JavaScript

var tempDiv = "<div class = "someClass"></div>";
divs.push(tempDiv);

is this code valid in javascript?
i'm getting error in chrome console that says unexpected identifier
the error is on first line.

If that's the precise code you've got, and it hasn't been mangled by the site, then it's not valid Javascript. Nested quotes need to be escaped:

JavaScript

var tempDiv = "<div class=\"someClass\"></div>";

// Or:
var tempDiv = '<div class="someClass"></div>';

You also need to remove the spaces around the = character for the string to be valid HTML.

In a vb.net 2010 web form application, I have the following code:

<%@ Page Title="" Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="default.aspx.vb" Inherits="attendanceletters_default" %>

        function GetStudentLetterTemplate(schoolyear, schoolnum, milestone, studentlink, language, semester) {

            alert('schoolyear: ' + schoolyear + 'schoolnum: ' + schoolnum + 'milestone: ' + milestone + 'studentlink: ' + studentlink + 'language: ' + language + 'semester: ' + semester);
             if (milestone == '999') {
                 alert('You have selected student(s) having more than one CAIP entry for the current school year');
               return;
            }
}

I want to display a javascript alert message in production when an error condition exists. The code listed above works in a development envirnonment, but the code would not deploy to a test app server.

Thus can you show me what I can do to fix the code listed above?

If not, would you show me what I can do in a production environment to have a warning message displayed to a user with the least amount of extra code?
I do not care how the warning message is displayed, I just want a warning message to be displayed.

So, fun story, your JavaScript should be largely unaffected by test/production environments with a couple of important caveats.

You might have a hard-coded route in your JS that does not exist in production. This could be a specific URI (ie "http://localhost:8080/site/asset") or a relative URL that is not appropriate in your release build ( ie "../../assets" to escape bin).
Your web browser whitelists sites for script execution, and your production server is not whitelisted.

It's far more likely that your aspx is not producing the correct response on the server side.

Also, this snippet is hysterical:

HTML

<script src="../scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="../scripts/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><br />
<%If (False) Then%>
    <script src="../scripts/jquery-1.3.2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<% End If%>

Adding New Button using java script

Member 1274349616-Sep-16 1:29

Hi All,

I am very new to java script , actually I have one HTML page and I am using it in SAP that page contains buttons like 'Save' Bold' 'Italic' Etc all word formatting options.

Like in this editor above we have B I U , Small and BIG and ETC..

when I open that code in note page I have observers that below code has written to create a button.

JavaScript

/* START CONFIG */
var nicSaveOptions = {
	buttons : {
		'save' : {name : __('Save this content'), type : 'nicEditorSaveButton'}
	}
};
/* END CONFIG */

var nicEditorSaveButton = nicEditorButton.extend({
	init : function() {
		if(!this.ne.options.onSave) {
			this.margin.setStyle({'display' : 'none'});
		}
	},
	mouseClick : function() {
		var onSave = this.ne.options.onSave;
		var selectedInstance = this.ne.selectedInstance;
		onSave(selectedInstance.getContent(), selectedInstance.elm.id, selectedInstance);
	}
});

nicEditors.registerPlugin(nicPlugin,nicSaveOptions);

with the above code Save button is displaying in the tool bar.
Now I want to add another button in the tool bar with different logo EX : To send email

Can you please help me how to add new button and it's event for that button.( the above button having even I copied the same code and paste I got that save option two times )

It looks like you're using a script control renderer called NicEdit[^], so normal JavaScript conventions will only help so much. There's an example that was first thing that came up on Google for me: javascript - Nicedit.js - cannot add custom button - Stack Overflow[^]

I should also note that as per the site, it is no longer under development.

If you're interested in learning JS this is probably not the bast project for you, as you'll be learning the conventions of a dead script module rather than actual JavaScript. I would suggest using one of the many JS tutorials that you can find by googling "javascript tutorial"

I have created HTML tables as below by hard coded the values:
Name weekhandledticket monthlyhandledticket dailyhandledticket credits
xyz 1 2 1 1

My requirement is I want to achieve this dashboard directly on browser without hard coding the values.it should directly taken from external file like javascript .is it possible to attain this requirement using JavaScript itself? Please give me some idea to drive this requirement?

Erm, yes, that's entirely possible and even normal.

It sounds like you need to learn some JS and I would suggest by starting with jQuery. Have a look at jQuery Learning Center[^] to get started.

You can learn how to use javaScript (and the DOM access it gives you) here: JavaScript Tutorial[^]

But the best way to generate pages is server-side, for which PHP is a great language: PHP 5 Tutorial[^]

You can make changes to an existing page with either javaScript (via DOM) or php (via AJAX), depending upon where the 'new' data is stored.

How can I swap only body element between HTML pages?

I have two separate HTML files (index.html and home.html) and a javascript (bodyswapscript.js) file. I'm trying to figure out how to swap in (only the body) of home.html into the body of the index.html by using java script. Basically swapping 'body' elements between HTML files.

I have posted my html code and java script below. The html is quick and dirty, so I'm only interested in swapping out the body information of index.html with home.html. I also would like to keep the unordered/list items as my header and be able to use the browser back button to go back to previous pages.

1.) index.html

Have a look at the documentation[^], particularly the section titled Loading Page Fragments[^]:

Loading Page Fragments[^]:

If one or more space characters are included in the string, the portion of the string following the first space is assumed to be a jQuery selector that determines the content to be loaded.

JavaScript

$(document).ready(function(){
    $( 'li>a[id$="Container"]' ).click(function(event) 
    {
        event.preventDefault();
        var href = $(this).attr('href');
        alert("Loading " + href);
        $('#swapcontent').load(href + ' #swapcontent');
        return false;
    });
});

I would generally advise against reloading the entire body content with an HTML fragment. It's generally considered bad practice as you'll generally have common elements between pages, regardless of the view.

It would be closer to industry standard if you defined a view DIV within the body element.

23-Aug-16 3:29

So, I've been working on this code for the past day and it's drving me nuts. The problem is I'm trying to reverse the input of a string so when a user enters FIRSTNAME LASTNAME, the document it is exported to will display LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME.

I feel like I'm very close with the code I have but I need some understanding as well.

Here is my code:

%{var date = '${Case Name}'.split(' '); var date = date[0]; var dateParts = date.split(' '); dateParts[1] + ',' + dateParts[0]}

This code that I currently have returns undefined,FIRSTNAME.

Anyone have any ideas or guidance on how to pull the LASTNAME and add a space after the comma?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Re: Javascript reverse help

Richard Deeming23-Aug-16 4:35

Richard Deeming

23-Aug-16 4:35

Try walking through your code in your head:

Take the name, 'FIRST LAST', and split it on every space ⇒ ['FIRST', 'LAST']
Take the first element from the result, and store it ⇒ 'FIRST';
Split the stored element on every space (NB: There aren't any!) ⇒ ['FIRST']
Combine the second element of the one-element array with the first element ⇒ 'undefined,FIRST'

Now it should be obvious that you need to remove steps 2 and 3:

JavaScript

%{var parts = '${Case Name}'.split(' '); parts[1] + ', ' + parts[0]}

However, you'll still get undefined if the entered name doesn't contain a space. If that could be the case, then you'll need the ternary operator:

JavaScript

%{var parts = '${Case Name}'.split(' '); parts.length == 2 ? parts[1] + ', ' + parts[0] : parts[0]}

Adding a space after the comma is as simple as ... adding a space after the comma!

angular http post doesnt work on IIS

Member 1103130422-Aug-16 19:34

22-Aug-16 19:34

Hy guys. I am creating WebAPI MVC website. I use angular http post to get some data from DB and it works all the time but when I publish my web to IIS http post stops working. I tried to get some error info so this is what was written in htmled form:

Notification MapRequestHandler
Handler StaticFile
Error Code 0x80070002
Requested URL http://localhost:80/controller/function/
Physical Path C:\inetpub\wwwroot\controller\function\
Logon Method Anonymous
Logon User Anonymous

and says that "The directory or file specified does not exist on the Web server." I dont know if am I wright but seems like IIS thinks that url I use in post method is real path, not api. How to make it think it is api?
By the way to be sure angular works I tried the simple model bind. So there was no error.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
