I meant the Javascript code that is handling the response FROM the servlet. Not the Java code that is providing the response.

Post the code that handles the response from the servlet.

I think I understand what you were trying to say:

var ids = [];
$('#rightList > li').each(function(el) {
ids.push(el.id);
});

You forgot the echo
vart pt = <?php echo json_encode($prt); ?>

jQuery is actually one of the simplest Javascript libraries around. It's important to know at least a one be it jQuery or Prototype or Mootools, etc. The reason those libraries exist is to save you...

Well that only applied to the document.querySelector part. jQuery supports pretty much every modern browser. http://jquery.com

in Firefox you can use the built-in document.querySelector and document.querySelectorAll which use CSS selectors to find DOM elements. Similarly using the jQuery library you can do things like
...

Just remove the surrounding click event ie.,

$(".run").click(function(){ ... });

var bd = new Date();
if ((bd.getDay() > 0 && bd.getDay() < 6) && (bd.getHours() >= 8 && bd.getHours() <= 17)) {
//show
} else {
// hide
}

Your image is being cached because it's the same URL. Add a random URL parameter to prevent it from being cached.

document.getElementById('captchaImage').src="captcha.php?_rnd=" + Math.random();

You could give http://labjs.com/ a shot.

Inside the function basicAjaxSwitch you are defining a variable basicAjaxSwitch so it's being overwritten. Just use a different variable name inside the function.

A) Use code tags
B) This is a PHP problem not Javascript
C)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> // <---- this is your problem because of the <?
If you're in PHP you have to echo the <?xml...

Show us your code otherwise we're just guessing

You can do something like this

<form action="delete.php or whatever" onsubmit="return confirm('Are you sure?');">
That will pop open a box that says "Are you sure?" with yes and no buttons, if...

You can't. Simple as that :) Even if you did disable it with javascript all the user would have to do is disable javascript and hit printscreen.

It's the same for pretty much every browser.
document.getElementById('someidhere');

It should be noted, however, that you can hack around it by not using an array but using an object like so

for ( i in ['key1', 'key2'])
alert(i); // 1, and 2 respectively

// BUT

for ( i...

No you can't. i in your scenario is the key for each value so the only way to get the actual value would to do ['val1', 'val2', 'val3'][i] which would defeat the purpose :)

You can't, the alert dialog uses the system's (or more accurately, the browser's) theme. If you want to change the way alerts look you will have to create your own modal dialogs.

This isn't exactly what has to be done but it's a start. Take a look at w3schools.com for more javascript tutorials on opening windows

<script type="text/javascript">
var popupSomeWindow =...

You could have the click be on an <a> tag with a target="_blank" which will open a new window. But if they have javascript enabled you can bind events to it with onlclick to open a popup and return...

If you use a Connection: keep-alive header then the browser would never know when the AJAX call is finished and you've never get data back. AJAX calls are fairly inexpensive unless you're sending...

You have to make an AJAX call to a server-side language which executes the command-line utility. Javascript can't access your server's filesystem directly.

Well an HTML page is laid out like a tree.
/*
HEAD
|
BODY
\
DIV <-- SPAN's parent node
\
SPAN
/ \

You should still make your checks for length before this but this will check for numbers like 1111111 and 999999


var phone_number = "9999999";
if (!/^(\d)\1{6}$/.test(phone_number)) {
...

You have C = document.frmOne.txtThirdNumber.value *1 in your function so if that field doesn't exist and you try to perform an action on it ( *1 in this case) the function will die.

Thinks you can do to try and help yourself:

Search the Daniweb forums for the 8000 other posts asking what AJAX is
Google for "AJAX"
Google for "AJAX tutorial"

Neither of those links are bad, read them.

What language are you using the for backend? (PHP, ASP, whatever)

The poster marks the thread solved though admins probably have the ability it's not really their job to do so.

It does save newlines, but my guess is that on output you're not using nl2br. The browser ignores newlines when rendering text unless it is in a <pre>, <code> or tag with white-space:pre applied. So...

You would setup a server-side script (using PHP or ASP or whatever your language is) that uses cURL or whatever your language uses to make and output the response. Then your AJAX call just points to...

They're called regular expressions and they're the best thing since sliced bread. http://www.regular-expressions.info/

var somestring = "Hello!@World, I have ^Spe_cial[ Chars";
if (!/^\w+$/.test(somestring)) {
alert('Bad Username');
} else {
alert('Good Username');
}

w3schools.com is your friend

A) Use <script type="text/javascript>, not <Script language="JavaScript">, it's old and the language attribute is deprecated
B) Your code doesn't actually do anything since it's never called (or at...

You can get it done with just CSS

#some_id {
position: fixed;
}

It isn't a Netbeans project but it is a JSP AJAX primer (found by searching AJAX JSP on google...) http://www.ics.uci.edu/~cs122b/projects/project5/AJAX-JSPExample.html

It should also be noted...

Sure, it COULD be done with AJAX but there is absolutely no reason to. The term/acronym AJAX describes making a request to the server then receiving and parsing XML. There is absolutely, positively...
