JavaScript - Lightbox + Flash + Browsers Back Button Error
Hello Everbody,
I have been at this problem for 10 hours now and am going NUTS!! I am making website to look around an ancient Egyptian Tomb. Feel free to have a look: http://www.campbelltest.co.uk/britishMuseum/online/ I have a flash movie which I have scripted to utilise the browser back button using this script http://www.asual.com/swfaddress/docs/. This works fine until open a lightbox image form within the flash movie using Lokesh Dhakar Light box http://www.lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/ and the browsers back button stops working!! The code below is to the JavScript links and the code that lauches the lightbox: Code: <script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfaddress-optimizer.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfobject.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfaddress.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfmacmousewheel.js"></script> <script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="js/lightbox.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <!-- start | JC --> <!-- added for flash --> <!-- added for launch from flash --> <script language="JavaScript"> function openLightbox(url,group){ var objLink = document.createElement('a'); objLink.setAttribute('href',url); objLink.setAttribute('rel','lightbox['+group+']'); objLink.setAttribute('title','caption'); Lightbox.prototype.start(objLink); } </script> <!-- end | JC --> This code is how I have embeded the flash in the page: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var so = new SWFObject('container04.swf', 'container04', '760', '450', '8', '#ffffff'); so.useExpressInstall('js/expressinstall.swf'); so.addParam('menu', 'false'); //so.addParam('movie','container04'); so.write('flashcontent'); var macmousewheel = new SWFMacMouseWheel( so ); </script> I have added a text box to movie that shows the back button function exicuting and what its exicuting. I have never done any work with JavaScript before so I am up the creek without a paddle!! Similar TutorialsHi, "This happens only in chrome browser" I am trying to design a website and it has a couple of radio button on the first page. I selected one radio button and navigated to the next page. On my second page, if i hit back button, the first page show the radio option that i selected(which is correct) but when I hit save and continue it throws a JS error "please select one option". Chrome forces me to re-click the radio option again. The application is MVC 3.5, C# Here is the snippet of the ascx Code: <%= Html.RadioButton("radAccnt", "abc", Account != null ? (entity != string.Empty ? (entity.Substring(0, 3).Equals("abc") ? true : false) : false) : false, new { id = "radAbc", onClick = "SetEntity('abc');", onBlur = "javascript:ValidateOnBlur(\"ValidateAccount('true');\");" })%> I had a alert in SetEntity(Value) function and value is empty when the back button is clicked. I did some research and found that Chrome does not cache the form data. If this is true is there a work around for this? Please help. Thanks. Basically i have made a small gallery with a lightbox feature, and it half works. What i am trying to do is make the lightbox fade out the flash navigation like the rest of the page but it just seems to overlap my lightbox. Any ideas?

The quiz contains YouTube videos that, because of how the quiz is set up by QuizRevolution, will not play in browsers/devices without Flash (for example, the iPad). What I would like to do is put some script on my site that will load a SECOND quiz from QuizRevolution (this one without video) for browsers/devices without Flash. This second quiz will substitute for the first one. Does anyone know how to do this? The tricky part seems to be how I have embedded the quiz in my site, so I have included that part of the page he Code: <!--QUIZ BEGINS--> <article id="page_7c"> <div class="box" id="page1"> <a href="#page_1" class="close"></a> <div class="wrapper pad_bot1"> <div class="grid_16 prefix_4"> <p></p> <img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://c.gigcount.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEzMTUzNDA1NTM1MjAmcHQ9MTMxNTM*MDU1NTUwMCZwPTIwNDMyMSZkPSZnPTEmbz*wMWFhMzNjMDI4ZWM*NjNmYTZh/NGU1M2FiNzRmZTZlMSZvZj*w.gif" /> <iframe id=test src="http://www.quizrevolution.com/act147691/mini/go/test_your_knowledge_about_ufos" width="380" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" name="mystudiyoIframe" title="QuizRevolution.com"><a href="http://www.quizrevolution.com/act147691/mini/go/test_your_knowledge_about_ufos">test_your_knowledge_about_ufos</a></iframe> </div> </div> </div> </article> <!--QUIZ ENDS--> Many thanks for any help! I am entirely stupid when it comes to coding, so if you could be specific in your suggestions, that would be really terrific. Again, thanks!

When a user fills an answer on a page, if the answer is correct, it will go to another page. However, once the user goes to the next page, he/she CANNOT return back to the previous page. I do not want the user to return back, else he/she will have to fill the answer again to go to the next page, so it's not good. Thank Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question, but... I'm having an issue with the difference in behavior between the IE and FF back buttons. I'm using jQuery to create collapsable div regions which contain text boxes on a search form. After submit, if the use clicks the back button in FF, the region(s) the user had previously expanded, show as expanded. Also, there search term is still present. In IE, when clicking the back button, all regions are collapsed, in there original loaded state, but the search term is still saved. I put the following code at the top of the page: onload=function(){ alert('Onload!'); } When clicking the back button in FF, nothing happens. For IE, the alert pops up. This tells me that IE reloads the page (but somehow still saves some things, like the search text). My question is, is there a way to keep IE from reloading when the use clicks 'back'? I will be creating my own 'edit' back button for users to get around this, but I also would like to prevent this from confusing users and causing undesired results. Any help would be greatly appreciated. How you handle back button scenario in firefox browser. The problem is when i click browser back button , the javascript on load is not executed and page is rendered from cache. It works in IE.. Hi, I have the following problem: When I use this script it pops up both if a user tries to close the window and also if he presses the back button. Please tell how to show another window or do another action when the back button is pressed? I know it is possible although a lot of people say it's not. Code: <script type="text/javascript" type="text/javascript"> window.onbeforeunload = confirmExit; function confirmExit() { return "blabla"; } </script> I have a website using this pageslide function http://srobbin.com/blog/jquery-pageslide/ Basically the page you see in the example is acting as a side menu bar and when you click the links on that page, it performs the sliding action and a new page slides into the screen. I'm wondering if there is any way to get the back button to slide it back to the main page, rather than having to click a link to go back? I am creating a popup for an online store so that when prospective customers put something in their shopping cart and then try to leave the site, they are offered a coupon in a popup. I am using the following code (FYI, uses prototype.js) Code: Event.observe(document.body, 'click', function(event) { if (Event.element(event).tagName == 'A' || Event.element(event).tagName == 'INPUT' || Event.element(event).tagName == 'IMG') { staying_in_site = true; } }); window.onbeforeunload = popup; function popup() { if (staying_in_site) { return; } if (popup_displayed) { return; } popup_displayed = true; //popup displayed here } The popup is not displayed when the user clicks on a link or submits a form (correct behavior) and it is displayed when the user types in a URL or tries to close the browser (also correct behavior). The problem is when the user clicks the back or forward buttons, the popup is displayed which is not the desired behavior. Anyone here have a solution for this? Hello, I need some script to force the browser to reload/refresh when a page is reached from the back button. EG You're on page A -> You click a link onto page B -> You Press Browser back to go onto Page A, it has old content that requires a reload. Now, my page is currently php so I won't bother with my code here as I am looking for any solution (I have also posted in php forum). Any JS solution that will trigger a reload on browser back is appreciated. I have tried a few ideas, most work in Chrome, IE always works, Firefox 4 and Opera 11 wont reload, simply fetching from cache I believe. Thanks. The question is on iframes/bookmarkablity and back button functionality. This issue I am facing is how to create iframes with bookmarkable url's without loosing the back button functionality.Lets say all the pages are in the same domain and the child pages inform parent of the child page load for updating the window.location.hash property to modify the current browser address bar. The updation of the url works fine on IE/FF/webkit. But the back button works as expected in IE-8 but the browser back-button does not work in FF/webkit (just the url changes the previous page is not loaded). If we don't update the window.location.hash property the back button works but the window url is not meaningful. Is there a way to get this functionality accross browsers, or is there an easier better way to do it (any other js libs). All pages are served from the same server to get around the permission issue. Gmail and other sites looks like they does something like this. Hi All, I am using a loop slider to scroll 4 pages. When I am on any page and click through the product on that.

It's a well documented issue- when you have a page that contains an iframe, and then navigate inside the iframe, hitting the browsers back button will only affect the contents of the iframe and not the entire page. I've been searching all over for solutions and cant find one that works for my current implementation. Anyone have any suggestions? Here is my code: js Code: function ShowPage(frame) { frames[0].location = frame+'.html' frame.contentWindow.location.replace(newUrl); } Buttons that change the contents of the iframe Code: <div id="thumb1"><a onmouseover="ShowPage('frame1')"onclick="ShowPage('frame1')" rel="nofollow" target="mainbox"></a></div> <div id="thumb2"><a onmouseover="ShowPage('frame2')"onclick="ShowPage('frame2')" rel="nofollow" target="mainbox"></a></div> <div id="thumb3"><a onmouseover="ShowPage('frame3')"onclick="ShowPage('frame3')" rel="nofollow" target="mainbox"></a></div> and then the iframe itself Code: <iframe src="frame1.html" type="text/html" style="border-width:0; border-style:hidden;" transparency="true" name="mainbox" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="700" height="807"> </iframe> Hello there. I'm using Joomla 1.5 and VirtueMart for my e-shop. I've also installed a virtuemart template which loads mootools. Well in my virtuemart product detail pages, if you click the main image to make it enlarged using IE8 it will not open and return a JS error instead (found it using Firebug): http://goo.gl/6lQCV Code: Message: 'closeButton' is null or not an object Line: 21 Char: 63 Code: 0 URI: http://www.xxxxx.xxx/media/system/js/mootools.js I'm not sure but I think that if I fix the JS errors on these pages the problem will be solved and the images will open normally. Note that on all other browsers it works fine (Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IE9). The page returns some other errors too but they're the whole time there. I think there's a conflict caused by all the JS libraries loaded by my Plugins (System - RokBox & YOOeffects), Joomla template, VirtueMart & VirtueMart template (jquery and mootools are both loaded). Thanks in advance |
