View Full Version : HTML & Javascript problems

I am trying to use javascript when posting certain messages to that when clicked, will open a pop up window.



If you go here: www.everydayjones.com and look at the Upcoming & Previous Shows section, you will see the error I get.



In the headinclude template I have typed this:





<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function popUp(URL) {

day = new Date();

id = day.getTime();

eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=1,width=400,height=400');");

}

</script>





I have also typed that in the vbindex_headinclude template



In the message I have typed in HTML and I have HTML turned on. For the link, I am using this line of code:





<a href="javascriptopUp('http://everydayjones.com/msgboard/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=1&day=2004-8-12&c=1')">The Swiss Pub, Tacoma Wa</a>





Anyone know why I might be getting the error it produces?

for some reason after the <a href=" code it is putting the website address and THEN <b></b> and then the rest of the javascript code.

This is weird.

<a href="javascript<b></b>:popUp('http://everydayjones.com/msgboard/calendar.php?do=getinfo&amp;e=2&amp;day=2004-9-30&amp;c=1')">The Swiss Pub, Tacoma Wa</a>

that's probably the reason, I grabbed that from your page source.

but I'm putting exactly this in the message:


<a href="javascript:popUp('http://everydayjones.com/msgboard/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=1&day=2004-8-12&c=1')">The Swiss Pub, Tacoma
WA</a>


So, why is it automatically changing it?

no one knows? This must be more difficult than previously thought to fix.

can you post the entire message here? Looks like there's something funny going on in the bbcode parser.

is this what you wanted? I posted the message in HTML on my board.

um, what we need is the exact message you post on the message board, such as what you enter in the text field for a new thread that contains this funky link. (unless this is it) :)

yeah, thats the thread. I'm the admin and I'm the only one that can post in this forum because it supports HTML and I only use HTML for formatting purposes. I also use it for the popup links that will call upon the calendar events. I use to use these popup links on Invision Power Board and it worked fine.

For some reason, after "<A HREF=" it is putting the {board _url} and after "javascript" it is putting <b></b> for some odd reason.

Maybe this is a vbindex problem.
