Is "doctype" related to or contain javascript or any other programming language ?
Q. Hello, I am participating in a web desiging competition where javascript and other scripting languages are not allowed. So is there any problem with declaring a DOCTYPE declaration ?please help me
Asked by - Sat Oct 15 12:32:47 2011 - Programming & Design - 3 Answers - Comments
A. Well I don't use the DOCTYPE but what it mainly does is it tells what type of a web page it is going to display, with out the doctype it will have a default to display. If you debugging your website on a computer then it is most likely not needed. if your website is mainly for mobile users the you will need to declare the doctype. Overall it is not related to javascript or anykind of programming. It simply tells the web browser what kind of a web page to display

How do you manually turn on "javascript" on the computer?
Q. I have a 2006 desktop and for some reason, it won't play videos or songs on my space and it says either I need a new version of Java (which I already downloaded and it's ready to go) or I have javascript turned off. How do I turn it back on? We have windows XP.
Asked by Lindsey & Jackson - Fri Nov 30 18:36:27 2007 - Desktops - 4 Answers - Comments
A. Start, control panel, internet options, advanced. Scroll down to "Java" and check-mark the box for Java script. If using Firefox, open the browser, go to tools, options, content, and check the box.

What are javascript floating points and the "parsefloat" statement?
Q. I've read this passage and don't understand it. "The parse Float() function parses a string and returns a floating point number. This function determines if the first character in the specified string is a number. If it is, it parses the string until it reaches the end of the number, and returns the number as a number, not as a string." Can someone please explain what floating point number means, as well as the word parse. If you could explain why the parsefloat statement actually does in simple terms that's be great as well. Many thanks.

A. Say you had a text variable with a value of "5.02", using parsefloat on it would return a numeric variable with a value of 5.02 so you can use it like a number (add to it, subtract, times etc.)

How do you use the "onmouseover" Javascript event-handler to highlight an image?
Q. I want to use an image as a link, and have been searching for code to change the color of the border and / or entire image onmouseover... I have seen some Javascript examples to change the opacity of an image onmouseover, but not to put a color-filter over the image (to shade the entire image blue, or border blue, onmouseover for example). Does anyone have a link to a tutorial on this stuff, or can anyone post the code please?
Asked by Ian - Fri Jul 17 00:01:47 2009 - Programming & Design - 1 Answers - Comments
A. Set onmouseover to "change Image();". To change the image: function change Image(){ document.get Element By Id ('the_image').src = "whatever.jpg"; } To change the border of the image: function change Image(){ document.get Element By Id ('the_image').style.border Color = "blue"; } Delete the carriage return before ('the_image'). You can't "shade" an image blue with Javascript. You will have to make a blue version of the image and have the src change to that image when the mouse is moved over it.
