I'd like to intercept the onclick event of a button (not submit) before the page posts back from the onclick. I'm having some trouble: $(document).ready() { function() { function validate() { ... } var oldOnClick = $("input[value=OK]").attr("onclick"); $("input[value=OK]").attr("onclick", "if(!validate()) { re...

I'm sure this question's come up before, but I can't find any reference to it. As an exercise, I've decided to look into Javascript for game programming. While it's far from being the best language for that, I do like the idea that it's cross platform and it's always available as a web page. So I thought I'd see what I could do with it....
My site frames content like DiggBar and the Facebook share bar. If a user wants to break out of the framed content, and visit the underlying site directly, we cannot guarantee the current page will be displayed, since there is no way for JS or HTML to query the current URL of an iFrame (for security reasons). All we can do is show the ...

We have, like everyone else, forms all over our web app. So far we've been using the following (or some variation) in most every form element: class="formThingy" onFocus="document.theForm.theField.className='formThingySelected';" onBlur="document.theForm.theField.className='formThingy';" It's a pain. Is there an easy way to do g...
I've done some work with Scriptaculous, and now I'm dipping my feet in to JQuery to see which of the two frameworks I like working with the most. I am running in to some behavior that strikes me as odd... $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "addcart.php", data: "userID="+ userID + "&cardID=" + cardID + "&cardQTY=" + cardQTY + "&set=m...
I'm trying to pull the contents of Div from another page of the site I'm working on and update the Div on the current page. I want to do this so I don't need a page reload. The Ajax call I'm making works fine in Firefox, it updates the Div with the content from the other page of the site. The problem is it breaks in IE, when I try to get...
In his sitepoint article about javascript inheritance, Harry Fuecks explains a way of implementing inheritance as follows: function copyPrototype(descendant, parent) { var sConstructor = parent.toString(); var aMatch = sConstructor.match( /\s*function (.*)\(/ ); if ( aMatch != null ) { descendant.prototype[aMatch[1]] = p...

The thing is, I have been asked to look into making the site UTC and was wondering how I could go about displaying a clock or determing which timezone the site in running in and so perhaps display a clock on the home...
I'm wondering which is better for performance... I have a "web app" sort of thing. It has a lot of javascript. When a button is clicked, a hidden div becomes visible. This new div has 5 buttons. Which is better for performance: 1.) put the button click events in the html tag of each button like onClick="alert('hey');" 2.) Attach events ...
I was playing around with Javascript creating a simple countdown clock when I came across this strange behavior: var a = new Date(), now = a.getTime(), then = Date.UTC(2009,10,31), diff = then -now , daysleft = parseInt(diff/(24*60*60*1000)); console.log(daysleft ); The daysleft is off by 30 days. What is wrong with this code? Edit...
