Thanks Michael, that got me a LOT closer...I just needed to add an eval() to
your code:

onChange="ColdFusion.Map.setCenter('map1',
{latitude:eval(this.value.split('|')[0]),longitude:eval(this.value.split('|')[1])});ColdFusion.Map.setZoomLevel('map1',10);"

Thanks for the help,

Re: CFMAP/JavaScript help

[Michael Grant]

I'm going to guess the problem is that the js is seeing your object as a
string.
I *think* this would work. Can't say for sure without testing it. I can
never remember weather you can use this.value with a select and have it
work. You may need to change it
to this.options[this.selectedIndex].value.split('|')[0] to target the value.


Select Location
#getMapLocations.name#

CFMAP/JavaScript help

[Pete Ruckelshaus]

I'm having a bit of trouble getting some JavaScript working with CFMAP.  I
currently use a link to center the map and zoom in on a specific location;
this code works fine:

Zoom

Due to the number of locations on the map, I want to provide users with a
way of selecting a location from a dropdown list, and then having the map
zoom and center on the selected location using an onchange event handler in
the select tag.  I feel like this would work, but it doesn't:



 Select Location
 #getMapLocations.name#
 
 


The error that I'm getting is:

Uncaught ColdFusion.Map.setCenter: center should be a textual address or
latitude/longitude pair, id: map1

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Pete

I don't think IE uses the EMBED tag at all. Give your OBJECT an ID of
its own, and use that when you're in IE.

(ot) Javascript Help

[Michael Muller]

Ok, I need some Javascript help. 

I just cannot get this script (residing in an iframe)...



parent.thisMovie('studio_loader_embed').reloadClipart();
parent.thisMovie('studio_loader_embed').showTab(2);



...to go through this script...


function thisMovie(movieName) {
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1) {
return HTMLCollection.namedItem(movieName)
} else {
return document[movieName]
}
}



...to function on this object...

width="670" height="550">





  

http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; />





-

For the thisMovie() function I have tried all these combinations for IE:

HTMLCollection.namedItem(movieName)  // HTMLCollection is undefined
namedItem(movieName)  // Object expected
document.getElementById //  'parent.thisMovie(...)' is null or not an object



You can see this functionality work in FF by going here...

http://www.silverscreendesign.com/designlab.cfm?proid=1264

... and clicking on the "Your Cart" button in the right.  Clicking that button 
should make the flash movie's tab go to "Add Art"

It does not work in IE.

Someone told me that IE cannot talk to an embed tag, only an object tag, but I 
believe the ID vs NAME issue is tripping me up.

I would be more than happy to send a PayPal payment for your time.

Thanks,

Mik

Re: (ot) javascript help

[Josh Nathanson]

Quite a few issues there...

First off, you can generally use one or the other of "visibility" or 
"display" properties.  In your case you'd probably want to use "display" 
since this will actually create or destroy the space that the br occupies.

Then, in makeNewEntry you'd want this one line:
document.getElementById('FTDTYPEe').style.display = 'block';
// since it is an id, you can reference it directly, independent of the form

Finally, you can remove the visibility property from the br:


That should get you where you need to be.

RE: (ot) javascript help

There's an easier way to do this...

Rather than using a br and assigning an id to it, use a div. Divs have built
in properties that aren't included in br tags.

I may be way off-base, but do you need that trailing "e" in "FTDTYPEe"?
Could it be the missing "e" from "Firbug"?

Why is this a Javascript question?

Just do some regex fun on your output content, stripping all anchor

This is a CF Forum, not a JS forum, but here goes.

When you launch the window, you must keep the launched window in a local var. 
Once you do that, you can access its frameset, etc... Below is an example of 
what I mean. 

 
var newWin;

function openTheWindow() {
newWin = window.open("launched.html","newWindowName");
}

function accessWindow() {
alert(newWin.window.frames);
}

I thought the question was, "what is the most compatible way to address a
form in JS", not "what browsers do you prefer to disregard?"

Right now, the answer to that question is to use the forms array. In XHTML
1.0, the FORM element should not even have a NAME attribute! (It's been
deprecated.)

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.10

However, the HTML DOM still supports the forms array, and will do so for the
foreseeable future:

The original code would work fine, as long as the two statements are
separated by semicolons, not commas.

Yes, there's nothing wrong with having multiple statements within an event
handler, other than readability.

RE: Javascript help

so I asked said, "You use WHAT browser?" 

I don’t consider Netscape 2 (or IE pre 5) when I use the phrase 'cross
browser compatible'. Especially when dealing with JS and/or CSS.

Actually, the first one in Bobby's list (document.forms[0].myfield.value) is
the most compatible; it works in Netscape 2, while
document.formname.myfield.value will not, if I recall correctly. Support for
addressing forms (and elements) using array notation was introduced with the
first version of JavaScript.

Re: Javascript help

That should work cross-browser, no?  it's pretty standard JS syntax.

onfocus="statement1; statement2; statement3..."

as long as each is separated by a semi-colon it should be ok?

RE: Javascript help

[loathe]

No it won't.

For that you'll need a function and you'll need to write a javascript
browser diction script and have separate clauses in the function for each
browser.

Mainly you'll use document.all and document.getElementById()

RE: Javascript help

[loathe]

1. Don't use on focus, use on click.  Users (well power users) and the
disabled tab through form fields, and if you do on focus it will empty to
form field even if they don't want to.

2.  When dealing with multiple fields I would recommend your using a
function in a script block kicked off by the onchange event.

Example:



JS Test

function clearForm(){
document.myForm.myField1.value="";
document.myForm.myField2.value="";
}











Also a couple of other tips.

1. Try and use XHTML.  All attributes and tags need to be lower cased.
2. Only use pound signs when they are needed, same with parens.  
3. DO NOT use camel case inside a tag unless your referencing a variable,
everything else should be in lowers.
4. If you decide you don't want to create a function to handle this you can
string statements together in the event handler using the semi-colon ;
Example:



One thing to be aware of with this is that you need to use different quotes,
one for CF/HTML and one for JS.

See you're declaring a string inside where your telling the object what
event handler to run, or in this case writing the event handler on the tag.
I use double quotes in tags, and singles in JS, it's a bit more difficult
when you're creating dynamic SQL as you have to use the single quote.

Anyway, hope it helps.

RE: OT: Javascript help

[Ben Nadel]

TanGuy,

Thanks, I think that first link helped a lot. I see what the guy is saying
(and I forgot that var's all get moved up to the highest scope - its sad
that I used to aide a web-dev class). 

So now, I have something that works in terms of passing around variables
that make sense:




  Javascript Dynamic Variables
  

function TestClass( strName ){
  this.Name = strName;
}

TestClass.prototype.AlertValue = function( anyValue ){
  alert( this.Name + " is alerting: " + anyValue );
}


function Init(){
  var objContentDiv = document.getElementById( "content" );
  var objA = null;
  var objTest = new TestClass( "Tester" );

  // This runs the for loop using a LOCAL scope for each iteration. 
  (function loop( intI ){
var intX = intI;
  
if (intI < 10){

  // Create new A element.
  objA = document.createElement( "a" );
  
  // Set A display properties.
  objA.style.display = "block";
  objA.style.backgroundColor = "#F8F8F8";
  objA.style.border = "1px solid #33";
  objA.style.padding = "10px 10px 10px 10px";
  objA.style.color = "#33";
  objA.style.marginBottom = "15px";
  
  // Create text for the link.
  objA.appendChild( document.createTextNode( "I should alert " +
intX + " when clicked" ) );
  
  // Set the href.
  objA.setAttribute( "href", "##" );

  // Set the onclick method.
  objA.onclick = function(){ objTest.AlertValue( intX ) };
  
  // Attach the A to the content.
  objContentDiv.appendChild( objA );


  loop(intI + 1);
}
  
  })(0);
  
}
  
  
// Is the tester class available here (just testing).
alert( "objTest is of type: " + typeof(objTest));
  
  



  


 



Thanks for everyone's help. I think I now see the local scoping issue that I
was dealing with before. I will try to return with a better example.

Cutter,

I like this suggestion:

>> objA.currentI = intI;
>> objA.onclick = function(){ alert( this.currentI ); }; 

This is actually how I deal with this same problem in Flash Action Script
sometimes. However, in Flash I do it on objects, and in JS it always makes
me nervous to try adding data to an object that doesn't inherently have that
attribute.

Asking your question of my javascipt list, the responses were as follows:

Response 2 
 >for (var intI = 0 ; intI < 10 ; intI++){  >> var objA =

Place one "var objA;" before the loop then remove the "var" inside.
Redeclaring a variable is a bad practice that will bite you in other
languages.


 >> objA.onclick = function(){ alert( intI ); };


It's doing its job, it's alerting the value of intI, which is what you left
it. The easiest solution is to add a custom property to the object to hold
the current value of intI:

objA.currentI = intI;
objA.onclick = function(){ alert( this.currentI ); };

Response 3 
 >objA.onclick = new Function ("alert(" + intI + ")" );


This should work, but from what I understand new Function (like eval) must
be compiled on the spot, so there's a (however slight) performance hit.

Bobby,

I cannot seem to get the onCLick to fire in my browser. Granted I am using
IE in Homesite. But, my concern with this solution is that I feel (without
testing) that it is string dependent.  

divCont.setAttribute('onClick', 'alert(' + IntI + ')');

That line is going to try to force intI to a string, which works for simple
values, but will not work with complex values.

Not really for CF, but though someone here could lend some insight 

There is one problem in Javascript that I cannot seem to get a handle on and
it is killling me! I can't seem to get variables to pass by value as I would
hope. Take the following example:

for (var intI = 0 ; intI < 10 ; intI++){ var objA = document.createElement(
"div" );

// Set the click for the link.
objA.onclick = function(){ alert( intI ); };

// Set the link into the body div.
objDiv.appendChild( objA );
}

Now, in my head, each one of those links, when clicked should alert the
appropriate intI value (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.); however, each of them will alert
10 which is the value that broke the FOR loop. It's like they all point to
one variable and then get updated for each loop of the FOR iteration.

I can't seem to find a good solution to this. One method that seems to work,
but is poop is something along the lines of:

// Define a function INSIDE this function.
function GetI( intX ){
return(
function(){ alert(intX); };
);
}

for (var intI = 0 ; intI < 10 ; intI++){ var objA = document.createElement(
"div" );

// Set the click for the link.
objA.onclick = GetI( intX );

// Set the link into the body div.
objDiv.appendChild( objA );
}

This method works as would be expected, though I seem to think that it is
doing the exact same thing. It must be something to do with the scoping.
Since the intI value is getting passed to a local scope (int GetI()), and
then getting passed back, it must be unique (since the local scope of the
GetI() method is created unique of each FOR iteration.

This solution seems truly ganky to me. There has to be a better way. And
this is just a simple example. I have many places where I want to be doing
this with object reference and dynamic event handling. This one simple bumb
is really holding me back!

Please help!!!

objA.onclick = function(){ alert( intI ); };

// Set the link into the body div.
objDiv.appendChild( objA );
}

Now, in my head, each one of those links, when clicked should alert the
appropriate intI value (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.); however, each of them will alert
10 which is the value that broke the FOR loop. It's like they all point to
one variable and then get updated for each loop of the FOR iteration.

I can't seem to find a good solution to this. One method that seems to work,
but is poop is something along the lines of:

// Define a function INSIDE this function.
function GetI( intX ){
return(
function(){ alert(intX); };
);
}

for (var intI = 0 ; intI < 10 ; intI++){ var objA = document.createElement(
"div" );

// Set the click for the link.
objA.onclick = GetI( intX );

// Set the link into the body div.
objDiv.appendChild( objA );
}

This method works as would be expected, though I seem to think that it is
doing the exact same thing. It must be something to do with the scoping.
Since the intI value is getting passed to a local scope (int GetI()), and
then getting passed back, it must be unique (since the local scope of the
GetI() method is created unique of each FOR iteration.

This solution seems truly ganky to me. There has to be a better way. And
this is just a simple example. I have many places where I want to be doing
this with object reference and dynamic event handling. This one simple bumb
is really holding me back!

PS... in your original code

They do. Each of your onclicks triggered the same function that alerted the
same variable. The last time the variable was set, it was 10. So they are
all 10.

Is this what you were going for?








for (IntI = 0; IntI < 10; IntI++)
{
divCont = document.createElement('DIV');
divCont.id = 'div' + IntI;
divCont.appendChild(document.createElement('BR'));
divCont.style.background='ececec';
divCont.style.borderColor = '00';
divCont.style.borderStyle = 'solid';
divCont.style.borderWidth = '1px';
divCont.setAttribute('onClick', 'alert(' + IntI + ')');

document.getElementById('mainContainer').appendChild(divCont);

document.getElementById('mainContainer').appendChild(document.createElement(
'BR'));
}   


The onclick of the divs wont work in IE 6-

RE: OT: Javascript help

[Ben Nadel]

Zaphod,

I think that solution works for strings/numbers, but I would also like this
to work with object refrences ... Something like:

objMenu.onmouseover = function(){
objMenuSystem.Show(this);
} 


The problem here is the same... When the mouse over fires, "objMenuSystem"
is no undefined since it tries to find it reference to the Menu, not the
varaible reference. But then again, if I wanted it to work my way, "this"
would be off too, since it would point to the housing method... Not the
objMenu... Hmmm .. .and ... Dangy!

Re: Javascript help

[Rob Wilkerson]

The loop is fine.  It's difficult to see the braces in the text, but
they're correct.  Maybe you can't pass objects by value?  You would
think that, if it were possible, using the var keyword would ensure a
new variable.

OT: Javascript help

[Ben Nadel]

Not really for CF, but though someone here could lend some insight 

There is one problem in Javascript that I cannot seem to get a handle on and
it is killling me! I can't seem to get variables to pass by value as I would
hope. Take the following example:

for (var intI = 0 ; intI < 10 ; intI++){
var objA = document.createElement( "div" );

// Set the click for the link.
objA.onclick = function(){ alert( intI ); };

// Set the link into the body div.
objDiv.appendChild( objA );
}

Now, in my head, each one of those links, when clicked should alert the
appropriate intI value (0, 1, 2, 3, etc.); however, each of them will alert
10 which is the value that broke the FOR loop. It's like they all point to
one variable and then get updated for each loop of the FOR iteration.

I can't seem to find a good solution to this. One method that seems to work,
but is poop is something along the lines of:

// Define a function INSIDE this function.
function GetI( intX ){
return(
function(){ alert(intX); };
);
}

for (var intI = 0 ; intI < 10 ; intI++){
var objA = document.createElement( "div" );

// Set the click for the link.
objA.onclick = GetI( intX );

// Set the link into the body div.
objDiv.appendChild( objA );
}

This method works as would be expected, though I seem to think that it is
doing the exact same thing. It must be something to do with the scoping.
Since the intI value is getting passed to a local scope (int GetI()), and
then getting passed back, it must be unique (since the local scope of the
GetI() method is created unique of each FOR iteration.

This solution seems truly ganky to me. There has to be a better way. And
this is just a simple example. I have many places where I want to be doing
this with object reference and dynamic event handling. This one simple bumb
is really holding me back!

Please help!!!

Re: Javascript help.

[J W]

Well thats interesting, I have been testing in Firefox all day. S I
fired up the code in IE and noticed a difference.

IE. Works just fine. Cusor at Top
Firefox. Focus is set, but cursor is set at the end of text.

So focus alone doesn't gurantee that the cursor will be at the beginning of
the text cross browser. Intersting. Thats why I was wondering if there was a
way to specifically set the position.

I have been beating my head around for the better part of today trying to
figure this out..

I am prefilling a textarea with some information.

When the page loads, I would like to set focus to the text area and have the
cursor position set to the first character in the textarea with the
prefilled info. Is this even possible or am I just missing something stupid.
I have scoured google to no avail...

RE: CF/JavaScript help on signup

[Bobby Hartsfield]

You can also use the same  statement to display a text message on your
page incase JS is not on.

 

And to be picky...

 



 

  



  alert("Invalid Login Message");



  

  

  

 

  Invalid Login Message

  

  

 



 

  User logged in.

 

 

 

This code ensures that the javascript block is between the 
tags and will also give you a non-js message to make sure the message is
seen by ‘everyone’.

RE: JAVASCRIPT help

[Pascal Peters]

Keep in mind the value property of a select is not supported on all
browsers. I usually consider a textbox/textarea empty if there are only
spaces (I usually trim the values anyway.
Also keep in mind that "title" and "target" are properties of the form.
To avoid mixing up formfields and properties, I always have the
formfield names in uppercase (JS is case sensitive).
Finally, you can set the focus on the field that has an error to help
your user fill in the form.

If CF4 supports replacelist():


mystring="foo to the bar";
lstbad="foo,bar";
lstgood="\foo,\bar";
mystring=replacelist(mystring,lstbad,lstgood);


This is probably not a very efficient approach if your code is heavily
trafficked, but nothing else comes to mind...

CF and JavaScript HELP - Maybe OT?

[John Grubb]

Tough day. Alzheimers is acting up. I have the following _javascript_ code:



	

		

		

		c=#currentrow#-1;//599

		var nopt = new Option();

		nopt.value = "#valuedata#";

		nopt.text = "#optiontext#";

		parent.frames[0].document.all.individuallist1.options[c] = nopt;

	



Everything works fine until I get a non alpha-numeric character, i.e., ".", """, "'", "/", "&", "(", ")", in the #WholeName# variable. Then, _javascript_ bombs and returns an error: "error expected ';'". 

Can someone help me with handling regular expressions in _javascript_, so the above code will accept special characters in the name? Grateful doesn't begin to describe how I'll feel.

John

mouseOver (red button) and mouseOut (white button). What I can not
achieve or I dont know how to do is when link is active then display
image which I am using on mouseOver

 




 

    if (browserVer == 1) {

    b1 = new Image(107,36);

    b1.src = "">
    b2 = new Image(107,36);

    b2.src = "">
    }



    //image swapping function:

    function hiLite(imgDocID, imgObjName, comment) {

    if (browserVer == 1) {

    document.images[imgDocID].src = "" + ".src");    

    window.status = comment; return true;

    }}

    //end hiding -->



 

 
Thats where I am using the function in CF

 

 Login')"

RE: Javascript Help

[Michael T. Tangorre]

I would use the function called split() which makes an array based on a
delimiter passed in (in your case the comma). Then you can loop over the
array or access the elements as you need:

 
var x = 'test1,test2,test3,test4';

 
arElements = x.split(',');

 
would result in...

 
arElements[0] = 'test1'
arElements[1] = 'test2'
arElements[2] = 'test3'
arElements[3] = 'test4'

 
HTH,

 
Mike

hello




Should work in IE4+(pc) and Gecko. I'd do this a bit differently if
you wanted to extend it beyond just bold tags though. Just replace
tfield with tfield_input in the onclick for it to work for the single
line input.

I'm not sure how well this will work in Netscape...  but it definately works
in IE 5.0 and above...


function doBoldText(){
var mySelection = document.selection.createRange();
var tmpText = mySelection.text;
tmpText = "<b>" + tmpText + "</b>";
mySelection.text = tmpText;
}

Just as an FYI, you can also use window.opener.location.reload()

Either of these will give you slightly different results, so it's a matter
of figuring out which is the right tool for this particular job. :)

RE: Slight OT: JavaScript Help

[S . Isaac Dealey]

Just as an FYI, you can also use window.opener.location.reload()
or place onfocus="location.reload()" in the body tag of the page which opens
the popup.

Either of these will give you slightly different results, so it's a matter
of figuring out which is the right tool for this particular job. :)

Hi Mark:

opener.formName.selectName[opener.formName.selectName.options.length] =
new Option("text", "value");

(where 'text' is the text that shows up in the drop-down, and 'value' is
the value of the option).

RE: Slight OT: JavaScript Help

[Mark A. Kruger - CFG]

Ok - how would I do that?  could I use the window.opener object like
"window.opener.form[index]"  type syntax to add?

I would need to be able to append a new item to an existing select box. The
"value" would be an int and the text would be a string.  In other words, in
html:  My pet shop - I have to be able to set
both of these items. I'm sure it's possible, but I've not done it before.
