I love your site! Visit all the time.Since your subdivided the FAQ's its even easier to find what your looking for. I suggest however that the page http://www.irt.org/script/script.htm not repeat the: "Javascript ..... FAQ Knowledge base" on every line. There are so many now that it is noisy and makes it harder to pick out the topics. I know i'm on the javascript faq knowledge base page saying it once at the top of the page and then the making hyperlinks of the different subjects would make it easier to find the topic that a user is interested in.

Hi, Someone from this site helped me pin down a nagging problem. To make a long story short, I was trying to close one window and open another with the same name via the OnUnload event. By naming the windows with the current time stamp in milliseconds solved the problem. Thanks.

Excellent! I have 2 problems and have found the answer to them nowhere. 1) A form with 2 scripts and both have inputs that need to be placed at the <body on Load,--2-->. How is this done?
2) I have a script that checks and validates form input (name,address,etc.) and a second script that does a thorough check of the e-Mail input. How can I click on one submit btn and have both scripts execute and submit the form? Thanks for your help Phil Mazzilli

Hi, I think some of the FAQs should be put into the same question. For example on http://www.irt.org/script/general.htm, you have the questions
1.)What's the difference between Java and JavaScript and why should I prevent my browser from executing JavaScript?
2.)Is JavaScript the same as Java?
3.)Is JavaScript same as Java?
4.) What is the difference between Java and JavaScript? Apart from that: Excellent site. (Maybe you could include an answer to "Can you name some of the best online Javascript introductions"

Hi, I asked a question yesterday about problems with the search in based on the Search and Display page, but I think I've got the answer. Turns out that some of my titles had words ending in 's, so the function for building the array got confused. I only discoverd this when I tried the script in IE explorer instead of netscape and it gave me an error message.

This is in reference to the VBScript FAQ. 1. "What did you think of this article?:" for this feedback is an inappropriate question (as this is an FAQ). 2. The FAQ is a good start! 3. It may be useful to divide the Q/A's into sections (General, Syntax, etc.) with a TOC. 4. It may be useful to enumerate the Q/A's. 5. "Which platforms support VBScript?" is slightly misleading and unnecessary. VBScript is not compiled/interpreted on a "platform" but rather interpreted by a browser. Q3 answers which. 6. The last Q/A is not clear. The question should be "What is the difference between a Function and a Subroutine?" (There is also no "Sub-Procedure" in VBScript. There are subroutines which are represented by a Sub ... End Sub construct.) The difference is unclear as well. There are subtle differences, such as a function MUST return a value, which should be mentioned. 7. A useful question that could be added is: What is the difference between JavaScript and VBScript? Which one should I use when and why? This will of course require some thinking and expertise in both. Suggestions: VBScript is Microsoft proprietary and there is no movement for a standardization, unlike JavaScript; VBScript has a much stronger support for ActiveX controls, and in general closer ties with the Windows family-based technologies, unlike JavaScript; VBScript may be a more familiar path for those versed in Visual Basic.

Here's a question answered for your FAQ. I just about went out of my mind tonight trying to figure this one out: Q: When I try to run a program that includes javax.comm in the debugger, I get an error saying that win32com.dll is not in the shared library path. But the dll is in the bin directory. A: The error message is misleading. The java_g debugger loads dll's with "_g" appended to the name. This is meant to allow for debugging versions of the native libraries, but in fact you don't need a special version. Just make a copy of win32com.dll and name it win32com_g.dll

where can I submit javascript bugs and workarounds? here is a IE4 javascript bug.. We have a string s, and we want to search for the literal slash

Netscape and IE5 handle this without error.
The workaround is to use the

ASP FAQ 1. Good start! 2. Many Q/A's are supported with
actual code, which is very encouraging. 3. A useful Q/A might be:
Q. On what O/S's is ASP available?
(This is related to Q. 5802.)
A. Windows NT. (More?) 4. Q5811 seems to have a typo. This question may be more suitable for the VBScript FAQ. 5. Another useful Q/A might be:
Q. Where can I learn more about ASP? Is there any documentation available.
A. Links to ASP area in Microsoft MSDN.

You have amazing resources on JavaScript -- the best I've seen. However, I'd suggest that your answers on reading/writing text files are not entirely accurate (see list below). The basic contention of most of these answers is that JS (or client-side JS) can't read or write text files. However, when combined with HTML, it can do so quite easily. All you really need to do is, for example, use the src attribute for div, layer, or ilayer. Using these, one can include text files that can be read... even delimited files. Moreover, it is quite possible to open a new blank file in a frameset and write contents, even delimited contents, to the document in that frame. The user then can save that file. Moreover, both IE 4 and Netscape 4 support file upload ... you just need the right permissions. It is the client-side JavaScript that accomplishes this, NOT server-side JS. Client-side JS can also manipulate HTTP requests, including FTP, which one of the answers says is impossible. But it is. This doesn't require server-side JS, just having your server set up properly -- things like knowing the password. Finally, the answer to FAQ 994 contradicts several of the other questions... Question List: 19

267

There are some problems not resolved... NN4 does not handle the onResize event correctly. Apparently, the resize event triggers both in a "true" resize event AND on adding/removing scrollbars.
To further complicate things: When using a frame with scrollbars disabled, the resize event does not function at all... I think this is related to the scrollbar-stuff. Why do I bother to mention this? Because all DHTML content is lost onResize in Netscape. Also an item that was overlooked on this page... For he rest: GREAT resource you have running here. It's on top of my bookmark-list :)) Greets!

I'm an old "customer" of irt.org, and i still find the information of great help. 2 comments : - If visited links used a different color, it would help to see at a glance what articles or faqs have already been read in a long list of items - Search seems less accurate than it used to be. I guess that comes from the increasing number of pages. It could be interesting to have the choice of selecting only part of the Knowledge base, e.g., searching in FAQs only. Best regards, sholby

This site ROCKS! I have learned all my JavaScript skills from reading your FAQ's. It's sometimes difficult to do what I am trying to do, simply because I don't know all the ins and outs of java, so looking at your FAQ examples can be confusing to me. There doesn't seem to be any FAQ sites anywhere with many MATH or CALCUALATION examples. I usually get frustrated with learning how to do some of the things my clients need because most of the time all I can find on the Web is stuff about frames and form validation and popup windows (Don't get me wrong - I need that knowledge too) but nothing for numbers anywhere. Do you know of any sites that can provide calculations and Math assistance and examples?
Thanks in advance...

Thanks for the web site. I noticed
a few problems with the javascript
given in Javascript FAQ Q1106: 1) the variable tRows is defined
as an array, but the name used
after that it "tRow" singular. I think
the array definition should just be
tRow = new Array() 2) the first use of "text = <form><table>"
uses "text" with a small t, but subsequent
uses all use "Text" with capital T and
so two different variables are being used. 3) The final assignment to Text is
"Text = </form></table>" but it
fails to put the "+" sign in front of
"=" to make it a concatenation. Fixing these things allowed the script
to run for me.

Just a comment, you can ignore me if you like, I am by no means a javascript guru or anything, but in your FAQ 203 in the javascript links section (opening anchors using a drop menu) it turns out that if you replace the 'filename.html#' with just '#' the script still works, and actually works faster because it doesn't reload the page and then jump to the anchor, it just jumps. Anyhoo, hope I could be of some help, you've got a great FAQ here, the best I've found so far, keep up the good work...

I know I would have appreciated it. I did use the SEARCH on the irt.org articles and I found some of those interesting but my above suggestion still strongly stands!

I love your javascript FAQ's. They are my primary resource while coding. I came across a problem that I couldn't find on your FAQ's, so I thought I would submit it. Using CSS Style Sheets, I wanted to be able to change the class of a table cell, instead of just changing one attribute of the style. In other words, I wanted to change the background color, text size, and text color all at once. The way to do something like this is outlined in this small sample below. I believe this only works in IE. Hope this adds value. Dominic

My only complaint is this... You keep refering to this '#' as the pound sign. It isnt the pound sign, it is known as a hash. The pound sign is the squiggly f that is used to denote british currency. Other than that, cool site.. a very worthy read!

Dear Sir/Madam, Would you please assist me how to download your faq all at once. suppose i want to download only java faq from your site, i think, it is not possible because you have numbered them. so i have to visit the link every time that i want to download. it is time consuming. The most important thing is people living in third world countries they have to think about money. because in those countries internet connection is expensive. regards,

Basically, your website, particularly the JavaScript section has been very helpful. However, sometimes your answer doesn't quite click for me (perhaps, I need more detail or examples). I solved my question to you folks yesterday. Basically, I was bouncing to a subdirectory and the javascript calls couldn't find the files called for. But, now I have a related question. The javascript works but the hourglass keeps on even though the processing has finished. I was thinking that maybe it was return thing so I started adding them. But it doesn't seem to be working. Any suggestions?

And I personnaly search a long time a possibility to put an html/text file into another in javascript or other... from the command line justlike : file.html?01012000.htm this must replace in the file.html at a selected place with the code from the file 01012000.htm I areardy try shtml and it works, but you cannot use string from command line, It will not work... I see www.jeuxvideo.com use it for example : http://www.jeuxvideo.com/whatsnew.htm?20000609 It takes the template page and include inside the tips/news from the 06/09/2000 .

Hi, I am having a problem I can not seem to be able to find a solution for.
I am saving a complete array in a cookie and then reload it.
(Form var1,var2,var3,...). This works fine in Netscape but not IE.
There the cookie is fully saved into the first element of the array only.
This is what i do:
Set cookie on one page like:
var amounts = "amounts";
var amount = new Array();
amount[0] = document.form1.amount_001.value;
amount[1] = document.form2.amount_002.value;
amount[2] = document.form3.amount_003.value;
amount[3] = document.form4.amount_004.value;
amount[4] = document.form5.amount_005.value;
amount[5] = document.form6.amount_006.value;
WriteCookie(amounts, amount, 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 1); then recall it a) on same page (wont work)
with:
var amount = getCookie("amounts")
if (!amount) {amount = new Array(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)}
document.form1.amount_001.value = getCookie("amount01");
document.form2.amount_002.value = amount[2];
document.form3.amount_003.value = amount[4];
document.form4.amount_004.value = amount[6];
document.form5.amount_005.value = amount[8];
document.form6.amount_006.value = amount[10]; and b) on a different site with:
var amountstobuy = getCookie("amounts");
and then addressing the elements. As said, it doesnt work in IE, I already altered the script so that IE saves it with ',' as well but still no help.
I would be really thankfull if you could help me with this.

In the discussion on popup windows, nowhere do you seem to say that using popups causes severe problems for users with motor and/or vision disabilities. This is a serious flaw. You seem to concentrate on showing developers how to do this "cool" thing without mentioning that it's an arrogant technique that actually causes a site to become inaccessible to many disabled users. On many sites, this is a violation of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) and can make an organization and/or designer subject to substantial penalties in an equal access lawsuit, including being forced to totally redesign the site without further payment.

In the Javascript Document section, FAQ 1160 the writer asks if the title bar can be remove.Your answer was no, but you can remove the title bar(MSIE5 only).use this in your script: window.open("http://www.irt.org","newWin","fullscreen=yes"); you will need to add a close button.

Great site, use it all the time... one comment in relation to FAQ 1160: can I remove the title bar, it is a little known fact that this is infact possible in IE only, thanks to what should be regarded as a bug, try this...
start a screen using the fullscreen + no tools etc. option that IE supports, then using javascript resize commands resize the window, and tada, you have a titlebar-less window, useful, you can add java onclick movement to it too.

OK, here it is. Absolutly the best site for info on anything webby. However perhaps some more definition between sections would bring the site into line. I am new to the web design arena, I started off looking at CGI to get my mail back form to work and ended up entering the world of scripting etc. After finding some stuff on perl I started to learn (a couple of days ago) this language. I have designed all pages on perl but I have found that I can't do some things and have had to revert to javascript. I have at the mo. explored the Java and VB sections. The VB FAQ seems much more geared up to the new user, the Java script FAQ is much much more comrehensive but does not cater for the beginner. Is there any way that I can get involved in the development of the site from a beginners angle and see some co-ordination between sections, most of which will seem bafling to most people. Kind Regards Chris Styles

The FAQS were very helpful. But my own problem has not been answered so far. And when I asked a java/javascript question I was surprised that in the category, no mention of these two were there.The nearest one was HTML, so I had put the category as HTML.
My problem is this :
How do I open a small child window from an applet button and after performing something on the child window, how do I close it and open the new page in the parent window containing the applet? I haven't found any FAQ matching to this. So I'll be grateful to whoever answer this.

Instead of just "FAQ 150" (for example) as the link, could you also put the browser caveats on the front FAQ page, so that the reader can see what browser each particular FAQ applies to? For example: JavaScript FAQ 537 doesn't say anything about different browsers in the question itself. You have to click the link to find out that the "solution" is: Only in MSIE4+ If that info was on the previous page, the user would be better informed (sooner informed). Thanks! Either way, good job!

There's one bug I didn't see here: In Netscape 3, when multiple
<script></script> tags are enclosed in a table, e.g. <table border=1>
<tr>
<td>
<script> function () { document.write("blah");} function(); </script>
<script> function2 () { document.write("blahblah"); } function2();
</script>
</td>
</tr>
</table> Netscape 3 will show the source code on the page of
all scripts after the first one, however, it will also do the document.writes. Weird. The only thing I could think of to fix it was just don't put multiple scripts in a table for Netscape 3.

Dear irt people. I think your site is excellent, and as a novice programmer have found it incredibly useful - thank you very much. However, I may be wrong, but I think the script offered in answer to Q1048 ("How can I close the child window when I close its parents") does not work. I have followed your example very closely, but when I try to run the script, I get a "windowhandle is null or not an object" error message. I won't insult you by sending you a script that does work - especially since it too almost certainly also came from your own site! Best wishes, and keep up the excellent and very helpful work, Mike

Just thought I'd let you know that Q1341 ("How can I determine the height and width of the window or frame?") in the JavaScript FAQ is out of date for Netscape 6---it sniffs for document.layers or document.all and of course NS6 don't play dat. If, in the future, you all are ever masochistically compelled to do a major rework of this site, it might be nice to include browser compatibility info with the FAQs. Thanks!

I often spend time looking through the FAQ's to find things I may not know. 99% of the time, the irt.org FAQ Knowledge Base is extremely helpful and informative. I think, however that you should remove or change "FAQ 542 How do I make a scrolling message on my status bar?". The only information in that passage is, "Resist temptation - your visitors will thank you for it." Not too helpful and rather opinionated, I'd say.

There is an error in the text of Q73 that you might want to correct.
Below I copied part of Q73, and used UPPERCASE to indicate the error (two times 'parent. was left out). And I suggested a clearer link between the two chunks of source.
[Use lowercase if correcting] Plus: A Hint at the top to only use the bottom solution is useful: the step-up solution in the middle contains errors too. _______________________

About a year ago i was working as a tech support rep for an ISP in Ontario Canada. I had time to kill so i started reading over the JavaScript faq and making my own little JS pages just to learn from. I ended up learning a lot from Martin!! From JS i branched off into PHP, an easy step. I learned a lot of DHTML too... Now (a year later) i'm working as a senior web developer and making more than twice what i was a year ago, and this is just the start! The short version of the story is that i learned everything i know about scripting from Martin Web, he's my hero!! Thanks Martin, i really owe you! -Ryan.

// Note that who = option what = list where = +/-1
// -1 moves up the list, +1 moves down the list.
var who = what.selectedIndex;
var currValue = what[who].value;
var currText = what[who].text; if(((who + where) <= what.length) && ((who + where) >= 0))

what[who].value = what[(who + where)].value;
what[who].text = what[(who + where)].text;
what[(who + where)].value = currValue;
what[(who + where)].text = currText;
what.selectedIndex = who + where;

Can somebody tell me how I can use client-side javascript to process information on a website that I do not own. One use would be for example, taking the first word from a website and returning it to a subroutine running in the client-side browser, then using that to do something else...

I found the answers to several questions and got some tips for other questions I would have had. The solutions are provided perfectly -- easy to adapt to your particular situation. So many sites give you too specialized an answer or they are not technical enough.
