    Javascript slideshow problem in IE only

    Hi all,

    I've written a small piece of code to scroll through images in an array and fade in and out of each image (a slideshow).

    I have a div, with an image inside which is the same size. By changing the image.src and div.backgroundI mage and then adjusting the opacity I can transition the images.

    It works fine in firefox and safari but special-needs IE won't update the images on this line (line 15) of code;-...

        How do you retrieve a <select> selected option in javascript ?

        Hi,

        I need to check a form (consisting mostly of select elements) and ensure that none of the values are empty/null.

        Unfortunately I don't know how many select elements there will be so I need to be able to loop through as many items as there could possibly be.

        Form example;-
        Code:
        <form id='FormID' action='action.php'>
  <select name='select1'>
    <option>Option
        ...

          Javascript fade problem - doesn't affect <table> in ie8

          Hi,

          Please see my website;-

          http://www.footballpre dictions.comli. com/

          We, in the office, like to predict the football results every week, and put a £1 bet on who gets the most correct.

          Click on the ball, and it will show a div with the first elements of a form.

          When you click then 'next' button, it calls to a javascript function that fades that div out, and then fades the...

            replied to How to open local files in a mac via browser
            in HTML CSS
            Thanks for your response Musofreak.
            I have Apache and MAMP installed and running with no problems.
            Irrespective of my PHP code, all I need to know is how to launch a file which is stored locally on the mac (in a folder that is not viewable by Apache server).

            If I type the path from the code above into the address bar of either Safari or Firefox then it will open the file, but the link itself does not work.

              How to open local files in a mac via browser

              Hi,
              I am making a database based PHP site for my friend to run locally on his mac.

              He wants a page where he can click on a link to his most used files - word docs etc. stored on his desktop for instance.

              I thought this would be easy by using the following;-

              Code:
              <a href='file:///folder/word.doc'>Open file</a>
              I tested this on my PC at work (NOT on local webserver)...

                replied to Horizontal dropdown menu position problem
                in HTML CSS
                Ok, I have solved my problem.
                It was an issue with the text length differing causing the <li>s to be longer/shorter so I have given each a set width and now it should work accross the board.
                Thanks Dormlich, I have downloaded firebug, looks quite a handy little program.

                  Horizontal dropdown menu position problem

                  Hi,

                  I'm struggling with a cross browser solution to position my menu ul and li elements in the same place inside a div.

                  I'm sure it's something simple, but any help or advice is still greatly appreciated.

                  This is the home page - http://amberleyknights .110mb.com/home.html

                  The dropdown menu on 'information' is simply a div that I have a javascript function to change the visibility from "hidden"...

                    That is correct. I only need to run this on 1 page.

                    Thanks again for your help.

                          Thanks for your help Jared, I actually managed to work it out in the end, but your explanation helps me to understand why this works so cheers for that (I did it a little bit backwards, but works in the same way!) Code below

                          Code:
                          variable = Request.querystring("formname")
  
     Set check = MyConn.Execute("select * from table where name='" & variable &"'")

                            Hi,
                            I'm fairly new to ASP and I want to check a form input against my database to see if an entry with the same name already exists and have an if..then and else clause based on this.
                            I think I'm going about this the wrong way as I get an error when the database doesn't find a match.

                            Code:
                            variable = Request.querystring("formname")
