Codestore tips
- Domino orientated, but several general HTML and JavaScript tips.
1. If doing a "View - Refresh" (F5) fails to refresh then try Ctrl F5.
This should do a COMPLETE refresh of the page and all resources linked to it, such as images and stylesheets etc.
2. For links whose action is irreversible, to make the user confirm what they are doing, use the JavaScript onclick event:
<A href="..." onclick="return confirm('Are you sure?');">...</A>
The above link can be dragged to Links in the IE toolbar, and invoked from there for any page.
N.B. After resizing as above, the window (sometimes) cannot be further resized by dragging the edges.
Fixed resizes which may be useful are:
window.location = "mailto:mike@chelys.demon.co.uk?subject=subject text&body=the body of text";
OR
<form action="mailto:michael.mcclellan141@gmail.com" method="get">
<input name="subject" type="hidden" value="Feedback">
Feedback:
<textarea name=body cols="40">
Please type your feedback here and then click the Send Feedback button.
</textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Send Feedback">
</form>
N.B. Spaces typed in may be replaced by + characters.
17. Using a path to a folder as a URL will display the folder contents:
or
Double clicking on a file will open it, as in Explorer.
18. Simulate a pop-up window by changing the width and height of an INPUT box:
19. NT: to set or get rid of the sound when click on a link:
Start | Settings | Control Panel | Sounds | Windows Explorer | Start Navigation.
20. To display a file type (e.g. Pascal Source, .pas) in MSDEV via a click in an HTML file:
Right click on Start | Explore . . . | View | Options . . . | File Types |
if Pascal Source does not exist already, New Type | Description of type = Pascal Source |
Associated extension = .pas | Content type - leave blank | New . . . |
Action = Open ("Open with MSDEV" occurs sometimes, but this only works with Windows Explorer) |
Application used to perform action = e.g. "D:\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin\msdev.exe" "%1" |
Use DDE = yes | DD Message = Open("%1") | Application = msdev |
DDE Application Not Running - leave blank | Topic = system | OK | Close |
Confirm Open After Download = No (otherwise get "Open or Save" dialog box when click) |
Enable Quick View = No | Always show extension = yes | Close.]
- Do this for:
C++ Source
.cpp
C Source
.c
C/C++ Include
.h
Pascal Source
.pas
Pascal Include
.pin
Assembler Source
.asm
Assembler Include
.ain
Legends for Pascal
.leg
Link control
.lnk
and in the HTML file use the file name as a URL. e.g. <A href="cSCA.pas">cSCA.pas</A>
21. IE bug (oct03) if cache contents get above some threshold level (which might be as low as 150Mb):
Saving an image by right click | Save Picture As... only allows .bmp format,
instead of .jpg (default) and .bmp.
This also applies to pictures in newsgroups.
In IE, do Tools | Internet Options... | Temporary Internet Files: Delete Files... | OK.
and Tools | Internet Options... | Temporary Internet Files: Settings | Amount of disk space to use = 100Mb.
Registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\InternetExplorer\MenuExt
(- create if this key does not exist).
- add own key e.g. NewFunction, with default data e.g. files://c:\entmv\Html\NewScript.html
- optionally add String Value Contexts with binary data in hexadecimal the OR merge of:
Default
0x01
Images
0x02
Controls
0x04
Tables
0x08
Text selection
0x10
Anchor
0x20
Use external.menuArguments to access the HTML file.
e.g. (from PCPlus) to copy the current page to the clipboard:
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" defer>
var parentwin = external.menuArguments;
var rng = parentwin.document.body.createTextRange();
rng.execCommand( "Copy" );
</SCRIPT>
- See
execCommand Method - executes a command on the current document, current selection, or the given range.
Also available is e.g. parentwin.document.activeElement which is the right clicked element.
More examples (from PCPlus):
French To English Dictionary ("../../Html/PCPlus/FrenchToEnglish.html")
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
var parentwin = external.menuArguments;
var rng = parentwin.document.selection.createRange();
var str = new String( rng.text );
var op = new String ( "http://machaut.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/FR-ENG.sh?word=" +str );
if (str=="") alert ("No text selected!"); else
open(op);
</SCRIPT>
Also:
English to French Dictionary ("../../Html/PCPlus/EnglishToFrench.html"). Dictionary Lookup ("../../Html/PCPlus/DictionaryLookup.html") - Cambridge dictionary. Search ("../../Html/PCPlus/Search.html") - searches Google. Spell Check ("../../Html/PCPlus/SpellingViaWord.html") - Word must be installed. Find Domain Owner ("../../Html/PCPlus/DomainOwner.html") - uses SamSpade. Copy Links ("../../Html/PCPlus/CopyAllLinks.html").
With RegEdit go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\0
Change the key 1201 from 0x00000001 to 0x00000000
Cleaning Up
When the operator finshes a session on a PC, several bits of information may be left available to a subsequent user:
The cache files are in the Temporary Internet Files folder and they can be erased normally.
To remove the cookies, erase the contents of the Cookies folder.
The History folder contains information about the sites visited, and can be safely erased. It will be recreated when Internet Explorer next starts.
N.B. The display in Windows Explorer when viewing the Temporary Internet Files or History folders is not the actual directory contents,
but an image built from index.dat database file, which is kept locked by Windows shell and cannot be erased.
Even if all files from Temporary Internet Files folder have been 'erased', Explorer will show names and locations of web sites visited.
To complete cleaning, index.dat must be cleared:
Start | Settings | Control Panel | Internet Options | General | Delete Files... | OK | Clear History.
To also clear AutoComplete entries (if it is turned it on):
Start | Settings | Control Panel | Internet Options | Content | AutoComplete | Clear Forms | Clear Passwords.
For complete security, also erase unused space on the drive where the history files and the cache are stored.
(- see e.g. WebAttack: Eraser)
in the toolbar),
create Registry entry:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.html\OpenWithList\msdev.exe
