I've hit a wall trying to use javascript to write a table with some image tags. I'm looping through an array of image names, then setting their src attribute. The function is creating the tags, but all that displays is the 'missing image' thumbnail. The function is fired via a button. Below is my code.

Thanks!

Hi you can either do it the standard way as it is shown in this article
http://reference.sitepoint.com/javascript/Element/setAttribute[^]
Or I suggest you rather use the jquery api. it's alot easier for manipulating tags etc; It'll make your life far easier.
http://api.jquery.com/attr/[^]
Here's an excellent beginner's guide.

Hope this all helps.

Dean, Thanks for the reply. I've been working with the jquery api just a bit today, and I really like it. Thanks for the reference!

I just checked about setAttribute. It seems that only Firefox implemented it properly.

JQuery is a very good choice. for your information you can also use

imgobject.src='my/image/source.jpg'; //it will do fine Smile | :)

Images Won't display in IE 7

(1) Please don't use names of collections for private vars

so var images = new Array();
better var arArrayOfImagesObjects=new Array();

images is al pre-dfined collection: document.images

see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537461.aspx

(2) To set scr:

valueof .src is not same like pure string

preload image

var imgObjekt1=new Image(); // height and width if you want
imgObjekt1.src='whatYouWant.jpg'; // maybe with path

vImg = document.createElement("IMG"); // check pionter !
if(vImg!=null)
{
// append into object (into child of body) // append into collection images automatically
// check pointer of appended object, use e.g. var imgAppendedImgObject

if(imgAppendedImgObject!=null)
{imgAppendedImgObject.src=imgObjekt1.src; // will be (now) rendered in body
// don't use setAttribute("src", "images/" + image);
}
}

(3) FIRST optimize your code during edit and THEN check errors at run time.

to createElement and appendChild

check always pointers != null

if you use a collection like images check too

declare vars inside of function --> local vars

declare vars inside of for{} --> declare 1 time outside of for and use inside

declare constants like "image1.jpg" outside of function --> use global code e.g. at begin of js-file (easy find and edit in js-file).

Would someone please tell me why this js won't display images in IE 7, but works perfectly in Firefox? I'm using Windows XP, and I've double-checked all my settings in IE 7. Thanks!

Try moving the line

JavaScript

window.onload = fnWrite;

after the fnWrite() function block.

Thanks for the reply, however that did not fix this problem. The IE browser does display the little thumbnail box, which tells me the image tag is there, but this line of code
vImg.src = images[i];
for some reason is not setting the source for the image. I've even tried hard coding in the source with no luck.

Sorry, it was a bit of a stab in the dark, but I know that there are some strange inconsistencies between IE and the other browsers.

Thanks for the reply. Well, I removed the javascript from the HTML page and put it in a js file, and now it works. Go figure... Thanks a lot, Microsoft. Frown | :(

I've just tried your code with MS-IE7 on WXP and it works for me! I have a similar problem with code generated on the fly and displayed using IE.navigate using automation - the images come up with the red [x] box or the 4 symbol box but if I show the source, save it, run the saved version the images come up correctly. Are you using IE automation or simple file opening?

A massive problem of Microsoft

If you want reders animated gifs then that will by chrashed by Internet Explorer
preload img with '?' after suffix (:gif?) have no result: animated gif even not rendered.

e.g.

// X00 is an existing image object
// X01 is an existing preloaded image object with filled .src of an animated gif

X00.src=X01.src+'?'; // only if IE exists
X00.src=X01.src; // for opera etc.

preload image

var imgObjekt1=new Image(); // height and width if you want
imgObjekt1.src='animated.gif'; // maybe with path, but not with '?'

vImg = document.createElement("IMG"); // check pionter !
if(vImg!=null)
{
// append into object (into child of body) // append into collection images automatically
// check pointer of appended object, use e.g. var imgAppendedImgObject

if(imgAppendedImgObject!=null)
{imgAppendedImgObject.src=imgObjekt1.src+'?'; // will be (now) rendered in body in IE
}
}

Hi,

i am not able set the args.isValid as false for JS function...which is not having custom validator..

find the code below:

XML

<asp:LinkButton runat="server"  ID="btnApply" TabIndex="1"  CssClass=" primary"  OnClientClick = "return ApplyClick(this);" >

JS Code:

function Applyclick(args) {


if (errMsg != null) {
                       args.IsValid = false;

                      }

return false;
}

thanks in advance

update several DIV using javascript with mysql data

1-Feb-12 23:10

In that case Check your Firefox or Chrome error message. I cant recall any html object property IsValid. I think you need to say more clearly what you need
