Hey, I'm near ending the repetitive alarms at my little learning project. It's still full of bugs, but as it is a weekend project I'm correcting them slowly. My problem is inconsistency of layout across browsers. At the moment, I'm trying to improve the "My Alarms" box after login (Just don't try to hack my website, it's still very u...
I implemented the YUI rich text editor and I would like to get rid of the <html>, <body> and DOCTYPE tags as soon as I save the content from the editor. I know I could do this afterwards by parsing the HTML, but there must be a better solution. Right now this is saved when I edit a text in the YUI editor: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C/...
Hi! I have a firm grasp on XHTML & CSS, but PHP & Javascript look like magic to me. I'm building a discussion site using the PHP-based Textpattern CMS. When users are logged in, they can use a public-side form to add a new discussion topic. There are a lot of input fields, grouped by the HTML fieldset element within a single form elemen...
I wrote some Javascript to allow editing a list of items within an HTML form, including adding and removing items. Got it working in Firefox. When trying it in Internet Explorer, I found that any added items were not being submitted with the form. Long story short... lots of simplification, debugging, figured out what line is triggering...
The basic scenario: I've got a series of elements on an HTML page, generated dynamically. (Currently, they're all divs, but they don't need to be.) What I want is a javascript function that will loop though all of those divs (or whatever) looking for the presence of a specific value. What's the best, most cross-browser way to do this?...
I'm using the Textpattern CMS to build a discussion site-- I have a firm grasp of XHTML and CSS, as well as Textpattern's template language, but PHP and Javascript are a bit beyond my cunning. On the input form to begin a new topic, users need to select a category from a list of over 5,000 options. Using the HTML select-type input eleme...

How do you call a Javascript function from an ASPX control event? Specifically, I want to call the function from the SelectedIndexChanged event of a DropDownList. ...
Every 3 seconds I make an AJAX POST request to get the status of a process. This works great. When the process reaches 100% a call back function executes(indicated below) to add new elements to the page and then it cancels the setTimeout method that use to continuously get the progress every 3 seconds. However, I have been told by my u...
We have a sharepoint Aspx form that is formatted like an excel spreadsheet. On each row of the form are links that when clicked, launch a script to show new links, allowing the user to add, view, or hide comments. This will appear for each line item clicked on.

UPDATE: I noticed a weird little thing here. If you use a function to b...
