I am having a bit of an issue with my webpage. I have images (in the galleries) that are supposed to pop up in a separate, sized window when clicked. It works perfectly in Firefox but something is obviously missing/wrong as I receive an error in IE and Safari.

I swiped the popup code from another page and I know very little about javascript so I have not been able to sort it out yet. Here is one of the pages experiencing this issue: p22.html

I have looked around a bit online and experimented with it but I am still puzzled. I know it must be something obvious but it is apparently over the head of a lowly art-brain person. If you notice any other incredibly stupid mistakes please feel free to point them out.

J2SE stands for Java 2 Standard Edition. The 2 stands for version 2 of the platform. At the same time Java 1.2 was also renamed as Java 2 (the language I presume). Then came 1.3 (note it was never called Java 3). Now we have Java 1.5. Suddenly the big guns at Sun decided to [...]

What is a good book for learning javascript? I'd like something that will teach me but also act as a reference guide. I am considering Beginning JavaScript Second Edition.
My prgraming abilities are pretty much limited to modifying other's code, though I am a fairly quick learner.

There were many valid comments on this thread. I've finally had time lately to address the problems with my article by uploading my InputFilter class to phpclasses.org.

The Blurb:
This class can filter input of stray or malicious PHP, Javascript or HTML tags.
It can be used to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

It should be used to filter input supplied by the user, such as an HTML code entered in form fields. You create the filter object, configure it with your own settings, then call its process method to clean the form input values.

Example:
allowed tags: em, br
allowed attributes: title, selected

before: I hope this g>worksg>,
dont you?
after: I hope this works,
dont you?

I seem to be having trouble finding a working answer on any of the pages I've found using google. Let's say I've got a javascript function bob(). when the is clicked, I want the function bob() to alert the current x and y of the mouse. It works on IE as alert(event.x) and alert(event.y), but it doesn't work in Mozilla Firefox as any of the functions that I've been given. For example, e.clientX or e.pageX do nothing for me. What's the javascript code to return the mouse positions in Firefox?

Hi all
I am trying to use a javascript to confirm the deletion of a user in one of my PHP programs. I am using the javascript function confirm(). They way I read it, if the user presses cancel, all action from the form should stop and the browser will remain on the same age. If the user presses ok then the action of the form should be followed out. However whats happening is that no matter which button is pressed the action of the form is carried out. Am I missing something really obvious?

Here is the javascript :

	function confirm_delete()
	{
		var msg = "Are you sure you want to delete the user?";
		
		if (confirm(msg))
			//window.alert("Delete");
			location.replace("delete_user.php");
		else
			//window.alert("dont delete");
			location.replace("list_users.php");
	}

form method="POST" name="delete_user17" action="delete_user.php" onsubmit="confirm_delete();"
input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="17"

I want to develop the following site over the next few days: http://www.damn-them.com/

The problem that I face is that I have installed a copy of Windows XP Home edition and there is no IIS. Considering that I cannot view (let alone compile) any ASP.Net code the DotNet IDE without IIS, I cannot develop the above site on my current operating system. I wish that I could find an ASP.Net compiler online. As the development of Damn-Them is embryonic, either a VB.Net or C# ASP.Net compiler would suffice. If I do not resolve this problem quickly then I am going to trot to the pub. There is no chance that I will perform any reinstallation.

I found a possible solution (below). However, I do not have those files that it asks for:


General HOWTO for running IIS in Windows XP Home Edition.


by Richard Sandoz - Certified Java Programmer


(1) locate and edit the file C:\WINDOWS\INF\SYSOC.INF


(2) locate a section called [Components]


(3) find a line like this:
iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,hi­de,7


(4) change it to this (the iis cab in the i386 xp home folder looks to
be nothing)
iis=iis2.dll,OcEntry,iis2.inf,­,7


(some sort of ms caching thing keeps sticking back iis.dll when I try
to nuke it. quickly renaming and making hidden dir called iis.dll
seems to thwart, but not worth it, so iis2.dll is good enough)


(5) I grabbed the iis.dl_ and iis.in_ from win2k advanced server cd.


I would guess similar techniques would work from W98, FP, etc.
Use "EXPAND IIS.DL_ IIS2.DLL" from a command prompt
Same for IIS2.INF, place IIS2.INF in C:\WINDOWS\INF and IIS2.DLL in
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SETUP


(6) Now when I did "add windows programs" from the control panel's add
new programs,


I had IIS options and I could even check em off. yippee - could not
check em off from my xppro cd :(((


I just went with the defaulted ones though (all i needed was iis web
server)


(7) It will prompt you for files. Get em from MS XP Home CDs, Adv
Server CDs, C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\INETSRV, C:\WINDOWS\I386, etc. (It will
tell you the file it needs, you just need to have a searcher going,
probably the CDs will have all you need)


(8) You can get to your IIS from Control Panel's Administrative
Programs.
I stuck in an index.html file and reconfigure IIS to work like this.
No go :(((
I right clicked on my inetpub folder and did something with shared
folders. No go :(((
I looked at the event viewer and saw the error of my ways.
Go to IIS and goto Directory Security tab and click Edit button and
Browse for the user setup on my laptop.


(9) Yippee, hello world from http://localhost


I won't support this solution unless paid to. I am an out of work
developer looking for work.


I bought a Toshiba 5005 laptop which came with XP home.
I then bought Win XP Professional.
I have bunches of CDs from when I was a MSDN subscriber.
From a general search on the internet I found contradictions.


Microsoft says you need professional XP to do IIS period.
q310090 was yanked from their site which had the "workaround" for
this.


When I tried to setup XP upgrade to pro, my laptop rebooted and hung
on an xp logo with an animated graphic.
I have verified this to be the case with others as well. Upgrading to
xp pro isn't an option for this laptop.

Hey, I'm new to this community. I do web-design as a hobby and enjoy learning about new codes, but I do not claim nor wish to be a professional.
But sometimes school and job require that I make a website.

Anyway, I have a problem. I'm doing a website for a project and it has pop-ups. The pop-ups work fine in Safari and Firefox and all that, but they will not open in Internet Explorer for windows. I haven't tested it on I.E for mac, because it would hurt too much.

The pop up blocker isn't on and I'm getting a vague java error. Java's allowed and all that.

This is my code, without the tag bracket things:

script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"
//!--
function win1()
{ window.open ("http://kemotion.net/arts/galfa_1.html","win1","width=450,height=335,location=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,scrollbars=0,status=0,titlebar=1,toolbar=0") }
--
//!--
function win2()
{ window.open ("http://kemotion.net/arts/galid_1.html","win2","width=450,height=335,location=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,scrollbars=0,status=0,titlebar=1,toolbar=0") }
--
//!--
function win3()
{ window.open ("http://kemotion.net/arts/galgd_1.html","win3","width=450,height=335,location=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,scrollbars=0,status=0,titlebar=1,toolbar=0") }
--
/script




This is what I'm using as a link:

javascript:win2()


Help. I'm useless with java, it's on my list of things to take a class in, but at the moment I'm just trying to use what I can.

Thanks very much.

Since Mozilla Suite is no longer being developed, and Firefox is where everything is going, I decided it was time for me to make the jump. In the process I picked up a number of extensions and thought I'd document them in one place.

AniDisable - control animated gifs
Checky - links to validation services for XHTML, XML, CSS, etc.
ChromEdit - profile editor
ColorZilla - allows you to pick up a color from any element in the browser
Disable Targets For Downloads - prevents empty windows/tabs when you click a binary link
EditCSS - make realtime tweaks to a pages CSS
FoxyTunes - control your media player (iTunes, WinAmp, etc) from the browser chrome
Html Validator (based on Tidy) - validate HTML right in the browser, locally
I must not fear! - OK, so this just adds the line from Dune to the Tools menu. I like it. ;-)
ieview - open the current page in ie, useful for development testing
Image Zoom - pretty much what it sounds like
JavaScript Debugger - what it says
Linkification - makes plaintext URLs links
Linky - adds options for handling links
Longdesc - let's you view the longdesc attribute on images
miniT (drag+indicator) - drag tabs to reorder
Preferential - advanced preferences editor
Tabbrowser Preferences - provides a UI for editing hidden tab preferences
TinyUrl Creator - easily create a TinyURL from the current page
User Agent Switcher - lets you mimic other user agents
View Cookies - adds a tab to Page Info showing the cookies set by the page
Web Developer - adds a toolbar with web development tools

Anyone want to suggest something I should check out that I missed?

I also find this most useful - there are UIs in Firefox that aren't accessible. The chrome is there from the Suite, but the 'simplified' UI of FF has removed the links to the sub-elements: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Dev_:_FireFox_Chrome_URLs

For example: chrome://pippki/content/pref-ssl.xul - which also brings you here: chrome://pippki/content/pref-ciphers.xul - I like to disable weak ciphers.

I've been doing some looking in the last few days for a good text editor that's sufficiently customizable and feature-rich to leave me wanting for nothing. After downloading several programs, I found jEdit.

I was initially wary about it being written in Java, but it's really fairly stable on win98 SE and while it doesn't load terribly fast, it performs well after that. In addition to the features expected of a good editor like syntax highlighting, regex searching, code folding, split view and macros, jEdit has a large community backing it and as such is extensible to provide for most any need: multiple ways of dealing with several open documents (stackable tabs, docked window, buttons, even), FTP plugin, clip system, PHP parser and two different spell-checkers.

Hell, with the right plugins it'll even work as a hex editor. I've gone ahead and taken a screen shot for good measure: http://www.contemptible.org/smack/jedit.jpg

hey, I'm working on making a simple http and ftp server to share files and stuff from my cable connection here at the house. Its running apache on win xp, now if there is a folder with out an index file it generates one automatically. Now how do I customize this to change the background and how stuff looks and add links or what not? Do I have to do a server side script? or is there a way i can use java scripts or some sort of code in a html file? I'm kind of new, please help.
