I want to add a javascript google ad but I can't insert the javascript into the div using jquery. I try to simulate my problem with this test, which is using some advice I found on stackoverflow , but it does not work.
I want <script type='text/javascript'>document.write('hello world');</script> to be inserted in the div, and "hello world" be displayed between the tag_1 and tag_2.
Here is the code :
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
var str="<script type='text/javascript'>document.write('hello world');";
str+="<";
str+="/script>";
$('#insert_here').append(str);
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
tag_1<br/>
<div id="insert_here">
</div>
tag_2<br/>
</body>
</html>
Tanks for your answers,
Lucas
See my answer to Are dynamically inserted <script> tags meant to work? for why you can't use innerHTML, which jQuery's functions map to when passed a HTML string, to insert a script element. document.write will also fail when used after the document has been fully parsed.
To work around this, you will have to use DOM functions to insert an element into the div. Google ads are iframes, so it's usually a case of finding the iframe code and appending that instead.
To correctly insert a script element, you need to use DOM functions, for instance:
var txt = 'alert("Hello");';
var scr = document.createElement("script");
scr.type= "text/javascript";
// We have to use .text for IE, .textContent for standards compliance.
if ("textContent" in scr)
scr.textContent = txt;
else
scr.text = txt;
// Finally, insert the script element into the div
document.getElementById("insert_here").appendChild(scr);
I figured out a great solution:
Insert your Google Adsense code anywhere on your page - e.g. if your CMS only allows you to put this on the right hand side then stick it there.
Wrap a div around it with display:none style
Add some jquery code to move the div to the location you desire.
Since the javascript has already run there is no problem then with moving the block of script to wherever you'd like it to be.
e.g. if you wish to put 2 blocks of google adverts interspersed throughout your blog (say after paragraph 1 and after paragraph 4) then this is perfect.
Here's some example code:
<div id="advert1" style="display:none">
<div class="advertbox advertfont">
<div style="float:right;">
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
/* Video box */
google_ad_slot = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
google_ad_width = 300;
google_ad_height = 250;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#advert1').appendTo("#content p:eq(1)");
$('#advert1').css("display", "block");
});
</script>
p.s. #content happens to be where the content starts on my CMS (Squarespace) so you can replace that with whatever you have in your CMS. This works a treat and doesn't break Google ToS.
You cannot use document.write after the page has finished loading. Instead, simply insert the contents that you want to be written in.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() { // This is equivalent to document.ready
var str="hello world";
$('#insert_here').append(str);
});
</script>

I'm trying to make a money display for a form which I am making, now I found this script on the web: http://jsfiddle.net/QQGfc/ And I'm trying to implement it into my code like this: (but it's not displaying the text.)
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("MyEdit").innerHTML = "My new text!";
</script>
With this in the body
<?php
include'includes/header.php';
include'includes/slider.php'; //carousel
?>
<h2>Contact Information</h2>
<div id="MyEdit">
This text will change
</div>
Ay idea whats going wrong?
You imply that the JavaScript is in the <head>.
When it runs, the <body> hasn't been parsed, so the element you are trying to modify does not exist.
Either:
Move the script to after the <div> you are trying to modify.
Wrap the script in a function and call that function after the <div> exists (e.g. by binding it as a load event handler).
you should do it after the DOM is completely loaded:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.addEventListener("load", function(){
document.getElementById("MyEdit").innerHTML = "My new text!";
});
</script>
I have written a JavaScript file which is included in the head of the HTML code. This JavaScript code creates some new div and iframe on the webpage. Javascript creates these division after 10 minutes . this notification is forsession time out.
But I already have a division which loads oracle forms inside it. I want to keep this forms div in the bottom of page.
Is it possible to move this forms div downwards automatically when the new div appears (which are created by the JavaScript code). Nothing should overlap.
I want to keep div (created by JavaScript) on the top, because that contains a notification .
Below is the code I have written :
<html>
<head>
<title>Kshitij Jain</title>
<script src="../common/jquery-1.6.2.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#menu").html('<object data="http://209.34.231.132/forms/frmservlet?form=ClmRepymt&config=common">');
});
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var logoutPath = '<%=ServerSupportUtil.getURL(response,ServerSupportUtil.getApplURL()+"/servlets/MenuServlet?dirc=logout")%>';
var sessionTimeout = '<%=session.getMaxInactiveInterval()%>';
var refreshSessionUrl = '<%=ServerSupportUtil.getApplURL()%>/common/refreshsession.jsp';
var countDownSeconds = '<%=CommonSupportUtil.getSessionTimeoutCountDownSec()%>';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%=ServerSupportUtil.getApplURL() %>/common/net.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%=ServerSupportUtil.getApplURL() %>/common/AjaxSessionTimer.js"></script>
<style>
object {
width:825px;
height:625px;
z-index: -100;
}
</style>
</head>
<div id="menu"></div>
</body>
</html>
Here, the div having id='menu' contains oracle forms. Notification should appear above this div.
I cannot change my JavaScript code as it is generic for whole web application. All changes should be inside this JSP.
I assume your other js file which you haven't shown us is adding the content via appendTo('body') or similar. In which case, you can move this part:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#menu").html('<object data="http://209.34.231.132/forms/frmservlet?form=ClmRepymt&config=common">');
});
Below the script that loads the other content, and change it to this:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#menu").html('<object data="http://209.34.231.132/forms/frmservlet?form=ClmRepymt&config=common">').appendTo('body');
});
Which should move the #menu div to the end of the page.
I'm sure this is a fairly basic question, but I'm relatively new to jQuery so was hoping someone might be able to help.
Basically, I need to load an HTML snippet into a page. This works fine when the snippet contains just HTML, but not when it contains a script.
I've stripped down my code to the bare minimum for clarity. This is index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Heading</h1>
<div id="banner"></div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#banner').load('banner.html');
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
And banner.html contains just the following (as an example):
<h2>Subheading</h2>
<script>
document.write('Hello');
</script>
The script is executed, but for some reason it strips out the rest of the HTML in both index.html and banner.html (i.e. it just displays "Hello" and nothing else).
Any help greatly appreciated!
document.write after the page has load writes to the document, and at the same overwrites everything else currently in the document, that's why you end up with only the string "hello".
Just remove the document write :
<h2>Subheading</h2>
<p id="test"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById('test').innerHTML = 'hello';
</script>
that is becuase when banner.html is loaded .. the script inside banner.html get executed, which writes "hello" in your document(the document here is your entire index.html)
one way to understand this is by replacing certain content of banner.html rather than the whole document.
banner.html
<h2>Subheading</h2>
<div id="divID"></div>
<script>
$('#divID').html('hello'); //using jquery .. gets the element with id as divID and replace the HTML
</script>
here i am replacing just the div whose id is "divID" rather than replacing the enrite document
I have an HTML page with a typical structure:
<html>
<head>
<script src="..." ></script>
<style>...</style>
</head>
<body>
content
</body>
<script>
var success_callback = function(data) {
// REPLACE PAGE CONTENT & STRUCTURE WITH "data"
}
ajax(url, params, success_callback);
</script>
</html>
Do you think it is possible ? I've already tried to give the html tag an id and doing $(id).replace(data); with no success.
Don't ask me why, but that is what I need (I'm working with a special "mashup builder" site... it is a long story).
EDIT : I forgot to say that scripts in the received content have to be executed, even external scripts included using <script src="...">.
The simplest way is to set the new HTML content using:
document.open();
document.write(newContent);
document.close();
try this with jQuery:
$('body').load( url,[data],[callback] );
Read more at docs.jquery.com / Ajax / load
Here's how to do it in Prototype: $(id).update(data)
And jQuery: $('#id').replaceWith(data)
But document.getElementById(id).innerHTML=data should work too.
EDIT: Prototype and jQuery automatically evaluate scripts for you.
You could try doing
document.getElementById(id).innerHTML = ajax_response
the simplest way is
$("body").html(data);
Can't you just try to replace the body content with the document.body handler?
if your page is this:
<html>
<body>
blablabla
<script type="text/javascript">
document.body.innerHTML="hi!";
</script>
</body>
</html>
Just use the document.body to replace the body.
This works for me. All the content of the BODY tag is replaced by the innerHTML you specify.
If you need to even change the html tag and all childs you should check out which tags of the 'document.' are capable of doing so.
An example with javascript scripting inside it:
<html>
<body>
blablabla
<script type="text/javascript">
var changeme = "<button onClick=\"document.bgColor = \'#000000\'\">click</button>";
document.body.innerHTML=changeme;
</script>
</body>
This way you can do javascript scripting inside the new content. Don't forget to escape all double and single quotes though, or it won't work. escaping in javascript can be done by traversing your code and putting a backslash in front of all singe and double quotes.
Bare in mind that server side scripting like php doesn't work this way. Since PHP is server-side scripting it has to be processed before a page is loaded. Javascript is a language which works on client-side and thus can not activate the re-processing of php code.
I'm assuming you are using jQuery or something similar. If you are using jQuery, then the following should work:
<html>
<head>
<script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
content
</body>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("body").load(url);
</script>
</html>
I'm trying to write a javascript function that adds some DOM nodes to the document in the place it was called, like this:
...
<div>
<script type="text/javascript">
pushStuffToDOMHere(args);
</script>
</div>
...
i try to do it 'cleanly', without using node id property of the div, or innerHTML string manipulation. for that I need to know where in the document the script tag is located.
is there a way to do it?
Talking about cleanly, I don't think your approach is particularly clean. It is a much better idea to give the div a unique id and execute your javascript when the DocumentReady-event fires.
Do you have an overriding reason for doing it this way? If not the suggestion to use a unique id makes the most sense. And you can always use a library like jQuery to make this even easier for yourself.
However, the following quick test shows that if you use document.write() in the function then it writes the value into the place where the function was called from.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function dosomething(arg){
document.write(arg);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>The first Div</div>
<div>The
<script type="text/javascript">
dosomething("Second");
</script>
Div
</div>
<div>The
<script type="text/javascript">
dosomething("Third");
</script>
Div
</div>
</body>
</html>
But, again the question, are you sure this is what you want to do?
Although I agree with n3rd and voted him up, I understand what you are saying that you have a specific challenge where you cannot add an id to the html divisions, unless by script.
So this would be my suggestion for inlining a script aware of its place in the DOM hierarchy, in that case:
Add an id to your script tag. (Yes, script tags can have ids, too.)
ex. <script id="specialagent" type="text/javascript">
Add one line to your inline script function that gets the script element by id.
ex. this.script = document.getElementById('specialagent');
...And another that gets the script element's parentNode.
ex. var targetEl = this.script.parentNode;
Consider restructuring your function to a self-executioning function, if you can.
Ideally it executes immediately, without the necessity for an 'onload' call.
see summary example, next.
SUMMARY EXAMPLE:
<script id="specialagent" type="text/javascript">
var callMe = function(arg1,arg2,arg3) {
this.script = document.getElementById('specialagent');
var targetEl = this.script.parentNode.nodeName=="DIV" && this.script.parentNode;
//...your node manipulation here...
}('arg1','arg2','arg3');
</script>
The following TEST code, when run, proves that the function has identified its place in the DOM, and, importantly, its parentNode. The test has division nodes with an id, only for the purpose of the test. They are not necessary for the function to identify them, other than for testing.
TEST CODE:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test In place node creation with JS</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="one">
<h2>Child of one</h2>
<div id="two">
<h2>Child of two</h2>
<script id="specialagent" type="text/javascript">
var callMe = function(arg1,arg2,arg3) {
this.script = document.getElementById('specialagent');
var targetEl = this.script.parentNode;
/*BEGIN TEST*/
alert('this.script.id: ' + this.script.id);
alert('targetEl.nodeName: ' + targetEl.nodeName + '\ntargetEl.id: '+targetEl.id);
alert('targetEl.childNodes.length: ' + targetEl.childNodes.length);
var i = 0;
while (i < targetEl.childNodes.length) {
alert('targetEl.childNodes.'+i+'.nodeName = ' + targetEl.childNodes[i].nodeName);
++i;
}
/*END TEST - delete when done*/
//...rest of your code here...to manipulate nodes
}('arg1','arg2','etc');
</script>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Not really sure what your trying to achieve but this would pass the dom element to the function when clicked. You could then use jquery in the function to do what you wanted like so
...
<script type="text/javascript">
function pushStuffToDOMHere(element)
{
$(element).append("<p>Hello</p>"); // or whatever
}
</script>
<div onclick="pushStuffToDOMHere(this);">
</div>
...
my solution is a compbination of the (good) answers posted here:
as the function is called, it will document.write a div with a unique id.
then on document.onload that div's parent node can be easily located and appended new children.
I chose this approach because some unique restrictions: I'm not allowed to touch the HTML code other than adding script elements. really, ask my boss...
another approach that later came to mind:
function whereMI(node){
return (node.nodeName=='SCRIPT')? node : whereMI(node.lastChild);
}
var scriptNode = whereMI(document);
although, this should fail when things like fireBug append themselves as the last element in the HTML node before document is done loading.
