JavaScript - Trigger Button Presses In Javascript
I am quite unexperienced in javascript (my only related experience is work with actionscript), so this problem is likely extremely simple. I am trying to alter a bit of code from a Firefox Jetpack extension (ClicktoFlash, if that helps) to suit my needs, and am having some trouble executing a time based event. The pertinent section of the extension's code is as follows:
Code: placeHolder.click(function(eventObject){
$(this).replaceWith(jQuery.data( placeHolder, "myEmbed") );
});
The bit of code executed within the function is what I wish to maintain, but I want the code to instead be executed within a certain timeframe. My makeshift attempt to alter the code read like this: Code: var currentTime = new Date();
var hour = currentTime.getHours();
if((hour >= 2) && (hour < 7)){
$(this).replaceWith(jQuery.data( placeHolder, "myEmbed") );
};
This didn't work quite like I had hoped (though I think the code itself is solid), and I think under the circumstances I might need to replicate the placeHolder.click() segment while 7>hour>=2 for the code to execute properly; however, I am having quite a bit of trouble trying to do this. In short, is it possible to trigger a button press without the mouse ever clicking the button, or is there a glaringly apparent easier solution that I'm missing? Thanks in advance. Similar TutorialsHello, I need your help. I basically need, when the enter button is pressed on the keyboard to trigger a button. Currently, my code works but it just refreshes the page and does not actually trigger the desired button: Code: //HERES MY CUSTOM BUTTON: <BUTTON TYPE="submit" onMouseOver="goLite(this.name)" onMouseOut="goDim(this.name)" onclick="javascript:v7_search()" CLASS="btn_std" NAME="btn_search" > ? Search </BUTTON> Here's the code to make the enter button work: Code: <form name="frmIMTS"
onkeydown="javascript:if (event.which || event.keyCode){if ((event.which == 13) || (event.keyCode == 13)) {document.getElementById('btn_search').click();}};"

Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Cheers, J I have some code that will check a users screen resolution and open a new window with a particular version of my website in, I have several sites for different page sizes. But when this code runs in Safari the pop-up is blocked so I would like the image on my page to be a button that runs the code to open the 'correct' window (based on the screen res) and as a button is launching the new window Safari should be okay about it. Unless I am doing something wrong? http://www.meta.projectmio.com/pop.html But how do I modify the code to do this, I'm hopeless? Thanks. Code: <fieldset class="submit" style="padding-left: 200px;">
<?php if ($site_exist >= 1){
echo "<input type=\"submit\" name=\"submit\" value=\"Update\">";
} else { echo "<input type=\"submit\" name=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\">";} ?>
<!-- This is the button I am having trouble with. -->
<input type="button" name="delete" value="Delete"
onClick="return confirmSubmit()">
</fieldset>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
function confirmSubmit(){
var agree=confirm("Are you want to delete this site from our index?");
if (agree) return true ;
else return false ; } // -->
</script>
Not entirely sure which forum this should go in, since the problem could probably be fixed with HTML, PHP or Javascript. Anyway, I have the confirmation window working. What I need is for the button to post a variable (siteDelete = 'true') when it is pressed. I would prefer to do that part without javascript, but I want the data to be posted after and only after the confirmation window returns true. I can do that with a submit button, but I'm not sure what code to use and where to use it when using a non-submit button. Hey guys. This is vague because I dont know what exactly to tell you but please reply with me so I can fix this. I want to add something to my forum. Specifically, I want to add a HTML and Picture button for when you go to reply. Like posting an article here, there are also these options (font, alignment, insert image) I do not know how to achieve this but shouldnt be too hard. Here are the two sources you will need to look through to help me fix the forum. http://neoweather.com/FWFORUM.JS http://static.websimages.com/JS/fw.js THANKS Hi, I am not entirely sure what I am doing wrong here, and I have been looking at this for ages, so apologies in advance if I have become so bleary eyed I can't see something simple. I use php to create buttons based on values pulled for a table. The problem I have is when you click on the first button the javascript function works great, when you click on the next button you get the same output even though it should be different results. I am working in ff and I can see on my firebug console that the javascript function is being called, but it is not passing the new value of the second or third button, it just keeps repassing the value of the first button. So not entirely sure where I am going wrong here. My page is: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function loadXMLDoc2(File,ID,Msg){
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else {
try{
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function(){
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200){
document.getElementById(ID).innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
var params=Msg;
xmlhttp.open("POST",File,true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Pragma", "Cache-Control:no-cache");
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
xmlhttp.send(params);
}
</script>
<head>
<body>
<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","user","password");
if (!$con) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("mydb", $con);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT theme FROM goods WHERE category='{$_POST['category']}'
ORDER BY theme DESC");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo '<input type="text" class="hidden" name="theme" id="theme" value="' . $row['theme'] . '" ><input type="button" class="button3" name="product" id="product" value="' . $row['product'] . '" onClick="loadXMLDoc2(\'getShow.php\',\'txtHint\',\'theme=\'+encodeURI(document.getElementById(\'rtheme\').value))" > ';
}
echo '<br /><br />
<div id="txtHint"><div>
<br />
<br />';
mysql_close($con);
?>
And getShow.php produces a table with a list of product images, names and prices, based on theme. So basically not sure where I am going wrong here? I have a basic function: function Notice() { var selectedCountry = CheckoutForm.elements["shipping-country"].selectedIndex; if (selectedCountry != 'United States') { alert('You are outside the US'); } } I have a select control with id "shipping-country": <select name="shippingCountry" id="shipping-country" > <option value="AF">Afghanistan</option> <option value="AL">Albania</option> ... </select> How can I trigger my function on selection change if I don't have access to html code or the server side code that generated the select control? typically I would just add onchange="Notice();" , but this option is out of the out of the question for the above reason. Any help would be appreciated. Hey everyone, I'm a NOOB, yeah, its hard at the beginning but you have to start somewhere right? Anyway I'm currently building a website that incorporates JavaScript, ActionScript, and the usual CSS and XHTML, but I've run into a bit of a snag. Our wishes for this grass roots web page was to add Ariel Flesler's ScrollTo jQuery plugin to our navigation, to dynamically slide our entire pages from left to right, right to left, upon the users choice. But, our navigation buttons, on our homepage in particular, are within a SWF file. Now is it possible to trigger the ScrollTo effect from buttons within a SWF? If not, can you provide a alternate solution to this dilemma? Thank you all, and I'm happy to be a new student of this community. <area shape="rect" coords="7,24,154,40" href="javascript:triggerCheckout()"> <area shape="rect" coords="7,24,154,40" href="javascript:triggerCheckout();"> <area shape="rect" coords="7,24,154,40" onClick="triggerCheckout()"> <area shape="rect" coords="7,24,154,40" onClick="triggerCheckout();"> None of these works. Why not? How can i link this hotspot area with a javascript function? Hi. I'm working on a usability issue on a website. I have a jquery accordion slider, each slide has a link to a category. Now what happens is that when I go to the category page by clicking on a slider, when the page loads, the sliders always opens the first slide. For example, if I click on the third slide, I would like that slide to be open when the page loads. This is similar to the :current I believe. I think to solve what I need I must trigger a click on the third slide that third slide page opens. I know I need a reference for a condition, so I have ID'd my body through this php code were it gets the page name from the url into variable $page and then into do body's ID: PHP Code: <?php $page = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; $page = str_replace("/","",$page); $page = str_replace(".php","",$page); $page = str_replace("?s=","",$page); $page = $page ? $page : 'default' ?> <body id="<?php echo $page ?>"> Now I've been trying through Javascript to get the variable from php and trigger a click on the slide of the category it is opening: PHP Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var bodyid = "<? $page ?>"; if (bodyid == "energy") { $("document").ready(function() { setTimeout(function() { $("ul#accordion li:second-child).trigger('click'); },10); }); } </script> This is not working and I don't really know what's wrong and how to solve or search for help. Does anyone understand what I'm trying to do here? Thank you. Tonight is one of those nights - which seem to be coming more often - where I just can't seem to do anything right. Here is the menu I'm using embedded in HTML: Code: <td width="40%" align="center"><font color="#000099"><b> <select id="Aircraft"> <option value="0">N148LH</option> <option value="1">N149LH</option> <option value="2">N150LH</option> <option value="3">N151LH</option> <option value="4">N152LH</option> <option value="5">N153LH</option> <option value="6">N155LH</option> <option value="7">N156LH</option> <option value="8">N157LH</option> <option value="9">N159LH</option> <option value="10">N162LH</option> <option value="11">N163LH</option> </select></b></font></td> Now I want to use that code to trigger default values for my Empty Weights. This is what I have and isn't working: Code:
var selectmenu=document.getElementById("Aircraft")
if (Aircraft=0) {
df.ew.value = 1569.41;
df.ew_mom.value = 135909.2;
}
if (Aircraft=1) {
df.ew.value = 1570.11;
df.ew_mom.value = 135929.76;
}
Any help is appreciated. If anyone is interested the page this is on is here. Hi Guys, I am new at JavaScript and start to do some tutorials.What I am trying to do here is prompting user to input a name and if the name was valid the page(document) will display with all objects like the button.But if user enter a wrong name then the button will be disabled! I create the following code but it did not work <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>New Web Project</title> <script language="JavaScript" type=""> function changeColor(){ document.bgColor = "Gray"; } </script> </head> <body> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> var person = ""; person = prompt('What is Your Name:'); if (person == "Foo") { document.write("<h1 />Welcome " + person); document.bgColor = "Yellow"; } else { document.write("<h1 />Access Denied!!!!"); document.bgColor = "Red"; document.getElementById("gree").disabled = true; } </script> <div> <p/><input id="gree" type="button" value="Gray " onClick="changeColor();"> </div> </body> </html> as you can see I used the: document.getElementById("gree").disabled = true; but it did not work , could you please give an idea how I can solve this problem? Thanks First, I will state that I am totally inexperienced in JavaScript. I have a web site application written in VB.net and asp. The main page uses JavaScript to load a popup page that performs multiple tasks. The main page accepts a variety of incoming messages, only SOME of which need to be passed to this popup page for processing. I found an ugly way to pass the message to the popup by placing it in a Session variable. Now I need to cause it to be handled. I see two possibilities, and I do not have a clue how to implement either. Either one would be great: 1. In the main page, trigger a subroutine in the popup, using JavaScript. OR 2. In the popup, establish a trigger any time that Session variable changes. Thanks in advance for any help on this. Hello, I have this onchange event that occurs after user selection of a dropdown menu. When a user makes a selection it queries the database and delivers some data. The value of the dropdown is stored in a database, but the problem is when the page is refreshed the delivered data disapears, only reappearing if you change the dropdown. How can I make the onchange event run when the page loads so that if there is already a selection, the database data will always be there, only to change if the user changes the selection? Here is the JS: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function showCustomer(str)
{var xmlhttp;
if (str=="")
{document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML="";
return;}
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();}
else
{// code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
{if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
{document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;}}
xmlhttp.open("GET","getcustomer.asp?q="+str,true);
xmlhttp.send();}
</script>
And the onchange line: Code: <SELECT Name=""customers"" id=""customers"" onchange=""showCustomer(this.value)""> Etc... Please ignore the double sets of quotes. I have a video on a page, which on a pc or mac, will play inside a standard flash player. On the iphone, I have setup javascript to detect iphone / ipod, and replace the flash player with an embedded m4v file: Code: if((navigator.userAgent.match(/iPhone/i)) || (navigator.userAgent.match(/iPod/i))) {
$('div#vid').empty('');
$('div#vid').html('<div ontouchstart="incrementHitcount()"><embed src="http://www.gridcity.co.nz/uploaded/images/'+cid+'_bg.jpg" href="http://www.gridcity.co.nz/uploaded/videos/'+cid+'.m4v" type="video/x-m4v" rel="nofollow" target="myself" width="'+vidwidth+'" height="'+vidheight+'" scale="1" id="iphone"></embed><div>');
}
So far so good. I also want to trigger a simple onclick which makes an ajax call a remote PHP file. I have tried ontouchstart instead (see above code) but still no luck. If I add the onclick to a static image rather than an embed instance, it works fine. But with the embedded video, it's as if the video blocks the onclick event for javascript to pickup. Does anyone know a way around this? hello everyone I am working on a quiz which marks the user and displays to different screens when the total has been calculated. If the user gets over 80% a congratulations page is shown but if you score less your told to go back and look at some of the material again.

I simply want it to display the Check Value button and detect 2 different id's for 2 different radio buttons (which is 'code' and 'number') Thanks! I have a basic Javascript slideshow that flicks through a series of 6 jpg images very quickly. I also have a button that i need coded so that when a user clicks on the button, the script for the slide show slows down the speed of the flicking images slowly over the coarse of ten seconds and stops on an image. How do i go about coding the button in javascript? I hope this makes sense. Thankyou Here is my code so far. var i, imgs, pic; function rotate() { pic.src=imgs[i]; (i===(imgs.length -1))? i=0:i++; setTimeout(rotate,500); } function diceroll() { pic=document.getElementById("yes"); imgs=["photo1.jpg", "photo2.jpg","photo3.jpg","photo4.jpg","photo5.jpg"]; var preload=new Array(); for(i=0;i<imgs.length;i++) { preload[i]=new Image(); preload[i].src=imgs[i]; } i=0; rotate(); } |
