vidId']").val();
        alert("val");
        $("#haveYourDefinition").append("<embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/" + val + "&rel=1' pluginspage='http://adobe.com/go/getflashplayer' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' quality='high' width='450' height='376' bgcolor='#ffffff' loop='false'></embed>");
    });

When I click any thumbnail it does nothing. Why and please tell me how to do this? Help

I am new to javascript (I started learning it today) so please explain it for newbies.

I am trying to get the amount of video (in seconds) buffered already by the client and the whole duration of the video.

Then, I divide them to get the precentage which was buffered so far.

I have no problem storing the durating using:
Code:

var duration = document.getElementById('vid').duration

- returns "12.6" (seconds)


I am struggling with getting the buffered time. I tried:
Code:

var buffered = document.getElementById('vid').buffered

This one returns "[object TimeRanges]".
From what I understood this is some kind of an object (Like an array?).
I tried returning "buffered.length" and I get "1" back.

Please explain how I can do this. thanks

I have a code that will randomly select a div from a list and inside of that div i want there to be a sound file. How would I use html5 and javascript to make it so that when a user clicks a button it would play whatever sound was associated with that button?


Code:

<div id="randomdiv1" class="article_example_div">
<embed src="Black Hawk Down - Music Video - Riot.mp3" width=25 height=25 autostart=false repeat=true loop=true></embed>
</div>

Hello,

I am coding a slider for my portfolio which has divs that slide when you click either the arrow keys or the numbers below the slider's frame. I just can't figure out how to change the javascript/css file so that the current slide number, (the little numbers below the image), becomes a different color when you actively view it, so that it indicates to users number they're currently on.

Thanks for help!

Here's a draft of what it looks like so far in the front end with my grids still in place:



HTML file:
Code:

<div id="slider" class="span-24 last">
            
                <div id="slide2Left"> &larr;</div>
                    <div id="slideFrame">
                        <div id="slideBoard">
                          <!-- the slides -->
                            <div class="slidePoint">
                             Slide 1 Goes Here
                            </div>
                            <div class="slidePoint">
                             Slide 2 Goes Here
                            </div>
                            <div class="slidePoint">
                             Slide 3 Goes Here
                            </div>
                          <!-- end slideBoard -->

                        <div id="slideReference"></div>
                    <!-- end slideFrame -->
                    </div>
<div id="slide2Right" class="last"> &rarr;</div>

On all my html 5 pages of http://www.countyfairgrounds.net I have a drop down javascript menu for selecting a state. The thing has worked for years fine. However in switching to html5 the validator will not validate it. The are saying the option tag is obsolete. First I don't java, I do html5 and css3 currently. Ca anyonepoint me to a script dropdown that I can cut and paste - that will validate?

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this question. I get confused about what forum to post a question in with regards to DHTML technologies since they are all frequently used together. Anyhoo, heres my question.

I've recently discovered an interesting behavior. When I mouse over a nested element it triggers the 'onmouseout' event handler of the parent element. Take the following code snippet, for instance:

Code:

 <table>
    <tr>
        <td onmouseout="window.alert('you moused out of td');">
            <img src="image0.gif" style="height:50px; width:50px;" />
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

In the code snippet above, the 'onmouseout' event handler executes when you mouse over the image nested inside the <td> element.
I wouldn't have thought this would be the appropriate behavior since from my perspective the mouse is still inside the <td> element. Can someone make comments on this. Thank You.

Edit: I've discovered that mousing over a nested element causes both an 'onmouseout' and an 'onmouseover' event for the parent element. They are called back to back. Seems a little bit of an odd sequence of events but maybe it makes sense in the grand scheme of things. Yeah, right.

Hi everyone,

I am trying to make an image mask using javascript. The basic idea is that the image on the canvas will appear as a black box. When the user hovers over the image a small part of it is revealed.

I have attached a picture as an example because its quite hard to explain!

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks, Luke
