JavaScript - Opening A Document
Hi,
I need to open a PDF file via a web page. Basically, I want to have a textbox where I type in a filename and then click submit and it will open that document. For example, I need to open a PDF document... I need to have a text box where I can input "test1" for example, click "GO" and it will add the "C:/test/" + textbox value + ".pdf" and open it in the browser. I could do it in PHP but this is going to run on a local machine with no serverside so I assume JS will be the way forward. Any ideas? Many Thanks MJFCAD Similar TutorialsProbably a stupid noob question, is there any way I can stop document.write from outputting info to a new page I would prefer to have it shown in a textarea. Info from an array that is suppose to display in a text area when button is clicked and when another button is clicked it is suppose to show some other info. But what happens is the first info displays in textarea for a few seconds and then the second info is displayed but on a new page and not the textarea where I want it to go I have marked code within the code // I want this specific code to be displayed second but I know its in the wrong spot. Here is the code [CODE] function show() { var myArray = new Array(); myArray[0] = document.getElementById('fullname').value; ' myArray[1] = document.getElementById('address').value; myArray[2] = document.getElementById('phone').value; myArray[3] = document.getElementById('email').value; //Code I want to display second in the textarea //var string = myArray.join("\n") //document.getElementById('textarea').value = string; document.writeln('Thank you for registering,' + ' ' + myArray[0] + '. Your membership will be confirmed by E-mail to ' + myArray[2] + "<br>"); document.writeln('Registration Details:') document.writeln("<br>") for (var i=0; i<myArray.length; i++) { document.write(myArray[i] + "<br>"); } } [\CODE] Thanks in advance My code is here and it works ... However, I would like my dynamic table to show on the same page as my body and not on a new blank page. I have created a DIV and try playing around with the document.getElementById('monTab').innerHTML but it's not working out for me ... What am i missing ?

Thank you very much I'm working on a website that will basically embed a widget/frame sent by a handler into a user's current page. The user basically adds a script tag to where they would like the HTML to be. The script tag has their settings and is basically a document.write that calls all the code that we want displayed. So here's my problem. We have a map that we need to add in a specific section, and to get the map we have to call another script tag. So we end up having a script tag (map) embedded in another script tag (the code for the widget/frame) or we end up having to document.write inside a document.write. Now this works just fine and as expected in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. However, Internet Explorer and Opera wait until the first document.write is completely finished before calling the embedded one. Of course the problem with this, is that it takes the map out of the document's flow and just appends it to the bottom left of the page. Since the rest of the page has already been called, there's no way to move the interior "map" script. Any ideas? Basically just trying to figure out how (if even possible) to render an embedded script tag in Internet Explorer and be able to place it properly. I've tried everything that I can think of, including AJAX and Google's unescape script. Any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate it. Or even if you've encountered a similar problem, and know that it just isn't possible in IE or Opera, that would be fine too. Thanks in advance! You can see the website here with all the code to make it easier for you to diagnose what is happening: Code: http://www.fdfdaa.com/desktop/desktop.html When you go to the start menu and select anything on the left side, you will see that windows open 100% of the screen by default. I did that by adding maximized:true but that doesn't appear to be working for the icons on the desktop itself. If you click on one of those 4 icons on the desktop though, it isn't opening at 100% for some reason. You can see my classes file here as well: Code: http://www.fdfdaa.com/desktop/classes.js Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time! I want to open a new tab "http://www.example.com/" when the user presses a key. How can this be done?

I am facing problem in IE6.x.x. when opening pdf document for modaldialog. Some security warning appears and the PDF not getting open. Can you suggest how to solve this problem. This happens only in some machine. We checked all the browser settings in the PC.Any suggesstions please? Getting : Security Warning instead of opening PDF. In the warning pop up i can see file name : my URL[The PDF open URL formed in java side with the report name and pasing parameters] File type : Un known file type If i click "open", or "save" or "Cancel" the window is getting closed. I checked the browser setting also. Everything is fine. Please note : This happens only in some machine, not every time.The problem only occurs first time for the user and from next time he is not getting this problem again[Rare case]. All documents are getting opened successfully. Please post me if any body facing this problem and let me know the solutions if any. Thanks in advance. Guys, this is a script which runs on a Mac not a browser. I have created a script which transfers data from an Excel CSV file into an In-Design document and formats it, I am now just trying to take out some of the options for human error. I need the script to Open the Excel file which has been selected by dialog box and then save it to the desktop as a csv file. I thought this bit would be simple, but I cannot get the file to even open. Help please, Nick Hello, I need your help, I have the following code below, and its giving me an error saying: "The system cannot find the file specified". Code: <html> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> function start_ccm(){ var wsh = new ActiveXObject('WScript.Shell'); wsh.exec("C:\Program Files\WorkDynamics Technologies\ccmApplications\ccmMercury.exe") } </script> </head> <body> <input id="Button1" onclick="start_ccm()" type="button" value="START" /> </body> </html> There is nothing wrong with the location, but my best guess are the spaces in the file path. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Cheers, J Hello, I am in the midst of designing an HTA application, such that I would be able to open a file via notepad in Javascript using the Shell.Application object. I have the following code, however, It does not work and can't seem to figure the rest out. Code: function test101() { var oShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application") var commandtoRun = 'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\notepad.exe "F:\\WEB\\saved items\\A-2010-00455.txt"' oShell.ShellExecute(commandtoRun,"","","open","1"); } Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Jay Hi there all, Trying to adapt a bit of Code, but failing wonderfully! I'm writing in Cold Fusion, but using a little java script to create the sliding effect. It's from a sliding open list function in another site, and I tried to just hack my current needs in there. Code: <script> function DC_ShowHideMoreWebsites(id) { if( document.getElementById( "contentsections2").style.display=="none" ) { Effect.BlindDown( "contentsections2"); return false; } else { Effect.SlideUp( "contentsections2" ); return false; } } </script> is followed by Code: <p id="moreScreenshots"><a href="#" onclick="DC_ShowHideMoreWebsites"; return false;">More Website Examples</a></p> I've tested the script, div and the DB call by just calling it with Code: <p id="moreScreenshots"><a href="#" onclick="Effect.BlindDown('contentsections2'); return false;">More Website Examples</a></p> And that works fine. I've never coded in Java, hence the problem! any help appreciated Anyone familiar with Squeezebox (http://digitarald.de/project/squeezebox/), any ideas of the best way to open this via an onclick?
Hi, I am having some problems with this modified version of Lightbox. I had a programmer implement this into the site and then one day it just stopped working. I'm trying to fix it myself, with no success. To view the problem go to: http://www.uscgq.com/question/deck/2 and click the red flag icon. The lightbox opens, but only shows the "Loading" message. I have isolated the problem to somewhere in the Lightbox.js just don't know where or what it is. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey Guys, I feel like a complete idiot posting this, but I clearly am missing something. I'm trying to open a window with the specs below but all it does is open a standard sized window. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Code: <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript"> function open_window() { window.open ('https://domain.com/document.php','newwindow',config='height=418,width=590,toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no') } </SCRIPT> <p><a onclick="open_window()"><img src="images/image.png" width="142" height="113" /></a></p> I am trying to write a javascript to open multiple websites in the same window for Internet Explorer. However I keep getting the website opening in a new window. Here is my code. Code: var url = [ "http://www.google.com", "http://www.yahoo.com", "http://www.msn.com" ]; var interval = 3000; var startTime = 0; for (i = 0; i < url.length; i++) { startTime = startTime + interval; setTimeout("openWindow("+i+")", startTime); } function openWindow(num) { window.open(url[num],'mywindow','width=800,height=600,menubar=yes,status=yes,location=yes,toolbar=yes,scrollbars=yes'); } So currently, this code behaves like this. Every 3 seconds, it opens up a new website. However this code I wrote opens google.com in a new window, then yahoo.com in a new window and so on. I want it to open all the websites in the same window. How do I achieve this? |
