Is there a simple and reliable way to determine the URL of the currently-executing JavaScript file (inside a web page)?

Anyone have other idea...

The init() is able to use the parameter passed to it in this example: <body onload="init(this);"> testdOnChange() in this example uses a more complicated technique with XSLT generate-id(): <testd:test testd_id="TESTD_ID_id0x03cc1988" testd_on_load="testdOnChange(testdGetElementById('TESTD_ID_id0x03cc1988'));" /> Is t...
I want to convert a DOMNode object from a call to getElementsByTagName to a DOMElement in order to access methods like getElementsByTagName on the child element. In any other language, I would cast and it would be easy, but after some quick looking, PHP does not have object casting. So what I need to know is how to get a DOMElement objec...

When an html page is loaded, different input elements can be initialed as they are declared in the HTML. If the user changes some of the input values and then executes a reset() on the form, then the form is reset to it's initial loaded state.

What i want to do is when the user click on an element it will make some functions i wrote, and in same time i don't want this element to do any other pre attached events. Means: If the user inspected anchor element, and t...
I'm attempting to capture mouse events on an element with another absolutely-positioned element on top of it. Right now, events on the absolutely-positioned element hit it and bubble up to its parent, but I want it to be "transparent" to these mouse events and forward them on to whatever is behind it. How should I implement this? Click ...
