You can try this to open the window in full screen.

window.open('page.html','','top=0,left=0,height=' + screen.availHeight + ',width=' + screen.availWidth);

You can also try adding, subtracting some from the screen.availHeight, screen.availHeight etc to adjust your window as per your requirements.

how do I remove a node?

I am using the DOM along with DHTML to dynamically manipulate html...

According to a certain event I need to remove a node, but I cant find a method for removing or deleting nodes.

I am aware of the replaceNode() method but this requires another node to replace the old one with which is not good for me...

Any ideas? Confused | :confused:

Thank you

Using DHTML, you can always parse out the HTML tag of the element you wish to delete from the parent's innerHTML and set it back. EX:

function DeleteElement(oElem) {
var oParent = oElem.parentElement;
var cParentHTML = StringReplace(oParent.innerHTML,"\r\n","");
var cDeleteHTML = StringReplace(oElem.outerHTML,"\r\n","");
              
var iIndex = cParentHTML.indexOf(cDeleteHTML);
if (iIndex > -1)
  {
    oParent.innerHTML = cParentHTML.substr(0,iIndex) + cParentHTML.substr(iIndex+cDeleteHTML.length);
  }

}

function StringReplace(cSearch, cFind, cReplace) {
var iPos = cSearch.indexOf(cFind);
while (iPos > -1)
  { 
    cSearch = cSearch.substr(0,iPos) + cReplace + cSearch.substr(iPos+cFind.length);
    iPos = cSearch.indexOf(cFind);
  }
  
return cSearch;
}

Hope this helps (and i just typed this in, so don't rely on it working).

Kinda expensive solution Smile | :)

DOM1 defines the removeChild method, so why not use it:

var parent = document.getElementById("anelement");
var child = document.getElementById("anotherelement");
parent.removeChild(child);

IE DOM0 implements the removeNode method:

var child = document.getElementById("anotherelement");
child.removeNode(true);

You cant

The workers and I tried for days to find a way and NOTHING!!!
But...
we came up with this resault:

<script>
function OpenWndFullScreenMode()
{
 window.open("popup.html","","top=<code>-30</code>,left=<code>-10</code>,width=<code>1024+10+25</code>,
height=<code>768+30+10</code>,directories,location,menubar,resizeable,scrollbars,toolbar");
// this code works only on resoultion of 1024-768
// the 'top=-30' will put the window title above the screen
// the -10 will put the window border outside the screen
// the +25 will put the scrollbars outside the screen
// SO............
// You have the efect of a full screen window without scrollbars
// NOTE: if u use the fullscreen flag in the open() function
// You <code>can NOT</code> remove the scroll bars
}
</script>

Hope I helped you...
I not sure about the specific '-10' '+25' and '+30' numbers
but you got the idea.

Thanks for your help in closing the window.

In addition you can get the width and height of the screen like this:

var screenWidth  = window.screen.width;<br />
var screenHeight = window.screen.height;

in order to make your code more generic and it will work for any resolution...... Big Grin | :-D

JAVA SCRIPTING - incorparating time scheduling in a slide show

Nelo Angelo14-Jul-03 22:24

14-Jul-03 22:24

I'm a newbie at java script and have made a slideshow which randomizes which pics and so on.

But now I want to display only certain sets of pics inbetween certain times e.g. between 06:00 am and 07:30 am set 1 then back to normal then 11:45 am and 12:50 pm set 2 and so on, and I'm having problems puting all this on a fullscreen with no scrollbars or anything just the pics.

If anyone who reads this can help it would be greatly appreciated.

hi
I dont know how u can check the system time, but...
if u know how then u can do this:

Set an interval using the 'setInterval' function to check the time every
1000 ms (=every second) or 60000 ms (= every minute).
for example

<script language="JavaScript">

var NumberOfPicsForEachSet=5;
var NumberOfSets = 3;
var use_set = 0;
// here we create the each set
var YourSetsOfPics= new Array(NumberOfSets);
YourSetsOfPics[0] = new Array(NumberOfPicsForEachSet);
YourSetsOfPics[1] = new Array(NumberOfPicsForEachSet);
YourSetsOfPics[2] = new Array(NumberOfPicsForEachSet);
//here we initialize each picture for each set
YourSetsOfPics[0][0] = "pic01.gif"
YourSetsOfPics[0][1] = "pic02.gif"
.
. // the first [] is for the set and the second [] is for the picture (I think)
.
YourSetsOfPics[3][2] = "pic08.gif"
YourSetsOfPics[3][3] = "pic09.gif"

function CheckTime()
{
 var the_time;
 the_time = YourFunctionToGetTheTime();
 use_set= 2; // use the 3rd set in the array
 if ((the_time>"6:00") and (the_time<"7:30"))
  use_set = 0; // use the 1st set in the array
 if ((the_time>"11:45") and (the_time<"12:50"))
  use_set = 1; // use the 2nd set in the array
}

function OnDocLoad()
{
// check the time every second
<code> setInterval("CheckTime()",1000);</code>
}
</script>

<body onload="OnDocLoad()">
</body>

Hope I helped you...
I m not sure you can use the [][] like I showed you.
but if u can... good for you (I think it should work.

Date Validation in JScript

14-Jul-03 3:17

Is there any function that would tell me if some date is
correct or not. I have distinct year, month and day variables
and i would like to call some function that would take all these
parameters. If e.g month would be 14 , than function should somehow let me know that the date is not correct.
The same if I enter 34 for day or 31 if february month is set...
, etc.

Thanx for any suggestions

PHP has a date function like that, but AFAIK JavaScript doesn't. But it wouldn't be hard to emulate that function.

Try this date validation script, I found on the net

/**
* DHTML date validation script for dd/mm/yyyy. Courtesy of SmartWebby.com (http://www.smartwebby.com/dhtml/)
*/
// Declaring valid date character, minimum year and maximum year
var dtCh= "/";
var minYear=1900;
var maxYear=2100;

function isInteger(s){
var i;
for (i = 0; i < s.length; i++){
// Check that current character is number.
var c = s.charAt(i);
if (((c < "0") || (c > "9"))) return false;
}
// All characters are numbers.
return true;
}

function stripCharsInBag(s, bag){
var i;
var returnString = "";
// Search through string's characters one by one.
// If character is not in bag, append to returnString.
for (i = 0; i < s.length; i++){
var c = s.charAt(i);
if (bag.indexOf(c) == -1) returnString += c;
}
return returnString;
}

function daysInFebruary (year){
// February has 29 days in any year evenly divisible by four,
// EXCEPT for centurial years which are not also divisible by 400.
return (((year % 4 == 0) && ( (!(year % 100 == 0)) || (year % 400 == 0))) ? 29 : 28 );
}
function DaysArray(n) {
for (var i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
this[i] = 31
if (i==4 || i==6 || i==9 || i==11) {this[i] = 30}
if (i==2) {this[i] = 29}
}
return this

var strDay=dtStr.substring(0,pos1)

}
if (strMonth.length<1 || month<1 || month>12){

}
if (strDay.length<1 || day<1 || day>31 || (month==2 && day>daysInFebruary(year)) || day > daysInMonth[month]){
alert("Please enter a valid Delivery Day")
return false
}
if (strYear.length != 4 || year==0 || year<minyear ||="" year="">maxYear){
alert("Please enter a valid 4 digit Delivery Year between "+minYear+" and "+maxYear)

}
if (dtStr.indexOf(dtCh,pos2+1)!=-1 || isInteger(stripCharsInBag(dtStr, dtCh))==false){

Just pass the date from your form to this function
if(isDate(dtePlanDate)==false)
{
return false;
}

Hello All,

I am needing advice on how to use a map such as mapquest, or another.

Do I do a link to mapquest and post on my clients site?

Or, do they charge a fee for this? I have seen this setup on many sites out there, and was wondering if anyone has experience with this kind of thing.

Thanks In Advance.

I believe that the default setting for hotmail is the tightest selection - only accept mail from users in your address book. I have mine set one notch lower, and tonight I had 563 emails in my Inbox, and 64 in my Junk Mail box. All of them are spam. It's probable that most most ISPs use a similar, totally inadequate filter.
