Without some information about the actual relationships among the limits and the value, there is no way to begin advising you about this. At a first glance, the original Value is the midpoint between the limits in your first example. But there is no way to justify an assumption that any other set of limits will produce a new value that is again the midpoint, unless that is by design and not stated in your post.

In the event that the midpoint is, in fact, the value you want, the formula for that is

Value = (UpperLimit + LowerLimit)/2

for all pairs of limits.

Are frames that bad

what does everyone has against pages with frames in?
the way i see it, frames prevent sections of pages - like a menu - from being loaded more than once since it appears on all the pages.
or is this invalid?

It is quite valid, especially if the menu items are dynamic due to database queries for rights, content, etc. The big issue that people have with frames is the scrolling. So, if you use frames, make sure that they are as small as possible, so that the main content frame is maximized, helping reduce the amount of scrolling required.

onwards and upwards...

In addition, most search egine robots stop at FRAMESET pages and do not sunbscribe the other pages...

The robots seem to follow A tag links only... not all of them but a few work this way...

Would you like only your home page or all web pages of your web site to be subscribed in search engines?

Ever tried using ? Its a floating frame, which you can put in your existing html page, pretty cool and you can tweak around with it a lot.

Just copy/paste the text below to an empty HTML file:

<HTML>

<script>
function WhatEverFunc()
{
// what ever code you want
// i.e. the open window call (window.open("popup.html");
  alert("Hope this code helps you");
}
</script>

<BODY>
 <input type="button" onclick="WhatEverFunc()" text="Click here" value="Click here" />

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?

theJazzyBrain15-Jul-03 1:51

15-Jul-03 1:51

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
