Why'd you take the search box off the top of the page? Are you trying for more ad clickthroughs? Whatever. I'll still come to your site whenever I need javascript help. But I liked the box better at the top!

Why do I get the impression that your site is out of date?
Some great tips are here but sadly lacking uptodate modifications.
"Can't be done!" is too common, most items CAN be done with CGI but this section is poor!
It is a great site but you must update it!

Obviously the product of much design work. My only problem with this (and pages like it) is that there are too many otpions. You can spend 10 minutes trying to figure out what to click on first.

Just wanted to drop you all a note to say that in my search over the years for solid and explicit technical help for various site design questions that arise, I've never found a single resource as consumate as IRT.ORG. No bullshit! This is better than any MS KB article or site I've EVERY seen. (and I've seen a few in 6 years).

Thanx for all of the help... Really!

One gripe, however, is that nearly all of the articles are sized in tables that require me to view full screen @ 1152x864. Some of them are even longer than that.

Other than this, I am extremely pleased with the aid I have received. Please keep up the good work.

I've loved your FAQ sites on Javascript Frames and Javascript windows... I'm trying to do a lot with Javascript right now. The only problem is that when I was trying to access your web site today, it was very slow... I had to wait > 1 minute to access your main page. At the company where I work www.clickarray.com we sell a product that will provide Web Site acceleration through content caching and server load balancing. Its pretty affordable too. The base model is only 8000 dollars. Feel free to contact me if you are interested.

Thanks.

BTW, the is a line error on Line 189 of the page http://www.irt.org/cgi-bin/feedback.pl?subject=irt%2eorg%20Home%20Page&author=martin, "Expected ']' is reported. Maybe something in my setup, but I mention it just in case.

Hi,

I was searching the site with query "child window close", looking for an answer to my problem 'how do I close a child window with onclick on the body of the parent'. I followed the instructions I found & copied the code provided for some users' faq's, only to discover that some of the solutions the site provides don't work. Are these solutions tested on modern browsers ? Is the site still being maintained ?

Thanks

Question: I'm using the following code on my menu buttons. I'm also using a preload images script but they are very very slow once uploaded onto the net. They work fine on the computer though.

onMouseOver="document.tababout.src='images/tab_about_ov.gif';status='About AMI';return true" onMouseOut="document.tababout.src='images/tab_about.gif';status='About AMI';return true"

I found what seemed an answer to my question (how do you disable a function loop), but the advice (add a break) did not work. I keep getting an error message, no matter where I positioned the break.

I'm just trying to configure a script I got from someone in Russia - and I don't speak Russian! :< Hutchy

I like your site, and I refer to it often. I'm curious about one thing, though. I see a reference to a "property" I'm not familiar with on some pages. When Javascript examples are provided, sometimes they include something worded as "NoLocation". What is this? I can't find any information about this. An example of a page with this is at http://developer.irt.org/script/96.htm.

Thanks,
Kirt

I have run into a problem that I can not seem to find an answer to - I know that your team must be very busy, but if anyone has the time to spare a few minutes for me I would appreciate it.

Just a note: on the page http://www.irt.org/xref/SCRIPT.htm you state that the javascript script object is supported in Netscape 6(+). Not true. I've been testing with Metscape 6.2 on Windows and Mac and neither recognizes either the scripts array or named scripts as part of the document object. Attempts to access a particular script's properties return "undefined" messages regarding the script.

I want someone to be able to click on a normal link from my menu page.. and the page it opens to be very small (I want to be control the size). Can you please help me? Pretty please?

Thx, Brooklyn Heart

For Q1658, THERE ARE TWO ERRORS IN THIS CODE!
1st, it does not insert, but overwrites the character.
2nd, it has position 4 hard coded in, so it will not make use of the nth position.

How do I automatically insert a character after every Nth character in a string?

<script language="JavaScript"></script>

Hi, I just came across your website thanks to Google and your site is extremely helpful. One of the best I've seen so far! Just wanted to say thanks. I'm looking to see if anyone can help me with a script. I'm trying to write a script that will redirect visitors depending on the date (different page for new years, etc.). One of the problems I'm running into is that certain holidays don't have a fixed numeric day (i.e. - thanksgiving) which is making it difficult. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
