you are right. Using the onfocusout did not work as expected. It fired, all right, but it also fired from movement within the span child elements. I am at my wits end. Can anyone think of a way to capture this event and check to see if the movement is from within the span children or not?
The answer to my question is to use onfocusout event (or ondeactivate). This works in ie. There is no need to change the design of the control (especially considering all asp web custom controls are designed in this way). Thank you for the effort.
msdn documentation specifies that span element can implement onblur - and, in fact, firefox implements it successfully as I noted in my post. The reason I require the onblur event in the span element is because of the nature of the asp custom control I am using (too long and boring to go into.)...
Here is sample code just to make the point. The onblur event doesn't fire in ie 6, but does fire in firefox. I require the onblur event in the span element as I have a web custom control. Please advise on how to capture onblur for span. I need the onblur for mouse activity as well as for tab...
Definitely a good idea, Jeff, however, I am looking for a quick and dirty solution to implement, without having (at the present time) to rework the whole search process. I am thinking in terms of some javascript code which would, while the page loads, run some dummy method to keep the browser...
Our site hosts a search engine which loads a very large html file containing all the info to search. The size of this page is causing the client's browser to time out. I need a quick HTML/Javascript solution (not server-side) which will perhaps load an intermediary Please Wait page and keep the...
I have implemented your solution in the following way : The button on the HTML Help page opens up an HTA file in a popup window, which then immediately opens up Outlook. I need to use a separate HTA file ( as opposed to opening Outlook directly from the button ) because the Help page will not...
Awesome response from niteowl. In plain old IE it works fine - I coded without the HTA part. I just had to approve all the warnings that came my way. I tried the code out on siberlogic and it ran an error - automation server can't create object . (Siberlogic is a product which uses HTML frames...
My employer wants to avoid server-related issues. Our support for this widget does not have to be robust to the max. We can assume that IE is present, as well as Outlook. If something goes wrong, we can simply start the email process without an attachment. In any event, the email editor must be...
Thank you for the great responses. As I am a .net developer, I know little of the intricacies of HTML development. However, I was called upon to develop this email widget. I am dealing with a client-side HTML page ( Siberlogic knowledgebase to be precise ) where there is no connection to a...
I need JScript to start up the client email editor and send a mail to the support team which includes a local HTML page either as mail content or attachment, all done by JScript. I use "mailto", however I cannot figure out how to send attachment like this. Please advise.
