Another weekend, another project, another problem....
Why should a perfectly fine function work only half-way through when
called through onClick in an anchor tag??
The text fade-in script below works when called through onLoad in the
<bodytag, but it "hangs" when called through onClick in <a
href="#">, as follows:
<script language="JavaS cript1.2">
var hex=240;
function FadePage()
{
if (hex>0)
{
hex-=11;
document.getEle mentById("text" ).style.color=" rgb("+hex+","+h ex
+","+hex+")" ;
setTimeout("Fad eText()",20);
}
else
{
hex=240;
}
}
</script>
I have a <divwith an id of "text"...ag ain, it all fades in fine when
called through onLoad in the <bodytag but seems to stall at
setTimeout(...) -- maybe it doesn't even get to it at all; the text
just fades in half-way and stays that way, never completing the fade-
in process.
Now why should that be??
TIA!! 8  2259

I dunno, I've always like useless little details like that!

Hmmm, okay, what do you suspect? If an alert() comes up, before or
after, what of it?

Well, actually, now that you ask...Opera 9 and IE 7 just ignore the
whole thing and display the page, without any fading-in effect...FF 2
is what gets "stalled" like half-way through....

What or where is "FadeText() "? Or did you mean FadePage()?

I said, that you should not specify the javascript version in this tag.
<script language="JavaS cript"is better.

you said, that you have no idea, if the browser reaches this point of
your code. You can test this with a few alerts...

Why? This attribute is deprecated and useless (unless you are writing
for some browsers of ancient times). However, if you want valid markup
you have to provide a type attribute. [1]

I see that now! Goodness, why all this messing around all the time
with depreciating tags and attributes...re minds me of how Microsoft
moves things around in MS Word, etc.

Yes, you are correct: I meant "FadePage ()" -- "FadeText() " is just
another name; sorry for the confusion!

I know, I know: W3C standards compliance. I wonder why they keep
changing these standards, though. Now "type" is the preferred
attribute -- and instead of "text/JavaScript" they will want
"applicatio n/JavaScript" next!
you said, that you have no idea, if the browser reaches this point of
your code. You can test this with a few alerts...
Yes, but then what...I mean, what if it never reaches that point in
the code, and what if it does? What would it mean -- why would
reaching or not reaching that point cause the effect?
I'm trying to figure out what the FF2 browser is "thinking" WRT that
code...IE7 and Opera 9 seem to totally ignore it. Is the code itself
wrong? Why does it work onLoad in the <bodytag but not onClick in
an <a hrefanchor tag??

I've been running some small test programs which seem to indicate

I need to execute a JavaScript function "onload". The only problem is I
don not have access to the <body> tag as it is a part of the standard
page-header include (a separate file). How could I have certain pages
execute my function() onLoad?
The function basically just sets the original values of fields so that I
can determine if a field has been changed or not, which aleviates unnec.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
