DZone Snippets: opera code http://snippets.dzone.com/posts Fri, 25 Jul 2008 07:34:13 GMT DZone Snippets: opera code JavaScript Fill Textarea from HTML Select not working with FireFox or Opera but does in IE6 http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/4465 // <br />// Fill textarea with keywords from HTML Select element <br />// <br /> <br />This code DOES work in I.E6 (on my machine (XP pro), but doesn't work in Firefox 2.0.0.4 or Opera 9.0.2 <br /> <br />The idea is to be able to either type in the text area directly or choose from a list of saved words in the select box. When a new choice is made from the select, it automatically gets inserted into the text area. <br /> <br />With Firefox , when the page is first loaded, I can choose from the select control and it works until I type something in the text area, and then it stops working. <br /> <br />With Opera 9.02, the select control doesn't work at all. <br /> <br />IE6, works fine. <br /> <br />Any hints tips, appreciated, as I'm a novice with javascript / DOM programming. <br /> <br />I quite possibly am not using the most correct / efficient document.XXX calls here. <br /> <br /> <br />Mike <br /> <br />You can test it at http://mstramba.com/fb5.html <br /> <br />/////////////// <br /><code> <br /><html> <br /><head> <br /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <br /> <style type="text/css">textarea { height:200px; width:50%;}</style> <br /> <br /><script type="text/javascript"> <br /> <br />function htmlData(selectValue,targetTextArea) <br />{ <br />// alert("select box changed to : '" + selectValue + "'"); <br /> <br /> var txtNode=document.createTextNode(selectValue); <br /> var textArea=document.getElementById(targetTextArea); <br /> textArea.appendChild(txtNode); <br />} <br /></script> <br /></head> <br /> <br /><body> <br /> <form method="post"> <br /> <select name="country" id="selbox" onchange="htmlData(this.value,'content')" /> <br /> <option value="#">-Select-</option> <br /> <option value="SuperCaliFragilisticExpiAliDocius">SuperCaliFragilisticExpiAliDocius</option> <br /> <option value="Discombombulatively">Discombombulatively</option> <br /> <option value="I don't understand how this can be happening">I don't understand how this can be happening</option> <br /> </select> <br /> <br /> <textarea name="content" id="content">Type some text or choose words from the select control</textarea> <br /> <br /> <input type="submit" /> <br /></form> <br /></body> <br /></html> <br /></code> Fri, 24 Aug 2007 23:38:44 GMT http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/4465 mstram (Mike Stramba) Babelfish translate http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/4265 Ok, so maybe some of you might think that Babelfish's the best translator out there. I don't know about that , but I do know where my towel is ;) <br />So, boys and girls, here's the bookmarklet that allows to translate your current web-page using the babelfish translation engine. <br /> <br /><code> <br />javascript:location.href='http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr?trurl='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+'&lp=%s&btnTrUrl=Translate' <br /></code> <br /> <br />To make it useful, save it as a bookmark in FF (or as a new search engine in Opera) and give it a keyword/shortcut by editing the bookmark's properties in FF (or the search properties in Opera). Let's call him, say 'bf', that should do it. <br /> <br />Here are some examples: <br /><code> <br />bf en_fr <br />bf fr_en <br />bf en_ja <br /></code> <br /> <br />Enjoy! <br />G.R.

When you terminate your opera session, the batch will commit the changes you made to your profile during the opera session. <br /> <br /><code> <br /> REM OperaSync.bat <br /> @echo off <br /> <br /> set PRG=Opera <br /> set TARGET=%APPDATA%/%PRG%/%PRG%/profile <br /> set EXEC=%PROGS%/%PRG%/%PRG%.exe <br /> set REPO=https://********.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/%PROG%Sync <br /> set USER=************* <br /> <br /> echo Checking out from %REPO% ... <br /> svn checkout %REPO% "%TARGET%" --username %USER% <br /> echo %PROG% running ... <br /> %EXEC% <br /> echo Commiting to %REPO% ... <br /> svn commit -m --force-log "%TARGET%" <br /> echo Done. <br /> <br /> @echo on <br /></code> <br /> <br />Here's the list of files that I update from a svn repo for my Opera profile <br /><code> <br />contacts.adr <br />files.txt <br />jscripts/ <br />jscripts/deliciousmp3.js <br />notes.adr <br />opcacrt6.dat <br />opcert6.dat <br />opera6.adr <br />search.ini <br />sessions/ <br />sessions/autosave.win <br />sessions/autosave.win.bak <br />speeddial.ini <br /></code> <br /> Thu, 28 Jun 2007 18:47:19 GMT http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/4219 griflet (guillaume riflet)
