JavaScript - Modifying Css Style Of An Id With Javascript
Hi guys, For some reason the following code is not working. Anybody see any issues?
By default the style of #pricea in my stylesheet is visibility="hidden"; Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function arrow(boxName){ document.getElementById(boxName).style.visibility = "visible"; } </script> <?php if($_REQUEST['sort']=="price" && $_REQUEST['order']=="ASC"){ ?> <script type="text/javascript"> arrow('pricea'); </script> <?php }?> Similar TutorialsHi All, I have this javaascript which validates fields on a form, and if one of the fields are empty or 0 it will turn that field red, but it does it individually and i want it to turn all fields that are in error in red at the same time, can someone help me with the below code on how i can accomplish this Code: var inputsToCheck = Array('MainDisplayContentChange_txtTitleContent', 'MainDisplayContentChange_txtDescription', 'MainDisplayContentChange_txtjusitification','MainDisplayContentChange_txtDateRequired'); var obj;0 function formCheck() { for(var i=0;i<inputsToCheck.length;i++) { obj = document.getElementById(inputsToCheck[i]); if (obj.value == "") { obj.style.backgroundColor = "red"; return false } else { return true } } } Im new to javascript so this could be a simple change for someone with more knowledge then my self. the webpage is built with ASP.Net Thanks in Advance I need to know two things. How do you position an alert or prompt to anywhere on the screen. How do you change the font for the alert or prompt (i.e Hebrew) Thanks in advance D.A. hello, I need some help. I created a table that has some drop down boxes and based on the user selection it will show the text on the bottom, the plain drop down box has (nomal/bold/italic/bold-italic) the large drop down box has (large/medium/small) can someone please guide me or provide me a little demo on how to get this working?> thanks Can anyone point out why this might not be working??? In my style sheet I have the span #downarrow display:none; Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function arrow(boxName){ document.getElementById(boxName).style.display = 'block'; } arrow('downarrow'); </script> <span id="downarrow"><img src="http://www.mysite.com/images/downarrow.png" /></span> Thanks!! I have several checkboxes with labels, all laid out in a table. All of the checkboxes have a class of "hide" and through CSS I have them hidden. Then with javascript it's set up so that when a user clicks on the label for the checkbox the background of the TD that contains it changes colors to indicate that that item is selected. Works great except for those browsers that have javascript disabled. Then the form is useless. I'm thinking now it would be better to use javascript to apply the "hide" class to the checkboxes. That way if it's disabled then the checkboxes will still be visible and the form useable. I'm just not sure how to go about doing that (not much of a javascript ninja). Can anyone advise me on how to do that? I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks! This is how this page should work: click on an abbreviation and see player info to the immediate right of the green field. The left-most 'WR' and 'RB' in the upper portion of the field (imagemap) have javascript assigned to them. Click on these to test. So far, I get no player info but I do get this error: 'eleObj.style' is null or not an object Here's part of the html ... is the script call in the right place????

Hi All, I have a web application which has two DIV, one is main and one is child. I am having problem in printing multiple pages. There is a lot of data in the child DIV and i am using JavaScript functions to control the print functionality. When i print using window.print(), only the data on the main page currently being showed is printed. I further researched and checked out the Style.Overflow property. Now i am using divMain.style.overflow = "visible" After this the complete print comes. But in Firefox, the scroll bar disappears and only single page is left with no scroll bar . Now if after print i give divMain.style.overflow = "Auto" OR divMain.style.overflow = "Scroll", still the scroll bar doesn't come and if it comes then its inactive. I am unable to see the complete data on the page after the print is taken. The problem is not coming in I.E and the full data with scroll bar is recovered in I.E. Please help me how to get the normal page with full data and scroll bar after printing in Firefox. I am very new to js. I have a jquery plugin that is a live countdown timer and I would like to modify it. Can someone tell me how to modify the code below so that the date is 20 minutes from right now (currently it is set as 26 January 2013). Code: <script type="text/javascript"> $(function () { var austDay = new Date(); austDay = new Date(austDay.getFullYear() + 1, 1 - 1, 26); $('#defaultCountdown').countdown({until: austDay}); $('#year').text(austDay.getFullYear()); }); </script> Hi, I want to take this redirect script and modify it so that it rotates a banner image instead of sending the user to another page. The script works so that if the window is out of focus for 10 seconds, it redirects. The images are defined in an external style sheet so I guess I'll have to move that into the document. Also, I want it to be able to work more than once with multiple images, like if the user opens a new tab, comes back, goes to a different tab, the image should change twice. Here's the script: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var xScroll, yScroll, timerPoll, timerRedirect, timerClock; function initRedirect(){ if (typeof document.body.scrollTop != "undefined"){ //IE,NS7,Moz xScroll = document.body.scrollLeft; yScroll = document.body.scrollTop; clearInterval(timerPoll); //stop polling scroll move clearInterval(timerRedirect); //stop timed redirect timerPoll = setInterval("pollActivity()",1); //poll scrolling timerRedirect = setInterval("location.href='http://www.google.com",10000); //set timed redirect } else if (typeof window.pageYOffset != "undefined"){ //other browsers that support pageYOffset/pageXOffset instead xScroll = window.pageXOffset; yScroll = window.pageYOffset; clearInterval(timerPoll); //stop polling scroll move clearInterval(timerRedirect); //stop timed redirect timerPoll = setInterval("pollActivity()",1); //poll scrolling timerRedirect = setInterval("location.href='http://www.google.com'",10000); //set timed redirect } //else do nothing } function pollActivity(){ if ((typeof document.body.scrollTop != "undefined" && (xScroll!=document.body.scrollLeft || yScroll!=document.body.scrollTop)) //IE/NS7/Moz || (typeof window.pageYOffset != "undefined" && (xScroll!=window.pageXOffset || yScroll!=window.pageYOffset))) { //other browsers initRedirect(); //reset polling scroll position } } document.onmousemove=initRedirect; document.onclick=initRedirect; document.onkeydown=initRedirect; window.onload=initRedirect; window.onresize=initRedirect; </script> The image is defined in Code: <div id="home" style="background: url(images/banner.png) no-repeat;"></div> I'm thinking I should replace banner.png with a variable or array name that has the image names defined somewhere and using a loop to choose the next image in the array. I took a C++ class but I don't know any JS, sorry for not doing homework. Thanks for reading this I am trying to modify a popup script to popup a lightbox on page load instead of a new window. The script identifies if the user is a new visitor and displays the popup only to new visitors. Typically, the lightbox is triggered by an a:link. I would like to trigger it using this script so that the lightbox pops up automatically for new visitors only. Here is the popup script: Code: <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- function GetCookie(name) { var arg=name+"="; var alen=arg.length; var clen=document.cookie.length; var i=0; while (i<clen) { var j=i+alen; if (document.cookie.substring(i,j)==arg) return "here"; i=document.cookie.indexOf(" ",i)+1; if (i==0) break; } return null; } var visit=GetCookie("COOKIE1"); if (visit==null){ var expire=new Date(); window.name = "thiswin"; newwin=open("http://www.pccmedia.net/P25_60sec.php", "dispwin", "width=350,height=350,scrollbars=yes,menubar=no"); expire=new Date(expire.getTime()+7776000000); document.cookie="COOKIE1=here; expires="+expire; } // --> </SCRIPT> I want to replace the newwin=open... command with something that will trigger the lightbox. The section of the lightbox script that receives the trigger and variables is.... Code: Mediabox.scanPage = function() { // $$('#mb_').each(function(hide) { hide.set('display', 'none'); }); var links = $$("a").filter(function(el) { return el.rel && el.rel.test(/^lightbox/i); }); $$(links).mediabox({/* Put custom options here */}, null, function(el) { var rel0 = this.rel.replace(/[[]|]/gi," "); var relsize = rel0.split(" "); return (this == el) || ((this.rel.length > 8) && el.rel.match(relsize[1])); }); }; window.addEvent("domready", Mediabox.scanPage); An example of the typical HTML tag that triggers the lightbox and feeds the variables is Code: <a href="http://www.pccmedia.net/other/P25_60sec.mp4" rel="lightbox[set 720 405]" title="Project 25" onClick="stop1()"/> The rel=lightbox... is the trigger for the lightbox. The stop1() function refers to a separate script that plays background music on the website. This also needs to be included in the new visitor popup script, but is a separate issue..... I'm not familiar enough with JS to be able to figure this out. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Hi I need to change the font color of the disabled textboxes of our application. These disabled textboxes exist at thousands of places both at pageload or disabled conditionally clientside. I am aware that in IE8 there is no other way to change the fontcolor except use readonly. So i thought that maybe if I changed the .disabled property to something like - Code: Object.disabled { function set() { this.readOnly = value; } function get() { return this.readOnly; } } then it would make my task much easier. I searched and found out that Object.defineProperty ,may do the trick. However i am getting the mull reference error. Is there any other way? I have the following code for an embed that I would like to add to my site. However, the embed is too large for the box I am trying to put it in on my social network. I tried to add height/width parameters, but it did not work. Is there a way to modify the size?

I would like to alter the code if possible so that the dots are in pairs going down the page (I wont bore you with the reason why) ie: o o o o o o o o etc The code the handles the dots is this: Code: // ================== // ! BULLET NAV // ================== //Bullet Nav Setup if(options.bullets) { var bulletHTML = '<ul class="orbit-bullets"></ul>'; orbitWrapper.append(bulletHTML); var bullets = orbitWrapper.children('ul.orbit-bullets'); for(i=0; i<numberSlides; i++) { var liMarkup = $('<li>'+(i+1)+'</li>'); if(options.bulletThumbs) { var thumbName = slides.eq(i).data('thumb'); if(thumbName) { var liMarkup = $('<li class="has-thumb">'+i+'</li>') liMarkup.css({"background" : "url("+options.bulletThumbLocation+thumbName+") no-repeat"}); } } orbitWrapper.children('ul.orbit-bullets').append(liMarkup); liMarkup.data('index',i); liMarkup.click(function() { stopClock(); shift($(this).data('index')); }); } setActiveBullet(); } //Bullet Nav Execution function setActiveBullet() { if(!options.bullets) { return false; } else { bullets.children('li').removeClass('active').eq(activeSlide).addClass('active'); } } The CSS for this is: Code: /* BULLET NAV ================================================== */ .orbit-bullets { position: absolute; z-index: 1000; list-style: none; bottom: 150px; left: 0%; margin-left: 0px; padding: 0; } .orbit-bullets li { float: left; margin-left: 5px; cursor: pointer; color: #999; text-indent: -9999px; background: url(bullets.png) no-repeat 4px 0; width: 13px; height: 12px; overflow: hidden; } .orbit-bullets li.active { color: #222; background-position: -8px 0; } .orbit-bullets li.has-thumb { background: none; width: 100px; height: 75px; } .orbit-bullets li.active.has-thumb { background-position: 0 0; border-top: 2px solid #000; } The image file for the small dots is this: I'm afraid I'm not a Java person at all and know little about it so I would be very grateful if you could help me out with it... if it's possible.

This seems to imply that the existing data is getting copied into the result of += When I use just: someElement.childNodes[0].data = 'some char' 'x' is already the I get xsome char; BUT: I am doing a calculator that will display a string representation of a simple calculation in a manner that allows the user to modify the string before it is commited to processing. So, there must be accomadation for a decimal fraction. E.G. .0234 When the decimal is entered first, the rest of the chars are added properly but the decimal gets duplicated when it should not. This last could very well be a code problem I would have to find and correct, the the += problem is not. I don't understand how to use the [icode] or [code] tags: apparently not literally thanks for time and attention JK Hi all, I found a small fading script online which suits my needs though I need some help changing it around a bit as it seems to only work once in a page (i.e. a second occurance of the code doesn't work though the first one continues). Also, I'm not quite sure how to put it into a .js external page and then call the specific function as many times as I want in the body and have it all work. Please advise on this issue (i.e. Putting the code in an external file and then calling the fadeIn() function as many times as I want in the body). Thanks. BTW, the concept is a fixed imaged with the js fading another image over the top of that first image in and out over and over again. All the images and application of the js will be the same for all occurrences on the page (don't know if that's relevant to the solution I'm asking for but throwing it in there just in case). Here is the code: Code: <html> <body style="background:#000;"> <div style="float:left;"> <img style="float:left;" id="me" src="fade_arrow2.png"/> <img style="float:left;margin-left:-44px;" src="fade_arrow1.png"/> <script type="text/javascript"> var element = document.getElementById('me') ; var duration = 4000; /* 1000 millisecond fade = 1 sec */ var steps = 20; /* number of opacity intervals */ var delay = 5000; /* 5 sec delay before fading out */ /* set the opacity of the element (between 0.0 and 1.0) */ function setOpacity(level) { element.style.opacity = level; element.style.MozOpacity = level; element.style.KhtmlOpacity = level; element.style.filter = "alpha(opacity=" + (level * 100) + ");"; } function fadeIn(){ for (i = 0; i <= 1; i += (1 / steps)) { setTimeout("setOpacity(" + i + ")", i * duration); } setTimeout("fadeOut()", delay); } function fadeOut() { for (i = 0; i <= 1; i += (1 / steps)) { setTimeout("setOpacity(" + (1 - i) + ")", i * duration); } setTimeout("fadeIn()", duration); } /* start the effect */ fadeIn(); </script> </div> </body> </html> Hello, I have a script that makes a link a different color on click, i would like to add a hover color to the links that are NOT active. Script below. Thanks in advance! Code: function activate(el) { var links=document.getElementsByTagName("a"); for(i=0;i<links.length;i++) { if(links[i].className=="toggle") { links[i].style.color="#999"; } } el.style.color="#DF8700"; } Hey all, I'm trying to write what I thought to begin with would be a simple script. All it will do is go out and find every textarea, then change the onblur/onfocus functions to something that I created. Here's my problem, when I am going through each textarea object, I can't seem to find a way to reference the object from within the function. See down in that for loop? When I say tAreaSniffer(i), the i ends up being overwritten each time. This makes the value of i in each object to be 3(since there are 3 textareas). I have used javascript in the past, however now I am getting back into it and having trouble. Thanks guys, Here's my code: Code: <html> <head> </head> <body> <form> <textarea name="t1" rows="4" cols="20"></textarea> <textarea name="t2" rows="4" cols="20"></textarea> <textarea name="t3" rows="4" cols="20"></textarea> </form> <script type="text/javascript"> var sniffer; var textareas = document.getElementsByTagName('textarea'); var counter = 0; function tAreaSniffer(tArea)//, oldCont) { alert(tArea); //var curCont; = tArea.value; counter++; sniffer = setTimeout(function(){tAreaSniffer(tArea)}, 1000); } for(var i=0; i<textareas.length; i++) { textareas[i].onfocus = function(){tAreaSniffer(i);};//, textareas[i].value);}; textareas[i].onblur = function(){clearTimeout(sniffer);}; } alert("HEYO"); </script> </body> </html> |
