onClick and Visible problems in NN
Hi All
Can somebody please let me know why the following 2 bits of code won't work
in NN 4.7x:
1. onClick problems
I have created the above so that when the user clicks the IMG it goes to my
JavaScript function called "ordering()" . I would have thought that because
it is an tag it would auto-change to Hand cursor when I move over it,
but it don't.
I have created the above "ShowHand()" function to do the following, but
Netscape will not change the hand to a cursor:
function ShowHand(w) {
if (w = 1){parent.chooser.products.style.cursor = "hand";}
if (w = 0){parent.chooser.products.style.cursor = "default";}
}
It seems simple enough so what am I doing wrong??
2. Visibility problems
When the user clicks the IMG that I mentioned in point 1, it is supposed to
dothe following function but it don't:
function ordering() {
parent.title.winform.winloc.style.visibility = "visible";
parent.title.winform.seeme.style.visibility = "visible";
parent.viewer.location=parent.title.winform.winloc.options[parent.title.winf
orm.winloc.selectedIndex].value
}
All this function does is make an IMG and a SELECT box become visible, but
it don't work. In fact I can't make them invisible (style = "hidden" in the
tags of each type) to start with. I thought NN supported the visibile style
attribute?
After the visible its then supposed to click to teh page that is selected in
the SELECT box. To see this in better action, please have a look at
http://www.bardwells.co.uk to see what I mean.
Can somebody please clarify where I am going wrong on this as it is driving
me mad.
By the way, all this works perfect in IE 4 or greater.
Regards
Robbie
Keyboard shortcut to mark-as-read change permanent?
I just started using the 02/05 build and noticed that the keyboard shortcut to mark messages as read has changed from the simple 'A' to 'Ctrl-Shift-C' - is this change permanent? If so, why? It's hard as heck to enter! :-( Hoping someone changes it back, Tom

How to apply themes in mozilla 0.7?
Hi there, I'm using mozilla 7.0 that build with svg and the one without it. The problem is in both of them. Since version 0.7 there is no apply button anymore when I select a new theme. So I thought clicking OK will result the same. Nope. It doesn't. Can anybody tell me how to apply a new theme then? How has the same problem? Thanks

The n.p.m.mailnews group would be a better for this, though. There was a long discussion on the topic, please read old posts before jumping in, and maybe even look up the bug. -Dan Veditz

Not that ignorance is an excuse, but I wasn't aware of that newsgroup, nor did I think of the change a bug fix - so I didn't think to look it up in the bug database. Thanks for the suggestions. Tom

blank space does not encode in Netscape.
Hello all, I am having a problem with the encoding in netscape. When I pass along a URL line with a blank space in it i.e. "www.test.com?theblank=blank space", Netscape errors out. In IE, the line is converted to "www.test.com?theblank=blank%20space" and works just fine. Is there a server-side fix for this ? Any help would be appreciated. Thanx Greg
Re: blank space does not encode in Netscape.
Greg, URLs may not contain blanks. As you've discovered, IE is aware of this and covers up lots of what are really user errors. The solution is to use the %20 notation where you now have a blank. You did not describe how the line that you "pass along" is generated. If you did that, someone might be able to help with specifics on how to get the proper string into the URL. Um, it is generally considered to be bad form to post the same question into multiple newsgroups. It's probably not good for me to reply to all those groups either, so you've embarrassed both of us...

Unfortunately, it _is_ true that this file must be deleted to start Mozilla in some (rare) circumstances. I personally have seen this quite a number of times, and in the win32 newsgroup you will find that just one hour or so after your post, it was suggested to a user that they remove these files - and sure enough, they could again start Mozilla. Indeed, I have a mozregistry.dat file in my inbox that causes such a crash, and intend seeing if I can find exactly who is hanging... Mark.

The first post in the thread to which you refer says James he had *already* tried deleting mozregistry.dat and it hadn't helped. The files he did delete that helped were the profile files. Those are notorious for causing problems. Deleting mozregistry.dat was sometimes helpful in the past when it contained the profile data; it does no longer. > Indeed, I have a mozregistry.dat file in my inbox that causes such a > crash, and intend seeing if I can find exactly who is hanging... Was this file generated before or after the profile data was moved out of that file? -Dan Veditz

Anyway, it simply isn't a well-formed URL, i.e. it does not comply with the URL syntax as defined (in RFC 2396). And I don't mean the http:// part, which _really_ needs to be there if you are about to put the URL into an HREF value for example. I mean the space character. >Netscape errors out. In IE, the line is converted to >"www.test.com?theblank=blank%20space" and works just fine. I'm not sure I see what conversion you mean, but in a URL, a space character must _always_ be encoded as %20, and it is not a browser's job to do such an operation e.g. for an HREF value. You, or the person or program that writes an HREF value, needs to do the encoding. _Only_ when a URL originates from the submission of a form with method="get" is it a browser's duty to perform the encoding, since for such a situation, this is part of the defined form handling by browsers. >Is there a server-side fix for this ?
