johndoe2005 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Hi, I need help. I have 3 files: 1. A html file that contains the DIV element to display web content using innerHTML via AJAX 2. A javascript file (myscript2.js) that handles the AJAX and update the DIV.innerhtml and also 'jumps' to an anchor tag created by the 3rd file, process.php 3. A php file (process.php) to generate the anchor tag and to return content. What i want to achieve: 1. When the content is returned to client, I wish the content to jump the anchor tag, which was defined at the server. 2. I tried to use the document.getElementById('myLink').click() to have Javascript to jump to it. This works in IE, but it doesn't work in FF and Chrome. Request for help: How can I solve this for all browsers? Note: i. For the Ajax I am using prototype.js. ii. The codes are attached. Thanks. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8"/> <title>classic-ish</title> <script type="text/javascript" src="prototype.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="myscript2.js"></script> </head> <body onload="sendRequest('');"> <div id="DisplayBlog"></div> <!-- For AJAX power! --> </body> </html> /******************************************************************************* Filename: myscript2.js Function: sendRequest Date : 18/09/2010 Purpose : To send request to server (using prototype.js) ********************************************************************************/ function sendRequest(myText) { new Ajax.Request( "process.php", {method: 'post', parameters: {string: myText}, onSuccess: showResponse }); } /******************************************************************************* Filename: myscript2.js Function: showResponse Date : 18/09/2010 Purpose : To show response on the browser. ********************************************************************************/ function showResponse(req){ text = req.responseText; //displays the content returned from server. document.getElementById('DisplayBlog').innerHTML = text; //Automatically clicks on the link. //The browser should shows starting page as "This is where the link will jump to". //My problem is this works in IE. //But it is not working in Chrome and FF.
