Anyone know if an onclick event handler can cancel an onmouseover event handler and bring the user to the href? < a href="http://tek-tips.com" onmouseover="dosomething" onclick="cancel dosomething and bring the user to tek-tips">link</a> What I want is an informational ajax window to...

I have a script that works and is writing the XML file as expected. Now I would like to add an enhancement that would eliminate duplicate <location> elements in the XML file. For example if I have two items in Phoeninx, AZ in the flat file, I would write only one <locaction> element, I need to...

I am wondering if perl can be used to write an xml file from a pipe-delimited file. I want to take something in a file that might look like: ID|Name|City|State|Country And try to write XML that might look like: <item-list> <item> <location city="City" state="State" country="Country"/>...

Interesting. That is exactly what I was looking for and it worked great. Thanks for your help.

I have a multi-line pipe delimited file that I want to use to write an XML document. I was hoping to use a shell script to do this. Does anyone have any examples or advice they are willing to share. Here is what the pipe delimited file would look like: Name1|PHX|AZ| . . . Name5|MSP|MN Here is...

I am not using any kind of Javascript framework.

I do not have a URL in production that you can look at yet. I have changed the code a little to address some other issues and it now reads: function textElement() { var inputElement = document.createElement("input"); inputElement.setAttribute("name","password")...

Thanks for the tip! This still works in all cases - but it still shuts down the Safari browser :(

I switched it to this and I am getting the same results. Any other ideas? // removeElement(document.getElementById("password")); function removeElement(obj) { obj.parentNode.removeChild(obj) }

Please see the javascript below. In Safari if I tab into the field that calls this function the browser shuts down. If I click in the field everything works but the focus is not set. Any ideas how I may fix this? Or as a worst case at lease put in a fix to prevent the (Safari) browser from...

Below works -- thanks for the help! if (window.attachEvent) { document.getElementById("password").attachEvent("onfocus",passwordElement); } else if (window.addEventListener) { document.getElementById("password").addEventListener("focus",passwordElement,true); }

I call the following function and it appears to remove it from the DOM in Safari. The field it is removing is a password field that has a value of "Password". I add a new node to the DOM that has no value, but when I input a value Safari sends in the the first value "Password" and the value I...

Below is what I now have after reading the replies to this post and looking at other sources. if (document.getElementById("password").attachEvent) { document.getElementById("password").attachEvent("onFocus",passwordElement); alert ("foo - ie - password"); } else if...

When I am using javascript to add a node to the DOM, I am going to need to set the onFocus attribute that will call another javascript function. As you can see below most of the attributes are set using setAttribute, but there are a couple where I needed to use getElementById to work in IE. As...

This works for the most part, but I have two more questions. [1] If I am trying to submit a form when I am not within the form, but it is on the page, how would I do that? [2] Why would you use return false in place on event.cancelBubble=true? thanks!
