Lets say I have a couple of CSS classes: .tickup { color: green; } .tickdn { color: red; } .tick { color: black; } Then I have JavaScript (which is using Prototype) that needs to dynamically change color of another element. That's easy - $('element').style.color = 'red'. But the thing is that the page is skinned, so my only way is to ...
Adding Sizzle js to my project breaks the project
I'm not entirely sure what's happening here. I have my code that exists like: var mycode = { init:function(){ //my code here } } //sizzle pasted here... (function(){ //sizzle code here })(); Where "sizzle code here" is the copy/paste of Sizzle in its entirety. Sizzle is contained in an anonymous function, so I'm not s...
Large http uploads failing with uploadify/php on Dreamhost

What's wrong with this Javascript Code?
I believe something on this code chunk is not properly coded making it incompatible on XHTML 1.0 Transitional. The code snippet collapses div and then on click they will expand. Can somebody see what could be wrong? <script type="text/javascript"> function toggle(div){ el = document.getElementById(div); if (el.style.display == 'n...

javascript selection/range coordinates
I would like to absolute-position a div on either the initial or terminal corner of a text selection, as the user drags their mouse along. Unfortunately, Range only provides the index position, not the x/y coordinates. I think there might be a way to do this with range.insertNode, but only for one side. (This might also help someone posi...
On-The-Fly Image Generation in PHP
I'm developing a script that will allow people to generate a banner for them to use. It's customizable. During the customization process, I'd like to be able to have the banner reload on the spot.

dom:loaded not firing until the last <img> request is initiated. (prototype js)
Hi all, I'm working on a page with 60+ images and the dom:loaded event isn't firing until the last image request is initiated (not fully loaded, which is expected). On a slower connection (using some throttler to simulate this) it is very noticable. The dom:loaded event fires something that will kick in javascript interaction on the pag...
Using javascript on Facebook
Facebook has a special javascript call for setting Fanpage permissions. Unfortunately, I can't get any javascript to work on my page. Not even a simple alert('bla') in an onclick works.

Using the mouse wheel to scroll a browser window horizontally
I have a very wide website, intentionally designed to have no vertical scrolling but a lot of horizontal. Scrolling horizontally is usually a pain to users so was wondering if there was some way of using the middle mouse or other scrolling habits (eg. page up/down, up/down arrows, middle mouse click/drag) to scroll horizontally instead ...
