JavaScript - Frame Auto Refresh - Where To Start?
Hey helpful people.
I'm looking for a better solution to refreshing a page of mine, which currently single page (no frames) using meta refresh. To convert it something where it (using frames) would either: a. keep trying to refresh untill a var is recieved from the content, or b. present the browser with a button to refresh and a message that loading failed. But honestly i am a noob at javascript, to an extend i dont have much idea where to start on such a project. but learned this is not possible with regular html that is widely supported anyways. i suspect the:.. window.xx.location='url' ..is useful in this regard, but other than that i am blank on where to start. Any help is appresiated. Thanks in advance Jilli Similar TutorialsHey guys, I am new at JavaScript, but I have been able to piece together some code for a stopwatch. I have everything the way I want it in regards to the function and look of the stopwatch, but I want to be able to set timers so that the ss() function in the code below will go and stop automatically at intervals I can set. I just can't seem to get there with this one and any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

I have a small compose email window that appears via ajax when the user clicks on a name. Is there a way I can disable the screen refresh in my ajax code while they are composing their message? I currently have this on my companies website and it's having a bit of trouble sometimes where it will only work after a refresh. Is it possible to do a refresh of this div and script as soon as the site loads, instead of using the auto refresh. I tried using auto refresh and it works but whatever time interval I put for the auto refresh is the time that the script pops up, so it kind of just makes it worst. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $("#twitter").getTwitter({ userName: "lubellrosen", numTweets: 4, loaderText: "Loading Events...", slideIn: true, slideDuration: 750, showHeading: false, headingText: "Latest Tweets", showProfileLink: false, showTimestamp: false }); }); </script> I have a web page that loads and Auto scrolls to the end. I need to either auto scroll up, or when it reaches the bottom auto refreshes back to the top. I have had to define a length longer than the document or I get scroll bars and the Iframe won't scroll.

Hello, I am fairly new to Javascript, but so far I have managed to have the page auto scroll when you browse. I was also able to get a button that toggles the start/stop of the scrolling. What I need to happen is when the scrolling reaches the bottom of the screen, I need it to refresh. Is this possible? Thank you in advance!!! A noob needs some help. I'm using a combination of Yahoo Pipes and rssdisplayer.js to display some snippets from several RSS feeds on a new site I'm building. The trouble I'm having is that (i) the feeds don't update when I refresh the page, I think because a cached version of the page is being loaded, and (ii) I'd like to have the div containing the feeds auto-refresh at a given time interval. I've got a Twitter javascript working that does both these things, but can't work out how to get the rssdisplayer.js working this way. The rssdisplayer code is: Code: google.load("feeds", "1") //Load Google Ajax Feed API (version 1) function rssdisplayer(divid, url, feedlimit, showoptions){ this.showoptions=showoptions || "" //get string of options to show ("date" and/or "description") var feedpointer=new google.feeds.Feed(url) //create new instance of Google Ajax Feed API feedpointer.setNumEntries(feedlimit) //set number of items to display document.write('<div id="'+divid+'">Loading feed...</div>') this.feedcontainer=document.getElementById(divid) var displayer=this feedpointer.load(function(r){displayer.formatoutput(r)}) //call Feed.load() to retrieve and output RSS feed } rssdisplayer.prototype.formatdate=function(datestr){ var itemdate=new Date(datestr) return "<span style='color:gray; font-size: 90%'>"+itemdate.toLocaleString()+"</span>" } rssdisplayer.prototype.formatoutput=function(result){ if (!result.error){ //if RSS feed successfully fetched var thefeeds=result.feed.entries //get all feed entries as a JSON array var rssoutput="<ul>" for (var i=0; i<thefeeds.length; i++){ //loop through entries var itemtitle="<a href=\"" + thefeeds[i].link + "\">" + thefeeds[i].title + "</a>" var itemdate=/date/i.test(this.showoptions)? this.formatdate(thefeeds[i].publishedDate) : "" var itemdescription=/description/i.test(this.showoptions)? "<br />"+thefeeds[i].content : "" rssoutput+="<li>" + itemtitle + " " + itemdate + itemdescription + "</li>" } rssoutput+="</ul>" this.feedcontainer.innerHTML=rssoutput } else //else, output error alert("Error fetching feeds: "+result.error.message) } //USAGE SYNTAX: new rssdisplayer("divid", "rssurl", numberofitems, "displayoptions") //new rssdisplayer("adiv", "http://www.cssdrive.com/index.php/news/rss_2.0/", 5, "date, description") If you go to a Youtube video by Justin Bieber or Rebecca Black, comments are constantly being posted and it seems like the autorefresh for the comments kicks in every half second. I don't plan on having millions of users viewing my page, but still, wouldn't having every user make a [mysql] request to the server every half second really take a toll on the server (especially since I don't plan to ever have the resources that Youtube has)? Facebook also seems to have instantaneous auto-refreshes, be it in comment boxes or their chat interface. So what would be the best method to implement a near-instantaneous autorefresh system with minimal resource usage? I've a web page when a user logs in, it will have a link that shows the "username" and a link for "logout". After the user logs out, the "username" and the "logout" links will change to "login" and "register" links, respectively. The page uses javascript to check a user cookie, if the user cookie exists, it will show the "username" link and the link for "logout". If no user cookie exists, "login" and "register" links will replace the "username" and "logout" links. Here's the problem: When a user who has log in, clicks the "logout" link, a perl script will delete the user cookie, and redirects back to the same page. The page does not show "login" and "register" links AUTOMATICALLY. Both links will appear ONLY after the user MANUALLY Refreshes the page. It appears that I need a system to refresh the page automacally ONLY one time. How can this be done? I'm attaching my php test file but this is a JS problem. When I scroll down in the web page and the meta refresh hits, in Windows Safari and IE6/7/8 browsers, the web page re-positions back to the top. In Opera and FF the page refreshes but it stays where it is. Can someone look at my test script and see why it is not working in IE and Win Safari? My goal is to have the web page not re-position to the top on the auto refresh. Thanks... Most of the Javascript I see has some sort of time limit on page reload and is not really what I am trying to accomplish: Code: <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="10; URL=http://coffeeandtealtd.com/buynow.html" /> I am trying to make our buy page reload after clicking the Paypal "continue shopping" button in Paypal Website Standards. The pop up Paypal shopping cart window closes after clicking the button but our buy page doesn't reload. It doesn't reload in Safari although it seems to be fine in FF and IE. I am new to javascript coding and am not quite sure how to make the page reload in this specific instance only. Any sug's?? I have a php file lets say file1.php, that printing a variable, its dynamic numbers output that already always increasing, like private message numbers that coming or others : PHP Code: <?php echo $variable ?> i want to put that variable output, in another files page title, lets say file2.php or file3.html, in the front of the another files page titles, and auto refresh every x seconds, maybe like this : Quote: (1) - another text in the page title after x seconds, get a private message Quote: (2) - another text in the page title after another x seconds, get another private message Quote: (3) - another text in the page title or its ok if just like this, only the variable, without the another text in the page title Quote: (1) please share your knowledge to make it, maybe using javascript, jquery or others Hi. I have a question about java script code. I'm creating a website with frames. Within the main page frame, there are tables in the main content page. When I created the website, it fit perfectly in the browser window of my smaller laptop. I just checked it out on my old G5 and the images/pages are too big and either cut off or scroll bars appear (which is not what I want) So I wanted to know what code I put in my files and where to put it? Also, what pages does it need to be in? the main frame index page? the specific pages that fit within the frames? some are images that load in the frames? would i need to create an .html for those and then have the .jpg load so that it can be resized? I need the main page to be resized to fit the browser as well as the pages in the frames to fit. Can you help? Thanks I' am trying to do a frame by frame animation, lik an animated gif. I am using svg (vector graphics) and IE9 has native support for svg. The code functions in every other browser but IE9 plays the animation once then nothing. If you would like to try and not have svg files you can use whatever gif,jpg or png just put an img-tag where i have embed.
