Hi Android experts, I have a weird code situation where I need to have a <DIV> to hold dynamic HTML generated. Here I am populating the <DIV> using its innerHTML attribute and it works fine and dynamically adds any HTML elements that are there in the dynamic HTML.
The problem I am facing now is if the dynamic (generated else where) HTML contains a list of Javascript methods, these methods aren't accessible to be callable from the buttons inside the div or outside the div ( I was able to get the requirement working in Desktop Internet Explorer 7+. This however doesn't work on Firefox too . I understand this isn't the best way, but to use addChild etc is, but then I would have to manually parse my HTML myself and construct all the child elements i.e do all that the innerHTML will do eventually (logically, i mean). ////////////////////////////////////////////Code also uploaded to http://pastebin.com/Q6w5hRPG //////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////Code works on Internet Explorer 7+////////////////////////////////////////////////////// <html> <head> <script> /* the input type = hidden is necessary or the JS won't be accessible */ /* script defer tag is also necessary */ function insertHTMLOnButtonPress() { var s = "<html><input type='hidden' id='dummyHidden'/ ><head><script defer='defer'>function dynamicallyInsertedFunction() { alert('Successfully called - dynamicallyInsertedFunction'); } </sc" + "ript></head><body><input type='text' value='Hello World'/><input type='button' onClick='dynamicallyInsertedFunction();' value='Call Dynamically Inserted Method'/></body></html>"; /* Clearing out innerHTML is also required to flush the innerHTML so that repeated attempts - i.e new HTML/JS should work */ document.getElementById('tempBody').innerHTML = ''; document.getElementById('tempBody').innerHTML = s; } </script> </head> <body> **********************************<br/> <!-- Don't close the div inline, causes some problem and replaces the buttons too --> <div id="tempBody"></div> **********************************<br/> <input type="button" onClick="insertHTMLOnButtonPress();" value="Insert some dynamic html"/> <input type="button" onClick="dynamicallyInsertedFunction();" value="Call Dynamically Inserted Method"/> </body> </html> /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Also posted on WebDeveloper.com - http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1116504 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
