Re: [WSG] injecting an extra hook with javascript
I completely dooced the onload. If you're using one of the infamous addEvent methods, you could just do this: addEvent(window,'load',insertSpan); Dustin On 11/2/05, Anders Nawroth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > James Gollan skrev: > > > You mentioned that you wanted to be able to see it when you view the > > source - is that important? > > > http://jennifermadden.com/scripts/ViewRenderedSource.html > > FF extension to see the rendered source ! > > /AndersN > ** > The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ > > See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm > for some hints on posting to the list & getting help > ** > > ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **

I don't know much about this but that strikes me as potentially separating content and behaviour a little bit more...? (Heh, even if this is to achieve content... but it's a good thing because it means less redundant code, I guess!) Also var util = document.getElementById('utilities'); should be var util = document.getElementById('utility'); according to Peter's original markup. Just thought I'd point that out. regards, Josh -- Joshua Street http://www.joahua.com/ +61 (0) 425 808 469 ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **

You mentioned that you wanted to be able to see it when you view the source - is that important? Because you wont *see* the span element but the browser will. (I imagine you are doing this for an image replacement technique in which case not seeing it wouldn't be a big issue). Remember you need to call the function, for example Dustin Diaz wrote: function insertSpan() { if ( !document.getElementById || !document.createElement ) { return; } var util = document.getElementById('utilities'); var links = util.getElementsByTagName('a'); for ( i=0;i wrote: just say i have markup like this: -- List Item List Item List Item - and for one reason or another I *dont* have access to the html markup.

[WSG] injecting an extra hook with javascript
just say i have markup like this: -- - and for one reason or another I *dont* have access to the html markup. Then an intricate design comes along that requires an extra hook (a span tag) to be inserted inside each tag. is it possible to use _javascript_ (1) to insert a tag inside each a href "on the fly" so its not in the markup - but would be there if you were able to view the rendered source? you know what i mean - dynamically changing the dom... or something can you tell i know nothing about _javascript_? :) any help appreciated. cheers, pete (1) - of course, without _javascript_ list items would still be accessible - they just wouldnt have the nice design inticacies
