Hi
I'm using the 'file'' input control tag (HTML) – this represents the
"Browse..." HTML control on internet browsers.
I'm not using this control for its conventional use – to upload a file to a
server, rather – I use it to get the path of a file on a network share – in
order to save typing time for the user.
For example on Windows or Linux when browsing to a network server to get a
file – the result is: \\SomePC\SomeShare\SomeFile.ext
On Mac – Leopard/Tiger – we will see something like:
/Volumes/SomeShare/SomeFile.ext
Our problem is that we need the file server name – which the Mac seem to
automount under the /Volumes directory, I would appreciate your
comments/idea on how to get the full path instead of the mounted path
returned to the server by the browser.

Short answer: you can't.
Long answer: you get what the browser gives you and have to accept this due to the non-standard use of the file element.

Basically, with the use of asp.net or javascript, wats the coding for sending a form to an email address.
|
|
|
|

You have to use a server-side language such as PHP or ASP to send e-mails.

I remember that you posted the same question yesterday too.
As you said, you are using html and css to build your site, but maite there is no way you can send an email using these(as these are the client side language/scripts which are used to render you page content to the browser and nothing else).
For an operation like Sending an Email, you need to do it at the sever side using languages like ASP, ASP.Net'and many more.
Hope this helps.

Hi all, this is my first message here so i hope i can rely on some of you people to help...
My problem is that i'm working on a website that has drop down menus written in javascript. Now these menus work properly on IE and Netscape, but when i try to view the site on firefox, the table cell that holds the "hidden" menu is at a greater height (the height of the cell + the height of the drop down menu). And the menu appears within the that cell when hovered over and disapears when you leave it. But the menu is never hidden and the table cell remains the same height. Its not acting like a proper drop down menu, but instead its like it shows the links when hovered over. Here is the html code and the Javascript code that i'm using...
html:
(For the row that has the menu only)
<tr><td width="145px"></td><td width="0px" class="test" height="0" id=0 onmouseout=btnTimer() onmouseover=showLayer("Menu0",'0')>
<a class="menu_special" href="products.html">
drop_down
<img src="images/arrowdown.gif" border="0" width="10" height="10" alt="">
<div id=Menu0 style="visibility:hidden;">
<table bgcolor=#ffffff cellpadding=5 style="border-collapse: collapse;">
<tr height=0 onmouseout=menuOut(this,'#ffffff') onmouseover=menuOver(this,'#ffffff')>
<td align=left width="75px"><a class="menu_special" href="#1">test1</a></td></tr>
<tr height=0 onmouseout=menuOut(this,'#ffffff') onmouseover=menuOver(this,'#ffffff')>
<td align=left width="75px"><a class="menu_special" href="#3">test2</a></td></tr>
<tr height=0 onmouseout=menuOut(this,'#ffffff') onmouseover=menuOver(this,'#ffffff')>
<td align=left width="75px"><a class="menu_special" href="#3">test3</a></td></tr>
<table>
<div>
<a></td></tr>
Javascript code:
window.onerror = null;
var bName = navigator.appName;
var bVer = parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
var IE4 = (bName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && bVer >= 4);
var menuActive = 0;
var menuOn = 0;
var onLayer;
var timeOn = null;
function showLayer(layerName,aa){
var x =document.getElementById(aa);
var tt =findPosX(x);
var ww =findPosY(x)+20;
if (timeOn != null) {
clearTimeout(timeOn);
hideLayer(onLayer);
}
if (IE4) {
var layers = eval('document.all["'+layerName+'"].style');
layers.left = tt;
eval('document.all["'+layerName+'"].style.visibility="visible"');
}
else {
if(document.getElementById){
var elementRef = document.getElementById(layerName);
if((elementRef.style)&& (elementRef.style.visibility!=null)){
elementRef.style.visibility = 'visible';
elementRef.style.left = tt;
elementRef.style.top = ww;
}
}
}
onLayer = layerName
}
function hideLayer(layerName){
if (menuActive == 0)
{
if (IE4){
eval('document.all["'+layerName+'"].style.visibility="hidden"');
}
else{
if(document.getElementById){
var elementRef = document.getElementById(layerName);
if((elementRef.style)&& (elementRef.style.visibility!=null)){
elementRef.style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
}
}
}
}
function btnTimer() {
timeOn = setTimeout("btnOut()",50)
}
function btnOut(layerName){
if (menuActive == 0){
hideLayer(onLayer)
}
}
var item;
function menuOver(itemName,ocolor){
item=itemName;
itemName.style.backgroundColor = ocolor; //background color change on mouse over
clearTimeout(timeOn);
menuActive = 1
}
function menuOut(itemName,ocolor){
if(item)
itemName.style.backgroundColor = ocolor;
menuActive = 0
timeOn = setTimeout("hideLayer(onLayer)", 50)
}
function findPosX(obj)
{
var curleft = 0;
if (obj.offsetParent)
{
while (obj.offsetParent)
{
curleft += obj.offsetLeft
obj = obj.offsetParent;
}
}
else if (obj.x)
curleft += obj.x;
return curleft;
}
function findPosY(obj)
{
var curtop = 0;
if (obj.offsetParent)
{
while (obj.offsetParent)
{
curtop += obj.offsetTop
obj = obj.offsetParent;
}
}
else if (obj.y)
curtop += obj.y;
return curtop;
}
Any Help Would be appreciated
Thanks

As shown by the line: var IE4 = (bName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && bVer >= 4);
Wow, the days when IE was on OS X  I wonder why they got rid of it

Thanks for the advice, i scrapped the old code and found a better drop down menu code that works perfectly for both IE and firefox
|
|

|

You're welcome - hope you didn't take my reply as rude; i've found that older (targeting v4-era browsers) DHTML code generally isn't worth updating; too much has changed, too much has been learned. Glad you found something!

I am using HttpWebRequest object for communicating with a Sun Java System Web Server. The behaviour of the Server is very random. For the same requests, sometimes I get the response and sometimes I get Internal Server Error 500.
This is a third party server which reportedly works fine with other client applications so it seems there is a problem with my code. The code is simply using HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse objects to massage requests and responses.
I am re-initializing the HttpWebRequest object for each new request, the reason being the fact that I cannot reassign request.ContentLength to a value once the request has begun.
Any clues?

Can you show us some of your code?

That's because you're doing something wrong
|
|
|
|

1) describe what you're doing in sufficient (but not excessive) detail for the average reader to understand and reproduce.
2) post in the correct forum[^].
Success!

Ok, I am trying to do this in javascript. Let me try to tell you what I want to do. I have a nav with 5 buttons(images). I want to be able to hover over a nav button, say nav1, have that change to newNav1 (a color version of the same image) while having another image underneath, img3(which right now is plain), change to img4(becomes a heading), then when you click on img4, you get img5(a description). Then when you move your mouse away from img5, you go back to the beginning. The code that I have included works except it doesn't go back to the beginning when you move your mouse away from img5. It will go back as long as you only hover over one button but if you hover over say nav1 and then move over to nav2, instead of getting the orginal image, you'll get the images that resulted from hovering over nav1.
thanks
function addRollover(img, rolloverURL, overHeading, overContent)
{
var id = img;
var contentBase = document.content.src;
img = document.images[id];
var baseUrl = img.src;
(new Image()).src = rolloverURL;
(new Image()).src = overHeading;
(new Image()).src = overContent;
img.src = rolloverURL;
document.content.src = overHeading;
document.content.onclick = function () { document.content.src = overContent;}
img.onmouseout = function() { img.src = baseUrl; }
document.content.onmouseout = function () { document.content.src = contentBase;}
}

Can any body give me any small sample application or any link of any type of ASP.Net, in which create, update delete operations?

plenty examples at QuickStart ^. There are Insert, Delete and Update examples. You can choose your language preference (C#/VB.NET) at the top right hand side.

I have a website that I just finish creating to sell our services and I'm creating the form at the moment. I actually finished the form but I don't know how to have it send the information to my email. A lot of the javascript I found opens up the outlook to send the email, but this may pose a problem to the people who don't use outlook  . So the question is, how do I go about sending this form to my email.

Well, a javascript only wont help in sending an email.
It has to be done at the server side.
