The difference being...?

Do you mean you want to select multiple files at once (i.e. an entire folder)?

raushan_914-Jul-09 23:02

14-Jul-09 23:02

yes.....
means select only Folder... not a particular file....

AFAIK this can't be done with html,php,javascript and css - I've done it with adobe flash though - and there's bound to be a Microsoft control if you using asp/c# etc.

No.

"AFAIK this can't be done with html,php,javascript and css"

Sorry, but you'll need to use something else. JavaScript cannot access the desktop (filesystem).

you can't do this with php/javascript/html/css. You might have more luck with activex. But I think you might run into another problem in that every printer is different - so unless this is for one printer only, you might end up rewriting it for every printer(!)....

I don't know much about activex either - you might have to write a different one for each browser as well.

Javascript problem causing me issues!!

Hi there,

I am experiencing a problem which no doubt someone else has come across before but I cant work out for the life of me what the deal is with it.

I have included code below for an onload function and its call that enables me to be able to call multiple functions on-load. There are two at the moment, one that calls the current date and time and puts it in a div and another that "refreshes" an AJAX call and places content in yet another div.

The problem that I am having is that although both functions are being called (the second one is made in another script using a version of the same function call), only the second one is actually producing visible content (in this case a text field). However if I alert a message between the function calls both bits of content are produced as expected.

The code is as follows:

//The function call

print "window.onload = callOnLoads(\"getCurDateTime\", \"\", \"\", \"\")";

//The function definition

function callOnLoads(pageFunction1, pageFunction2, var1, var2)
{
    return function() 
    {              
        if (pageFunction1 == "getCurDateTime")
        	getCurDateTime();
        
               
        //var 1 in this case is the dirToUse variable and var 2 is the userID	        
        if (pageFunction2 == "addDocType")
        	addDocType("addTypeDiv", "", "", var1, var2);      	
    }
}

The function call is made from a PHP script and the JS definition is held in a JS file.

Anybody have any ideas about this? Im guessing its something to do with the speed of execution given that if I halt it with an alert it then works!

As always, any help is very gratefully received.

Bryant

I don't really get your code - but if it work with a pause (alert) the you could try using php's "sleep()" or the JavaScript equivalent
