Changing Text on a web page not using textbox
Hi I am new to programming in Javascript and am just needing a bit of a hand using an onChange event to change some normal text in the middle of a web page. The exmaple is if you have a text box that you can enter in a dollar amount and then once you click out side of the box it will change the total at the bottom of the web page (which is in noraml text) I don't want to put the total at the bottom into a form box to make this work.
Thanks
Davo
One way is using the property innerhtml, but I think this only works properly in Internet Explorer 6. I send you a reference that could helps you:

Link to specific text from another web page
Hello all
Is is possible to link from one page to a specific piece of
text in another web page in the same site? I have tried named
anchor, hyperlink, etc but it just goes to the page rather than the
text. I don't know if I am attempting the impossible. Can you help?

It depends on your settings for how you copy/paste. See your
PREFERENCES
for those. I don't get such things because my settings are
'tight' in that
they are restrictive to what stying is carried into the page.
> How I do this in a nav bar?
Change this -
.nav {
font: bold normal 14px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-transform: none;
color: #003300;
font-weight: bold;
a.nav:link {
font: normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-transform: none;
color: #003300;
text-decoration: none;
a.nav:visited {
font: normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-transform: none;
color: #003300;
text-decoration: none;
to this -
.nav {
text-align:center;
.nav a {
font: bold normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #030;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration:none;
margin-right:35px;
and then change this -
<div align="center"><a href="index.html"
class="nav">Home</a> <span
class="nav">About
Us</span> <a
href="impact_HE.html" class="nav">Impact of HE
Proposal</a> <a
href="purpose_ED.html"
class="nav">The Purpose of
ED</a> <a
href="procedures.html"
class="nav">Procedures </a> <a
href="what_can_we_do.html" class="nav">What Can We
Do?</a></div>
to this -
<div class="nav"><a
href="index.html">Home</a><a
href="about_us.html">About
Us</a><a href="impact_HE.html">Impact of HE
Proposal</a><a
href="purpose_ED.html">The Purpose of ED</a><a
href="procedures.html">Procedures</a><a
href="what_can_we_do.html">What Can
We Do?</a></div>
But an even better way would be to make the menu an unordered
list, like
this -
<ul>
<li><a
href="index.html">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="about_us.html">About
Us</a></li>
<li><a href="impact_HE.html">Impact of HE
Proposal</a></li>
<li><a href="purpose_ED.html">The Purpose of
ED</a></li>
<li><a
href="procedures.html">Procedures</a></li>
<li><a href="what_can_we_do.html">What Can We
Do?</a></li>
</ul>
And use this CSS -
.nav {
text-align:center;
.nav ul {
list-style-type:none;
margin:0;
padding:0;
overflow:hidden;
.nav li {
float:left;
width:150px;
margin-right:5px;
border-right:1px solid green;
.nav a {
font: bold normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #030;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration:none;
If you want to make the current page look like it doesn't
have a link, then
do this -
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html"
id="home">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="about_us.html" id="about">About
Us</a></li>
<li><a href="impact_HE.html" id="impact">Impact
of HE Proposal</a></li>
<li><a href="purpose_ED.html" id="purpose">The
Purpose of ED</a></li>
<li><a href="procedures.html"
id="procedure">Procedures</a></li>
<li><a href="what_can_we_do.html" id="what">What
Can We Do?</a></li>
</ul>
and add this to each page (use the proper ID) -
a#about {
cursor:default;
/* any other styles you want to make the current page show
> I am being a complete idiot today (maybe it's because

Make the changes manually in code view.
If you are getting the idea that you will need to ramp your
HTML and CSS
skills to do this stuff, you are right on target!

Inserting Text into a web page
I need to know how to insert text into a webpage, like google, search, and then get the result.
Using the wonders of the internet I have been able to display a webpage, and see the HTML code that is generated, however, I don't know how to insert text into a web page, or get the result.
Any help, or pointing into the right direction would be appreciated.What do you mean by insert into web page? Like
prefill data on a form?
Or like a search on google? What are you using to
do this?
I am guessing based on the info you gave in your
question, that you might want to just look at the url
of the page. For example search on google and you
will see the text entered into the search field
inside the url. Learn from that and develop a url
that will search for the text you want to insert.
If I am not understanding you, please clarify.Right now, I'm using the URL to search for me, which will work, but the search can be different from website to website, and I would like something closer to an automated form filler if I need to implement something like this again.
Of course, something like an automated form filler would probably work better, if I were able to retreve the results -

I have tried changing ssid for the 2 channels, I have tried disabling wifi on the router, and using apple time capsule as the router, everything seems to result in the same problem, you cannot browse web pages on mobile devices.
previously i had adsl from bt and didnt have these issues.

Publisher cucm web page not displayed and DB not accessible IP phones working on Subscriber but I can't change any settings.Cisco Tomcat service not working and I can't restarting. (ver. 7.1.5)If you cannot change any config then it's more than just not being able to use a webpage, there must be some problem with the ccm/DB services on the PUB.
SSH to the server and see if there are error messages, I'd suggest a whole reboot.

How can I type over existing text on a web page?
I would like to be able to type over existing text on a web page. This can be done by hitting the "insert" key in several applications; however, it does not work in Firefox.
I'm running Firefox 31.0 and Windows 7.Unfortunately that is not possible in Firefox.
The insert key is not supported (i.e. Firefox is always in insert mode), so you will have to delete the old text and type the new text. -
I just recently installed Firefox for the first time. It seems nice and quick. The version is reported as: "10.0.1".
I wanted to save some text from a web page, so navigated to that page, selected the text, and pressed the Control-C combination to COPY the selected text to the buffer. For example, the text I selected looked something like this:
Harry
Ron
Hermione
Hagrid
Albus
NOTE: Each line of text has a small icon to the left of the text.
It is not reasonable to COPY and PASTE each line individually, as there can be hundreds of lines of data. I recall, however, that
doing a COPY and PASTE on this data into Microsoft's Excel will produce cells which have the icons included in the cell, but unfortunately one cannot can't get rid of them! At least I've never found a way to remove them, but that's another issue. :)
Once I'd done the COPY operation I switched to a Notepad window and did a PASTE operation. To my surprise, the text from each line was duplicated. It looked like this:
Harry Harry
Ron Ron
Hermione Hermione
Hagrid Hagrid
Albus Albus
Thinking that there might be something unusual about the web page I looked at the source, but it appeared "normal" -- that is, as expected.
Note: I have done this operation several times before, and have never seen this occur before.
Note: In the actual data some of the lines have quoted text in them. Curiously there is weird behavior on these lines. In some cases the entire line is shown only once. (These occur at the top of the line, and the quoted text is at the beginning of the name.)
When quoted text appears "later" in the name, in some cases the quoted text is duplicated, and in other cases the quoted text is missing altogether! I have also noticed an error with the quoted text, and so will be reporting that to the web site which generates the HTML.
Note that each line of "text" is "anchor text", so if I click on a name the browser navigates to a page for that name.
I believe that the problem is that the COPY operating in Firefox is not simply copying the visible text, but also the ALT=
Below is a sample of what the source HTML looks like:
<a class="lnk" target="_blank" href="http://details.aspx?id=Harry">
<img width="16" height="16" alt="Harry" class="tb_icon" src="http://.../Harry.gif"/>
<span>Harry</span></a>
<br/>
(Because of the true length of the lines in the source HTML, I have stripped out the actual URL of the site.)
To make sure I wasn't imaging this difference I repeated the process within Internet Explorer. In that browser I did not get duplicated data.Try:

How do I copy text from a web page in Safari?
I've searched up and down and can't find the answer to this simple question.
There is a UI element that I want to copy to the clipboard and then paste into Excel. The UI element is:
static text of group 104 of UI element 1 of scroll area 1 of group 4 of window "Account Summary"
The contents of this static text on the web page is "$1,000.00"
How can I copy this to the clipboard?
I've tried:
select static text of group 104 of UI element 1 of scroll area 1 of group 4 of window "Account Summary"
keystroke "c" using command down
keystroke "l" using command down
keystroke "v" using command down
but it doesn't work. "Select" doesn't actually seem to select anything. However, when I run this from within Script Editor, in the Results Window I get:
{static text "$1000.00" of group 104 of UI element 1 of scroll area 1 of group 4 of window "Account Summary" of application process "Safari" of application "System Events"}
... I'm confused as to what this is telling me. All I want is to copy this value to the clipboard. Any suggestions???
Thanks,
JeffTry this:
set the clipboard to item 1 of (get name of (static text of group 104 of UI element 1 of scroll area 1 of group 4 of window "Account Summary" of application process "Safari"))

N8 Browser 'Web: Page not found'
My default browser are having trouble to load pages. If I use a bookmark or a link from Social all I get is 'Web: Page not found. Please check address'. If I try some other bookmarks its the same until one works and then the other ones start to work as well.
I have Opera and Opera mini installed and they work fine.Hey Nokia N8 has no porblem of web browser.
The issue that we all faced was connection , we page not found etc...WHEN we click on any link in social network and also in application like youtube.
The solution is go to connectivety, destinations and there in delete all settings except your LAN ( do it once to check that I am right and your phone browser works perfect).. once done then browse links and application on net and there you go....
Now the problem was b'cos of settings from your mobile operator so get that correct... and that will also work...
