JavaScript - Javascript/ajax 2nd Edition - T4tutorial (pull-down Menu's)
Hi, I'm new to these forums so if anything is out of the ordinary let me know for next time or so I can correct it - please.
I am also not very good with javascript but I am trying to learn the whole concept. Anyways, I am supposed to create pull down menus when I open this page: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

The most famous of fictional detectives, Sherlock Holmes
first appeared in print in 1887, in stories written by the Scottish author
and physician, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Holmes is famous for his use
of deductive reasoning to solve difficult and complex cases. Almost
all Holmes stories are told in the first-person narration of
Dr. John Watson, Holmes' closest friend and confidant.</p>
<p>Doyle wrote four novels and 56 short stories in the Sherlock Holmes
canon. The first Holmes tale was the novel, <i>A Study in Scarlet</i>,
which chronicled the meeting of Holmes and Watson and covered their
first case together. As Doyle wrote additional tales, the Sherlock Holmes
stories grew in popularity, becoming a regular feature of <i>The
Strand Magazine</i>. Desiring to explore other literary pursuits, Doyle
grew tired of the detective and killed off Holmes in the short story
<i>The Final Problem</i>. However, public acclaim and a desire for more
Holmes stories eventually persuaded Doyle to resurrect the popular
detective, bringing him back in <i>The Adventure of the Empty House</i>.</p>
<p>Doyle's final Holmes story, <i>His Last Bow</i>, appeared in 1914, but
that did not end the public's fascination with Holmes and Watson. Basil
Rathbone brought the character to the silver screen in 14 movies
loosely based on Doyle's original stories. In more recent years,
Jeremy Brett played Holmes to great critical acclaim over four seasons of
the BBC series, <i>The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes</i>. In all, Holmes
has been played by over 70 actors appearing in over 200 films.</p>

The servlet outputs html and javascript codes and receives some result from a thread, which works behind the servlet. Thus, html and javascript codes dynamically varies. While result equals null (a thread is not completed), it shows "Currently processing," and refreshes Code: <div id="load"> - </div> every second automatically. After receiving some results, it should stop automatic refreshing and show "Done." I wrote source codes described below. It shows "Done" after getting some results, but does not stop refreshing. However, when I manually refresh the page (Ctrl-R), the script is loaded and reloading is stopped. How can I pull javascript codes automatically? Code: <head>
<script type=\"text/javascript\">
var auto_refresh = setInterval(
function start()
{
$('#load').load('./Page' + ' #load');
}, 1000);
</script>
</head>
<div id="load">
if (result == null) {
// the variable result is received from a behind thread every second.
// while a thread is processed
<p>Currently processing. <p>
} else {
// a thread is completed
// try to stop reloading
<script type=\"text/javascript\">
clearInterval(auto_refresh);
</script>
<p>Done. <p>
}
</div>
I am wondering if I can get the value of a drop down box that was created using ajax. I have a div tag holding the spot on item.php and when the user make a selection it calls my getitem.php which returns a drop down with the populated items. PHP Code: <option value="0"></option> <? while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { ?> <option value="<? echo $row['itemnum']?>" > <? echo $row['itemname']?> </option> <? } echo "</select>"; mysql_close($con); ?> The drop down list is then inserted here on the item.php PHP Code: <!-- Dynamic item list based off catagory--> <div id="txtItem"> </div> So I have no tag handler since they were all created back on the getitem.php page. What is the best way to do this? I would love the have the drop down tags on item.php but how do I dynamically populate the list then? Any help would be great. Thanks Hello, I'm very new to javascript and am probably dabbling in stuff that I shouldn't if I am new to it. Nonetheless I've exhausted my resources and am seeking some answers from people who know what they're talking about. I've got this XML file: Quote: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Menu> <Section> <Title>Product Information</Title> <Topic url="howto.html">How to use This Product</Topic> <Topic url="product.html">Product Overview</Topic> <Topic url="sysreq.html">System Requirements</Topic> </Section> ..... </Menu> There's more data than that but for brevity that's the way it's constructed and repeats with several Titles and Topics. Here's the JS i'm using to build a dynamic menu. The goal is to pick up the data and build an Accordion menu out of it: Quote: if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { xhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); //create ajax var } else { xhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); //IE } xhttp.open("GET","menu.xml",false); xhttp.send(""); xmlDoc=xhttp.responseXML; document.write("<div class='acc'>"); var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Section"); for (i=0;i<x.length;i++) { document.write("<dt>"); document.write("<a href='#'>" + x[i].getElementsByTagName("Title")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue + "</a></dt>"); document.write("<dd><ul>"); var y=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Topic")[0].childNodes[0]; for (foo=0;foo<x.length;foo++) { document.write("<li class='acc_item'><a href='#'>" + x[i].getElementsByTagName("Topic")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue + "</a></li>"); } document.write("</ul></dd>"); } document.write("</div>"); It creates the menu correctly... to a point. It has the correct styling, the accordion works perfectly, it has the correct Titles in the correct places, but when I "expand" one of the Titles it lists the first topic only, and lists it 5 times (the same amount of Titles I have). It then repeats this for every section. Example: Product Information How to Use This Product How to Use This Product How to Use This Product How to Use This Product How to Use This Product I'm not very confident in the syntax, or what it is exactly doing. Any guidance would be very appreciated. Please keep in mind I'm very new. Thanks! I'm writing a web app and so far: - the user enters some information on the web page - user data is submitted to a PHP script (using AJAX, so w/o a page refresh) which processes the data and generates a list of items that need to be returned to the user Now, I need to return the data -- preferably in the form of a list, where each returned item has a check box (so the user can choose which items in this list the subsequent operations will affect). However, can a PHP script effectively add/remove contents from such a checklist, or would this be something done better through Javascript only? For example: this, I think, or something similar. Luckily the PHP script that processes the data is short at this point, so I'd like to know whether I should rewrite it in Javascript (assuming Javascript can deal with REST well) to avoid a hassle. Someone built this application for me. It contained a web page, the user clicked on the detail button to view a detail page, and then clicked on an update button on the detail page to update the database. This type of navigation was unappealing to me. I prefer a free floating form that contains a list, then by clicking on expand, you get to see detail on the specific item, and then click update all within the same free floating form. Is this possible with javascript and ajax? If so, can anyone provide examples? Thanks.
I have to display a div before firing a sync ajax in javascript div is getting displayed in firefox but not in IE and chrome. I need to basically display a download bar to indicate the user that the request is in progress All, I have some code on my page which changes images in a div without reloading the page. This works great, however my problem comes with I go through a couple images and the actual URL is still on the original image. Is there any way to change the URL when I click the image as well?? Thanks in advance. Hello, I am using AJAX and got the output from AJAX like the below line Ajax function Code: if (http_request.readyState == 4) {
if (http_request.status == 200) {
var_output = http_request.responseText;
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = var_output; //value 100 displayed
}
else
{
alert('There was a problem with the request.');
}
}
In my javascript function, i need to get the value 100 from that innerHTML. Is it possible to get this value? Code: // I tried this way, but not working
var txt = document.getElementById('result').innerHTML;
or Store it in hidden field and get the value from javascript. Please suggest any idea to solve this problem Thanks Hi everyone, I would like to know everyone's thought about how I can achieve seamless browsing on my web application. I developed a website consisting of a collapsible menu, filters that correspond to a form and a search bar. All three components send information to the iframe I implemented inside this website. The question is that how could I enable seamless browsing (without the page refreshing every time a user sends something to the iframe)? Right now each time the collapsible menu is clicked, the iframe will add to its url depending on what is clicked (?id= or ?pid= or ?mid=). Each time a filter criteria or a search term is being submitted, a form will be submitted to the iframe. Each time any of the above happens the iframe will reload itself. It works just fine in my localhost server but once I uploaded the web to the server it will take a second or two to load the information. And I am trying to aviod that. I understand that it has something to do with AJAX but I do not know where to look as I am new to the concept of AJAX. Please let me know your thoughts or if you need more information about the issue. Thank you so much! Jeffrey Reply With Quote 01-28-2015, 10:23 PM #2 Hi, I am creating a webpage to display menu items in a div tag. The premis of my page is to use 4 div tags. 1st div tag = company logo (top left) 2nd div tag = img of restaurant and address (top right). 3rd div tag = horizontal menu with text or buttons to call up menu items, for example: Lunch: Dinner: Beverages: Driving Directions, etc 4th div to display content pages. For example, if the user clicks the Lunch button, it would call the lunch page and place it into the 4th div tag. I am able to do this with frames in HTML or content pages in ASP.net, but how would I do it using CSS and div tags. The best response I got was with AJAX, but I am not familiar with this language yet. Can I use JavaScript to do this? Any suggestions? Thank you, Paul Hi, I'm trying to work through a head first book on ajax and javascript. I am also trying to emplement some of the codes in a small application I had built strictly with server side code. What it does is: two input fields for user defined values. Once the user inputs the two values, they are passed to the action page, some simple math is performed on these 2 values, and then 4 different resluts are displayed back on the action page. What I wanted was of course to make this asynchronous and display the results without a page reload. So, when I reworked the book code for my own use, and try to run the application, I get an error saying my url variable is undefined. The value of the first input seems to be passed though. One thing of note to mention is the application was written in coldfusion. The form values are passed using cf. Not sure if that matters. I mean cf works well with js and ajax, but maybe my original procedure doesnt work with my js code as it is now. Here is the javascript/ajax code: PHP Code: <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> var request = null; try { request = new XMLHttpRequest(); } catch (trymicrosoft) { try { request = new ActiveXObject("Msxm12.XMLHTTP"); } catch (othermicrosoft) { try { request = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } catch (failed) { request = null; } } if(request == null) alert("Error creating request object!"); } function getLampVolts() { var lamp = document.getElementById("lampVoltage").value; var url = "calculatorAction.cfm?lamp = " + escape(lampVolts); request.open("GET", url, true); request.onreadystatechange = updatePage; request.send(null); } function updatePage() { if(request.readyState == 4) { if(request.status == 200) { var lumens = request.responseText; document.getElementById("lumens").value = lumens; } else alert("Error! Request Status is " + request.status); } } </script> Here is the form: Code: <form action="calculatorAction.cfm">
<table>
<tr>
<th>Lamp Voltage</th>
<td><input name="lampVoltage" id="lampVoltage" type="text" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Socket Voltage</th>
<td><input name="socketVoltage" id="socketVoltage" type="text" /></td>

</tr>
</table>
and here is my action page calculatorAction.cfm: Code: <cfparam name="bulbCalculator.cfm" type="any" default="0">
<!--- Set User Defined Values of Form --->

Again, the url variable says it is undefined. But the variable "lamp" contains the form field value. Thanks for any help and tips in advance! i have a drop down which triggers a ajax call. The ajax response is a form with various fields depending upon the drop down option selected. I have a text field in that response form which is to input the date. i have a calender widget and wish to display that as a popup with an onfocus or onclick on that text field. But becoz of the ajax response it does not let me do it. I know the problem is in the creation and destruction of the element where the calender has to be displayed so i tried putting the callender intiialization function in another function and calling that onclick but id doesnt work. below is my modified javascript code for the initialization of the calendar. Code: <script type="text/javascript">
var calendar1, calendar2, calendar3; /*must be declared in global scope*/
/*put the calendar initializations in the window's onload() method*/
function cal_init()
{ alert("hi");
calendar1 = new Epoch('cal1','popup',document.getElementById('calendar1_container'),false);
calendar2 = new Epoch('cal1','popup',document.getElementById('calendar2_container'),false);
calendar3 = new Epoch('cal1','popup',document.getElementById('calendar3_container'),false);
};
</script>
hi friends, I am looking for a solution to display the records of a dynamically selected mysql table using ajax,jsp & js combinations. any sites showing some example thnx in advance. I have something that's called with AJAX when the user enters some text (http://askvoke.com). What I want is to execute some javascript within this "frame". If the frame calls something, with say
Code: <script type=\"text/javascript\">
document.write('h');
</script>
in it, then "h" doesn't appear, and neither does anything besides what would normally be shown if I didn't add that. Anyone have a solution? I have a website that is using ajax to keep the page up to date with the database information. I call this page through a file called start.php. Once index.php is loaded it has a menu with selections. I then want it to call a page called query.php in an iframe to update the information, but not open a new window. In the iframe the query.php will run and then redirect itself to blank.php. The code is as follows and any help would be much appreciated. I have tried several methods of doing this and they have been commented out because they didn't work or didn't do what I wanted them to do. I do not want to use window.open since IE doesn't work well with it. window.open does work by pop up windows but I want to stay away from them. The main code I am looking to get help on is in red under start.php. In start.php I will include the entire file. In index.php I'm only going to include the main sections I use for this snippit. In query.php I'm not going to include query.php since I beleive this file isn't important for this snippit. start.php Code:

I have these buttons that I need to have switch accounts on and off. They work, but for some reason the words on the buttons are not changing from Activate to Deactivate... It seems as though the button is not updating itself after success of the function. First post on here so I apologize if I am doing this wrong. Problem code in jsbin--> http://jsbin.com/okifa3/ Code: $(function() {
var activateOwner = function(u) {
var dataString = 'oid=' + u + "&a=1";
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "{/literal}{$site_root_path}{literal}account/toggle-owneractive.php",
data: dataString,
success: function() {
$('#spanowneractivation' + u).css('display', 'none');
$('#message1' + u).html("Activated!").hide().fadeIn(1500, function() {
$('#message1' + u);
});
$('#spanownernamelink' + u).css('display', 'inline');
$('#' + u).val('Deactivate');
$('#spanownernametext' + u).css('display', 'none');
$('#' + u).removeClass('btnActivate');
$('#' + u).addClass('btnDectivate');
setTimeout(function() {
$('#message1' + u).css('display', 'none');
$('#spanowneractivation' + u).hide().fadeIn(1500);
},
2000
);
}
});
return false;
};
var deactivateOwner = function(u) {
var dataString = 'oid=' + u + "&a=0";
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "{/literal}{$site_root_path}{literal}account/toggle-owneractive.php",
data: dataString,
success: function() {
$('#spanowneractivation' + u).css('display', 'none');
$('#message1' + u).html("Deactivated!").hide().fadeIn(1500, function() {
$('#message1' + u);
});
$('#spanownernamelink' + u).css('display', 'none');
$('#spanownernametext' + u).css('display', 'inline');
$('#' + u).val = 'Activate';
$('#' + u).removeClass('btnDeactivate');
$('#' + u).addClass('btnActivate');
setTimeout(function() {
$('#message1' + u).css('display', 'none');
$('#spanowneractivation' + u).hide().fadeIn(1500);
},
2000
);
}
});
return false;
};
$(".toggleOwnerButton").click(function() {
if($(this).val() == 'Activate') {
activateOwner($(this).attr("id"));
} else {
deactivateOwner($(this).attr("id"));
}
});
});
never mind
