    Create a window, then read its contents?

    another correction, I meant "onLoad=opener.childLoadedEventHandler" But I'm abandoning this line of attack (against the AJAX cross-domain barrier) because it's been pointed out that many people disable popups entirely. Maybe I'll try a tiny, hidden iframe...

    Create a window, then read its contents?

    correction, I meant the sample attribute string to say "onLoad=parent.childLoadedEventHandler"

    Create a window, then read its contents?

    The webpage for the new window is from another server, not under my control. So I can't modify it. I've tried AJAX but run into the cross-domain permission problem, so I'm trying to find a way around it. When opening the child window from the parent, can I specify something in its attributes...

    Create a window, then read its contents?

    After creating another window from JS, can I capture its events? Can I read its document?

    "AJAX" for HTML, not XML

    I did experiment a bit with creating a new document from the HTML text returned by the query: ( obj = document.open(...), obj.write(the http response text) and then use the DOM to find things in it, but it kept bogging down on the totally non-validating HTML that they are feeding me. Eventually...

    "AJAX" for HTML, not XML

    Well, isn't that a shame. I would have thought that I could create a new object of the same type as the current "document" (what type is that, anyway?) so that I could go at it the same way I can work on the current document. In other words, parse the DOM of a different page than the one I'm...

    Is it possible to get only one image as background?

    Can't you specify the background repeating pattern in CSS, such as "background-repeat: no-repeat" (or repeat-x, or repeat-y) ? I haven't tried it on a whole page, but I seem to remember seeing it on a table background, and if you wrap the whole page in a table with 100% width/height, mightn't...

    "AJAX" for HTML, not XML

    Right, DOM parse of HTML. Just an example would probably help.

    "AJAX" for HTML, not XML

    I've read through the forum threads about AJAX, explored Captain-AT's how-to's, and played with various examples from this site and others, but I'm unable to make a certain step in my application. A third party at my domain provides a database lookup form webpage (i.e., the URL has a single ...

    Embed graphic file directly in a script ?

    So, I tried BMP and JPG and PNG formats, and Netscape 7.2 recognizes both, but IE 6 does not. Neither one recognized TIF. IE still only recognizes XBM, that crazily inefficient C-code, monochrome format. I even tried a simple XPM file, supposedly derived from XBM but for color images, but...

    Embed graphic file directly in a script ?

    Thanks Dan, that thread is an interesting discussion. [I also found a related pixel-drawing discussion from Edward (How do I display graphics using JavaScript? faq216-3516, Apr 03) which has other interesting suggestions on drawing directly to a graphics image.] I too am interested in an...

    Embed graphic file directly in a script ?

    Is there a way in Javascript (or HTML) to embed graphic file data (a BLOB) directly into the code, rather than referencing an external file? I know this goes against the grain of the modularity of normal HTML/JS programming, but I'm still interested... This would be akin to embedding blobs in...

    Including html files

    basic include: your server must allow SSI (server-side includes) which not all of them do. <!-- #include virtual=&quot;filename.html&quot; --> that's it. Good for headers and footers and other common stuff!

    Is there something like C-language "#include" for HTML?

    Thanks for the help. The SSI works great, and it's just what the doctor ordered. Of course it all depends on the server's capabilities. In my case, my server is GeoCities and they allow SSI on standard .htm or .html files, since they use it themselves for their add-ons to your page. (I.E...

    Is there something like C-language "#include" for HTML?

    I have a block of HTML that has to occur in many different pages, but the block will change every now and then, and I hate having to change it on every page each time. I've heard of &lt;IFRAME&gt; but it doesn't seem to work with my Netscape 4.5.
