Is the appearance of Javascript alerts modifiable in Firefox 4.0?

Firefox 4.0 allows users to do a lot of customizing, which is great. Does this extend to the appearance of Javascript alerts?
Unlike Firefox 3.6, in version 4.0 when an alert pops up, the underlying web page is darkened, half opaque and half transparent. This focuses the user's attention on the alert box. Is there a way for me to change this setting to be 20% opaque, 80% transparent? That would make it easier for me to see what the alert is trying to tell me about the underlying web page.

You can use code in [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/ Stylish] or add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] below the @namespace line to change the background color and the transparency.
Some examples (first is the current default; only use one):
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
tabmodalprompt { background-color: rgba(25, 25, 25, 0.5) !important; }
tabmodalprompt { background-color: rgba(224, 224, 224, 0.1) !important; }
tabmodalprompt { background-color: transparent !important; }
</nowiki></pre>

Change appearance of javascript alerts

Is there a way to change the appearance of javascript alert message boxes in FF4 (default theme)? The new design is so different from Windows standards that I can't use them for screen shots (I'm a developer).

You can toggle the pref prompts.tab_modal.enabled to false on the about:config with a double click.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

How can i change the style of javascript alert

how to change the alert style of javascript is there any way to change the style of alert window please mail me at [email protected]

There is NO way to do this.
Alerts from Javascript is a browser native call. Look and feel depends on implementing browser.

Javascript alert boxes are wrapped in Windows 7 with IE 8

I can't count the number of JavaScript alert boxes I have throughout my systems and they have always made the transition between IE browsers from 6 to 8 without a hitch. Without a hitch until I setup my first Windows 7 machine. It is a 64 system that has both 32 & 64 bit IE browsers.
It doesn't matter which of the two versions I use, the JavaScript messages that I have so carefully crafted with just the proper layout are now wrapped. The resultant text in the new W7 popups is almost unintelligible because it is so badly scrambled/wrapped on the new white background.
Since an alert box is simplicty itself, there is no way that I can think of to change the inherent size of the box.
Has anyone else notice this phenomena??? If so, do you have a way around it short of redoing all of the text in the effected boxes???

XP machine's JavaScript Alert popup in IE 8
W7 machine's JavaScript Alert popup in IE 8 with wrapped text

HMM I have the same problem. My researches suggest that the Zone.Identifier ADS is still being used for the internet zone, but not the Intranet zone. I too can get an intranet location out of IE, but not by querying Zone.Identifier eg using Powershell. This
issue is present in XP as well as Win 7. It appears to extend to trusted zone ids.
One hypothesis is that this is being stored in hidden form to prevent zone ids that decrease security being applied by malware.
I had thought that maybe the intranet zone id was only present during download - but your experiment suggests otherwise.

I request an url and get a javascript alert back from the server. The javascript alert triggers that is i get a popup where I can only press ok. If i do not press ok i can not do anything else. the safari menu's are greyed out. if i do press ok i get redirected and i can not read the javascript page with your suggestion.
what i want is read the source for that javascript alert so i know what it says (my filemaker database that is) but because that option is greyed out i am stuck.

When my Firefox language settings are fr_fr or fr_ca Firefox does not display the e with acute accent character correctly when it is displayed in a javascript alert box. However, it does display it correctly when my language settings are just fr. Please t

Firefox does not display the e with acute accent character correctly from a javascript alert box when my browser language settings are fr_ca or fr_fr. However, it does it correctly when my browser language setting is fr. How do i get it to display e with acute accent and other iso8859 characters correctly in a javascript alert box when my browser language settings are fr_fr and fr_ca?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Use Unicode (UTF-8) for those characters.
Then you will always be sure that they are displayed correctly.

Modifying the appearance of the search box, the search button, and the submit button for web forms

I'm trying to modify the appearance of the search box, the search button, and the submit button for web forms by modifying the CSS on Stylesheets. None of the tags I'm using (e.g. .webform .cat_button) seem to be working. What are the correct tags for those three elements?

When you generate the help you can select / deselect the buttons that are displayed.

Javascript alert script needed when calculation does not equal 100

I have created a fillable form and have a total box which I've set to calulate the sum of Field1, Field2, Field3 and Field4
which works well.
I would like to add a javascript alert if the total amount does not add to exactly 100 to stop the user submitting the form or moving to next question.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you

Hi try67,
I have implemented successfully the following:
event.value = ''; // clear field
// get the values of field 1 and 2 as string
var sField1 = this.getField("field 1").value.toString();
var sField2 = this.getField("field 2").value.toString();
// adjust for a field being 100 and the other is null
if (sField1 == 100 & sField2 == '') sField2 = "0";
if (sField2 == 100 & sField1 == '') sField1 = "0";
// do only if field 1 and 2 are not null
if(sField1 != '' & sField2 != '') {
event.value = Number(sField1) + Number(sField2);
if (event.value != 100) app.alert("Fields 1 and 2 must sum to 100!", 1, 0);
} // end not empty
Just wondered if you can let me know what I need to add to stop the form being submitted(email submit button) if the amount is not 100?
So the same alert appears ("Fields 1 and 2 must sum to 100!")
Currently if the fields exceed or are below 100, then the alert message ("Fields 1 and 2 must sum to 100!")
appears once and you can still tab to next field, or click on next field or submit the pdf.
I was hoping to add validation on submitto be similar to required fields where you are alerted if not filled in and cannot submit until you imputted the correct calculation sum up to 100?

Javascript alert in Web Planning - timing when it pops up?

Hi all,
Javascript alerts such as
alert('Layout not available, check your header combinations?')
are easy to set up using the text component (html=true) in the web interface builder.
My problem is that when using 'Tabs' (tab component), if you navigate between the tabs and your alert condition is activated, then the alert appears BEFORE the rest of the screen is rendered.
Normally, the use of the 'onload' html statement in the <body> tag allows one to ensure some event only happens AFTER the entire page is downloaded/rendered into the web, but, because of the nature of our web BSP's used for planning web interfaces, it is really difficult to influence this html attribute.....!!
In simple words, on navigation from one tab to another, does anyone out there know how to make my popups only popup AFTER all images have been rendered into the web page.....rather than BEFORE......??
My guess is not one of you even know what I am talking about, eh?
Many regards,
Rael

Rael, there was a lot of requirements through my personal experience, which cannot be accomplished fully in WIB. And very often these requirements were very critical to client.
So just all web-planning applications, that I did, were extended through se80.
And this is quite normal approach, because even SAP itself recommends development of own planning interfaces in case of complex requirements to user interface.
>because the changes can be lost
The necessary additions: buttons, layouts and so on can be made manually in se80 at any time later.

Javascript alert recording and testing

I have a form on one of my recorded pages, if data in a particular field matches a certain combination of letters and numbers, a javascript alert is displayed after clicking on the submit button. However if the field is correct then the form will submit and execute the next page.
Is there any way that I can check to find out if the dialog box has appeared and if it has go to a page later on in the script?
Thanks in advance

If I understand that right, if that alert pops up, the error has occurred, and the script won't continue because of the navigation failure. When the script fails, no other "next" page could possibly appear, so there is no point to save that information for later. Correct me if I am wrong.

Message: "The database structure has been modified" every time I log to SAP

Hello,
"The database structure has been modified. In order to resume this process, all open windows will be closed". Every time I log to one of my companies in SAP Business One this message appears.
I haven't installed any new addons and made no changes in database structure (and any other user hasn't done any changes), but this message appears always when I log to company for the first time (when I try to log on another user or log to another company there is no message). Can anyone help me with this problem?
Best regards

Hi Ela Świderska,

The Database Structure Has Been Modified

Good Day!
Just want to ask what is the probable reason why upon using SAP, there is a system message " The database structure has been modified. In order to resume the process, all open windows will be closed. Continue?" Even upon user log in , this system message appear affecting other user's data entry. Upon adding of the document (of other users when this system message appear), all the UDFs are missing, causing their data entry to be inaccurate since you cannot update row level once the document has been added.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks
Sandra

Hello ...
This error message appears every time that has altered the structure of the database, either by creating a new field of user or user table, so it is inevitable that appear the same.
Now, it is necessary as a measure, to control who has access to make these changes, and that they are made without users.
I hope it will help
Best regards,

The database structure has been modified - how to check if it happend?

Hello,
I have a question. How to check if the database structure has been modified? I know that there is shown a messagebox after creating table and adding some fields, but sometimes this message appear after some seconds. The problem is that I want to create table and UDO for this table, and until database structure is not modified I got an error message. If I wait and DB strucuture modifies then UDO is creating correctly.
My question is - does anyone know how to check if database structure has been modified?
Regards,
Hmg

Hi Szymon,
I guess you are stuck up in a kinda scenario, where in, you will be populating a form with values, before the structure modifies, if this is going to be your problem, I can help you out with a work around.
In the beginning of the process, before the creation of the UDO or tables, set a boolean value to false, and once all UDO's and Tables are created, only then, should you make it true and only after the boolean becomes true, you should proceed with populating the values from the screen.
I really ament sure what your problem is, but one of my guys faced this problem, I then, thought even you might have a similar problem.

Hyperlink panel disabled - So how do I change the appearance of a hyperlink?

I am at the final stages of layout and the only thing preventing me from publishing electronically is that the hyperlinks have bounding boxes around them. I have previously been able to use the hyperlink options to change the appearance of a hyperlink but my panel is completely greyed out > see below. I can only change the destination and that does not give any link options. The panel doesn't even register any hyperlinks although you can see many in my screen grab alone. I have modified the character style but since these are active links (which should remain active), the style does not change the bounding box. I even tried retyping links and linking them to their URL with InDesign but I cannot control any options after a link has been made. I also cannot afford to do this +100 times. Anyone have any tips? I'm using CS6 on a MacBook Pro. I've already rebooted the computer and InDesign to no avail. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a script I can use?
Thanks to anyone who can help!
