Change Movie with JavaScript

Hi,
I have a Flash Media Server that is serving about 10
different video clips on demand. I have player that's embedded into
a web page which streams one of those clips. I'd like to be able to
click on a button and have Javascript interact with the player so
it loads and streams a new movie based on parameters passed to it.
My movie loads using the AC_FL_RunContent() class in
AC_RunActiveContent.js which was generated when I published my .swf
file for the web.
How can I use Javascript to access those parameters so that
when a user clicks a button the player gets updated with a
different stream from the server?
Thanks in advance for the advice, kind words and heckles for
the newbie.

Changing prefs with javascript (CS1-CS5)

Items created on one side of the spread need to be duplicated and moved to the other side (template information, etc.). We need the preferences in InDesign CS1-CS5 to remember layers when pasting during the running of the script, but we don't want to permanently hijack the customers preferences.
Is there a way to 1) check a preference setting, 2) apply a change if needed, and then 3) return the setting to its previous state only if changed?
Thanks in advance,
Seth

I'm not sure if this was even a preference pre-CS3, and, if so, if it always has been exposed to the scripting engine. In CS4, it is scriptable as a boolean value:
app.clipboardPreferences.pasteRemembersLayers
.. and the usual way of working around nasty user preferences is this:
1. Start of script:
originalValue = app.clipboardPreferences.pasteRemembersLayers;
app.clipboardPreferences.pasteRemembersLayers = true;
2. Do Your Stuff.
3. End of script:
app.clipboardPreferences.pasteRemembersLayers = orginalValue;

Change page attribute with JavaScript

Hi,
hope someone can help.
Is it possible to change a BSP page attribute with JavaScript??
I have a JavaScript array with some serialnumbers. After push a save button, i want to save the array data into a page attribute.
Some ideas?
Regards Anton

Hi,
The only way of passing vars from JS to page attributes is submitting them via (hidden) values in a form or via params in an URL.
Alternatively, you can try to let JS store things in a client cookie and let the BSP read that cookie.
I didn't try that out yet though.

I need to change the sum of a column's total with javascript.

Hi,
The HTML output of a SUM column is as follows:
<td align="center" headers="COST" class="t2data"><b> 827.49</b></td>
I need to change the sum total with javascript.
The initial loading of the page SUMs the DB values correctly. Then onchange JS for a couple of factors may change one items COST.
When that one item's COST changes I need to reSUM the total with JS.
I was trying the following.. I don't know JS to well.
     var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('td');
     for (var xtd in tds) {
     //alert('Here:'+xtd.headers);
     if (xtd.headers=="COST") {
     // you found the element, do what you need
     alert(xtd.innerHTML);
     After inserting the above code into my javascript is popups up
     my alert, "Here:undefined"
     and never hits the alert(xtd.innerHTML);

Hi Ya'll,
I got the following working. See any problems?
headers=="COST" actually showed up in each row of the whole column, including the SUM. So it ended up being great so I could sum it in the JS.
I had to change the column type to NUMBER from VARCHAR2 for the initial SUM to work, so adding any formating to the SQL was not good. It looks pretty much what Andy has though... I found a slight hesitation it it though.. I have to work out a bug that prints the old total instead of the first.
var ltotal =0;
var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('td');
for (var k=0; k<tds.length; k++) {
if (tds[k].headers=="COST") {
var inputObjs= tds[k].getElementsByTagName('input');
if(inputObjs.length>0) {
for (var j=0;j<inputObjs.length;j++) {
ltotal+= parseFloat(inputObjs[j].value);
//alert(inputObjs[j].value);
//alert(ltotal);
}else{
tds[k].innerHTML=ltotal;

Change TextView value with Javascript

Hello,
I'm trying to find a way of changing the value of an HTMLB TextView on the client side with javascript.
Do you know how to do that ? Cannot work it out...
Many thanks
Nicolas

Hi,
this can be a bit tricky, because you have to know, how to access the element. that means you need an unique id or an absolute position of the TextView-element
if you can see, how to access the specific element in your client-pagesource, a possible javascript could be:
document.getElementById("<id of element>").firstChild.nodeValue="My new Text"
or access by name/count of the element:
document.getElementsByName("<name of element>")[#position of occurance].firstChild.nodeValue="My new Text"

      Morocco           ma
     Portugal           pt
Thanks

Hi,
Listboxes and dropdowns can be scripted against without too much difficulty.
You would need something like this in the click event of the button:
listbox1.rawValue = null; //clear previous choice
listbox1.clearItems(); //clear the list items
listbox1.addItem("Moocco", "ma"); //add new list items
listbox1.additem("Portugal", "pt");
Hope that helps,
Niall

Changing applet parameters with Javascript

Is it possible to have an applet read a param value which has been changed with Javascript after the applet loads?
I've tried changing the param value in this way, but the applet doesn't read the new value. It reads the default value in the HTML when the applet loads, and getParameter is in the main loop of the applet which runs and updates other (internal) values fine...

Well that page says that param values can't be changed at run-time. Never mind though because I read some more and found out how to implement a method in the applet (which can be called from Javascript) that reads the host page's DOM, thereby achieving the same result.
Thanks for the pointer.

Button with Javascript appearance changed.

Hi,
I created button with javascript from
Re: Button and Function
Everything works fine, But button looks different now
No appearance of button is there & button label is displayed in orange color.
Have i missed something or i will never like original.

I have done some changes suggested by ATD for another thread.
In your app, through Shared Components, Templates create a new button template based on a copy of an existing one (pick whichever existing template you prefer, the normal Button may be ok). When the new template is created, edit it. You should see something like the following in the "Template" setting:
a href="#LINK#" class="t12Button" #BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#>#LABEL#</a
There may be other HTML around this, but this is the important part as it is the actual button itself. Change this to:
a href="#" class="t12Button" #BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#>#LABEL#</a
Now, on your button on the page, change it to use your new button template. In the Button Attributes setting, add in:
onclick="javascript:checkText();"
everything works fine except appearance of button.

Can a display image field be changed with javascript

I have a select list (P3_RECON_CONDITION). when it changes It triggers javascript..
in that javascript I would like it to change a Display Image field (P3_RECON_COLOR) without having to refresh the whole page..
P3_RECON_COLOR is a Display image filed that gets its image from a blob from SQL:
select color from projstat.condition_color, projstat.project where condition_color.condition = nvl(:P3_RECON_CONDITION,'W') and project.job_piece = :P3_JOB_PIECE
the display field works now, but only for what the P3_RECON_CONDITION is when the page is loaded..

yes, I tried that, but couldn't figure out how to do the: " dynamic action refresh the item P3_RECON_COLOR"
I have
Event: Change
Selection Type: Item
Item: P3_RECON_CONDITION (the select list)
no condition
TRUE ACTION: Refresh
Fire when True:
Selection Type: Item
Item: P3_RECON_COLOR (the display image)
(if I change the action to submit page.. it does fire.. but the refresh item does nothing..)

Opening document in frame with javascript

Hello.
I've got problem with javascript on Safari 4 (both and on Win and on MacOS), while trying to open html document in frame.
Reproducing the problem is quite difficult, so I'll begin with html source.
I have one frame in index.html file:
+<iframe id="topframe" name="topframe" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" width="980" height="580" src="form1.html";></iframe>+
form1.html looks like this:
+<input type="button" id="action" name="action" value="Make action" onclick = "document.getElementById('actionframe').src='dir/action.html';">+
+<input type="button" id="sel" name="sell" value="..." onclick = "top.frames[['topframe']].location.replace('form2.html');">+
action.html source is:
+<script type="text/javascript">parent.document.getElementById('sel').click();</script>+
So, when you open index.html, you see two buttons: first opens form2.html in the same frame, second opens dir/action.html in other frame. While dir/action.html just "clicks" the first button.
Basically both buttons does the same.
The problem is, that Safari fails to open form2.html with first button. Somehow Safari thinks that form2.html is in /dir/, like action.html is. So you get this error:
*Not Found*
*The requested URL /safari_test/dir/form2.html was not found on this server.*
This example works on all major browsers, except Safari 4. Even on Safari 3 it works fine.
I made an example, so you can test it here:
http://82.135.245.49/safari_test/
Message was edited by: Elvinas

Have you tried putting the full URL instead of just form2.html?
Second option is to move the file to that directory and change it for the other browsers.
Third option is to stop using frames altogether, they are generally considered bad practice and can cause issues with browsers that aren't IE.

How can i optimize my SEARCH ENGINE???I use godaddy.i contact them and they give me this conclusion:Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript. the content on the pages, (photo gallery.....

conclusion from godaddy:
Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript.
the content on the pages, (photo gallery, My Recipes/Blog, History, Friends) need to be formatted to HTML, PHP or CSS. No search engines (google, Yahoo, Bing) can crawl//analyze webpages built with javascript.
See if Apple allows iweb to create the pages in HTML format and ask how to make those changes.
I spend more then 1 hour on the phone with them but we didn't find the solution...
please i need help because like this nobody can rich my website...
www.chefdiego.com
thank you

The part of iWeb pages that give the search engines problem is the navbar. That's javascript based. One way to get around that is to create another blank page in the site that's not included in the navbar.
Add a text based navbar in that page with just the other pages in the site.
Also you can use that page for creating the sitemap for Google at Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator.
Have you let Google know your site exists? This website describes how to get it recognized: Get your iWeb website found in search engines like Google Yahoo MSN and Bing.

JSF problems with Javascript

Hi everyone!!
The situation is this: I have a datable with one of its columns make an h:commanLink, which has two f:params, its actionListener is a function of a ManagedBean. This is JSF, not MyFaces. In IE, When the link is pressed, it shows a javascript error: " 'elements.idVar' is null or it's not an object ", however in Firefox, it works perfectly. I have been looking for the problem and it have to do with this:
</form><a href="# onclick="clearFormHiddenParams_formResultado('formResultado');document.forms['formResultado'['formResultado:_idcl'].value='formResultado:dtTablaResultados:0:_id10';document.forms['formResultado']['idVar'].value='37';document.forms['formResultado']['idMun'].value='168'; document.forms['formResultado'].submit(); return false;"><span id="formResultado:dtTablaResultados:0:itColumna3" title="AREA COSECHADA EN CULTIVOS PERMANENTES">1,230</span></a></td>
</tr>
<tr class="standardTable_Row2">
<td><span id="formResultado:dtTablaResultados:1:itColumna1" style="text-align:center;" title="Código Municipio">718</span></td>
<td><a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="javascript:window.opener.opener.showLink('SASAIMA')"><span id="formResultado:dtTablaResultados:1:itColumna2_l" title="Municipio">SASAIMA</span></a></td>
<td><form id="formResultado:dtTablaResultados:1:_id9" method="post" action="/ConsultaEstadisticasGeo/resultadoConsulta.jsf" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded">
<input type="hidden" name="com.sun.faces.VIEW" id="com.sun.faces.VIEW" value="_id39:_id41" /><input type="hidden" name="formResultado:dtTablaResultados:1:_id9" value="formResultado:dtTablaResultados:1:_id9" /><input type="hidden" name="idVar" /><input type="hidden" name="idMun" /><input type="hidden" name="formResultado:_idcl" />
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
the way JSF manage the params. The error, acdording to the message shonw by IE is in this line: curForm.elements['idVar'].value = null;
The code of the JSP is this:
<h:commandLink     actionListener="#{consultaEstadisticasMB.detalleEstadistica}">
     <f:param name="idVar" value="#{consultaEstadisticasMB.idColumna3}" id="idVar" />
     <f:param name="idMun" value="#{registro[0]}" id="idMun" />
     <h:outputText title="#{consultaEstadisticasMB.columna3}" id="itColumna3" value="#{registro[2]}" />
</h:commandLink>
Waht can i do? (Not using MyFaces, because I can�t do that)
Thanks for your answers!!

I have run into this same problem with javascript and the colon. I am not sure if the colon is a valid character for a javascript identifier (one would think the RI developers would have checked it out though!?!).
Anyway, my workaround is to search through the Javascript DOM for the widget you want to obtain a reference to, using part of its id. After all, you know its id, you just can't use it as a javascript reference. In your Javascript code, do something like:
    var inputWidgets = document.getElementsByTagName("input");
    var targetInput;
    for(var i = 0; i < inputWidgets.length; i++)
       var inputId = inputWidgets.id;
if(inputId.indexOf("yourInputId") != -1)
targetInput = inputWidgets[i];
break;
It's a lot of effort to just get a reference to a form widget....but it works (I pasted in the code and changed it a bit, so it might not work as is, but at least it demonstrates the idea).

How to change CSS if Javascript disabled. Please help.

Hi all,
So my pursuit for accessible and good looking pages
continues.....
I am working on a new website: XHTML, external CSS, PHP
driven.
I decided to use the nice Project Seven vertical scroll menu
for a looping newsbox. Works great with Javascript enabled and
opens as it should with Javascript disabled. However, I have the
scroll menu inside a div called "newsbox", which resides inside a
floated div. This of course causes the content to extend beyond the
main container.
Now to fix this issue what I would like to do is have the
Project Seven menu display when Javascript is enabled and when
Javascript is disabled I want to change the CSS of "newsbox" to
'overflow: scroll' so that the box still displays as a scroll box.
(This would keep my current design looking nice.)
I've looked at many solutions online but I need for it to
validate in XHTML.
All I want to be able to do is change that one line of CSS
for the "newsbox" div if Javascript is disabled.
I know this isn't really Dreamweaver related but I was hoping
someone might have a simple fix for this.
Any help or links to relevant online tutorials greatly
appreciated!
Thanks,
Rachelle

Hi Rachelle
Yes it should be inside a script element in head, but you
can't call it
before "newsbox" is available. You'd need to call it onload
or move the
snippet in the code, after "newsbox".

Trigger Save As... dialog with Javascript?

I have a script that makes some significant changes to an Illustrator file and would like to have a "Save As..." dialog pop up at the end of the script to give the user a chance to save the changes in a location of their choosing.
I know how to trigger a Save As dialog box with AppleScript using GUI scripting, is there a way of doing this with Javascript?

In short I think you answer is NO… There is no 'showing dialog' parameter in either language. You can prompt for a location pretty much the same as 'choose folder' in AppleScript. You can however construct your own dialog using ScriptUI and have the user input some options and a place to save. I am currently working on these myself for use my scripts… Here is an example of some for Photoshop…
First dialog offers a selection of File Format to use:
On choosing you get a second dialog (with limited options) for input:
