I have found a few techniques used for vertically aligning a DIV on the page, most of them outlined here: http://blog.themeforest.net/tutorials/vertical-centering-with-css/ But, the project I'm working on now heavily uses Javascript on a DIV aligned in the vertical center of a page. Does anyone know a method (preferably not Javascript ...
I recently discovered the client-side methods of some of the controls in the Microsoft ajax control toolkit. For instance, with the TabContainer, I can do something like this: $find('tabsEditJob').get_tabs()[1].set_enabled(true); without having to resort to server side code. Is there a way to do this in your own custom user controls...
I might be using the wrong patterns here, but if I am, I hope someone can correct me! I have an object which represents a user's workspace and, in response to a server action, it clones a div, changes some of its properties, positions it on the workspace, makes it draggable and adds an onComplete action. This action is intended to call ...
I am doing device monitoring on a networked system. I need to know how to make Javascript calls on that device via its IP address to get certain status information (this device's status is only available through Javascript APIs, not SNMP, etc). I am working in Java. ADDED: The specific device is an Amino set-top-box. It has what it call...
A Google Closure library team member asserts that waiting for DOMContentReady event is a bad practice. The short story is that we don't want to wait for DOMContentReady (or worse the load event) since it leads to bad user experience. The UI is not responsive until all the DOM has been loaded from the network. So the prefe...
I'm looking for a javascript world map, much like Google Maps, that can be embedded into a webpage, and extended so I can plot my own points on it. The major catch is that the map needs to be completely usable without an internet connection (i.e., local intranet). It doesn't need to have the same level of detail as Google Maps, but shoul...
I am writing an extension for Firefox, and I need to find out the window's HWND. I can't enumerate running processes or anything like that, as it needs to be able to handle multiple instances and tell one from the other. Is there a way of doing this via a javascript extension in Firefox? ...
I have a tooltip that I want to disable. It is from this site and is basically set and called as follows: this.tooltip = function(){....} $(document).ready(function(){ tooltip(); }); I don't want to unbind the hover or mouseover events since they are also tied to other effects. I have tried to disable without success as follows (at t...

I've been tinkering with XML on the web and can use javascript if I add HTML's script element but was interested in knowing if javascript can be started up for scripting the DOM without using anything from HTML at all? ...
I have a javascript form with checkboxes on it. When I click a checkbox and then click "print this page" Everything prints but the checkmark in the checkbox that I selected. Can you help me fix this? thanks ...
When requesting (ht|x)ml with ajax you can only send requests to the same domain. But if you request JSON you can send it to any domain. Why? I'm told it's for security but why would a website do something malicious via ajax rather than just directly if that makes sense. ...
I have a jQuery ajax function. the callback function consists of two functions: 1) Take the ajax result (which is an html form) and insert it as an html span's inner html. 2) Submit this form How can I ensure that the form is loaded before JavaScript tries to submit it? Code: $("select").live("change", function(){ FormUpdate(); }...

Hello JavaScript guru's. I have a simple JS question on how to replace all IMG src path's on a page.

Thanks in adv...
I'm trying to use Javascript to parse text that has been entered in a text box - which would combine a variety of user-generated variables to create random activities. This might make more sense looking at the example. Some example input might be: Activity @Home @Out @Home Read @book for @time Clean up @room for @time @Out Eat at at...
