AJAX Tabs Content Script Question

**takuhii** · 08-17-2006, 08:00 AM

1) Script Title: Ajax Tabs Content

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...axtabscontent/

3) Describe problem:
I'm using the REV attribute as defined in the tutorial to specify outside JS and CSS files, but any script called into the AJAX tab area is failing to execute. I have a JS vertical scrolling script that IS essential to one of my tabs and it will not run when called via the tab. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HTML CODE:

Have a look here, if nothing else, to get an idea why it doesn't work:

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=11098

To make a long story short, the rev attribute only loads scripts onto the 'top' page, it doesn't initialize them. A method must be worked out to do this at an appropriate time after the external content has loaded. One such method was devised for the above thread which has many similarities to your case but some differences. To be of more specific help, I would need a link to your live page.

I have read a few hours worth on this forum and need more help. I am sorry if it sounds like I haven't researched this...I have and am stumped.

I would like for the loaded .htm files loaded dynamically via the TOP page, to be able to manipulate the variables declared on the top page.

with flash actionscript this would be a simple call to the _root and to drill down and go...but javascript loads and executes differently obviously..

I read over this link 20 times and got nowhere with it...

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=17426

I would like a simple example of code below to have the external.htm files have a very simple javascript excecute when they appear in the box.

So on the top page I would like to declare

var variableToChangeEachTime = "Not Changed Yet";

Then on the included .htm pages below I would like to be able to say

<script>
variableToChangeEachTime = "NameOfloadedPage";
</script>

And have that variable update dynamically inside a text area without having to refresh the page.

THERE are many 'similar' examples to this on this forum, all of which are complicated enough to where I could not make them work.

I have attached my efforts as well....

THANKS for your help!

I attached the two relevant files as txt so they would upload...they are htm files

Code:

<ul id="maintab" class="shadetabs">
<li class="selected"><a href="#default" rel="ajaxcontentarea">Intro</a></li>
<li><a href="external.htm" rel="ajaxcontentarea" onmouseover="if(!window.acInit){onloadfunct();window.acInit=true;};" onmousedown="window.acInit=false;">Bird</a></li>
<li><a href="external2.htm" rel="ajaxcontentarea">Dog</a></li>
<li><a href="external3.htm" rel="ajaxcontentarea">Cat</a></li>
<li><a href="external4.htm" rel="ajaxcontentarea">Sea Otter</a></li>
</ul>
