Firefox 1.0.7
If I launch Jesse Ruderman's Javascript shell http://www.squarefree.com/2005/10/30...ript-shell-14/
on any web page and type in the shell
var mylink
for (j=0;j<document .links.length;j ++) {
mylink=document .links[j];
if (mylink.href.ma tch(/something/)) {
mylink.href="#" ;
mylink.onClick= "alert('clicked ');return false;";
}
}
I expected all my links having "something" in them to now popup my
alert box.
But nothing happened, no errors in the Javascript console, nothing
happens when I click on those links.
What gives?
Thanks 5 2030

Links don't have an onClick attribute.
They do have an onclick attribute, but it should be assigned a
reference to a function, not a string value.

So how would I modify my snippet above to do what I want it to do?

You change onClick in your code to onclick

You could try:
var mylink
for (var j = 0; j<document.link s.length; j++) {
mylink = document.links[j];
if (mylink.href.ma tch(/something/)) {
mylink.href = "#";
mylink.onclick = function() {
alert("clicked" );
return false;
}

I have hyperlink, <a class='navbar'

What I want to be able to do is jump to calendars.net/colchestercamra/#month,
where I use JavaScript to set up the month.
Could I use an 'onclick' to set up the properties of the <a> tag just before
it jumps? I can't use window.location, as this currently remains static
(using frames I'm afraid!).
