Currently got a piece of code that executes a javascript functionailty on a hyperlink....

 

Link

 

Works fine, but i want to refresh two documents at once, one after another e.g.

 

Link

 

Now am i using the right syntax to run to lines of javascript? I hate the effing thing, i thought you just used an end of line declaration eg ';' between each bit of code but its different in hyperlinks you have to put javascript: at the beginning

 

Anyone?????

Yeah the problem is you cant call two functions from a href, you need to create a new Sub or function and within that sub / function do this:

 

Function RefreshPages()

 

{

loadXMLDoc('menu.php','menu');

loadXMLDoc('aContact Us.php','browse');

}

End Function

 

Then simply call the RefreshPages Sub from within the href like so.

Please note, the syntax isnt 100% but the logic is correct :hyper:

I had the very same idea myself, tried it but the problem is that its controlling an ajax script. Think i have to write a delay in there between executing the first and second one otherwise it doesn't do anything.

 

Cheers matey, i'll let you know the finished solution

href won't allow two functions to be called but onMouseOver and other variants do, would that be any help? you can also call the same function twice using this method so should be useful.

 

just put a "#" in your href :)

failing that, put a refresh script in the function you are calling and pass a parameter to it!

Tried adding a wait loop while it writes out the contents of the Xhttp request layer before executing the next update function but all it does is execute the second one. This is doing my head in now :( :headvswal :headvswal :headvswal :headvswal :headvswal :headvswal

did you try what i said mate?

Yeah, thanks for the suggestion matey. its not that that's the problem now, i created a javascript function to call the two functions from that BUT for some reason it doesn't let the first call finish it just does the second, so i tried writing a delay in there to let it finish, tried using ifs and timechecks but still only completes one and one only.

 

Looks like i'm going to have to write a queing function to only allow the 2nd one to process after the first has finished somehow

 

Bugger :(

but if you use a mouseOver call it should process both before I would have thought! though I can't check without the code :) if it doesn't, ignore me!

 

your delay sounds like an odd solution, that's all!

ah i just re-read what you wrote! hmm, my suggestion will be a big pile of *****cks :D

 

write the second function into the first then just call the first!
