Re: [DQSD-Users] establishing pattern for unique url per date
Hi Shawn,
I have been playing with your code and learning about Ajax. It works
great for IE, but I have been trying to make it work for Firefox.
I replace your
var xmlHttp = new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XmlHttp);
with
var xmlHttp = createRequestObject();
where :
function createRequestObject() {
var request;
try {
request = new ActiveXObject(Msxml2.XMLHTTP);
} catch(e) {
try {
request = new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XMLHTTP);
} catch(f) {
request = null;
}
}
if(!request typeof XMLHttpRequest != undefined) {
request = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
return request;
}
It still works with IE, but not with Firefox, watching with venkman it
gets to
request = new XMLHttpRequest();
But when Open is called it fires the catch error handler. Have not been
able to figure this out yet. Any experience with doing this for Firefox?
Cheers, Tom.

RE: [DQSD-Users] establishing pattern for unique url per date
Hi Tom,
I am working on a search for the daily static...I am
trying to figure out the pattern they use to come up
with the name so I can compose it given the date.
I would just use an XmlHttp hit the first time, pattern match uf*.gif,
and then a second request for the image. This is some code I've migrated
from one of my homebrew samples. Save it as a new htm file:
'//
html
head
title Test /title
script language=javascript
var ksRoot = http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/;;
function showImage( sImage ){
var s = '';
try{
//attempt to obtain the content
var sUrl = http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=; +
sImage;
var xmlHttp = new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XmlHttp);
xmlHttp.open(GET, sUrl, false);
xmlHttp.send();
//get the response content from the remote site
var sBody = xmlHttp.responseText;
var rx = /(\/archives\/[0-9a-zA-Z]+\/uf[\d]+\.gif)/g;
//3456789`123456789`123456789`123456789`123456789`123456789`123456789`
var r; var i = 0;

sParsed = r[1];

sParsed = sParsed.substr(1);
