Re: IE not rendering consistantly with Opera and FF

I would imagine the problem may lay elsewhere (possibly in the HTML) as IE renders a body background colour just fine. Start working backwards, removing the table and seeing what effect that has. There is also nothing wrong in specifying a width as a percentage (contrary to above comment)

I am in the process of re-designing the site so it is quite possible that I did make a mistake in my editing. I am validating the code as XHTML, a stricter standard than HTML, so I would have expected the valadion parser to have choked if I made a mistake in formatting.

What has me confused is that the site renders well in Opera and FF but not in IE and I am not using any formatting that is not common HTML.

I am making an async XMLHTTPRequest which is working in all browsers so that is not the cause of the rendering problem (famous last words).

Since the entire page has to be rendered before the body onload event fires triggering the async request it shouldn't matter but I have been fooled into thinking that I know what is going on before. I will take it out for a test just in case it is the cause of the problem.

If that doesn't work I will start to build the page again adding components until I can detect where I am going wrong.

Thanks for the help.

I'm on-line therefore I am.

javascript 'new RegExp()' notation

I have the following regular expression for validating email addresses

/^(([^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@\"]+(\.[^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@\"]+)*)|(\".+\"))@
((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\])
|(([a-zA-Z\-0-9]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$/

I would like to use the expression with the javascript 'new RegEx("Insert Regex")' notation. However, I am struggling to format the expression properly when trying to put it inside the quotations.

Can anyone show me how the regexp should look to work with the 'new RegExp()' notation?

Thanks in advance

If you want to use the new keyword to create the RegExp object, you just use the pattern from the regular expression:

new RegExp('^(([^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@\"]+(\.[^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@\"]+)*)|(\".+\"))@
((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\])
|(([a-zA-Z\-0-9]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$')

Why do you want to use the new keyword to create a RegExp object, when you already have one?

My program needs to receive notifications when cookies are set in IE and when they are read by websites. Is this possible with a Browser Extension in IE?

Thank you very much

Script question....

Hi.

How can I transform this javascript code

function insRow()
{
var x=document.getElementById('myTable').insertRow(0)
var y=x.insertCell(0)
var z=x.insertCell(1)
y.innerHTML="NEW CELL1"
z.innerHTML="NEW CELL2"
}

Row1 cell1	Row1 cell2
Row2 cell1	Row2 cell2
Row3 cell1	Row3 cell2

so values NEW CELL1 and NEW CELL2 can be inserted by user in two different textboxes.

Firstly the removed in your Insert row button should be onClick. That's the event that gets called when you click the button, and executes your insRow() function.

It not clear to me what you want when you say "so values NEW CELL1 and NEW CELL2 can be inserted by user in two different textboxes".

With onClick instead of removed in your button, the code inserts a two new cells into your table. Are these the two different textboxes you are refering to?

If not then you need to add them to your page, either using javascript or as HTML tags, similar to the way you created the button. Then, assuming that the textboxs you add have ids of textbox1 and textbox2, it's just a matter of adding statements like this to your insRow() function:

textbox1.value = "NEW CELL1";
textbox2.value = "NEW CELL2";

sorry, some nested html messed up my last post about this. Heres my 2nd attempt to post this.
*******************************

Hi,

I have text like this:

text that is very very very long and this text on same line to follow ellipsis

It needs to be displayed in Intenet Explorer like this:

text that is ... and this text on the same line to follow ellipsis.

I have tried div and span tags, all give me the same problem, either the text has a line break after ellipsis, or the text does not break, but there are no ellipsis.

What I've tried:

1.

<nobr><div style="width:30px;display:inline;white-space:nowrap;text-overflow:ellipsis;overflow:hidden;"><nobr>text that is very very long</nobr></div><nobr>and this text on the same line to follow ellipsis</nobr></nobr>

2.

<span style="width:30px;white-space:nowrap;text-overflow:ellipsis;overflow:hidden>text that is very very long</span>and this text on the same line to follow ellipsis

I am trying to avoid doing this on the server to keep it more efficient.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

Try:

<span style="display:inline-block; width:30px; white-space:nowrap; text-overflow:ellipsis; overflow:hidden;">text that is very very long</span> and this text on the same line to follow ellipsis

Note: this will only work in IE. Mozilla does not support either display:inline-block or text-overflow:ellipsis. Opera does support display:inline-block, but not text-overflow:ellipsis, so the first text will be cut off, but there will be no ellipsis between it and the second text.

Activex Controls in IE 6.0

We have used Ocx Controls in the Web Pages. These ocx controls are built in Visual Basic 6.0. These OCX controls are embeded in <object> tags in the ASP Web pages. For the application to run, security settings in the "Internet Options" are defaulted to low and all the options concerning the Activex Controls are enabled. And now when an Internet explorer Update is done all the Activex Controls fail to Load.

Is there any way that we can stay current with the version update of IE and still make Ocx controls to load in the web pages?
if anybody has evolved a workaround to solve the problem of "OCX controls not loading" please reply to the post.

Thanks in advance
