[Different timers need to pauze the global page on specific triggers]

You can simply declare a global variable called pause and set it to false. When you want to pause everything, set it to true and when the move is finished reset it to false. Varify the pause variable on all your other functions, e.g.

var pause = false;
my_func(){
    if (pause) return;
    // do other stuff
}
move_func(){
    pause = true;
    // move code
    pause = false;
}

[Why does the variable become rounded?]

If you use setAttribute, you would need to use getAttribute to see the value.

e.g.

var player = document.createElement( 'audio' );
player.setAttribute('volume', 0.;
alert(player.getAttribute('volume')); // alerts 0.8
alert(player.volume); // alerts 1

// setting the volume directly
player.volume = 0.8;
alert(player.volume); // alerts 0.8

 

 

[OnSubmit versus OnClick... but not the normal question]

Newer browsers seem to trigger a click even when the user hit enter key on a form. However, older browsers dont (that's include IE8 and lower). So you should stick on the onsubmit event for now.

[Javascript Sum/Add Time Dropdown Input Fields]

You are using getElementById but your select elements don't have an id attribute. Second, you can't add the time as the format you use in the select values. You'll get three strings put togather instead of the total time. You might want to change the value into the minutes (as numbers) so you can add them togather.

[question relating to php]

The only way to read a file local is via ActiveX (IE only) and the user will get a scary warning every time they load your page.

[Javascript - How can I replace a textarea with its contents?]

Your code should work fine, but you might have a structure problem.

If all the textareas are under the same parent, the parent innerHTML will be the first textarea (after that you'll get an error). So, you HTML should be something like this

<div id="purchase-order-area">
    <div>
        <textarea id = "notes5" rows = "3" cols = "105" value = ""></textarea>
    </div>
    <div>
        <textarea id = "notes6" rows = "3" cols = "105" value = ""></textarea>
    </div>
</div>

[Javascript - How can I replace a textarea with its contents?]

what is "textareaBoxes", are you using getElementsByTagName('textarea')?

[Issue with Visibility and InnerHTML not working IE9]

If you want to use innerHTML for a select menu in IE, you would need to write the whole select tag and populate the div innerHTML

e.g.

var html = '<select><option>Hello in IE</option></select>';
document.getElementById('my_div').innerHTML = html;

Otherwise, you would need to create the options as elements (e.g. using document.createElement) and append them to the select menu.

[How do I change tr background color using checkbox AND have that color $_POST]

First, you would need to use a radio button since the user can only select one option and pass the object to the function because I assume you have more than on table row

<input type="radio" value="#FF0000" onclick="changeColor(this);" name="Table_Row_1" />
<input type="radio" value="#FF0000" onclick="changeColor(this);" name="Table_Row_1" />

 

If your function, you can get the table row by looking up the parents node of the element

function changeColor(obj){
    var td = obj.parentNode; // table cell
    var tr = td.parentNode; // table row
    tr.style.backgroundColor = obj.value; // change the tr background color
}

[Hidden element will not display in IE]

First you are using getElementById('head1') and your input doesn't have an id property. If you have a div with the id "head1", it might cause a conflict because IE uses the names for input fields as variables. You might want to rename it to "head1_div" or something like that.

 

You are trying to show, hide the input checkbox (head1) instead of the form and since it's undefined, you'll get an error.

[Cant see the difference between these two functions.]

Javascript is case sensative, you declared formInputs and use forminputs

[Facebook LikeBox manipulation]

Regardless of what code you use, the final HTML (produced by JavaScript) is a simple iframe and you can't change it.

[function to change input text name]

Yes, your onclick will work. If you want to make a function, you can do the following

<input type="radio" onclick="my_name_change_func('english');" ....
... later in your script...
function my_name_change_func(nm){
    document.getElementById('pfc_words').name = nm;
}

You can just use the following

document.getElementById('pfc_words').name = 'MY_NEW_NAME';

you don't need jquery or anything else

[Ajax / Javascript / PHP / Jquery -> Dynamic Data With Range Sliders]

The best way to learn ajax is to play with it. You can use the examples on jquery website or make your own

[validate and submit form when enter is pressed in input(textbox) field]

If you have a submit button, you don't need to check for the keypress. By default, the form will press the first submit button when the user hit the enter key. To validate the form, your validation function should be on the form.submit event (not the submit button click event).

[Filling in the content with javascript]

getElementsByClassName is not supported in IE before version 9, use getElementsByTagName,

e.g.

// "first" is the id for the main div that is holding all the input fields
var eles = document.getElementById('first').getElementsByTagName('input');

[How do I append a DIV with HTML]
