How would I enumerate all the scripts available to a web page?

[Angus]

Hello

I have a web page which uses a js file on the server. I cannot see all the
javascript functions available to me in the html. I would like to have a
function which could print eg to a DIV section, all the available functions.
Just the function names is fine.

Is there any way to do this in javascript?

Why not download the js.file and read it in notepad?

Yes I realise I can do that. I am trying to automate some web pages and
need to be able to enumerate javascript functions available programmatically
(well via javascript).

Is there some sort of script collection? Or some way of enumerating the
javascript objects programmatically?

TRY this:

function FuncList(DIV){
for(var funcs in window)
if(typeof(window[funcs])=="function"){
var tnode=document.createTextNode(funcs)
DIV.appendChild(tnode)
}
}

the above will print all the global functions.

I tried this:

for(var funcs in window)
{
var fnode=document.getElementById(DIV);
fnode.appendChild(document.createTextNode(funcs + ' '));
}
}

Output was:
onbeforeunload onafterprint top location parent
offscreenBuffering frameElement onerror screen event
clipboardData onresize defaultStatus onblur window onload
onscroll screenTop onfocus Option length onbeforeprint frames
self clientInformation external screenLeft opener onunload
document closed history Image navigator status onhelp name

But none of my javascript functions. I tried also for (var funcs in
document) but didn't give me what I wanted.

I need the list of javascript function names.

No that this helps you find userfunctions,

Yes, why no testttttttttttttttttt() in the list?

Yes, why no testttttttttttttttttt() in the list?

It does work in Firefox, so perhaps IE just doesn't add the user functions
to the same [window] object we expect...

btw, havn't got IE7 handy right now but have you tried:

d.appendChild(document.createTextNode(window.f + '\u00A0'));

It gets stranger and stranger... check the differences between FF and IE

<div id=d><br></div>
<hr>
<div id=e><br></div>
<script type='text/javascript'>

function testttttttttttttttttt(){ alert(0); };

var d=document.getElementById('d');
for(var f in window)
d.appendChild(document.createTextNode(window.f + ' '));

var e=document.getElementById('e');
for(var f in document)
e.appendChild(document.createTextNode(window.f + ' '));
// the window object exposes the document enumerations?
</script>

This works in IE7,
[FF does not recognize document.scripts]
and is the best I can do for the OP:

================================================== =====
<div id=e><br></div>

<script type='text/javascript' id=firstScript>
function testttttttttttttttttt(){ alert(0); };
function brrrrrrrrrrrrr(){ alert(0); };

</script>
<script type='text/javascript'>

var z = ''
for(var f=0;f<document.scripts.length;f++ ){
z += '\n==========================\n'
+ document.scripts[f].innerHTML
}
document.getElementById('e').innerText = z

</script>
================================================== ======

That is good. I must say.... But.

It doesn't display the function defined in a .js file on the server.
Or at least in my IE6 it doesn't.

I would like to be able to view ALL the javascript functions.

There is a product called debugbar - www.debugbar.com which can
achieve this. It is an Internet Explorer BHO. Not sure how they do
it but they can. So there must be a way.

Not from within a webpage. A plugin has a lot more leeway than a webpage
does.
