Pop up/window notification in OWA

Tue, 09 Dec 2008 01:07:51 -0500

Hi All, I have seen in OWA (Outlook Web Access mail) that as soon as someone mails me, I get a small pop up/window saying that "I have a new mail". I was wondering how can I do that. [:-?] Can someone tell me the logic behind this [:D] as I know that I need to refresh the page in order to get new updates. But this trick defy the very basic logic of web, i.e. it tells me that I ...

show and hide functions not working

Mon, 06 Oct 2008 12:17:12 -0400

This is a bit of code I wrote along the lines of a suckerfish type menu. It targets the anchor instead of the list item to allow focus to be applied and add keyboard functionality. Then traverses up the DOM until it finds a LI with a UL as a child (in case the anchor is nested in a extra span or other inline element for adding styles). Assigning the class works alright, only the top level LIs ...

Sat, 26 Apr 2008 13:46:49 -0400

Hi, I'm rather new to javascript, so hopefully someone can help me out! I'm trying to add a method to a DOM element. What I've coded works great in Firefox, but in IE I get this error: Error: 'b.constructor.prototype' is null or not an object Here's a simplified example, which obviously serves no purpose, but I just simplified it to show you what I'm trying to do: ...

Hi, I've taken over a site doing minor editing and the site is built in flash I think. I don't know flash at all yet . . . why are the files in the root folder pane of Dreamweaver not showing up? I'm trying to upload a new video- does it need to be in swf? I upload flv all the time and works great. It's with godaddy and when I try to upload anything I get an access denied message, ...

JDOMP - DB access without AJAX using Javascript, DOM, Php

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 15:57:00 -0400

Don?t misunderstand me ? I use AJAX, but I think there is a far simpler, elegant alternative that just uses Javascript, the DOM and Php ( hence - JDOMP) for data transfers, and is cross-browser without the need for work arounds. JDOMP works in recent versions of Explorer, Mozilla, Safari and Opera. Please note I will not deal with security issues which are always an issue whenever there is access ...

Good DOM tutorials anywhere?

Tue, 03 Jun 2008 16:39:38 -0400

Oh have I enjoyed the last 3 weeks, the luxery of focusing myself on what I know... accessibility. *Sigh* But back to work, back to C#, SQL, Coldfusion, .NET, Visual Studio, COBOL, AJAX all of which I am trying to learn at once. Now I am arguing to making something accessible [b]before[/b] we go live with it rather than wait for a change in state policy and then redo it... and I am ...

troubles with eval and Ajax.Response.responseText in Prototype

Wed, 16 Apr 2008 10:48:42 -0400

Hi all, I'm running into a situation where it seems that JS stops executing as soon as I call an eval in my script. I have an Ajax.Request call to a PHP page that builds a JS object and returns it as the responseText. I want to attach that object to the document (or anywhere else that would allow me to access it later), and to do that, I THINK I need to eval it because it's just a string ...
