I know I know love the subject matter.... and the date is coming up soon. So this can be a quick fix revamp.
It just needs to be changed from the ghastly design or lack there of design.

can't crop Tribe photo: is this a javascript problem?

voidportal — Sun, 10 Jun 2007 19:08:49 GMT

There is a bug that's been around for a couple months now: you can no longer crop your selected user icon. I know very little about Flash (or javascript), but, looking at the source code, it looks like either a javascript or flash problem. And Tribe engineers (if they exist) seem to be ignoring this one).

Making a divs max height the height of the browser window

Greg — Mon, 26 Feb 2007 08:09:01 GMT

I don't think there's a straight css solution to this. But I could be wrong.

In a web page, I have a div that I want to have a max-height of 100% -- of the available space. Basically, I want it to fill up the screen vertically, but not leave the screen out the bottom -- so no scroll bars ever appear to scroll the ENTIRE page. However, if the content in that div is more than what vertical height is available, I want scroll bars to appear only on that div (overflow: auto;).

A good example of what I'm talking about is Google Calendar: calendar.google.com

Check it out, on say, the Weekly view. A scroll bar DOES appear, but only for that div. You can resize your browser window and the div with the calendar in it will resize accordingly. You never get a normal browser scroll bar....just a scrollbar for that section.

Anyone know how to do this? Links to articles online? I've looked around and couldn't find anything....

Thanks.

javascript assistance...

darin — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 04:14:15 GMT

I was wondering if anyone here knows of a good place to find *up to date* javascript scripts for making short mp3 audio files playback for onmouseover events. Specifically, this script would play short sounds when the little squares are hovered over with the cursor and it should work using the Firefox 1.5, 2.0 and IE6 and 7 browsers.

Additionally, I read about a technique online for incorporating multiple onmouseover events for a specific element and have attempted to implement it as described on the web. Apparently, the use of a span tag around the separate onmouseover and onmouseout events is a solution but I have a feeling that the audio playback function script I'm using in the head of the page source for the audio playback is not recent enough and as such, the files won't play back if I get the multiple onmouseover events to work anyway. The examples on the site where I got the script from don't work and the text describes needing some plug-in for Netscape, not Firefox. <shrug>

The first page at http://www.belief-systems.com/ includes several functions at the top of the source in the head portion. The first few were written by someone else and are now my legacy but the audio script was written by someone that uploaded it to a site and I can't get it to work with the existing legacy javascript code for the page.

Any suggestions or tips are much appreciated.

Here's the site link again where the audio playback function can be perused via the page source:

http://www.belief-systems.com/

Audio script:

// Preload and play audio files with event handler (MouseOver sound)
// designed by JavaScript Archive, (c)1999
// Get more free javascripts at http://jsarchive.8m.com

var aySound = new Array();
// Below: source for sound files to be preloaded
aySound[0] = "mp3/CR-78Cabasa.mp3";
aySound[1] = "mp3/JoustBump.mp3";
aySound[2] = "mp3/RobotronCoin4.mp3";
aySound[3] = "mp3/WobbleResUp";

// DO NOT edit below this line
document.write('<BGSOUND ID="auIEContainer">')
IE = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE")!=-1 && document.all)? 1:0;
NS = (navigator.appName=="Netscape" && navigator.plugins["LiveAudio"])? 1:0;
ver4 = IE||NS? 1:0;
onload=auPreload;

function auPreload() {
if (!ver4) return;
if (NS) auEmb = new Layer(0,window);
else {
Str = "<DIV ID='auEmb' STYLE='position:absolute;'></DIV>";
document.body.insertAdjacentHTML("BeforeEnd",Str);
}
var Str = '';
for (i=0;i<aySound.length;i++)
Str += "<EMBED SRC='"+aySound[i]+"' AUTOSTART='FALSE' HIDDEN='TRUE'>"
if (IE) auEmb.innerHTML = Str;
else {
auEmb.document.open();
auEmb.document.write(Str);
auEmb.document.close();
}
auCon = IE? document.all.auIEContainer:auEmb;
auCon.control = auCtrl;
}
function auCtrl(whSound,play) {
if (IE) this.src = play? aySound[whSound]:'';
else eval("this.document.embeds[whSound]." + (play? "play()":"stop()"))
}
function playSound(whSound) { if (window.auCon) auCon.control(whSound,true); }
function stopSound(whSound) { if (window.auCon) auCon.control(whSound,false); }
//-->

Span tag example from the belief-systems.com source:

<td width="11%">"http://www.belief-systems.com/GrnWaterLeaveSqr.html" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('document.Image6','document.Image6','images/busblock2.gif','#926390205966')"> <span onMouseOver="playSound(0)" onMouseOut="stopSound(0)"></span><img name="Image6" border="0" src="images/cblock-off2.gif"</td>

The span element is withing a div tag that defines this entire area on the page [see the source code of the page for confirmation of this fact].

Hopefully, there's a script that will get me to approx. 80% compatibilty without having to be so complicated although, I do understand that IE is a craptacular browser for javascript, from what I'm told from web developer friends that I've worked with.

Again, any assistance is welcome

Does Javascript NOT jive with Tribe?

ecrivaine32 — Thu, 07 Sep 2006 14:42:21 GMT

The following is the javascript that is supposed to display my tagcloud from another site, www.blinklist.com/ecrivaine32, on my Tribe blog. Well, does javascript just not jive with Tribe anywhere on my Tribe area? Or is there a way around it? Something I'm missing here?

Please suggest if you know.

The script is: <script type="text/javascript" src="www.blinklist.com/Ecrivaine...t;/script>

Phantom white pixels on javascript slideshow

Claudia — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 13:15:31 GMT

I am having problems with white pixels appearing during a transition on a javascript slideshow.

I have used two different slideshows on my site - (one runs multiple slide-shows on one page)... the codes are little different in places but both use blendtrans, and the problem occurs in the second code script...

I post some samples of the script around the transition command...

**** this code works fine ****

var t
var j = 0
var p = Pic.length

var preLoad = new Array()
for (i = 0; i < p; i++){
preLoad[i] = new Image()
preLoad[i].src = Pic[i]
}

function runSlideShow(){
if (document.all){
document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans (duration=2)"
document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans (duration=crossFadeDuration)"
document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Apply ()
}
document.images.SlideShow.src = preLoad[j].src
if (document.all){
document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Play( )
}

****

**** this code produces pixels ****

// do not edit anything below this line
var t3;
var ImgIdx3 = 0;
var PicLen3 = Pic3.length-1;
function runSlideShow3() {
if (document.all) {
document.images.SlideShow3.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=2)";
document.images.SlideShow3.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=crossFadeDuration3)";
document.images.SlideShow3.filters.blendTrans.Apply();
}
document.images.SlideShow3.src = Pic3[ImgIdx3].src;
if (document.all) {
document.images.SlideShow3.filters.blendTrans.Play();
}

****

My knowledge of javascript is limited to whatever I have picked up - so it is patchy. I am wondering if the problem is related to not pre-loading images? If anybody could give me some pointers with this problem I would be very grateful.

regards

Claudia

Pausing a script using onMouseOver

Claudia — Thu, 22 Jun 2006 16:49:22 GMT

I have a rotating banner script which is very neat and handles 3 linked banners ... but what I want to do is be able to pause the cycle by rolling over another series of images ... www.scabal.net ... (the list of text should stop the slide-show, and secondly it would be super if it stops it in the right place - but just to pause the slideshow would be enough at the moment.) Having used several other scripts, that were quite cumbersome, I would like to stick with the script that I have got and just add to it.

The code is like this...

<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">

</script>

Then I have an onload="rotate()" in the body tag... and so on and so on to run the slideshow.

Any ideas would be gratefully received!

regards

Claudia

Javascript Q

Fri, 24 Mar 2006 05:41:49 GMT

Hi folks! So I have been working on a client's site and used a standard set of Javascript rollover buttons ... such as can be found *here*

http://javascript.internet.com/generators/preload-images.html

for the nav bar. This worked fine so long as there were a maximum of 9 buttons - but the client now wants 11 pages on their site and I am finding that buttons 10 and 11 are not loading the images. I presume this is something to do with the use of double figures for the numbering of the buttons and have googled around for an answer but no luck. Any ideas?

Site is up at http://www.altaryourreality.com

Thanks!

AN.

Refreencing a local file

EM3 — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 14:25:29 GMT

I may have forgotten some of this.

Is it possible to have a JavaScript function that takes the results of a BROWSE control and opens that HTML file in a separate window of a specific Name (for example, Window_File)?

JavaScript Calculator

Referencing an external resource...

EM3 — Sun, 26 Feb 2006 11:27:45 GMT

Okay...

I have a function that determines whether or not a number is prime. Basically, you give it a number and it checks a big table of known primes and then it checks a few division tricks and then it checks to see if any of the numbers in the prime table divide it.

Of course, if it finds the number in the table, it immediately kicks back a TRUE.

The more tricky the number, the longer it takes to find. The final stages is that it just basically goes through brute force division to determine.

My table-of-primes is a table that contains the first 10,000 primes. However...

There are plenty of web pages and online resources that have long lists of primes.

Using only JavaScript, is there a way I can access some list out there. For example, my first thought was to find a list page and open it in a JS window and parse the code into an array.

But off the top of my head, I'm not sure if this is possible.

Suggestions? Ideas?

An RGB graphics display in JavaScript

EM3 — Fri, 17 Feb 2006 16:41:17 GMT

Sample.html will show you a collection of graphic images produced by the Sample.js graphics functions, which are driven by the base function in Grafix.js. Everything uses this base function. SampleMaths.html and SampleMaths.js use JavaScript to produce a mathematical circle, plot it out into 2D RGB space, and then draw the image. This is another example of using Grafix.js to draw a mathematical result. Very handy!

Any ideas on how to make it faster?

Here's the link:

n-digit random number generator

EM3 — Fri, 17 Feb 2006 16:33:02 GMT

One of the modules I eventually want to add to my online calculator is a random number generator that produces a random number from 1 to n, for any n.

So, I'm posting the code below.

The algorithm seems straightforward enough, but someone over dinner a few months ago told me "Well, you know that algorithm doesn't actually produce a random number, right?"

I didn't have a chance to catch up with him on that, but can you see if there's any obvious glitch?  The only thing it doesn't do is strip out leading zeroes.

Here's the HTML

<!DOCTYPE html 
     PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
     "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></meta>
    <title>JavaScript Sample</title>
    <script src="Sample.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <form name="MainForm">
      <p>Number of Digits: <input type="text" name="Digits" id="Digits" size="20"></input></p>
      <input type="button" value="Produce Random Number" onclick="Randy(Digits.value);return false;"></input>
    </form>
  </body>
</html>

and here's the contents of the JS file, "Sample.js"

function Randy(Argument)
  {
    var Answer="";
    var Counter="";
    var RandDigit="";

    for(Counter=0; Counter<Argument; Counter++)
      {
        RandDigit=Math.floor(Math.random()*10);
        Answer = Answer + RandDigit+"";
      }
  alert("Answer = " + Answer);
  }
