javascript working in Chrome, but no in other browsers

nocuser · 03-11-2010, 12:14 PM

Hi people, I have the followin code:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<BODY>
<script id=url language=javascript src=""></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("url").src = "http://www.mysite.com/mypage.aspx";
</script>
</body>
</html>

This code is working fine with Chrome, but it doesn't for other browser (IE, Firefox, Opera)... I've not been able to find where the problem is... IE gives me an error: internet explorer could not open the website. Operation aborted. The other browsers don't show any message.
Could you help me with this?
Thanks,

You document needs a Doctype. Attributes values need double quoted. language is deprecated, use type="text/javascript" instead of language=javascript. You should rather use a function called onload. Finally, I don't see the point of your code.

Thanks kor, this code is an example, my code is a bit more complex than it... but I wanted to put a simple code where everybody could see the problem.
Anyway, the problem with IE is already happening...

Then, please follow the instructions from Kor and repost your modified code, so that we can test in the specified browsers.

The modified code is:

<script id="test" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("test").src = "http://www.mysite.com/mypage.aspx?&var1=value&var2=value2";

</script>

Mypage.aspx returns some code depending on the variables, that code may open another .aspx file for example.

Now, the previous script is working for all the browsers, except IE...

The error might not be in the way you are linking the script, but in the script itself. Could you post the generated script by that url?

The code returned is:

Code:

document.write("<SCRIPT> function openWindow(programa) 
				{ var omenu = window.open(programa, \"\", \"width=500,height=500,left=20,top=20,scrollbars=no,menubar=no,toolbar=no,resizable=no,directories=no\"); 
					omenu.focus(); }; 
				</script>
				<a href=javascript:openWindow(\"http://www.mysite.com/mypage.aspx?&var1=val1&var2=val2\")> 	
					<img src=http://www.mysite.com/icons/image.png></a>")

Thanks,
