Re: Removing horizontal scrollbars from web page using javascript

Reduce the width of your page, and the browser won't show scrollbars. If you want to hide scrollbars, check out the CSS overflow attribute... but your page will still be too wide, and now users won't be able to scroll to see it (well, not with scrollbars at any rate).

you can. in as much as you use a width size that is not that too wide.

you can use a width of like 850px, that might do the magic for you.

cheers!

Brother, you may need to spend more time with your HTML reference. There are a lot of ways you can (intentionally or otherwise) force your page to be wider than it needs to be - large images, and absolute widths on tables or other elements are common - but potentially there are more subtle factors at play here (for instance, a table with two columns, each sized to 50%, may become wider than the viewport if there are borders, margins, or rounding errors in the browser itself). The use of an editing tool such as VWD can make these even more difficult to track down by obfuscating the actual styles in effect.

I recommend simplifying the page HTML as much as possible, to help make the source of the problem more obvious. Also, consider installing the Firebug tool for Firefox - it lets you visually examine the calculated dimensions of each element on the page, and by drilling down with this tool in hand you may be able to more quickly determine all that has contributed to your current predicament.

Ajax in SharePoint 2007. How to make the original error message to show up?

Hello, there,

I am using Ajax in an application page in SharePoint 2007. I found that when there is an exception. Ajax will show a dialog box says " Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message
received from the server could not be parsed.", and the original exception message is not displayed.

I know I can use registerpostbackcontrol() function to register the button that causes the exception to make the original SharePoint error page to show up. But I do not want to do that. Is there any other way to make the original SharePoint exception/error page to show up?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Bin

Import JavaScript in JavaScript File

This is actually trivial. If you were using simple AJAX techniques built directly on XMLHttpRequest. See, that API gives you a handy responseText property that will give you what the server sent back without trying to parse it first.

But you're not. You're using some sort of complicated .NET thing built to conceal the simplicity of XMLHttpRequest. Try the ASP.NET forum[^], or perhaps find a Sharepoint forum. A place where masochists gather and delight in sharing tales of their byzantine workarounds for this baroque platform.

Hi everybody,

I need to call/include/import a JavaScript file (*.js) in another JavaScript (*.js) file. How can i do this.

I tried to do writing a line in script file like:
document.write("");

But this method writes the line to the document so i cannot use/call functions from another files which are stored in different folders.

Thanks for your help.

You're on the right track - but instead of writing to the document, create the <script> element using document.createElement(), set the attributes programatically, and then attach it to the document.

If you want an example... or a robust, ready-to-use implementation... check out the jQuery getScript function[^].

how to enable web content for flash

Script tags aren't parsed in Javascript files. I assume if he knew what needed to be loaded up-front, then he'd put that in the HTML though.

Notification of file downloaded from server

I have a website that allows the file Demo.zip to be copied from the server in the usual line:

Download Demo here

Is there some way that a notification of this copying can be recorded in the server ?

For some people there must be an obvious solution, but not to me !

Thanks,
Raymond Mercier

Unfortunately the code that I wrote in the question

Download Demo <a> href="prog/Demo.zip" here </a>

got treated as an active line.
So I repeat the question, is there some way that a notification of this copying can be recorded in the server ?

For some people there must be an obvious solution, but not to me !

Thanks,

a solution could be controlling download by code not by just referring to it, for example by a separate download page or using Response object to write the file, search for it and you will find many resources like this http://aspalliance.com/259[^]

Thanks, but I have had a look at the site you mention, and can't see how it helps.
I am looking for some kind of log file in the server which would record the fact that the file has actually been downloaded from the server to the client. I feel that if I knew something about asp I would know the answer.
