javascript function not working when script "language" attribute is changed to "type"

198 New Member

When change the <script language="javas cript"> to <script type="text/javascript">, javascript function now works no more. Previously it was working. Javascript function is given below -

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 function log1()

{

  window.location="log1.asp"

}

function page1()

{

  window.location="page1.asp"

}

and place where calling this function are below -

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <font style="position:absolute;left:300; top:400">

  <input type="button" style="width:100px" value="Login" onclick="log1()">

</font> 

<font style="position:absolute;left:300; top:450">

  <input type="button" style="width:100px" value="Back" onclick="page1()">

</font>

Where is the problem?

Thanks and regards,
Vikas

Try using window.location .href.

Just a note: there's no need to use font tags. Replace them with div tags.

I changed the code as follows -

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 function log1()

{

  window.location.href="log1.asp"

}

Still it is not working.

Should I not use <font> tag for placing text in browser? Is there any difference between <font> and <div> for placing text?

Thanks and regards,

Show the rest of your code.

The font tag is deprecated. You should use CSS for styling. Here you're not placing text within the font tags, you were just displaying buttons.

If I've understood correctly from your ASP code, if the session variable is not set, only the following code is displayed in the browser (after the script tags):
[html]<h2><font style="position :absolute;left: 250;top:250">Se ssion has been expired. Re-login please.</font></h2>
<div style="position :absolute;left: 300; top:400">
<input type="button" style="width:10 0px" value="Login" onclick="log1() ">
</div>
<div style="position :absolute;left: 550; top:400">
<input type="button" style="width:10 0px" value="Exit" onclick="window .close();">
</div> [/html]Is that correct?

If you check the error console, there are errors in the validate_form() function. There's an extra bracket and break; is not needed.

I would add one more thing: validate your markup using the W3C validator. At the moment, it's horribly invalid. Also, add a doctype to the top of your pages.

Hi all, I was trying to make an image submit button with a rollover and discovered to my suprise that there is no way to access a form element of the "image" type.
