Thanks for the comment.
Actually what I've done was pass URL parameters with pre-define conding mechanism in my application. Your suggestion is worth to try, but I've already done it in that way. I'll give a try later on your suggestion.
Thanks again. 
I appreciate your help all the time...

How status bar can be refreshed inside a loop? Is it even possible?
for(i = 0; i < items.length; i++ )
{
if(items[i]._category == category)
{
window.status = ('fillItemContent()' + ": " + i);
.
.
.
}
}
That doesn't work.

status will probably not update as the message pump will not release until the loop stops and functions exit.
This is the same for windows forms etc.
I don't think you can force a refresh as you can with forms apps either.
One option might be to update a shared variable and then set up a timer that update the status based on the shared variable value and then the timer retriggers its next update timer tick. Use a flag to determine if the timer should continue to update or not.

I'm new with JScript, i'm C, C++ coder. Would u be kind enough to show me an little example. So, i make global variable or pass variable to setTimeOut method and update the status bar in there - or...what? The goal i want is to show load progression in status bar...and just practicing for fun...

Id doesn't update the status bar in the loop...
var autoUpdate = true;
var autoUpdateString = "";
function updateStatusBar()
{
window.status = autoUpdateString;
autoUpdateString += ".";
}
function fillItemContent(category)
{
.
.
.
for(i = 0; i < items.length; i++ )
{
if(items[i]._category == category)
{
if(autoUpdate)
{
setTimeout(function() { updateStatusBar(); }, 10);
}
...
}
}
}

That is not how it should be. You need to drop the loop, just have a function that executes one iteration of it, and if it isn't the last iteration, use setTimeout to call itself again. That way the main (and only) thread gets relinquished for a short while, so the GUI can be updated and more calculations will happen later on.
Here[^] is an example.

You are still trying to use a loop.
You should perform an incremental increase on one item in each update then re-initiate the timer to call the update process for the next update, repeat until all items are updated.

here is what you should do:
1. remove the for loop
2. look closely at the example given by Dave
3. stop removing your messages

Hi all,
is there any issue that you comes with chrome and IE when setting script with innerHtml in div element?
I'll explain it in this way.
I've define my own div element as popup message (just by floating on top of the page) and works fine. I can set html text on it as well properly. But when I set some script on it, FF works fine but chrome and IE not works fine. Anyone of you have an idea about that?
Hope you are clear with my issue, if not please let me know.
Thanks
I appreciate your help all the time...

Can you provide an example that doesn't work in IE? Until then, here are some general guidelines:
Use "innerHTML", not "innerHtml".
Use createElement, set its innerHTML, then add it to the DOM, rather than adding the element to the DOM then setting the innerHTML. So, do this:
var newDiv = document.createElement("div");
newDiv.innerHTML = "Hello, <b>World</b>.";
var oldDiv = document.getElementById("myDiv");
oldDiv.parentNode.insertBefore(newDiv, oldDiv);
oldDiv.parentNode.removeChild(oldDiv);
newDiv.id = "myDiv";
Alternatively, avoid the use of innerHTML completely:
var mainDiv = document.getElementById("myDiv");
mainDiv.appendChild(document.createTextNode("Hello, "));
var boldWorld = document.createElement("b");
boldWorld.appendChild(document.createTextNode("World"));
mainDiv.appendChild(boldWorld);
mainDiv.appendChild(document.createTextNode("."));
Here is a hack that may or may not work:
var mainDiv = document.getElementById("myDiv");
mainDiv.innerHTML = "Hello <b>World</b>.";
mainDiv.innerHTML = mainDiv.innerHTML;
Depending on your specific issue, I've also seen hacks that modify the z-index so the browser knows to refresh the content.

Thanks for the reply.

Sorry about that, by mistake I've type it.
Say my string is something like this, it's working actually.
newDiv.innerHTML = "<script>function call_Al(){alert('this is a message');}</script><a href=\"#\" onclick=\"call_Al();\" >Click Here</a>"
I appreciate your help all the time...

This is not a bug rather a safety feature. You cannot add javascript code dynamically to a page after it has been rendered. Which means you can put the script content on the innerHTML, but it will not be processed by the script engine.
The only way I know of to dynamically add more script to a page after the initial page render is by using eval on the script string. Keep in mind though that means that the script you are adding is being executed.

Thanks for the comment.
can you have a look at in my previous reply. I try to wrap the string with eval() function, but it wont work too.  I'm totally lost.
