I'm trying to get an element to animate to its "natural" height - i.e. the height it would be if it had height: auto;. I've come up with this: var currentHeight = $this.height(); $this.css('height', 'auto'); var height = $this.height(); $this.css('height', currentHeight + 'px'); $this.animate({'height': height}); Is there a better w...
I have found several other questions here on S.O. (and the web in general) that ask roughly this same question, but the answers always seem to suggest other ways of structuring code that avoid the need for addressing this underlying issue. For example, many people suggest (and a good suggestion, I agree) to put your code in the jquery l...
If I have some HTML that looks like this: <div id="text"> This is some text that is being written <span class="highlight">with a highlighted section</span> and some text following it. </div> And I want to remove the "span" leaving the text node within, how would I go about doing that? I tried using jQuery to do the follow...
I have need for a "system" function call, the same as those in Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby, &c. It will be a component of a JavaScript standard library called Narwhal, when it's run on the Rhino JavaScript engine, which is in turn run on Java. The trouble is that Java's standard library appears to have abstracted away the ability to spawn ...

Why is it that a form with a single input field will reload the form when the user enters a value and presses the Enter key, and it does not if there are 2 or more fields in the form. I wrote a simple page to test this oddity. If you enter a value in the second form and press Enter, you'll see it reloads the page passing the entered val...
I am attempting to collapse a div on request, but my setTimeout function will does not successfully call its callback function. Here is the code below: function newsFeed() { this.delete = function(listingID) { var listing = document.getElementById(listingID); var currHeight = listing.offsetHeight; var confirmDelet...
Hey SO, I get the feeling that this is impossible, but is there a way to change what the url of my page will be if someone bookmarks it. I ask because I'm running something in an Iframe, which isn't reflected in my URI. I was thinking maybe I could keep track of where the Iframe is in javascript, and then if they try to bookmark the p...
I am attempting to use the hoverIntent plugin to delay some animation effects on progress bars. However, for some reason hoverIntent doesn't seem to be functioning at all. I have the following in my page header (all paths have been verified): <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery....
I have a form with many fields and 2 submit buttons. I want to run a different check depending on which submit button i click on. I tried writing the code below but it is wrong (i dont know JS) and nothing happens (bad syntax?). How do i figure out which of the two buttons was clicked? document.getElementById('sub1').onclick = checkForm...
If I navigate away from a page in the middle of an $.ajax() request it fires the error callback. I've tested in Safari and FF with both GET and POST requests. It has been suggested that one could abort all AJAX requests on page unload but the error handler is actually called first so it doesn't seem possible nor practical. This is pro...

Hi, I'm loading pages asynchronously with the jQuery load function, like this: tree.click(function() { if ($(this).hasClass("file")) { tree.removeClass("selected"); $(this).addClass("selected"); content.load("content/"+this.id+".html"); cont...
Is there any way you can find the ip of the server that the browser is connected to? For e.g. if the browser is accessing http://www.google.com, can we tell in any way what ip it is connected to? This is very useful in cases where DNS round robin is implemented. So say, the first request to a.com results in 1.1.1.1 & subsequent request r...

I was reading this book - Professional Javascript for Web Developers where the author mentions string concatenation is an expensive operation compared to using an array to store strings and then using the join method to create the final string. Curious, I did a couple test here to see how much time it would save and this is what I got - ...
