The following code is a test piece. Normally the href in the Link would point to "http://www.google.com/", but the attr should change it to reference "http://maps.google.com" BUT, the reference is not changing. Can anyone tell me why it is not working? Thanks
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("a#changeme").attr('href',
'http:\/\/maps.google.com/');
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">
<p>Link to <a href="http://www.google.com/"
id="changeme">Google</a>
in the content...</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
jQuery is not loaded.
If it was, you would have to wrap it in a $(document).ready handler.
This can be done without jQuery.
Code:
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById("changeme").href = 'http://maps.google.com/';
};
The onload handler is not exactely equal to the DOMContentLoaded handler, but it has a better support, and may be preferred here. Alternatively, you can move the <srcipt> block to the end of the <body>, and then use the method without any onload handlers:
<body>
<div class="content">
<p>Link to Google
in the content...</p>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
// This code is placed after the element, so the reference does exist now.
// In the head, the same code will throw an error, because the body doesn't
// even exist.
document.getElementById("changeme").href = 'http://maps.google.com/';
</script>
</body>
The script is in the header so it's executed before the other content has been loaded (if jQuery is even active, seeing no reference to it). You should put it in a function and then call it later on (e.g. through onload or a timer). I could as well think of a security feature in the browser, to keep sites from manipulating links right before you click on them.
Here is the code for the correct jQuery way to do this (using the document ready).
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#changeme").attr('href', 'http:\/\/maps.google.com/');
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">
<p>Link to <a id="changeme" href="http://www.google.com/">Google</a>
in the contenttest...</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>

I want to do a quick javascript check from within the head tag, like so:
<html>
<head>
...
<script>
document.body.classList.remove("no-js");
document.body.classList.add("js");
</script>
</head>
<body class='no-js'>
...
</body>
</html>
This doesn't work. Cannot read property classList of null, which...fair enough. If I move the <script> tag into <body>, everything works, but I want the <script> tag in <head>.
What are my options?
EDIT: I should have been much clearer about the error. I realize the problem is that body hasn't loaded when I'm trying to to add the class. However, I was using a bit of Modernizr originally and it was somehow able to modify the body class from within the head and I don't think it was using window.onload or anything like that.
Run the code after body is loaded. There are several approaches to solve the problem:
Move the code into a named function defined in global context and call it in onload.
<html>
<head>
...
<script>
function load() {
document.body.classList.remove("no-js");
document.body.classList.add("js");
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="load();" class='no-js'>
...
</body>
</html>
Or move code to DOMContentLoaded event listener callback in order to call after dom elements are loaded.
<html>
<head>
...
<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
document.body.classList.remove("no-js");
document.body.classList.add("js");
});
</script>
</head>
<body class='no-js'>
...
</body>
</html>
Or move the entire script tag to the end of the page.
<html>
<head>
...
</head>
<body class='no-js'>
...
<script>
document.body.classList.remove("no-js");
document.body.classList.add("js");
</script>
</body>
</html>
At the time the javascript is executed there is no body tag, because the browser hasn't gotten around to it yet. You need to either add the script tag in the body, or add it as an event to execute when the document has loaded. See DOMContentLoaded for an example.
I have two html file
a.html
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
hello every one
</div>
</body>
</html>
and another page
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="result">
</div>
<iframe id="ifr" src="http://example.com/a.html">
</iframe>
<script type="text/javascript">
divv = $('#ifr').contents().find('div#content').clone();
$('#result').html(divv.html());
</script>
</body>
</html>
In second one I try to get first html and get contet div in it.after that I put this value to result div .
but It's not work. How can I do that.
You do not need to use an iframe; you can use ajax to do that. It's very straight forward.
$(function() {
$('#result').load('a.html #content',function()
$(this).html( $('#content').html() );
});
});
EDIT
As evident from comments below, scope of question has changed. The two pages are on different domains without CORS. Therefore the above answer would not work.
In order to use ajax, you may want to create a server-side script to act as a proxy. Then you'll call that script on your server and it will fetch the a.html page for you.
I guess that could be the right way.
var ifr = document.querySelector('#ifr');
var html = ifr.contentDocument.querySelector('div#content').innerHTML;
$('#result').html(html);
I need to run JavaScript code in iframe. But script with id "us" loaded after creating iframe. How to run this javascript in iframe?
<iframe id="preview">
#document
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script id="us" type="text/javascript">
$("#preview").ready(function() {
$(".test").click(function() {
alert(true);
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<style></style>
<div class="test"></div>
</body>
</html>
</iframe>
Thanks in advance.
The IFrame has no access to what's outside of it. Everything inside IFrame is separate page ergo you threat it like so. So you do your document.ready in it.
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/ZTJUB/
// Since this is page you wait until it's loaded
$(function() {
$(".test").click(function() {
alert(true);
});
});
The jQuery instance inside of the iFrame doesn't know it's supposed to be traversing the parent DOM, so therefore it won't know where to look for an element with the id "preview"
As per my comments above, you should attach to the iframe's document.ready, like this:
// Since this is page you wait until it's loaded
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".test").click(function() {
alert(true);
});
});
EDIT:
Just realizing you are probably having an entirely different issue here - Html code as IFRAME source rather than a URL - if you are trying to embed the iframe code inline, you are going to have problems. Take the following code for example:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
Some stuff here
<iframe id="preview">
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script id="us" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".test").click(function() {
alert(true);
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<style></style>
<div class="test">test</div>
</body>
</html>
</iframe>
</body>
</html>
if you render that page in firefox, and then inspect the source in firebug, you'll see:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
Some stuff here
<iframe id="preview">
<html>
<head></head>
<body></body>
</html>
</iframe>
</body>
</html>
This is happening because the browser isn't expecting to see the code inline between the iframe tags.
Since you're not addressing the questions in the comments to better clarify what you are trying to do... I shall assume you are trying to access content IN your iframe FROM your parent page. Since the other answer should work fine if trying to run it from within the iframe.
On the parent page try something like:
$(function() {
$("#preview").load(function ()
$("#preview").contents().find(".test").click(function() {alert(true);});
});
});
*This assumes both parent and iframe are on the same domain.
I am currently embedding a third-party javascript file directly on my page.
However, the website I'm embedding it from takes a while to respond so it stops the rendering of my site for several seconds.
I'm currently embedding it on my page on the spot where it will write some values:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="[third-party site/file.js]"></script>
The response from the embedded script is just some JavaScript:
document.write('<div class="value">Value 1</div><div class="value">Value 2</div>');
I was thinking that after the page loads use jQuery to make an AJAX request and somehow parsing the response so I can get the values I need.
Is there be a better approach?
You can place this script inside a hidden element on the end of the body (just before </body>) and, after the page has loaded, move it to the desired location with jQuery.
<div id="hiddenElement">
<script type="text/javascript" src="[third-party site/file.js]"></script>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#hiddenElement").appendTo("#someOtherElement");
});
</script>
</body>
Another solution would be to use jQuery .getScript() to load the script in the desired location as you said and #James McDonnell said.
$(document).read(function()
{
$.getScript(/* src */)
});
This will run after the page has loaded.
$.getScript()
Perhaps this could be part of your solution. Here is a stand-alone jQuery example where a button is used to trigger a change event on a DIV. This example just shows you how to access the html content of the div and to see how to manipulate/change it. This is not a solution for you but parts of it might be useful when combined with rcdmk's and James' ideas.
<html>
<head>
<!--<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>-->
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#button_test').click(function() {
$('.value').html('New stuff').change();
});
$('.value').change(function(){
$('div').each(function() {
alert($(this).html());
});
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="value">Value 1</div>
<div class="value">Value 2</div>
<button id="button_test">Click me</button>
I am learning Javascript and I am trying to learn some pretty basic stuff. Basically I have some text in a <p> tag which I want to append to a variable. However it is not working an I'm not sure why. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var x = $('p').html();
document.write(x);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p class="first">Hello World </p>
</body>
</html>
Wrap your code in $.ready handler:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
var x = $('p').html();
document.write(x);
});
</script>
The ready handler fires after DOM has loaded and parsed meaning only then you can maipulate tags (or DOM).
You are running your script before The <p class="first">Hello World</p> is reached in your HTML. Put your script in the body instead just after the <p> tag:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"> </script>
</head>
<body>
<p class="first">Hello World</p>
<script type="text/javascript">
var x = $('p').html();
document.write(x);
</script>
</body>
</html>
You can also use jQuery's ready function like some others have said, but that's an inefficient solution since you already know at which point in the document the <p> tag is loaded. It's much better to run your script as soon as it's loaded then to wait for the whole document to load using $.ready.
I can't see anything what isn't working (example)
maybe you should write
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
//your javascript code
})
but if it doesn't work with that either I should remind you that document.write normally replaces the content
