I really don't know how to describe it, but if you understood it and had experience on that field, may be you can help me with something 'Open Source' and 'Ready-made'.
I want to create something like a box 'or widget', where you can change its content by hitting some buttons on the top of the box. (Hey the box is on a web page and this should use Ajax and Javascript).
I have tried some ready scritps, but I found them limited and they drive me crazy, JS frameworks also don't seems to offer such solution.
Any body have any idea on that field?
Just because the box is on a Web page doesn't mean it should use AJAX, Omar. Have you thought about using a third-party solution like ClearSpring or WidgetBox? If you need to put your widget onto Myspace, you'll want one of these.
That said, I've taken a couple of JavaScript-only runs at this problem; see Twitterati and Put Your Digg In A Box for examples, and my Global Widget Summit presentation for explanations.
Have you tried Jquery?

I have a short snippet of jquery code that I use to pick and submit a specific choice in a drop-down menu on a website.
For now, I've pasted the code into the console, but I would like to set up some form of simple local module with a button, that when clicked runs the jquery code on the specific website.
I don't know much coding aside from a bit VBA, so I'm unsure what's the best way to go about this. Intuitively, I imagine that it shouldn't be that difficult of a task, but I can't quite wrap my head around how I set it up and if it's even possible to click a button in a local module that then performs an action on a webpage.
Really hoping some of you might be able to give me some guidance. Any help is appreciated!
Best regards
Magnus
Ideally, I would like to do this in VBA, but i'm unsure if it's possible to run jquery scripts from VBA. I'm using Chrome Browser by the way.
Hi I had come across a question how to achieve suggestions in the input field while typing for example (in browser url bar while we typing first 3 to 4 letters it give suggestion if the url is correct we go with it else with single delete key press remove the suggested content). This need to be done with input field. Is this scenario is possible? Thanks.
There's a big range of possibilities here.
If the contents of the list are static or easily generated via code, you can use a native HTML <datalist> element.
If you are wanting autocomplete in the form using the user's previously-provided data, you can just enable via the <input autocomplete> attribute
If you're wanting far more customization, it's going to have to be some JavaScript that does the dirty work for you. Stack Overflow is not a good forum for getting library suggestions, but you should survey what's available in your current development stack.
This is absolutely achievable, have a look at - typehead.js
It's a javascript project for doing exactly what you're asking, I believe it's compatible with boostrap too.
Autocomplete suggestions are a very common Web Component. If you are using jQuery, you might want to try this component published by Materialize. If you are using, say, Polymer, you might want to try paper-autocomplete. If you are using vanilla javascript, you could try typeahead, or something like this autocomplete library. Most other modern web frameworks will have some alternative. I wouldn't really recommend making one from scratch.
i am designing a website where user can enter text in a formatted way, i have worked in asp.net where i have used AJAX toolkit and used HTML text editor control. i require similar kind of feature but i don't know how to achieve this feature in jsp.
As you will be answering this question you will be doing some formatting below, i just want to implement the similar kind of feature.
I couldn't show my work as this problem is what i have to solve first. Please let me know how can i do this. !
but i am talking of the answer box of stack overflow or similar
thanx...
If you want a free version then use TinyMCE. It is fast and uses jquery and setting it up is really easy and you can buy it to activate other features too.
But if you want to pay for it then you can use Cute Editor, from my experience you need to buy licence per domain.

Please have a look at http://500px.com/photo/3977429?from=popular. Down in the right corner, theres a sharing box. It looks pretty similar to sharethis. But, afaik, sharethis doesnt have embed or submit for example, and im looking for those options. Does anyone know which plugin is used here? Thanks
On the page you linked to, they didn't use anything like sharethis or addthis - they rolled their own. Looking at the code, its clear that they went to facebook, got the facebook like button, embedded it - then wen to google, got the google plus button, etc... and made a grid of them.
You can stylize the sharethis buttons with css to pretty much any extent,
or you can add a grid like that of your own.
The available alternatives to sharethis.com are :
addthis.com
addtoany.com
socialmarker.com
I'm sure there a a lot more out there, but those seem to be the most popular.
If you want something custom like they have and want access to the buttons
here are some sets of images you may be able to use:
http://speckyboy.com/2009/01/26/30-amazingly-creative-social-bookmarks-icon-sets/
Inspecting the source leads me to believe that it is custom work. The images, links and such are placed in the HTML serverside. Only the stumbleupon is pulled from stumbleupon itself. But also not trough some third party service like sharethis.
I have a few questions that need answering. I am trying to create a Google Chrome extension and I need every page to be monitored for a keyboard action. I have added a content script that runs on the page load and when you click the keyboard shortcut an alert is shown.
What I want to do is instead of an alert have something like fancybox, thickbox, etc... however all of those are jquery plugins which adds a dependency to my js file. I tried launching the plugin before my js file but it still does not work.
I run the content script from the manifest.json file with
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches":["http://*/*", "https://*/*"],
"run_at":"document_start",
"js":["jquery.simplemodal.1.4.1.min.js", "shortcuts.js"]
}
],
I cannot execute an HTML page where the js is located I have to use a js file.
so what I want to know is if either there is a way to include the plugin without physically adding it to my file or if there is a way to call the js file which then just executes an HTML file or if there is another way of creating a popup screen like fancybox that is already included in js.
Another question I have is if there was a way to embed HTML into an alert box (this is a backup if I cannot figure out the above question)
and finally does anyone know of an execution command for x-webkit-speech? I want the command to start recording and somehow some people have used some commands (none of which answer my question) so someone somewhere knows a little more about this function then me. I would really appreciate help with this I am really close to finishing my program and these are my last holdups with these questions answered I will be able to release my extension. Please help where you can I have researched and researched everywhere all different ways of trying these things and none have worked.
edit:
You were correct (JHurrah) including the jquery actually solved the problem I really appreciate that. simple yet successful I just assumed the jquery provided was enough but I guess everyone knows what happens when you assume especially when programming.
NewTang I have already looked at that website however I will relook at it and see if I missed anything thanks for the help
yeah see I don't have that I have link edit and flag I looked all over and did not see an add comment button at all... :[
since simplemodal is a plugin it depends on jquery, try including jquery in your manifest before the other scripts.
"js":["jquery-1.5.2.min.js", "jquery.simplemodal.1.4.1.min.js", "shortcuts.js"]
I"m a little confused by your question, but I'll give it my best shot.
1) I think you're trying to ask: Can I use a content_script to inject HTML. The answer is yes, but only through Javascript. So, you could have something like:
//using jquery
$("body").append("Hi, I'm on the bottom of the page");
Your javascript would have to create or load the HTML that would get inserted into the page.
2) No, no HTML in an alert box. You're on the right track with using lightbox, thickbox, etc.
3) There's not many resources on x-webkit-speech, but maybe this can help you get going: http://nooshu.com/experimenting-with-webkit-form-speech-input
